Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via email:
On July 6, 2023, at 1232 EDT, while operating in Mode 1 at 100 percent power, the supply check valve from the number 2 steam generator to the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump was determined during troubleshooting that it is not able to perform its isolation function. This failure would have resulted in the blowdown of both steam generators during a main steam line break in the number 2 steam generator main steam line upstream of the main steam isolation valves until the operators could isolate the faulted steam generator. Previous evaluation has determined that this condition constituted an unanalyzed condition that could impact containment pressure. There was no radioactive release to the environment. The steam line from the steam generator to the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump was isolated by use of a motor operated valve in the discharge line of the number 2 steam generator. There was no impact to Unit 3 which remains at 100 percent power. The NRC Senior Resident Inspector was notified. This condition is being reported pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(B) as a condition that resulted in the nuclear power plant being in an unanalyzed condition that significantly degrades plant safety. |
