Scenario Outline Facility: LaSalle Station Scenario No.: ESG 1 Op Test No.: 1 Examiners: Operators:

Initial Conditions:

  • Unit 1 startup is in progress IAW LGP-1-1, step E.4.5, Heatup/Pressurization.
  • TLO Temperature controller in manual.
  • Online Safety level is green.
  • Unit 2 is operating at 100% power.

Turnover:

  • Control rods are being withdrawn to raise Rx power for mode change to OC1.
  • 1A RHR system is running for surveillance, LOS-RH-Q1 and is ready to be secured.
  • Turbine shell warming is in progress.

Event No. Malf. No. Event Event Type* Description RO 1 N/A R Pull rods for reactor startup. LGP-1-1 in progress.

SRO BOP 2 N/A N Secure 1A RHR from surveillance LOS-RH-Q1.

SRO BOP 3 CAEP I 1A RHR min flow valve 1E12-F064A fails to open.

SRO RO 4 MNI098 I IRM C fails upscale. This results in half-scram on RPS bus A.

SRO RO 5 CAEP C Blown RPS fuse 1C71-F18C occurs during reset of half scram.

SRO BOP 6 MCN002 C Lake Screen House Travelling Screen Trouble/CW Pump Trip.

SRO

  • (N)ormal, (R)eactivity, (I)nstrument, (C)omponent, (M)ajor Transient

Narrative Summary Event(s) Description 1.2.1 After the crew has taken the shift, the SRO should direct the RO to continue with control rod pulls to raise reactor power for mode change to OC1.

1.2.2, 3 The SRO should also direct the BOP to secure the 1A RHR system from its quarterly surveillance test. The BOP should shutdown the RHR loop in accordance with LOS-RH-Q1. While securing the RHR loop, the RHR minimum flow valve, 1E12-F064A, will fail to open because of a bad flow switch instrument. The operator will be able to open the valve manually, but the flow instrument must be considered inoperable and appropriate tech spec actions taken.

1.2.4, 5 Once the BOP operator has responded to the RHR min flow valve problem and the RO has withdrawn sufficient control rods to meet the reactivity change requirements, IRM C fails (inop trip). This results in a half-scram on RPS bus A. The crew should respond in accordance with the abnormal operating procedures and will have to bypass the failed IRM and reset the half scram. When the RO resets the half scram signal, RPS fuse 1C71-F18C will blow. The crew will follow the abnormal procedure, re-insert the half scram, replace the fuse, and reset the half scram. The SRO should refer to tech specs for required actions.

1.2.6 Once the crew has addressed the RPS problems, a Lake Screen House Travelling Screen Trouble alarm is received with a subsequent trip of a CW pump. The attempt to start an additional CW pump will be unsuccessful. The SRO should direct the RO to scram the reactor when he has determined vacuum will not be recovered.

1.2.7, 8 When the RO attempts to scram the reactor, he/she should recognize that all rods did not insert and report this to the SRO. The RO should also initiate the alternate rod insertion (ARI) system. The SRO should enter the emergency operating procedures for a failure to scram. The SRO should direct the RO to perform alternate rod insertion in accordance with LGA-NB-01. The SRO should direct the BOP to start suppression pool cooling in anticipation of a loss of the main condenser. The success path is to perform method 4 of LGA-NB-01 to insert the control rods. This step will allow drainage of the scram discharge volume to allow the rods to insert. Overall plant control will be further complicated by a small LOCA in the Drywell from a failed 1B RR Pump seal.

Critical Steps

1. Crew initiates a manual scram before reactor pressure reaches the auto scram setpoint (1038 psig).
2. With ATWS conditions, crew injects boron and/or performs alternate rod insertion in accordance with the emergency operating procedures to shutdown the reactor.
3. Crew initiates suppression chamber and drywell sprays as directed by the EOPs.

NARRATIVE

SUMMARY

Event(s) Description 2.1 Once the turnover is completed the SRO should direct the BOP operator to transfer heater drain tank level control to pump forward.

2.2 Once heater drains are on pump forward, the SRO should direct an upshift of the reactor recirc pumps to fast speed. The RO should perform the upshift IAW LOP-RR-05.

2.3, 4 After the RR pump upshift, the output signal for the HD Tank level controller will fail causing pump forward valves to close. The BOP operator will respond in accordance with the annunciator procedures and the abnormal procedure. He should attempt to start a standby HD pump. The first pump he starts will trip but the second pump will start and will help to reduce tank level. He may also take manual control of the controller to reopen the pump forward valves.

2.5 After heater drain system parameters have been stabilized, rod 30-4 will drift in. The RO will take actions IAW LOA-RD-101.

2.6 The major transient sequence will begin with a RR flow control valve spuriously ramping open. The crew should recognize the failure, immediately lockup the affected FCV and perform the actions of the abnormal operating procedure (LOA-RR-101). After these actions and some troubleshooting activities, the RR FCV problems lead to a RR system break in the drywell.

2.7, 8, 9 The break in the drywell will require actions in the RPV Level Control and Drywell Pressure control legs of the emergency operating procedures. After emergency operating procedure entry, additional failures will include a failure of 1B/1C RHR to auto start (can be started manually) and a failure of the drywell spray valves that are initially selected for use.

Critical Steps

4. The crew establishes drywell sprays prior to exceeding the limits of the PSP curve.
5. The crew establishes flow through the RHR Heat Exchanger within 30 minutes of exceeding 105°F in the suppression pool.

NARRATIVE

SUMMARY

Event(s) Description 3.1 Once the crew has accepted the unit, the SRO should direct the RO to commence the power ascension to 100% power at 300 MWE/hour in accordance with LGP 3-1 and LOP-RR-07.

3.2 The SRO should also direct the BOP to complete LOS-RP-W1.

3.3 After LOS-RP-W1 is performed, the RCIC drain pot alarm will annunciate. The RO should take the required actions per LOR 1H13-P601-D502 and isolate the 1E51-F360 after two minutes.

3.4 When the crew has addressed the RCIC problem. a trip of the running Instrument Nitrogen (IN) compressor will occur. The BOP should acknowledge/announce the control room alarms and refer to the applicable alarm and abnormal procedures. The BOP should cross-tie IN with the Instrument Air (IA) system. An operator should be dispatched locally to investigate and restore IN.

3.5 After the IN system has been restored, the operating TDRFP seal injection pump will trip and the standby pump will fail to auto start. The crew will be able to start the standby pump manually.

3.6 Once the crew has restored seal injection, the A TDRFP flow transmitter will fail, causing the A TDRFP min flow valve to open. The RO should verify the A TDRFP min flow M/A station is in manual and position the feed pump min flow as required for plant conditions.

3.7 A malfunction was initially inserted to simulate a broken containment monitoring instrument line.

This break will have the following effects: - Fail Division 1 drywell pressure indication - Fail Division 1 ECCS and EDG automatic initiation - Prevent remote operation of Division 1 drywell spray The diagnosis of the exact cause of these failures is not the immediate concern while performing the actions of the symptom-based LGAs. More important is that the operators recognize the impact of these failures in performing the EOPs (e.g., using redundant instrumentation, manually initiating affected systems if needed).

3.8 Once the reactor is manually scrammed or reactor water level is stabilized, a major steam leak propagates inside the primary containment which requires entry into the LGAs. Actions will include initiating suppression chamber sprays and drywell sprays. As previously mentioned, the operators will need to recognize the impact of the containment line instrument break and take appropriate compensatory actions.

Critical Steps

6. Crew recognizes failure of Division 1 ECCS to initiate and take action to manually initiate Division 1 logic and systems as required.
7. Crew initiates Drywell Sprays before drywell pressure exceeds the limits of the Pressure Suppression Pressure curve in the emergency operating procedures.

Dynamic Simulator Scenario Outline ESG 4 NARRATIVE

SUMMARY

Event(s) Description E.1 Once the turnover is completed, the SRO will first direct a power reduction to 85% at 300 MWe/hr for load following.

E.2 The SRO should also direct the BOP operator to swap the A swap of primary containment chillers from 1A and 1C online to 1B and 1C online in accordance with LOP-VP-02. This swap should occur without incident.

E.3 After sufficient progress in the containment chiller swap, the CRD FCV setpoint will fail low, requiring the RO to take manual control and open the FCV to regain flow.

E.4 Later, the 1A TDRFP will develop a lube oil leak requiring the S/U of the MDRFP and S/D of the 1A TDRFP. The crew should lower power to stay within the capacity of the MDRFP and the 1B TDRFP.

E.5 Once the major actions of the previous events have been completed, a main generator high hydrogen temperature alarm will come in. The crew will follow the annunciator and abnormal operating procedures and dispatch a NLO to the local skid. Upon investigation, they will discover that the hydrogen temperature controller has failed. The BOP operator will have to take manual control of the temperature controller to clear the alarm.

E.6 The next event will be am isolation of the A LP Heater String. The crew should maintain plant parameters IAW LOA-HD-101.

E.7,8,9, When the crew has stabilized the plant following the heater string isolation, a trip of the and 10. 1B Stator Cooling Pump will occur, requiring a scram. The 1B TDRFP will not trip, requiring immediate actions per LOA-FW-101. A five (5) rod ATWS will occur and the 1A EHC Pump will trip due to a rupture in the EHC line. This will remove the ability to control Reactor pressure via the Main Condenser.

Critical Steps

8. With a reactor scram required and the reactor not shutdown, take action to reduce power by injecting boron and/or inserting control rods, to protect the primary containment.
9. During an ATWS, with reactor power less than 3%, maintain reactor water level between

-150 inches and +59.5 inches using only preferred ATWS systems..
