4 SURVEILLAf!CE REOUIREMENTS Specified surveillance intervals may be adjusted plus or minus 25 percent to accommodate normal test and surveillance schedules.

The maximum combined interval for any 3 consecutive tests shall not e.rceed 3.25 ' times the specified surveillance intervah Surveillance ennuirements are not applicable when the plant operati6g conditions are below those requiring operability of the designstad component.

Hewever, the required surveillance must be performed prior to reaching the operating conditions requiring operability.

For example, instrumentation requiring twice per week surveillance when the reactor is Mal need not have the required surveillance when the reactor i.:..dtdewn.

Inservice inspection of ASME' Code Class 1, 2, 3 components shafl be perfomed 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 granted ty the !!RC pursuant to 10 CFP, 50, Section50.55a(g)(6)(1).

Failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within the specified time interval shall constitute a failure to meet the OPERABILITY requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation.

Exceptions to these requirements are stated in the individual specifications.

Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperabTe equiptr.ent.

~~

4.1 OPERATIONAL SAFETY ITEMS Apolicability Applies to items directly related to safety limits and limiting conditions for operation.

Obiective To specify the minimum frequency and type of surveillance to be applied to unit equipment and conditions.

Specification The minimum frequency and type of surveillance required for a.

reactor protective system and engineered safeguards system i

instrumentation when the reactor is critica_1 shall be as stated in l

Table 4.1-1.

b.

. Equipment and sampling test shall be performed as detailed in Tables 4.1-2 and 4.1-3.

Discrepancies noted during surveillance testing will be corrected c.

and recorded.

i d.

A power distribution map shall be made to verify the expected.

power distribution at periodic intervals at least every 10 effective full power days using the incore instrumentation j

detector system'.

4.2.3 The structural integrity of the reactor coolant system boundary shall be maintained at the level required by the original acceptance standards throughout the life of the station. Any evidence, as a result of the tests outlined in Table 15-261 cf Section XI of the code, that defects have. developed or grown, shall be Tnvestigated.

4.2.4 To. assure the struclu'ral integrity of the reactor inte'rnals throughout the life of the unit, the two sets of main internals bolts (connecting the core barrel to the core support, shield and to the lowe'r grid cylinder) shall remain in place and under tension.

This will be verified by visual inspection to determine

~

that the welded bolt locking caps remain in place.

All locking caps will be inspected after hot functional testing and whenever the internals are removed from the' vessel during a refueling or maintenance shutdown. The core barrel to core support shield caps will be inspected each refueling shutdown.

4.2.5 Sufficient records of each inspection shall be kept to allow comparison and evaluation of future inspections.

4.2.6 Surface and volumetric examination of-the reactor coolant pump flywheels will be conducted coincident with' refueling or maintenance shutdowns such that during 10 year intervals all four reactor coolant pump flywheels will be examined.

Suen examinations will be performed to the extent possible through the access ports, i.e., those areas of the flywheel accessible without motor disassembly. The surface and volumetric examination may be accomplished by Acoustic Emission Examination as an initial examination method.

Should the results of the Acoustic Emission Examination indicate that additional examination is necessary to ensure the structural integrity of the flywheel, then other appropriate NDE methods will be performed on the area of concern.

4.2.7 The reactor vessel material irradiation surveillance specimens 4

removed from the reactor vessel in 1976 shall be installed, irradiated in and withdrawn from the Davis-Besse Unit No. I reactor vessel in accordance with the schedule shown in Table 4.2-1.

Following withdrawal of each capsule listed in'.

Table 4.2-1, Arkansas Power & Light Company shall be responsible for testing the specimens and submitting a report of test results in accordance with 10CFR50, Appendix H.
