ENCLOSURE PILGRIM STATUS REPORT FOR THE PERIOD NOVEMBER S -18, 1988 1.0 Plant Status As of 8:00 a.m. on Sovember 18, 1988, the reactor was in the cold shutdown mode with moderator temperature about 87.3 degrees Fahrenheit.
2.0 Facility Operations Summary The plant has been shutdown for maintenance and to make program improve-ments since April 12, 1986. The reactor core was completely defueled on February 12, 1987 to facilitate extensive maintenance and modification of plant equipment. The licensee completed fuel reload on October 14, 1987.
Re-installation of the reactor vessel internal components and the vessel head was followed by completion of the reactor vessel hydrostatic test.
The primary containment integrated it:ak rate test was completed during the week of December 21, 1987.
The licensee completed a formal management self-assessment of their readi-ness for restart and submitted this to the NRC for review on May 26, 1988, in the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Stetion Self-Assessment of Readiness. for Restart Report and Volume 2, Revision 2 of the Restart Plan. The NRC completed its review of the licensee's Self-Assessment Report and con-ducted an Integrated Assessment Team Inspection (IATI) dJring August 8-24, 1953. The purpose of the IATI was to perform an in-depth assessment of the licensee's readiness for restart. The IATI Inspection Report 50-293/88-21 was issued on September 7,1983. The team concluded with confidence that Boston Edison Company (BECo) management controls, programs and personnel are generally ready and performing at a level to support safe startup and operation of the facility. The licensee has formally requested permission of the NRC for restart of the Pilgrim plant.
3.0 Items of special Interest Plant physical Readiness for Restart As of November 18, 1983, all previous NRC restart open items were re:olved. Plant physical readiness is pending review of the containment penetration p?pe support issue. On October 14, 1988, an NRC inspector idantified two loose bese plate anchor bolte on a containment penetration pipe support. Subsequently, the licensee performed extensive inspections and analyses to determine whether a significant problem exists. The licensee conducted walkdowns of containment penetration pipe supports similar to that in which the loose ancnor bolts were initially found and has been analy-ing any noted discrepancies between the "as-built" configuration of the supports and the design drawings. The licensee expanded the walkdowns to additional piping supports, component supports and structural supports considered important-to-safety and has been re performing stress analyses where necessary.

4.0 Emergency Notification System (ENS) Reports Radiological Spill On the morning of November 16, 1983, the licensee discovered that radioactively contaminated water was spilled inside the radwaste trucklock and that some of the water had leaked outside the building. The licensee's investigation into the incident determined that, at about 8:20 a.m.,
contract personnel had commenced filling a radioactWe waste high integrity container (HIC) liner, located in the radwaste building trucklock with demineralized water. The HIC was approximately one third filled with contaminated filter media. The contractor'a intention was to form a slurry with the medi' and pump it out of the HIC into a filter system for dewatering At about 8:40 a.m., the contractor technicians inolved, believing that they had secured the demineralized water supply, left the area unattended. At about 9:45 a.m., a licensed operator performing a reatine outside tour identified that water was leaking under the trucklock and escaping to the surrounding arra. The control room was notified and th: source of the leak was isolated.

Enclosure 3 The licensee estimated that approximately 2300 gallons of water were spilled of which abeut 100 gallons exited the process building. Standing water in the immediate area of the spill showed activity levels of up to 7E-03 microcuries per cubic centineter (uc/cc). Samples from inside the protected area fence showed maxirum activities of 6E-04 uc/cc. Samples from the arei outside the protected area fence showed no activity above minimum detectable levels.
The licensee issued a press release describing the incident and mace an ENS notification to the NRC at 3:29 p.m. on November 16, 1933. The NRC resident office close'.y tollowed the incident and reviewed BECo's radio-activity analyses of the spill area. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts also dispatched a team of inspectors to the site to investigate the spill; they also surveyed the area and teok water and soil samples.
