SUMMARY

OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE FOR SEPTEMBER, 1989 Palisades began the month of September with reactor power being maintained at a nominal 80%.

Reactor power was then increased to 82.5% on September 14 at 2230 hours0.0258 days <br />0.619 hours <br />0.00369 weeks <br />8.48515e-4 months <br /> per an NRC approved power escalation plan.

Due to a primary to secondary leakrate in excess of the power escalation plan limit, a return to 80% power commenced on September 16 at 0700 hours0.0081 days <br />0.194 hours <br />0.00116 weeks <br />2.6635e-4 months <br />.

Leakrate levels were reestablished to pre-escalation values, and reactor power was maintained at 80% through Septem-ber 29.

In preparation for a fifty-two day scheduled maintenance outage, a planned power decrease was initiated on September 30 at 1320 hours0.0153 days <br />0.367 hours <br />0.00218 weeks <br />5.0226e-4 months <br /> with reactor power being decreased to 16% by the end of the day.
