314.1.1.1 and 3/4.1.1.2 SHUTDOWN MARGIN A sufficient SHUTDOWN MARGIN ensures that 1) the reactor can subcritical from all operating conditions, 2) the reactivity transients associated with postulated accident conditions are controllable within i
acceptable limits, and 3) the reactor will be maintained sufficiently subcritical to preclude inadvertent criticality in the shutdown condition.
SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirements vary throughout core life as a function o depletion, RCS boron concentration, and RCS T' $.
The most restrictive condition occurs at EOL, with T at no load erating temperature, and is uncontrolled RCS cooldown. associated with a postulated stl 8 line break acc In the analysis of this accident, the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPOR required by Specification 3.1.1.1 is based upon this lim l

The confirmation that the measured MTC value is within its limit provides assurance that the coefficient will be maintained within acceptable values throughout each fuel cycle.
l MILLSTONE - UNIT 2 B 3/4 1 1 Amendment No. US,148
REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.1.5 MINIMUM TEMPERATURE FOR CRITICALITY The MTC is expected to be slightly negative at operating conditions.
However, at the beginning of the fuel cycle, the MTC may be slightly positive at operating conditions and since it will become more positive at lower temperatures, this specification is provided to restrict reactor operation when T,yg is significantly below the normal operating tempera-ture.
3/4.1.2 BORAT10N SYSTEMS l
The boron injection system ensures that negative reactivity control is available during each mode of facility operation.
The components required to perform this function include 1) borated water sources, 2) charging pumps, 3) separate flow paths, 4) boric acid pumps, and 5) an emergency power supply from OPERABLE diesel generators.
With the RCS average temperature above 200'F, a minimum of two separate and redundant boron injection flowpaths are provided to ensure single functional capability in the event an assumed failure of a pump or valve rende's one of the flowpaths inoperable.
Redundant flow paths from the Boric 1.cid Storage Tanks are achieved through Boric Acid Pumps, gravity feed lines and Charging Pumps.
Redundant flow paths from the Refueling Water Storage Tank are achieved through Charging Pump flow path guaranteed by Technical Specification 3.1.2.2 and the HPSI flow path guaranteed by Technical Specification 3.5.2 and 3.5.3.
Allowable out of-service periods ensure that minor component repair or corrective action may be completed without undue risk to overall facility safety from injection system failures during the repair period.
The minimum boration capability is sufficient to provide a SHUTDOWN MARGIN within the limits specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT at all temperatures above 200'F.
The maximum boration capability requirement occurs at EOL from full power equilibrium xenon conditions and requires an equivalent of 4900 gallons of 3.5% boric acid solution from the boric acid tanks plus 15,000 of 1720 ppm borated water from the refueling water storage tank. The refueling water storage tank can also be used alone by feed and-bleed using well under the 370,000 gallons of 1720 ppm borated water required.
The requirements for a minimum contained volume of 370,000 gallons of borated water in the refueling water storage tank ensures the capability for borating the RCS to the desired level.
The specified quantity of I
borated water is consistent with the ECCS requirements of Specification 3.5.4.
Therefore, the larger volume of borated water is specified here too.
MILLSTONE - UNIT 2 B 3/4 1 2 Amendment No. JE, JJ, JJJ,148 a
BASES 3/4.1_._2 P_0PATION SYSTEMS (Continued)
The analysis to determine the boration requirements assumed that the Reactor Coolant System is borated concurrently with cooldown, in the limiting situation when letdown is not available, the cooldown is assumed to be initiated within 26 hours3.009259e-4 days <br />0.00722 hours <br />4.298942e-5 weeks <br />9.893e-6 months <br /> and cooldown to 220'F, is completed in the next 28 hours3.240741e-4 days <br />0.00778 hours <br />4.62963e-5 weeks <br />1.0654e-5 months <br />.
With the RCS temperature below 200'F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional restrictions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable.
The boron capability required below 200'F is based upon providing a SHUTDOWN MARGIN within the limit specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT at 140'F after xenon decay.
This condition requires either 3750 gallons of 2.5% boric acid solution from the boric acid tanks or 57,300 gallons of 1720 ppm borated water from the refueling water storage tank.
The maximum boron concentration requirement (3.5%) and the minimum temperature requirement (55'F) for the Boric Acid Storage Tank ensures that boron does not precipitate in the Boric Acid System.
The daily surveillance requirement provides sufficient assurance that the temperature of the tank will be maintained higher than 55'F at all times.
A minimum boron concentration of 1720 ppm is required in the RWST at all times in order to satisfy safety analysis assumptions for boron dilution incidents and other transients using thL RWST as a borated water source as well as the analysis assumption to determine the boration requirement to ensure adequate shutdown margin.
3/4.1.3 MOVEABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section ensure that (1) acceptable power distribution limits are maintained, (2) the minimum SHUTDOWN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) the potential effects of a CEA ejection accident are limited to acceptable levels.
The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the original criteria are met, l
The ACTION statements applicable to an immovable or untrippable CEA and to a large misalignment (1 20 steps) of two or more CEAs, require e prompt shutdown of the reactor since either MILLSTONE UNIT 2 B 3/4 1-3 Amendment No. 75,51,71,JJE,

3/4.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION tlMITS i
BASES 3/4.2.1 LINEAR HEAT RATE The limitation on linear heat rate ensures that in the event of a LOCA, the peak temperature of the fuel cladding will not exceed 2200*F.
Either of the two core power distribution monitoring systems, the Excore Detector Monitoring System and the Incore Detector Monitoring System, provide adequate monitoring of the core power distribution and are capable of verify-ing that the linear heat rate does not exceed its limits.
The Excore Detector Monitoring System performs this function by continuously monitoring the AX1AL SHAPE INDEX with two OPERABLE excore neutron flux detectors and verifying that the AX1AL SHAPE INDEX is maintained within the allowable limits specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT using the Power Ratio Recorder. The power dependent limits of the Power Ratio Recorder are less than or equal to the i
limits specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT.
In conjunction with the use of the excore monitoring system and in establishing the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX limits, the following assumptions are made:
- 1) the CEA insertion limits of Specifications 3.1.3.2, 3.1.3.S and 3.1.3.6 are satisfied, 2) the flux peaking augmentation factors are as specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT,
- 3) the AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT restrictions of Specification 3.2.4 are satisfied, l
and 4) the Total Integrated Radial Peaking Factor does not exceed the limits of Specification 3.2.3.
The incore Detector Monitoring System continuously provides a direct measure of the peaking factors and the alarms which have been established for the individual incore detector segments ensure that the peak linear heat rates will be maintained within the allowable limits specified in the CORE OPERATING LlHITS REPORT.
The setpoints for these alarms include allowances, set in the conservative directions as specified in the CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT.
3/4.2.3 and 3/4.2.4 TOTAL INTEGRATED RADIAL PEAKING FACTORS FT AND AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT - T r
q The limitations on FT tionsusedintheanalysi[andT are provided to 1) ensure that the assump-fore 9tablishingtheLinearHeatRateandLocal power Density - High LCOs and LSSS setpoints remain valid during operation at the various allowable CEA group insertion limits, and, 2) ensure that the assumptions used in the analysis establishing the ONB Margin LCO, and Thermal Margin /LowPressureLSSSsetpointsremainvaliddur{ngoperationatthe various allowable CEA group insertion limits.
