Soiral Reload. Pertains to:the spiral reloading of.the core with fuel, at least -50% of which ' has previously accumulated a minimum exposure of 1000 MWD /T.

The Surveillance Frequency establishes the limit-for which the specified time

It permits on D

' allowable extension of the normal surveillance interval to facilitate surveillance schedule and consideration of plant operating conditions that may: not be suitable for conducting the surveillance; e.g.,

transient conditions or other ongoing survol11ance or maintenance activities. It also s

provides. flexibility to accomnoda te the length of a foci cycle for n,

Surveillance Requirements. This provision 'is suf ficient to enunre that the-reliability ensured. through surviollance activities in not signi ficantly Jr degraded beyond=that obtained from the specified surveillance interval.

p 2.

Surveillance Interval The surveillance interval is the calendar time between surveillance tests,. checks,1 calibrations and examinations to be performed upon L

an instrument or component when it-is required to be operable.

These tests 1

may be waived when the instrument, component or system in not roynited to be operablo? but the. instrument, component or system shall he. tented prior to L

being declared operable or as practicabic following its -roturn to nervice.

Vent, used in system na:wn, doon not imply a venting process.
