| Title | Plant Process Computer Removed from Service for Maintenance |
| Event Description | {{#Wiki_filter:At 0900 CDT on September 10, 2012, the Unit 1 Plant Process Computer (PPC) was removed from service for a planned replacement in the current Unit 1 Refueling Outage. The Unit 1 PPC feeds the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) used in the Main Control Room (MCR) and the Technical Support Center (TSC). The Unit 1 PPC also feeds the Emergency Response Data System (ERDS).
The Unit 1 and Unit 2 PPCs also feed the Plant Parameters Display System (PPDS) used in the MCR, TSC and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF). Meteorological data will remain available. The dose assessment program will remain functional as the Unit 2 PPC will be capable of providing the necessary data through PPDS to run the program. The dose assessment program is not affected by the Unit 1 PPC being out of service. As compensatory measures, a proceduralized backup method to fax or communicate via a phone circuit applicable data to the NRC, TSC, and EOF exists. There is no impact on the Emergency Notification System (ENS) or Health Physics Network (HPN) communication systems. The new Unit 1 PPC is scheduled to be functional on September 17, 2012. However, based on the Mode Unit 1 will be in, this will limit the number of points that would provide usable data. The Unit 1 PPC will be tested as Mode changes occur. The Unit 1 PPC is planned to be declared functional by Mode 2. A follow-up ENS call will be made once the Unit 1 PPC is declared functional. The loss of SPDS and ERDS is a 'major loss of assessment capability' and is reportable under 10CFR50.72(b)(3) (xiii). The NRC Senior Resident Inspector and the State of Illinois (through the Illinois Emergency Management Agency Resident Inspector) have been notified of this ENS call.
As of 1245 CDT on October 3,2012, the Unit 1 PPC is considered operational with respect to the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS), Plant Parameter Display System (PPDS), and Emergency Response Data System (ERDS). Therefore, a major loss of assessment capability no longer exists on Unit 1. The Byron EP manager contacted the NRC ERDS Center on 10/02/2012 to conduct an ERDS test for Unit 1 to ensure the data was being satisfactorily sent to the NRC. Unit 1 and Unit 2 ERDS data to NRC was tested satisfactory lAW EP-AA-124-F�01. The NRC Resident Inspector and the State of Illinois (through the Illinois Emergency Management Agency Resident Inspector) have been notified of this ENS update. Notified the R3DO (Dave Passehl) }} |
