The objectives of the reactor water levelis 126.5 in, above the top of active fuel. This specifications are to assure the effectiveness of the protective trip in;trumentation when required, even during periods when portions eof such systems are out of service for maintenance, and to prcscribe the trip settings required to assure adequate performance.

When necessary, one channel may be made inoperable for brief intervals to conduct required functional tests and calibrations.

Some of the settings on the instrumentation that initiate or control core and containment cooling have tolerances explicitly stated where the high and low values are both critical and may have a substantial effect on safety. The set points of other instrumentation, where only the high or low end of the setting has a direct bearing on safety, are chosen at a level away from the normal cperating range to prevent inadvertent actuation of the safety system involved and exposure to abnormal situations.

Actuation of primary containment valves is initiated by protective instrumentation shown in Table 3.2-1 which senses the conditions ior which isolation is required. Such instrumentation must be cvailable whenever primary containment integrity is required.

The instrumentation which initiates primary system isolation is connected in a dual bus arrangement.

r JAFNPP 6.0 ADMINfSTRATIVE CONTROLS Administrative Controls are the means by which plant operations are subject to management control. Measures specified in this section provide for the assignment of responsibilities, olant organization, staffing qualifications and related requirements, review and audit mechanisms, procedural controls and reporting requirements. Each of these measures are necessary to ensure safe and efficient facility operation.

6.1 RESPONSIBILITY The Resident Manager is responsible for safe operation of the plant. During periods when the Resident Manager is unavailable, one of the three General Managers will assume this responsibility. In the event all four are unavailable, the Resident l

Manager may delegate this responsibility to other qualified supervisory personnel.

The Resident Manager reports directly to the Executive Vice President-Nuclear Generation.

6.2 ORGANIZATION i

6.2.1 Facility Manecement and Technical Suonort Onsite and offsite organizations shall be established for plant operation and corporate management, respectively. The onsite and offsite organizations shall include the positions for activities that affect the safety of the nuclear power plant.

1. Lines of authority, responsibility, and communication shall be established and defined for the highest management levels through intermediate levels to and including all operating organization positions. These relationships shall be documented and updated, as appropriate, in the form of organization charts, functional descriptions of department responsibilities and relationships, and job descriptions for key personnel positions, or in equivalent forms of documentation. These requirements shall be documented in the Updated FSAR.
2. The Resident Manager shall be responsible for overall plant operation, and shall l

have control over those onsite activities that are necessary for safe operation and maintenance of the plant.

3. The Executive Vice President - Nuclear Generation shall take any measures needed to ensure acceptable performance of the staff in operating, maintaining,

[

and providing technical support to the plant to ensure nuclear safety.

4. The individuals who train the operating staff and those who carry out health physics and quality assurance functions may report to the appropriate onsite manager; however, they shall have sufficient organizational freedom to ensure their independence from operating pressures.

6.2.2 Plant Staff The plant staff organization shall be as fo!!ows:

1. Each shift crew shall be composed of at least the minimum shift crew composition shown in Table 6.2-1:
