- NARRATIVE SUFDfARY OF MONTHLY OPERATING EXPERIENCE February 1985 February.1 The Station was in Operational Mode I with Reactor Power at a nominal 100 percent. Reactor Coolant System was at normal operating pressure and temperature.

February 4- The Station was in Operational Mode I with Reactor Power through at a nominal 100 percent. Reactor Coolant System was at

~ February.7 normal operating pressure and temperature.

February 8 At 1114 hours0.0129 days <br />0.309 hours <br />0.00184 weeks <br />4.23877e-4 months <br /> on the 8th, power level was reduced due to through a rapid drop in Reactor Coolant System temperature. The sFebruary 10 problem was attributed to boric acid ent ering - the demineralizer header through.a leaking isolation valve pH-49}. ( At 1300 hours0.015 days <br />0.361 hours <br />0.00215 weeks <br />4.9465e-4 months <br /> on the 8th the valve, [CH-49), was isolated and power escalation began, reaching a ' nominal 100 percent at .1900 hours0.022 days <br />0.528 hours <br />0.00314 weeks <br />7.2295e-4 months <br />.

Power level was reduced to approximately 28 percent at 2220 hours0.0257 days <br />0.617 hours <br />0.00367 weeks <br />8.4471e-4 months <br /> on the 8th to perform maintenance on 'B' Feedwater Regulator Valve-[FCV-FW-488].

At 0845 hours0.00978 days <br />0.235 hours <br />0.0014 weeks <br />3.215225e-4 months <br /> on the 10th the ' B' Feedwater Regulating Valve was. returned to se rvice. and . power . level was increased to a nominal 100 percent at 1215 hours0.0141 days <br />0.338 hours <br />0.00201 weeks <br />4.623075e-4 months <br /> on the 10th.

February 11 The Station was in Operational Mode 1- with Reactor Power at a nominal 100 percent. Reactor Coolant System was

~

through February 14 at normal operating pressure and temperature.

February 15 Began a' power reduction at 1350 hours0.0156 days <br />0.375 hours <br />0.00223 weeks <br />5.13675e-4 months <br /> due to a suspected problem with :a feedwater pump [ FW-P-1B] seal. At 1354-hours the scals integrity was restored, by reestablishing suction pressure in the feed pump, and power level was increased to a nominal 100 percent.
