If Specifications 3.4.A.7 and 3.4.A.8 cannot be met, the, requirements of Specification 3.4.A.6 will be met and work will be initiated to meet minimum operability requirements of 3.4.A.7 and 3.4.A.8.
10.
The core spray system is not required to be operable when the following conditions are met:
a.
The reactor mode switch is locked in the " refuel" or " shutdown" p >sition.
b.
(1)
There is an operable flow path capable of taking suction from the condensate storage tank and transferring water to the reactor vessel, and i
(2)
The fire protection system is operable.
c.
The reactor coolzt system is maintained at less than 2120 F and vented (except during reactor vessel pressure testing).
d.
At least one core spray pump, and system components necessary to deliver rated core spray flow to the reactor vessel, must remain operable to the extent that the pump and any necessary valves can be started or operated from the control room or from local control stations, and the torus is mechanically intact.
e.
(1)
No work shall be performed on the reactor or its connected systems which could result in lowering the reactor water level to less than 4'8" above the top of the active fuel and the condensate storage tank level is greater than thirty five (35) feet (360,000 gallons). At least two redundant systems including core spray pumps and system components must remain operable as defined in d. above OR (2)
Tne recctor vessel head, fuel pool gate, and separator-dryer pool gates are removed and the water level is above elevation 117 feet.
NOTE: When filling the reactor cavity from the condensate storage tank and draining the reactor cavity to the condensate storage tank, the 35 foot limit does not apply provided there is sufficient amount of water to complete the flooding operation.
B.
Automatic Deptessurization System 1.
Five electromatic relief valves, which provide the automatic depressurization and pressure relief functions, shall be operable when the reactor water temperature is greater than 2120 F and pressurized above 110 psig, except as specified in 3.4.B.2 and during Reactor Vessel Pressure Testing consistent with Specifications 1.39 and 3.3.A.(i).

2.
Maintenance and repair, including draining of the suppression pool, may be performed provided that the following conditions are satisfied:
- a. The reactor mode switch is locked in the refuel or shutdown position.
b.
(1) There is an OPERABLE flow path capable of taking suction from the condensate storage tank and transferring water to the reactor vessel, and (2) The fire protection system is OPERABLE.
- c. The reactor coolant system is maintained at less than 212' F and vented.
- d. At least one core spray pump, and system components necessary to deliver rated core spray flow to the reactor vessel, must remain OPERABLE to the extent that the pump and any necessary valves can be started or operated from the control room or from local control stations, and the torus is mechanically intact.
- e. (1) No work shall be performed on the reactor or its connected systems which could result in lowering the reactor water level to less than 4'8" above the TOP OF the ACTIVE FUEL and the condensate storage tank level is greater than thirty five (35) feet (360,000 gallons). At least two redundant systems including core spray pumps and system components must remain OPERABLE as defined in d. above.
or (2) The reactor vessel head, fuel pool gate, and separator-c' pool gates are removed and the water level is above ele 117 feet.
NOTE:
When filling the reactor cavity from tu condensate storage tank and draining the reactor cavity to the l
condensate storage tank, the 35 foot limit does not l
apply provided there is sufficient amount of water to complete the flooding operation.
