| Title | Loss of Power to Containment Radiation Monitors |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via phone and email:
On March 12, 2024, at 2111 EDT, a valid containment ventilation isolation train 'A' and 'B' signal was received due to a spurious loss of power to 1EMF-38 (containment particulate radiation monitor) and 1EMF-39 (containment gas radiation monitor). The power to 1EMF-38 and 1EMF-39 was restored. There was no impact on the health and safety of the public or plant personnel. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified The following additional information was obtained from the licensee in accordance with Headquarters Operations Officers Report Guidance: There were no plant evolutions ongoing at the time of the event and the cause of the loss of power is under investigation. There was no impact to Unit 2.
After further review of the event, it was determined the actuation of the associated containment ventilation isolation train 'A' and 'B' was not valid. This is due to the loss of power being associated with the control room modules for 1EMF-38 and 1EMF-39, and not a result of an actual sensed parameter or plant condition. Therefore, this event notification is being retracted. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. Notified R2DO (Miller) |
