L- AND P-REACTOR TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The current L- and P-Reactor Technical Specifications (Ref. 4-26, 4 2 were developed in accordance with. DOE Order 5480.6 (Ref 4-4). As stat in Section 4.2, DOE Order 5480.6 requires that DQE-owned reactors follow tlw requirements of 10 CFR 50.36 (Ref 4-17). The current L- and P-Rieactor Technical Spec cations comply with 10 CFR S0.36 and were developed based on the NUREG-1431 (R 4-18) format for Westinghouse Plants (MERITS). 

Revisions to the and P-ILeact( Technical Specifications will continue to be made to keep the Technical Specifications current so that they reflect L- and P-Reactor Disassembly Basins as they e st and as tfa are anafyzed in this BIO. The L- and P-Reactor Techmcal Specifications will be revised to incoiporate tiie requirements of Section 7.2 that are related to the L- and P-Reactor Disassembly Basins once this BIO is approved by DOE. Modifications to the L- and P-Reactor Disassembfy Basins, des changes, and changes to the L- and P-Reactor Technical SpedficatuHia shall be sutgected the USQ process pursuant to RDP 12.03 of WSRC Manual RD-1 (Ref 4-19). 

The latest safety documentation update for K-Reactor in Cold Standby is discussed in Section 4.0 of this BIO and-consists primarily of the K-Reactor Safety Analysis Report ef 3-5), the K-Reactor Technical Specifications (Ref. 3-6), and the K-Reactor Cold Standby Plan O f. 3-3). These documents provide for storage and handling of unirradiated fuel and irradiated components and storage and processing of contaminated moderator. The latest safety documentation for L-and F-Reactor Disassembly Basins is also discussed in Section 4.0 of this BIO. These documents consist mainly of the L- and P-Reactor T hnical Specifications, L-Reactor Cold Shutdown Plan, P-Area Standby Plan, and the Transfer Packages for 100-L and P Area Facilities. These documents provide for storage and handling of irradiated components. 

In order to prevent a credible criticality event involving the handling of fuel assen lies in the K-, L-, and P-Reactor Disassembly Basins during normal operations, the Technical Specifications (Ref. 6-3, 6, 6-5), Limiting Conditions for Operations 3.9.3, impose restrictions for handling and storing fiiel.as5 nblies in the Disassembly Basins. 

Methodically Engineered Restructured and Improved Technical Specifications [MERITS]). The current L, andJ >Reactor Technical Spcdficatioas meet the intent of DOE Order 5480.22 ef. 7-20), but da not comply with some of the content and format provisions. WSRC has submitted a Compliance Assessment and Implementation Rqjoit (Ref. 7-21) for DOE Order 5480.22 with a compliance schedule and compensatory measures for K-Reactor and an exemption request for L- and P-Reaaors.
