OPERATIONAL

SUMMARY

MARCH 1991 UNIT 1 Unit 1 generated 854,260 MWh (gross) electrical power during March, with a capacity factor of 98.8 percent. Unit I was operating at approximately ll( 99 percent reactor thermal power at the beginning of the month with a loss of efficiency resulting from the loss of No. 1 preferred inverter that caused the moisture separator reheater (MSR) valves to close. On March 1, 1991, at 0005 Eastern standard time (EST), the MSRs were manually placed back in service.

Unit 1 was at 100 percent reactor power level at 0746 EST on March 1, 1991.

On March 26, 1991, at 1326 EST, with Unit 1 operating at 100 percent reactor power, the No. I reactor coolant pump (RCP) oil reservoir high/ low alarm came in. Operations began monitoring the thrust bearing temperature and upper radial bearing temperature. Westinghouse Electric Corporation was contacted and recommended that the pump be shut down if either the thrust bearing temperature or upper radial bearing temperature increased 5 dea rces. On March 28, 1991, at 1017 EST, a load decrease was initiated for the inspection of the No. 1 RCP oil leak. Unit i reactor power was decreased to approximately 24 percent to facilitate as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) for the containment entry. Two containment entries were made. The first entry found that the oil level was approximately one inch below normal and that a small quantity of visible oil was primarily in the vicinity of the bearing lift ayatem, which is used only during plant RCP startup and RCP shutdown. The second entry was made to add oil and clean noted standing oil to the extent possible taking into consideration ALARA.

On March 28, 1991, at 2320 EST, Unit 1 power increase was initiated. Unit i reached 99 percent reactor power on March 29, 1991, at 1555 EST. At 2145 EST, a power reduction was initiated to allow Operations to remove the No. 3 heater drain tank -(HDT) pump f rom service so that the 3C auxiliary oil pump could be manually stopped. Reduction in power to 80 percent ensured that a balance-of-plant runback did not occur when the No. 3 HDT pwnp was removed from service. Unit I was returned to 100 percent reactor power on March 30, 1991, at 0543 EST, and continued to operate at 100 percent through the end of the month.

UNIT 2 Unit 2 generated 866:260 MWh (gross) electrical power during March, with a capacity factor of 100.2 percent. Unit 2 was operating at approximately 100 percent reactor power on March 3, 1991, at 0143 EST, when the load dispatch requested a reduction of 100 >Ne. At 0245 EST, the load dispatch requested a further reduction of 100 MWo. At 0313 EST, load dispatch requested another reduction of 100 MWe, reducing power on Unit 2 to 876 MWe.

At 0437 EST, Unit 2 was operating at approximately 73 percent reactor power, producing 880 MWe, At 0544 EST, the load dispatch notified Operations to begin load increase to 100 percent reactor power. At 1055 EST, Unit 2 was again operating at 100 percent reactor power.

Unit 2 continued to opettte at approximately 100 percent reactor power level through the end of FMrch.
