4.0.2 Each Surveillance Requirement shall be performed within the specified time interval with:

l a. A maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25% of the surveillance L interval, and I

b. The combined time interval for any three consecutive surveillance intervals not to exceed 3.25 times the specified surveillance interval.

interval shall constitute a failure to meet the OPERABILITY requirements for a l Limiting Condition for Operation. Exceptions to these requirements are stated I

in the individual specifications. Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment.

4.0.4 Entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified condition shall not be made unless the Surveillance Requirement (s) associated with the Limiting I i Condition for Operation have been performed within the stated surveillance l

4.0.5 Surveillance Requirements for inservice inspection and testing of ASME '

< a. Inservice inspection of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components and inservice testing ASME Code Class 1, 2 and 3 pumps and valves shall be performed in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50, Section 50.55a(g), except where specific written relief has been I granted by the Commission-pursuant to 10 CFR 50, Section 50.55a(g)(6)(i),

b. Surveillance intervals specified in Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda for the inservice inspection and testing activities required by the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda shall be applicable as follows in these Technical Specifications:

BASES 4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to ensure the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed during the OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions for which the Limiting Condi-tions for Operation are applicable. Provisions for additional surveillance activities to be performed without regard to the applicable OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions are provided in the individual Surveillancs Requirements.

Surveillance Recuirements for Special Test Exceptions need only be performed when the Special Test Exception is being utilized as an exception to an individual specification.

4.0.2 The provisions of this specification provide allowable tolerances

- for performing surveillance activities beyond those specified in the nominal surveillance interval. These tolerances are necessary to provide operational flexibility because of scheduling and performance considerations. The phrase

at least" associated with a surveillance frequency does not negate this allowable tolerance value and permits the performance of more-frequent surveillance activities.

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.

4.0.3 The provisions of this specification set forth the criteria for determination of compliance with the OPERABILITY requirenents of the Limiting Conditions for Operation. Under this criteria, equipment, systems, or components are assumed to be OPERABLE if the associated surveillance activ-ities 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.
