Title | Loss of Control Room Emergency Filtration |
Event Description | On 03/14/06 at 1655 hours0.0192 days <br />0.46 hours <br />0.00274 weeks <br />6.297275e-4 months <br />, the 'A' Control Room Emergency Filtration (CREF) system was removed from service to address a high oil level and subsequent high bearing drain oil temperatures. The 'A' CREF train was declared inoperable and a 7-day LCO was entered. While placing the 'B' CREF train in-service the chiller did not respond as expected. The chiller failed to properly load and supply cooling. At 1659 hours0.0192 days <br />0.461 hours <br />0.00274 weeks <br />6.312495e-4 months <br /> the 'B' CREF train was declared inoperable. This resulted in both 'A' and 'B' trains of CREF [being] unable to perform their design safety function and thus unable to mitigate the consequences of an accident. This failure placed the Hope Creek Station in a Technical Specification 3.0.3 condition requiring a unit shutdown. Oil level was restored to normal band for the 'A' CREF train at 1732 hours0.02 days <br />0.481 hours <br />0.00286 weeks <br />6.59026e-4 months <br /> and the 3.0.3 condition was exited prior to any actions being initiated to start reducing reactor power to achieve a Hot Shutdown condition.
A 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> report is being made under ECG Section 11.2.2.b, an Event/Condition could have prevented certain safety functions IAW 10.CFR50.72(b)(3)(v). At the time of event all safety systems were operable. The license has notified the NRC resident inspector.
This is a retraction of the event notification made on 3/14/06 at 20:21 (ET) hours. This event (#42422) was initially reported as a condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident per 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(D). The safety function of the system is to ensure that the ambient air temperature does not exceed the allowable temperature for continuous duty rating for the equipment and instrumentation cooled by this system. Further review has determined that the Control Room Emergency Filtration (CREF) chiller system maintained its capability to complete its specified safety function. During the event, the chilled water and affected room temperatures increased only minimally and remained well below the maximum allowable temperatures. The proceduralized in-progress activity to address the 'A' chiller high oil level condition promptly re-established full system cooling prior to approaching any required temperature limits. The procedure was completed in a timely manner with no complications. Therefore, the temperature limits of the Control Room and equipment rooms would not have been challenged had an event occurred during the time 'A' chiller oil level was being adjusted and the safety function of maintaining room ambient air temperature within limits would have been accomplished. The licensee has notified the NRC resident inspector. R1DO(Holody) notified. |
