CNS TS Section 2.0, "Safety Limits," paragraph 2.1.1.3 states, "Reactor vessel water level shall be greater than the top of active irradiated fuel."  Safety Limit 2.1.1.3 is maintained through the TS Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) applicability, actions, and notes. The CNS TSs require certain safety systems to be OPERABLE during "operations with a potential for draining the reactor vessel" (OPDRVs). The proposed changes would replace existing TS requirements associated to OPDRVs with revised TSs providing an alternative requirement for Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) Water Inventory Control (WIC). These alternative requirements would protect Safety Limit 2.1.1.3.
