' methodology specified in Specification 5.6.6 (Ref.1).

2.I RCS Pressure and Temperature (P/T) Limits (LCO 3.4.3) 2.1.1 The RCS temperature rate-of-change limits are (Ref. 2):

a. A maximum heatup of 100 "F in any 1-hour period.

b. A maximum cooldown of 100 'F in any 1-hour period

c. A maximum temperature change ofless than or egne! to 10 F in any 1-hour period during inservice hydrostatic and leak testing operations above the heatup and cooldown limit curves.

2.1.2 The RCS P/T limits for heamp and cooldown are specified by Figures 2.1-I and 2.1-2, respectively.

2.2 Cold Overpressure Protection System (COPS) Setpoints (LCO 3.4.12) i The power-operated relief valves (PORVs) shall each have lift settir.gs in accordance with Figure 2.2-1.
