In accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 6.6.1.B, we wish to inform you of an abnormal occurrenco which was identified on May 11, 1973 at 2230 hours.                       During pressuriza-tion preparatory to starting reactor coolant pumps for the per-formance of a hydrostatic leak test of the Reactor Coolant System, prior to initial criticality, a leak was apparent in Valve Subsequent        Number 204B which is located in the charging line to Loop 21.

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

In accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 6.6.1.B, we wish to inform you of an abnormal occurrenco which was identified on May 11, 1973 at 2230 hours0.0258 days <br />0.619 hours <br />0.00369 weeks <br />8.48515e-4 months <br />.

During pressuriza-tion preparatory to starting reactor coolant pumps for the per-formance of a hydrostatic leak test of the Reactor Coolant System, prior to initial criticality, a leak was apparent in Valve Number 204B which is located in the charging line to Loop 21.

Subsequent investigation indicated that the leakage was apparently due to a defect in the area of the stud holes permitting reactor coolant to seep into two of the stud holes and from there into containment atmosphere.

Since the leak was due to an apparent defect, the valve is being replaced.

The replacement valve meets all of the requirements of codes and standards applicable to the design and procurement of After equipment as outlined in the Indian Point Unit No. 2 FSAR.

replacement of the valve, the required hydrostatic test of the re-actor coolant system will be performed to insure its integrity.

The valve that is being removed from the reactor coolant system boundary will be subjected to a metalurgical examination in order to determine the exact cause of the leakage and the need for any additional action.

In accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 6.2., appropriate notification of the Station Manager, the Manager of the Nuclear Power Generation Department, and the Chairman of the Nuclear Pacilities Safety Committee has taken place.

Mr. A.

Fasano of your office was also notified on May 12, 1973 of the occurrence.
