On 4/22/2009 during an inspection of the HOn 4/22/2009 during an inspection of the HPCI (High Pressure Coolant Injection) Suppression Pool Suction piping it was identified that the suction piping was in contact with a piping support clamp. Per the design of the support, the clamp ring to pipe clearance should be 1/2 inch. With the identified contact, the integrity of the pipe support cannot be assured during a seismic event. At the time of discovery, the HPCI suction was aligned to the Suppression Pool. Subsequently, the suction has been realigned to the Condensate Storage Tank with both Suppression Pool suction valves deenergized in the closed position. HPCI remains available with suction aligned to the Condensate Storage Tank.</br>Due to this, HPCI was declared INOPERABLE on 4/22/2009 at 7:45 PM (local time).
