Dear Mr. O'Reilly,

In accordance with the requirements of Section 6.12.2a of the Technical Specifications of Facility Operating License No.

DPR-26, the following report is submitted.

Following completion of repairs associated with the November 13, 1973 feedvater line break incident, an inspection of all Bergen-Paterson hydraulic shock and sway arrestors (snubbers) located in the vapor containment was performed. This inspection was completed on January 18,.1974 and of the approximately 350 snubbers in the containment two (2) did not meet the' established criterion for op-erability; that is, the accumulator oil level plunger was more than one inch below the " EXT" mark.

One of the above two snubbers (SR-104 0) is located on the component cooling return line (Line No. 14) from upper bearing cooler of No.

23 reactor coolant pump and the other (SR-48-SR3) is located on the secondary blowdown line (Line No. 48) from No. 24 steam generator.

Both snubbers have been replaced with spares. The two defective snubbers will be disassembled for inspection in an effort to deter-mine the cause of failure.

Mr. Don Caphton o,f your office was notified of this occurrence by Mr. John Makepeace on January 18, 1974.

Very truly yours, 8304050060 740201 #
