['l. LER SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION {', BFRO 259 / 83007 Technical Specification Involved 3 6.c.1 Reported Under Technical Specification 6.7 2.b.(2)* Date Due NRC 7/01/83 f Event Narrative: [ Cu 2/5/83, unit 2 was in a refueling outage, unit 3 was operating at 100 percent [ power, and unit 1 was being shutdown after a scram and subsequent failure to reseat of MSRV 1-1-22, when drywell unidentified leakage exceeded 5 gpm

    --                 (Technical Specification 3.6.c.1).      Reactor was placed in cold shutdown. Repairs j                 were effected on MSRV 1-1-22 (see BFR0 50-259/83006). The vacuum relief valve for MSRV 1-1-22 was found opened and was replaced. Four other vacuum relief valves were found damaged and replaced.

On 2/8/83, during reactor heatup, drywell unidentified leakage again exceeded 5 gpm. Unit 1 was placed in cold shutdown. The vacuum relief valve for MSRV 1-1-22 was found damaged and was replaced. MSRV 1-1-22 was found stuck open (see - BFR0 50-259/83006). In addition, the degree indicating arm on the vacuum relief valve was found to be bent and has caused the vacuum relief valve to be stuck open. The degree indicating arms were removed from the vacuum relief valves in unit 1 until these valves are modified during the next outage. The vacuum relief valves on unit 2 were modified during the unit 2 cj cle 4 refueling outage, unit 1 valves are to be modified this refueling outage, and I the unit 3 vacuum relief valves are to be modified during the next refueling outage on the unit. This modification includes the installation of a new modified hinge arm, a new modified hinge shaft, a new modified hinge bearing and associated components, a spacer, and also the removal of the valve position indicators. The modification is required to prevent the damage that occurs to the vacuum relief valvi when abnormal cycling of MSRVs occurs. a The failure analysis revealed that the suspected cause for damage to the vacuum relief valves are opening conditions that were not anticipated in the design r process. Thus, the valves were procurred to operate under conditions less severe { than are actually experienced (see attached NRC'and failure evaluation).

 ,                    The attached safety evaluation by Engineering Design provides justification for
,                     continued operation of unit 3 unti'l the cycle 5 refueling outage. Modifications t -

of these valves will be completed on all three units by the end of the unite 3 cycle 5 refueling outage. Previous Similar Events : None Retention: ?criod - Lifetime; Responsibility - Document Control Supervisor
