17-1 NRC 1 Page 2 of 24 SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is at 100% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon, BOL. Online risk is green. Instrument Maintenance is currently testing 1A SG NR level channel 1LT-517. Tech Spec 3.3.1 Conditions A and E and 3.3.2 Conditions A and D have been entered. After turnover is completed, perform 1BwOS EH-M1 UNIT ONE PUMP OPERABILITY SURVEILLANCE.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the BOP and ATC will perform 1BwOS EH-M1 UNIT ONE PUMP OPERABILITY SURVEILLANCE.
After completing 1BwOS EH-M1, PZR pressure channel, 1PT-457, fails low. The Unit Supervisor will enter Tech Specs 3.3.1 Conditions A, E and K and 3.3.2 Conditions A and D. The US will enter 1BwOA INST-2 OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL.
After making the Tech Spec declaration, the 1B EH pump will trip and the 1A EH pump will not auto-start because the relay failed after surveillance testing. The BOP will respond to the trip alarm and manually start the 1A EH pump to restore EH pressure before the main turbine trips on low EH pressure.
Once the 1B EH pump trip has been addressed, the Boric Acid flow controller, 1FK-110, will fail and a spurious automatic make-up will start due to a failure in the Ovation logic and relaying. This will require the ATC to stop the automatic make-up by placing the make-up control system to stop.
After stopping the automatic make-up, rod B-8 will drop to the bottom of the core. Rods will initially step out to respond to the transient. The operator will receive numerous alarms related to the dropped rod and place rod control in manual. The US will enter 1BwOA ROD-3 DROPPED OR MISALIGNED ROD and enter Tech Spec 3.1.4 Condition B. The dropped rod will require reactor power to be reduced to less than 70% power to recover the rod.
After the ramp down to recover the dropped rod has commenced or while preparing to ramp, 1A SG NR level channel, 1LT-519, fails high. Ovation will detect the second SG NR level channel failure causing the system to cause an OVATION ALTERNATE ACTION and swap the 1A FRV controller to manual. The crew will have to manually adjust the 1A FRV controller to restore the 1A SG level and stabilize the plant per 1BwOA INST-2 OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL. The US will enter Tech Spec 3.0.3, 3.3.1 Conditions A and E and 3.3.2 Conditions A and D.
After the 1A SG level channel failure has been addressed, rod H-8 will drop forcing the ATC to take action to attempt to manually trip the reactor from both panels. When a reactor trip signal is generated, the reactor will not trip. The resulting transient will cause a Pressurizer safety valve to stick open. The crew will take actions per 1BwFR-S.1 RESPONSE TO NUCLEAR GENERATION/ATWS. Automatic rod control speed will fail to 8 steps per minute, and the ATC will manually insert the control rods and emergency borate to add negative reactivity. After the reactor is locally tripped, the crew will transition to 1BwEP-0 REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION during which the crew will identify the stuck open Pressurizer safety valve.
The crew will isolate the RCP seal leakoff flow (manually close 1CV8100) due 1CV8112 sticking open and the failure of the K607 relay preventing auto closure of 1CV8100. This will lead the crew to 1BwEP-1 LOSS OF PRIMARY OR SECONDARY COOLANT due to the stuck open PZR safety valve.
Completion criteria is exiting 1BwEP-1.
Critical Tasks
- 1. Insert negative reactivity into the core by initiating RCCA insertion at greater than or equal to 48 steps per minute or establishing emergency boration flow greater than 30 gpm prior to completion of step 4 of 1BwFR-S.1. (Westinghouse - CT-52) (K/A number - EPE029EA1.14 importance - 4.2/3.9)
- 2. Close containment isolation Phase A valve (1CV8100) before exiting 1BwEP-0.

17-1 NRC 2 Page 2 of 23 SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is operating at 90% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon. 1PT-455 has been OOS for calibration for the past 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. LCO 3.3.1 Conditions A, E and K, 3.3.2 Conditions A and D and 3.3.4 Condition A have been entered. Expect 1PT-455 back in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. Following completion of turnover, restore Unit 1 to full power at 2 MW/min. EOs have been briefed and are standing by for any local operations required.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the US and ATC will commence a ramp to 100% power per the pre-job brief and ReMA. The BOP will program the turbine to ramp up to restore full power operation. The ATC will dilute the RCS to support the load ramp.
After a sufficient ramp is completed for the evaluation, the 1PK-131 controller setpoint will fail high causing a letdown pressure high alarm and high letdown pressure. The ATC will take manual control of 1PK-131 per hard card 1BwPR 1-9-LD LETDOWN MALFUNCTION PROMPT RESPONSE to restore normal letdown parameters.
After the 1PK-131 failure has been addressed, 1A GS condenser exhauster fan trips and the BOP will start the 1B GS condenser exhauster fan per BwAR 1-18-A8/BwOP GS-7 to prevent water intrusion into the main generator oil system.
After the 1A GS exhaust fan failure has been addressed, a degraded bus voltage condition will occur.
Bus 141 and 142 voltage will drop to ~3900 volts and will bring in annunciator 1-21/22-C7. This requires the operator to manually open the SAT feed breakers 1412 & 1422. Per BwAR 1-21/22-C7 with voltage below 3990 volts, the operator is required to open the SAT feed breakers to the ESF busses, if no operator action occurs, the bus voltage will remain at 3900 volts for 310 seconds and then the SAT feed breakers will automatically open. When the 4 KV ESF busses are de-energized, the 1A DG will energize bus 141. The 1B DG will start, but bus 142 will be faulted. The US will enter Tech Spec 3.8.1 Condition A and D and 3.8.9 Condition A.
After the degraded bus voltage and associated Tech Specs have been addressed, PZR PORV 1RY455A will fail open. The ATC will attempt to manually close the PZR PORV per hard card 1BwPR 1 RY PZR CONTROL MALFUNCTION PROMPT RESPONSE and 1RY455A will not close. This will require the block valve, 1RY8000A, to be manually closed. The US will enter Tech Spec 3.4.11 Condition B.
After the PZR PORV failure and Tech Specs have been addressed, a trip of the main turbine will occur.
The reactor does not automatically trip and the manual reactor trip switch at 1PM05J is disabled. The crew will trip the reactor from 1PM06J and complete immediate actions of 1BwEP-0 REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION. When the reactor trips, one control bank rod and three shutdown bank rods will not fully insert. The crew will transition to 1BwEP ES-0.1 REACTOR TRIP RESPONSE and initiate emergency boration for the 4 stuck rods.
Once the crew has initiated emergency boration, a loss of all offsite power will occur and the 1A DG will trip resulting in a loss of all AC power to Unit 1. The crew will transition to 1BwCA-0.0 LOSS OF ALL AC POWER. The crew must restore power to Unit 1 within 10 minutes. After power is restored to bus 141 and bus 141 loads are energized, a transition will be made to either 1BwCA-0.1 LOSS OF ALL AC POWER RECOVERY WITHOUT SI REQUIRED or 1BwCA-0.2 LOSS OF ALL AC POWER RECOVERY WITH SI REQUIRED.
Completion criteria: The scenario ends following transition to a 1BwCA-0.0 recovery procedure (1BwCA-0.1).
Critical Tasks
- 1. Perform a manual reactor trip at 1PM06J before transitioning out of 1BwEP-0.

17-1 NRC 3 Page 2 of 22 SCENARIO OVERVIEW Unit 1 is at 90% power, steady state, equilibrium xenon, BOL. Online risk is green. Following completion of turnover, the crew will perform a 1B SG PORV PMT using 1BwOSR 3.7.4.1 MAIN STEAM SYSTEM ISOLATION 1MS018A/B/C/D VALVE TRAVEL AND INDICATION 18 MONTH SURVEILLANCE. EOs are briefed and standing by at the 1B SG PORV, 1MS019B is closed.
After completing shift turnover and relief, the BOP performs a 1B SG PORV PMT using 1BwOSR 3.7.4.1. The 1B SG PORV, 1MS018B, will fail the test due to sticking open at 15% when the valve is attempted to be stroked closed. The Unit Supervisor will enter Tech Spec 3.7.4 Condition A and Tech Spec 3.6.3 Condition C. 1MS019B will remain closed to comply with Tech Spec 3.6.3 Condition C. 1MS018B will remain unavailable for the remainder of the scenario.
After the 1MS018B failure has been addressed, 1CV112A will fail to the HUT position requiring the ATC to place the control switch for 1CV112A to the VCT position. If VCT level lowers to the automatic make-up set point before action is taken, the automatic make-up will not occur and manual make-up will be required to maintain VCT level at desired level.
After the 1CV112A failure has been addressed, the 0A PW pump will trip. The BOP will respond and start the 0B PW pump per BwAR 0-38-A5. The 0B PW pump will be required for stabilizing the plant (RCS dilution) after the runback.
After the 0A PW pump failure is addressed, RWST level channel, 1LT-932, will fail low. The US will enter 1BwOA INST-2 OPERATION WITH A FAILED INSTRUMENT CHANNEL. The US will enter Tech Spec 3.3.2 Conditions A and K.
After addressing the Tech Spec for the RWST level channel, the 1C HD pump will trip. The standby 1B HD pump will not start and a HD runback will be initiated by the BOP. The ATC will add negative reactivity per the operator aid for a HD runback. The US will enter 1BwOA SEC-1 SECONDARY PUMP TRIP.
After a sufficient change in power is completed for the evaluation, 1PK-455A, Master Pressurizer Pressure Controller, setpoint will fail causing a high output demand. Both pressurizer spray valves, 1RY455B and C, will open and pressurizer pressure will drop. The ATC will take manual action to control 1PK-455A or both PZR spray valve controllers per hard card 1BwPR 1-12-RY and lower demand to close the pressurizer spray valves and energize the PZR heaters. Tech Spec 3.4.1 Condition A will apply if pressurizer pressure drops below 2209 psig.
After the 1PK-455A failure is addressed, the 1B MSIV fails closed causing three SG safety valves on the 1B SG to stick open resulting in a faulted SG. SG pressure will drop and a manual reactor trip will be required. The crew will enter 1BwEP-0 REACTOR TRIP OR SAFETY INJECTION. When safety injection is actuated, the 1A CV pump will trip. The 1B CV pump must be manually started to establish high head ECCS flow. After determining the 1B SG secondary pressure boundary is not intact, the crew will transition to 1BwEP-2 FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION. The crew will complete isolation of 1B SG and transition to 1BwEP-1.1 SI TERMINATION based on meeting the criteria for reducing ECCS flow.
Completion criteria is termination of ECCS injection in 1BwEP ES-1.1.
Critical Tasks
- 1. Manually start the 1B CV pump prior to completion of step 6 of 1BwEP-0.
(Westinghouse - CT-6) (K/A number - 013000A4.01 importance 4.5/4.8)
- 2. Isolate 1B Steam Generator prior to completing step 4 of 1BwEP-2.
