1.7 A system, subsystem, train, component or device shall be OPERABLE or have OPERABILITY when it is capable of performing its specified l

safety function (s).

Implicit in this definition shall be the assumption that all necessary attendant instrumentation, controls, electric power, cooling or seal water, lubrication or other

also capable of performing their necessary s'upport function (s).

PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) l 1.8 The PROCESS' CONTROL PROGRAM contains the current formulas, sampling.

l analyses, test, and determinations to be made to ensure that processing and packaging of solid radioactive wastes based on i

demonstrated processing of actual or simulated wet solid wastes will j

be accompitshed in such a way as to.assu're compliance with 10 CFR l

e 5.0 DESIGN FEATURES 5.1 SITE LOCATION The Yankee Nuclear Power Station is located in the town of Rowe, Massachusetts, three-quarters of a mile south of the Vermont-Massachusetts border. The site is at the bottom of a deep valley along the Deerfield River on the southeast bank of Sherman Reservoir. The geographical coordinates of the centerline of the reactor containment structure (Vapor container) are as.follows:

Latitude N 42* 43' 41' Longitudes W 72* 55' 42' 5.2 FUEL STORAGE CRITICALITY 5.2.1 The spent fuel storage racks are designed and shall be maintained with-a center-to-center distance between fuel assemblies placed in the storage racks to ensure a k ort

' equivalent to 0.95 with the spent fuel storage areas flooded 1

with unborated water. The k,gg of 0.95 includes a conservative allowance of 3% Ak/k for uncertainties.

DRAINAGE 5.2.2 The spent fuel pit is designed and shall be maintained to

~

prevent inadvertent draining of the pit.

CAPACITY 5.2.3 The spent fuel pit is designed and shall be maintained with a storage capacity limited to no more than 540 fuel assemblies.
