2)

Cold shutdown The reactor is in the cold shutdown condition when the reactor has a shutdeun margin of at least 15 &/k and reactor coolant temperature is s200*F.

3)

Refueling Shutdown The reactor is in the refueling shutdown condition when the reactor is subcritical by at least 5% & /k and T is $140*F. A refueling shutdown refers to a shutdown to move fuel to and from the reactor core.

4)

Shutdown Ilargin Shutdown margin is the instantaneous amount of reactivity by which the reactor core would be subcritical if all withdrawn control rods were l

tripped 1sto the core but the highest worth withdrawn RCCA remains fully withdrawn.

If the reactor is shut down from a power condition, the hot shutdown temperature should be assumed.

In other cases, no change in temperature should be assumed.

I h.

Power Goeration The reactor is in power operating condition when the reactor is critical and l

the average neutron flux of the power range instrumentation indicates greater than 25, of rated power.

{

i.

Refuelina Doeration Refueling operation is any operation involving movement of core components (those that comid affect the reactivity of the core) within the containmant I

when the vessel head is removed.

i j.

Rated Power Rated power is bare defined as a steady state reactor core output of 1518.5 ftfT.*

l k.

Thermal Power Thermal power is defined as the total core heat transferred from the fuel to-the coolant.

For Unit 1:

If the Reactor Coolant System raw measured total flow rate is

<174,000 gpa but 2169,500 gpe, Unit 2 shall be limited to s98% rated power.

OPERATIONAL LIMITATIONS

.The following DNB related parameters shall be maintained within the limits shown during Rated Power operation:

1.

T, shall be maintained below 578*F.

2.

Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressurizer pressure shall h.' maintained:

a.

Unit 1:

22205 psig during operation at 2250 psia, or 21955 psig during operation at 2000 psia, b.

Unit 2:

21955 psig during operation at 2000 psia.

3.

Reactor Coolant System raw measured Total Flow Rate (See Basis).

a.

Unit 1 2 181,800 gpm Unit 1 b.

Unit 2 2 174,000 gpa Unit 2*

Basis:

The reactor coolant system total flow rate for Unit 1 of 181,800 gpa is based on an assumed measurement uncertainty of 2.1 percent over thermal design flow (178,000 gpm). The reactor coolant system total flow rate for Unit 2 at rated power is 174,000 gps. This is based on an assumed measurement uncertainty of 2.1 percent over a thermal design flow of 170,400 gps. However, Unit 2 is analyzed to support operation with a reactor coolant system total flow rate limit of 169,500 gpe. This is based on an assumed measurement uncertainty of 2.1 percent over a thermal design flow of 166,000 gps.

If the Unit 2 RCS raw measured total flow rate is less than 174,000 gpa but greater than or equal to 169,500 gps, operation is limited to less than or equal to 98% rated power as described in the note to Specification 15.3.1.G.3.b. The raw measured flow is based upon the use of normalized elbow tap differential pressure which is calibrated against a precision flow calorimetric at the beginning of each cycle.

l For Unit 2:

If the Reactor Coolant System raw measured total flow rate is

<174,000 gpm but 2169,500 gps, Unit 2 shall be limited to s 98% rated power.
