Tnis specification is not applicable in MODES 5 or u.
SE YEILLANCE RE0VIREMENTS 4.0.1 Surveillance Requirements shall be applicable during the OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions specified for individual Limiting Conditions for Operation unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Requirement.
4.0.2 Each Surveillance Requirement shall be performed within the specified time interval with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25 percent of the specified surveillance interval.
4.0.3 Failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by Specification 4.0.2, shall constitute noncompliance with the OPERABILITY requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation.
The time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at the time it is identified that a Surveillance Requirement has not been performed. However, this time of applicability may be delayed for up'to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to permit the completion of the surveillance when the allowable outage time limits of the ACl!0N requirements are less than 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> 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 Condition for Operatioa have been performed within the stated surveillance interval or as oth rwise specified.
This provision shall not prevent passage through or to OPERr 10NAL MODES as required to w..piy with ACTION requirements.
4.0.5 Surveillance Requirements for inservice inspection and Msting of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and.~, components shall be applicable as f ollows:
CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT 1 3/4 0 2 Amendment No. EE////,150
^
APPLICABILITY BASES mean that for one division the emergency power source must be OPERABLE (at must % <.he components supplied by the emergency power source) and all redur' t systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices in the other dis
..on must be OPERABLE or likewise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i.e., be capable of performing their design functions and have an emergency power source OPERABLE).
In other words, both eme.gency power sources must be OPERABLE and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components and devices in both divisions must also be OPERABLE.
If these
=
conditions are not satisfied, action is required in accordance with this specification.
In MODES 5 or 6 Specification 3.0.5 is i't applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicab e limiting Condition for Operation in these MODES must be adhered tc.
4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to insure the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed during the OPERATIONAL MODES or other conditions for which the Limiting Conditions 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 Surveillance Requirements.
Surveillance Requirements 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 This specification establishes the linit for which the specified time interval for Surveillance Requiremats may be extended.
It permits an allowable extension of the norme wrveillance interval to facilitate surveillance schedulimg and consideration of plant operating
-onditions that may not be suitable for conducting the surveillance, e.g., transient conditions or other ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities.
It also provides flexiF'ity to accommodate the length of a fuel cycle for surveillances that a performed at each refueling outage and are spectfied with a 24-month
..eillance interval.
It is not intended that this provision be useu cepeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond t;,at specified for surveillances that are not performed during refueling outages (e.g., surveillances with a FREQUENCY of R (18 months)).
The limitation of Specification 4.0.2 is based on engineering judgment and the recognition that the most probable result cf any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Requirements.
This provision is sufficient to ensure that the reliability ensured through surveillance activities is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance interval.

1 APPLICABillTY BASES 4.0.3 This specification establishes the failure to perform a Surveillance Requirement within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by the provisions of Specification 4.0.2, as a condition that constitutes a failure to meet the OPERABILITY requirements for a Limiting Condition for Operation.
Under the provisions of this specification, systems and components are assumed to be OPERABLE when Surveillance Requirements have been satisfactorily performed within the specified time interval.
However, nothing in this provision is to be construed as implying that systems or components are OPERABLE when they are found or known to be inoperable although still meeting the Surveillance Requirements.
This specification also clarifies that the ACTION requirements are applicable when Surveillance Requirements have not been completed witH n the allowed surveillance interval and that the time limits of the ACTION requirements apply from the point in time it is identified that a surveillance has not been performed and not at the time that the allowed surveillance interval was exc.eeded.
Completion of the Surveillance Requirement within the allowable time limits of the ACTION requirement restores compliance with the requirements of Specification 4.0.3.
Howaver, this does not negate th_e fact that the failure to have performed the surveillance within the allowed surveillance interval, defined by the provisions of Specification 4.0.2, was a violation of the OPERABILITY requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation that is subject tr nforcement action.
- Further, the failure to perform a sur.elllance within the provisions of Specification 4.0.2 is a violation of a Technical Specification requirement and is, therefore, a reportable event under the requirements of 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(1)(B) because it is a condition prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications.
If the allowable time limits of the ACTION requirements are less than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or a shutdown is required to umply with ACTION requirements, e.g., Specifica'. ion 3.0.3, a 24-hour allowance is provided-to permit a delay in impleme cing the ACT30N requirements.
This provides an adequate time limit to co plete Surveillance Requirements that have not been performed.. The purJose of this allowance is to permit the completion of a surveillance before a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements or before other remedial measures would be required that may preclude completion of a surveillance.
The basis for this allowance includes consideration for plant conditions, adequate planning, availability of personnel, and the time required to. perform the surveillance.
This. time limit provision also provides for the completion of
- Surveillance Requirements that become applicable as a consequence of MODE changes imposed by ACTION requirements and for completing Surveillance Requirements that are applicable when an exception to the requirements of Specification 4.0.4 is allowed.
If a surveillance is not completed within the 24-hour allowance, the time limits of the ACTION requirements CALVERT CLIFFS - UNIT I B 3/4 0-4 Amendment No. J//Jf/ 150 P

g 1.
a APPLICABILITY BASES are applicable at that time.
When a surveillance is performed within the 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> allowance and the Surveillance Requirement are not met, the time limits of the ACTION requirements are applicable at the time that the surveillance is terminated.
Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed on inoperable equipment because the ACTION requirements define the remedial measures that apply.
However, the surveillance Requirements have to be met to demonstrate that inoperable equipment has been restored to OPERABLE status.
4.0.4 This specification establishes the requirement that all applicable surveillances must be met before entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other condition of operation specified in the Applicability statement.
The purpose of this specification is to ensure that system and component OPERABILITY requirements or parameter limits are net before e
entry into a MODE or condition for which these systems and e m onents ensure safe operation of the faci 1Hy.
This provision applies to changes in OPERATIONAL MODES or other t ecified conditions associated with plant r
shutdown as well as startup.
Under the provisions of this specification, the applicable Surveillance Requirements must be performed within the specified surveillance Interval to ensure that the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met during initial plant startup or following a plant outage.
When a shutdown is required to comply with ACTION requirements, the provisions of Specification 4.0.4 do not apply because this would delay placing the facility in a lower MODE of operation.
4.0.5 This specification ensures that inservice inspection of ASME Code Class 1, 2 and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1, 2 and 3 pumps and valves will be performed in accordance with a periodically updated version of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50.55 a.
Relief from any of.the above requirements has been provided in writing by the
. Commission and is not a part of these Technical Specifications.
This specification includes a clarification of the frcquencies for performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section IX of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. This clarification is provided to ensure consistency in surveillance intervals throughout the Technical Specifications and to remove any ambiguitie. relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities.

i APPLICABillTY BASES Under the terms of this specification, the more restrictive requirements of the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boller and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda.
For example, the requirements of Specification 4.0.4 to perform surveillance activities prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps to be tested up to one week after return to normal operation.
And for example, the Technical Specification definition of OPERABLE does not grant a grace period before a device that is not capable of performing its specified function is declared inoperable and takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows a valve to be incapable of performing its specified function for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> before being declared inoperable.
