t 1.0 Introduction

)

Dresden Nuclear Power Station is a three reactor generating facility owned and operated by the Comed Company of Chicago, Illinois.

Dresden Station is located at the confluence of the Kankakee and Des Plaines Rivers, in Grundy County, near Morris, Illinois.

-j Dreuden Unit 1 is a General Electric Boiling Water Reactor with a design net electrical output rating of 200 megawatts electrical (MWe).

The unit is retired in i

place with all nuclear fuel removed from the reactor vessel.

Therefore, no Unit 1 operating data is provided in this report.

Dresden Units 2 and 3 are General Electric Boiling Water Reactors, each licensed at 2527 megawatts r

thermal.

The gross outputs of Units 2 and 3 are 832 and 834 megawatts electrical, respectively, with design net electrical output ratings of 794 MWe each.

The commercial service date for Unit 2 is 11 August 1970, and 30 October 1971 for Unit 3.

[

Waste heat is rejected to a man-made cooling lake using i

the Kankakee River for make-up and the Illinois River for blowdown.

t The Architect-Engineer for Dresden Units 2 and 3 was Sargent and Lundy of Chicago, Illinois.

r This report for MARCH 1997, was compiled by Gary A.

Abrell of Dresden Regulatory Assurance Staff, telephone number (815) 942-2920, extension 1749.

I 2.0 SUbHARY OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE FOR MARCH 1997 2.1 UNIT 2 MONTHLY OPERATING EXPERIENCE

SUMMARY

l I

Unit 2 was on system at the beginning of the period near full power.

At 0510 on March 15, 1997, began load drop for scram testing, timing of control rod G-6, and to gather data associated with the Recirculation Pump l

speed mismatch.

At 1710 commenced load increase j

. and reached full power at 2100.

At 0200 on March 24 began load drop to enter the low pressure heater bay'to determine the extent of a leak on the of 2C3 Feedwater Heater operating vent line.

At 0440, Unit was at 550 MWE for the J

inspection.

At 1955 commenced load increase, and reached 819 MWE at 1628 on March 27, 1997.
