3.0 APPLICABILITY l

BASES The specifications of this section provide the general requirements applicable to each of the Limiting Conditions for Operation and Surveillance Requirements within Section 3.0.

3.0.1 This specification defines the applicability of each specification in terms of defined OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability conditions and is provided to delineate specifically when each specification is applicable.

3.0.2 This specification defines those conditions necessary to constitute compliance with the terms of an individual Limiting Condition for Operation and associated ACTION requirement.

3.0.3 This specification delineates the ACTION to be taken for circumstances not directly provided for in the ACTION statements and whose occurrence would violate the intent of specification.

For example, Specification 4.2.5.8, requires all three rod position indicator systems to be available for indication of individual rod positions, and provides for one of,these systems to be removed for maintenance for a time period of up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

Under the terms of Specification 3.0.3, if more than one rod position indication system is out of service, the unit is to be placed in.H0T SHUTDOWN within six hours and in COLD SHUTDOWN within the next thirty hours.

It is assumed that the unit is brought to the required OPERATIONAL l

CONDITION within the required times by promptly initiating and carrying out the i

appropriate ACTION statement.

l 1

)

3.0.4 This specification provides that entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or j

other specified applicability condition must be made with (a) the full complement j

of required systems, equipment or components OPERABLE and (b) all other parameters as specified in the Limiting Conditions for Operation being met without regard for allowable deviations and out of service provisions contained in the ACTION statenents.

The intent of this provision is to ensure that unit operation is not initiated with either required equipment or systems inoperable or other specified limits being exceeded.

Exceptions to this prov.ision have been provided for a limited number of specifi-c.u.Uns when startup with inoperable equipment would not affect plant safety.

lhese exceptions are stated in the ACTION statements of the appropriate specifications.

"'"% r 3.0 APPLICABILITY 8_ASES - (Cont'd) 3.0.5 This specification delineates what additional conditions must be satisfied to permit operation to continue, consistent with the ACTION statements for power sources, when a normal or emergency power source is not OPERABLE.

It specifically prohibits operation when one division is inoperable because its normal or emergency power source is inoperable and a system, subsystem, train, component or device in another division is inoperable for another reason.

The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statements associated with individual systems, subsystems, trains, components or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical power source.

It allows operation to be governed by the time limits of the ACTION statement associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for the normal or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each system, subsystem, train, component or device that is determined to be inoperable solely because of the inoperability

~

of its normal or emergency power source.

For example, Specification 3.8.1.1 requires in part that both emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides for a 72-hour out-of-service time when emergency diesel generator (lA) or (18) is not OPERABLE.

If the defini--

tion of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5, all systems, subsystems, trains, components, and devices supplied by the inoperable emergency power source, deisel generator (lA) or (18), would also be inoperable.

This would dictate making the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicab h Limiting Conditions for Operation.

However,.the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied.

In this case, this would mean that the corresponding normal power source must be OPERABLE, and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components,and devices must be OPERABLE, or otherwise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design function and have at least one normal or one emergency power source OPERABLE).

If they are not satisfied, shutdown is required in accordance with this specification.

In Condition 4 or 5, Specification 3.0.5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these Conditions must-be adhered to.

i 3.0.6 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to 4

ensure that the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed

[

during the OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability conditions

?

for which the Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable.

Provisions for 3

additional surveillance activities to be performed without regard to the. applicable i

OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability conditions are provided in the individual Surveillance Requirements.

Surveillance Requirements for Special dk Test Exceptions need only be performed when the Special Test Exception is being h

utilized as an exception to an individual specification.

BASES - (Cont'd) 3.0.7 The provisions of this specification provide allowable tolerances for performing surveillance activities beyond those specified in the nominal surveil-lance interval.

These tolerances are necessary to provide operational flexibility because of scheduling and performance consideration.

The phrase "at least" associated with a surveillance frequency requirement does not negate these allowable tolerances for performing surveillance activities; instead it permits more frequent performance of surveillance activities than required by the specification.

The tolerance values, taken either individually or consecutively over three test intervals, are sufficiently restrictive to ensure that the reliability associated with the surveillance activity is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the nominal specified interval.

3.0.8 The provisions of this specification set forth the criteria for determina-tion of compliance with the OPERABILITY requirements of the Limiting Condition for Operation.

Under this criteria, equipment, systems or components are assumed to be OPERABLE if the associated surveillance activities have been satisfactorily performed within the specified time interval.

Nothing in this provision is to be construed as defining equipment, systems or components OPERABLE, when such items are found or known to be inoperable although still meeting the Surveillance Requirements.

3.0.9 This specification ensures that the surveillance activities associated with a Limiting Condition for Operation have been performed within the specified time interval prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified appli-cablity condition.

The inte.t of this provision is to ensure that surveillance activities have been satisfacto ily demonstrated on a current basis as required to meet the OPERABILITY requiremenu of the Limiting Condition for Operation.

Under the terms of this specification, for example, following extended plant outages, the applicable surveillance activities must be performed within the stated surveillance interval prior to placing or returning the system or equipment into OPERABLE status.

3.0.10 This specification ensures that inservice inspection of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME Code Class I, 2, and 3 pumps and valves will be performed in accordance with a periodically updated version of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50, Section 50.55a. Relief from any of the above requirements has been provided in writing by the Commission and is not a part of these Technical Specifications.

3.0 APPLICABILITY BASES - (Cont'd)

This spccification includes a clarification of the frequencies of performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable addenda. This clarification is provided to ensure consistency in surveillance intervals throughout these Technical Sepcifications and to remove any ambiguities relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities.

Under the terms of this specification, the more restrictive requirements of the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda.

For example, the requirements of Specification 3.0.9 to perform surveillance activities prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability condition takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps to be tested up to one week after return to normal operation. And for example, the Technical Specification defini-tion of OPERABLE does not grant a grace period before a device that is not capable of performing its specified function is declared inoperable and-takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel provision which allows a valve to be incapable of performing its specified function for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> before being declared inoperable.
