| instead, a master list of packages is presented with the delivery (the |
| packages are scanned when they are loaded onto the truck). The package has |
| not been reported as misdelivered by any other FedEx customers. |

| INSTRUMENT AIR CONTAINMENT PENETRATION FAILED LEAKAGE TESTING |
| |
| "Currently Clinton is in RF-7. During performance of LLRTs of the Instrument |
| Air penetration (1 MC-057), AOV 1IA005 (outboard isolation valve) would not |
| close upon demand. The solenoid was later found to be sticking. Therefore, |
| this valve was an as-found failure. Subsequently, the testing of the inboard |
| containment isolation valve in this same penetration (1IA006), showed a |
| leakage of 27,500 sccm at the air regulator assembly. When other known |
| leakage pathways are combined with this leakage, the secondary bypass |
| leakage criteria of 0.08 La (28,883 sccm) is violated (Tech Spec Section |
| 3.6.1.3 SR 3.6.1.3.9), |
| |
| "These valves were repaired, and subsequently successfully passed their |
| LLRTs. |
| |
| "Further analysis of these failures will be performed during the |
| investigation of Condition Report 2-00-10-273." |
| |
| The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
