SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirements vwy throughout core life as a function of fuel depletion, RCS boron concen.

In the analysis of this accident,

== a minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN of 1.6% ak/k is in.tially e cmaired to control the reactivity transient. Accordingly, the SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirement . =.. is based upon this limitNg condition and is consistent with FSAR safety analysis assumotions.

3/4.1 REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.1.4 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC) (Continued) The MTC values of this specification are applicable to a specific set of plant conditions; accordingly, verification of MTC values at conditions other than those explicitly stated will require extrapolation to those conditions in order to permit an accurate comparison. The most negative MTC value equivalent to the most positive moderator density coefficient (MDC), was obtained by incrementally correcting the MDC used in the FSAR analyses to nominal operating conditions. These corrections involved subtracting the incremental changes in the MDC associated with a core condition of all rods inserted (most positive MDC) to an all rods withdrawn condition and, a conversion for the rate of change of moderator density with temperature at RATED THERMAL POWER conditions. This valge of the MDC was then transformed into the limiting -4 MTC value - 3.8 x 10 ok/k/ F. The MTC value of -2.9 x 10 ak/k/ F represents a conservative value (with corrections for burnup and soluble boron) at a core condition of 300 ppm equilibrium boron concentration and is obtgined by making these corrections to the limiting MTC value -3.8 x 10 k/k/ f, The surveillance requirements for measurement of the MTC at the beginning and near the end of the fuel cycle are adequate to confirm that the MTC remains with its limits since this coefficient changes slowly due principally to the reduction in RCS boron concentration associated with fuel burnup. 3/4.1.1,6 MINIMUM TEMPERATURE FOR CRITICALITY This specification ensures that the reactor will not be made critical with the Reactor Coolant System average temperature less than 541 F. This limitation is required to ensure 1) the moderator temperature coefficient is within its analyzed temperature range, 2) the protective instrumentation is within its normal operating range, 3) the P-12 interlock is above its setpoint, 4) the pressurizer is capable of being in an OPEFABLE status with a steam bubble, and 5) the reactor pressure vessel is above its minimum RTNDT temperature. g g 31# SALEM - UNIT 1 B 3/4 1-2 Amendment No.16 h.

REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.2 BORAT10N SYSTEMS The boron injection system ensures that negative reactivity control is available during each mode of facility operation. The components required to perform this function include 1) borated water sources, 2) charging pumps, 3) separate flow paths, 4) boric acid transfer pumps, 5) associated heat tracing systems, and 6) an emergency power supply from OPERABLE diesel generators. With the RCS average temperature above 200 F, a minimum of two separate and redundant boron injection systems are provided to ensure single functional capability in the event an assumed failure renders one of the systems inoperable. Allowable Nt-of-service periods ensure that minor component repair or corrective action may be completed without undue risk to overall facility safety from injcction system failures during the repair period. The boration capability of either system is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN from all operating conditions of 1.6% ok/k after xenon decay and cooldown to 200 F. The maximum boration capability requirement occurs at E0L from full power equilibrium xenon conditions and requires 5106 gallons of 20,100 ppm borated water from the boric acid storage tanks or 75,000 gallons of 2000 ppm borated water f rom the refueling water storage tank. However, to be consistent with the ECCS requirements, the RWST is required to have a minimum contained volume of 350,000 gallons 3 during operations in MODES 1, 2, 3 and 4. With the RCS temperature below 200 F, one injection system is l' acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional restric-tions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable. i-The boron capability required below 200 F is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN of 1% ak/k after xenon decay and cooldown from 200 F to 140'F. This condition requires either 835 gallons of 20,100 ppm borated water from the boric acid storage tanks or 9690 gallons of 2000 ppm borated water from the refueling water storage tank. The contained water volume limits include allowance for water not available because of discharge line location and other physical SGZ1) characteristics. The OPERABILITY of one boron injection system during REFUELING ensures that this system is available for reactivity control while in MODE 6. p_ SALEM - UNIT 1 B 3/4 1-3 Amendment No. 16

t REACTIVITY CGNTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are maintained, (2) the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) limit the potential effects of a rod ejection accident. OPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is required to determine control rod positions and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment and' insertion limits. The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the triginal criteria are met. Misalignment of a rod requires measure-ment of peaking factors or a restriction in THERMAL POWER; either of these restrictions provide assurance of fuel rod integrity during continued The reactivity worth of a misaligned rod is limited for the operation. remainder of the fuel cycle to prevent exceeding the assumptions used in ~ the accident analysis. The maximum rod drop time restriction is consistent with the assumed rod drop time used in the accident analyses. Measurement with Tavg 2.541'F and with all reactor coolant pumps operating ensures that the measured drop times will be representative of insertion times experienced during a reactor trip at operating conditions. I Control rod positions and OPERABILITY of the rod position indicators are required to be verified on a nominal basis of once per 12 hours with more frequent verifications required if an automatic monitoring channel

. ~.., 3/4.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES The specifications of this section provide assurance of fuel integ-rity during Condition I (Normal Operation) and II (Incidents of Moderate Frequency) events oy: (a) maintaining the minimum DNBR in the core > 1.30 during normal operation and in short term transients, and (b) limiting the fission gas release, fuel pellet temperature and cladding mechanical properties to within assumed design criteria. In addition, limiting the peak linear power density during Condition I events provides assurance that the initial conditions assumed for the LOCA analyses are met and the ECCS acceptance criteria limit of 2200 F is not exceeded. The definitions of hot channel factors as used in these specifi-cations are as follows: F (Z) Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor, is defined as the maximum local 0 heat flux on the surface of a fuel rod at core elevation Z divided by the average fuel rod heat flux, allowing for man-ufacturing tolerances on fuel pellets and rods. F Nuclear Enthalpy Rise Hot Channel Factor, is defined as the g ratio of the integral of linear power along the rod with the highest integrated power to the average rod power. 3/4.2.1 AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE (AFD) The lim.ts on AXI AL FLUX DIFFERENCE assure that the F (Z) upper n bound envelope of 2.32 times the normalized axial peaking Yactor is not 1. exceeded during either normal operati n or in the event of xenon redis-a tribution following power changes. Target flux difference is determined at equilibrium xenon conditions. The full length rods may be positioned within the core in accordance with their respective insertion limits and should be inserted near their normal position for steady state operation at high power levels. The value of the target flux difference obtained under these conditions ser divided by the fraction of RATED THERMAL POWER is the target flux g7-difference at RATED THERMAL POWER for the associated core burnup

5 conditions. Target flux differences for other THERMAL POWER levels are obtained by multiplying the RATED THERMAL POWER value by the appropriata

~~ fractional THERMAL POWER level. The periodic updating of the target flux difference value is necessary to reflqct core burnup considerations. 565313 J SALEM - UNIT 1 B 3/4 2-1 Amendment No.16

POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES Although it is intended that the plant will be operated with the AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE within the +5% target band about the target flux difference, during rapid plant THERMAL POWER reductions, control rod motion will cause the AFD to dcviate outside of the target band at re-duced THERMAL POWER levels. This deviation will not affect the xenon redistribution sufficiently to change the envelope of peaking factors which may be reached on a subsequent return to RATED THERMAL P0hER (with the AFD within the target band) provided the time duration of the devi-ation is limited. Accordingly, a 1 hour penalty deviation limit cumJ-lative during the previous 24 hours is provided for operation outside of the target band but within the limits of Figure 3.2-1 while at THERMAL POWER levels between 50% and 90% of RATED THERMAL POWER. For THERMAL POWER levels between 15% and 50% of rated THERMAL POWER, deviations of the AFD outside of the target band are less significant. The penTity of 2 hours actual time reflects this reduced significance. Provisions for monitoring the AFD are derived from the plant nuclear instrumentation system through the AFD Monitor Alarm. A control room recorder continuously displays the auctioneered high flux difference and the target band limits as a function of power level. A first alarm is received any time the auctioneered high flux difference exceeds the target band limits. A second alarm is received if the AFD exceeds its allowable limits for a cumulative time of one hour during any 24 hour + - - time period starting with the occurrence of the first alarm. Time out-side the target band is graphica.y presented on the strip chart. r Figure B 3/4 2-1 shows a typical monthly target band. sa r 565314 SALEM - UNIT 1 B 3/4 2-2 . me n

2.0 LIMITlh; CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 2.1 T HERMAL 2.1. l a MAXIMUM T ACROS5 CONDENSER DURING NORMAL OPERATION Ctjective To limit thermal stress to the aquatic ecosystem by limiting the maximum L '. across the condenser during normal operation. Speci fication The maximum AT across the condchser shall not exceed 16.5 F during normal operation with all six circulating water pumps operating. In the event that the specification is exceeded corrective action shall be taken to reduce the iT to within specification. Such corrective action could include cleaning condenser water box;s er re, duction of unit power level, unless an emergency need for power exists. Monitoring Requi rerent The temperature differential across the condenser shall be monitored every hour utilizing the computer prir. tout of the intake and discharge temperature measurements. The intake temperature is measured at each of the two inlets to each condenser shell. The discharge temperature is measured .t a point downstream of the condenser in each of the two 84-inch ID discharge lines from each condenser shell. Instrumentation accuracy is +0.5 F between the range of 32 F and 150 F. If the plant computer is out of service, the intake and discharge temperatures shall b3 monitored every two hours utilizing local reading instrumentation until the plant computer is returned to service. 565319 2.1-1 Amendment No.16

2. Tne maximur ai across the condenser shall not exceed 16.5'F for more than 72 consecutive hours for reasons of pump failure. 3. At no time will the aT across the condenser exceed 27.5 F. In the event that either specification is exceeded, corrective action shall be taken to reduce the aT to within specification. Such correc-tive action could include cleaning condenser water boxes or reduction of limit power level, unless an emergency need for power exists. Monitoring Requi rement The temperature differential across the condenser shall be monitored every hour utilizing the computer printout of the intake and discharge ter@erature measurements. The intake temperature is measured at each of the two inlets to each condenser shell. The discharge temperature is measured at a point downstream of the condenser in each of the two 84-inch ID discharge lines from each condenser shell. Instrumentation accuracy is +0.5 F between the range of 32 F and 150'F. If the plant conputer is out of service, the intake and discharge temperatures shall be monitored every two hours utilizing local reading instrunntation until the plant computer is returned to service. 565320 Bases The condenser coeling water system was designed to operate with a AT that would minimize *.hermal stress to organisms. The U.S. Environmenta' Protection Agency has set a limit of 27.5 F as a maximum aT permitted under the NPDES 2.1-3 Amendment No. 16

2. In the event that fewer than six circulating water pumps are in operation, the maximum condenser discharge water temperature shall not exceed 115"F for more than eight consecutive hours within any 24 hour period. 3. In the event specifications 2.1.2.1 or 2.1.2.2 are exceeded corrective action shall be taken to reduce the condenser discharge water tempera-ture to wit 1in specification. Such corrective action could include cleaning condenser water boxes or reduction of unit power level, unless an emergency need for poe r exists. Monitorina Requirement Discharge temperature shall be monitored every hour utilizing the average of the corr.puter printout of the discharge temperature measurements. The discharge temperature is measured at a point downstream of the condenser in each of the two 84-inch ID discharge lines from each condenser shell. Instrumentation accuracy is +0.5 F between the range of 32 F and 150 F. If the plant computer is out of service, the discharge temperature shall be monitored every two hours utilizing local reading instrumentation until the plant computer is returned to service. 565324 Bases Ichthyological Associates (IA) studies performed from June 1968 through December 1973 show 25 records of river temperatures > 84 F.
