| Title | Technical Specification Shutdown Due to Small Reactor Coolant Leak on a Recirculation Flow Control Valve Vent Line |
| Event Description | This event is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(i) and 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(A).
On June 16, 2013 at 0200 EDT, the Perry Nuclear Power Plant commenced a controlled plant shutdown. The shutdown was due to a small leak through the base of a vent line on the 'B' Reactor Recirculation Flow Control Valve. On June 15, 2013 at 2250 EDT, the leak was identified and was subsequently determined to require a plant shutdown in accordance with Technical Specification 3.4.5, Action (C) which requires the plant to be in Mode 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified." The licensee will also be notifying state and local authorities. The licensee had come down in power to make a drywell entry and investigate drywell leakage indications. Steam was observed to be coming from a vent line that comes off the top of the recirc flow control valve. The licensee was unable to characterize the leak rate other than a small leak. The licensee stated that the steam appeared be coming from a weld location where the vent line comes out of the flow control valve which would classify it as pressure boundary leakage. |
