MILLSTONE POWER STATION UNIT 3 CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT. CYCLE 12 In accordance with the Millstone Power Station Unit 3 Technical Specifications, Section 6.9.1.6.d, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc., hereby submits, as Enclosure 1, the Cycle 12 Core Operating Limits Report (COLR).

The Millstone Power Station Unit 3 COLR has been revised to incorporate several changes, including those specific to Cycle 12 operation. Changes include the following:

  • Revisions to overtemperature AT parameters, overpower AT parameters, and reactor core safety limits
  • Changes due to incorporation of License Amendment 236 for relocation of cycle specific parameters to the COLR
  • Editorial changes and clarifications of analytical methods references The COLR has been incorporated into the Millstone Power Station Unit 3 Technical Requirements Manual.

If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact Mr. David W.

Dodson at (860) 447-1791, extension 2346.

2.14.1 The Shutdown Margin Monitor (SMM) minimumn count rate and Alarm Ratio Setting to mneet LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION (LCO) 3.3.5 shall be as shown below.

Tech. Spec. LCO SMM Alarm Ratio Setting Min. Count Rate (counts/sec) 3.3.5.a 1.50 1.0 1.25 0.6 3.3.5.b.1 1.50 0.50 1.25 0.35 3.3.5.b.2 1.50 0.35 1.25 0.25 The combination of the SMM Alarm Ratio setting and minimum count rate accounts for the time lag between the indicated and actual count rates, as well as other uncertainties. The specified SMM Alarm Ratio setting ensures that the assumption that an alarm is generated at flux doubling in the Boron Dilution Event analysis remains valid. The count rate is displayed on the SMM.

2.15 Refueling Boron Concentration (Specification 3/4.9.1.1) 2.15.1 The boron concentration of all filled portions of the Reactor Coolant System and the refueling cavity shall be maintained at a boron concentration of greater than or equal to 2600 ppm.

Limit not applicable during either a THERMAL POWER ramp in excess of 5% of RATED THERMAL POWER per minute or a THERMAL POWER step in excess of 10% of RATED THERMAL POWER.

Section 2.14 was prepared by Dominion based on boron dilution analyses performed by Westinghouse.

This boron concentration bounds the condition of kerff 0.95 (all rods in less the most reactive two rods) and subcriticality (keff:< 1.0 with all rods out) during the Cycle 11/12 refueling outage.
