On bctober*2, 2019, at 02QO CDT, at 0% power,with the unit shutdown for r~fuehng outage C1 R1~. while performing*: -*
Safety Relief Valve (SRV) testing, *SRV 1 B21-F041.B did r:1ot open upon demand u~ing the Division i Main Control R66m (MCR)' switch. Further,inv~stigation identified that' the Division 1 'MGR switch for SRV 1 B21-F041 B opened SRV 1821-
. FQ51 Band the Divis1on *1' MGR switch for S,RV 1 B21-F051 B open'ed SRV 1 B21-F041 B. Initial investigation determined this.conditiori was* a D'ivision 1 SR\\/ wiring issue that occurre*d during refuehpg*outage C1H17 in May 2017. The Division 1 SRVJ B2Hro41B and SRV 1 B~h-F051B wiring was corrected and a post-maintenance test completed. The cause of this.condition is t:Jr;ider investigation. *The causal factors that resulted in the conditiont associated corrective-actions, and s*~'fety consequence? ~ill be provided in a revision to this Licensee Event Report (LE(i)'.' This conditiqn rer:i.ae~ed the Automatic Depressuriiati6n Syst~m (ADS) function for SRV 1 B21-F041 B inoperable since March 2017. As a result;_

{One ADS valve inoperp-ble), which requires an.inope'rable ADS va,lve be restored within 14 days,, was riot.rn~t.
, T~erefore, the condition d~scribed in t~1s,LER is reportable.under 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(iHB), any operation cir condition which 'h'.as p~ohibited by the.plant's Technical Specifications.
