Title | Loss of Erds Capability |
Event Description | This report is being made per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii) regarding a loss of offsite communication capability in that Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station would not have been able to establish a connection with the NRC Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) within one hour if the need had arisen. This condition was discovered at 0900 hours0.0104 days <br />0.25 hours <br />0.00149 weeks <br />3.4245e-4 months <br /> on August 23, 2010, and existed from approximately 1900 hours0.022 days <br />0.528 hours <br />0.00314 weeks <br />7.2295e-4 months <br /> on August 20 until 1123 hours0.013 days <br />0.312 hours <br />0.00186 weeks <br />4.273015e-4 months <br /> on August 23, 2010.
Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station switched the plant telephone system from a digital system to a Voice Over IP system at approximately 1900 hours0.022 days <br />0.528 hours <br />0.00314 weeks <br />7.2295e-4 months <br /> on August 20, 2010. This change resulted in eliminating the requirement to dial the number '9' prior to dialing an outside line. The plant process computer (PPC) modem function program contained the NRC modem number preceded by the number '9' and when the changeover occurred the '9' was not deleted in the PPC program. This would have resulted in an error message if an attempt to connect with the NRC had been made. Information Technology (IT) estimates that it would have taken two hours to reprogram and establish the ERDS connection to the NRC. The ERDS data on the PPC was available but would have to have been transmitted to the NRC by an alternate method. 10 CFR 50.72(a)(4) requires one hour to activate the ERDS after declaring an emergency class of alert, site area, or general emergency. This situation was recognized at 0900 hours0.0104 days <br />0.25 hours <br />0.00149 weeks <br />3.4245e-4 months <br /> on August 23, 2010 by IT personnel. The ERDS connection capability was restored to fully functional status at 1123 hours0.013 days <br />0.312 hours <br />0.00186 weeks <br />4.273015e-4 months <br /> on August 23, 2010. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
