Facility:
BSEP Unit No. 2 Event Date:
7-17-79 CAUSE DESCRIFTION AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS:
Moderate steam cuttin,. the seat and disk were verified during disassembly.
c Target Rock's opinion is that the steam cutting of the seat and disk was the cause of the inadvertant operation of the valve. Target Rock recomends in-stalling model 7567F main steam relief valv(, which are insensitive to pilot leakage. We are awaiting field evaluation of these valves before consideration is made for us to use them.
