pH 5.5 to 7.5 conductivity 2)kmho/cm (6) The radioactive materials contained in the pool water and in the primary coolant water shall be such that the radiation level one neter above the surface of the pool shall be less than 10 mrem /hr.

(7) During the forced circulation mode of operation, the primary coolant flow rate shall not be less than 1200 gpm.. During

. determinations of reactor power by coolant heat balances, the coolant flow rate may be reduced to 600 gpm providing all other aspects of these Technical Specifications are met.

d. Secondary Coolina System (1) The secondary coolant shall be sampled at a minirum frequency of once per. week and the samples analyzed for pH in accordance with written procedures. Corrective action shall be taken to avoid exceeding the pH limit given below:

pH 5.5 to 9 (2) The concentration o# radionuclides in the-secondary water shall be determined at least once each day the reactor ocerates usino forced convection cooling. The concentration shall be determined at least once per week when not being operated using forced convection cooling.

~

(3) If the radioactive materials contained in the secondary coolant exceed a radionuclide concentration in excess of the values in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table I, Column II, above background, the reactor shall be shutdown and the condition corrected before operation using the secondary cooling system resumes.

(4) The secondary coolant' system shall be placed in operation as required during power operation utilizing forced convection in order to maintain a primary coolant core octlet tenDerature of 125"F or below.

e. Reactor Core and Control Elements (1) The reactor shall not contain in excess of 35 fuel elements.

There shall be a minimum of four operable control elements.
