i Operatiens Summary December 1981  :

The following summary describes the significant operational activities for the month of December. In support of this summary, a chronological log of significant events is included in this report.

Unit 1 Unit I was critical for 692.1 hours1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, produced 636,290 MWH (gross) with 2.8 percent station use, resulting in an average hourly gross load of 965,026 KW during the month. The net beat rate for the month was 10,280 BTU /KWH.

There are 178.9 full power days estimated remaining until the end of cycle 1 fuel. With a capacity factor of 85 percent the target EOC exposure would be reached July 29, 1982. The capacity factor for the month was 73.5 percent.

There were no reactor scrams, one manual shutdown, and six power re-ductions during Deceaber.

Unit 2 Unit 2 was critical for 43.7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />, produced 1,904 MWH (gross) with an average hourly gross load of 136,829 kW during the month. There are'382.6 full power days estimated remaining until the end of cycle 1 fuel. The capacity factor for the month was 7.5 percent.

There was one reactor scram, no manual shutdowns, and no power reductions during December.

Significant Operational Events Unit 1 Date Time Event 12/01/81 0001 Reactor power 98% - 1044 MWe.

O Plant Maintentnca. Summary The following significant maintenance items were completed during the month of December 1981:

r Mechanical Maintenance y 1. The steam dump sparger has been installed on Unit 2 condenser.

2. The steam dump modifications have been completed on all three condensers on Unit 2.
3. The mechanical seal on hotwell pump IC has been replaced.

4

4. 2-FCV-1-18 was rebuilt. _

i i Ilectrical Maintenance

1. Repairs were made to the 2B hotwell pump motor.
2. The Unit 2 exciter was received back on site and installed.
3. The Technical Support Center ' Dimension' phone system modifications were completed.

i t Instrument Maintenance

1. Containment sump level transmitters 1-LT-63-176 and -177 required special calibration due to drifting.

I 2. Due to the accumulation of non-condensibles, the pressurizer level channel condensate pots required to be vented are: L-63-320, 5 times; L-68-335, 2 times, and L-68-339, I time.

I Field Services Maintenance a

Work continues on the following items. /

1. A post accident sampling system for Unit 1 is being installed to obtain designated liquid and gas samples during and after a postulated event.
2. IE Bulletin 79 Hanger Repairs - 448 repairs are completed and 65 identified repairs remaining.
3. The 4-inch train B piping to HVAC equipment serving the electric board rooms and main control roam is being replaced.
4. Exposed cables in areas outside primary containment containing one or both safety related divisions are being coated with Flamastic.

\

Field S rvices Mainten:nce (Continued)

5. To achieve positive access accountability door A-183 is being replaced and a card reader is being installed.
6. Conduit is being installed for response time testing of the Unit 2 refueling water storage tank level transmitters.
7. A reactor vessel head venting system is being added to Unit 1.
8. An oxygen analyzer is being installed on the auxiliary boilers.
9. To comply with TVA's SQN radiological emergency plan the telephone and radios located in the health physics laboratory,_ elevation 706', are being moved to the health physics laboratory, elevation 690', service building.
10. Three pressurizer condensate reservoirs are being fabricated for Unit I to ensure proper operation of the pressurizer instrumentation.

The following work was completed during the month.

1. Cables, junction boxes and conduit has been removed from the ABSCE dampers that were blocked open. g
2. Environmentally qualified solenoids have been installed on various dampers.
3. A fuel transfer canal ladder has been installed to provide access from elevation 734' to elevation 686'.
4. A 3' by 3' opening in the Al line wall in the auxiliary building has been closed with a 3-hour rated fire barrier.
5. The carbon steel supply and return lines to the incore instrument room chillers 2A and 2B have been replaced with stainless steel piping.
6. Block walls on elevation 690' auxiliary building have been modified by installing a steel plate on the walls in accordance with NCR SQNSWP8119.
7. An isolation valve has been installed in the 3 inch blowdown line'to the cooling tower blowdown ahead of 1-FCV-15-8 to ensure that the steam generator blowdown to the cooling tower blowdown can be isolated in the event the valve is required to be closed.
8. Additional test connections have been installed on the Unit 2 feedwater taps.
9. The Unit 2 pressurizer level condensate pot vent lines have been extended to enhance maintenance. ,
10. A missing support on the Unit 2 reactor coolant pump #4 pil cooler line has been installed.
