3/4L0EAPPLICABILITY BASES The specifications of this section provide the general requirements applicable

-to each of the Limiting Conditions for Operation and Surveillance Requirements

~

within Section 3/4.

3;0.1 This specification states the applicability of each specification in terms of defined OPERATIONAL CONDITION and is provided to delineate specifically when each specification is applicable.

3.0.2 This specification defines those conditions necessary to constitute compliance with the terms of an-individual Limiting Condition for Operation

'and. associated ACTION requirement.

3.0.3 This specification delineates the ACTION to be taken for circumstances -

not directly provided for in the ACTION statements and whose occurrence would violate the intent of specification. For example. Specification 3.5.1 calls for the HPCI to be OPERABLE and specifies explicit requirements if it becomes inoperable. Under the terms of Specification 3.0.3. if the required additional systems are not 0PERABLE..the facility is to be placed in HOT SHUTDOWN within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and be in COLD SriUTDOWN within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. The unit shall be brought to the required OPERATIONAL CONDITION within the required times by promptly initiating and carrying out an orderly shutdown. It is intended that this guidance also ap)ly whenever an ACTION statement requires a unit to.be in STARTUP within 2 lours or in HOT SHUTDOWN within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

3.0.4 This Specification establishes limitations on changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states when a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met. It precludes placing the unit in a different OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state when the following exist:

a. The requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation. in the OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state to be entered, are not met: and
b. Continued noncompliance with these Limiting Condition for Operation requirements would result in the unit being required to be placed in an OPERATIONAL CONDITION. or other specified applicability state in which the Limiting Condition for Operation does not apply. to comply with the ACTION requirements.

Compliance with ACTION requirements that permit continued operation of the unit .for an unlimited period of time in an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state provides an acceptable level of safety for continued operation. This is without regard to the status of the unit before or after the OPERATIONAL CONDITION change. Therefore, in such cases. entry

3/4.0 -APPLICABillTY {

BASES 3.0.4 (Continued) made in accordance with the provisions of the ACTION requirements. The provisions of this Specification should not be interpreted as endorsing the failure to exercise the good practice of restoring systems or components to OPERABLE status before unit startup.

The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 shall not prevent changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that are required to comply with ACTION requirements. In addition. the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 shall not prevent changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that result from a normal shutdown.

Exceptions to Specification 3.0.4 are stated in the individual Specifications.

Exceptions may apply to all the ACTION requirements or to a specific ACTION requirement of a Specification.

Surveillances do not have to be performed on the associated inoperable equipment (or on variables outside the specified limits) as permitted by Specification 4.0.3. Therefore, changing OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states while in an ACTION. either in compliance with Specification 3.0.4 or where an exception to Specification 3.0.4 is stated, is not a violation of Surveillance Requirement 4.0.1 or Surveillance Requirement 4.0.4 for those Surveillances that do not have to be performed due to the associated inoperable equipment. However Surveillance Requirements must be met to ensure OPERABILITY prior to declaring the associated equipment OPERABLE (or variable within limits) and restoring compliance with the affected Limiting Condition .for Operation.

This specification incorporates the guidance provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

3.0.5 This specification delineates what additional conditions must be l satisfied to permit operation to continue, consistent with the ACTION statements for power sources, when a normal or emergency power source is not {

l OPERABLE. It specifically prohibits operation when one division is inoperable {

because its normal or emergency power source is inoperable and a system.

subsystem, train, component, or device in another division is inoperable for another reason.

BEUNSWICK - UNIT 1 B 3/4 0-2 Amendment No. I

APPLICABILITY BASES 3.0:5 (Continued)

The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statements associated with individual systems. subsystems, trains. components, or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical Jower sources It allows operation to be governed by the time limits of tle ACTION statement associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for the normal or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each system, subsystem. train. component. or device that is determined to be inoperable solely because of the inoprability of its normal or emergency power source.

For example, Specification 3.8.1.1 requires in part that all four emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides for a 72-hour out-of-service time when one emergency diesel generator is not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification

-3.0.5, all systems. subsystems, trains, components, and devices su) plied by the inoperable emergency power source would also be inoperable. T11s would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicabl' Limiting Conditions for Operation. However, the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. If they are not satisfied. ' shutdown is required in accordance with this specification.

As a further example. Specification 3.8.1.1 requires in part that two physically independent circuits between the off-site transmission network and the onsite Class IE distribution system be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides a 24-hour out-of-service time when both required off-site circuits are not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5. all systems, subsystems, trains.

components, and devices supplied by the inoperable normal power sources both of the off-site circuits, would also be inoperable. This would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable LCOs.

However, the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable normal power sources instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. In this case this would mean that for one division the emergency power source must be OPERABLE (as must be the components supplied by the emergency power source) and all redundant systems. subsystems, trains, components, and devices in the other division must be OPERABLE.

or likewise satisfy S]ecification 3.0.5 (i.e. be capable of performing their design functions and lave an emergency power source OPERABLE). In other' words. all emergency power sources must be OPERABLE and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components, and devices'in both divisions must also be OPERABLE. If these conditions are not satisfied. shutdown is required in

accordance with this specification.

In Condition 4 or 5. Specification 3.0.5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these Conditions must be adhered to.

BRUNSWICK -' UNIT 1 B 3/4 0-3 Amendment No. I

APPLICABILITY BASES 4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to ensure the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed- I during the OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS for which the Limiting Conditions for Operation.are applicable. Provisions for additional surveillance activities to be performed without regard.to the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS are provided in the individual Surveillance Requirements.

4.0.2 The provisions of this specification provide allowable tolerances for performing surveillance activities beyond those specified in the nominal surveillance. interval. These tolerances are necessary to provide operational flexibility because of scheduling and performance considerations. The phrase "at least" associated with a surveillance frequency.does not negate this allowable tolerance value and permits the performance of more frequent surveillance activities. It is not intended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that 1

-.specified for surveillance that are not performed during refueling outages.

The tolerance value is sufficiently restrictive to ensure that the reliability associated with the surveillance activity is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the nominal specified interval.

4.0.3 This specification establishes the flexibility to defer declaring affected equipment inoperable or an affected variable outside the specified limits when a Surveillance has not been completed within the specified time

- interval. A delay period of up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified Frequency whichever is less, applies from the point in time that it is' discovered that the Surveillance has not been performed in accordance with Surveillance Requirement 4.0.2, and not at the time that the specified time interval was not met. 4 This delay period provides adecuate time to complete Surveillances that have been missed. This delay perioc permits the com)letion of a Surveillance before complying with ACTION requirements or otler remedial measures that '

might preclude completion of the Surveillance.

The basis for this delay Seriod includes consideration of unit conditions. )

adequate planning, availa)ility of personnel, the time required to perform the Suiveillance, the safety significance of the delay in completing the required -

Surveillance, and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular Surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the requirements.

When.a Surveillance with a time interval based u)on s)ecified unit conditions or operational. situations, is discovered not to lave )een performed when specified, Surveillance Requirement 4.0.3 allows the full delay period of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to perform the Surveillance.

S)ecification 4.0.3 also provides a time limit for completion of Surveillances s tlat'become applicable as a consequence of OPERATIONAL CONDITION changes imposed by ACTION requirements.

APPLICABILITY 4

BASES i

4.~0.3 (Continued)

Failure to comply with specified time intervals for Surveillance Recuirements is expected to be an infrequent occurrence. Use of the delay perioc established by Surveillance Requirement 4.0.3 is a flexibility which is not intended to be used as an operational convenience to extend Surveillance intervals.

If a Surveillance is not completed within the allowed delay period then the equipment is considered inoperable or the variable is considered outside the specified limits and the completion times of the ACTION requirements for the applicable Limiting Condition for Operation conditions begin immediately upon expiration of the delay period. If a Surveillance is failed within the delay period, then the equipment is inoperable, or the variable is outside the specified limits and the completion times of the ACTION requirements for the applicable Limiting Condition for Operation begin immediately upon the failure of the Surveillance.

Completion of the Surveillance within the delay period allowed by this Specification, or within the completion time of the ACTION requirements, restores compliance with Surveillance Requirement 4.0.1.

This specification incorporates the guidance provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

4.0.4 This saecification establishes the requirement that all applicable Surveillance Requirements must be met before entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other applicability state.

This Specification ensures that system and component OPERABILITY reguirements and variable limits are met before entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states for which these systems and components ensure safe operation of the unit. This Specification applies to changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applica)ility states associated with unit shutdown as well as startup.

The provisions of Specification 4.0.4 shall not prevent entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that are required to comply with ACTION requirements.

The precise requirements for performance of Surveillance Requirements are specified such that exceptions to Specification 4.0.4 are not necessary. The specific time frames and conditions necessary for meeting the Surveillance Requirements are specified in the Surveillance Requirement. This allows performance of Surveillances when the prerequisite condition (s) s)ecified in a Surveillance procedure require entry into an OPERATIONAL CONDITIO1 or other specified applicability state of the associated Limiting Condition for Operation prior to the performance or completion of a Surveillance. A

~ Surveillance that could not be 3erformed until after entering the Limiting Condition for Operation Applica]ility would have its time interval specified such that it is not "due" until the specified conditions needed are met.

Alternately, the Surveillance may be stated in the form of a Note as not required (to be met or performed) until a particular event, condition, or time has been-reached.

This specification incorporates the guidance provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

BRUNSWICK - UNIT B 3/4 0-5 Amendment No. I

APPLICABILITY BASES-4.0.5 This specification ensures that inservice inspection of ASME Code Class

1. 2. and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1. 2. and 3 pumps and valves.will be performed in accordance with a' periodically updated version of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Addenda as required by 10 CFR 50. Section 50.SSa. Relief from any of the above requirements has been provided in writing by the Commission and is not a part of these technical specifications.

This specification includes a clarification of the frequencies for performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. -This

-clarification is provided to ensure consister.cy in surveillance intervals throughout these Technical Specifications and to remove any ambiguities relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities.

Under the terms of this specification, the more restrictive requirements of the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. For example, the requirements of Specification 4.0.4 to perform surveillance activities prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps to be testco up to one week after return to normal operation. And, for example, the Technical Specification definition of OPERABLE does not grant a grace period before a device that is not capable of performing its specified function is declared inoperable and takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows a valve to be incapable of performing its specified function for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> before being declared inoperable.

This specification includes a statement that the Inservice Inspection Program for pipe covered by the scope of GL 88-01 will be in conformance with the staff positions on schedule methods and personnel, and sample expansion included in GL 88-01. This requirement may be removed from the technical specifications in the future in line with the Technical Specification Improvement Programs i

3/4.0 APPLICABItiTY BASES

-The_ specifications of this. section provide the general requirements applicable to each of the Limiting Conditions for Operation and Surveillance Requirements within section 3/4.

3.0.1 This specification states the applicability of each specification in terms of defined OPERATIONAL CONDITION and is provided to delineate specifically when each specification is applicable.

3.0.2 This specification defines those conditions necessary to constitute compliance with the terms of an individual Limiting Condition for Cperation and associated ACTION requirement.

3.0.3 This specification delineates the ACTION to be taken' for circumstances not directly provided for in the ACTION statements and whose occurrence would violate the intent of specification. For example. Specification 3.5.1 calls for the HPCI to be OPERABLE and specifies explicit requirements if it become inoperable. Under the terms of Specification 3.0.3. if the required additional systems are not OPERABLE. the facility is to be placed in HOT SHUTDOWN within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and be in COLD SHUTDOWN within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />. The unit shall be brought to the required OPERATIONAL CONDITION within the required times by.promptly initiating and carrying out an orderly shutdown. It is intended that this guidance also apply whenever an ACTION statement requires a unit to be in START-UP within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> or in HOT SHUTDOWN within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

3.0.4 This Specification establishes limitations on changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states when a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met. It precludes placing the unit in a different OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state when the following exist:

a. The requirements of a Limiting Condition for Operation, in the OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state to be entered, are not met: and
b. Continued noncompliance with these Limiting Condition for Operation requirements would result in the unit being recuired to be placed in an OPERATIONAL CONDITION. or other specifiec applicability state in which the Limiting Condition for Operation does not apply to comply with the ACTION requirements.

Compliance with ACTION requirements that permit continued operation of the unit for an unlimited period of time in an OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other l specified applicability state provides an acceptable level of safety for continued operation. This is without regard to the status of the unit before Lor after the OPERATIONAL CONDITION change. Therefore, in such cases. entry {

into an OPERATIONAL- CONDITION or other specified applicability state may be i made in accordance with the prov'isions o.f the ACTION requirements. The provisions of this Specification should not be interpreted as endorsing the

' failure to exercise the good practice of. restoring systems or components to

' OPERABLE status before unit startup;

, BRUNSWICK- UNIT 2: 8 3/4 0-1 Amendment No. I

1 3/4.0 APPLICABILITY BASES-3.0.4 (Continued)

The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 shall not prevent changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that are required to comply with ACTION requirements. In addition. the provisions of Specification 3.0.4 shall not prevent changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that result from a normal shutdown.

Exceptions to. Specification 3.0 4 are stated in the individual Specifications.

Exceptions may apply to all the ACTION requirements or to a specific ACTION requirement of a Specification. ,

Surveillances do not have to be performed on the associated inoperable equipment (or on variables outside the specified limits), as permitted by Specification 4.0.3. .Therefore, changing OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states while in an ACTION. either in compliance with Specification 3.0.4 or where arr exception to Specification 3.0.4 is stated. is not a violation of Surveillance Requirement 4.0.1 or Surveillance Requirement 4.0.4 for those Surveillances that do not have to be performed due to the associated inoperable equipment. However. Surveillance Requirements must be met to ensure OPERABILITY prior to declaring the associated equipment OPERABLE (or variable within limits) and restoring compliance with the affected Limiting Condition for Operation.

This specification incorporates the guiduace provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

3.0.5 This specification delineates what additional conditions must be satisfied to permit operation to continue consistent with the ACTION statements for power sources when a normal or emergency power source is not OPERABLE. It specifically prohibits operation when one division is inoperable because its normal or emergency power source is inoperable and a system.

subsystem. train, component, or device in another division is inoperable for another reason.

~

The provisions of this specification permit the ACTION statements associated with individual systems.. subsystems, trains. components, or devices to be consistent with the ACTION statements of the associated electrical ]ower source. It allows operation to be governed by the time limits of tle ACTION statement associated with the Limiting Condition for Operation for the normal or emergency power source, not the individual ACTION statements for each 1 system, subsyste ' train component, or device that is determined to be inoperable soleh because af the inoperability of its normal or emergency power source.

APPLICABILITY 'l 1

BASES 3.0.5 (Continued) .

For example. Specification 3.8.1.1 requires in part that all four emergency diesel generators be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provides for a 72-hour out-of-service time when one emergency diesel generator is not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5, all systems. subsystems, trains, components. and devices su) plied by the' inoperable emergency power source would also be inoperable. T11s would dictate invoking the applicable ACTION statements of each of the applicable Limiting Conditions for Operation. However the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limits for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable emergency diesel generator instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. If they are not satisfied, shutdown is required in accordance with this specification.

As a further example. Speci fication 3.8.1.1 requires in part that two physically independent circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class IE distribution system be OPERABLE. The ACTION statement provided a 24-hour out-of-service time when both required offsite circuits are

< not OPERABLE. If the definition of OPERABLE were applied without consideration of Specification 3.0.5, all systems, subsystems trains, components and devices supplied by the inoperable normal power sources, both of the of fsite circuits, would also be inoperable. This would dictate invoking .the applicable ACTION statements for each of the applicable LCOs.

However. the provisions of Specification 3.0.5 permit the time limtis for continued operation to be consistent with the ACTION statement for the inoperable normal power sources instead, provided the other specified conditions are satisfied. In this case. this would mean that for one division. the emergency )ower source must be OPERABLE (as must be the components supplied by t1e emergency power source) and all redundant systems.

subsystems. trains. components, and devices in the other division must be OPERABLE or likewise satisfy Specification 3.0.5 (i .e. , be capable of performing their design functions and have an emergency power source OPERABLE). In other words, all emergency power sources must be OPERABLE and all redundant systems, subsystems, trains. components, and devices in both divisions must also be OPERABLE. If these conditions are not satisfied, shutdown is required in accordance with this specification.

In Conditions 4 and 5, Specification 3.0.5 is not applicable, and thus the individual ACTION statements for each applicable Limiting Condition for Operation in these Conditions must be adnered to. '

i BRUNSWICK - UNIT 2 8 3/4 0-3 Amendment No. _l

APPLICABILITY BASES 4.0.1 This specification provides that surveillance activities necessary to ensure the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met and will be performed I during the OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS for which the Limiting Conditions for Operation are applicable. Provisions for additional surveillance activities to be performed without regard to the applicable OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS are provided ih the individual Surveillance Requirements.

4.0.2 The provisions of this specification 3rovide allowable tolerances for performing surveillance activities beyond t10se specified in the nominal surveillance interval. These tolerances are necessary to provide operational flexibility because of scheduling and performance considerations. The phrase "at least" associated with a surveillance frequency does not negate this allowable tolerance value and permits the performance of more frequent surveillance activities. It is not intended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that I specified for surveillance that are not performed during refueling outages.

The tolerance value is sufficiently restrictive to ensure that the reliability associated with the surveillance activity is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the nominal specified interval.

4.0.3 This specification establishes the flexibility to defer declaring affected equipment inoperable or an affected variable outside the specified limits when a Surveillance has not been completed within the specified time interval. A delay period of up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or up to the limit of the specified Frequency, whichever is less applies from the point in time that it is discovered that the Surveillance has not been performed in accor<iance with Surveillance Requirement 4.0.2. and not at the time that the specified time interval was not met.

This delay period provides adequate time to complete Surveillances that have been missed. This delay period permits the comaletion of a Surveillance before complying with ACTION requirements or otler remedial measures that might preclude completion of the Surveillance.

The basis for this delay aeriod includes consideration of unit conditions, adequate planning, availaaility of personnel the time required to perform the Surveillance. the safety significance of the delay in completing the required Surveillance, and the recognition that the most prcbable result of any particular Surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the requirements.

When a Surveillance with a time interval based u]on specified unit conditions or operational situations, is discovered not to 1 ave been performed when specified. Surveillance Requ1rement 4.0.3 allows the full delay period of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to perform the Surveillance. j 1

S3ecification 4.0.3 also provides a time limit for completion of Surveillance t1at become applicable as a consequence of OPERATIONAL CONDITION changes imposed by ACTION requirements.

4.0.3 (Continued) f I

failure'to comply with specified time intervals for Surveillance Recuirements is expected to be an infrequent occurrence. Use of the delay perioc established by Surveillance Requirement 4.0.3 is a flexibility which is not intended to be used as an operational convenience to extend Surveillance intervals ~. ]

If a Surveillance is not completed within the allowed delay period, then the equipment is considered inoperable or the variable is considered outside the specified limits and the completion times of the ACTION requirements for the applicable Limiting Condition for Operation Conditions begin immediately upon ,

expiration of the delay period. If a Surveillance is failed within the delay period, then the equipment is inoperable, or the variable is outside the specified limits and the completion times of the ACTION requirements for the applicable Limiting Condition for Operation begi_n immediately upon the failure of the Surveillance.

Completion of the Surveillance within the delay period allowed by this Specification, or within the completion time of the ACTION requirements. ,

restores compliance with Surveillance Requirement 4.0.1. '

This specification incorporates the guidance provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

4.0.4 This s kecification establishes the requirement that all a plicable Surveillance equirements must be met before entry into an OPERA IONAL  !

CONDITION or other applicability state. 4 This Specification ensures that system and component OPERABILITY requirements j and variable limits are met before entry into OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other J specified applicability states for which these systems and components ensure safe operation of the unit. This Specification a] plies to changes in OPERATIONAL CONDITIONS or other specified applica]ility states associated with unit shutdown as well as startup.

The provisions of Specification 4.0.4 shall not prevent entry into OPERATIONAL  !

CONDITIONS or other specified applicability states that are required to comply  !

with ACTION requirements.

The precise requirements for performance of Surveillance Requirements are specified such that exceptions to Specification 4.0.4 are not necessary. The specific time frames and conditions necessary for meeting the Surveillance Requirements are specified in the Surveillance Requirement. This allows performance of Surveillances when the prerequisite condition (s) s)ecified in a Surveillance procedure require entry into the OPERATIONAL CONDITION or other specified applicability state of the associated Limiting Condition for Operation prior to the performance or completion of a Surveillance. A Surveillance-that could not be aerformed until after entering the Limiting Condition for Operation Applica]ility would have its time interval specified

.such that it is not "due" until the specified conditions needed are met.

Alternately, the Surveillance may be stated in the form of a Note as not required (to be met or performed) until a particular event condition, or time has-been reached.

This specification incorporates the guidance provided in Generic Letter 87-09.

APPLICABILITY' BASES 4.0.5 This specification ensures that inservice inspection of ASME Code Class

1. 2. and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1. 2. and 3 pumps and valves will be performed in accordance with a periodically updated version of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and Addenda as. required by 10 CFR 50. Section 50.55a. Relief from any of the above requirements has been provided in writing by the Commission and is not a part of these technical specifications.

This specification includes a clarification of the frequencies for performing the inservice inspection and testing activities required by Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda. This clarification is provided to ensure consistency in surveillance intervals throughout these Technical Specifications and to remove any ambiguities relative to the frequencies for performing the required inservice inspection and testing activities.

Under the terms of this specification. the more restrictive requirements of the Technical Specifications take precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and applicable Addenda For example, the requirements of Specification 4.~0.4 to perform surveillance activities prior to entry into an OPERATIONAL MODE or other specified applicability condition takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code provision which allows pumps to be tested up to one week after return to normal operation. And, for example, the Technical Specification definition of OPEPABLE does not grant a grace period before a device that is not capable of performing its specified function is declared inoperable and takes precedence over the ASME Boiler and Pressure _ Vessel Code provision which allows a valve to be incapable of performing its specified function for up to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> before being declared inoperable.

This specification includes a statement that the Inservice Inspection Program for pipe covered by the scope of GL 88-01 will be in conformance with the staff positions on schedule, methods and personnel, and sample expansion included in GL 88-01. This requirement may be removed form the technical specifications in the future in line with the Technical Specification Improvement Programs.
