Safety Analysis

The safety significance of the event is minimal. TS 3.5.1 allows Unit 2 to remain at power for 14 days with an inoperable HPCI if the IC is operable. Unit 2 was in compliance with TS 3.5.1 during this event as the IC was operable and HPCI was inoperable for approximately 1 day. Therefore, the consequences of this event had minimal impact on the health and safety of the public and reactor safety.

E.

Corrective Actions

The corrective actions to prevent recurrence of this event are:

DNPS will schedule PM refurbishments for the remaining nine controllers prior to the originally scheduled PM due dates of 2010 (Complete)

F.

Previous Occurrences

A review of DNPS LERs for the last three years did not identify any LERs associated with controller failures attributed to age degradation of a power supply.
