Dear Mr. Davis:

In accordance with the provisions of Reference (1), a Special Report is submitted covering results of sampling and analysis actions together with additional operational information for two separate occasions when reactor thermal power changed by more than 15% of Rated Thermal Power within one hour while in Operational Condition 1 and 2.

i The separate occasions are discussed in sections 1 and 2 as follows: l SECTION 1- -----February 16, 1987 SECTION 2-------April 6, 1987 Each section provides a summary of operating data and radiological data for the time period prior to the thermal power change along with the results of the additional sampling required.

REPORT 87-02 INTRODUCTION LACBWR Technical 5;ocifications, Section 4.2.2.22, Action g, requires sampling and analysis ftr Icdine-131, -133 and -135, as well as gross beta and / I gamma activity between 2 and 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> following a thermal power change of greater.

than 15% of rated thermal power within one hour. This special report is required to contain the informattra determined by the analysis plus additional information regarding reactor power history, fuel burnup, cleanup flow history, offgas'." '/ (c.

activity levels and gross alpha activity levels.l 7 )

I i;

SECTION 1 At 1702 on February 16, 1987, the reactor was manually scrammed from f8%

power. The reactor was scramned because of an erroneous indication of low voltage on Turbine Building MCC1A. <
