BASES '

3/4.1.2 BORATION SYSTEMS (Continued) j The limits on contained water volume and boron concentration of the RWST also ensure a pH value of between 8.5 and 11.0 for the solution recirculated within the containment after a LOCA. This pH minimizes the evolution of fodine and minimizes the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion on mechanical systems and components.

l GEE ATRCHED PAC &

3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are maintained. (2) the minicum SHJ' T00WN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) limit the potential effects of rod misalignment on associated accident analyses. OPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is required to determine control rod positions and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment and insertion limits.

The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the original design criteria are met. Misslignment of a rod requires measurement of peaking factors or a restriction in THERMAL POWER; either of these restrictions provides assurance of fuel rod integrity during continued operation. In addition those accident analyses affected by a misaligned rod are reevaluated to confirm that the results remain valid during future operation.

Control rod positions and OPERABILITY of the rod position indicators are required to be verified on a nominal basis of once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months with more frequent verifications required if an automatic monitoring channel is inoperable. These verification frequencies are adequate for assuring that the applicable LCO's are satisfied.

The maximum rod drop time restriction is consistent with the as-st.ned rod drop time used in the accident analyses. Measurement with T

> 500*F and with all reactor coolant pumps operating ensures that tM9measured drop-times wiii be representative of inserticn times ex-perienced during a reactor trip at operating conditions.

3/4.1.2 80 RATION SYSTEMS (Continued) becauseTheofcontained dischargewater volume line location limits and include other allowance physical for water not available characteristics. The OPERABILITY of one boron injection system during REFUEllNG insures that this system is available for reactivity control while in MODE 6.

The limits on contained water volume and baron concentration of the RWST also ensure a pH value of between 8.5 and 11.0 for the solution recirculated within the containment after a LOCA. This pH minimizes the evolution of iodine and mechanical minimizes systems and components.the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion on SEE ATTAC RED PAGE 3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES l The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are maintained, (2) the minimum SHUTOOWN MARGIN is main-tained, and (3) limit the potential effects of red misalignment on associated accident analyses. OPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is required to determins control rod positions and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment and insertion limits.

The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the original design criteria are met.
