REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BORATED WATER SOURCES - SHUTDOWN LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 3.1.2.7 As a minimum, one of the following borated water sources shall be OPERABLE:

a.

One boric acid storage tank with:

1.

A minimum solution temperature of 37'F.

APPLICABILITY: MODES 5 and 6.

ACTION:

With no borated water sources OPERABLE, suspend all operations involving CORE ALTERATIONS or positive reactivity changes until at least one barated water source is restored to OPERABLE status.

REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.2 00 RATION SYSTEMS (Continued)

With the RCS temperature below 200*F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional restrictions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable.

The boron inventory in the RWST or BAT is sufficient (a) to compen-sate for an inadvertent positive reactivity addition to the Reactor Coolant System of approximately 1 percent ak/k while in MODE 5 at 200*F; and (b) to maintain a constant RCS reactivity while the temperature is decreased from 200*F to 80*F.

In MODE 6, the BAT inventory is sufficient to increase ths boron concentration to compensate for an inadvertent positive reactivity addition of appoximately 1 percent ak/k while in the refueling mode. These conditions require 8494 usable gallons of 7000-ppm barated water from the baric acid storage tanks or 23,432 usable gallons of 2000-ppm barated water from the refueling water storage tank.

The required boric acid storage '.ank volume of 8494 gallons has been increased to a value greater than the minimum level. indicating range (4050 gallons), to 12,544 gallons.(rounded to 12,600 gallons). The i

required RWST volume of 23,432 gallons must be increased to account for l

nonusable volume due to tank geometry, letdown and vortexing considerations l

(78,000 gallons), to 101,432 gallons (rounded to 102,000 gallons).

I 3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are mantained, (2) the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) limit the potential effects of a red ejection accident.

CPERABILITY of the control rod position indicators is requirec to determine control rod positions and thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment and insertion limits.

The ACTION statements which permit ifmited variations from the

  • basic recuirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure tnat the original criteria are met. Misaldgnment of a rod requires measurement of peaking factors or a restriction of THERMAL POWER; eitner of these j

restrictions provides assurance of fuel rod integrity during continued

peration. The reactivi y wceth of a misaligned rod is limited for -ne

-enainder of the fuel cycle to prevent exceeding the assumptions used in r.e accident analysis for a red ejection accident.

~he maximum rod droo time restriction is consistent with the assumed

  • d crop time used in :ne accident analyses.

Measurement w' ch Taye >55F ar.c with all reactor coolant pumps cperating ensures that the measured cr:0 times will be representative of insertion times experienced during a reactor tris at cperating conditions.
