Dear Mr. Ebneter:
Re: Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 Docket Nos. 50-250 and 50-251 4A Containment Spray Pump Re est for Discretiona Enforcement On August 9, 1989, during discussions with the NRC Region II Staff, Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) requested NRC approval to extend the allowed out of service time for the 4A containment spray pump. The NRC subsequently -approved discretionary enforcement for a 48 hour5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> period. The purpose of this letter is to document FPL's request and the justification for the discretionary enforcement, as well as to identify the circumstances which led to the discretionary enforcement.
The 4A containment spray pump had been refurbished during the last Unit 4 refueling outage and subsequent testing showed acceptable performance. The results of the May 30, 1989 monthly surveillance test, however, showed an increase in shaft vibration into the alert range, and as a result, the frequency of testing was increased.
On August 8, 1989, at 9:30 a.m., the pump was taken out of service for balancing and alignment. Following this activity, the pump was retested. The testing identified vibration beyond the acceptance criteria and the pump was declared inoperable. An event response team (ERT) was formed and actions were taken to restore the pump to service.

Mr. Stewart D. Ebneter L-89-292 Page two Extending the allowed .out of service time from 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to 72 hours is considered acceptable for the following reasons:
The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> time period is consistent with industry practice as evidenced by the requirements of the Standard Technical Specification for Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactors (NUREG-0452, draft Rev. 5). Specification 3.6.2.1 allows one of two containment spray systems to be inoperable for a period of seven days before shutdown is required provided other containment cooling components are operable.
2 ~ The Final Draft of the Turkey Point Revised Technical Specifications issued by the NRC on March 14, 1989 provides a 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> allowed out of service time. This specification was included in our June 5, 1989 license amendment request to adopt the revised technical specifications.
- 3. Before taking the 4A containment spray pump out of service for maintenance, the 4B containment spray pump was tested to demonstrate operability as required by existing Technical Specification 3.4.2.b.2. The pump results were satisfactory.
- 4. During the 48 hour5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> extension, the three emergency containment coolers and the 4B containment spray pump will not be taken out of service for maintenance.
FPL appreciates the prompt consideration given by the NRC Residents and the Region II and Headquarters Staffs in this matter.
