Plant Performance Enclosure 2

August 7, 2007 Unit 2 Reactor Trip

  • I&C technician inadvertently tripped an overcurrent relay on the normal incoming feeder breaker for D 4160 VAC bus during calibration
  • Loss of this bus resulted in a loss of 2 condensate pumps and 2 booster pumps, as well as a recirc runback
  • Plant scrammed on low reactor water level
  • All systems responded as designed; no actuation of HPCI or RCIC
  • Bus re-energized about 1.5 minutes from alternate source
  • Breakdown in risk assessment process Enclosure 2

1A RHR Pump Vibration

  • Vibration observed on 1A RHR pump only during two pump flow in Division 1 (Pumps A & C)
  • Occurs only in loop flow range of 4000 - 6000 gpm
  • Cause of vibration has not been determined
  • Conceptual design being developed to increase natural frequency of the loop Enclosure 2

Alternative Source Term

  • Full scope AST analysis submitted to NRC 8/29/2006
  • Control room inleakage testing showed good results, well within interim licensing basis limits
  • Approval of AST submittal required by 5/31/2010
  • Significant interdisciplinary review at NRR is in progress
  • Planned and potential modifications to support AST are scheduled to complete by spring 2010 Enclosure 2

Staffing

  • Pipeline Replenishment

- Strategies for hiring entry level workers and engineers

- License classes

  • 8 candidates to finish this December
  • 10 SRO candidates started June 2007
  • 16 candidates to start March 2008
  • 16 candidates to start March 2009
  • Average class size of 16

Enclosure 2

Steam Chase Grating Analyses

  • Tool boxes were staged over grated vent openings between Reactor Building steam pipe chase and torus room
  • Hinged vent covers were strapped to vent grating on Unit 2
  • Tool boxes were removed from grating on both units and strap was removed on Unit 2 Enclosure 2

Tool Box Enclosure 2

Steam Chase Grating Analyses

  • Unit 1 limiting parameter is differential pressure on wall between torus room and ECCS pump rooms
  • Unit 1 analysis demonstrated that as-found vent paths provided adequate opening to meet differential pressure limits
  • Unit 2 limiting parameter is differential pressure on wall between torus room and reactor building ground level floor
  • Unit 2 analysis is at the preliminary results stage (not checked)
  • Preliminary results indicate that correcting for mass flow conservatisms will result in differential pressures within the analyzed limits Enclosure 2

TSC HVAC Availability

  • Event represents good incorporation of corrective actions from 2005 TSC white finding
  • EP and work planning personnel discussed work activity during planning phase
  • Work was placed on hold when first phase took longer than expected so issue could be discussed with NRC Region II personnel
  • Region II provided timely feedback regarding SNCs planned course of action Enclosure 2
