SUMMARY
MONTH SEPTEMBER 1997 The unit is in a refueling and a steam generator replacement outage and remained shutdown for the entire period. According to commitments from PSE&G and a subsequent confirmatory action letter from the NRC, the unit will remain shutdown pending completion of the following actions:
- Appropriately address long standing equipment reliability and operability issues.
- After the work is completed, conduct a restart readiness review to determine for ourselves the ability of the unit to operate in a safe, event free manner.
- After the restart review, meet with the NRC and communicate the results of that review.

SUMMARY
OF CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS FOR THE SALEM UNIT 1 GENERATING STATION The following items completed during September 1997 have been evaluated to determine:
- 1. If the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report may be increased; or
- 2. If a possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report may be created; or
- 3. If the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification is reduced.
The 10CFR50.59 Safety Evaluations showed that these items did not create a new safety hazard to the plant nor did they affect the safe shutdown of the reactor. These items did not change the plant effluent releases and did not alter the existing environmental impact. The 10CFR50.59 Safety Evaluations determined that no unreviewed safety or environmental questions are involved.

DOCKET NO.: 50-272 UNIT: Salem 1 DATE: 10/15/97 COMPLETED BY: R. Knieriem TELEPHONE: (609) 339-1782 malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.
lEA-1259, Pkg. 1, Steam Generator J-Nozzle Replacement This design change replaced the original carbon steel feed ring J-nozzles in the replacement Westinghouse F Steam Generators that were installed in Salem Unit 1 with J-nozzles made from inconel. The original J-nozzles in service at a number of plants have experienced wall thinning by erosion and corrosion. The original equipment manufacturer has issued technical bulletins on this problem and recommended the replacement.
This design change does not negatively impact any accident response. This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involv~ an Unreviewed Safety Question.
lEA-1248, Pkg. 1, Rebar Cut For Installation of Motion Restraint Structural arid Runway Beams. This design change is a modification to the Containment Building that was necessary during the Salem Unit 1 Steam Generator replacement. The modification addresses the cutting of rebar in the base mat and in the annular slab that was necessary to accommodate the installation of temporary motion and restraint structures and runaway beams used to facilitate rigging and handling of the steam generators.
