Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:

Normal end of life of components of the subject pump as per ASME,Section XI, Inservice Testing of Pumps and Valves, was determined to be the cause of degraded operability of the pump. Monthly testing had placed the ramp in the alert range which requires the testing frequency to la doubled until corrective action is taken and new reference values with appropriate ranges are generated.

Analysis of Occurrence:

During the maintenance, the redundant loop and the other pump in the same loop were operable in the event the RHR System was needed.

This occurrence presented no adverse consequences from the stand-point of public health and safety.

Corrective Action:

Pump was overhauled and the appropriate surveillance test was run to prove operability.

Sincerely, L. C. Lessor Station Superintendent Cooper Nuclear Station LCL:cg Attach.
