Unit No. 2 Plant Testing Status
The status of the licensee's Phase II Preoperational Testing Program was
"
reviewed and is summarized below:
Testing Completed 29.3%
Testing in Progress 19.2%
Testing not Started 43.4%
Test Data Approved 8.1%
l
"A review of turnover records of systems remaining to be turned over to r
startup from construction indicates that 80% of the systems or portions of system had been turned over to startup for testing.
J 9. ' Unit No.1 Plant Operation The inspector reviewed plant operation to ascertain conformance with regu-latory requirements, technical specifications and Administrative Procedure No. 16, "Conjuct of Operation - Operation Group". The following areas were reviewed:
The licensee's adherence to the limiting conditions for operation.
a.

f.
That the flow path for selected engineered safeguards trains were in the correct line up and that power supplies were properly aligned for components that must actuate upon an initiation signal.
g.
That the licensee's equipment tag out records for maintenance was in accordance with Administrative Procedure No. 14, " Safety Clearance and Tagging."
Within the areas inspected no items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

System Verification A walk through was conducted of the auxiliary feedwater system to verify that the installed system is in conformance with the FSAR. The installed system was compared with Figure 6.5-1 of the FSAR.
There were no discrepancies identified.
The auxiliary feedwater system is used for plant startup and cooldown and during normal operation it is placed in a standby status to deliver feed-water for emergency operation. The system is automatically started upon receipt of various emergency signals.
The system consists of two motor driven units and one steam turbine driven unit. The portion of theinstalled system which was verified was from the primary feedwater source, which is the condensate storage tank, to the connection at the main feedwater lines outside containment.
The backup source of water, which is provided from the service water system, was also verified.
Operation of the system is covered in various system operating procedures (SOP), unit operating procedures (UOP) and emergency operating procedures (EOP).
These procedures were compared with the operational description presented in Section 6.5.2.1 of the FSAR. No discrepancies were identified.
