Event Description | This notification is being made in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) RPS Actuation (scram) for Nine Mile Point Unit 2 which states 'Any event or condition that results in actuation of the reactor protection system (RPS) when the reactor is critical except when the actuation results from and is part of a pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation.' On 03/09/2006 at 2214 while operating at approximately 85 % reactor power (coast down to refueling) a condenser low vacuum condition resulted in a turbine trip and a subsequent reactor scram. A loss of sealing steam most probably caused the loss of condenser vacuum and an investigation is in progress. Special Operating procedure N2-SOP-101 C was entered. All control rods inserted [fully] as expected. Condenser vacuum has been stabilized and the main steam isolation valves are open. The plant is stable and recovery actions are in progress.
Decay heat is being removed via the turbine bypass valves to the main condenser. The condensate and feedwater system is in operation maintaining reactor vessel level. The electric plant is in a normal shutdown lineup and there was no effect from this transient on Unit 1. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
This update is being made to provide additional information to EN# 42403 which was communicated via ENS on 3/10/06 at 0058 hours6.712963e-4 days <br />0.0161 hours <br />9.589947e-5 weeks <br />2.2069e-5 months <br />. During the scram that occurred at Nine Mile Point Unit 2 on 3/9/06 at 2214 hours0.0256 days <br />0.615 hours <br />0.00366 weeks <br />8.42427e-4 months <br />, a primary containment isolation signal to RHR Shutdown Cooling, RHR Head Spray and RHR sample valves was received as designed. No components repositioned as the valves are normally closed during plant operations. The licensee will notify the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified R1DO (P. Krohn). |
