,QUESTION 73 The plant has been scrammed following a complete loss of Turbine Building Closed Cooling.

Why does ONI-P44, Loss of Turbine Building Closed Cooling require starting the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) System?

_____ A. Main Steam Isolation Valves may close due to the loss of Instrument Air requiring RCIC for RPV Pressure control.

_____ B. Main Steam Isolation Valves will close due to high Main Steam Tunnel Temperature requiring RCIC for RPV Pressure control.

_____ C. Motor Feedwater Pump may become unavailable due to high bearing temperatures requiring RCIC as a makeup source of water to the RPV.

_____ D. Reactor Feedwater Pump Turbines will become unavailable due to high seal water temperatures requiring RCIC as a makeup source of water to the RPV.
