| Title | High Conductivity Readings in Gamma Pool |
| Event Description | On 4/22/04, around 13:30 EDT, after the irradiator shielding pool had been vacuumed, pool water conductivity exceeded 100 microsiemens per centimeter. The licensee initiated a change of the resin beds and observed pool water conductivity to decrease, as expected. On 4/23/04, the licensee noticed that pool water conductivity had increased to 110 microsiemens per centimeter. New resin beds are being placed in service today (4/26/04) by 18:00 and its is expected that pool water conductivity will decrease from 201 microsiemens to levels of less than 20 microsiemens per centimeter within 24 to 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> at the current recirculation rate through the resin beds. There are no personnel safety issues involved with this incident. The licensee will contact the Operations Center if the expected water pool conductivity does not return to normal operating levels. |
