47.6 A

1 Anomalies were discovered in the oil of Main Transformer B, predicating future failure of the transformer. A controlled shutdown of the unit was performed to disconnect the transformer. The plant then operated at a reduced power level with the remaining Main Transformer while the damaged one was swapped out with a spare. (see CR-98-1179) 98-05 980917 F

314.8 A

1 Elevated levels of leakage were l

being experienced from the Pressurizer Code Safety Valves. The unit was conservatively shut down due to leak-rate projections. Both Safety Valves were replaced. (see CR-98-1195)

Return to power was delayed by 4% days due to the threat by Hurricane Georges and requirements to receive NRC and FEMA approval for post-hurricane restart.
