| "On 06/02/99 at 1630 CDT, the Plant Shift Superintendent (PSS) was notified  |
| that numerous sprinkler heads were corroded, affecting 16 sprinkler systems  |
| in C-337 and 1 system in C-333, such that the ability of the sprinklers to   |
| flow sufficient water was called into question.  Subsequently, these         |
| sprinkler systems were declared inoperable, and TSR-required actions         |
| establishing roving fire patrols were initiated.  This deficiency was        |
| detected during scheduled system inspections conducted by Fire Protection    |
| personnel.  Currently, functionality of the sprinkler heads has not been     |
| fully evaluated by Fire Protection personnel, and the remaining cascade      |
| buildings are currently being inspected, and if necessary, this report will  |
| be updated to identify any additional areas.                                 |

| During preparations for overspeed surveillance testing of the D23 diesel     |
| generator an inadvertent 'C' emergency service water pump start signal was   |
| received causing the pump to start.  The cause of the event was personnel    |
| error by an I&C technician during installation of a speed signal generator.  |
| The speed tachometer was being calibrated and was set at 900 rpm when the    |
| speed signal generator used for overspeed testing was hooked up.  Normally   |
| the calibration would be complete and the signal generator set at zero rpm   |
| prior to hookup.  All systems responded as expected.                         |

| ACTUATION OF A "Q" SAFETY SYSTEM.                                            |
|                                                                              |
| At 1631 hours on 6/16/99, operations personnel responded to a high voltage   |
| outleakage smokehead alarm at the X-333 Low Assay Withdrawal (LAW) condenser |
| accumulator area.  Operators responded per alarm response procedures and     |
| checked for outleakage and observed smoke at Instrument Control Panel (ICP)  |
| Number 13.  Operators immediately evacuated the area, called 911, and        |
| initiated a building recall.                                                 |
|                                                                              |
| The Emergency Response Organization (ERO) responded and monitored air        |
| quality for hydrogen fluoride, airborne radioactivity, and surveyed for      |
| surface contamination.  All sample results were less than minimum detectable |
| activity.  Investigation determined that a Dalton fitting in ICP#13 was      |
| cross threaded and was considered a possible source of the outleakage.       |
|                                                                              |

| with Safety Analysis Report, Section 6.9 (24-Hour Report).                   |

| Relay 2-RLY-073-23A-K36 was required to have inhibits (boots) installed to   |

| group 4 HPCI isolation during the performance of step 7.15.15 of the         |
| surveillance procedure.  The licensee determined that the wrong contacts had |
| been inhibited allowing the actuation to occur.  The inhibits were removed   |
| and the PCIS GP-4 isolation was reset at 1402 CDT returning HPCI to an       |

| INFORMATION CALL - A FIRE ON OWNER CONTROLLED PROPERTY                       |
|                                                                              |
| A fire of yet undetermined origin was discovered by a janitor at             |
| approximately 2240 hours, Thursday, June 17, in a temporary office trailer,  |
| north of the Palisades Training Building. The trailer complex is located     |
| one-half mile from the operating plant. There was no impact to the Training  |
| Building or the plant's operation, and the plant remained at full power.     |
|                                                                              |
| The control room was notified after discovery of the blaze. The control room |
| dispatched the plant's fire brigade and Covert Fire and Ambulance department |
| to the scene. The plant fire brigade began immediate setup of hoses and      |
| began initial fire fighting until the Covert Fire department arrived, some   |
| 15 minutes later.                                                            |
|                                                                              |
| Cause of the fire has not been determined. An investigation will be          |
| initiated. There were no injuries and no one was in the trailer office at    |
| the time.                                                                    |

| A safety inspection will be conducted today of all plant offices and         |
| trailers for potential fire hazards.                                         |

| ESF ACTUATION - VACUUM BREAKER                                               |
|                                                                              |
| At 0250 CDST 2PC001D, the 2D Primary Containment Vacuum Breaker went from    |
| the (normal) closed position to an indicated dual position.  Locally it was  |
| determined that the valve was just cracked open.  The valve is designed to   |
| open when Suppression chamber pressure is approximately 0.5 psig greater     |
| than Drywell pressure.  When the vacuum breaker opened the aforementioned    |
| differential pressure was approximately 0.2 psid.  The vacuum breaker was    |
| closed by an Equipment Attendant and then cycled per LOS-PC-M2 "Unit 2       |
| Drywell-Suppression Pool Vacuum Breaker Operability Test for Condition 1,2   |
| and 3" to verify proper operation. The valve cycled satisfactorily.          |
|                                                                              |
| The licensee notified the NRC resident inspector.                            |
