Dear Mr. Skovholt:

The enclosed summary of safety / relief (S/R) valve operation is forwarded in response to Part 1 of your letter of December 19, 1973.

July - December 1970 4m 6.,1) 12-30 All three S/R valves were manually lifted with reactor pressure R at 980 psig during startup test program.

Januar/ - June 1971 4~n 1) 1-10 The A and B S/R valves lifted automatically during the startup 2

test program after an unscheduled MSIV closure.

2) 2-14 All three valves were manually lifted with reactor pressure at I

1000 psig; this was done as part of the startup test program.

3) 2-16 The C S/R valve was manually lifted with reactor pressure at i

1000 psig; held open for 30 seconds.

Valve was weeping prior to manual lift and reseat.

4) 2-18 The C S/R valve was manually lifted with reactor pressure at i

1000 psig; held open for 30 seconds. Test was performed after completion of maintenance work on valve.

5) 3-28 The B S/R valve was manually lifted with reactor pressure at i

1000 psig; held open for 30 seconds.

6) 5-12 The A S/R valve was manually lifted for a few seconds with reactor ;

pressure at 1000 psig.

Valve was lifted after fix of leak in air line to valve.

7) 5-31 The C S/R valve was manually lifted for 15 seconds with reactor pressure at 1000 psig.

Valve was lifted to stop slow seat leakage.

8) 6-20 The C S/R valve was manually lifted for 15 seconds with reactor l

pressure at 1000 psig to eliminate slight seat leakage.

1) 9-20 The B and C S/R valves were manually lifted for 15 seconds with 2

reactor pressure at 1000 psig.

2) 10-10 The B S/R valve lifted at approximately 1040 psig and did not i

reseat until approximately 260 psig; this was an uncontrolled blowdown.

3) 10-22 The B S/R was manually lifted and reseated with reactor pressure I

at 100 psig.

Valve was noted leaking by seat on drywell inspection.

4) 10-25 All three S/R valves were manually lifted and reseated with reactor pressure at 1000 psig. Test lift was conducted following

~

valve maintenance.

5) 11-02 All three S/R valves were manually lifted and reseated with reactor pressure at 1000 psig.

Valves were lifted in accordance with surveillance requirements of Technical Specifications.

1) 3-04 All three S/R valves were automatically lifted with reactor at 100 psig.

Valves were lifted to meet Technical Specification surveillance requirements after refuel outage.

July - December 1973

1) 9-22 All three S/R valves were manually lifted for 15 seconds with reactor pressure at 1000 psig.

Valves were lifted to meet

-r Technical Specification requirements when FWCI inoperable.
