When power is greater than 45%, the K(P) multiplier from Figure 2f is applied to the applicable rated condition MCPR limits from Figures 2a thru 2d. At less than orequal to 45% power, the MCPR(P) limits in Figure 2f are applied directly.

For power operations between 45% and 100% RTP(2) without a backup pressure regulator, operating MFLPD shall be < LHGRFAC(P)(

3).NOTE:1 GNF2 LHGR limit has been set down to a maximum value of 11 kW/ft to address Emergency Procedure Guidelines (EPG) requirements.

2 Introduction of the GNF2 fuel type requires use of a power dependent LHGR Correction Factor, or LHGRFAC(P) for power operations without a backup pressure regulator at greater than or equal to 45% RTP. Below 45% RTP,no additional limits are required.

Figure 3 is applicable to both GEl 1 and GNF2 fuel types.3 LHGRFAC(P) limits are provided for option B and option A scram times. If scram times are slower than option B(i.e. T > 0), then option A limits must be applied.Page 18 of 23 COLRI-21NINE MILE POINT UNIT 1CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORTRevision 01Figure 3LHGRFAC(P)
