A.

Acceptance Criteria:

Sufff ient data shall be collected to implement administrative controls to ensure that the moderator temperature coefficient during power escalation is non-positive.

-1.16 Administrative controls were implemented to ensure a non-positive moderator temperature coefficient during power escalation.

These controls were based on t'e control rod positicus and boron con-centrations which were observed during the maderator temperature coefficient measurements.

IV.

Power Distribution Measurements:

Flux maps uere taken at approximately 0, 30, 70, 90, 95J, and 100% power.

A.

Acceptance Criteria:

1.

Hot zero power map:

Assembly wise FaH <(1.08 X predicted) if a.

(F6H predicted) > 1.0.

b.

Assembly wise FaH < (1.15 X predicted) if (FaH predicted) < l.0.
