Docket No. 50-263 License No. DPR-22 j

g On December 17, 1973, during routine surveillance testing, the No. 22 diesel ger.erator could not be started using the No. 2 starting system. Investigation revealed that the No. 2 starting syste air relay valve was sticking and thus r

not releasing the main air supply to the starting motors.

i L

The relay valve was disassembled, cleaned, and relubricated with silicon grease. The engine ws then successfully cranked six times by the Pio. 2 starting system.

Very t2uly yours
