| technical safety requirement.  The PSS determined that an update to this     |
| event report is required.                                                    |

| A broken window in a High Energy Line Break Door which is located between    |
| the Main Feed Regulating Valve Room and the Auxiliary Boiler Feed Pump Room  |
| places the plant in an unanalyzed condition.  Maintenance is fabricating a   |
| metal replacement part to cover the opening.  The door is supposed to remain |
| closed at all times when the plant is above 350 degrees F.                   |

| Operators manually tripped the unit from 100% power due to decreasing steam  |

| flow decreased due to a transient in a feedwater heater string. All control  |

| auxiliary feedwater system to restore steam generator water levels (a        |
| confirmatory automatic initiation signal was received). The unit is          |

| "On 1/27/00 at 1201 hours, as-found 10CFR50 Appendix J Type C leakage        |
| testing of the outside containment trip valve 2-DA-TV-200B was determined to |
| be greater than 0.6 La. Leakage was determined to be approximately 182 scfh  |
| versus total minimum pathway leakage acceptance criteria of 180 scfh.        |
|                                                                              |
| "On 1/25/00 the inside containment trip valve 2-DA-TV-200A for the same      |
| penetration was replaced due to an unsatisfactory 1ST stroke time. Removal   |
| and installation of the valve was less than one hour in duration. Following  |
| replacement of the valve, Type C leakage was determined to be satisfactory   |
| for 2-DA-TV-200A, however, excessive leakage was suspected for the outside   |
| trip valve 2-DA-TV-200B.                                                     |

| "By testing conducted on 1/27/00, it was confirmed that during the timeframe |
| of 2-DA-TV-200A replacement, a condition which alone could have prevented    |
| the fulfillment of the safety function needed to control the release of      |
| radioactive material existed.                                                |

| "Currently containment integrity is being maintained by closure and          |
| deactivation of 2-DA-TV-200A in accordance with the station Technical        |
| Specification. Following replacement of 2-DA-TV-200A on 1/25/00, Type C      |
| testing was performed with satisfactory results (less than 1 scfh).          |
| Currently total minimum pathway leakage is approximately 3 scfh.             |

| specific wording used in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) to |
| describe the design for those circuits. Further investigation of the         |
| affected components revealed that certain functions appear to not fully meet |
| the separation criteria of Regulatory Guide 1.75, 'Physical Independence of  |
| Electrical Systems.' These circuits include relays for portions of some      |
| Engineered Safety Features (e.g., boric acid makeup pumps and input voltage  |
| to one of the four loss-of-voltage-signal circuits). The UFSAR for Units 2   |
| and 3 indicates these systems comply with IEEE-279, 1971, 'Criteria for      |
| Protection Systems for Nuclear Power Generation Stations' which is           |
| referenced by Regulatory Guide 1.75. Consequently, at 1530 PDT, SCE          |
| concluded this condition was reportable in accordance with                   |

| BOTH EMERGENCY DIESEL GENERATORS INOPERABLE DURING CORE ALTERATIONS          |
|                                                                              |
| "On 1/28/00 at 0005 hrs. the U- 2 Emergency Diesel Generator was found to be |
| inoperable due to the diesel generator room vent fan selector switch being   |
| selected to the alternate feed. The 1/2 Emergency Diesel Generator was       |
| inoperable due to Division I electrical system refuel outage work. Core      |
| alterations were in progress.                                                |
|                                                                              |
| "Per Tech Spec 3.9.B, one diesel generator must be operable in Mode 5, and   |
| when handling irradiated fuel in the secondary containment.                  |
|                                                                              |
| "The switch was aligned to the normal position and vent fan operation was    |
| verified within approximately 15 minutes to restore the U-2 diesel generator |
| to an operable status. An internal investigation is commencing. Although     |
| both the 1/2 and U-2 EDGs were inoperable, both diesels remained available   |
| for operation.                                                               |

| "This event is being reported as required by 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(iii)(D), an    |
| event which alone could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function  |
| needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident."                         |
|                                                                              |
| The licensee informed the NRC Resident Inspector.                            |
