NARRATIVE REPORT
      . Unit 1 began the month of June operating at rated thermal power. Shift reduced load to approximately 830 GMWe on 6/1/99 to perform a rod pattern adjustment. The unit was returned to rated thermal power later that day.
Shift briefly reduced load to approximately 895 GMWe on 6/17/93 to atddress a high level alarm in the "A" 8'th Stage Feedwater Heater. Shift began reducing load on 6/22/99 to remove the generator from the grid and repair a steam leak on the "A" Moisture Separator Reheater drain piping. The unit was removed from the grid on 6/23/99.
The unit was retumed to the grid on 6/27/99 and attained approximately 97.5% of rated thermal power on 6/28/99.
Shift reduced load to approximately 755 GMWe on 6/28/99 to perform a rod pattern adjustment. Shift began power ascension on 6/29/99. Ascension was terminated on 6/30/99 with the unit at approximately 98.5% of rated thermal power due to concerns with main condenser vacuum paranieters. Shift continued to maintain rpproximately 98.5% of rated thermal power for the remainder of the month.

The unit was shutdown due to a loss of vacuum 2821-F013C    in the main condenser. Following the scram, the condensate pumps and condensate 2B21-F013D    booster pumps were not available; therefore, the reactor feedpumps could not be 2B21-F013E    used to control reactor water level. The reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) 2B21-F013F    system was used to make up water to the reactor vessel and the safety / relief 2B21-F013G    val as were actuated manually to control reactor pressure. During the event, no 2B21-F013H    safety relief valves were required to have opened automatically, and none did so.

CAUSE/ CORRECTIVE ACTION / COMMENTS:
99-004 (continued)              Corrective actions include the issuance of an operating order, on both units, which establishes operating limits for several parameters that affect condenser vacuum and the addition of a level instrument in the circulating water pump suction pit.
(reference Licensee Event Report 99-006) 99-005 (continued)              while filling and venting the "B" cold reference leg keepfill system. Corrective actions include disciplining involved personnel and changing the calibration of a level instrument. (reference Licensee Event Report 99-007)
NARRATIVE REPORT Unit 2 began the month of June operating at approximately 2708 CMWT. Shift began reducing load on 6/15/99 due to decreasing vacuum in the main condenser. Despite this effort, condenser vacuum continued to decrease.
Shift inserted a manual scram on 6/15/99 in anticipation of a turbine trip on low condenser vacuum. Shift brought the reactor critical on 6/22/99 and tied the generator to the grid on 6/23/99. The unit attained 2708 CMWT on 6/25/99. Shift reduced load to approximately 845 GMWe on 6/25/99 to perform a rod pattern adjustment. The unit was retumed to 2708 CMWT later the same day. The unit experienced an automatic reactor scram on low r: actor water level on 6/28/99. (see description of event 99-005 for details). Shift brought the reactor critical on 6/29/99. Shift tied the main generator to the grid on 6/30/99 and began ascension to 2708 CMWT. Shift continued ascension to 2708 CMWT with the unit at approximately 40% of rated thermal power at the end of this reporting period.
