De-Icing Zion Station operated in the De-icing Mode during the first three months of 1979.

The De-icing Mode was not required through-out the winter.

D.

Violations of the Environmental Technical Specifications I

There were three violations of the ETS during 1979.

1.

Boric Acid usage exceeded the 1000 lbs/yr limit specified in Appendix B, Section 1.3.b.

(Boric acid usage has no intent or bearing on the Appendix B concerns of liquid releases to Lake Michigan).

Reference:

LER #50-295/79-17 2.

The pH of the Waste Water Treatment Facility effluent exceeded the pH range as specified in Appendix B, Section 1.3.

The pH range is not practical and a Technical Specification change has been submitted.

Reference:

LER #50-295/79-85 3.

The pH of the Waste Water Treatment Facility effluent was lower than the limit specified in the Technical Specifications Section 1.3.

An acidic solution from the WNT drained via bad packing glands of the WNT pumps.

(The packing glands were repaired.)

Reference:

LER #50-295/79-94 E.

Malfunctions of Environmental Equipment There were no malfunctions of the environmental equipment during 1979.

F.

Hypochlorite Usage No sodium hypochlorite was used at the Station during 1979.

G.

Shoreline Erosion Status Commonwealth Edison Company is continuing to monitor the status of shoreline erosion at the Station and adjoining properties.

Monthly photographic surveys of the area are being conducted, and will be continued until such time as the company and the State of Illinois determine whether any additional restoration work will be required.

At this time, some erosion is taking place at the northern end of the property.

This erosion is caused by 60 concrete blocks submerged in about 4 feet of water off shore.

Plans are being made to remove the blocks this year.

II WAUKEGAN MEMORIAL AIRPORT EXPANSION PLANS

- m>e

II Waukegan Memorial Airport Expansion Plans Based aircraft numbered 250 at the end of 1979.

The notal number of operations for 1979 was approximately 210,000.

Phase two of the expansion project (the acquisition of land necessary to lengthen the main runway 1400 feet to the northeast) has not yet been completed.

Phase three (the acquisition of land to the northwest for corporate aircraft) has not started.

The following events occurred during 1979:

1.

Land was acquired for a corporate taxiway along runway 14.

2.

A new fixed base operator started business on the field.

The airport's Environmental Impact Assessment Report was submitted in 1978.

The review has not yet been completed.

Attached is FAA form 5010-1 for Waukegan Memorial Airport for 1979 as required by Technical Specification 6.6.3.C.

Tests Eddy Current testing and evaluation of 2D Steam Generator was conducted during the period of March 12, 1979 through March 20, 1979.

The final inspection results of the 407 tubes tested revealed no reportable indications and insig-nificant denting of approximately 100 tubes.

All testing and evaluation was conducted to approved written procedures.

EXPERIMENTS An experiment is being conducted to assess the extended lifetime capabilities of spent fuel assemblies.

Four pre-viously discharged fuel assemblies

(~ 38000 MWD /MTU average burnup) have been loaded into the Unit II Cycle 4 core for additional irradiation.

These assemblies have been scheduled for inspection in 1980 at the end of one cycle of extended burnup ( ~ 47000 MWD /MTU average burnup).

In anticipation of increased burnup, Technical Specifi-cation changes were submitted to and accepted by the NRC.

These Technical Specifications addressed the rod bow penalty and clad collapse concerns.

This experiment is an EPRI/ Westinghouse program initiated by the Department of Energy to improve uranium fuel utilization without reprocessing by extending the burnup of nuclear fuel elements.
