This report contains the highlights of the Fort St. Vrain, Unit No. 1, activities operated under the provisions of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Operating License DPR-34. This report is for the month of November, 1984.

1.0 NARRATIVE

SUMMARY

OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE AND MAJOR SAFETY RELATED MAINTENANCE Our new Power Plant Maintenance Information System (PPMIS) was put into service on November 5, 1984, and after a month of operation, most of the initial problems have been resolved.

, After everyone becomes more familiar with this system, it should become a very important operating asset. N~

Construction has installed a new flow totalizer in our main tower blowdown line. This should give us a better indication of water chemistry requirements, and make it easier to maintain proper circulating water chemistry.

Contractors working on the sewage lagoon dug up a 13KV feed cable from Bus 7 to various users, including the Visitor's Center and the Fort St. Vrain River structure. The Security Department maintained catalytic heaters in various areas to keep pipes from freezing. The cable has been repaired and returned to service.

~

"1A" Purified Helium Compressor Motor Generator Set failed on Thursday, November 1, 1984. Maintenance and the Electricians were successful in repairing the compressor and returning it to service.

Clearances were removed from "B" Helium Circulator, and after flushing of the bearing water piping and warm up of the steam piping, the circulator was brought up to speed. The Inside Auxiliary Boiler was placed in service parallel with the outside boiler to attain the maximum circulator speed and helium flow.

This, as expected, showed a rise in primary coolant moisture.

However, after only a few days, the primary coolant moisture level reversed, to a downward trend.

The bearing water pump for Loop II, P-2102-S, had a bad seal.

This pump is necessary to operate Loop II circulators, because one other Loop II bearing water pump is inoperable. Since Loop I Heliumi Circulator, "1B", is operable, Loop II was shutdown and the bearing water pump repaired.
