l Desenption ofInformation: Attached is the Braidwood Unit 2, Cycle 6 Operating Limits Report (OLR).
Purpose ofInformation: Braidwood station is requested to perform an On-Site Review (OSR.) of this document. Upon completion of the OSR, Braidwood Station is to notify llany Pontious (DO x7205) of the Nuclear Licensing Department. Nuclear Licensing will then transmit the OLR to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission pursuant to Technical Specification 6.9.1.9. Please provide NFS with a copy of Braidwood Station's completed OSR for incorporation into the BR2C6 reload licensing file.

This Radial Peaking Factor Limit Report is provided in accordance with Paragraph 6.9.1.9 of the Braidrood Unit 2 Nuclear Plant Technical Specifications.
The Fxy limits for RATED THERMAL POWER within specified core planes for Cycle 6 shall be:
a: For the lower core region from greater than or equal to 0% to less than or equal to 50%:
- 1. For all core planes containing bank "D" control rods:
F "" s 2.803 y
- 2. For all unrodded core planes:
Fy""s 1.729 b: For the upper core region from greater than 50% to less than or equal to 100%:
- 1. For all core planes containing bank "D" control rods:
Fy"" s 2.103
- 2. For all unrodded core planes:
F ""s 1.810 y
These Fxy(z) limits were used to confirm that the heat flux hot channel factor FQ(z) will be limited to the Technical Specification values of:
Fo(z) s [110] [K(z)]
for P > 0.5 and, P
Fo(z) s [5.00] [K(z)]
for P s 0.5 assuming the most limiting axial power distributions expected to result from the insertion and removal of Control Banks C and D dunng operation, including the accompanying variations in the axial xenon and power distnbutions as described in the ' Power Distribution Control and Load Following Procedures,"
WCAP-8403, September 1974. Therefore, these Fxy limits provide assurance that the initial conditions assumed in the LOCA analysis and the ECCS acceptance criteria of 10 CFR 50.46 are met.
See the attached table and figure for [ Fo(z) x P,,i] vs. Axial Core Height information.
