NRC FORM 366A (9-831 1. 0 Description of the Event* On June 30, 1987 with Unit One at 100% power and Unit Two at 69% power, it was determined as a result of a company initiated safety system functional inspection, that a unique scenario could exist whereby auxiliary feedwater
* (AFW) {EIIS.:..BA}
could be lost to an operating unit. In the event of a high energy line break (HELB) in the main steam valve house (MSVH) of an operating unit, the AFW pumps {EIIS-P} on that unit could be rendered inoperable due to the harsh environment.
With the unaffected unit at cold .shutdown and only one of its motor driven AFW pumps available.*
for cross connect to the affected unit, an assumed loss of offsite power, with a single failure could result in a loss of AFW to' the affected unit. The existing Technical Specification requires that only one motor driven AFW pump be available when the unit is at cold shutdown.
This specification was developed in 1980 to provide assurance that AFW could be supplied from one unit to another in the event that the AFW pumps in one unit were destroyed by fire (Appendix R). The HELB event was not considered at that time, and Appendix R does not require cqnsideration of the single failure criterion.
This event is reportable in accordance with lOCFR 50. 73(a) (2) (v). 2.0 Safety Consequences and Implications This scenario is not analyzed in the UFSAR. ever, a main steam line break is a condition IV event and is of very low probability.
Engineering is reviewing the original safety analysis to determine whether an unreviewed safety question exists. Additionally, Functional Restoration Procedure H.l provides guidance in-the event of total loss of FW and AFW to the Steam Generators.
Further protection is provided through an extensive non-destructive testing program of the main steam postulated break points in the main steam valve house .

The UFSAR does not consider .the possibility that only one AFW pump from the unaffected unit might be available when that unit is at cold shutdown.
