REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTENS N0DERATOR TENPERATURE COEFFICIENT LINITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION 3.1.1.3 The moderator temperature coefficient (MTC) shall be:

a.

Less positive than 0.9 x 10 Ak/k/*F whenever THERMAL POWER is < 95%

of RATED. THERMAL POWER, b.

Less positive than 0.0 x IF' Ak/k/*F whenever THERMAL POWER is 195% -

of RATED THERMAL POWER, and c.

Equal-to or less negative than the limit provided in the CORE

-OPERATING LIMITS REPORT at RATED THERMAL POWER.

APPLICABILITY: MODES 1 and 2*#,

ACTION:

With the moderator temperature coefficient outside any of the above limits, be-in at least HOT STANDBY within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIRENENTS 4.1.1.3.1 The MTC shall be determined to be within its limits by confirmatory measurements. Mic measured values shall be extrapolated and/or compensated to permit direct comparison with the above limits.

4.1.1.3.2.The MTC shall be determined at the _following frequencies and THERMAL POWER Conditions during each fuel cycle, a.

Prior to initial operation above 5% of RATED THERMAL POWER, after each fuel loading, b.

At any THERMAL POWER, within 7 days after reaching a RATED THERMAL l

POWER equilbrium boron concentration of 300 ppm.
