Dear Mr. Grier:
NONTICELI4 NUCISAR CENERATING FIANT Docket No. 50-263 Licese No. DPR-22 Response to July 26,197314tter on Shutdown Margin Testing on August 3, 4 and 5,1973, Shutdown Harnin Verification tests were ecrapieted on all 121 control rods at the Monticc11o Daelear Generating Plant as stipu-lated in the July 26, 1973 letter frena B B Grier to L J Wachter. Rese tests were perforraed in accordance with the AEC criteria prebented in our August 2,1973 telephone conversat.Lon documented in an August 3,1973 letter frema D L Etemann to L 0 Mayer. % ese criteria required dennonstrating a shutdown margin of 0.75% delta k with allowance for transient xenon and samaritus so long as no amore than two control rods were withdruun fums the fully inserted post.Lon. Testing of peripheral rods cosamenced 77 hours8.912037e-4 days <br />0.0214 hours <br />1.273148e-4 weeks <br />2.92985e-5 months <br /> after the July 31, 1973 shutdown. Subcriticality was verified for each test condition.
Attached is a tabulation of 199 shutdown margin d*=mmtrations, some rods being tasted more than once. The tests are grouped into three cat *Eories:
Tuo Rod Out testa shodthat two adjacent CODtrol Inds TED could be fully withdrawn while maintainJng subcriticality.
This was done on the periphery where indiviqutt rod worths are very anali.
/
RSP Calculations taere done by NSP prior to receiving the final AEC criteria. Tests were specified to demonstrate greater than or equal to 1% delta k abutdown margin with anc rod out.
The transient zanon and samarium was less than 0.257, detta k at the time of these tests so the AEC criteria vers satisfied.

l GE calculations were likeurise done by CE prior to receiving ABC criteria. Their tr_ats were designed to demonstrate a shutdown margin of greater than or equal to 1.27A delta k with one rod out.
This larger margin was chosen to allow testing to be done at sodar-ator temperatures op to 125'F tahich adds a naastivity reactivity of up to 0.20% detta k.
Testing aus done with moderstor temperatures between 95 and 1000F dtich involves no significanc $ange in reactivity from the cold condition. Transient =*** and samarium wa less than 0.25% delta k during these tests also such that ABC criteria were satisfied.
Should thers be any questions regarding the tabulated test results, please feel fue to contact us.
Yours very truly,
