REPORTABLE EVENT CLASSIFICATION
Any operation or condition prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications.
B.
PLANT OPERATING CONDITIONS PRIOR TO THE EVENT On March 3, 2004, Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station (CPSES) Unit 1 was in Mode 1, Power Operation, operating at 100 percent power and CPSES Unit 2 was in Mode 1, Power Operation, operating at 99.1 percent power.

STATUS OF STRUCTURES, SYSTEMS, OR COMPONENTS THAT WERE INOPERABLE AT THE START OF THE EVENT AND THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE EVENT There were no inoperable structures, systems, or components that contributed to the event.
D.
NARRATIVE SUMMARY OF THE EVENT, INCLUDING DATES AND APPROXIMATE TIMES In November 1992, at end of Unit 1 Cycle 2, fuel assembly C45 was off-loaded and stored in the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP). In April 1998, fuel assembly C45 was reloaded in the Unit 1 core as a center assembly for Cycle 7. From the BURNUP code, the fuel assembly burnup at the beginning of this cycle was 16275 MWD/MTU. BURNUP is the approved source of fuel assembly burnup. BURNUP is run monthly and at the end of each cycle and uses flux map information along with other data to calculate fuel assembly burnup.
