Descri tion of Event On March 8, 1991, at approximatelv 0100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br />, Operations personnel began discharging liquid waste release number L91-035. The release was automatically terminated at 0131 hours0.00152 days <br />0.0364 hours <br />2.166005e-4 weeks <br />4.98455e-5 months <br /> on a sample flow trip (External Fail).
The sample flow through the off-line radiation monitor (EIIS/IL-MON) exceeded the high flow setpoint (approximately 14 gpm) when the operator was attempting to balance the release flow rate and sample flow rate in accordance with the procedure 12 OHP 4021.006.004. In accordance with step 10.8 of the procedure, the individual called the Unit Supervisor (US) to request restart of the release. This step allows restart of the release if the termination was due to a sample flow adjustment problem. The US agreed to the restart. At approximately 0157 hours0.00182 days <br />0.0436 hours <br />2.595899e-4 weeks <br />5.97385e-5 months <br />, while, attempting to adjust sample flow, the release was once again automatically terminated due to sample flow out of. limits. It was at this ti'me the radiation monitor went not only into an External Fail status but also went into a Hi Fail status on channels 1 and 3. Channel 1 is the detector which views the effluent sample. Channel 3 is the local area detector which is not associated with the actual release. It should 'adiation also be recognized that the External Fail flow alarms are displayed using channel 1.
After the second trip, the US requested another operator to investigate the problems the shift was having with this release. The individual reviewed the Radiation Monitoring System (RMS) CRT and noted the Hi Fail status and the count rate exhibited by channel 1 which appeared normal. He deduced incorrectly that the Hi Fail was not valid since the detector response appeared normal and below the high alarm setpoint, therefore the problems existed in adjusting sample flow.
The release was restarted at 0245 hours0.00284 days <br />0.0681 hours <br />4.050926e-4 weeks <br />9.32225e-5 months <br /> and continued until completion at 0500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br />. During this time, the monitor was in a Hi Fail status with channel 1 ten-minute averages at negative count rates. A Hi Fail status provides a trip signal to the isolation valve and monitor tank pump and should nothave allowed restart of the release.
The condition was discovered by Operations personnel when obtaining a ten-minute average history printout from the control terminal (CT) for the Eberline Radiation Monitoring System at the end of the release as required by 12 OHP 4021.006.004.

Technical Specification 3/4.3.3 LCO 3.3.3.9.requires that with.,a required channel inoperable, releases may continue up to thirty days providing at least two independent samples are analyzed in accordance with Specification 4.11.1.1.1 and at least two qualified individuals verHy discharge valving prior to initiating the release otherwise, suspended releases, via this pathwav. This specification was not complied with from approximatelv 0245 to 0500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> for release L91-035.
Cause of Event The event was caused bv two factors. The primarv. factor .is the failure of the Hi Fail status of RRS-1000 to produce a trip. signal Co.;terminate Ithe release. The second factor is attributed to the failure of.. the operator,.to recognize the significance of a Hi Fail status; 'I Analysis of Fvent A review of the release flow rate, the dilution water flow rate and the radioanalvtical results of. the Monitor Tank being. release -indicates that,-the actual total NPC value for the release was 3.70E-4"when, accounting for the Monitor Tank release flow rate (1.24E+2 gpm) and the dilution water flow rate (1.20E+6 gpm). This event did not have an'mpact on the he'alth and safetv of the public.
Batch liquid releases were ceased pending initial investigation. They have since continued under the requirements of LCO 3.3.3.9, Action Statement'3.
Corrective Action Troubleshooting of the liquid discharge Monitor (RRS-1000) has verified trip signals and valve isolation due to a Hi Fail status. Operations procedure 12 OHP 4021.006.004 has been revised to require a channel check of the required channel before initiating the release and while the release is in progress.
The change will also include acceptance criteria for the channel check.
