Operaticas Summary July, 1981 The following summary describes the significant operational actis. ties for the month of July.

In support of this summary, a chronological log of significant events is included in this report.

Unit I was critical for 585.1 hours1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, produced 558,790 MWH (gross) with 4.16 percent station use, resulting in an average hourly gross load of 1,025,000 KW during the month. The net heat rate for the month was 10,910 BTU /KWH.

There are 256.56 full power days estimated remaining until the end of cycle 1 fuel. With a :apacity factor of 85 percent the target EOC exposure would be reached April 14, 1982. The capacity factor for the month was 63.8 percent.

There were three scrams during July.

Unit 1 At 0001 hrs. on July I the reactor was in mode 3.

Repairs were completed on the main steam intercept valve 1-FCV-1-22, the reactot was taken critical at 0348 hrs., and the unit tied on line at 2313 hrs. The reactor tripped (Reactor trip #81-16) when the control air line to the main feedwater regula-tion valve blew off causing the valve to fail closed creating a Lo-Lo feed-water flow alarm in loop 3 at 1946 hrs., July 9.

The reactor was taken critical again on July 10 at 1924 hrs and the unit tied on line at 0623 hrs.

on July 11.

The reactor tripped (Reactor trip #81-17) at 0643 hrs. because of Lo-Lo steam generator level in loop 3 created by steam flow, feedwater flow mismatch. The reactor was taken critical at 0940 hrs., the unit tied on line at 1150 hrs, and reactor power increased to 30%. The reactor tripped (Reactor trip #81-18) at 1353 hrs, when increased steam generator blow down caused the low pressure heaters to isolate creating Lo-Lo steam generator level alarms. The reactor was taken critical at 0325 hrs. on July 13, the unit tied on line at 0450 hrs. The reactor obtained 100% power at 2010 hrs.,

July 15 after remaining between 80 - 90% power for work on the condensate booster pumps. At 0040 hrs. on July 18 the unit was taken off line to repair the loop 1 main steam check valve. The reactor was taken critical on July 21 at 2225 hrs. and tied on line at 0147 hrs'., July 22 and 100% reactor power obtained at E 2330 hrs. On July 31 at 2359 hrs. the reactor was in mode 1 at 100% power, 1100 mwe.

P Unit 2 l

July 3 at 2205 unit 2 entered mode 6 and initial core fuel loading started. The first fuel assembly was set in the core at 0001 hrs. July 4.

Initial core loading was completed at 1454 hrs. July 7.

The reactor entered mode 5 at 0330 hrs. July 29. July 31 at 2359 hrs. the reactor was in mode 5.

PORV's and Safety Valves Summary No PORV's or safety valves were challenged during the month. -

Work continues on coating all exposed surfaces of cable with Flamastic in areas outside primary containment.

2.

The addition of permanent yard security lighting fixtures to satisfy footcandle level dificiencies continues.

3 Work is complete on the Public Safety Services radio repeater system.

4.

Work is in progress to add a temperature monitoring system for the various class IE electrical equipment located throughout the plant.

1 5.

The replacement of the 1-inch carbon steel ERCW piping going to the EGTS room coolers with stainless steel piping is in progress.

6.

Work continues on the modification to lock open the 38 interim ABSOE isolation damper.

7.

The installation of a supplementary battery operatea phone circuit in the main control room is in progress.

8.

The changeout of the present freon leak detection systeiu in the main control room to an electronic, pressure-type system has begun. The new system will provide quicker and more accurate freon detection in the control room.

9.

The niodification to the SSPS and NIS power range drawers N41., N42, N43, y

and N44 to inc~orporate ~P-9 permissivrf turbine /resctor' trip logic -
