a 3.1.7 Moderator Tenperature Coefficient of Reactivity Specification 3.1.7.1 The moderator temperature coefficient (MIC) shall be non-posicive whenever thermal power is >95% of rated thermal power and shall be less positive than 0.5 x 10-4 Ak/k/*F whenever thenral power is <95% of rated themal power and the reactor is not shutdown.

3.1.7.2 The MIC shall be detennined to be within its limits by confinnatory measurements prior to initial operation above 5% of rated thermal power after each fuel loading. MIC measured values shall be extra-polated and/or ccznpensated to permit direct cxanparison with the limits in 3.1.7.1 above.

Bases A non-positive moderator coefficeint at power levels above 95% of rated power is specified such that the maximun clad tenperatures will not exceed the Final Acceptance Criteria based on IOCA analyses. Below 95% of rated power the Final Acceptance Criteria will not be exceeded with a positive moderator tsuperature coefficient of +0.5 x 10-4 Ak/k/ F mrrected to 95%

of rated power. All other accident analyses as reported in the FSAR have been performed for a range of moderator tenperature coefficients including

+0.5 x 10-4 Ak/k/*F.
