INSTRUMENTATION RADI0 ACTIVE Lf0010 EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION 3.3.3.9 The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels shown in Table 3.3-12 shall be OPERABLE with their Alare/ Trip Setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Specification 3.11.1.1 are not exceeded.

The Alarm / Trip Setpoints of these channels shall be determined in accordance with the methodology and parameters as described in the REMODCM.

APPLICABILITY: As shown in Table 3.312 ACTION:

a. With a

radioactive liquid affluent monitoring instrumentation chan%1. Alarm /Tripspecification, point Set less conservative than required by the above without delay suspend the release of radioactive liquid effluents monitored by the affected channel, or declare the channel inoperable, or change the setpoint so it is acceptably conservative.

).With less than the minimum number of radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels OPERABLE, take the ACTION shown in Table 3.3 12.

Exert best efforts to restore the inoperable.

instrumentation to OPERABLE status within 30 days

and, if unsuccessful, explain in the next Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report why the inoperability was not corrected in a timely manner.

Releases need not be terminated after 30 days provided the specified actions are continued.

c. The provisions of Specifications 3.0.3 and 3.0.4, are not appilcable.

SURVEILLANCE REOUIREMENTS 4.3.3.9 Each radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channel shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by performance of the CHANNEL CHECK, SOURCE CHECK, CHANNEL CALIBRATION, and ANALOG CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST at the frequencies shown in Table 4.3 8.
