Paga 2 Description of Occurrence:
Following completion of sampling, the switches for the Recimulation Systcri sample valves, A0-2-39 and A0-2-h0, were placed in the closed position. It was observed that the ind'.cating 1snps showed the valve A0-2-39 had not fully closed. Cycling of the velve while observing the flow at the sampling station confimed that the valve was not fully closing.
Designation of Apparent Cause of Occurrence:
Unknown, at this time, due to inaccessability of the valve.
Analysis of Occurrence:
The safety implication of this failure is minimal because the other redundant valve in series with A0-2-39 did fully close and would have isolated if necessary.
Corrective Action:
Further opening and closing of A0-2-39 resulted in stopping flow completely, but the indicating lamps were still incorrect. Valve operrbility will be checked during the next outage.
Failure Data:
A0-278-7h-23.
Very tmly yours, l
