2. Temporary Modifications (T-Mods)

T-Mod 93-109 Fuel Handling Crane Ambient Temperature Requirement -

This T-Mod is to upgrade the hoisting capacity of the Fuel Handling Crane from 5 Tons to 20 Tons. The safety evaluation which accompanied the LCR for the Spent fuel Pool rerack stated that to assure absence of brittle fracture tendency of the crane material, ambient temperature in the fuel pool area will be kept above 70°F during the rack lift operation. Because this requirement cannot be met, it was necessary to justify operation of the Fuel Handling Crane at a lower temperature. The new Rack Handling Trolley has plate sizes greater than 1/2", therefore it is subject to the requirements of NUREG-0554, Paragraph 2.4. UT examination of these plates shows there are no flaws.

According to Figure 1 of ASTM E208, ifthere are no flaws in the material, fracture initiation will not start if the service temperature is kept at or above the Nil Ductility Temperature (NDT) of the material. ASME Table NC-231 l(a)-1 shows that the NDT of ASTM A36 material is

+40°F. To assure absence of brittle fracture tendency of the material of the temporary trolley, minimum ambient temperature will be kept at or above +45°F. Also, the maximum stresses that the crane will experience are less than 20% of the brittle fracture stress of 36,000 psi. There is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the bases for the Technical Specifications. (SORC 94-086)

3. Safety Evaluations S-C-ZZ-ESE-0841 Safety Evaluation for Separation Distance of Cables in Free Air Installed in Salem Unit 1 and Unit 2 Relay Rooms (El.

100) - This evaluation will be used to create SAR Change Notice 94-40 which will revise UFSAR section 8.1.4.2.4, "Separation in Plant" and will provide additional flexibility to the allowable separation distance between cables in redundant channels, including associated circuit cables, which are installed in free air of the Salem Units 1 and 2 relay rooms (El. 100). There is no existing Technical Specification that is associated with Salem's Appendix R Alternate Shutdown Methodology. Therefore, the proposed text change in the UFSAR does not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification. (SORC 94-083)

4. Procedures NC.NA-AP.ZZ-0065(Q) Nuclear Department Resource Allocation Program - Rev. 2

- This revision deletes this procedure and creates a new Nuclear Business Procedure ND.OA-BP.ZZ-0005(Z) to cover this information. The operational Quality Assurance Program does not apply to this procedure. although this procedure is briefly described in the UFSAR (Section 13 .5.1 (Hope Creek), Plant Procedures, and Section 13.5.1.1 (Salem), Nuclear Administrative Procedures), it performs no function relative to the safe operation of either Hope Creek or Salem Stations. Therefore, deleting this procedure will have no affect on the safe operation of either Hope creek or Salem Stations. UFSAR Change Requests for Hope creek and Salem UFSARs are being prepared to remove the description ofthis procedure from the UFSAR.

There is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the bases for the Technical Specifications. (SORC 94-087)

SALEM GENERATING STATION MONTHLY OPERATING

SUMMARY

- UNIT 1 NOVEMBER 1994 SALEM UNIT NO. 1 The Unit began the period operating at 100% power and continued to operate at essentially full power until 11/16/94, when power was briefly reduced to 80% to free up the trash rake which had become jammed. The Unit was restored to full power later, the same day, and continued to operate at full power until 11/19/94, when load was reduced due to the loss of#4 and #14 station power transformers. The Unit was restored to full power on 11/19/94 and continued to operate at essentially full power until 11/28/94, when load was reduced to 30% due to loss of#2 station power transformer. The transformer was returned to service and a power escalation commenced on 11/30/94. The Unit ended the period with a power escalation in progress.
