PRELIMINARY NOTIFICATION December 12, 2014 PRELIMINARY NOTIFICATION OF EVENT OR UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE-PNO-III-14-012 This preliminary notification constitutes EARLY notice of events of POSSIBLE safety or public interest significance. Some of the information may not yet be fully verified or evaluated by the Region III staff.
Facility Prairie Island Nuclear Plant Northern States Power Co.
Welch, MN Docket: 50-282 License: DPR-42 Licensee Emergency Classification Notification of Unusual Event Alert Site Area Emergency General Emergency X Not Applicable
SUBJECT:
SHUTDOWN OF PRAIRIE ISLAND UNIT 1 DUE TO INCREASING TREND IN REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM LEAKAGE Prairie Island Unit 1 was shut down on December 10, 2014, to repair a leak from one of two reactor coolant pumps. The leak was identified after plant operators observed an increasing trend in the reactor coolant system leakage rate. The plant shut down after the leakage reached the licensee's administrative limit, which was lower than the required limit of 1 gallon per minute per the Technical Specifications. The peak leakage measured was 0.851 gallons per minute. The reactor coolant pumps ensure adequate cooling of the reactor when the plant is operating at full power.
The NRC Resident Inspectors were promptly notified and were on site to monitor the shutdown. The Resident Inspectors and Region III staff will continue to monitor the activities to repair the leak and the subsequent restart.
This preliminary notification is issued for information only and no further action by the staff is anticipated. State and local officials have been informed.
Region III received initial notification of this occurrence by the NRC Resident inspectors on site who were observing the outage activities. The information presented herein has been discussed with the licensee, and is current as of 1:00 pm CDT, on December 12, 2014.
