These limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies specified in Technical Specification 6.2.C.
3.1 Moderator Temperature Coefficient (TS 3.1.E and TS 5.3.A.6.b) 3.1.1 The Moderator Temperature Coefficient (MTC) limits are:
+6.0 pcm/o~
at less than 50 percent of RATED POWER, or
+6.0 pcm/o~
at 50 percent of RATED POWER and linearly decreasing to 0 pcm/o~
at RATED POWER 3.2 Control Bank Insertion Limits (TS 3.12.A.2) 3.2.1 'fie control rod banks shall be limited in physical insertion as shown in Figure A-1.
3.2.2 The rod insertion limit for the A and B control banks is the l l l y withdrawn position as shown on Figure A-1.
