When a subsystem is declared inoperable , Condition A is entered . The 7 day Completion Time may be applied as discussed in Example 1.3 2. However , the licensee may elect to apply the Risk Informed Completion Time Program \Jhich permits calculation of a Risk Informed Completion Time CRICT) that may be used to completion the Required Action beyond the 7 day Completion Time . The RICT cannot exceed 30 days . After the 7 day Completion Time has expired , the subsystem must be restored to OPERABLE status ',Ji thin the RICT or Condition B must also be entered .

The Risk Informed Completion Time Program req~ires recalculation of the RICT to reflect changing plant conditions . For planned changes , the revised RICT must be determined prior to implementation of the change in configuration .

If the inoperable subsystems are restored to OPER/\BLE status after Condition B is entered , Conditions A is exited , and therefore , the Required Actions of Conditions B may be terminated .

The use of "met" or "performed" iA H1ese iAstaAces conveys specific meaning. A surveillance is "met" only when the acceptance criteria are satisfied. Known failure of the requirements of a Surveillance, even without a Surveillance specifically being "performed," constitutes a Surveillance not "met." "Performance" refers only to the requirement to specifically determine the ability t o meet the acceptance criteria.
