Title | Isolable Leakage Identified from Seal Water Line Weld Inside Rcs Pressure Boundary |
Event Description | Susquehanna Unit 1 commenced a manual shutdown on 06/05/2016 for a maintenance outage. At 2202 hours0.0255 days <br />0.612 hours <br />0.00364 weeks <br />8.37861e-4 months <br /> [EDT] on 06/05/2016, operators began reducing power in accordance with plant procedures. At 0352 hours0.00407 days <br />0.0978 hours <br />5.820106e-4 weeks <br />1.33936e-4 months <br /> on 06/06/2016, the Main Turbine was tripped with reactor power at approximately 15%.
The Mode switch was taken to 'STARTUP/HOT STANDBY' (Mode 2) at 0515 hours0.00596 days <br />0.143 hours <br />8.515212e-4 weeks <br />1.959575e-4 months <br /> on 06/06/2016. Manual insertion of control rods was paused as scheduled for entry into the drywell for inspections. There were no ESF actuations. At 0556, the licensee identified leakage from a weld on seal water line piping connected to the 1B reactor recirculation pump seal area. The location is within the reactor recirculation loop isolation valves, therefore is isolable from the reactor vessel. The piping is ASME Class 2 and is reactor coolant pressure boundary. The reactor was in Mode 2 at the time of discovery. This event is being reported as a plant shutdown required by technical specifications pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(i) and degraded condition pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(ii)(A). Activities are continuing to achieve cold shutdown. The licensee informed the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the NRC Resident Inspector. |
