TOLEDO EDISON COMPANY DAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION UNIT ONE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION FOR LER NP-33-79-114 DATE OF EVENT: October 4, 1979 FACILITY: Daivs-Besse Unit 1 IDENTIFICATION OF OCCURRENCE:

Decay Heat Cooler 1 Component Cooling Outlet Valve CC1467 would not operate Conditions Prior to occurrence:

The unit was in Mode 1, with Power (MWT) = 2770, and Load (Gross MWE) = 920.

Description of Occurrence: On October 4,1979 at 1007 hours0.0117 days <br />0.28 hours <br />0.00167 weeks <br />3.831635e-4 months <br /> during the performance of ST 5074.01, Component Cooling Water Monthly, CC1467 would not move. Component Cooling Pump 1 was shut off. Additional attempts to mov e the valve were unsuccessful.

The operator suspended the test and CC1467 was declared inoperable which rendered Decay Heat and Low Pressure Injection Train 1 inoperable.

This placed the unit in the Action Statement of Technical Specification 3.5.2 which requires the inoperable train be made operable within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in Hot Shutdown within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

Designation of Apparent Cause of 0:currence: The improper operation of valve CC1467 was attributed to slippage of the valve linkage.

This was caused by a design defi-ciency which allowed vibrations to loosen the bolt that retains the two linkage arms together.

Analysis of Occurrence: There was no danger to the health and safety of the public or to station personnel. An inspection of the Decay Heat / Low Pressure Injection Train 2 was performed to assure its availability.

Corrective Action

Under Maintenance Work Order IC-455-79, the valve linkage was realigned and calibrated. The applicable portions of ST 5074.01, Component Cooling Water Monthly Surveillance Test and ST 5074.02, Component Cooling Water Syr. tem Refuel-ing Test were performed to verify operability. The valve and train 1 were declared 3

operabic at 1415 hourn on October 4, 1979.

Facility Change Request 79-347 was implemented on December 10, 1979 to prevent vibra-tions from loosening the retaining bolts on CC1467 and CC1469. This Facility Change Rtquest is identical to Facility Change Request 79-151 which resolved the vibration problems on Service Water Valves SW1429,1434 and 142.4.

Failure Data:

There have been three previously reported occurrences with valves of this type of actuators. They were reported in Licensee Event Reports NP-33-78-120, NP-33-78-147 and NP-33-79-74.
