1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose This Instruction details selected MCR responsibilities for licensed operators.
1.2 Scope This Instruction includes guidance to Unit Operators (UOs) for the proper method of performing Main Control Room (MCR) walk down/inspections. This Instruction also includes guidance for responding to selected off normal events identified during MCR monitoring of plant status.
1.3 Applicability This Instruction is applicable in all Modes. Portions of this Instruction, which are only applicable in Modes I through 4, are specifically identified.
1.4 Background Leading Edge Flow Monitor (LEFM)
NOTE LEFM and venturi-based ICS Points are listed in Table I-I.
The LEFM uses ultrasonic transducers placed in a section of Main Feedwater piping and measures transient time of ultrasonic sound waves. It is very accurate and substantially lowers the uncertainty associated with using venturi-based flow measurement in the secondary side power calorimetrics to determine thermal output of the core. The U1118 Series ICS Points measuring system consists of nozzle venturis placed in the feedwater lines to the individual steam generators. Using the venturi-based flow measurement accuracies associated with reactor power measurement have a 2% uncertainty. A revision to NRC rules provides for a core power (Rated Thermal Power) rise to 3459 MWT when LEFM Calorimetric is used because its uncertainty is 0.6%.
The core power calculation, as determined by secondary side calorimetrics, will be made using the LEFM inputs of feedwater mass flow and temperature. Control of feedwater flow will be by the existing controls from the nozzle venturis. The LEFM is backed up by the venturi-based flow monitoring system. Loss of LEFM results in reverting to the venturi-based monitoring system. Plant equipment is operated in the same manner at the 3459 MWT power level as it is at the 3411 MWT level. If the LEFM becomes unavailable for a duration that exceeds the conditions of the Tech Requirements Manual, the secondary side calorimetrics, is performed with inputs from the nozzle venturis and requires a core power adjustment toward a lower core power based on the 2% uncertainty associated with the nozzle inaccuracies.
WBN Main Control Room 1-PI-OPS-1-MCR Unit I Rev. 0055 Page 6 of 23 1.4 Background Leading Edge Flow Monitor (LEFM) (continued)
The LEFM System includes a fault indication alarm that is provided as part of the plant computer software. This alarm is an audible and visual alarm through the ICS.
This alarm is provided as a new stand-alone screen through ICS and indicates NORMAL, ALERT, or FAIL. Operations is alerted to this by the ICS LEFM points which will turn blue when it is in an abnormal condition.
The venturi-based measurements alarms are suppressed by the LEFM System as long as the system is NOT failed. The alarms become active when the LEFM system is failed. The UI 127 Series ICS Points display LEFM, but toggle and display venturi-based measurement upon LEFM failure. For example, should the LEFM system fail and the venturi-based measurement indicates a core power above the 3411 MWT, computer alarms will be enabled and displayed on the alarm display.

5.2 Reactor Thermal Power SEC. 5.2.1 AND SEC. 5.2.2 APPLIES AT ALL TIMES. SECTIONS 5.2.3, AND 5.2.4 SHALL BE USED, AS APPROPRIATE, TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE: IC.51 Watts Bar is authorized to operate at a Licensed Power Limit (LPL) not to exceed 3459 megawatts thermal as measured by the eight hour average. The one hour core thermal power average over eight hours shall be monitored to ensure Reactor Thermal Power is maintained at or below the LPL as measured by the eight hour average.
Reactor power limits and any required actions are also contained in Attachment 1.
This attachment may be laminated and made available for the OAC to use as a reference during operations.
WBN Main Control Room 1-Pl-OPS-1-MCR Unit I Rev. 0055 Page 11 of23 5.2.1 Specific Guidance for Controlling Thermal Power A. Steady State The term steady state implies that temperatures, pressures, and flows are stable such that the nominal value of reactor power remains stable, subject to statistical uncertainties and normal fluctuations (e.g., feedwater oscillations).
Normal fluctuations (i.e., automatic control system response), random processes (i.e., feedwater temperature changes), and instrument uncertainties (i.e., flow meter measurement uncertainties) may slightly affect core thermal power indications, but these affects do not result in a violation of the licensed power limit license condition when operating at steady state conditions.
B. Pre-Planned Evolutions If an evolution is expected to cause core thermal power to exceed 3459 MWT, then action should be taken to reduce power, (prior to the evolution) in order to maintain sufficient margin from the limit.
C. Compliance No actions are allowed that would intentionally raise core thermal power above the Licensed Power Limit (LPL) of 3459 MWT for any period of time. Operators may not intentionally operate or authorize operation above 3459 MWT. Small, short-term fluctuations in power that are not under the direct control of a license reactor operator (e.g., fluctuations caused by secondary-side control valve oscillations) are not considered intentional.
Prompt action is to be taken to ensure reactor thermal power is maintained with in stated limits following any un-planned event.
Closely monitor thermal power during steady state power operation with the goal of maintaining the one-hour thermal power average at or below the LPL. If the core thermal power average for a one-hour period is found to exceed the LPL, take prompt action specified in Section 5.2.2 to ensure that thermal power is less than or equal to LPL.
The eight hour average is not to exceed LPL.
WBN Main Control Room 1-Pl-OPS-1-MCR Unit I Rev. 0055 Page 12 of 23 5.2.1 Specific Guidance for Controlling Thermal Power (continued)
NOTES
- 1) The 5 and 10-minute average (U21 1805 and U21 18RA) can be of particular value to the operating crew when conducting operations with particular sensitivity to affecting core thermal power. The 5 and 10-minute average are used for trending purposes to allow anticipatory response to changing plant conditions. This can be used as a leading indicator in making decisions for taking prompt action to mitigate rising power conditions.
- 2) The licensed thermal power limit is NOT considered to be exceeded when short duration peaks are normal fluctuations inherent in the design of the controlling system as long as the one-hour average (iJ2l 25) is at or below the licensed thermal power limit.
D. IF core thermal power one-hour average (U2125) exceeds 3459 MWt or an increasing power trend which will exceed 3459 MWt is observed, THEN ENSURE immediate action is taken to decrease reactor power as necessary.
WBN Main Control Room 1-PI-OPS-1-MCR Unit I Rev. 0055 Page 13 of 23 5.2.2 Reactor Power Limits NOTE Due to the calculation method used for U2125 and U2126, the one and eight-hour averages may occasionally change by large amounts. The Operator is responsible for being aware of the entire previous periods trend.
E. REACTOR THERMAL POWER AVERAGED OVER EIGHT HOURS (U2126)
SHALL BE MAINTAINED BELOW 3459 MWT AT ALL TIMES. Routine monitoring of power indications should be used to maintain indicated power at or below 3459 MWT (U2126, NIS Power Indication).
F. If U2126 exceeds 3459 MWT the Unit SRO shall be notified, Reactor Thermal Power must be reduced below 3459 MWT and the requirements of SPP-3.5, Regulatory Reporting Requirements met.
N OTE 3457 MWT is a value based on steady state plant conditions, trended experience, and equipment operating properly. If equipment conditions change, such that normal fluctuations change in magnitude or frequency, a new target value should be discussed by shift management, (in consultation with Operations department management). Any new target will be set to ensure sufficient Operating Margin is maintained.
G. Reactor Thermal Power averaged over one hour (U2125) should be maintained at a target of 3457 MWT.
H. The Unit SRO shall be notified when Reactor Thermal Power is above 3459 MWT on one-hour average (U2125). Action shall be initiated promptly to ensure power trends to less than or equal to 3459 MWT (U2125).
I. The Operations Manager should be notified immediately if the one-hour average of core thermal power (U2125) exceeds 3475 MWT.
J. An SR shall be initiated on any unplanned transient that results in an adverse trend in thermal power. (heater string isolation, MSR isolation, FW reg valve transient, etc)
WBN Main Control Room 1-Pl-OPS-1-MCR Unit I Rev. 0055 Page 14 of 23 5.2.3 Monitoring ICS Instantaneous Reactor Power NOTE The inputto U1127 automaticallytoggles between U2118, U1118, and U0484, as conditions warrant.
A. The lOS Points U2118 series, U2125, U2126 and U1127 series are available for monitoring trends or to alert operators to transient conditions.
B. When U21 18 is identified as being unreliable other available lOS indications and NIS power indications must be used to monitor Reactor Power for compliance with Section 5.2.2. REFER TO Section 5.2.4 for the Determination of Reactor Power.
C. If the LEFM calorimetric is or has been unreliable:
- 1. Power operation may continue per Sections 5.2.2, at 100% RTP (3459 MWT) until the next scheduled performance of SR 3.3.1.2.
REFER TO TRM 3.3.7.
- 2. The most limiting of the indications provided in Section 5.2.4 shall be used to determine Reactor Power as applicable to this Section and Section 5.2.2.
- 3. Monitoring using Ui 127 will toggle between LEFM and venturi-based calculations, if available.
- 4. Monitoring using Uiii8 series points, U1125 and U1i26 may be available or may become available.
WBN Main Control Room 1-PI-OPS-1-MCR Uniti Rev. 0055 Page 15 of 23 5.2.4 Determination of Reactor Power The following should be used on an as needed basis to compensate for a lack of reliable computer data, or as necessary to ensure compliance with Section 5.2.2:
NOTES
- 1) Items A and B are to be used following LEFM failure until the next performance of SR 3.3.1.2.
- 2) Item C may be used for trending when LEFM is failed but the venturi-based calorimetric is good. U1125, UI 126 and U1127 series trends will trend down over time following power reduction to 341 1 MWT.
A. For reactor power at or above 50% AND Tavg within 0.5°F of Tref, the average NIS Power Range drawer meter readings [1-M-13] (if calibrated per SR 3.3.1.6) shall be used. Do not exceed 102% on valid indicated power.
B. For reactor power below 50% OR Tavg NOT within 0.5°F of Tref, the higher reading of the following shall be used:
- 1. The average NIS Power Range drawer meter readings [1 -M-l 3]
(if calibrated per SR 3.3.1.6).
- 2. The average AT power readings [I-M-5].
NOTE U 1127 series points should be maintained reliable as they toggle between their applicable inputs U21 18 and UI 118, however, the LEFM data will be included in the trends.
C. Following performance of I -SI-92-l (SR 3.3.1.2), the trends for U 1118, U 1125, and Ui 126 may be available for use to maintain core power at or below 3411 MWT UI 127 series trends may also be used following LEFM data removal from the averages. (e.g. UII27TM may be used 10 minutes after LEFM failure when Ui 118 calculation is still available.)

Assumptions: 1. Reactor was tripped from 100% power.
- 2. Fuel was conditioned at 100% at the time of trip.
- 3. Reactor critical at 100 hrs after trip. (Assumed no xenon.)
- 4. Ramp from 15% power to 100% at 5%/hr.
- 5. Reactor reaches 100% RTP within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, therefore fuel should not decondition below 100% during the ramp.
Major Steps: 1. Reactor power is raised from HZP to -3.0% RTP
- 2. Unit is ramped to -15%
- 3. Unit is maintained at -15% for 4 hrs
- 4. Unit is ramped to 100% at 5%/hr.
Detailed
Description:
NOTE: See attached plots NOTE: Should deviations occur from the projected power ascension profile, particularly delays, there should be no major effects on the predicted parameters. Should delays occur, lower dilution rates could be expected later due to a greater amount of Xenon build-in during the delays.
Power Increase to 3.0% RTP:
- 1. WITHDRAW CBD to facilitate power rise. (The rod position to attain 3.0% RTP depends upon the CBD position at criticality.)
Ramp Up to -15% RTP:
- 1. WITHDRAW CBD to facilitate power rise.
- 2. IF CBD has been withdrawn to -155 steps and reactor power has not reached 15%
RTP, THEN DILUTE as necessary to raise power to -15% for synchronization of the Turbine-Generator. (The actual amount of dilution necessary depends upon the CBD position at criticality.)
WBN Administration Of The TI-7.012 I Reactivity Briefing Sheets And Rev. 0004 Reactivity Control Plans Page 21 of 23 Power Escalation (BOL)
Continued Operation on Steam Dumps until Generator Synchronization:
- 1. DILUTE -260 gal PW per hour to compensate for Xenon build-in.
- 2. MAINTAIN CBD position.
Ramp Up to 100%:
- 1. DILUTE -17,000 gal PW to raise power to 100% and maintain Tave matched with Tref.
- 2. INITIATE ramp up.
- 3. WITHDRAW CBD to maintain AFD near target.
Full Power Maintenance:
- 1. DILUTE as necessary to compensate for Xenon build-in. Dilution rates may start out at -1000 gal PW per hour, but will taper off as Xenon builds in.
- 2. WITHDRAW AND MAINTAIN CBD at -220 steps.
Critical Parameter Limit Required Action Rate of Power Increase As specified in TI-45 Reduce ramp rate or hold power until limits satisfied.

- Work in a Radiological Control Area (RCA) requires the use of existing RWPs, and may require additional ALARA Preplans. Failure to follow posted Rad control requirements can cause unnecessary radiation exposure. Rad Con should be notified of work having the potential to change radiological conditions.
Before Closing Reactor Trip Breakers (RTB5), the Bank Select Switch should be in MANUAL.
Before shutting down both MG Sets, all rods should be in the core, and RTBs should be OPEN.
Group Demand Position Indicators shall be OPERABLE and capable of determining within 2 steps the demand position for each Shutdown or Control Rod that is NOT fully inserted.
Rod Banks must be operated in prescribed sequence. For WITHDRAWAL sequence is Shutdown Bank A, B, C, D; then Control Bank A, B, C, D (maintaining Control Bank Overlap). The INSERTION sequence is the reverse of withdrawal.
1 For Manual Bank sequencing, prescribed withdrawal/insertion sequence must be followed. Correct bank position is monitored by checking the Step Counters and Rod Position Indicators.
1 Control Bank overlap must be maintained to ensure Acceptable Core Power distributions. When Control Bank A reaches 116 Steps, verify Control Bank B 1
begins to move. Observe this relationship for Control Banks C and D.
With ROD BANK SELECTOR SWITCH in BANK SELECT, Control Bank Overlap is NOT maintained (Control Banks may be moved in Bank Select for Physics Testing).
Control Banks must be maintained above their insertion limits (Lo-Lo Alarm) to ensure:
Adequate shutdown margin Maximum Ejected Rod reactivity limits are maintained Acceptable Core Power distributions In Modes 1 and 2, before withdrawing a Rod Bank from the FULLY INSERTED position, the banks Group Step Counters must be at zero steps, and RPIs for that bank must be indicating +/- 12 steps.

. After CONTROL ROD URGENT FAILURE Alarm [86A], 1-RCAR, ROD CONTROL ALARM RESET, is NOT to be reset UNTIL cause of alarm is determined. Some failures may cause rods to step in if reset before correcting problem.
. Control Banks must be operated to maintain Axial Flux Difference within limits, AND to stay above insertion limits. Boron dilution should be completed BEFORE Control Rods reach the upper limit (Bank D, 220 steps).
1 When possible, the Shutdown (SD) Banks should be FULLY WITHDRAWN during the conditions below to provide trippable reactivity.
\
All Shutdown Banks must be 225 steps when positive reactivity is being inserted by Boron changes, Xenon changes, RCS temp changes, or motion of control rods; except when:
Reactor Coolant System (RCS) temp and Boron Conc (CB) are maintained at HOT STANDBY XENON FREE CONDITION (Mode 4), or RCS is borated to COLD SHUTDOWN CB (Mode 5).
- If the Shutdown Banks cannot be withdrawn, the RCS must be borated as conditions require and the CB confirmed by sampling.
- During Power Operation, all RPIs and Power Range Channels must be monitored for Rod misalignment and abnormal power tilts.
The Rod Control System must be switched to MANUAL if the Power ismatch Channel or any necessary input is out of service.
Do NOT operate with more than one Control Rod inoperable (See AOI-2 for inoperable Control Rod).
- If in Mode 3 or 4, ensure at least two RCS loops in operation with two RCPs in service BEFORE closing Reactor Trip Breakers.
If STEP COUNTER goes below 0 while driving Control and Shutdown rods in:
Realign affected groups Step Counter using UP push button to raise counter output to 000.

refueling, NIS indications may be inaccurate until calibrated at higher power levels. NIS calibration procedures will adjust PRM trip setpoints lower After than normal to ensure excore detectors protect against an overpower condition.
In Mode 2 (less than or equal to 5%), sudden temperature decreases, or C 3 changes greater than 10 ppm, should be avoided. The operator should be alert to secondary steam flow to avoid cooling the RCS below the Minimum Temperature for Criticality of greater than or equal to 555°F, and/or causing a spurious Safety lnjection.[c.2]
All jumper installation and removal shall be in accordance with 0-Pl-OPS-1 .1, Jumper Control Process.
In Mode 2, the trip function of all Turbine Driven Main Feedwater Pumps (TDMFWP) is required when one or more (TDMFWP) is supplying feedwater to the Steam Generators. During the process of placing the first TDMFW pump in service, the anticipatory AFW auto-start channel for the non-operating TDMFW pump is deenergized to prevent inadvertent AFW auto-start during rollup trip testing and overspeed trip testing. Once the operating TDMFW pump has established sufficient feed flow to maintain SG level, the anticipatory AFW auto-start channel for the non-operating TDMFW pump is placed in the trip condition, and the AFW pumps secured. Refer to Tech Spec 3.3.2 Table 3.3.2-1, Function 6.e. and B 3.3.2.6.e.
The Greek symbol (p) precedes steps associated with direct reactivity manipulations, for example: RCS dilution and boration, control rod manipulations.
3.2 Limitations In Mode 2 with Keff less than 1.0, or in Mode 3 or 4, Shutdown Margin shall be maintained greater than or equal to 1600 pcm (T.S. 3.1.1).
$ In Mode 3, at least two RCPs shall be operable with two loops in operation when the Rod Control System is capable of rod withdrawal, and at least one RCP shall be in operation when the Rod Control System is not capable of rod withdrawal (T.S. 3.4.5).
() SOURCE RANGE HI FLUX AT SHUTDOWN alarm shall be in operation any time the Reactor is shutdown with fuel in the Reactor vessel.
D. Simultaneous reactivity addition by rod withdrawal and dilution is not allowed while in the Source range.

NOTES
- 1) In Mode 2, the trip function of all Turbine Driven Main Feedwater (TDMFW) pumps is required when one or more TDMFW pump(s) is supplying feedwater to the Steam Generators. During the process of placing the first TDMFW pump in service, the anticipatory AFW auto-start channel for the non-operating TDMFW pump is deenergized to prevent inadvertent AFW auto-start during rollup trip testing and overspeed trip testing. Once the operating TDMFW pump has established sufficient feed flow to maintain SG level, the anticipatory AFW auto-start channel for the non-operating TDMFW pump is placed in the trip condition, and the AFW pumps secured. Refer to Tech Spec 3.3.2 Table 3.3.2-1, Function 6.e. and B 3.3.2.6.e.
