| Title | High Pressure Coolant Injection Declared Inoperable Due to a Steam Leak |
| Event Description | While performing the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) high pressure run required by SR 3.5.1.6 following Unit 3 refueling outage D3R21, a steam leak developed from the HPCI turbine. The steam leak resulted in a HPCI room high temperature alarm and the HPCI turbine was manually tripped. The U3 HPCI system was declared inoperable and Tech Spec LCO 3.5.1 condition G.1 and G.2 were entered.
The condition is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(v)(D) as a condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of a system that is needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident. Maintenance activities are currently in progress to restore system to operable status. The failure resulted in the licensee entering a 14-day LCO action statement for restoration. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
