3/4.0 APPLICABILITY.

BASES The specifications of this section provide the general requirements applicable to each of the Limiting Conditions for Operation and Surveil-lance Requirements within Section 3/4.

3.0.1 This specification states 'the applicability of each specifi-cation in terms of defined OPERATIONAL CONDITION and is provided to Jelineate specifically when each specification is applicab'.e.

3.0.2 This specification defines those conditions necessary to constitute compliance with the ten s of an individucl Limiting Condition for Operation and associated ACTION requirement.

3.0.3 This specification delineates the ACTION to be taken for circumstances not directly provided for in the ACTION statements and whose occurrence would violate the intent of the specification.

For example,

Specification 3.5.1 calls for the HPCI to be OPERABLE and specifies explicit requirements if it become inoperahle.

Under the terms of Specifi-cation 3.0.3 if the required additional systems are not OPEPABLE, the facility is to be placed in HDT SHUTDOWN within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and be in

^0LD SHUTD0'."' within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

The unit shall be brought to j

-0T SHUID0'.7, and COLD SHUTDOVi within the required times by pronptly initiating and carrying out an orderly shutdown.

It is intended that thi o cuidance also apply whenever an ACTION statement requires a unit to be in (at least) STARTUP within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> or in (at least) HOT SHUTDOWN within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

3.0.4 This specif;;ation provides that entry into an OPERABLE CONDITIO',' mus t be m34 vi th (a) the full complement of required systens, equipment or components CPERAELE and (b) all other parameters as specified in the Limiting Conditions for Operation being met without regard for allowable deviations and out of service provisions contained in the ACTION statements.

The intent of this provision is to insure that facility operaticn is not initiated with either required equipment or systens inoperable or other linits being exceeded.

F>ceptions to this prevision have been provided for a limited number af specifications when startuo with inoperable equipment would not af fect alant safety.

These exceptions are stated in the ACTION statements of the

ppropriate specifi;aticns.

_ APPLICABILITY BASE 5 4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to insure the Limiting Conditions for Opera *. ion are met and will be perfomed during the OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS for which the Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable.

Provisions for additional surveil-lance activities to be performed without regard to the applicable OPERA-TIONAL CONDITIONS are provided in the individual Surveillance Requirements.

4.0.2 The provisions of this specification provide allowable toler-ances for performing surveillance activities beyond those specified in the nominal surveillance interval. These tolerances are necessary to provide operational flexibility because of scheduling and perfomance considerations.

The phra:c "at least" associated with a surveillance frequency does not negate this allowable tolerarne value and permits the performance of more frequent surveillance activities.

The tolerance values, taken either individually or consecutively over three test intervals, are sufficiently restrictive to ensure that the reliability associated with tbe surveilla'nce activity is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the nominal specified interval.

4.0.3 The provisions of this specification set forth the criteria for deterrination of compliance with the OPERABILITY requirements of the Limiting Conditions for Operation.

Under this criteria, equipment, systems or components are assumed to be OPERABLE if the associated surveil-lance activities have been Latisf actorily performed within the specified tire interval.

Nothin; in this provision is to be construed as defining equipment, systems or components OPERABLE, when such items are found or known to be inoperable although still meeting the Surveillance Requiremr.its.

4.0.4 This specification ensures that surveillance activities associated with a Limiting Condition for Operation have been performed within the specified time interval prior to entry into an applicable CONDITION, The intent of this provision is to ensure that surveillance activities have been satisfactorily demonstrated on a current basis as required to meet the OPERABILITY requirements of the Liniting Condition for Operation.
