Description ofInformation: Attached is the Byron Unit 2 Cycle 8 Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) in the ITS format and W(z) function.
Purpose of Information: This sequence supercedes Sequence 0. This sequence incorporates station-requested changes. This COLR incorporates the ITS format and W(Z) fuu. tion. Byron Station is requested to perfccm a Plant Review (ITR and PORC) of this document. Upon completion of the Plant Review, Byron Station is to transmit the COLR pcution to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission pursuant to Technical Specification 5.6.5.
Please provide NFM (Erich Wurz) with a copy of Byron Station's completed Plant Review and COLR submittal to the NRC.

CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT (coLR) for BYRON UNIT 2 CYCLE 8
. 2.0 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the_ specifications listed in Section 1.0 are presented in the following subsections.;,These limits are applicable for the entire cycle unless otherwise ;
identified. These limits have been developed using the NRC-approyed methodologies specified in Technical Specification 5.6.5. .
2.1 Shutdown Marain (SDM) -
j The SDM limit for MODES 1,2,3, and 4 is:
2.1.1 The SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% AWk (LCOs 3.1.1, 3.1.4, 3.1.5, 3.1.6,3.1.8, and 3.3.9; TRM TLCOs 3.1.b,3.1.d,3.1.f, 3.1.h, and 3.1.j). I The SDM limits for MODE 5 are:
2.1.2.1 SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.0% AWk (LCO 3.1.1) 2.1.2.2 SDM shall be greater than or equal to 1.3% Ak/k (LCO 3.3.9; TRM TLCO 3.1.1 ano 3.1.j) I
- 1 2.2 Moderator Temoerature Coefficient (LCO 3.1.3)
- The Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) limits are:
-2.2.1 The BOL/ARO/HZP-MTC shall be less positive than +3.6 x 10 AWk/*F.
2.2.2 The EOUARO/HFP-MTC shall be less negative than -4.1 x 10d Ak/k/'F.
2.2.3 The EOL/ARO/HFP-MTC Surveillance limit at 300 ppm shall be less negative than or equal to -3.2 x 10" AWW'F.
where: BOL stands for Beginning of Cycle Ufe 4
ARO stands for All Rods Out HZP stands for Hot Zero Thermal Power EOL stands for End of Cycle Life HFP stands for Hot Full Thermal Power
