SUMMARY

A. Design Change Packages 1EC-3277 Pkg 1 "Salem Pressure Resistant Barrier Review Project"

- This DCP will verify, document and/or upgrade and install penetration seals, internal conduit seals and other barrier features required to provide compartmental isolation in HELB .barriers, Internal Flood barriers, and External Flood barriers at various elevations in the Auxiliary Building, Outer Penetration Buildings, Fuel Handling Buildings, and Service Water Intake Structure. This DCP will establish compliance with existing regulatory commitments contained in the UFSAR and the corrective action statement contained in LER 272/91-009-02. Specifically, the design and installation of barrier features installed in HELB, Internal Flood, and External Flood containment barriers will be verified and upgraded as necessary. There is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification. (SORC 94-020) lEC-3249 Pkg 1 "Replacement of Spray Valve lPSl and 1PS3 Internals" - Rev. 3 - Pressurizer Spray Valves 1PS1 and 1PS3 are being retrofitted with new trim, upgraded valve bonnet bolts, nuts and gaskets, valve packing and actuator spring. The actuator spring will be adjusted due to revised calculations for required actuator thrust obtained from OEM. Also, the bonnet extension for spray valve lPSl will be replaced in kind. A temporary modification associated with the lPSl bonnet will be removed. Also, an isolation valve, lCA-1963 will be added on the control air tubing to provide isolation between the control air supply line to the 1PS3 valve positioner and lPSl & 1PS3 I/P converters. The valve trim and other material upgrades will eliminate problems of seat leakage, body to bonnet leakage and valve body to bonnet bolt corrosion. This will reduce considerably the corrective maintenance work in the pressurizer

SUMMARY

enclosure, which is a high radiation and heat stress area. The basic design and function of the spray valve has not changed. The OEM has recertified the valve to its original design criteria. The modifications will grade the specific valve components to restore the valve reliability to its desired value. The testing will verify that the upper end of the valve flow still meets the minimum plant design criteria of 400 gpm. The proposed testing is bounded by the analysis for a stuck open safety valve. There is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification.

B. Procedures and Revisions NC.NA-AP.ZZ-0023(Q) "Scaffolding & Transient Load Control" - Rev. 1 -

The purpose of this procedure is to provide instruction and assign responsibilities for controlling the erection of scaffolding at both the Salem and Hope Creek stations. In addition, this procedure provides guidelines for the control and storage of transient loads at each plant.

Revision 1 to this procedure incorporates several programmatic changes to the existing guidelines for the erection and control of scaffolding. The first of these changes involves the requirement to enter all scaffolding into the scaffold control log located in the work control center. Another change will allow the seismic restraint requirements to be waived on scaffolding erected in a safety-related area, provided that a Limited Condition of Operation (LCO) has been entered for the associated equipment. This revision also incorporates the requirements of the Pre-startup Walkdown previously included in NC.NA-AP.ZZ-0031(Q), Artificial Island Inspection/Housekeeping Program. Also incorporated into this revision are supplementary guidelines for the control and restraint of transient loads on the Refueling Floor (Reactor Building EL 201 1 ) at Hope Creek. The issuance of

SUMMARY

this revision does not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the bases for any Technical Specification. (SORC 93-024)

C. SAR Change Notices SCN 93-60 "Main Steam Isolation Valves" - Generic wording changes were made to change main steam "stop" valve to correctly read main steam "isolation" valve {MSIV) and to change MSIV "closure" to correctly read MSIV "isolation". These changes will more accurately reflect the function and operation of the MSIVs per engineering evaluation S-C-MDC-1302 and S-C-MEE-0846. Discussions of smaller line breaks clarify the description of the Postulated Break Analysis and an explanation of the relationship between the MSIV test closure times and the MSIV isolation time used in the main steam pipe rupture analysis were also added to the interpretation of the procedure. There is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification. {SORC 94-025)

M29-94-300 "Section 17.2.17" - This change is being made to allow electronic retention of computer generated records, where such a record keeping system would generate certain records by entry of information and "electronic approvals" utilizing a computer terminal. Such "character records" would not reflect the author's original "handwritten" signature or initials in the same way that reproduced facsimile copy of scanned copy would.

Controlled access in the formulating and processing of such records and selected applications for electronic approvals will support programmatic authorization process. A review of the Hope Creek and Salem Generating station's Technical Specifications, Section 6.0, did not reveal any associated bases. Therefore, the proposal cannot reduce the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification. (SORC 94-026)

SUMMARY

S-C-RCS-SEE-0866 "Section 3.5.1.1 11 - The proposal revises SGS-UFSAR Section 3.5.1.1 to provide clarification that the Rod Control System MG set flywheels will not produce missiles under any anticipated accident condition. The addition of this clarification does not affect plant operations and does not reduce the margin of safety as defined in the bases for any Technical Specifications.

(SORC 94-026)

DEF DES-90-01378 "Section 9.5.6 11 - This change to UFSAR Section 9.5.6 is to reflect as-built configuration of the diesel generator start motor air system. The Technical Specifications do not provide a specific discussion of safety function related to the air start motors for the emergency diesel generator.

Therefore, there is no reduction in the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any Technical Specification. (SORC 94-026)

SALEM GENERATING STATION MONTHLY OPERATING

SUMMARY

- UNIT 1 MARCH 1994 SALEM UNIT NO. 1 The Unit began the period operating at essentially full power.

Reactor power varied during the period as a precautionary measure due to the continuous challenges of heavy grass at the circulator inlet area. On March 9, 1994, powe~ was reduced to 75% as a precautionary measure due to the high potential that two circulators would have to be removed from service due to high grass conditions and a problem with a circulating water pump motor bearing. The motor was replaced and the Unit returned to 100% power on March 12, 1994. On March 16, 1994, power was reduced to 11% due to a high influx of grass and subsequent loss of circulators. The circulators were restarted approximately one hour later and the Unit was restored to 100% power on March 17, 1994. On March 19, 1994, power was reduced to 77% for condenser water box cleaning due to the heavy grass conditions. The Unit was restored to 100% power on March 21, 1994, and, with the exception of a brief load reduction on March 23, 1994, due to heavy grass conditions, continued to operate at 100% power until March 30, 1994. On March 30, 1994, heavy grass conditions caused an emergency trip of 13A & 13B circulators and load was reduced to 80%. The Unit continued to operate at reduced power throughout the remainder of the period.
