| THE PLANT ENTERED A 14 DAY LCO ACTION STATEMENT DUE TO HIGH PRESSURE COOLANT |
| INJECTION (HPCI) SYSTEM BEING DECLARED INOPERABLE.                           |
|                                                                              |
| During routine surveillance testing of the Containment Cooling Water System  |
| (CCWS), required system flow through the HPCI Room Cooler could not be       |
| obtained due to leakage past 2-3999-252 check valve.                         |
|                                                                              |
| With the HPCI Room Cooler inoperable, the HPCI System was declared           |
| INOPERABLE, a 14 day LCO Action Statement was entered, and an action request |
| for repair of the 2-3999-252 valve was submitted.                            |
|                                                                              |
| The NRC Resident Inspector was notified by the licensee.                     |
|                                                                              |
| * * * UPDATE AT 1917 ON 07/19/00 BY MARK RUNION TO JOLLIFFE * * *            |
|                                                                              |
| Upon further review of this event by Dresden Operations and Engineering      |
| Department personnel, the licensee determined that with the HPCI Room Cooler |
| blower available, even without CCWS flow to the HPCI Room Cooler, the HPCI   |
| System will perform its required function and remain operable.  Thus, the    |
| HPCI System was not inoperable at the time of the notification of this event |
| and therefore, this event is not reportable to the NRC.  Based on this, the  |
| licensee desires to retract this event.                                      |
|                                                                              |
| The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.  The NRC Operations        |
| Officer notified the R3DO Mike Parker.                                       |

| "On July 20, 2000 at 0352 hours a Reactor Coolant system leakrate of 0.30    |
| gpm was calculated. Currently the Charging and Letdown systems are isolated  |
| for maintenance. Investigation revealed the leakage being from the Excess    |
| Letdown system to the systems isolated for maintenance, which are located    |
| outside Containment. This leakrate exceeds the limit of 0.68 gph outside     |
| Containment and therefore is a condition outside the design basis of the     |
| plant. The Control Room Ventilation system is inoperable and a 72 hour       |
