Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Facility: __Palisades Nuclear Plant Scenario No.: NRC-1 Op-Test No.: NRC-2020 Examiners: _________________________
Operators:
Initial Conditions: The plant is at 100% power, middle of core life. P-66B, High Pressure Safety Injection Pump, is removed from service for motor replacement. The CVCS is in single letdown and charging. The Main Feedwater Pump Combined Speed Controller is in manual for I&C testing of the controller.
Turnover: Shift orders are to return the Main Feedwater Pump Combined Speed Controller to the Cascade Mode per SOP-12.
Critical Tasks:
- 2. Trip 2 Leave 2 PCP strategy - Trip 2 PCPs in less than 3 minutes after reaching 1300 psia in the PCS.
- 3. Remove all PCPs from operation when conditions do not support their operation. - Trip ALL PCPs within 10 minutes of a CIS or outside operating curve.
- 4. Initiate a rapid power reduction prior to Moisture Separator Drain Tank level lowering below 30% to prevent the loss of Heater Drain Pumps. (1)

Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 NRC Scenario 3 Summary The plant is at 60% power and escalating. MFP P-1B was just started.
Setup:
The BOP will alternate CCW pumps as a normal evolution to place P-52B in service.
The Crew will continue the power escalation at 12%/hr.
After the reactivity change, a loss of Preferred Bus EY-10 occurs due to a tripped DC input breaker. Operable channels will be selected for the heater controls by the ATC. The BOP will bypass reactor trip channels, and place EY-10 on the bypass regulator. The BOP will coordinate local closure of isolation valve for MFP P-1A recirc valve. The SRO will investigate several Tech Specs.
A trip of a CCW pump with the failure of the standby auto start feature will require the ATC to manually start a CCW pump. The SRO will apply Tech specs.
A Main Steam Flow Transmitter failure affects Main Feed Flow requiring manual control and adjustments by the BOP. NO Tech Specs, NO ORM.
A PLCS level channel failure requires manual action by the ATC and BOP. The ATC will attempt to take manual control (unsuccessfully) and then switch to non-failed channel of Pressurizer Level Control. NO Tech Specs, NO ORM. (If PZR level doesnt exceed LCO 3.4.9 limits).
A Governor valve fails closed resulting in the need for a manual reactor trip, causing a pressure spike in the Main Steam system that results in a weld failure where a Main Steam Safety Valve connects. This 0.75 % failure high energy line break is ramped in over a one minute period and causes PCS Temperature and pressure to lower and power to rise prior to the trip.
The Turbine fails to auto trip and requires the BOP to manually trip the turbine from the Main Turbine Control Panel in the Control Room. When the rest of the turbine valves close, the additional spike in steam pressure causes the weld failure to worsen. The steam leaks grows to 6% failure over 5 minutes.
The crew should close the MSIVs based on lowering SG pressure and PCS cooldown. The auto closure of the MSIVs at 500 psig is failed.
On the SIAS the second CCW Pump will not auto start in auto requiring the BOP to start in post SIAS checklist. The crew responds per EOP-6.0 ESDE.
The scenario terminates when the crew has controlled the cooldown.

Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 NRC Scenario 4 Summary The plant is at 25% power and escalating. Chemistry hold has just been removed.
Setup: Plant at 25% IC with Main Generator Output Breaker 25F7 breaker in the switchyard is open.
The BOP will close Main Generator Output Breaker, 25F7 as a normal evolution.
The Crew will continue the power escalation at 12%/hr to 49%.
After the reactivity change, RIA-1810, W Safeguards Room Radiation Monitor fails low. The ATC will place the associated dampers for this room to close to isolate the non-monitored radiation area. SRO will investigate TS requirements.
A trip of Dilution Water Pump, P-40A occurs requiring the BOP to manipulate flow to balance Cooling Tower levels. Dilution Pump is not TS however, the breaker that has tripped provides backup power to Pressurizer Heaters and is TS related. SRO TS review.
A failure of VCT level switch automatically re-configures the charging system to take suction from the SIRW Tank by closing the normal VCT valves and opening the SIRW Tank valve. ATC must diagnose this event and then manually remove charging and letdown from service.
Primary Coolant Pump, P-50D experiences a continual rising of vibrations until a reactor trip is required. The ATC must monitor conditions and manually trip the reactor. Once reactivity safety functions are met, P-50D must be removed from service.
On the reactor trip, a vapor space (Relief Valve) fails full open on a 5-minute ramp. Ten minutes later a loss of all offsite power occurs. The BOP must manually start EDG 1-1 to energize Bus 1C and Close the EDG 1-2 output breaker to energize Bus 1D. Two Containment Air Cooler Fans trip and fail to restart after D/G Loading. Manual starting is required from the BOP. The ATC must start charging pumps and Instrument Air Compressors to combat the VS LOCA.
The scenario terminates after the above actions are taken and the crew has initiated a PCS Cooldown.
