OPERATIONS

SUMMARY

JULY 1988 The unit entered July in cold shutdown on "A" Decay Heat Removal with the RCS in a partially drained down condition.

Draindown conditions were maintained throughout the month.

OTSG tube plugging was cogleted with 13 tubes plugged in the "A" OTSG and 8 tubes in the "B OTSG. The reactor vessel head was remved and placed on the storage stand.

The plenum was then removed from the reactor vessel.

The fuel transfer canal was filled to support refueling.

Control rod and fuel shuffle were cogleted July 26, 1988.

OTSG mechanical cleaning (Waterslap) and sludge lancing were performed on both steam generators.

Sludge lancing of the "A" 0TSG produced 113 pounds of debris and the "B" OTSG produced 179 pounds. At the end of the month, the plenum was reinstalled in the reactor vessel and preparations for reactor vessel head reinstallation were undemay.

MAJOR SAFETY RELATED MAINTENANCE During July TMI-1 performed the following major maintenance activities on safety-related equipment:

Once Through Steam Generators RC-H-1 A/B - Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) work continued in July.

The Eddy Current Testing program was cogleted with 2197 tubes tested in the "A" 0TSG and 1938 tubes in the "B" 0TSG.

Based on ECT test results,13 tubes in the "A" OTSG were plugged (1 tube required stabilization) and 8 tubes in the "B" OTSG were plugged (6 tubes required stabilization).

At the completion of repair work, all tools and equipment were removed and the primary handhole and manway covers were reinstalled.

OTSG secondary side mechanical cleaning work was accoglished. This involved isolating secondary instrumentation, waterslap equipment setup and completing the waterslap cleaning evolution.

At the completion of waterslap, the equipnent was removed and sludge lancing of the OTSG's commenced. After the sludge lancing evolution completed, all mechanical cleaning tools and equipment were removed and the secondary handhole and manway covers installed.

Secondary side instrucentation will be placed back in service in August.

Reactor Head Removal - During July, Reactor Head removal work included the uncoupling and parking of APSR/CRDM's, detensioning and parking RV head studs, removal of fuel transfer tube covers, and installing flood line cover plates.

After the fuel transfer canal was cleaned, the Reactor head and plenum were removed.

RV head stud holes were then sealed and the seal plate installed.

NI cover plates were sealed and the Reactor vent valves were exercised.

With the canal flooded and refueling in progress, RV studs were cleaned and APSR/CRDM closures cleaned.

The reactor head 0-Ring was removed and cut up

for disposal.

The RV head 0-Ring groove was cleaned, inspected, and a new 0-Ring installed. Af ter refueling activities were cogleted, the fuel transfer canal was drained and preparation for head reinsta11ation began.

Herculite was layed in the canal, the indexing fixture was rigged and installed, reactor vessel studhole covers removed, studholes cleaned and the seal plate removed.

The plenum was then installed and the indexing fixture removed.

Reactor Yessel Head installation will be completed in August.

Reactor Coolant Pump Seal Inspections - Reactor Coolant Pump RC-P-1 A/B/C/D Teal inspections were completed during the month.

The seals on RC-P-1 A were removed, inspected and 0-Rings replaced as required. The seal packages were then reassembled using a new #1 insert, new

  1. 2 seal ring and seal runner, a new #2 seal insert, and a new #3 seal ring.

After the seals were reinstalled in the pump, the coupling was reinstalled on the pug, and the pump / motor aligned and the spool piece reinstalled.

RC-P-1B seal work included removal, inspection and 0-Ring replacement on all three seals.

The seal packages were then reassembled and installed using a new #1 insert, new #2 seal ring and runner, a rebuilt upper seal housing with a new #2 insert, and a new #3 seal ring and runner. Af ter the seals were reinstalled in the pump, the coupling was reinstalled on the pump, and the pump / motor aligned and spool piece reinstalled.

RC-P-1C seal work included removal, inspection and 0-Ring replacement on all three seals.

The seal packages were then reassembled and installed using a new #1 insert, new #2 seal ring and seal runner, a #2 insert and a new #3 seal ring and runner. After the seals were reinstalled in the pug, the coupling was reinstalled on the pump, and the pump / motor aligned and the spool piece reinstalled.

The RC-P-1D seal work included removal of all three seals, inspection and 0-Ring replacement as required. The seal packages were reassembled and installed using a new #1 insert, a new #1 seal ring and runner, a new #1 sleeve, a new #1 sleeve adapter, a new #2 seal ring, a new #2 insert and a new

  1. 3 seal ring. After the seals were reinstalled in the pump, the coupling was reinstalled on the pump, and the pump / motor aligned and the spool piece reinstalled.

After all seal work was completed on RC-P-1 A/B/C/0, seal inspection hardware was removed, thermocouples and instrumentation were reinstalled. Oil drip pans were reinstalled and the work area cleaned.

Local Leak Rate Testing - Local Leak Rate Testing of Yalves and penetrations continued in July with 78 of 95 tests completed.

One valve, WDL-Y-304, required repair work in order to meet test criteria.

The valve was disassembled and inspected.

Inspection revealed that the valve wedge required replacement. A new wedge was obtained and the seats and wedge were lapped and blue checked. The valve was reassembled and retested.

After an operator adjustment, the valve tested satisfactory.

l Pressurizer Pilot Operated Relief Yalve - The pressurizer pilot operated re11ef valve RG-RV-2 was replaced during the month.

The valve was removed from the pressurizer and a previously tested spare valve was installed.

The valve was sent off-site for inspection and testing by Wyle Lab.

Test results indicated the valve tested satisfactorily.

l 1

Pressurizer Code Safety Yalves - Pressurizer Code Safety Yalve RC-RV-1A was removed from the pressurizer and replaced with a tested spare valve.

The valve was then shipped to Wyle Lab for inspection and test.

Inspection results indicated that the valve did not reet the test criteria of 2500 psi +

1%.

Repairs to the valve were co@leted by Wyle and Dresser Industries and --

the valve retested satisfactory.

Valve RC-RY-1B was removed from the pressurizer and preparaticns were made to ship the valve to Wyle for testing.
