Title | |
Event Description | On 9/21/18, at 1755 EDT, Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Unit 3 declared the High Pressure Coolant Injection system [HPCI] inoperable due to an inoperable differential pressure indicating switch [DPIS]. The DPIS is used to isolate the HPCI system when there is a high steam line flow condition. Operations declared the HPCI system inoperable and entered Technical Specification 3.5.1 Condition C for HPCI being inoperable. Technical Specification 3.3.6.1 was also entered for HPCI instrumentation being inoperable. Other standby systems (Reactor Core Isolation Cooling and Low Pressure Emergency Core Cooling Systems) are OPERABLE.
HPCI is a single train system. Therefore, per NUREG-1022, this condition is being reported pursuant to 10CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(D) as a condition that could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of a system required to mitigate the consequences of a design event. This condition has been entered into the corrective action program (IR 4175355). Investigation of the exact cause of the indication issue is in progress. The NRC Resident has been informed of this notification.
On 09/22/18 at 0955 EDT, RCS [Reactor Coolant System] pressure boundary leakage was identified as the cause of the HPCI high steam flow indication issue. Technical Specification 3.4.4 was entered which will require the initiation of a nuclear plant shutdown. This indicates a degradation of a principal safety barrier. Current Unit 3 reactor power is 35%. This condition is being reported pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(i) and 50.72(b)(3)(ii). This condition is being tracked in the corrective action program (IR 4175355). The NRC Resident has been informed". Peach Bottom will be notifying State and local agencies regarding the event. Notified the R1DO (Greives). |
