ATTACHMENT 2 LASALLE COUNTY STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 Docket Nos. 50-373 and 50-374 Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-11 and NPF-18 Proposed Technical Specifications Markups
Design Features 4.0 LaSalle 1 and 2 4.0-2 Amendment No.
207/194 4.0 DESIGN FEATURES (continued) 4.3 Fuel Storage 4.3.1 Criticality 4.3.1.1 The spent fuel storage racks are designed and shall be maintained with:
- a.
keff 0.95 if fully flooded with unborated water, which includes an allowance for uncertainties as described in either: (1) Section 9.1.2 of the UFSAR, or (2) AREVA NP Inc. Report No. ANP-2843(P),
"LaSalle Unit 2 Nuclear Power Station Spent Fuel Storage Pool Criticality Safety Analysis with Neutron Absorbing Inserts and Without Boraflex,"
Revision 1, dated August 2009, for the Unit 2 spent fuel storage racks with rack inserts.
- b.
A nominal 6.26 inch center to center distance between fuel assemblies placed in the storage racks.
- c.
For Unit 2 only, spent fuel shall only be stored in storage rack cells containing a neutron absorbing rack insert. The neutron absorbing rack inserts shall have a minimum certified 10B areal density greater than or equal to 0.0086 grams 10B/cm2. The approved inserts are those described in to the letter from P. Simpson to the NRC, dated October 5, 2009.
- d.
Fuel assemblies having a maximum kinf of 1.275 in the normal reactor core configuration at cold conditions.The combination of U-235 enrichment and gadolinia loading shall be limited to ensure fuel assemblies have a maximum k-infinity of 0.9185 for all lattices in the top of the assembly, a maximum k-infinity of 0.8869 for all lattices in the intermediate portion of the assembly, and a maximum k-infinity of 0.8843 for all lattices in the bottom of the assembly as determined at 4°C in the normal spent fuel pool in-rack configuration. The bottom, intermediate, and top zones are between 0"-96",
96"-126", and greater than 126" above the bottom of the active fuel.
