provement Program Analysesfor CooperNuclearStation Cycle 14, NEDC-31892P, January 1991. A cycle-specific analysis was performed for this cycle to verify that the ARTS RWE generic limits in NEDC-31892P remain valid with the use of the Cycle 17 fuel design. He results obtained verified that the existing ARTS limits are still valid f* this cycle.

11, Cycle MCPR Values In agreement with commitments to the NRC (letter from M. A. Smith to the Document Control Desk,10CFR Part 21, Reportable Conditlon, Safety Dmit MCPR Evaluation, May 24,19%) a cycle-spectiic Safety Limit MCPR calculation was performed, and has been reported in both the Safety Limit MCPR and Operating Limit MCPR shown below. His cycle specific SLMCPR was determined using the analysis basis documented in j
GESTAR with the following exceptions:
- 1. De actual core loading was analyzed.

- 14. Contml Rod Dmp Analysis Results CooperNuclear Station operates in the banked position withdrawal sequence (BPWS), so the control rod drop accident analysis is not required. NRC approval to use the generic analysis is documented in NEDE-24011-P-A-US, March 1991. CNS implemented the BPWS into the Rod Worth Minimizer (RWM) l as h=nted in License AmeMment No.117. Removal of the Rod Sequence Control System (RSCS) at l
CNS has been approved by the NRC in License Amendment No.156.
- 15. Stability Analysis Results GE SIL-380 recommeMations have been included in the Cooper Nuclear Station Technical Specifications; therefore, no stability analysis is required as documented in the letter,C.

l Hydraulic Stability Amendment to GESTAR 11, April 24,1985.
Cooper Nuclear Station recognizes the issuance of NRC Bulletin No. 88-07, Supplement 1. Power Oscilla, tions in Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs), and has taken appropriate actions to address the identified concems.

NOTE:
Peak clad temperature (PCT) are s 2127 'F at all exposure and local oxidation fractions are s 0.065 at all exposures.
When in single loop operation, a MAPLHOR factor of 0.75 is substituted for the LOCA analysis factors of 1.0 and 0.86 contained in the flow dependent MAPLHGR curves (Kr) that are applied to the full power nodal exposure-dependent limits.
NRC approval for single loop operation is documented in Amendment No. 94, dated September 24,1985, to Cooper Nuclear Station Facility Operating License, i

' Appendix B Decrease in Core Coolant ihmperaturc Events The loss-of-feedwater heating (LFWH) and the HPCI inadvertent startup anticipated operational occur-rences (AOO) are the only cold water injection events checked on a cycle-by-cycle basis.
The LFWH event was analyzed using the BWR Simulator code (Reference B-1). 'Ihe use of this code is per-mitted in GESTAR H (Reference B-2). h transient plots, flux, and Q/A normally reported in Section 9 are not outputs of the BWR Simulator Code; therefore, these items are not included in this document for the LFWH event.
For the HPCI event, the CPR is presented in Section 11.h transient analysis inputs used for the HPCI AOO - -- - - - -

COOPER STATION 24A5187 Reload 16 Rev. 3 Appendix C SRV Tolerance Analysis l
De limiting overpressure event for Cooper is the main steam isolation valve closure with flux scram j
(MSIVF). De Cycle 17 reload evaluation was performed with the SRV and SV opening pressures at 3%
above their nominal values. De peak vessel pressure reported for the Cycle 17 reload is 1242 psig.
l An SRV tolerance analysis was previously completed and reported in Reference C-1. To demonstrate the i
applicability of Reference C-1 results to Cycle 17, an additional MSIVF event was analyzed with SRV opening pressure of 1210 psig (SRV upper limit). Except for the SRV opening pressure, this evaluation used the same analysis conditions as in the standard MSIVF analysis. Figure C-1 shows the reactor response for j
the MSIVF event with the upper limit SRV opening pressure set to 121'O psig. He peak vessel pressure for i
this case is 1302 psig at the vessel bottom, which is significantly below the vessel overpressure limit of 1375 psig. Rus, the Cycle 17 Upper limit case meets the ASME code requirement for the overpressure protection.
a His evaluation demonstrate compliance to vessel overpressure limits for cycle 17 with the upper limit SRV pressure. Bus, the applicability of Reference C-1 can be extended to Cycle 17.

COOPER STATION 24A5187 R, eload 16 Rev. 3 Appendix D One Thrbine Bypass Valve Out of Service l
in order to support continued operation of Cooper Nuclear Station with the possibility that two bypass valves may be available, the turbine bypass valve (BPV) out of service operation was evaluated. The objective of this evaluation was to calculate the MCPR for the limiting event with one BPV unavailable and determine whether the calculated MCPR specified for the most limiting event for Cycle 17 is affected.
'Ihe effect ofone BPV unavailable is to reduce the pressure reliefcapability in the early part of a pressurization event (i.e., before the relief and safety valves can open) and thus result in an increase in the ACPR. 'Ibe limiting pressurization events that are analyzed on a cycle-specific basis for Cooper are the turbine trip w/o l
bypass, the load reject w/o bypass, and the feedwater controller failure events. 'Ibe turbine trip w/o bypass, the load reject w/o bypass are not affected by one BPV being unavailable because the analyses do not take credit for any BPV's being available. Therefore, only the feedwater controller failure event (FWCF) was analyzed.
1 The same conditions that were used for the Cycle 17 reload analysis for the FWCF were used, except that one BPV was assumed to be unavailable. End of Cycle 17 conditions were used as these are the most stringent.
A conservative representation for the BPV opening charactenstic was assumed. Both Option A and Option B scram conditions were analyzed and the results are provided below.
With one BPV unavailable, the MCPRs are as follows:
