SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- NRC #1
- 1. Control rods are used to raise power from 2% to 8% OP L3, Secondary Plant Startup, step 6.28. ATC operator complies with 1 step pull and wait procedural requirement while monitoring relevant controls and diverse indicators. Shift Foreman provides reactivity oversight.
- 2. Regen Hx Isolation Valve, LCV459, drifts to midposition causing letdown orifice valve 8149C to close.
Shift Foreman enters OP AP18, Letdown Line Failure. Excess Letdown is established per OP B1A:IV CVCS Excess Letdown Place In Service and Remove From Service.
- 3. CFCU 12 has a loss of CCW flow due to debris migration causing stator and motor bearing temperatures to rise rapidly and bring in annunciator alarm PK0121, Contmt Fan Clr. Reactor operators identify low flow indications on vertical boards and rapidly rising stator/bearing temperatures using plant process computer trends. The crew secures the CFCU to prevent motor damage and contacts maintenance/engineering for assistance. Shift Foreman enters TS 3.6.6 Condition C, one required CFCU system inoperable such that a minimum of two CFCUs remain OPERABLE (7 day).
- 4. SSPS relay actuation results in Turbine Driven AFW (TDAFW) Pump Steam Supply Isolation Valve, FCV95, failing open and isolation of half of the blowdown sample valves inside and outside containment. S/G levels rise and RCS temperature lowers. FCV95 cannot be closed and the crew must isolate the TDAFW Pump by closing the LCVs to the individual S/Gs or by closing steam supply valves FCV37 and FCV38 from leads 2 and 3 respectively, or by directing FCV95 manually closed in the field (S1CT1) Shutdown TD AFW pump prior to Steam Generator Overfill. Shift Foreman implements TS 3.7.5.B, AFW System for one AFW train inoperable (72 hrs).
- 5. A main steamline break develops downstream of the Main Steam Isolation Valves, outside containment.
S/G pressure drops rapidly resulting in an automatic Reactor Trip and Safety Injection. The crew enters EOP E0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.
- 6. Train B of Safety Injection fails to actuate, requiring the crew to perform numerous manual alignments and pump starts as part of Appendix E, ESF Auto Actions, Secondary and Auxiliaries Status.
- 7. All four main steam isolation valves fail open. Steam leads 1, 3, and 4 may be closed from the control room, but lead 2 (FCV42) requires field action. The crew transitions to EOP E2, Faulted Steam Generator Isolation to isolate S/G 12 and dispatches an operator to locally close FCV42 as part of the critical task to stop the uncontrolled cooldown (S1CT2) Stop uncontrolled cooldown before a severe challenge (magenta path ) develops on F0.4 RCS Integrity.
- 8. The crew transitions to EOP E1.1, SI Termination where they complete the final critical task of the scenario (S1CT3) Terminate SI prior to rupture of PRT.
The scenario is terminated once the final critical task is complete.

SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- NRC #2
- 1. Pressurizer Spray Valve controller failure causes PCV455A to ramp open and RCS pressure begins to lower slowly. PK0516, PZR PRESSURE HI/LO alarms when RCS pressure reaches 2210 psig. The crew follows AR PK0516 guidance to take manual control and close the spray valve. The crew may follow up with the actions of OP AP13, Malfunction of Reactor Pressure Control System or OP AP5, Malfunction of Eagle21 Protection or Control Channel, to restore pressure to normal using manual control.
Alternately, the crew may diagnose the failure prior to the annunciator response activating and enter OP AP13 directly which also directs taking manual control and closing the spray valve.
- 2. PT474, Pressurizer Pressure Transmitter, fails low bringing in multiple Annunciator Alarms. There is no transient associated with this failure, but the failure has significant Operational implications due to its input function as part of various Reactor Protection logic schemes. When failed low, PT474s interlock function prevents Pressurizer PORVs PCV455C and PCV474 from opening on a valid high pressure signal; only PCV456 will still function. The Shift Foreman may elect to enter any of the associated Annunciator Response alarms, but in all cases, will be directed to OP AP5, Malfunction of Eagle21 Protection or Control Channel, which provides information regarding indications, controls, and a listing of the associated Tech Specs:
TS 3.3.1.E, PC474C High Press Trip & TC 441C OT Delta T Trip (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.1.M, PC 474A Low Press Trip (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.2.D, PC 474D Low Press S.I. (72 hrs).
TS 3.4.11, PC 474B PORV Press Interlock o PCV474 (nonclass I), 3.4.11.B1 & B2 to close & remove power from associated block valve (1 hr) o PCV455C (class I), 3.4.11.B1 & B2 to close & remove power from associated block valve (1 hr);
3.4.11.B3 to return to OPERABLE status (72 hrs).
- 3. PT135, Transmitter for Letdown Pressure Control Valve, fails High causing letdown pressure control valve to go full open and letdown flow to rise. AR PK0421, LETDOWN PRESS / FLOW TEMP comes into alarm for Letdown Heat Exchanger Outlet Pressure High as a result of the failed transmitter, while actual letdown pressure lowers to approximately 90 psig as a result of full open control valve response.
Letdown flow increases approximately 8 gpm above normal, resulting in a charging/letdown mismatch.
Procedural guidance in AR PK0421 directs crew to take manual control of PCV135. Crew performs diagnostic brief to determine nature of the malfunction as well as actions required to restore letdown pressure back to normal band.
- 4. Steam Generator 14 develops a 30 gpm tube leak as indicated by rising counts on various radiation monitors. The crew enters OP AP3, Steam Generator Tube Failure. Shift Foreman determines TS 3.4.13.B, RCS Operational Leakage applies and enters OP AP25, Rapid Load Reduction or Shutdow for the ramp offline.
- 5. During the ramp the tube leak develops into a 400 gpm rupture. The crew determines the leak is substantial in size based on a rapid drop in pressurizer level. The Shift Foreman directs a reactor trip and safety injection and the crew enters EOP E0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.

SUMMARY
- NRC #2
- 6. On the transfer to start up power, 4 kV bus G experiences a differential fault. 12kV bus D also trips on differential causing a loss of vacuum as well as tripping of RCPs 12 and 14.
- 7. The crew transitions to EOP E3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, based on RM74 and rising S/G 14 level, where they address the following critical tasks:
(S2CT1) Isolate the ruptured steam generator from the intact steam generators prior to commencing cooldown.
(S2CT2) Perform RCS cooldown at maximum rate to CETC target temperature.
(S2CT3) Depressurize the RCS to meet depressurization criteria specified in Appendix GG.

SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- NRC #3
- 1. Charging Pump CCP 13 trips on over current. The crew responds by entering OP AP17, Loss of Charging to restore normal charging and letdown. Shift Foreman enters ECG 8.1.A - Charging Pump No. 3 Inoperable (establish fire watch; restore to operable status within 7 days).
- 2. ASW Pump 11 trips due to a seized shaft. Standby ASW Pump 12 fails to autostart and cannot be started manually. The Shift Foreman implements OP AP10, Loss of Auxiliary Salt Water and crossties to the Unit 2 ASW system via the ASW crosstie valve FCV601. Shift Foreman enters T.S. 3.0.3 for two trains of ASW inoperable on Unit 1.
- 3. Screen differential pressure begins to rise quickly, bringing in AR PK1301, Bar Racks/Screens. Following annunciator guidance, the crew enters OP AP7, Degraded Condenser, Section C: Traveling Screen Problem and begins to reduce load to 50% or less per OP AP25, Rapid Load Reduction.
- 4. Both Circ Water pumps trip off during ramp, requiring the crew to manually trip the Reactor per OP AP
- 7. The crew enters EOP E0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection and performs their immediate actions.
- 5. On the trip, vital 4 kV bus F trips on differential. DRPI loses power, but crew is able to determine the reactor has tripped based on diverse indications (lowering reactor power and reactor trip breakers open). MDAFW Pump 13 is also lost due to the bus failure.
- 6. Board operators also identify PCV455C in midposition. The valve will not close and must be isolated using the associated block valve 8000B (S3CT1) Close the motor operated block valve upstream of the stuck open PORV prior to rupture of the PRT.
7.
The TDAFW pump trips on overspeed. Steam Generator levels are initially high enough to provide an adequate secondary side heat sink and the crew transitions to EOP E0.1, Reactor Trip Response to stabilize the plant. Steam Generator levels slowly lower below the minimum required level of 15%

SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- NRC #4
- 1. The crew performs a normal weekly fan swap for the Aux Building Ventilation System per OP H1:II, Auxiliary Building Safeguards Ventilation (ABVS) - Normal Operation, Section 6.1. Exhaust Fan E2 trips shortly after the swap bringing in AR PK1517, Aux & FHB Vent Pwr Failure. Exhaust Fan E1 restarts automatically and a field operator is dispatched to investigate. Shift Foreman enters TS 3.7.12.B, Auxiliary Building Ventilation System (ABVS) for one ABVS train inoperable (7 days).
- 2. Volume Control Tank (VCT) level channel LT112 fails low, causing a continuous (and erroneous) makeup signal. The crew diagnoses the level channel failure by comparing other VCT parameters, and by using OP AP19, Malfunction of the Reactor Makeup Control System. The makeup system is secured, and makeup is accomplished (if needed) using manual mode (or enabling the auto mode for short periods).
Crew may elect to use OP AP5, Malfunction of Eagle 21 Protection or Control Channel to take manual control of Makeup Control System.
- 3. A 70 gpm RCS leak develops, requiring entry in OP AP1, Excessive Reactor Coolant System Leakage.
The crew adjusts charging flow and eventually starts a second charging pump to stabilized pressurizer pressure. VCT level can be maintained at the current leak rate, however, and the crew determines a plant shutdown is required. Shift Foreman enters TS 3.4.13.A, RCS Operational Leakage (4 hrs).
- 4. A significant seismic event results in a full load rejection on Unit 1. The crew recognizes the condition based on numerous power level alarms and the ensuing secondary side transient. The crew monitors primary and secondary system responses, most notably rod control, steam dumps, and digital feedwater, to ensure all systems respond appropriately in automatic. Shift Foreman implements OP AP 2, Full Load Rejection to stabilize the plant.
- 5. During the ramp down, Digital Feedwater fails to manual and the Shift Foreman directs a Reactor trip.
- 6. Startup power is lost on the trip followed by a bus differential fault on vital 4kV bus H. Diesel Generator 13 trips and cannot be reset. The crew transitions to EOP ECA0.0, Loss of All Vital AC Power.
- 7. The turbine driven AFW pump fails to autostart requiring the crew to manually start the pump and dispatch field operators to throttle flow.
- 8. Grid Control Center informs the crew that 230kV start up power is not available, but 500 kV is available.
The crew performs actions to isolate RCP seal cooling.
- 9. Power is restored to vital 4kV buses F and G following the guidance of ECA0.0, Appendix DD (Backfeed from 500kV Power) (S4CT1) Energize at least one vital AC bus from prior to implementation of FLEX strategies.
- 10. The crew transitions to EOP ECA0.2, Loss of All AC Power with SI Required where they manually start safeguards equipment. The crew performs the final scenario critical task (S4CT2) Establish flow from at least one safety injection pump.
The scenario is terminated once injection flow is established.

SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- NRC #5
- 1. Crew performs normal charging pump swap per OP B1A:V, CVCS - Transfer Charging Pumps, Section 6.1.
- 2. AR PK0111, CCW Pp 11 Recirc comes into alarm for FCV606, CCW Pump 11 Recirc Valve, open. Crew identifies low pump amps on VB1 and dispatches Nuclear Operator to investigate. Field reports no audible flow sound in spite of indications motor is running. CCW Pump 13 is started manually and CCW Pump 11 shutdown. TS 3.7.7.A, Vital Component Cooling Water (CCW) System, is entered for one loop of CCW inoperable (72 hrs).
- 3. Eagle 21 experiences a Digital Filter Processor (DFP) halt on rack 10. Associated indicators PI456, LI 460A, FI415, FI425, FI435, FI445 (VB2), and PR445, LR459 (CC2) fail asis as well as control channels for PORV 456 (PT456) and Pressurizer Level Control (LT460). Crew responds per OP AP5, Malfunction of Eagle 21 Protection or Control Channel. Shift Foreman reviews Tech Specs, entering:
TS 3.3.2.D, PC 456D Low Press SI (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.1.E, PC 456A High Press Trip (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.1.M, PC 456C Low Press Trip (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.1.M, LC 460A High Level Trip (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.1.M, FC415(425,435,445) RCS Loop 1 (2,3,4) Flow (72 hrs).
TS 3.3.2.L, PC456 B, P11 (1 hr).
TS 3.4.11.B1, B2, & B3 PC456E, to close & remove power from associated block valve (1 hr) and restore to operable (72 hrs).
- 4. Crew responds to AR PK1421, MAIN TRANSF. A nuclear operator is dispatched to investigate local alarms and reports back that NO cooling fans or oil pumps are running on the Main Bank C Transformer.
Shift Foreman enters OP AP25, Rapid Load Reduction or Shutdown and directs a 50 MW/min power reduction while Maintenance and field Operators attempt to restore transformer cooling.
- 5. A large earthquake (0.31 g) occurs during the ramp, but the reactor fails to trip automatically. The crew performs the immediate actions of EOP E0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection and successfully trips the reactor by opening the breakers for 480 V buses 13D and 13E to deenergize the control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) allowing control rods to fully drop into the core (S5CT1) Trip the Reactor by manually deenergizing 480V Buses 13D and 13E.
- 6. A SBLOCA occurs as a result of the earthquake, but both trains of Phase A fail to actuate. The crew performs manual alignment of Phase A containment isolation valves per Appendix E, ESF Auto Actions, Secondary and Auxiliaries Status (S5CT2) Manually close containment isolation valves such that at least one valve is closed on each Phase A containment penetration.
- 7. Startup power is lost shortly after Safety Injection initiates and a combination of electrical and mechanical failures result in the loss of both ECCS charging pumps and safety injection pumps, with CCP 12 and SIP 12 capable of being started manually. Secondary heat removal is affected as well. The turbine driven AFW pump trips on overspeed and AFW pump 13 has no power due to a loss of 4kV bus F. The crew performs the critical task of starting the available ECCS pumps (S5CT3) Start CCP 12 and SIP 12 so as to avoid a severe (Magenta) challenge to the Core Cooling critical status function.
