Subject:
Abnormal Occurr2nce No. A0 75-37
Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
[ This telegram is to confirm the conversation between Mr. Lee Spessa'rd I (Region I-URC) and Mr. J. J. Colitz (TMI-Unit 1 Superintendent) at 4915 ..
! hours on October 21. 1975.
The following report is submitted in accordance with paragraph 6.7.2a.1 (page 6-11) of the Technical Specifications.
[
On October 21, 1975, tne Boric Acid Mix Tank was <fesignated as the tank to meet Tech. Spec. 3.2.2 requirements.
! While boric acid was being transferred from the Boric Acid Mix Tank to a i Reclaimed Boric Acid Storage Tank, the cocinon suction strainer for the I Boric Acid Pumps collected sufficient fines to partially obstruct the flow
) of beric acid.
1 Since the Boric Acid Mix Tank was the Tech. Spec. Tank, the strainer change-
- cut necessitated removing the tank from operable status for approximately 15 a minutes. During this time period, a reduction in plant power was conanenced.
The strainer was replaced within approximately 15 minutes and the Boric Acid l Mix Tank and addition system was declared operable per Tech. Spec. 3.2.2.
The power reduction was then tennicated and the plant restored to the l
- previous power level.
s l Very truly yours.
