Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant, Unit I and Unit 2 Special Report 2010-003-00, Alternate AC Source Out-of-Service Report Enclosure Special Report 2010-003-00

Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant, Unit 1 and Unit 2 Special Report 2010-003-00, Alternate AC Source Out-of-Service Report Enclosure Special Report 2010-003-00 This Special Report is being submitted due to the Unit 1 and Unit 2 Alternate AC (AAC) source, 2C Diesel Generator (DG), not being restored to operable status within 10 days.

Technical Specification 5.6.11 requires notification to the NRC if the AAC source is out of service for greater than 10 days.

At 8:20 p.m. on October 22, 2010 the 2C DG was declared inoperable, for Unit 1 only, due to scheduled Service Water (SW) piping replacement work during the Unit 1 refueling outage. The duration of the SW piping replacement went beyond 10 days and therefore a notification to the NRC is required.

The 2C DG was placed back in a fully available status on November 4, 2010 at 3:27 p.m. when SW was restored. Surveillance testing was completed for the 2C DG on November 4, 2010 at 5:27 p.m.
