On April 25, 1995, Northeast Utilities announced that William J. Riffer  
was appointed as the new Unit No.1 Director effective May 17, 1995.  He  
recently retired after 26 years in the Navy.  He held positions as       
commanding officer of the USS Simon Lake and Boston, and Director of     
START Verification for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.  He recently completed 
an INPO orientation at Perry Nuclear Plant.                              
                                                                         
Mr. Riffer is replacing Mr. P. Przekop, the Acting Director, who         
temporarily assumed the duties vacated by Mr. H. Haynes.  Mr. Haynes was 
assigned to lead the NU Nuclear Group reengineering effort. (See MR

Discussion:

AT 11:59 A.M. EDT ON APRIL 25, 1995, BOTH TURBINE BYPASS VALVES FULLY    
OPENED, AND THEN RECLOSED WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 5 SECONDS. THE RESULTING  
PRESSURE TRANSIENT CAUSED A COLLAPSE IN VOIDS AND A POWER SPIKE UP TO 121
PERCENT POWER, RESULTING IN A REACTOR TRIP ON HIGH POWER (118 PERCENT    
SETPOINT). ALL CONTROL RODS INSERTED AND THE PLANT RESPONDED AS EXPECTED 
WITH ONE EXCEPTION. THE MAIN GENERATOR FAILED TO TRIP ON REVERSE POWER,  
AND THE GENERATOR REMAINED CONNECTED TO THE GRID UNTIL THE OPERATORS     
TRIPPED THE GENERATOR APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES AFTER THE SCRAM. THE     
LICENSEE CONTINUES TO INVESTIGATE THE CAUSE OF THE BYPASS VALVES OPENING 
AND RECLOSING AND THE GENERATOR ANTI-MOTORING BREAKER FAILING TO ISOLATE 
THE GENERATOR FROM THE GRID. THE LICENSEE IS ALSO ASSESSING THE EFFECTS  
OF THE FAILURE OF THE GENERATOR TO DISCONNECT FROM THE GRID. DURING THE  
TURBINE COASTDOWN FROM THE SCRAM, MAXIMUM VIBRATION LEVELS AT THE        
CRITICAL SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 860 RPM WERE 21 MILS (ON BEARING #5).    

Regional Action:

THE RESIDENT INSPECTORS WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE INSPECTION COVERAGE OF  
THE LICENSEE'S INVESTIGATIVE AND ASSESSMENT EFFORTS.
