DOCKET.50-266 POINT BEACH NUCLEAR PLANT, UNIT 1 FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE DPR-24 REACTOR < CONTAO4 MENT BUILDING INTEGRATED LEAK RATE TEST In accordance with Section 15.4.4.I.D. of the Point Beach Nuclear' Plant Technical Specifications and Section V.B.

of 10 CFR150 Appendix J, a summary technical report on the Type A containment integrated leakage rate-test conducted during the 5

April 1987 Unit I refueling and maintenance outage'is enclosed.

The results of the Type B and Type C leakage tests conducted since the April 1984 Type A test are included.

1 The Type A test was performed by Bechtel Power Corporation; the report was reviewed and approved by Wisconsin Electric.

The complete report, including all procedures,. equipment calibration J

records, test data, and results, is available at Point Beach for review.

A summary report,' prepared in accordance with ANSI /ANS-l 56.8-1981, is enclosed herewith.

A routine, announced NRC inspection was conducted by Mr. R.

'Mendez during the performance of the Type A test.

No items of i

non-compliance or deviations were identified in Inspection Report No. 50-266/87008; 50-301/87008, dated April 29, 1987.

The overall, as-found, total time leakage rate for this Type A test was 0.297%/ day at the 95% upper confidence level.

This value includes a 0.010%/ day correction for non-standard valve alignments, containment volume changes, gas additions to the containment, and a penalty of 0.155%/ day for the packing leakage from four. steam generator level transmitter isolation valves that were leak-tested and replaced with new valves prior to the B707300429 B70722 fDl k

l Type A test.

They are not containment isolation valves but are j

part of the containment boundary.

The new valves were included l

in the Type A test boundary.

As a result of adding in the l

penalty for these valves, the calculated leak rate for the as-found condition exceeds the allowable operational leak rate of'0.212%/ day.

This was reported in Licensee Event Report (LER)

No. 87-002-00, dated May 6, 1987.

The overall, as-left, total time leakage rate for this Type A I

test was 0.142%/ day at the 95% upper confidence level, i.e.,-

l 67.0% of the allowable operational leakage rate.

This includes a 0.010%/ day correction for r on -standard valve alignments, containment volume changes, end gas additions to the containment.

leakage of the Type B and C tests The overall, as-found...985 refueling outage was 27,967 secm or conducted during the 11.7% of 0.6L After repairs, the overall, as-left, leakage rate was 11,138 Lecm or 4.7% of 0.6L a*

The overall, as-found, leakage of the. Type B and C tests l

conducted during the 1986 refueling outage was greater than 164,420 seem or greater than 68.6% of 0.6L As described in LER No. 86-002-00, dated May 16, 1986, the" actual value could not be quantified because excessive leakage during one Type C test made it impossible to achieve test pressure.

However, after repairs, the overall, as-left, leakage rate was 12,711 sccm or 5.3% of 0.6La*
