Total accumulated rainfall during the period was nearly si> (6) inches.

Due to the construction status there were several pathwaya fo r Na te r to enter the pcwer block buildings; for examole, roofs were not ret in place, terrorary construction openings were not clcsed and portions of backfill were not complete making a basin around portions of the buildings.

The Radwaste Building is connected to the Auxiliary Buil hn; basemen; by a large pine tunnel. A lot of the water vhich fell iato or ran into the Radwaste Building ficwed through the tunnel in'.o the Auxiliary Building basement, where most of the flood damage occurred. T'. e elevation of the Auxiliary Building basement is 1974 feet. The high ater point was 1975 feet 6 inches, or approxinately 18 inches above tne basement floor.

Pumps, both electric and encine driven, were used to cump out the inflow; however, three negative factors caused the ef. art to faiA: ( a) The electric sump pumps were fed power frcm a scurce located in the basement.

lhen the pumps started to fall behind, power to the lowec level was turned off and the electric cumps no longer could help with the battle.

(b) The diesel engine pumps have a low head capaci~- Because they were working acainst 25 feet of head, their capacity was greati; dimin-ished. (c) Facause of the large amount of surf- e water around the power block, normal drain ~ age was impossible thus causing a considerable amount of the pump discharge to flow back to the excavated area around the Auxiliary Building and back into the basement.

The safety-related equipment, which was totally or cartially submerged, was identified and listed on 24 Deficiency Reparts and i;onconformance Feports. Approximately 107 "Q" itens are involved; incluaal is piping, valves , purps , motors , limitorque valve operators, gear boxes and electrical control equipment.

2.0 Centractor The Nolf Creek Generating Station is beinc constructed by Daniel International Corporation. Daniel personnel fought the ficed water, documented tne damage, will, with ssistance where appronr: ate, clean and insnect p .ng and valves, and will remove and ship the items being retecned to vendcrs for rework.

Sechtel, for items within their scope of suoply, is notifying vendors of the problem. They will establish with the vendors the requirementa for res toring new con, tion and will perform associated procurement functions.
