Event 2: CW Pump #14 Traveling Screen high differential level. The crew will respond using 0POP04-CW-0001, Loss of Circulating Water Flow. The malfunction simulates trash built up on the traveling screens for CW Pump #14 but the screens will not rotate. CW Pump #14 will have to be secured.

Event 3: PZR level channel LT-0465 fails low. The crew will respond using 0POP04-RP-0002, Loss of Automatic Pressurizer Level Control. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 4: SG 1B controlling steam flow channel FT-0522 fails low. The crew will respond using 0POP04-FW-0001, Loss of Steam Generator Level Control. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 5: Loss of Class 1E 480 V LC E1B1. The crew will respond using 0POP09-AN-03M3 annunciator E-5, 480V LC E1B1 TRBL. Power can be temporarily restored through the cross-tie breaker using 0POP02-AE-0001, AC Electrical Distribution Breaker Lineup. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 6: The Main Generator Output Breaker will open and an inadvertent FWI will cause a reactor trip. The crew will respond using 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.

Event 7: On the reactor trip the Main Turbine fails to auto trip The Main Turbine must be manually tripped per the immediate action step 2 RNO of 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. (Critical Task)

Event 8: Loss of Heat Sink and entry into FRH1. When AFW Actuation occurs AFW Pump #14 will trip on over speed, AFW Pump #13 recirc valve will have been left open and AFW Pumps

  1. 11 and #12 will trip on over current. After going through 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, the crew will transition to 0POP05-EO-FRH1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink. (Critical Task)

Rev. 0 STP LOT-20 NRC Scenario #5 Description Termination: The scenario will terminate after the crew has aligned Auxiliary Feedwater to feed Steam Generators per CIP of 0POP05-EO-FRH1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink.

Critical Tasks:

  • Manually trip the main turbine before a severe ORANGE path challenge develops to either the subcriticality or the integrity CSF or before transition to 0POP05-EO-EC21, Uncontrolled Depressurization of all Steam Generators, whichever happens first.
  • Initiate RCS Feed and Bleed so that ECCS injection from at least one SI pump occurs, and the RCS depressurizes sufficiently for intermediate-head injection from a HHSI pump to occur prior to CETs rising to 1200ºF.

Rev. 0 STP LOT-20 NRC Scenario #5 Description Initial Conditions: Current reactor power is 78%. The crew is at step 7.51 of 0POP03-ZG-0005, Plant Startup to 100% and hold points have been satisfied. CD Pump #13 and SU SGFP #14 are removed from service for maintenance. A line of thunderstorms are tracking from the north toward the site.

Event 1: The crew is to re-commence raising power per step 7.51 of 0POP03-ZG-0005, Plant Startup to 100%.

Event 2: CW Pump #14 Traveling Screen high differential level. The crew will respond using 0POP04-CW-0001, Loss of Circulating Water Flow. The malfunction simulates trash built up on the traveling screens for CW Pump #14 but the screens will not rotate. CW Pump #14 will have to be secured.

Event 3: PZR level channel LT-0465 fails low. The crew will respond using 0POP04-RP-0002, Loss of Automatic Pressurizer Level Control. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 4: SG 1B controlling steam flow channel FT-0522 fails low. The crew will respond using 0POP04-FW-0001, Loss of Steam Generator Level Control. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 5: Loss of Class 1E 480 V LC E1B1. The crew will respond using 0POP09-AN-03M3 annunciator E-5, 480V LC E1B1 TRBL. Power can be temporarily restored through the cross-tie breaker using 0POP02-AE-0001, AC Electrical Distribution Breaker Lineup. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 6: The Main Generator Output Breaker will open and an inadvertent FWI will cause a reactor trip. The crew will respond using 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.

Event 7: On the reactor trip the Main Turbine fails to auto trip The Main Turbine must be manually tripped per the immediate action step 2 RNO of 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. (Critical Task)

Event 8: Loss of Heat Sink and entry into FRH1. When AFW Actuation occurs AFW Pump #14 will trip on over speed, AFW Pump #13 recirc valve will have been left open and AFW Pumps

  1. 11 and #12 will trip on over current. After going through 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, the crew will transition to 0POP05-EO-FRH1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink. (Critical Task)

Rev. 0 STP LOT-20 NRC Scenario #5 Description Termination: The scenario will terminate after the crew has aligned Auxiliary Feedwater to feed Steam Generators per CIP of 0POP05-EO-FRH1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink.

Critical Tasks:

  • Manually trip the main turbine before a severe ORANGE path challenge develops to either the subcriticality or the integrity CSF or before transition to 0POP05-EO-EC21, Uncontrolled Depressurization of all Steam Generators, whichever happens first.
  • Initiate RCS Feed and Bleed so that ECCS injection from at least one SI pump occurs, and the RCS depressurizes sufficiently for intermediate-head injection from a HHSI pump to occur prior to CETs rising to 1200ºF.
