PREFACE
This NUREG contains the improved Standard Technical Specifications (STS) for General
Electric (GE) BWR/6 plants. Revision 3 incorporates the cumulative changes to Revision 1 and
2, which was published in April 1995 and April 2001, respectively. The changes reflected in
Revision 3 resulted from the experience gained from license amendment applications to convert
to these improved STS or to adopt partial improvements to existing technical specifications.
This publication is the result of extensive public technical meetings and discussions among the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff and various nuclear power plant licensees, Nuclear
Steam Supply System (NSSS) Owners Groups, and the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI). The
improved STS were developed based on the criteria in the Final Commission Policy Statement
on Technical Specifications Improvements for Nuclear Power Reactors, dated July 22, 1993
(58 FR 39132), which was subsequently codified by changes to Section 36 of Part 50 of Title 10
of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 50.36) (60 FR 36953). Licensees are encouraged
to upgrade their technical specifications consistent with those criteria and conforming, to the
practical extent, to Revision 3 to the improved STS. The Commission continues to place the
highest priority on requests for complete conversions to the improved STS. Licensees adopting
portions of the improved STS to existing technical specifications should adopt all related
requirements, as applicable, to achieve a high degree of standardization and consistency.
The Table of Contents is now a Table of Contents / Revision Summary where the revision
number and date are listed for each specification and bases, in lieu of traditional page numbers.
Each limiting condition for operation (LCO) starts with page 1, with a specification, e.g., "2.0" or
bases "B 2.0" number prefix. Subsequent approved revisions to sections will be noted in the
Table of Contents, as well as on each affected page, using a decimal number to indicate the
number of revisions to that section, along with the date, e.g., (Rev 3.3, 04/01/04) indicates the
third approved change and date since Revision 3.0 was published. Additionally, the final page
of each LCO section will be a historical listing of the changes affecting that section. This
publication will be maintained in electronic format. Subsequent revisions will not be printed in
hard copy. Users may access the subsequent revisions to the STS in the PDF format at
(http://www.nrc.gov/NRR/sts/sts.htm). This Web site will be updated as needed and the
contents may differ from the last printed version. Users may print or download copies from the
NRC Web site.

Term Definition
ACTIONS ACTIONS shall be that part of a Specification that prescribes

Required Actions to be taken under designated Conditions
within specified Completion Times.
AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR The APLHGR shall be applicable to a specific planar height
HEAT GENERATION RATE and is equal to the sum of the [LHGRs] [heat generation rate
(APLHGR) per unit length of fuel rod] for all the fuel rods in the specified
bundle at the specified height divided by the number of fuel
rods in the fuel bundle [at the height].
CHANNEL CALIBRATION A CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be the adjustment, as

necessary, of the channel output such that it responds within
the necessary range and accuracy to known values of the
parameter that the channel monitors. The CHANNEL
CALIBRATION shall encompass all devices in the channel
required for channel OPERABILITY and the CHANNEL
FUNCTIONAL TEST. Calibration of instrument channels with
resistance temperature detector (RTD) or thermocouple
sensors may consist of an inplace qualitative assessment of
sensor behavior and normal calibration of the remaining
adjustable devices in the channel. The CHANNEL
CALIBRATION may be performed by means of any series of
sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.
CHANNEL CHECK A CHANNEL CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment, by

observation, of channel behavior during operation. This
determination shall include, where possible, comparison of the
channel indication and status to other indications or status
derived from independent instrument channels measuring the
same parameter.
CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST shall be the injection of a

simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the
sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY of all devices in
the channel required for channel OPERABILITY. The
CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST may be performed by means
of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.

CORE ALTERATION CORE ALTERATION shall be the movement of any fuel,

sources, or reactivity control components, within the reactor
vessel with the vessel head removed and fuel in the vessel.
The following exceptions are not considered to be CORE
ALTERATIONS:
a. Movement of source range monitors, local power range

monitors, intermediate range monitors, traversing incore
probes, or special movable detectors (including
undervessel replacement), and
b. Control rod movement, provided there are no fuel

assemblies in the associated core cell.
Suspension of CORE ALTERATIONS shall not preclude

completion of movement of a component to a safe position.
CORE OPERATING LIMITS The COLR is the unit specific document that provides cycle
REPORT (COLR) specific parameter limits for the current reload cycle. These
cycle specific limits shall be determined for each reload cycle
in accordance with Specification 5.6.5. Plant operation within
these limits is addressed in individual Specifications.
DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 shall be that concentration of I-131
(microcuries/gram) that alone would produce the same thyroid
dose as the quantity and isotopic mixture of I-131, I-132, I-133,
I-134, and I-135 actually present. The thyroid dose conversion
factors used for this calculation shall be those listed in
[Table III of TID-14844, AEC, 1962, "Calculation of Distance
Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites" or those listed in
Table E-7 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1, NRC, 1977, or

"Committed Dose Equivalent in Target Organs or Tissues per
Intake of Unit Activity"].
EMERGENCY CORE COOLING The ECCS RESPONSE TIME shall be that time interval from
SYSTEM (ECCS) RESPONSE when the monitored parameter exceeds its ECCS initiation
TIME setpoint at the channel sensor until the ECCS equipment is
capable of performing its safety function (i.e., the valves travel
to their required positions, pump discharge pressures reach
their required values, etc.). Times shall include diesel
generator starting and sequence loading delays, where
applicable. The response time may be measured by means of
any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps so that the

END OF CYCLE RECIRCULA- The EOC-RPT SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME shall be that time
TION PUMP TRIP (EOC-RPT) interval from initial signal generation by [the associated turbine
SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME stop valve limit switch or from when the turbine control valve
hydraulic oil control oil pressure drops below the pressure
switch setpoint] to complete suppression of the electric arc
between the fully open contacts of the recirculation pump
circuit breaker. The response time may be measured by
means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total steps
so that the entire response time is measured, [except for the
breaker arc suppression time, which is not measured but is
validated to conform to the manufacturer's design value].
ISOLATION SYSTEM The ISOLATION SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME shall be that

RESPONSE TIME time interval from when the monitored parameter exceeds its
isolation initiation setpoint at the channel sensor until the
isolation valves travel to their required positions. Times shall
include diesel generator starting and sequence loading delays,
where applicable. The response time may be measured by

Logical Connectors

1.2 Logical Connectors
PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to explain the meaning of logical

connectors.
Logical connectors are used in Technical Specifications (TS) to

discriminate between, and yet connect, discrete Conditions, Required
Actions, Completion Times, Surveillances, and Frequencies. The only
logical connectors that appear in TS are AND and OR. The physical
arrangement of these connectors constitutes logical conventions with
specific meanings.
BACKGROUND Several levels of logic may be used to state Required Actions. These
levels are identified by the placement (or nesting) of the logical
connectors and by the number assigned to each Required Action. The
first level of logic is identified by the first digit of the number assigned to a
Required Action and the placement of the logical connector in the first
level of nesting (i.e., left justified with the number of the Required Action).
The successive levels of logic are identified by additional digits of the
Required Action number and by successive indentions of the logical
connectors.
When logical connectors are used to state a Condition, Completion Time,

Surveillance, or Frequency, only the first level of logic is used, and the
logical connector is left justified with the statement of the Condition,
Completion Time, Surveillance, or Frequency.
EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the use of logical connectors.

OR and the left justified placement. Any one of these three Actions may
be chosen. If A.2 is chosen, then both A.2.1 and A.2.2 must be
performed as indicated by the logical connector AND. Required
Action A.2.2 is met by performing A.2.2.1 or A.2.2.2. The indented
position of the logical connector OR indicates that A.2.2.1 and A.2.2.2 are
alternative choices, only one of which must be performed.

Completion Times
1.3
1.3 Completion Times
PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to establish the Completion Time

convention and to provide guidance for its use.
BACKGROUND Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) specify minimum requirements

for ensuring safe operation of the unit. The ACTIONS associated with an
LCO state Conditions that typically describe the ways in which the
requirements of the LCO can fail to be met. Specified with each stated
Condition are Required Action(s) and Completion Time(s).
DESCRIPTION The Completion Time is the amount of time allowed for completing a
Required Action. It is referenced to the time of discovery of a situation
(e.g., inoperable equipment or variable not within limits) that requires
entering an ACTIONS Condition unless otherwise specified, providing the
unit is in a MODE or specified condition stated in the Applicability of the
LCO. Required Actions must be completed prior to the expiration of the
specified Completion Time. An ACTIONS Condition remains in effect and
the Required Actions apply until the Condition no longer exists or the unit
is not within the LCO Applicability.
If situations are discovered that require entry into more than one
Condition at a time within a single LCO (multiple Conditions), the
Required Actions for each Condition must be performed within the
associated Completion Time. When in multiple Conditions, separate
Completion Times are tracked for each Condition starting from the time of
discovery of the situation that required entry into the Condition.
Once a Condition has been entered, subsequent divisions, subsystems,

components, or variables expressed in the Condition, discovered to be
inoperable or not within limits, will not result in separate entry into the
Condition, unless specifically stated. The Required Actions of the
Condition continue to apply to each additional failure, with Completion
Times based on initial entry into the Condition.
However, when a subsequent division, subsystem, component, or

variable expressed in the Condition is discovered to be inoperable or not
within limits, the Completion Time(s) may be extended. To apply this
Completion Time extension, two criteria must first be met. The
subsequent inoperability:
a. Must exist concurrent with the first inoperability and
b. Must remain inoperable or not within limits after the first inoperability
is resolved.
BWR/6 STS 1.3-1 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04

Completion Times
1.3
DESCRIPTION (continued)
The total Completion Time allowed for completing a Required Action to

address the subsequent inoperability shall be limited to the more
restrictive of either:
a. The stated Completion Time, as measured from the initial entry into
the Condition, plus an additional 24 hours or
b. The stated Completion Time as measured from discovery of the

subsequent inoperability.
The above Completion Time extensions do not apply to those

Specifications that have exceptions that allow completely separate re-
entry into the Condition (for each division, subsystem, component, or
variable expressed in the Condition) and separate tracking of Completion
Times based on this re-entry. These exceptions are stated in individual
Specifications.
The above Completion Time extension does not apply to a Completion

Time with a modified "time zero." This modified "time zero" may be
expressed as a repetitive time (i.e., "once per 8 hours," where the
Completion Time is referenced from a previous completion of the
Required Action versus the time of Condition entry) or as a time modified
by the phrase "from discovery . . ." Example 1.3-3 illustrates one use of
this type of Completion Time. The 10 day Completion Time specified for
Conditions A and B in Example 1.3-3 may not be extended.
EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the use of Completion Times with
different types of Conditions and changing Conditions.

The Required Actions of Condition B are to be in MODE 3 within 12 hours

AND in MODE 4 within 36 hours. A total of 12 hours is allowed for
reaching MODE 3 and a total of 36 hours (not 48 hours) is allowed for
reaching MODE 4 from the time that Condition B was entered. If MODE 3
is reached within 6 hours, the time allowed for reaching MODE 4 is the
next 30 hours because the total time allowed for reaching MODE 4 is
36 hours.
If Condition B is entered while in MODE 3, the time allowed for reaching

MODE 4 is the next 36 hours.

When a pump is declared inoperable, Condition A is entered. If the pump

is not restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days, Condition B is also
entered and the Completion Time clocks for Required Actions B.1
and B.2 start. If the inoperable pump is restored to OPERABLE status
after Condition B is entered, Conditions A and B are exited, and therefore,
the Required Actions of Condition B may be terminated.
When a second pump is declared inoperable while the first pump is still
inoperable, Condition A is not re-entered for the second pump.
LCO 3.0.3 is entered, since the ACTIONS do not include a Condition for
more than one inoperable pump. The Completion Time clock for
Condition A does not stop after LCO 3.0.3 is entered, but continues to be
tracked from the time Condition A was initially entered.
While in LCO 3.0.3, if one of the inoperable pumps is restored to

OPERABLE status and the Completion Time for Condition A has not
expired, LCO 3.0.3 may be exited and operation continued in accordance
with Condition A.
While in LCO 3.0.3, if one of the inoperable pumps is restored to

OPERABLE status and the Completion Time for Condition A has expired,
LCO 3.0.3 may be exited and operation continued in accordance with
Condition B. The Completion Time for Condition B is tracked from the
time the Condition A Completion Time expired.

On restoring one of the pumps to OPERABLE status, the Condition A

24 hour extension to the stated 7 days is allowed, provided this does not
result in the second pump being inoperable for > 7 days.

When one Function X subsystem and one Function Y subsystem are

is established for Condition C and tracked from the time the second

subsystem was declared inoperable (i.e., the time the situation described
in Condition C was discovered).
If Required Action C.2 is completed within the specified Completion Time,

Conditions B and C are exited. If the Completion Time for Required
Action A.1 has not expired, operation may continue in accordance with
Condition A. The remaining Completion Time in Condition A is measured
from the time the affected subsystem was declared inoperable (i.e., initial
entry into Condition A).
The Completion Times of Conditions A and B are modified by a logical

connector with a separate 10 day Completion Time measured from the
time it was discovered the LCO was not met. In this example, without the
separate Completion Time, it would be possible to alternate between
Conditions A, B, and C in such a manner that operation could continue
indefinitely without ever restoring systems to meet the LCO. The
separate Completion Time modified by the phrase "from discovery of
failure to meet the LCO" is designed to prevent indefinite continued
operation while not meeting the LCO. This Completion Time allows for an
exception to the normal "time zero" for beginning the Completion Time
"clock." In this instance, the Completion Time "time zero" is specified as
commencing at the time the LCO was initially not met, instead of at the
time the associated Condition was entered.

Completion
A single Completion Time is used for any number of valves inoperable at

the same time. The Completion Time associated with Condition A is
based on the initial entry into Condition A and is not tracked on a per
valve basis. Declaring subsequent valves inoperable, while Condition A
is still in effect, does not trigger the tracking of separate Completion
Times.
Once one of the valves has been restored to OPERABLE status, the
Condition A Completion Time is not reset, but continues from the time the
first valve was declared inoperable. The Completion Time may be
extended if the valve restored to OPERABLE status was the first
inoperable valve. The Condition A Completion Time may be extended for
up to 4 hours provided this does not result in any subsequent valve being
inoperable for > 4 hours.
If the Completion Time of 4 hours (plus the extension) expires while one
or more valves are still inoperable, Condition B is entered.

The Note above the ACTIONS Table is a method of modifying how the
Completion Time is tracked. If this method of modifying how the
Completion Time is tracked was applicable only to a specific Condition,
the Note would appear in that Condition rather than at the top of the
ACTIONS Table.
The Note allows Condition A to be entered separately for each inoperable

valve, and Completion Times tracked on a per valve basis. When a valve
is declared inoperable, Condition A is entered and its Completion Time
starts. If subsequent valves are declared inoperable, Condition A is
entered for each valve and separate Completion Times start and are
tracked for each valve.
If the Completion Time associated with a valve in Condition A expires,

Condition B is entered for that valve. If the Completion Times associated
with subsequent valves in Condition A expire, Condition B is entered
separately for each valve and separate Completion Times start and are
tracked for each valve. If a valve that caused entry into Condition B is
restored to OPERABLE status, Condition B is exited for that valve.

Frequency
1.4
1.4 Frequency
PURPOSE The purpose of this section is to define the proper use and application of
Frequency requirements.
DESCRIPTION Each Surveillance Requirement (SR) has a specified Frequency in which

the Surveillance must be met in order to meet the associated LCO. An
understanding of the correct application of the specified Frequency is
necessary for compliance with the SR.
The "specified Frequency" is referred to throughout this section and each

of the Specifications of Section 3.0.2, Surveillance Requirement (SR)
Applicability. The "specified Frequency" consists of the requirements of
the Frequency column of each SR as well as certain Notes in the
Surveillance column that modify performance requirements.
Sometimes special situations dictate when the requirements of a

Surveillance are to be met. They are "otherwise stated" conditions
allowed by SR 3.0.1. They may be stated as clarifying Notes in the
Surveillance, as part of the Surveillance, or both.
Situations where a Surveillance could be required (i.e., its Frequency

could expire), but where it is not possible or not desired that it be
performed until sometime after the associated LCO is within its
Applicability, represent potential SR 3.0.4 conflicts. To avoid these
conflicts, the SR (i.e., the Surveillance or the Frequency) is stated such
that it is only "required" when it can be and should be performed. With an
SR satisfied, SR 3.0.4 imposes no restriction.
The use of "met" or "performed" in these instances conveys specific

meanings. A Surveillance is "met" only when the acceptance criteria are
satisfied. Known failure of the requirements of a Surveillance, even
without a Surveillance specifically being "performed," constitutes a
Surveillance not "met." "Performance" refers only to the requirement to
specifically determine the ability to meet the acceptance criteria.
Some Surveillances contain notes that modify the Frequency of

performance or the conditions during which the acceptance criteria must
be satisfied. For these Surveillances, the MODE-entry restrictions of
SR 3.0.4 may not apply. Such a Surveillance is not required to be
performed prior to entering a MODE or other specified condition in the
Applicability of the associated LCO if any of the following three conditions
are satisfied:

Frequency

1.4 Frequency
DESCRIPTION (continued)
a. The Surveillance is not required to be met in the MODE or other

specified condition to be entered; or
b. The Surveillance is required to be met in the MODE or other

specified condition to be entered, but has been performed within the
specified Frequency (i.e., it is current) and is known not to be failed;
or
c. The Surveillance is required to be met, but not performed, in the

MODE or other specified condition to be entered, and is known not
to be failed.
Examples 1.4-3, 1.4-4, 1.4-5, and 1.4-6 discuss these special situations.
EXAMPLES The following examples illustrate the various ways that Frequencies are
specified. In these examples, the Applicability of the LCO (LCO not
shown) is MODES 1, 2, and 3.
EXAMPLE 1.4-1
SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS
SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY
Perform CHANNEL CHECK. 12 hours
Example 1.4-1 contains the type of SR most often encountered in the

Technical Specifications (TS). The Frequency specifies an interval
(12 hours) during which the associated Surveillance must be performed at
least one time. Performance of the Surveillance initiates the subsequent
interval. Although the Frequency is stated as 12 hours, an extension of
the time interval to 1.25 times the interval specified in the Frequency is
allowed by SR 3.0.2 for operational flexibility. The measurement of this
interval continues at all times, even when the SR is not required to be met
per SR 3.0.1 (such as when the equipment is inoperable, a variable is
outside specified limits, or the unit is outside the Applicability of the LCO).
If the interval specified by SR 3.0.2 is exceeded while the unit is in a
MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability of the LCO, and the
performance of the Surveillance is not otherwise modified (refer to
Examples 1.4-3 and 1.4-4), then SR 3.0.3 becomes applicable.
BWR/6 STS 1.4-2 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04

Frequency
1.4
1.4 Frequency
If the interval as specified by SR 3.0.2 is exceeded while the unit is not in

a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability of the LCO for
which performance of the SR is required, the Surveillance must be
performed within the Frequency requirements of SR 3.0.2 prior to entry
into the MODE or other specified condition. Failure to do so would result
in a violation of SR 3.0.4.
EXAMPLE 1.4-2
Verify flow is within limits. Once within

12 hours after
≥ 25% RTP
AND
24 hours thereafter
Example 1.4-2 has two Frequencies. The first is a one time performance
Frequency, and the second is of the type shown in Example 1.4-1. The
logical connector "AND" indicates that both Frequency requirements must
be met. Each time reactor power is increased from a power level
< 25% RTP to ≥ 25% RTP, the Surveillance must be performed within
12 hours.
The use of "once" indicates a single performance will satisfy the specified
Frequency (assuming no other Frequencies are connected by "AND").
This type of Frequency does not qualify for the 25% extension allowed by
SR 3.0.2. "Thereafter" indicates future performances must be established
per SR 3.0.2, but only after a specified condition is first met (i.e., the
"once" performance in this example). If reactor power decreases to
< 25% RTP, the measurement of both intervals stops. New intervals start
upon reactor power reaching 25% RTP.

EXAMPLE 1.4-3
------------------------------NOTE--------------------------
Not required to be performed until 12 hours after

----------------------------------------------------------------
Perform channel adjustment. 7 days
The interval continues, whether or not the unit operation is < 25% RTP
between performances.
As the Note modifies the required performance of the Surveillance, it is

construed to be part of the "specified Frequency." Should the 7 day
interval be exceeded while operation is < 25% RTP, this Note allows
12 hours after power reaches ≥ 25% RTP to perform the Surveillance.
The Surveillance is still considered to be within the "specified Frequency."
Therefore, if the Surveillance were not performed within the 7 day interval
(plus the extension allowed by SR 3.0.2), but operation was < 25% RTP,
it would not constitute a failure of the SR or failure to meet the LCO.
Also, no violation of SR 3.0.4 occurs when changing MODES, even with
the 7 day Frequency not met, provided operation does not exceed
12 hours with power ≥ 25% RTP.
Once the unit reaches 25% RTP, 12 hours would be allowed for
completing the Surveillance. If the Surveillance were not performed
within this 12 hour interval, there would then be a failure to perform a
Surveillance within the specified Frequency, and the provisions of
SR 3.0.3 would apply.

EXAMPLE 1.4-4
------------------------------NOTE--------------------------
Only required to be met in MODE 1.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Verify leakage rates are within limits. 24 hours
Example 1.4-4 specifies that the requirements of this Surveillance do not

have to be met until the unit is in MODE 1. The interval measurement for
the Frequency of this Surveillance continues at all times, as described in
Example 1.4-1. However, the Note constitutes an "otherwise stated"
exception to the Applicability of this Surveillance. Therefore, if the
Surveillance were not performed within the 24 hour interval (plus the
extension allowed by SR 3.0.2) interval, but the unit was not in MODE 1,
there would be no failure of the SR nor failure to meet the LCO.
Therefore, no violation of SR 3.0.4 occurs when changing MODES, even
with the 24 hour Frequency exceeded, provided the MODE change was
not made into MODE 1. Prior to entering MODE 1 (assuming again that
the 24 hour Frequency were not met), SR 3.0.4 would require satisfying
the SR.

Perform complete cycle of the valve. 7 days
The interval continues, whether or not the unit operation is in MODE 1, 2,

or 3 (the assumed Applicability of the associated LCO) between
performances.
As the Note modifies the required performance of the Surveillance, the

Note is construed to be part of the "specified Frequency." Should the
7 day interval be exceeded while operation is not in MODE 1, this Note
allows entry into and operation in MODES 2 and 3 to perform the
Surveillance. The Surveillance is still considered to be performed within
the "specified Frequency" if completed prior to entering MODE 1.
Therefore, if the Surveillance were not performed within the 7 day (plus
the extension allowed by SR 3.0.2) interval, but operation was not in
MODE 1, it would not constitute a failure of the SR or failure to meet the
LCO. Also, no violation of SR 3.0.4 occurs when changing MODES, even
with the 7 day Frequency not met, provided operation does not result in
entry into MODE 1.
Once the unit reaches MODE 1, the requirement for the Surveillance to
be performed within its specified Frequency applies and would require
that the Surveillance had been performed. If the Surveillance were not
performed prior to entering MODE 1, there would then be a failure to
perform a Surveillance within the specified Frequency, and the provisions
of SR 3.0.3 would apply.

Verify parameter is within limits. 24 hours
Example 1.4-[6] specifies that the requirements of this Surveillance do not

have to be met while the unit is in MODE 3 (the assumed Applicability of
the associated LCO is MODES 1, 2, and 3). The interval measurement
for the Frequency of this Surveillance continues at all times, as described
in Example 1.4-1. However, the Note constitutes an "otherwise stated"
exception to the Applicability of this Surveillance. Therefore, if the
Surveillance were not performed within the 24 hour interval (plus the
extension allowed by SR 3.0.2), and the unit was in MODE 3, there would
be no failure of the SR nor failure to meet the LCO. Therefore, no
violation of SR 3.0.4 occurs when changing MODES to enter MODE 3,
even with the 24 hour Frequency exceeded, provided the MODE change
does not result in entry into MODE 2. Prior to entering MODE 2
(assuming again that the 24 hour Frequency were not met), SR 3.0.4
would require satisfying the SR.

3.0 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENT (SR) APPLICABILITY
SR 3.0.1 SRs shall be met during the MODES or other specified conditions in the
Applicability for individual LCOs, unless otherwise stated in the SR.
Failure to meet a Surveillance, whether such failure is experienced during
the performance of the Surveillance or between performances of the
Surveillance, shall be failure to meet the LCO. Failure to perform a
Surveillance within the specified Frequency shall be failure to meet the
LCO except as provided in SR 3.0.3. Surveillances do not have to be
performed on inoperable equipment or variables outside specified limits.
SR 3.0.2 The specified Frequency for each SR is met if the Surveillance is

performed within 1.25 times the interval specified in the Frequency, as
measured from the previous performance or as measured from the time a
specified condition of the Frequency is met.
For Frequencies specified as "once," the above interval extension does

not apply.
If a Completion Time requires periodic performance on a "once per . . ."

basis, the above Frequency extension applies to each performance after
the initial performance.
Exceptions to this Specification are stated in the individual Specifications.
SR 3.0.3 If it is discovered that a Surveillance was not performed within its

specified Frequency, then compliance with the requirement to declare the
LCO not met may be delayed, from the time of discovery, up to 24 hours
or up to the limit of the specified Frequency, whichever is greater. This
delay period is permitted to allow performance of the Surveillance. A risk
evaluation shall be performed for any Surveillance delayed greater than
24 hours and the risk impact shall be managed.
If the Surveillance is not performed within the delay period, the LCO must
immediately be declared not met, and the applicable Condition(s) must be
entered.
When the Surveillance is performed within the delay period and the
Surveillance is not met, the LCO must immediately be declared not met,
and the applicable Condition(s) must be entered.
SR 3.0.4 Enty into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability of an

LCO shall only be made when the LCO's Surveillances have been met
within their specified Frequency, except as provided by SR 3.0.3. When

----------------------------------------REVIEWER'S NOTE----------------------------------------
The use of any standard other than ASTM D3803-1989 to test the charcoal
sample may result in an overestimation of the capability of the charcoal to adsorb
radioiodine. As a result, the ability of the charcoal filters to perform in a manner
consistent with the licensing basis for the facility is indeterminate.
ASTM D 3803-1989 is a more stringent testing standard because it does not

differentiate between used and new charcoal, it has a longer equilibration period
performed at a temperature of 30°C (86°F) and a relative humidity (RH) of 95%
(or 70% RH with humidity control), and it has more stringent tolerances that
improve repeatability of the test.
Allowable Penetration = [(100% - Methyl Iodide Efficiently * for Charcoal Credited

in Licensee's Accident Analysis) / Safety Factor]
When ASTM D3803-1989 is used with 30°C (86°F) and 95% RH (or 70% RH
with humidity control) is used, the staff will accept the following:
Safety factor ≥ 2 for systems with or without humidity control.
Humidity control can be provided by heaters or an NRC-approved analysis that

demonstrates that the air entering the charcoal will be maintained less than or
equal to 70 percent RH under worst-case design basis conditions.
If the system has a face velocity greater than 110 percent of 0.203 m/s
(40 ft/min), the face velocity should be specified.

perform the safety function assumed in the accident analysis does not go
undetected,
b. Provisions for ensuring the plant is maintained in a safe condition if a loss

of function condition exists,
c. Provisions to ensure that an inoperable supported system's Completion

Time is not inappropriately extended as a result of multiple support system
inoperabilities, and
d. Other appropriate limitations and remedial or compensatory actions.
BWR/6 STS 5.5-9 Rev. 3.0, 03/31/04

5.5
5.5.12 Safety Function Determination Program (continued)
A loss of safety function exists when, assuming no concurrent single failure, no

concurrent loss of offsite power, or no concurrent loss of onsite diesel
generator(s), a safety function assumed in the accident analysis cannot be
performed. For the purpose of this program, a loss of safety function may exist
when a support system is inoperable, and:
a. A required system redundant to system(s) supported by the inoperable

support system is also inoperable,
b. A required system redundant to system(s) in turn supported by the

inoperable supported system is also inoperable, or
c. A required system redundant to support system(s) for the supported

systems (a) and (b) above is also inoperable.
The SFDP identifies where a loss of safety function exists. If a loss of safety
function is determined to exist by this program, the appropriate Conditions and
Required Actions of the LCO in which the loss of safety function exists are
required to be entered. When a loss of safety function is caused by the
inoperability of a single Technical Specification support system, the appropriate
Conditions and Required Actions to enter are those of the support system.

to high radiation areas in place of the controls required by paragraph 20.1601(a) and (b) of
10 CFR Part 20:
5.7.1 High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Not Exceeding 1.0 rem/hour at 30
Centimeters from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the
Radiation
a. Each entryway to such an area shall be barricaded and conspicuously

posted as a high radiation area. Such barricades may be opened as
necessary to permit entry or exit of personnel or equipment.
b. Access to, and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of
Radiation Work Permit (RWP) or equivalent that includes specification of
radiation dose rates in the immediate work area(s) and other appropriate
radiation protection equipment and measures.
c. Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures and personnel

continuously escorted by such individuals may be exempted from the
requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing their assigned
duties provided that they are otherwise following plant radiation protection
procedures for entry to, exit from, and work in such areas.
d. Each individual or group entering such an area shall possess:
1. A radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation

dose rates in the area, or
2. A radiation monitoring device that continuously integrates the

radiation dose rates in the area and alarms when the device's dose
alarm setpoint is reached, with an appropriate alarm setpoint, or
3. A radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate

and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by
radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel
radiation exposure within the area, or
4. A self-reading dosimeter (e.g., pocket ionization chamber or electronic

dosimeter) and,
(i) Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or

equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in
radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation
monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose
rates in the area; who is responsible for controlling personnel
exposure within the area, or

5.7.1 High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Not Exceeding 1.0 rem/hour at 30 Centimeters
from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation
(continued)
(ii) Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or

equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit
television, of personnel qualified in radiation protection
procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation
exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with
individuals in the area who are covered by such surveillance.
e. Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures, or

personnel continuously escorted by such individuals, entry into such areas
shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and
entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. These continuously escorted
personnel will receive a pre-job briefing prior to entry into such areas. This
dose rate determination, knowledge, and pre-job briefing does not require
documentation prior to initial entry.
5.7.2 High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Greater than 1.0 rem/hour at 30
Centimeters from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the
Radiation, but less that 500 rads/hour at 1 Meter from the Radiation Source or
from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation
a. Each entryway to such an area shall be conspicuously posted as a high

radiation area and shall be provided with a locked or continuously guarded
door or gate that prevents unauthorized entry, and, in addition:
1. All such door and gate keys shall be maintained under the
administrative control of the shift supervisor, radiation protection
manager, or his or her designee.
2. Doors and gates shall remain locked except during periods of

personnel or equipment entry or exit.
b. Access to, and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of
an RWP or equivalent that includes specification of radiation dose rates in
the immediate work area(s) and other appropriate radiation protection
equipment and measures.
c. Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures may be exempted

from the requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing radiation
surveys in such areas provided that they are otherwise following plant
radiation protection procedures for entry to, exit from, and work in such
areas.

from the Radiation Source or from any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation, but less
that 500 rads/hour at 1 Meter from the Radiation Source or from any Surface
Penetrated by the Radiation (continued)
d. Each individual or group entering such an area shall possess one of the
following:
1. A radiation monitoring device that continuously integrates the

radiation rates in the area and alarms when the device's dose alarm
setpoint is reached, with an appropriate alarm setpoint, or
2. A radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate

and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by
radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel
radiation exposure within the area with the means to communicate
with and control every individual in the area, or
3. A self-reading dosimeter (e.g., pocket ionization chamber or electronic

dosimeter) and,
(i) Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or

equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in
radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation
monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose
rates in the area; who is responsible for controlling personnel
exposure within the area, or
(ii) Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or

equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit
television, or personnel qualified in radiation protection
procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation
exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with
and control every individual in the area.
4. In those cases where options (2) and (3), above, are impractical or
determined to be inconsistent with the "As Low As is Reasonably
Achievable" principle, a radiation monitoring device that continuously
displays radiation dose rates in the area.
e. Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures, or

personnel continuously escorted by such individuals, entry into such areas
shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and
entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. These continuously escorted
personnel will receive a pre-job briefing prior to entry into such areas. This
dose rate determination, knowledge, and pre-job briefing does not require
documentation prior to initial entry.

Penetrated by the Radiation (continued)
f. Such individual areas that are within a larger area where no enclosure
exists for the purpose of locking and where no enclosure can reasonably be
constructed around the individual area need not be controlled by a locked
door or gate, nor continuously guarded, but shall be barricaded,
conspicuously posted, and a clearly visible flashing light shall be activated
at the area as a warning device.
