N ."The leaking water is being pumped to storage drums and a plan is being developed to replace the six-inch condensate transfer piping which penetrates the turbine building inside a 42 Inch long sixteen inch diameter penetration sleeve. Previously, water was observed coming from the sleeve into the turbine building where it was draining to a sump. The leak coming out of the turbine building was uncovered during excavation to determine if the condensate was leaking to the soil." The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.

  • UPDATE PROVIDED BY CALVIN TAYLOR TO JASON KOZAL AT 0907 ON 08/26/09 ***The licensee corrected the reported concentration to 10 million picocuries/liter.

Additionally, after closer examination the leak rate was determined to be approximately 5 GPM vice the initially reported less than 20 GPM.The licensee will be issuing a press release.Notified the RIDO (White).
