SUMMARY
OF CHANGE APPROVAL DATE 1 Technical Specification references were added to each Figure. 7/11/90 2 Correction to several typographical errors were made. 11/14/90 References to the Figures were provided in the thermal margins discussion in the introduction.
Dates and revision numbers of various references were provided.
3 Revise document to reflect the Cycle 13 design and (R,Y.h' $((4/
safety analysis results. APLHGR limits (Figures 8 8 and 9) for two new fuel designs were added. Also the MCPR limit (Figure 10) changed from 1,51 to 1.48.

9 TR #066 Rev 3 Page 2 of 15 INTRODUCTION Generic Letter 88-16 provides guidance for Technical Specification changes concerning cycle-specific limits. The 99neric letter provides a vehicle for the removal of cycle specific parameters from the Technical Specification and the maintenance of these values within a Core Operating Limits Report (COLR). The Technical Specification modification also establishes reporting requirements and includes definitions supporting the proposed changes. The CC'.R, including any mid-cycle revisions, will be provided for each reload cycle.
This Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of OC Technical specification 6.9.lf. The information in this report was reviewed and approved for use at Oyster Creek by means of the Cycle 13 Reload Information and Safety Analysis Report (TR-76-rev 0) dated March 1991. The Cycle 13 fuel / core operating limits were generated using the NRC approved codes and methodologies identified in References 1 through 11.
For each GE fuel design the APLHGR limite provided in the COLR for four-loop operation are calculated to be the same as the five-loop limits at all exposure levels provided the idle loop is unisolated. If the idle loop has both its auction and discharge valves closed the loop is isolated as defined in Reference 7 and a 0.98 KAPLHGR multiplier must be applied at all exposure levels. Requirements for operation with an idle loop are provided in Technical Specification 3.3.F.
The ENC VB fuel five-loop APLHGR limits have been removed and replaced with the more conservative four-loop values for both four and five leop operation.
During power operation thermal margins should be maintained within the specified limits. If at any time during power operation it is determined by normal surveillance that the limiting value for APLHGR (Figures 1-9), LLHGR (Figure 12) or CPR (Figures 10 and 11) is being exceeded action shall be initiated to restore operation to within the prescribed limits as specified in Technical Specification Section 3.10.
