SUEJECT: HATCH U:;IT I, DC:V,ET N0. 50-321, 10TIFICATICN CF REPORTAELE OCCURRENCE tio. 50-321/1979-089 t10TIFIED: Ross F. Rogers DATE: 11-6-79 CATE: 11-6-79 TIME: 15:00 EST DESCRIPTION OF REPORTABLE OCCURRENCE Initial Conditicn This occurrence was discovered by A/E while evaluating as-built seismic piping and supports per the requirements of IE Bulletin 79-14. Unit I was operating at full power at the time.

.

Nature of Occurrence It was found that the following system piping is not supported seismic class I: the head vent line near valves B21-F003 & F004; a portion of RHR head spray piping near valve E11-F023; the bypass to condenser valve chest.

Immediate Corrective Action The RHR piping has been modified since the evaluation was performed. This was accomplished per design change request 79-423. A design modification will be generated to provide seismic class I support for the by pass to con-denser valve chest and the reactor head vent lines near valve B21-F003 and F004.

Cause These supports were omitted from .the original design.

Sucolemental Corrective Action '

The aforementioned modification on the bypass valve chest will be implement-ed during the next cold shutdown. Additional supports will be designed for the head vent piping and the change will also be implemented during the .

next cold shutdown.

Status of Redundant or Backuo Systems fio redundant supports exist for any of these system portions.

Impact to Other Unit l No other units were affected by this event.

I

Justification for Continued Operation

.

Even if this unlikely seismic event did occur there would exist no threat to public health or safety for the following reasons. The RHR line supports have been modified; therefore, this item is no longer considered a problem. The bypass to condenser valve chest is downstream from the MSIV's and would be automatically isolated in the event of a line rupture. The worst case wculd be the ru;;ture of the two inch head vent line. Such an event is an analyzed accident for this unit. Any release of steam would be inside the primary con-tainment. Tione of the above situations would prevent a safe shutdcwn, nor would they pose any threat to public health or safety.
