13.1 TESTS PRIOR TO REACTOR FUELING Prior to initial fuel loading, a preoperational test program will be conducted to assure that specific systems have been properly installed in the Plant and will function as designed. Test procedures will be prepared for each system which will define system functions and equipment to be tested. The procedures will be prepared and reviewed jointly by Consumers Power Company, Bechtel Corporation and Combustion Engineering. These procedures will also define the parameters such as flows, pressures, temperatures, etc, which are to be measured during the tests. The results of all tests will be recorded and retained as baseline operating characteristics of the systems. Any design deficiencies of a system noted during the test program will be remedied prior to considering the preoperational test completed on the system. The preoperational tests will be conducted under the direction of Consumers Power Company with advisory assistance from Bechtel and Combustion Engineering.
The following is a list of preoperational test procedures which will be prepared prior to testing of the systems. This list is in alphabetical order and does not relate to the order of conducting the tests.

DSAR CHAPTER 13 - INITIAL TESTS AND OPERATIONS Revision 36 SECTION 13.4 Page 13.4-1 of 13.4-1 13.4 OPERATION RESTRICTIONS 13.4.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS During initial tests and operations, the normal Plant safety procedures and Technical Specifications limitations will be in effect. In addition to these, special safety precautions will be included in the test procedures and more restrictive operating limitations than those in the Technical Specifications will be imposed. The detailed safety limitations will be incorporated in the specific procedures for each portion of the test program.
During initial operation as with normal operation, the ultimate responsibility for safety rests with the Applicant. Procedures will be prepared by Combustion Engineering and Consumers Power Company, respectively, with assistance from Bechtel where required. These will be subject to review and comment by all parties concerned. All safety considerations will be resolved to the agreement of all parties prior to the conduct of any tests. In the event of a safety question arising during the performance of a test, all testing will halt and will not resume until the matter has been resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the concerned parties.
13.4.2
SUMMARY
Special procedures will be prepared to cover preoperational testing. These procedures will be prepared and reviewed as a joint effort between Consumers Power Company, Combustion Engineering and Bechtel. These procedures will contain the appropriate detail, restrictions and safety precautions which pertain to the specific test in progress. These procedures will contain the sequence of operations, system alignments and appropriate precautions which are to be observed during the tests. As evidenced by the previous discussions in this chapter, special test procedures will be in effect to supplement normal operating procedures for initial system checkout.
