adm<strong>in</strong>istrative changes. The follow<strong>in</strong>g schedule shall be <strong>in</strong>corporated <strong>in</strong> the<br />

specifications:<br />

(1) There shall be a report not later than the follow<strong>in</strong>g work<strong>in</strong>g day by telephone and<br />

with<strong>in</strong> 14 days of any of the follow<strong>in</strong>g:<br />

(a) violation of safety limits (see Sec. 6.6.1);<br />

(b) release of radioactivity from the site above allowed limits (see Sec. 6.6.2);<br />

(c) any of the follow<strong>in</strong>g (see Sec. 6.6.2): (i) operation with actual safety system<br />

sett<strong>in</strong>gs for required systems less conservative than the limit<strong>in</strong>g safety system<br />

sett<strong>in</strong>gs specified <strong>in</strong> the technical specifications, (ii) operation <strong>in</strong> violation of<br />

limit<strong>in</strong>g conditions for operation established <strong>in</strong> the technical specifications<br />

unless prompt remedial action is taken as permitted <strong>in</strong> Sec. 3, (iii) a reactor<br />

safety system component malfunction that renders or could render the reactor<br />

safety system <strong>in</strong>capable of perform<strong>in</strong>g its <strong>in</strong>tended safety function. If the<br />

malfunction or condition is caused by ma<strong>in</strong>tenance, then no report is required.<br />

Note: Where components or systems are provided <strong>in</strong> addition to those<br />

required by the technical specifications, the failure of the extra<br />

components or systems is not considered reportable provided that the<br />

m<strong>in</strong>imum numbers of components or systems specified or required<br />

perform their <strong>in</strong>tended reactor safety function.<br />

(iv) an unanticipated or uncontrolled change <strong>in</strong> reactivity greater than one dollar.<br />

A smaller quantity shall be specified for those reactor systems where this is<br />

appropriate. Reactor trips result<strong>in</strong>g from a known cause are excluded, (v)<br />

abnormal and significant degradation <strong>in</strong> reactor fuel or cladd<strong>in</strong>g, or both,<br />
