4.7.1.7.2 The above required turbine overspeed protection system shall be demonstrated OPERABLE:

By cycling each of the following valves through one complete cycle of full travel a.

and verifying movement of each of the valves through one complete cycle by direct observation:

1.

Four Turbine Throttle valves at least once per 31. days, j

2.

Four Turbine Governor valves at least once per 31 days,
