SUMMARY

OF CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS FOR THE SALEM UNIT 1 GENERATING STATION MONTH JULY 1997 50-272 Salem 1 08/15/97 R. Ritzman (609) 339-1445 The following items completed during July 1997 have been evaluated to determine:

1. If the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report may be increasedi or 2. If a possibility for an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report may be createdi or 3. If the margin of safety as defined in the basis for any technical specification is reduced. The 10CFR50.59 Safety Evaluations showed that these items did not create a new safety hazard to the plant nor did they affect the safe shutdown of the reactor. These items did not change the plant effluent releases and did not alter the existing environmental impact. The 10CFR50.59 Safety Evaluations determined that no unreviewed safety or environmental questions are involved.

Design Changes Summary of Safety Evaluations lEC-3310, Pkg. 1, Emergency Diesel Generator Low Lube Oil Temperature Setpoint Change. This design change revises the Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) lube oil low temperature setpoint to 100°F. Raising the low lube oil temperature from 80°F to 100°F is conservative and will more promptly alert the operators of a failed heater. This design change does not negatively impact any accident response.

This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

lEC-3438, Pkg. 1, "A" Emergency Diesel Generator Circuit Breaker Voltage Permissive Relay Installation and Indication Modifications.

This design change installs two voltage sensing relays and an auxiliary relay to monitor the output voltage of the "A" Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) . Contacts from the auxiliary relay replace the voltage permissive contact in the closing circuit of the main circuit breaker for the EDG. The setpoints of the voltage sensing relays are at a higher voltage than the previous relays and will prohibit the EDG main circuit breaker from closing when the EDG output is less than the required voltage. This design change also installs indicating lights on the generator control panel to identify when the voltage and speed permissives are satisfied.

This design change does not negatively impact any accident response.

This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

lEC-3453, Pkg. 1, "A" Emergency Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Day Tank Setpoint Change. This design change adjusted the level switch setpoints associated with the fuel oil day tank. This design change allows the Emergency Diesel Generator to run longer after the receipt of the low level alarm and before it runs out of fuel. This change also mitigates the consequences of a loss of the fuel oil transfer pump. This design change does not negatively impact any accident response.

This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

lEC-3533, Pkg. 1, "A" Emergency Diesel Generator Starting and Turbo-Boost Air Compressor Start/Stop Pressure Switches.

This design change replaces pressure control switches for the Emergency Diesel Generator starting and turbo-boost air compressors.

This design change also revises the auto stop setpoint for the air compressors to increase the margin prior to safety relief valve operation.

This design change does not negatively impact any accident response.

This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

SEC-0008, Pkg. 1, Hand Geometry Access Project. This design change installs a hand geometry reader system in the Security Center, enables the elimination of the badge issue and retrieval from the Security Center, and relocates the accountability computer terminals.

This design change was reviewed with regard to the Design Basis Security Threat. Nothing in this design change was determined to contribute to an increased vulnerability to a design basis threat. The use of hand geometry is a program enhancement in that it reduces the possibility of human error in badge issuance and improves Security Center lobby management.

This design change does not negatively impact any accident response.

This design change does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this design change does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Temporary Modifications Summary of Safety Evaluations TMR 97-020, 4KV "A" Vital Bus Undervoltage Relay Tie-Ins. This temporary modification installs steel plates, terminal blocks, circuit breakers, fuse holders, and wiring to eliminate the need for additional bus outages. The additional bus outages would be required to support the installation of the Service Water Accumulator Tank Discharge Valve modification.

This temporary modification does not negatively impact any accident response.

This temporary modification does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this temporary modification does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

Procedures Summary of Safety Evaluations Sl.MD-CM.CAV-0004(Q), Rev. 0, Alternate Feed for 11 Control Room Emergency Air Conditioning System. This new maintenance procedure was written to provide an alternate 230V AC power feed to the 11 Control Room Emergency Air Conditioning System. The normal supply is from the lA vital ventilation MCC. This procedure allows the 11 Control Room Emergency Air Conditioning System to temporarily be powered from the lB vital ventilation MCC during lA vital bus outages with the unit in Mode 5, 6, or undefined.

The safety evaluation concluded that this new procedure does not present any new challenges to the involved systems. The procedure connects the "A" and "B" trains, and there is sufficient independence from the "c" train such that no single failure will result in less than the required power distribution system. This procedure revision does not negatively impact any accident response.

This procedure revision does not increase the probability or consequences of either an accident or a malfunction of equipment important to safety. Therefore, this procedure revision does not involve an Unreviewed Safety Question.

SUMMARY

-UNIT 1 JULY 1997 SALEM UNIT 1

• The unit is in a refueling and steam generator replacement outage and remained shutdown for the entire period. According to commitments from PSE&G and a subsequent confirmatory action letter from the NRC, the unit will remain shutdown pending completion of the following actions:

• Appropriately address long standing equipment reliability and operability issues.

• After the work is completed, conduct a restart readiness review to determine for ourselves the ability of the unit to operate in a safe, event free manner.

• After the restart review, meet with the NRC and communicate the results of that review.
