Dear Mr. Denton:
Serial No. 936 NO/RMT:jmj Docket No:
50-281 License No.:
DPR-37 This letter report is submitted in accordance with the provisions of Surry Power Station Technical Specification 4.14.C.l.
During the period from 0700 to 0800 on November 2, 1980, the condenser's cooling water outlet temperature exceeded the maximum rate of change of 3° F/Hr permitted by Technical Specification 4.14.A.3.
The maximum rate of change during this period was 3.5° F/hr. At the time of this event, Unit No.
1 was at cold shutdown and Unit No. 2 was at 40% power escalating to full power operation.
The lack of service water flow through Unit No. 1 is believed to be a major contributing factor to this event. It should be recognized that all due care and caution were exercised during the power escalation.
A search was conducted to determine if the temperature change had affected the river environment.
No detrimental evidence was found.
