12.

A spent fuel cask or heavy loads exceeding 110 percent of the weight TS 3.10-4 of a fuel assembly (not including fuel handling tool) shall not be moved over spent fuel, and only one spent fuel assembly will be handled at one time over the reactor or the spent fuel pit.

13. A spent fuel cask shall not be moved into the Fuel Building unless the Cask Impact Pads are in place on the bottom of the spent fuel pool.

B. If any one of the specified limiting conditions for refueling is not met, refueling of the reactor shall cease, work shall be initiated to correct the conditions so that the specified limit is met, and no operations which increase the reactivity of the core shall be made.

C. After initial fuel loading and after each core refueling operation and prior to reactor operation at greater than 75% of rated power, the movable incore detector system shall be utilized to verify proper power distribution.

Basis Detailed instructions, the above specified precautions and the design of the fuel handling equipment, which incorporates built-in interlocks and safety

• features, provide assurance that an accident, which would result in a hazard to public health and safety, will not occur during refueling operations.

When no change is being made in core geometry, one neutron detector is
