During testing, a small crack (3"- 4" axial crack) was identified on a return line to the torus for both
HPCI and
RCIC (steam driven
ECCS systems). The valve upstream of the leak has been closed, however, the leak is still unisolable between that valve and the torus. This plant condition does not threaten public safety.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector, as well as State and local agencies.
