VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY SURRY POWER STATION UNIT 1 OUTAGE MODIFICATION ACTIVITIES Serial No. NO/CGL Docket No. License No. 90-569 R2 50-280. DPR-32 On August 13, 1990, a meeting was held with the NRC to discuss the schedule and planned activities for the upcoming Surry Unit 1 outage. The outage is scheduled to begin on October 5, 1990 and is planned to be 60 days in duration.

RESCHEDULED ACTIVITIES Pressurizer Safety Valve Discharge Piping Supports The concern associated with this item is having adequately designed safety valve discharge piping supp9rts to accommodate water (i.e., loop seal) discharge from the safety valves. This issue is different and separate from the safety valve setpoint issue. However, because the setpoint issue resolution may significantly impact piping support design requirements, resolution of the piping supports issue is being deferred.

License No. DPR-32 Gentlemen:

VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY SURRY POWER STATION UNIT 1 OUTAGE MODIFICATION ACTIVITIES On August 13, 1990, a meeting was held with the NRC to discuss the schedule and planned activities for the upcoming Surry Unit 1 outage. The outage is scheduled to begin on October 5, 1990 and is planned to be 60 days in duration. As discussed in the meeting, a number of activities for this outage are being rescheduled within our five year plan. Confirming the information presented during the August 13, 1990 meeting, this letter identifies those items and summarizes the reasons for rescheduling them.

RESCHEDULED ACTIVITIES Pressurizer Safety Valve Discharge Piping Supports The concern associated with this item is having adequately designed safety valve discharge piping supp9rts to accommodate water (i.e., loop seal) discharge from the safety valves. This issue is different and separate from the safety valve setpoint issue.

However, because the setpoint issue resolution may significantly impact piping support design requirements, resolution of the piping supports issue is being deferred.

Resolution of the piping support issue will be made in conjunction with, and implementation will follow, resolution of the safety valve setpoint issue. Our engineering organization is presently evaluating the use of a steam trim package on the safety valves with the loop seals drained to the surge line or pressurizer. We will continue to work with the Westinghouse Owners' Group in resolving the safety valve setpoint issue.

Control Room Design Review

  • Controller and Switch Modifications
  • Indicator, Recorder, and Controller Modifications
  • EOG and Auxiliary Shutdown Panel Replacements
  • Flow Indication and Recorder Modifications
  • Pressurizer Spray Valve Position Indication
  • Status Light Modifications These items had been previously identified to correct human engineering deficiencies (HEDs) noted during the Control Room Design Review (CRDR).

These items are being rescheduled primarily to avoid excessive control room activity during the Surry Unit 1 outage, since Unit 2 will be operating and the Units 1 and 2 control rooms are shared. There will already be a significant amount of activity in the control room related to the air handling unit modifications being performed during this outage.

  • Main Steam Atmospheric Relief Valve Replacement This item was originally stated as "improve operability of the main steam PORVs".

In a letter (Serial No. 89-7 43) dated December 14, 1989, we stated that we would address this issue by replacing the valves. Following further evaluation of the main steam atmospheric relief valve performance, it was determined that pilot valve stem and disc corrective maintenance was necessary. This corrective maintenance has restored valve operability. Therefore, replacement of the valves is not considered to be necessary at this time.

As indicated during the August 13, 1990 meeting, it is our intention to reassess a number of these CRDR items in view of operational experience and our operators' simulator performance. It is also our intention to close out the remaining outstanding CRDR items (either by completion or by some other disposition based on reassessment) by the end of 1994, which is consistent with our commitment for completion of the remaining CRDR actions.

Recirculation Spray Instrumentation Recirculation spray instrumentation was discussed as a five year planned improvement during the August 13, 1990 meeting. This item, although not a Surry specific commitment, is being addressed as a result of a finding in the North Anna R. G. 1.97 inspection. This item remains open for Surry pending resolution at North Anna.

MATERIALS AVAILABILITY CONCERNS There are some commitment activities planned for the upcoming outage where materials availability concerns exist. As identified during the August 13, 1990 meeting, these activities are:

  • Motor Operated Valve/Operator Replacement
  • Emergency Vent Dampers and Semi-Vital Bus Voltage Indications (R. G. 1.97)

In these cases, where materials become available to support this outage, the activities will be completed during this outage. If the activity is not completed during this outage, it will be accomplished either as a non-outage activity following this outage or during the next Surry Unit 1 refueling outage.
