At 19:29 on 04/27/2006 the Kewaunee Power Station declared two trains of
Shield Building Ventilation (SBV)
inoperable. Train B SBV was declared
inoperable on 4/25/2006 at 17:25 when
SW Train B was declared out of service for a leak that developed on the branch
header to Diesel Generator B and
TS 3.3.e.2 was entered. On 4/27/2006 at 19:29
QA typing discrepancies in RR-119 were discovered. QA-2 components were used in a QA-1 system, which could potentially cause a failure of some safety related equipment powered from this relay rack. As a result, all safety related equipment powered from RR-119 were declared
inoperable and the appropriate technical specifications entered. SBV Train A
Damper Control is powered from RR-119 and was declared
inoperable at 19:29 on 4/27/2006 resulting in two trains of SBV being
inoperable and
TS 3.6.c.1 entered. The QA-2 components that may have an adverse affect on QA-1 safety related components in RR-119 have been removed and both trains of SBV were declared
operable at 00:29 on 4/28/2006.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.

This event was reported on April 27, 2006 (Event Number 42534) for two trains of shield building ventilation (SBV) being declared inoperable. Train B SBV was declared inoperable due to loss of the service water spray system for the SBV charcoal filters and Train A SBV was declared inoperable due to relay rack RR-119 Quality Assurance typing discrepancies (relay rack provides power for SBV Damper Control). Subsequent review of analysis determined that the SBV spray system is not required for post-LOCA operation to control the release of radioactive material. Therefore, Train B of SBV was not required to be declared inoperable when Train B service water was declared out of service. With only one Train of SBV being inoperable, this event is not reportable and is being retracted.
