Changes to the Technical Specifications Date of Issuance: January 25, 1980
ATTACitiENT TO LICENSE AMENDMENT NO. 45 PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-16 DOCKET NO. 50-219 Replace the following pages of the Appendix "A" Technical Specifications with the enclosed pages. The revised pages are identified by the captioned amendment number and contain vertical lines indicating the area of change.

- There are no changes to the provisions on this page.
It has been retyped for administrative purposes only.
3 4-1a a.
At least one core spray pump, and system ccmponents necessary to deliver rated core spray to the reactor vessel, must renain operabl'; to the extent that the pump and any necessary va.ves can be started or operated from the control rocxn or frce local control stations.
- b. The fire protection system is operable, and
- c. These systems are demonstrated to be operable on a weekly basis.
B. If necessary to accceplish maintenance or modifications to the core spray systems, their pcwer supplies or water supplies, reduced systen availability is permitted when the reactor is in the refuel mode with the reactor coolant system maintained.
less than 212 F or in the star',up mode for the purposes of low power phy'ics testing. Reduced core spray system availability is defined as follows:
- a. At least one core spray pump in each loop, and system components necessary to deliver rated core spray to the reacter vessel, must remain operable to the extent that the ;'znp and any necessary valves in each loop can be Jtarted or operated from the control room or fi7m local control stations.
- b. The fire protection system is operable and,
- c. Each core spray pump and all components in 3 4. A.8a are demonstrated to be operable every 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />.
- 9. If Specifications 3 4.A.7 and 3.4.A.8 cannot be met, the requirements of Specification 3.4. A.6 will be met and work will be initiated to meet minimum operability requirements of 3.4. A.7 and 3.4.A.8.
- 10. The core spray system is not required to be operable when the following conditions are met:
- a. The reactor mode switch is locked in the
" refuel" or " shutdown" position.
b.(1) There is an operable flow path capable of taking suction from the condensate storage tank and transferring water to the reactor vessel, and (2) The fire protection system is operable.
I Amendment No. Jf, J, 45
3 4-1b
- c. The reactor coolant system is maintained at less than 212 F and vented.
d.
At least one core spray pump, and system cccpanents necessary to deliver rated core spray flow to the reactor vessel, must remain operable to the extent that the pump and any necessary valves can be started or operated frca the control room or frcm local control statiens, and the torus is mechanically intact.
e.(1) No work shall be performed on the reactor or its connected systems which could result in lowering the reactor water level to less than 4'8" above the top of the active fuel and the condensate storage tank level is greater U,ca thirty (30) feet (360,000 gallons).
At least two redundant systuns including core spray pumps and system components must renain operable as defined in d. above.
OR (2) The reactor vessel head, fuel pool gate, and separator -dryer pool gates are removed and the water levi 1 is above elevation 117 feet.
NOTE: When filling the reactor cavity from the condensate storage tank and craining the reactor cavity to the condesate storage tank, the 30 foot limit does not apply provided there is sufficient amount of water to ccmplete the flooding operation.
B.
Autcmatic Depressurizatien System
- 1. Five electromatic relief valves of the autcrnatic depressurization system shall be operable when the reactor is pressurized above 110 psig, except as specified in 3.4.B.2.
Amendment No. /,[, 45
3 5-1a
- c. The reactor coolant system is maintained at less than 212 F and vented.
d.
At least one core spray pu:np, and system components necessary to deliver rated core spray flow to the reactor vessel, must remain operable to the extent that the pump and any necessary valves can be started or operated frca the control room or frce local control stations, and the torus is mechanically intact.
e.(-1) No work shall be performed on the reactor er its connected systems which could result in lowering the reactor water level to less than 4'8" above the top of the active fuel and the condensate storage tank level is greater than thirty (30) feet (360,000 gallons).
At least two redundant systems including core spray pumps and system components must remain operable as defined in d. above.
OR (2) The reactor vessel head, fuel pool gate, and separator-dryer pool gates are removed and the water level is above elevaticn 117 feet.
NOTE: When filling the reactor cavity from the condensate storage tank and draining the reactor cavity to the condensate storage tank, the 30 foot limit does not apply provided there is sufficient amount of water to canplete the flooding operation.
- 3. Primary contairrnent integrity shall be maintained at all times wtien the reactor is critical cr when the reactor water temperature is above 212 F and fut is in the reactor vessel except while performing low power physics + ests at atmospheric pressure during or after refueling at power levelt not to exceed 5 Mht.
