| Title | Unusual Event Declared Due to Co2 Discharge to the Cable Tray Room |
| Event Description | At 1326 on 7/31/06 there was a discharge of CO2 to the cable tray room. This is not a normally accessible room. Plant personnel verified no smoke, no fire. At 1340 the order was given to evacuate all personnel from the Reactor and Auxiliary Buildings as a precautionary measure. An Unusual Event was declared (HU3) at 1344 due to the affect on normal operation of the plant. The CO2 has been isolated, the buildings are being walked down and atmospheric testing is underway in the affected areas.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector, Canada, State and County officials.
At 1344 an Unusual Event was declared due to a toxic release into the Auxiliary Building (HU3). Release was due to a CO2 initiation, and has been isolated. Reactor building and Auxiliary building have been evacuated. Air sampling of the affected areas is underway. Notified R3 DO (O'Brien).
Walk downs for atmospheric conditions are complete and satisfactory for all areas of the Auxiliary Building. Normal access to Auxiliary building has been restored. This restores access to all affected areas. Unusual Event is terminated at 2133. Notified IRD (T. Blount), R3 DO (K. O'Brien), NRR EO (M. Tschiltz), DHS (Biasco) and FEMA (Kimbrell). |
