Description
- 1.
Drywell Vacuum Breaker Test Following shift turnover, the SRO will direct the BOP Operator to perform CPS 9064.01 Drywell Post-LOCA Vacuum Breaker Verification Test.
- 2.
Spurious HPCS auto initiation High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS) initiates with no operator action. The following annunciators are received: 5062-3C RUNNING DIESEL GEN 1C, 5062-4E HPCS PUMP AUTO START, 5064-1B AUTO START SSW PUMP 1C and 5064-4B AUTO START DG FUEL OIL XFER PUMP 1C. IAW CPS 3309.01 High Pressure Core Spray (HPCS), the crew will verify by at least two independent indications that misoperation in automatic is confirmed or adequate core cooling is assured. Once confirmed, the SRO will direct the BOP operator to secure HPCS. Technical Specification LCO 3.5.1 Actions B.1 and B.2 will be evaluated requiring verification by administrative means that the RCIC system is operable when required AND the HPCS system is restored to operable status within 14 days.
- 3.
- 1 SA Compressor trips with failure of Standby Compressor to Auto Start Annunciator 5041-1A AUTO TRIP PUMP/MOTOR is received due to a trip of the #1 Service Air Compressor (1SA01C). The SRO will enter CPS 4004.01 Instrument Air Loss and direct the BOP to start the standby Service Air Compressor (0SA01C). If the crew fails to manually start 0SA01C, the air compressor will fail to automatically start to restore air pressure.
- 4.
RR Pump B high vibration Annunciator 5003-2K RECIRC PMP B MTR VIBR HI is received. BOP will determine B RR Pump vibration levels are 20 mil P-P steady on both probes. ATC will perform RR Loop B Emergency Shutdown. SRO will enter CPS 4008.01 Abnormal Reactor Coolant Flow, CPS 4002.01 Abnormal RPV Level/Loss of Feedwater At Power, CPS 4100.02 Core Stability Control and ITS LCO 3.4.1 B.1 and C.1.
- 5.
Reduce power to < 65% with Control Rods The SRO will direct ATC to lower reactor power to 58% RTP IAW TS LCO 3.4.1 B.1 based on having one recirculation loop in operation.
- 6.
RR Pump A trip Annunciator 5003-1F RECIRC PMP A MTR BRKR Trip is received due to a trip of the A RR Pump. With no RR Pumps operating with the mode switch in RUN, the ATC will place the mode switch in shutdown (IAW CPS 4008.01 Abnormal Reactor Coolant Flow).
- 7.
Low Power ATWS / Unisolable MSL D Leak / Multiple area temps > Max Safe / EOP-3 Blowdown When the mode switch is taken to shutdown, two control rods will fail to insert requiring entry into EOP-1 RPV Control and then transitioning into EOP-1A ATWS RPV Control. Annunciator 5065-6F Sec. Cnmt. Area High Temp will be received. The BOP/ATC will initially monitor secondary containment temperatures and will report multiple rising temperatures on recorders 1TR-CM326/327. When temperatures exceed max normal values, EOP-8 Secondary Containment Control and CPS 4001.01 Reactor Coolant Leakage will be entered. Neither the automatic Group 1 isolation or manual attempts to isolate the steam leak will be successful. Once two areas have exceeded max safe values, the SRO will direct a blowdown per EOP-3 Emergency RPV Depressurization.
- 8.
FRV 1FW004 Fails Shut With the feedwater regulating valve (FRV) 1FW004 failed shut, any automatic RPV injection via the MDRFP or CD/CB will be unavailable. Per EOP-1A ATWS RPV Control and EOP-3 Emergency RPV Depressurization, the SRO will direct RPV injection via HPCS and LPCI/LPCS to be terminated and prevented. The BOP will initiate ADS and verify that 7 ADS valves open. The operating crew will monitor RPV pressure and recommence RPV injection with CD/CB via 1FW003A/B IAW CPS 4411.03 Injection/Flooding Sources when RPV pressure reaches 150 psig. The scenario is terminated when reactor power is below 5% and reactor water level is being maintained between -162 and Level 8 (+52).

- 1.
[CT-1] Inserts control rods to lower power below 65% to exit MELLLA within 10 minutes of tripping B Reactor Recirculation Pump.
a)
This critical task was derived from NUREG 1021 R11 Appendix D Simulator Testing Guidelines, section D.1 Identification of Scenario-Specific Critical Tasks which states that each critical task must have safety significance. A task is essential to safety if its improper performance or omission by an operator will result in direct adverse consequences or significant degradation in the mitigative capability of the plant. In this scenario, CPS 4100.02, Core Stability Control, directs restoration of power within the Power/Flow Operating Map limits with control rods. In August 2020, River Bend Unit 1 (a similar BWR-6 reactor) experienced core flux oscillations 10 minutes after tripping a Reactor Recirculation Pump and was forced to perform a manual scram to mitigate the thermal hydraulic instability. In this scenario, the OPRM scram designed to safely shut the reactor down will be disabled, making prevention of these thermal hydraulic instabilities by lowering power with rods an essential safety action preventing incorrect reactivity control.
- 2.
[CT-2] Enters and executes EOP-3 Emergency RPV Depressurization within 15 minutes of 2 or more of the following areas exceeding max safe temperature values of EOP-8 Table T Area Temperature Limits:
Point 14 1TR-CM326 (Upper Recorder) - Aux Bldg Below MS Tunnel > 200°F Point 18 1TR-CM326 (Upper Recorder) - Aux Bldg Steam Tunnel > 200°F Point 15 or 16 1TR-CM327 (Lower Recorder) - Aux Bldg MSIV Room A or B > 200°F a) This critical task was derived from the BWR EOP Generic Critical Task listing, TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide and the EOP Technical Bases and applies when secondary containment temperatures exceed max safe values. The time limit of 15 minutes was agreed upon between the NRC Chief Examiner and the facility and is considered adequate for a competent operator to complete the task when blowdown parameters are exceeded. A task is essential to safety if its improper performance or omission by an operator will result in direct adverse consequences or significant degradation in the mitigative capability of the plant. In this instance, the blowdown is required because parameters above the maximum safe operating values in two separate areas is indicative of a wide-spread problem posing a direct and immediate threat to secondary containment, equipment in the secondary containment, and safe operation of the plant. An action that mitigates the event and precludes heat input, radioactivity release, and break flow into the secondary containment is therefore critical.

- 1.
[CT-1] PC-3.1, SCRAM the reactor before suppression pool level lowers to less than 15 1.
a)
This critical task was derived from the BWR EOP Generic Critical Task listing, TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide, and EOP Technical Bases which states that as Suppression Pool level decreases, the Heat Capacity Limit also decreases. Inserting a scram reduces the rate of energy production and thus the heat input to the suppression pool. An action to reduce the heat input to the Suppression Pool is therefore critical.
- 2.
[CT-2] PC-3.3, Enters EOP-3 prior to suppression pool level reaching 151 and performs an emergency depressurization.
a)
This critical task was derived from the BWR EOP Generic Critical Task listing, TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide, and EOP Technical Bases which states that if a loss of coolant accident occurs with level below this value, steam discharged through the horizontal vents may not be completely condensed and containment pressure could exceed structural limits. Since the RPV may not be kept at pressure under these conditions, a blowdown must be performed, irrespective of suppression pool temperature, if suppression pool level cannot be maintained above 15 ft. 1 in. (15.1 ft). An action that mitigates the event and prevents exceeding containment structural limits is therefore critical.

Description
- 1.
Perform CPS 9051.01 HPCS Pump Operability The scenario begins with CPS 9051.01 HPCS Pump & HPCS Water Leg Pump Operability section 8.2 HPCS Pump Operability / WLP Double Check Valve Test in progress. All steps up to 8.2.7 Pump Starting were completed on the previous shift. The BOP operator will be directed to continue the surveillance IAW CPS 9051.01 HPCS Pump &
HPCS Water Leg Pump Operability section 8.2.7 Pump Starting.
- 2.
Failure of HPCS Pump Discharge valve (1E22-F301)
Two (2) minutes after HPCS flowrate reaches 5000 gpm, the HPCS Pump Discharge Valve (1E22-F301) disc will separate from the stem and drift shut. Annunciator 5062-4D HPCS PUMP SUCTION ABNORMAL is received.
When requested, the extra Equipment Operator will report that a loud vibrating noise is coming from the HPCS Pump Discharge Valve. The SRO will direct the BOP operator to secure the HPCS pump and back out of the surveillance.
- 3.
Raise Power with rods to 62%
The crew will raise Reactor power with rods to achieve 62% power IAW CPS 3005.01 Unit Power Changes.
- 4.
Rod drifts outward Annunciator ROD DRIFT (5006-4G) comes in due to rod 04-29 drifting outward. The ATC Operator will take the Immediate Actions and applicable Subsequent Actions as directed by the SRO for an Inadvertent Rod Movement per CPS 4007.02 Inadvertent Rod Movement. Rod 04-29 will drift outward until individually scrammed at the Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU). Technical Specification LCO 3.1.3 Actions C.1 and C.2 will be evaluated requiring full insertion of the inoperable control rod in 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> and disarming the associated CRD in 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. Technical Specification LCO 3.1.6 Actions A.1 will also be evaluated and found not to apply.
- 5.
EHC Temperature Controller Failure Annunciator TROUBLE EHC FLUID (5017-3B) comes in due to low temperature caused by a failure in the auto portion of the EHC FLUID CLG WTR CONTROL controller. The BOP operator will diagnose the problem with the controller, place the controller in MANUAL, stabilize and restore EHC Fluid Temperature.
- 6.
Loss of Control Power to Suppression Pool Dump Valve (1SM001A)
Annunciator 5041-7D NOT AVAILABLE SM SYSTEM DIVISION 1 comes in due to a blown control power fuse deenergizing relay 74-SM1A (1SM001A Bkr Overload relay). The BOP operator will dispatch an Equipment operator to investigate. Technical Specification LCO 3.6.2.4, Action C.1 will be evaluated requiring the restoration of the SPMU subsystem to operable status within 7 days.
- 7.
TDRFP B High Bearing Temperature Annunciator 5002-2G HIGH TEMP RFPT 1B BRG comes in due to a failed bearing in the B RFPT. The crew will secure the B TDRFP IAW CPS 3103.01 Feedwater (FW) section 8.3.6 High Temperature TDRFP Bearings and may start the MDRFP.
- 8.
Inadvertent Group 1 Isolation / Partial ATWS An inadvertent Group 1 Isolation occurs causing the Inboard MSIVs to close. When the ATC places the Reactor Mode Switch in shutdown/attempts manual scram or ARI, some control rods fail to insert. The SRO will enter EOP-1 RPV Control and transition to EOP-1A ATWS RPV Control. The SRO will direct actions to lower level to reduce subcooling based on EOP-1A, Level Band B. The BOP will start SLC and the ATC will insert control rods per EOP-1A. Suppression Pool Temperature will exceed Fig. G Boron Injection Temperature.
- 9.
Trip of MDRFP / RCIC fails to auto start The MDRFP breaker will trip concurrent with placing the mode switch in shutdown. Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) will fail to auto start when lowering RPV level reaches Level 2. When the ATC attempts to restore RPV level IAW EOP-1A Level Band B, the only high pressure source available will be RCIC and the ATC must manually start and inject with RCIC to restore and maintain RPV level.

ILT 19-1 NRC Exam Scenario 4 Rev. 0 ILT 19-1 NRC Exam Scenario 4 Rev 0 Post OSV.docx Page 21 of 22 CT Bases Information
- 1. [CT-1] TCA-10 BOP/ATC starts Standby Liquid Control Pumps to shutdown the reactor within 120 seconds of the time at which the ATWS trip setpoint is reached (RPV pressure of 1127 psig).
a)
This critical task was derived from OP-CL-102-106-1001 Operator Response Time Master List at CPS which states that the SLC Pumps must be started within 120 seconds of the time at which the ATWS trip setpoint is reached (low reactor water level or high reactor pressure). In this scenario, the ATWS high reactor pressure setpoint (1127 psig) is reached when the MSIVs fully close coincident with the failure to scram. The time being assessed is the longer time between 120 seconds following the ATWS trip point or the time at which the suppression pool reaches Boron Injection Initiation Temperature (BIIT). Based on EPU Task Report T0902, no scenario with an ATWS involves reaching BIIT in a time longer than 120 seconds from ATWS trip point, therefore 120 seconds is the longest time to be used. The Boron Injection Temperature is a function of reactor power. If boron injection is initiated before suppression pool temperature reaches the Boron Injection Temperature, RPV blowdown may be precluded at lower power levels and is therefore critical.
- 2. [CT-2] RPV-6.2 BOP Inhibits ADS within 105 seconds of RPV level reaching Level 1 (-145.5 Wide Range).
a)
This critical task was derived from the BWR EOP Generic Critical Task listing, TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide, and the EOP Technical Bases and applies when ATWS conditions exist. During ATWS conditions, RPV water level may be intentionally lowered below the ADS setpoint to reduce reactor power. ADS actuation is prevented for the following reasons:
(1)
ADS actuation can impose a severe thermal transient on the RPV and may complicate efforts to control RPV water level.
(2)
If only RCIC is available for injection, ADS actuation may directly lead to loss of adequate core cooling and subsequent core damage.
(3)
The conditions assumed in the design of the ADS actuation logic (e.g., no operator action for 10 minutes after event initiation) may not exist when the actions specified in ATWS RPV Control are being carried out.
(4)
The operator can draw on much more information than is available to the ADS logic (e.g., equipment out of service for maintenance, operating experience with certain systems, probability of restoration of off-site power, etc.) and can better judge, based on instructions contained in the procedure, when and how to depressurize the RPV.
(5)
Subsequent steps provide explicit and detailed instructions for RPV water level control and identify the specific conditions when a blowdown is required.
(6)
Rapid, uncontrolled injection of relatively cold, unborated water could occur as RPV pressure decreases. If the reactor is not shutdown or if the shutdown margin is small, this could add sufficient positive reactivity to cause a power excursion large enough to damage the core.
b)
An action that mitigates the rapid injection of cold, unborated water when shutdown criteria are not met is therefore critical.
- 3. [CT-3] RPV-6.3 BOP terminates and prevents injection from LPCS and LPCI before RPV level reaches Level 1 (-
145.5 Wide Range) and pressure lowers below 472psig.
a)
This critical task was derived from the BWR EOP Generic Critical Task listing, TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide, and the EOP Technical Bases and applies when ATWS conditions exist. LPCS and LPCI Pumps automatically initiate and will inject when RPV level reaches Level 1 (-145.5). Rapid injection of cold, unborated water when shutdown criteria are not met may cause a large net increase in positive reactivity. The resulting power excursion may be large enough to substantially damage the core. An action that mitigates the rapid injection of cold, unborated water when shutdown criteria are not met is therefore critical.
a)
This critical task was derived from the EOP Technical Bases which states that if the decreasing RPV water level trend cannot be reversed before RPV water level drops to the top of the active fuel, core cooling by submergence can no longer be ensured. An action that precludes operation with inadequate core cooling is therefore critical. Allowing level to go below TAF will challenge core cooling and constitutes measurable failure criteria. In this scenario, the initiating cue is the failure of RCIC to auto-start at Level 2; RCIC must be manually initiated to maintain level above TAF. Performance feedback for this task will be RCIC injecting and maintaining RPV water level.
- 5. [CT-5] If RPV level < TAF and no systems are injecting, initiate ADS per EOP-3 within 17.5 minutes of RPV level reaching -160 (TAF).
a)
This critical task was derived from TQ-JA-CL-155-002 Rev. 3 Clinton Power Station Critical Task Writers Guide and OP-CL-102-106-1001 Operator Response Time Master List at CPS and applies during Medium LOCA associated inventory loss rate events. In this scenario, numerous injection systems fail, challenging the ability to keep the core covered above TAF. The initiating cue is RPV level reaching TAF. A task is essential to safety if its improper performance or omission by an operator will result in direct adverse consequences or significant degradation in the mitigative capability of the plant. In this instance, depressurization of the reactor is required to allow low pressure ECCS systems to restore RPV water level above TAF and is therefore critical.
