- monitoring, the licensee observed erosion from a pile of contruction dirt into an adjacant licensee controlled wetland. The Plymouth Conservation Commission and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health were notified and a press release was made by the licensee. Also, on January 16, 1988, two representatives from the Plymouth Conservation Commission toured the area.
In the last several years during onsite excavation for plant modifications, dirt, asphalt and concrete containing low levels of contamination were stored in a fenced in storage area outside the protected area on the licensee's property. The licensee estimated that the storage area contains 110,000 cubic feet of material. Before removal from the protected area, samples of material were obtained and isotopic analyses were performed by the licensee. The level of activity found was reasonably uniform at levels of 10-6 (i .e. , IE-6) and 10-7 (i .e. , IE-7) microcuries of Cobalt -60 and Cesium -137 per gram. The inspector reviewed a sample of soil analyses and verified that results were consistent with the stated levels.
On January 21, 1988 the inspector toured the area, accompanied by a licensee health physics technician, and performed a survey of the storage area and found no detectable radiation above background levels. During the tour the inspector noted that bales of hay had been put around the perimeter of the fence which borders wetlands area to prevent further erosion of material. The fenced in storage area was secured with a locked gate. The inspector's survey of the area and review of licensee's analyses indicate that the level of activity do not represent a health or safety concern. The licensee is formulating a long term solution to properly dispose of the material.
Fire in the Contractor Trailer On January 17, 1988 at 4:55 a.m. the fire brigade was dispatched to extinguish a small fire in a contractor lavatory trailer, which is
! located adjacent to the Bechtel warehouse inside the protected area l fence. By 5:30 a.m., the fire brigade members had cleared the scene and i a continuous fire watch was posted in the area. The cause of the fire was believed to be overheating of an overhead heating unit for the trailer. No personnel injury occurred. The inspector toured the l

scene with a licensee fire protection engineer on January 18, 1988.
Minor damage to a small area of the ceiling in the trailer was observed.
The Plymouth Fire Department was notified by the licensee in the morning of January 18, 1938.
HPCI Room Flooding On January 23, 1988 at about 9:30 a.m. the control room received a report of flooding in the high pressure coolant injection (HPCI) system pump room. Investigation confirmed that approximately three inches of water had accumotated on the floor in the area due to an overflowing drain sump. All systems discharging into the sump were isolated. The area drain valve was checked open, and an operator was dispatched to manually start one of the two sump pumps. After manually starting a pump the operator noted that a rubber hose had been wrapped around the sump level float switch. The hose prevented the float switch from actating and starting the pumps on increasing sump level. The hose was removed and the second pump automatically started. Because the level of water in the room remained low no equipment damage resulted. There were no personnel contaminations associated with the incident.
On January 26, 1988, the licensee experienced another flooding problem in the HPCI system pump room. Approximately three inches of water had accumulated on the floor in the area. The licensee's investigation deterrained that the technicians had lef t a piece of piping on the sump level float switch following a calibration of the float switch. The piece of piping prevented the float switch from actuating and starting the pumps on increasing sump level, There were no personnel contaminations associated with the incident.
4.0 Emer2ency Notification System (ENS) Report During this period, the licensee made two reports to the NRC pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72:
On January 15,1988 at 5:45 p.m. the licensee notified NRC in ac :ordance with 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(2)(vi) regarding erosion of construction dirt into the wetlands area. The dett:ls are described in section 3.0.
On January _7,1988 at 1:13 a.m. a spurious reactor scram signal was generated during the performance of a reactor level instrument calibration. The full scram signal on low water level was received due to a surge in the reactor water instrument line when an I&C technician was valving a level instrument back in service. The licensea's investigation of the event identified two safety related equipment malfunctions; only half of the Reactor Building Isolation System initiated due to an electrical relay failure, and a vent valve on the scram discharge volume failed to close. The licensee also identified an incorrectly installed rea. tor water level instrument gauge. The details of these problems and the licensee's corrective actions will be documented in the inspection report 50-293/87-57.
