SUBJECT:

Failure of 21 Ilydraulic Shock and Sway Arrestors on piping systems in the Drywell, including units on both Core Spray and both Isolation Condenser loops.

This event is considered to be an abnormal occurrence as defined in the Technical Specifications, paragraph 1.15.D. Notification of this event as required by the Technical Specifications, para-

. grap:16.6.2.a, was made to AEC Region I, Directorate of Regulatory Operations, by telephone on Monday, September 10, 1973, at 12:45 p.m., and personally to Mr. E. Greeman on Monday, September 10, 1973.

SITUATION: The plant was shutdown on September 8,1973 for the purpose of inspecting the flydraulic Shock and Sway Arrestors located on

~ ~

piping systems throughout the Drfwell.

CAUSE: The snubbers were made inoperable due to a loss of hydraulic fluid.

REMEDIAL ACTION:

The failed liydraulit Shock and Sway Arrestors were replaced using snubbers ' rebuilt with seal kits supplied by the Bergen Paterson Pipe Support Company. The new' seals are of'a different type, which according to Bergen Paterson, will provide a longer seal life.
