should observe the operating proced' ires and other conditions specified in the f acility lisence or authorization which authorizes operation of the facility.

." Appendix A to Provisional Operating l

that system procedures fcr startup, operation, and shutdown of the reactor be followed.

Operating Procedure C.1, Startup, in Part B, I

Step 3, and referenced Part A, Section 2. Step 4.c, requires that you "ohserve the period meter and govern control rod withdrawal to i

f L

avoid a reactor period shorter than 30 seconds."

of the same control 20d that resulted in the short period over the same notch positions.
