Licensee Emergency Classification X Notification of Unusual Event Alert Site Area Emergency General Emergency Not Applicable
SUBJECT:
UNIT 1 TRIP AND FIRE ASSOCIATED WITH MAIN GENERATOR DESCRIPTION:
On February 7, 2009, at 1059 CST, Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 1 declared a Notice of Unusual Event based on a fire onsite. The fire occurred on the 354 foot elevation iso-phase bus deck of the turbine
building. The fire was attributed to a failed bonnet on a manual valve which had unthreaded during
operation releasing hydrogen in the vicinity of the hydrogen add station. The licensee extinguished the fire using water and posted a re-flash watch. There were no reported personnel injuries. Offsite assistance was requested from the London Fire Department which arrived onsite after the fire had been
extinguished.
Operators manually tripped the reactor prior to discovery of the fire, based upon notification of the
hydrogen leak. The plant is currently stable with decay heat removal via the steam dumps to the main
condenser. The licensee informed state/local agencies and the NRC Resident Inspector.
The Unusual Event was terminated at 1338 CST after confirmation that the fire was extinguished and a
review of the exit criteria as defined in plant procedures. The licensee has informed state/local
agencies.
The information presented herein has been discussed with the licensee and is current as of 1000 CST.
No further action by the staff is anticipated.
