This situation was not recognized by the operator or the Radwaste Foreman involved with the heating boiler flush. At the time     "A" heating boiler was blown down to the storm sewer, the radioactivity was 4.6 X 104 pei/1, per the 2/5/83 sample. The "A" boiler blowdown was secured at 0400 hours on 2/6/83. Total blowdown was 3/4 of the steam drum sight glass which is approximately 700 gal.

Event Description and Probable Consequences (con't) samples for that period of time were LLD. Therefore, the station's Tech. Spec.

of 100 pei/1 in the discharge canal was not exceeded and all discharges to the river were below 10CFR 20 Appendix B limits for general public. Unit operation was not affected by this occurrence. There was no effect on the public health and safety.

Similar previous occurrences were reported by Deviation Reports D-12-2-80-39 and D-12-2-76-91.
