ENCLOSURE BELLEFONTE NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 LACK OF ENVIRO! MENTAL QUALIFICATION OF EQUIPMENT IN AUXILIARY BUILDING l

BECAUSE OF POTENTIAL FAILURE OF STARTUP AND RECIRCULATION SYSTEM BLRD-50-438/82-33, BLRD-50-439/82-30 10 CFR 50.55(e)

NCR BLN NEB 8203 THIRD INTERIM REPORT Dc,scrg tion of Deficiency A pipe failure of the noneafety grade Steam Generator Startup and Recirculation System in the Auxiliary Building could result in a harsh environment that exceeds the qualification limits for safety-related electrical equipment. Failure of nearby safety-related equipment in one system train because of the harsh environment caused by the pipe break coupled with an assumed failure in the same safety system in the other train may result in a situation that could adversely affect safe shutdown of the plant.

The cause of this deficiency was determined to be lack of sufficient pipe l

break analysis criteria at the time of system design. No other TVA

- facilities are affected by this deficiency.

- ' Interim Prof ess Design work relating to the system relocation / enclosure is continuing. The system design document, the design criteria drawings, and mechanical piping drawings have been revised to reflect the requirement that the startup and recirculation system piping in the auxilia:'y building be isolated from the building environment.

Still in progress is the revision to civil design drawings (concrote and steel) of the pipe chases and pump enclosures required to implement the piping isc.1ation.
