2 Cycle 26 Core Operating Limits Report Implementation Instructions for Revision 0 Revision Description and CR Tracking MCEI-0400-368 Page2 Revision 0 Revision O of the McGuire Unit 2 Cycle 26 COLR contains limits specific to the reload core. There is no CR associated with this revision.

The 50.59 AR is 02224883.

Implementation Schedule The McGuire Unit 2 Cycle 26 COLR requires the reload 50.59 be approved prior to implementation and fuel loading. Revision O may become effective any time during No MODE between cycles 25 and 26, but must become effective prior to entering MODE 6 which starts cycle 26. The McGuire Unit 2 Cycle 25 COLR will cease to be effective during No MODE between cycles 25 and 26. Data Files to be Implemented No data files are transmitted as part of this document.
