This procedure will direct the shut down of the reactor to enter stable conditions in Mode 3, Hot Standby.

2.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 2.1 PRECAUTIONS 2.1.1 Xenon level variations should be anticipated following a load may bereduction required. and boron concentration adjustments 2.1.2 The shutdown banks should remain fully withdrawn unless the RCS has been borated to at least the hot, xenon-free at hot standby, boron concentration and is being maintained 2.1.3 The boron concentration in the pressurizer should not be different from the RCS by more than 50 ppm.

Pressurizar backup heaters may be energized as necessary to equalize the boron concentration.

2.1.4 Vacuum should be maintained on the Main Turbine following unit shdtdown until the turbine coasts down to approximately 66% of rated speed (1200 rpm) unless an emergency dictates rapid coastdown of the turbine rotor. . l 2.1.5 !

The Main Turbine should be kept on the turning gear '

until metal casing temperatures have returned to ambient.
