inadvertent criticality even after procedural violations. The interlocks on hoists provide yet another method of avoiding inadvertent criticality.
Tuel handling is normally conducted with the fuel grapple hoist. The total load on this hoist when the interlock is required consists of the weir.ht of the fuel grapple and the fuel assembly. This total is approxi-mate.y 1,500 lbs, in cemparison to the load-trip setting of 1,000 lbs.
Frovisions have also been made to allow fuel hardling with either of the three auxiliary hoists and still mair tain the refueling interlocks. The 400-lb load-trip setting on these hoists is adequate to trip the interlock when one of the more than 600-lb fuel bundles is being handled.
During certain periods, it is desirable to perform maintenance on two control rods and/or control red drives at the sare time.
The maintenance is performed with the mode switch in the " refuel" osition to provide the refuelint interlocka normally available during re'ueling operations.
In order to withdraw a second control red after wit drawal of the first rod, it to necessary to bypass the refueling interlock on the first control rod which prevents more than one control rod from being withdravm at the sane time.
The requirerent that an adequate shutdown Pargin be demonstrated
~
or that all ter.aininE control rods have their directienal control valves elec t rically dica rmed ensures that inaevertent criticality cannot occur during this maintenance. The adequacy of the shutdown targin is verified by de*eastrating that the core is shut down by a carr,in cf 0.35 percent er that at Lk with.the strengest eperable centrol rod fully withdrawn, least 0.38: ak shutdown margin is available if the rer.aining centrol rods have had their directional control valves disarmed.
Disarming the direc-tional control valves does not inhibit control rod scram capability.
Specification 3.10.A.6 allevs unloading of a significant portion of the reactor core. This operation is perforced with the mode svitch in the
" refuel" position to provide the refueling interlocka normally available during refueling operations.
In crder to withdraw mo.e than one cer.trel rod, it is necessary te bypass the refueling interlock on each ithdraen control rod which prevents more than one control rod from being withdrawn at n time.
The requirement that the fuel assemblies in the cell controlled by the control rod be removed froo the reactor core before the interlock can be bypasscJ ensures that withdrawal of another control red does not result in inadvertent criticality. Each control rod provides prie.ary reactivity control for the fuel assemblies in the cell associated with chat control rod.
Thus, removal of an entire cell (fuel assemblics plus contrel red) results in a lower reactivity potential of the core. The requirements for SRM operability during these core alterations ascure sufficient core menitoring.

a 3.10 EASES C.
Spent Fuel Pool Water The design of the spent fuel storage pool provides a storage locat?on for approximately 140 percent of the full core load of fuel assemblies in the reactor building which ensures adequate shielding, cooling, and reactivity control of irradiated fuel. An analysis has been performed which shows that a water level at or in excess of eight and one-half feet over the top of the stored assemblies will provide shielding such that the maximum calculated radiological doses do not exceed the limits of 10 CFR 20.
The normal water level provides 14-1/2 feet of additional water shielding.
The capacity of the skimmer surge tanks is available to maintain the water level at its normal height for three days in the absence of additional water input from the condensate storage tanks. All penetrations of the fuel pool have been installed at such a height that their presence does not provide a possible drainage route that could lower the normal water level acre than one-half foot.
The fuel pool cooling system is designed to maintain the pool water temperature less than 125'F during normal keat loads. If the reactor core is completely unloaded when the pool contains two previous discharge batches, toe temperature ma,'
increase to greater than 125'F.
The RHR system supplemental fuel pool cooling mode will be used under these conditions to maintain the pool temperature to less than 125'F.
3.10.D/4.10.D B AS ES Reactor Building Crane The reactor building crane and 125-ton hoist are required to be operable for handling of the spent fuel in the reactor bui? 'ing.
The controls for the 125-ton hoist are located in the crane cab. The 5-ton has both cab and pendant controls.
A visual inspection of the load-bearing hoist wire rope assures detec-tion of signs of distress or wear so that corrections can be promptly made if needed.
The testing of the various limits and interlocks assurcs their proper operation when the crane is used.
3.10.E/C.10.E Spent Fuel Cask The spent fuel cask design incorporates removable lifting trunnions.
The visual inspection of the trunnions and f asteners prier to attach-ment to the cask assures that no visual damage has oc,urred during prior handling. The trunnions must be properly attached to the cask for lif ting of the cask and the visual inspection assures correct installation.

Core Monitoring The SRM's' are provided to monitor the core during periods of station shutdown and to guide the operator during refueling operations and station startup.' Requiring two operable SRM's in or adjacent t, any core quadrant where fuel or control rods are being moved assures ade-quate monitoring of that quadrant during such alterations. The require-ment of 3 counts per second provides assurance that neutron flux is being monitored and ensures that startup is conducted only if the source range flux level is above the minimum assumed in the control rod drop accident.
During a full core reload SRM/FLC (Fuel Loading Chamber) operability will be verified using a portable external source at least once every 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> until sufficient fuel has been loaded to maintain 3 cps. A large number of fuel assemblies will not be required to maintain 3 cps.
This increased surveillance rate assures proper detector operability until that time.
Under the special condition of removing the full core with all control rods inserted and electrically disarmed, it is perctissible to allow SRM count rate to decrease below 3 cps. All fuel moves during core unloading vill reduce reactivity. It is expected that the SRM's will drop belov 3 cps before all of the fuel is unloade d.
Since there vill be no reactivity additions during this period, the low number of counts will not present a hazard. When all of the y
fuel has been removed to the spent fuel storage pool, SRM's vill no longer be required. Requiring the SRM's to be functionally tested prior to fuel removal assures that the SRM's will be operable at the start of fuel removal. The daily response check of the SRM's ensures their continued operability until the count rate diminishes due to fuel removal. Control rods in cells from which all fuel has been removcd and which are outside the periphery of the then existiag fuel matrix may be armed electrically and moved for maintenance purposes during full core removal, provided all rods that control fuel are fully inserted and electrically disarmed.

Spent Fuel Pool Water The design of the spent fuel storage poel'provides a storage location for approximately 140 percent of the full core load of fuel assemblies in the reactor building which ensures adequate shielding, cooling, and teactivity control of irradiated fuel. An analysis has been performed which shows that a water lqvel at or in exccas of eight and one-half feet over the top of the stored assemblies will provide shielding such that the maximum calculated radiological doses do not exceed the limits of 10 CFR 20.
The normal water level provides 14-1/2 feet of additional water shielding.
The capacity of the skimmer surge tanks is available to maintain the water level at its normal height for three days in the absence of additional water input from the condensate storage tanks. All penetrations of the fuel pool have been installed at such a height that their presence does not provide a possible drainage route that coul lower the normal water level more than one-half foot.
The fuel pool cooling system is designed to maintain the pool water temperature less than 125'F during normal heat loads. If the reactor core is completely unloaded when the pool contains two previous discaarge batches, the temperature may increase to greater than 125'F.
The RHR system supplemental fuel pool cooling mode vill be used under these conditions to maintain the pool temperature to less than 125'F.
3.10.D/4.10.D B AS ES Reactor Buirding Crane

cab and pendant controls.
A visual inspection of the load-bearing hoist wire rope assures de:ec-tion of signs of distress or wear so that corrections can be promptly made if needed.
The testing of the various limits and interlocks assures their proper operation when the crane is used.
3.10.E/4.10.E Spent Fuel Cask The spent fuc1 cask design incorporates removable lif ting trunnion 3.
The visual inspection of the trunnions and fasteners prior to at tach-ment to the cask assures that no visual damage has occurred during prior handling. The trunnions must be properly attached to the casi.
