NRC MONTHLY OPERATING REPORT OPERATING

SUMMARY

MARCH 1985 UNIT ONE The unit started the month at 100% full power.

At 1958 hours0.0227 days <br />0.544 hours <br />0.00324 weeks <br />7.45019e-4 months <br /> on the 1st the unit was taken to 96% full power for the final stage of physics testing following the IR6 refueling outage. At 1223 hours0.0142 days <br />0.34 hours <br />0.00202 weeks <br />4.653515e-4 months <br /> on the 3rd the unit was reduced further in power to 91% for continued physics testing.

At 1320 hours0.0153 days <br />0.367 hours <br />0.00218 weeks <br />5.0226e-4 months <br /> the unit was taken back to 96% full power and finally attained 100%

operation at 1435 hours0.0166 days <br />0.399 hours <br />0.00237 weeks <br />5.460175e-4 months <br />.

The unit remained at 100% full power until 1140 hours0.0132 days <br />0.317 hours <br />0.00188 weeks <br />4.3377e-4 months <br /> on the 15th. At this time the unit was backed down to 90% power because of a decrease in condenser vacuum.

A circulating water pump trip was the cause of the decrease in vacuum.

The pump trip has been attributed to reduced circulating water flow through the traveling screens due to an increased number of fish (threadfin shad) clogging the screens. The cleaning frequency of the screens was increased and the circulating water pump was returned to service.

The unit was returned to 100% full power at 1630 hours0.0189 days <br />0.453 hours <br />0.0027 weeks <br />6.20215e-4 months <br /> and "emained there through the end of the month.
