t A.

PURPOSE This procedure provides actions to continue plant cooldown an'd depressurization to cold shutdown, with no accident in progress, under, conditions that allow for the potential fo.-mation of a void in the upper head region without a vessel level system available to monitor void growth.

B.

ENTRY CONDITIONS This procedure was written for Modes 1, 2 and 3 when near no load conditions. Using this procedure when not in these modes requires a step by step evaluation to determine if the required action is still applicable to current plant conditions.

This procedure is entered frotu E0P 35 ES-0.2, NATURAL CIRCULATION C00LDOWN, after completing the first eleven steps.

v STEP ACTION / EXPECTED RESPONSE RESPONSE NOT QBTAINED CAUTION 1.

If SI actuation occurs during this procedure, E0P 35 E-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION, should be performed.

2.

The first eleven steps of E0P 35 ES-0.2, NATURAL CIRCULATION C00LDOWN should be performed before continuing with this procedure.

NOTE 1.

Foldout page should be open.

2.

RCPs should be run in order of priority to provide normal PZR spray, (2, 1, then 3 or 4) 3.

If conditions can be established for starting an RCP during this procedure, Step 1 should be repeated.
