3/4.1 REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS SASES 3 / 4.1.1. 4 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC) (Continued) fuel cycle. The surveillance requirement for measurement of the MTC at tne beginning and near the end of each fuel cycle is adequate to confirm the MTC value since this coefficient changes slowly due crincipally to the reduction in RCS baron concentration associated witn fuel burnup.
3 / 4.1.1. 5 MINI"i;M 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 analy:ed tencerature range, 2) the pressuri:er is cacable of being in an CPERABLE status with a steam bubble, 3) the 1
reactor pressure vessel is above its minimum NOTT temcerature and 2) tne protective instrumantation is within its normal operating range.
3/2.1.2 30RATICN SYSTEMS The bcron injection system ensures that negative reactivity control is available during each mode of facility operation. The coecenents
)
required to perform this function include 1) borated water sources,
- 2) charging pumps, 3) separate ficw paths,1) boric acid transfer ;umos,
- 5) associated heat tracing systems, and 6) an emergency pcwer supply
]
frem GPERABLE diesel generators.
E e
With the RCS average temcerature above 200*F, a minimum of two i
separate and redundant baron injection systems are providec to ensure i
single functional capability in :ne event an assumed failure renders one of the systems inocerable. Allcwable out-of-service cericds ensure inat minor comconetst repair or corrective action may be conoleted without undue risk to overall facility safety frem injection system failures during the repair period.

The required volume of water in the refueling dater storage tank for reactivity considerations while acerating is 224,000 galions. The associated technical specification limit on the refueling 4ater storage tank nas been established at 121,100 gallons to account for reactivity considerations and the NPSH requirements of the ECCS system.
