| During the performance of standby liquid control refueling tests, a signal   |
| is sent to the reactor  water cleanup isolation valves and the recirc sample |
| valves.  The procedure addresses the RWCU valves, but not the recirc sample  |
| valves.  Since the outboard sample valve was secured (tagged) open, it       |
| unexpectedly closed upon initiation of the standby liquid control system.    |
|                                                                              |
| The valves were returned to their pre-test positions.                        |

| A patient, who was prescribed a dose of 100 �Ci I-131 for a thyroid scan,    |
| was administered a dose of 500 �Ci I-131. The patient was released before    |

| returning to the hospital to be administered KI (potassium iodide) to limit  |
| the uptake of radioiodine in the thyroid. The licensee radiation safety      |
| officer did not provide an estimate of the thyroid dose, but stated that     |
