Page 1 of2
Session Outline:
The evaluation begins with the plant at 100% power steady state operation.
Shortly after the team takes the watch, 23 MFRV will slowly fail closed. The team should recognize the failure and the ATC should transfer control of the valve to manual per administrative guidance ofEN-OP-II5, Conduct of Operations. The team will enter 2-AOP-FW 1, Loss of Main Feedwater.
While the team is progressing through 2-AOP-FW-I (or after exit), VCT level instrument LC 112 will fail low. This will cause an automatic makeup and charging pump suction to swap to the RWST. The team will respond per 2-AOP-CVCS-I, CVCS Malfunctions.
After the team has stabilized charging pump suction, a 900 gpd steam generator tube leak will develop on 23 SG. The team will implement 2-AOP-SG-I, Steam Generator Tube Leak, and begin a shutdown.
After the team starts the load reduction, a fault will occur on the Station Auxiliary Transformer (SAT). 6.9 KV Busses 5 and 6 will de-energize and 21 and 23 EDGs will auto start to re-power 480V Busses 5A and 6A. The team will implement 2-AOP-138KV-l, Loss ofPower to 6.9 KV Bus 5 and/or 6.
While progressing with the shutdown and addressing the loss of SAT, the tube leakage in 23 SG will increase to 280 gpm. The team will diagnose the increase in leak rate and trip the reactor and actuate SI.
Following the reactor trip and SI, the team will have to establish AFW because 23 does not have power and 21 will not auto start (malfunction). 22 AFW pump must be placed in service. to feed 23 and 24 SGs. 21 AFW may be manually started to feed 21 and 22 SGs or 22 AFW pump may be used to feed all four SGs. The team will progress through E-O, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection and transition to E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture. 23 SG will be isolated and the team will cool down the RCS in preparation to depressurize. The team will be unable to depressurize the RCS using E-3. Normal spray cannot be used because no RCPs are in service.
Auxiliary spray will not be available because instrument air to containment will not be available (PCV-1228 will not open). Neither PORV will be available; one is tagged out, and the other's closed block valve does not have power. The team will transition to 2-ECA-3.3, SGTR without Pressurizer Pressure Control.
The scenario will be terminated when SI pumps have been stopped after RCS depressurization in ECA-3.3.

using 2-AOP-INST-l "Instrument or Controller Failures." The channel will be removed from service.
After the channel is removed from service, FCV -625 will go closed with no apparent reason. The team should respond per 2-ARP-SGF and re-open the valve. Ifthe team elects to not re-open the valve, the scenario can continue.
Prior to completion ofthe Subsequent Actions of2-AOP-CCW-l, a steam break will occur in the Turbine Building. The team will attempt to manually trip the plant but the reactor trip breakers will not open.
The reactor will not trip from the Control Room and the team will respond per 2-FR-S.l, "Response to Nuclear Power Generation / ATWS," and will shutdown the reactor by manually inserting control rods and initiating Emergency Boration. The reactor trip breakers will not be locally opened after an NPO is dispatched, until after emergency Boration has been aligned. One MSIV will fail to close from the control switches. The team will proceed through 2-FR-S.l until transition to 2-E-O, "Reactor Trip or Safety Injection."
After the transition to 2-E-0 is made, the team will determine that three SGs are intact and 23 SG is faulted. The Team will also determine that SI did not automatically actuate and must manually actuate SI. The team will transition to 2-E-2, Faulted Steam Generator Isolation and isolate 23 SG. The scenario is terminated after the actions of2-E-2 are complete and a transition to 2-E-l, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant is announced or at the discretion of the lead exammer.

Session Outline:
The evaluation begins with the plant at 100% power steady state operation. The following equipment is out of service:
- 22 AFW pump has been out-of-service for bearing oil line repair for 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

After taking the watch, 21 SO Steam Flow Channel B transmitter will fail high. The ATC will switch to the A channel and the team will enter 2-AOP-INST-1. The CRS will refer to Tech Spec Table 3.3.2-1 and bistables will be tripped.
After bistables are tripped, a fault will occur on 480V Bus 3A. The team will take actions in accordance with AOP-480V-l, "Loss of Normal Power to any Safeguards 480V Bus." Due to the fault on Bus 3A, 22 EDO cannot re-energize the bus. TS require plant shutdown due to 2 trains ofAFW inoperable (TS 3.7.5 condition C).
After team has begun shutdown, 21 RCP will experience #1 seal degradation. The team will perform actions of AOP-RCP-l, Reactor Coolant Pump Malfunctions." The #1 seal degradation severity will then increase requiring reactor trip.

When the reactor is tripped, the turbine upper left stop and control valve pair fail to close. £-.15J7 MSIV's must be manually closed to trip the tiirbme.
{/Y'\\-""D...... l 23 ABFP will not auto start and will not be able to be manually started from the Control Room due to 480V circuit breaker failure. (21 ABFP is de-energized due to fault on bus 3A, and 22 ABFP is out of service.)
The team will subsequently transition to FR-H.l, "Loss of Secondary Heat Sink" due to a loss of AFW flow. SO WR levels will lower until bleed and feed is required.
One PRZR PORV will not open when required. The crew will open the Reactor Head Vent valves. 21 AFW pump will then be successfully started from its ASSS supply, or 23 AFW pump from its normal supply after swapping 480V breakers with the spare breaker. The scenario can be terminated after the head vent valves have been closed, or at the discretion ofthe lead evaluator.
