Title | Loss of Emergency Assessment Capability Due to Out-Of-Service Radiation Monitors |
Event Description | At 2125 on 4/24/15, 1R-2, Containment Vessel Area Radiation Detector failed. Previously, 1R-7, Incore Seal Table Area Radiation Detector, had failed on 4/20/15. The compensatory measure for 1R-2 out-of-service is to verify 1R-7 operating properly and the compensatory measure for 1R-7 out-of-service is to verify 1R-2 operating properly. With both monitors out-of-service and Unit 1 operating in Mode 5, no compensatory measure is available that will allow timely classification of two Emergency Action Levels (EALs) - Notification of Unusual Event (NUE) classification (RU2.2) and Alert classification (RA3.2). This results in a Loss of Emergency Assessment Capability while 1R-2 and 1R-7 are concurrently out-of-service. This is a reportable condition per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii).
Monitoring of radiological conditions in Unit 1 Containment showed no indication of RCS leakage or elevated radiation levels prior to the failure of 1R-2. Unit 1 Containment also remains monitored by 1R-48, Containment Hi Range Area Radiation Detector A and 1R-49, Containment Hi Range Area Radiation Detector B, which currently indicate normal radiation levels. Unit 1 Shield Building Stack is also monitored by 1R-50, Shield Building High Range Vent Gas Radiation Detector, which also currently indicates normal radiation levels. Additionally, a temporary portable radiation monitor has been placed near the location of 1R-2 and is being continuously monitored. The plant remains in a safe condition and there was no effect to the health and safety of the public. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
