" Vacuum Condition Resulting in Damage to Chemical Volume Control System (CVCS)

Holdup Tanks (sometimes called

" Clean Waste Receiver Tanks")".

RII: JPO 50-395

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

South Carolina Electric & Gas Company has completed action Items 1 and 2 of IEB 80-05 and has found that all tanks have an open line to the

. plant atmosphere or an open line directed to the plant vent system to preclude a tank vacuum condition from existing. No valves are installed in these vent lines.

Three tanks, the Waste Monitor Tanks, XTK-22A-WL and 22B-WL, and the Laundry and Hot Shower Tank, XTK-50-WL, have vents which will restrict the flow of relieving air to the point that the external design pressure may be compromised.

ilowever, calculations for the collapse pressure show that the internal vacuum would only be a maximum of 2 percent of the tank collapse pressure.

In order to prevent compromising, the external design pressure of the Waste Monitor Tanks and the Laundry and Hot Shower Tank, the size of the vent line on these tanks will be increased to prevent a vacuum condition from existing during tank drawdown.

Attachment I lists the tanks evaluate in response to IEB 80-05.

This is a final report on IEB 80-05.

IfIouhaveanyquestionsor if I may be of further assistance, please 11 me.

er ly yours, I
