SUMMARY

STATUS OF FUEL PERFORMANCE END OF CYCLE ELEVEN NOVEMBER 1990

_. i At the end of this: reporting period,' Quad-Cities Unit One had_ completed Eleven Reactor cycles of operation. During that time, 2512 fuel assemblies had seen duty in the Unit One core.

Sipping _was performed on two reload fuel assemblies at the End of Cycle Eleven. Sipping and visual-inspection of fuel assembly LYD482 was performed due to contact with the cattle chute ramp of-the: fuel pool. No visible damage- i to.the fuel. assembly was-found during the inspection and sipping revealed no failed fuel rods.

- The GE P8X8R~(barrier clad) assembly (LYD395) reconstituted in October 1989 .

with six-GE Lead Barrier Test' Assembly rods was visually inspected and sipped

' by GE as-part of the Lead Barrier Test Program.- The sipping and visual inspection _of__the fuel assembly revealed no failed fuel rods. Both LYD482.and LYD396 were reloaded into the core for cycle twelve operation.

No other. reload-fuel assemblies were stpped since chemical and radiochsmical.

' data collected during' Cycle Eleven gave no indication of leakage'or fuel failure'during the cycle.--

For. Unit One Cycle 12 144 new LYV-GE8X8EB (barrier clad) assemblies:were-visually inspected.1 These one hundred forty _four GE 8X8EB assemblies were loaded into. Unit One for Cycle 12 operation.
