On July 13, 1989, Intake Cooling Water (ICW) flow to the Unit 4 Component Cooling Water (CCW) heat exchangers degraded to below the design basis flow rate for fifteen minutes while backwashing the 4A--ICW/CCW basket-. strainer'CW flow was'estored within five minutes of recognizing the degraded flow condition. On July 15, 1989 the same condition occurred but ICW flow was maintained above the design basis flow. On July 16, 1989, the 4B ICW header was taken out of service for investigation. The cause of these condi,tions was initially believed to be clogging of the 4B ICW/CCW basket strainer and/or a malfunction of its differential pressure gauge . Subsequent evaluation indicated flow obstruction in or around 4B ICW header isolation valve 4-50-308. Due to the frequency of cleaning ICW/CCW basket strainers, a management decision was made not to continue power operations with only one header of ICW operable. Unit 4 was placed in Mode 3 on July 17, 1989 'alve 4-50-308 was replaced and the 4B ICW header was returned to" service on July 20, 1989. The initial degraded ICW flow condition did not affect any other plant equipment .

At 1824 on July 15, 1989, an attempt was made to valve out the 4A ICW/CCW basket strainer for cleaning when ICW flow to the CCW heat exchangers de-creased . The strainer was returned to a normal alignment while ICW flow was maintained above 15,400 gpm. Since the 4B ICW/CCW basket strainer had previously been cleaned and showed a differential pressure decrease to approximately 1.0 psid, Operations personnel suspected the strainer to be clogged and the differential pressure gauge to be in error.
At 1425 on July 16, 1989, with Unit 4 in Mode 1 at 100X power, the 4B ICW/
CCW basket strainer was taken out of service in accordance with Technical Specification 3.4.5.b.l for cleaning and to inspect for obstructions. The inspection showed no significant blockage . Subsequent evaluation of the degraded ICW flow condition by the System Engineer indicated probable flow restriction in or around 4B ICW header isolation valve 4-50-308.
Due to the frequency of cleaning ICW/CCW basket strainers, a management decision was made not to continue operation with only one header of ICW operable . Therefore, at 0325 on July 17, 1989, a Unit 4 shutdown was initi-ated and at 0607 Unit 4 was placed in Mode 3 (hot standby).
Examination and repair of the 4-50-308 valve required isolation of the 48 ICW header. Although no degraded flow conditions were indicated for the 4A ICW/
CCW basket strainer, to ensure the maximum flow capability, PPL determined that backwash of the 4A ICW/CCW basket strainer was prudent . However, with the 4B ICW header at reduced flow (approximately 8200 gpm) and therefore, NAC POIIM 3ISA I943 I

'.'ment for. a period of time not to exceed one hour to perform the requested back-
, wash of the 4h ICW/CCW basket strainer. This operation took place between

Analysis of the Event The minimum required total flow to the CCW heat exchangers during power opera-tion was less than the design basis flow from 1625 to 1640 on July 13, 1989.
During this time, the CCW heat exchanger outlet temperature reached a maximum recorded value of approximately" 109 degrees P.
The limiting components in the CCW system from the perspective of operating CCW temperatures are the Reactor Coolant Pumps seals'ased on this limita-tion, the CCW heat exchanger outlet temperature may exceed 105 degrees P up to 125 degrees P for' maximum period of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. Since the CCW heat ex-changer outlet temperature reaahed a maximum recorded value of approximately 109 degrees P during the 15 minutes of degraded ICW flow, it may be concluded that this condition had no significant affect on plant equipment.
The degraded ICW flow to the CCW heat exahangers occurred during the back-washing of the 4A ICW/CCW basket strainer . Within 5 minutes of recognizing the degraded ICW flow aondition, total ICW flow to the CCW heat exahangers was restored to above 15,400 gpm. Had a Design Basis Aaaident oacurred during this time, ICW flow to the CCW heat exchangers aould have been restored in time to acaomodate the heat loads generated by a Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident .
During the time the 4B ICW header was out of service to repair valve 4-50-308, ICW total flow to the CCW heat exahangers was maintained above that required to mitigate the consequences of a Design Basis Accident.
