REFUELING OPERATIONS SPENT FUEL POOL FUEL ASSEMBLY STORAGE LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION i

3.9.13 Fuel assemblies stored in the spent fuel pool shall be placed in the j

spent fuel storage racks according to the criteria shown in Figure 3.9-1.

j APPLICABILITY:

Whenever fuel assemblies are in the spent fuel pool.

i

_ ACTION:

With the requirements of the above specification not satisfied, suspend all other fuel movement within the spent fuel pool and move the non-complying fuel assemblies to allowable locations in the spent fuel pool in accordance with Figure 3.9-1.

The provisions of Specifications 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 are not applicable.

r SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS I

4.9.13.1 The burnup of each fuel assembly to be stored in the spent fuel pool shall be ascertained through analysis of its burnup history prior to storage in the spent fuel pool. A complete record of each analysis shall be maintained as long as that fuel assembly is retained onsite.

4.9.13.2 After each fuel assembly move in the spent fuel pool, the position of the fuel assemoly that was. moved shall be checked and independently verified to be in accordance with the criteria in Figure 3.9-1.

DAVIS-BESSE, UNIT 1 3/4 9-14 Amendment No. 130

l REFUELING OPERATIONS BASES I

3/4.9.12 STORAGE P0OL VENTILATION 1

The requirements on the emergency ventilation system servicing the storage pool area to be operating or OPERABLE ensure that all radioactive material released from an irradiated fuel assembly will be filtered through the HEPA filters and charcoal adsorber. prior to discharge to the atmosphere.

The OPERABILITY of this system and the resulting iodine removal capacity are consistent with the assumptions of the safety. analyses.

3/4.9.13 SPENT FUEL POOL FUEL ASSEMBLY STORAGE The restrictions on the placement of fuel assemblies within the spent fuel pool, as dictated by Figure 3.9-1, ensure that the k-effective of the spent fuel pool will always remain less than 0.95 assuming the pool to be flooded with non-borated water. The restrictions delineated in Figure 3.9-1 and the action statement are consistent with the criticality safety analysis performed for the spent fuel pool.
