COLR FOR SEQUOYAH UNIT I CYCLE 20 1.0 CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT This Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) for Sequoyah Unit 1 Cycle 20 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification (TS) 6.9.1.14.

The TSs affected by this Report are listed below:

TABLE 2.2-1 fi(AI) trip reset function for OTAT Trip (QTNL, QTPL) and rates of trip setpoint decrease per percent Al (QTNS, QTPS)

TABLE 2.2-1 f2(AI) trip reset function for OPAT Trip (QPNL, QPPL) and rates of trip setpoint decrease per percent Al (QPNS, QPPS) 3/4.1.1.3 Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) 3/4.1.3.5 Shutdown Rod Insertion Limit 3/4.1.3.6 Control Rod Insertion Limits 3/4.2.1 Axial Flux Difference (AFD) 3/4.2.2 Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor (Fo(X,Y,Z))

3/4.2.3 Nuclear Enthalpy Rise Hot Channel Factor (FAH(X,Y))

2.0 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the specifications listed in section 1.0 are presented in the following subsections. These limits have been developed using the NRC approved methodologies specified in TS 6.9.1.14. The versions of the topical reports which describe the methodologies used for this cycle are listed in Table 1.

The following abbreviations are used in this section:

BOL stands for Beginning of Cycle Life ARO stands for All Rods Out HZP stands for Hot Zero THERMAL POWER EOL stands for End of Cycle Life RTP stands for RATED THERMAL POWER 2.1 Moderator Temperature Coefficient - MTC (Specification 3/4.1.1.3) 2.1.1 The MTC limits are:

The BOL/ARO/HZP MTC shall be less positive than 0 Ak/k/0 F (BOL limit). With the measured value more positive than -0.03 x10 5 Ak/k/"F (as-measured MTC limit),

establish control rod withdrawal limits to ensure the MTC remains less positive than 0 Ak/k/°F for all times in core life.

The EOL/ARO/RTP MTC shall be less negative than or equal to -4.5 X 104 Ak/k/0 F.
