3.10, CONTROL ROD AND POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS Applicability Applies to operation of control rods and hot channel factors during operation.
Objective To specify limits of. control rod movement'torassu're'an: acceptable power distriblution 'during power. operation,. limit worth of individual rods to values analyzed for accident conditions, maintain adequate shutdown
, margin _ af.ter-a reactor-trip and to specify acceptable power limits for power' tilt conditions'.~~
Specificat' ions 3.10.1 Shutdown Ma'rgi'n'Rsqsirements.
a.
Wi~th four primary coolant pumps in operation at hot shutdown and above, the shutdown margin shall be.2%. -

.b.
With less than four primary coolant pumps in operation at hot shutdown and above, boration shall be immediately initiated to increase and maintain the shutdown margin at 23.75%.
c.
At less than the hot shutdown condition, boron c'oncentration shall'be shutdown boron concentra't' ion'.:
d.
If a control rod 'cannot.be trippe'd, shutdo'wn. margin shall be increased by boration as necessary to compensate for the worth of the withdrawn inoperable rod.
e.
The drop time of each control rod shall be 'no greater than 2.5 seconds from the beginning of rod motion to 90% insertion.
3.'10.2 Individual Rod Worth The maximum worth of any one rod in the core at rated power shall be a.
l equal to or less'than 0.6% in reactivity.
b.
The maximum worth of any one rod in the core at zero power shall be equal to or less than 1.2% in reactivity.
