BROWNS .?ERRY NUCLEAR PLANT (BFN) - UNITS 1, 2, AND 3 - DOCKET NOS.-50-259,'260,-AND 296 - FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE DPR-33, 52, AND 68 - LICENSEE EVENT REPORT 50-259/97003 The enclosed report provides. details concerning a valve.
alignment which could reduce the effectiveness of the pressure suppression function of the suppression pool. If Division 1 of the Primary Containment Isolation System faf. led while in this valve alignment and a Design Basis Loss of Coolant Accident occurred, containment pressure could exceed the maximum containment design pressure. The root cause was a design error, in that no interlock precluded this method,-nor did design output or the Final Safety Analysis Repvrt (FSAR) caution against this alignment. Consequently, this report is submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73 (a) (2) (ii) (B) as any event or condition that resulted in the nuclear power plant being in a condition that was outside the design basis of the plant.
