SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is at 90% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon, BOL. Online risk is green. 1B Heater Drain Pump is OOS for motor replacement for the past 3 days. Expected back in service in 7 days. 1CV8149C was returned to service last shift following maintenance to replace its fuse block. Following completion of turnover, the shift manager requests the BOP swap 75 gpm letdown orifices from 1CV8149B to 1CV8149C per BwOP CV-9, step F.3 for an upcoming clearance order on 1CV8149B to replace its fuse block while the RO monitors reactor power.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the crew will swap 75 gpm letdown orifices. The BOP will manually lower letdown pressure, remove 1CV8149B from operation and place 1CV8149C on-line. The BOP will then restore letdown line pressure and restore letdown to automatic operation After completing the letdown orifice swap, the master pressurizer pressure controller will fail to 2195 psig (0% demand) in automatic. The RO will identify the failure and take manual control to restore pressurizer pressure.
After the master pressurizer pressure controller failure has been addressed, the 1A component cooling water pump will trip. When the 1A CC pump trips, the 1B and 0 CC pumps will not automatically start on low system discharge pressure due the 1B CC pump discharge pressure switch being failed high.
The crew will manually start a standby CC pump, either the 1B or 0 CC pump, to restore system flow and dispatch operators to investigate the malfunctions. Technical specification 3.7.7, condition B applies until the U-0 CC pump is racked into bus 141.
After the component cooling water pump trip has been addressed, the rod control summing amplifier will malfunction, resulting in uncontrolled inward rod motion. After checking turbine power stable, the RO will place rod control in Manual to stop the inward rod motion. 1BwOA ROD-1, UNCONTROLLED ROD MOTION, will be implemented. Rods will remain in Manual control for the remainder of the scenario.
After the rod control failure has been addressed, a 1C Steam Generator Tube Leak will be initiated. The crew will implement 1BwOA SEC-8, STEAM GENERATOR TUBE LEAK. The crew should determine from the estimated leak size that a fast ramp to remove the unit from power is required and make preparations to ramp the unit off line using 1BwGP 100-4, POWER DESCENSION.
After the SGTL has been addressed and the crew has ramped the unit sufficient for a reactivity manipulation, the generator voltage regulator output will fail high, causing the main generator to be overexcited. The BOP will turn the voltage regulator to off/test and manually lower main generator excitation using the base adjuster.
After the voltage regulator malfunction has been addressed, the 1C SGTL will worsen to a 300 gpm Steam Generator Tube Rupture. The crew will implement 1BwEP-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION. When SI actuates, a solenoid failure will cause 1IA066 to fail closed, resulting a loss of Instrument Air to containment. IA to containment will remain unavailable for the remainder of the scenario.
The crew will transition to 1BwEP-3, STEAM GENERATOR TUBE RUPTURE, based on secondary radiation trends on the 1C SG. After determining PZR pressure control is unavailable, the crew will transition to 1BwCA-3.3, SGTR WITHOUT PRESSURIZER PRESSURE CONTROL.
The scenario is complete when the crew has terminated high head SI in 1BwCA-3.3.
Critical Tasks
- 1. Isolate feedwater flow into and steam flow from the ruptured SG prior to completing step 4 of 1BwEP-3.

SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is at 100% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon, BOL. Following completion of turnover, Generation Dispatch has requested Unit 1 to reduce power by 125 MW at 3 MW/min due to grid demand.
The shift manager requests the BOP to swap GC pumps per BwOP GC-5, in preparation for an OOS on 1GC01PA next shift.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the US will direct the crew to reduce power by 125 MW at 3 MW/min due to grid demand. The crew will commence a power reduction at 3 MW/min.
After a measurable change in power, the BOP will swap stator cooling pumps per BwOP GC-5.
After swapping GC pumps, 1C SG NR level transmitter 1LT-539 will fail low. 1FW530, Feedwater Regulating Valve, will open fully and 1C SG level will rise. The BOP will take manual control of 1C SG level and stabilize 1C SG level. 1BwOA INST-2, OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL, Attachment E, will be implemented. The BOP will restore 1C SG level control to automatic after 1C SG level is restored to normal and an operable 1C SG NR level controlling channel is selected. Technical specifications 3.3.1, conditions A and E and 3.3.2, conditions A and D are applicable.
After the 1LT-539 failure has been addressed, letdown pressure controller 1PK-131 output will fail low.
The letdown PCV will close and letdown pressure will rise lifting the letdown line relief valve. The ATC will take manual control of letdown pressure controller and restore letdown pressure. The crew may isolate letdown due to the lifting letdown relief valve. If letdown is isolated, it will be restored per BwOP CV-17. US will enter tech spec 3.4.13 and then exit when relief resets.
After the 1PK-131 controller failure is addressed, RWST level channel 1LT930 will fail low. The crew will enter 1BwOA INST-2 Attachment S. Technical Specifications 3.3.2 conditions A and K apply.
After the RWST level channel failure is addressed, the 1C Heater Drain pump will trip due to overcurrent.
The crew will implement 1BwOA SEC-1, SECONDARY PUMP TRIP, and start the 1B Heater Drain pump.
Technical Specifications do not apply. The 1C Heater Drain pump will remain unavailable for the rest of the scenario.
After the 1C Heater Drain pump has been addressed, Rod H-8 will drop into the core causing Tave to drop and reactor power to further drop. The crew will implement 1BwOA ROD-3, DROPPED OR MISALIGNED ROD. After the crew has made sufficient reactivity manipulation to stabilize plant conditions, either by adjusting Tave to within 3oF of Tref, or commencing a load reduction to reduce power to within the range allowable for the dropped rod recovery, a second rod (D-4) will drop into the core. The crew should identify that two rods have dropped into the core and trip the reactor. The crew will take immediate actions per 1BwEP-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION.
After the transition to 1BwEP ES-0.1, the thermal hydraulic shock from the reactor trip results in a SGTR.
When the main generator trips, an ABT failure of breaker 1562 results in the 1B RCP being de-energized.
The crew will manually actuate safety injection and return to 1BwEP-0. The 1B AF pump will not start. The 1A AF pump fails to auto-start. The crew will manually start the 1A AF pump.
The scenario is complete when the crew has terminated high head injection and established normal charging flow in 1BwEP-3.

SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is operating at 75% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon. Online risk is yellow. 1B RH pump has been OOS for breaker work for the past 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br />. LCO 3.5.2 has been entered. Expect 1B RH pump back in 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />. Following completion of turnover, the shift manager requests the BOP to start the 0B WS pump in accordance with BwOP WS-1, STARTUP AND OPERATION OF THE NON-ESSENTIAL SERVICE WATER SYSTEM, and secure the 0C WS pump in accordance with BwOP WS-3, SHUTDOWN OF A NON-ESSENTIAL SERVICE WATER PUMP, for an upcoming clearance order on the 0C WS pump. Align the 0C WS pump for standby after it is secured. Operators have been briefed and are standing by at the Lake Screen House to support WS pump swap.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the BOP will swap WS pumps in accordance with BwOP WS-1 and BwOP WS-3. The Unit will get a phone call from chemistry stating the spray additive tank sodium hydroxide solution concentration is 28%. The US will address the Tech Spec requirements and determine that TS 3.6.7 condition A will be entered.
After swapping WS pumps and spray additive TS, 1LT-460 will fail low. The crew will implement 1BwOA INST-2 and take actions to restore PZR level control and stabilize plant conditions by restoring letdown. TS 3.3.1 conditions A and K apply (LCO 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 for Accident Monitoring and Remote Shutdown Panel minimum channel requirements are still met).
After the PZR level channel failure, feedwater line pressure detector 1PT-508 will fail high over a 30 second period. Both main feedwater pumps speed will lower, reducing feedwater flow and causing all steam generator levels to begin lowering. The crew will take actions to stabilize the plant by taking manual control of the main feedwater pumps. 1BwOA INST-2, OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL, Attachment J, will be implemented. 1PT-508 will remain unavailable for the remainder of the scenario.
After the 1PT-508 failure has been addressed,a degraded bus voltage will occur. Bus 141 and 142 voltage will drop to 3900 volts and will bring in annunciator 1-21/22-C7 and require the operator to open breakers 1412/1422. Per BwAR 1-21/22-C7 with voltage below 3990 volts the operator is required to open the SAT feed breakers to the ESF busses, if no operator action occurs the bus voltage remains at 3900 volts for 310 seconds and then the SAT feed breakers will automatically open. When the 4 KV ESF busses are de-energized the 1A DG will pick up bus 141. The 1B DG will start, but bus 142 will be faulted. TS 3.8.1 condition A and 3.8.9 condition A applies.
After the degraded bus voltage has been addressed, the NRC phone will ring and the crew will be notified of an aircraft heading toward Braidwood Station and will arrive in the next 20 minutes. The crew will initiate a rapid reactor downpower.
Once the above actions have been taken to initiate a rapid downpower, a trip of the main turbine will occur. The reactor does not automatically trip and the manual trip switch at 1PM05J is disabled. The crew should trip the reactor from 1PM06J and complete immediate actions of 1BwEP-0. When the reactor trips, one control bank rod and three shutdown bank rods will not fully insert. The crew will transition to 1BwEP ES-0.1 and initiate emergency boration for the stuck rods.
Once the crew has initiated emergency boration, a loss of all offsite power will occur and the 1A DG will trip resulting in a loss of all AC power to the unit. The crew will transition to 1BwCA-0.0. The crew must restore power to Unit 1 within 10 minutes. After power is restored to Bus 141, a transition will be made to either 1BwCA-0.1 or 1BwCA-0.2.
N144 Page 52

SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is operating at 8% power, steady state, xenon slowly building in. Unit 1 was in process of starting up the main turbine when the main turbine had high vibrations. Unit 1 is being shutdown for repairs. Following completion of turnover, reduce power less than 5%.
After completing shift turnover and relief, a failure of intermediate range N-36 detector will occur. The crew should take actions per 1BwOA INST-1. Technical Specifications 3.3.1 conditions A & F apply.
After the Intermediate Range failure is addressed, PZR level channel 1LT-459 will fail high. 1CV121, charging header flow control valve, will lower charging flow and pressurizer level will lower. The ATC will take manual control of PZR level and stabilize PZR level. 1BwOA INST-2, OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL, Attachment C, will be implemented. The ATC will restore PZR level control to automatic after PZR level is restored to normal and an operable PZR level control channel is selected.
After the 1LT-459 failure is addressed, reactor power will be reduced to <5% by inserting rods.
During the rod insertion, the reactor will be tripped when reactor power is <5% and then the BOP will reset the feedwater isolation (FWI) and restore feedwater to the SGs.
After the crew restores feedwater, 1A CV pump shaft will shear. The crew will implement 1BwOA PRI-15, LOSS OF NORMAL CHARGING. The crew will start the 1B CV pump to restore normal charging.
Technical Specifications 3.5.2 condition A and TRM 3.1.d, condition A applies.
After the crew addresses the 1A CV pump shaft shear, the 1A Essential Service Water pump will trip due to overcurrent. The crew may implement 1BwOA PRI-8, ESSENTIAL SERVICE WATER MALFUNCTION, or use the BwAR and start the 1B Essential Service Water pump. Technical Specifications 3.7.8, condition A applies. The 1A SX pump will remain unavailable for the rest of the scenario.
After the Essential Service Water malfunction has been addressed, the 1B RCP shaft will fail. RCS flow in the 1B loop will drop. The 1B RCP will dislodge components into the RCS, followed shortly (30 sec) by a large break LOCA in RCS loop 1B due to the dislodged RCP components. Pressurizer pressure will fall to the auto SI setpoint, but auto SI actuation will fail requiring a manual SI actuation. 1A RH pump will trip when starting. The crew must manually start 1B RH pump to establish low head ECCS flow. The crew will take actions per 1BwEP-0, REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION. The crew will transition to 1BwEP-1 after determining that the RCS is not intact.
When the RWST level reaches the low-2 setpoint, the crew will transition to 1BwEP ES-1.3, TRANSFER TO COLD LEG RECIRCULATION. With the 1A RH Pump tripped, the crew will have to align the 1B RH train for cold leg recirculation.
Completion criteria is performance of 1BwEP ES-1.3, step 5.
