DEFUELING d

Pick and place defueling of partial length fuel assemblies
-('
continued.
Partial fuel assemblies D-12, F-13. G-12, G-13. G-14 H 11. H-12, H-13, H-14, K-11 and K-13 were loaded into defueling canisters. A total of 78 fuel assemblies have been loaded into t
P canisters.
1 Six full canisters were transferred to the spent pool.
l A video inspection was performed after partial assembly D-12 was
)
j removed.
In this location a clear path to the lower head exists as l
the flow holes in the lower grid, distributor plate, grid forging
)
u and elliptical flow distributor align.
The video showed a variety
{
of materials in the core support assembly including loose sandy j
eppearing fines and once molten resolidified material.
No-significant damage to the core ' support assembly was discernable.
{
The core debris in the lower head appeared to be 12 to 13 inches deep. These results are consistent with previously obtained infonction from core boring and previous video inspections.

ENVIRONMENTAL NONITORING 1
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sample analysis results show that TMI site liquia effluents are in accordance with regulatory limits, NRC requimtents, and the City of Lancaster Agreement.
TMI water effluents from the station (Units 1 and 2) discharge are
{
analyzed by EPA.
Gama spectrum analyses of the seven daily L
composited samples for July 25 - August 1,1987 indicated no reactor j
related activity.
EPA's gama spectrum analysis of the NRC's TMI outdoor air sample for August 6 - 13, 1987 showed no reactos related radioactivity.
The water works for the City of Lamy ter composited seven daily i
samples from July 26 - August 1, 1987, EPA's gana spectrum onalysis of the composite sample showet no reactor related radioactivity.

DECONTAMlHAT131 ACTIVITIES i
i t
Previously, during a transfer of contaminated demineralized resin, resins were pushed through a vent into the waste f r ollection I
piping.
The resin raised the radiatico levels ar,:.. the piping and spilled in a previously decontaminated area. The floor area was cleaneo.
During this week a section of the waste gas header was flushed and radiation levels reduced to near the pre-contamination i
levels.
j Preparations continue for transferring reacicr building basement i
sludge to liners for solidification.

PUdLIC hEETING The Advisory Panel fm' the Decontamination of Three Mile Island Unit 2 met on August 12, 1967 at the Holiday Inn in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
The Panel received status reports from both the NRC staff and GPUN on the cleanup. The NRC staff also gave a presentatf or.. on the Final Report of Supplement No. 2 to the Progrannatic Envirouental Impact Statement dealing uith disposal of accident-generated water. A representative from the hRC's Office of the General Counsel gave a presentation on the recently published Notice of Opportunity for a prior naaring regarding the licensee's proposal to dispose of the accident-generated water.
habers of the public were invited to coment at the meeting.
