ML24323A173 | | 18 November 2024 | RES Slides - High Burnup Fuel Source Term Accident Analysis Boiling-Water Reactor Follow-On Calculations Source Term Briefing - Sc - November 19, 2024 | | IR 05000333/2024003 | FitzPatrick | 12 November 2024 | Integrated Inspection Report 05000333/2024003 | | ENS 57418 | Grand Gulf | 10 November 2024 09:37:00 | Manual Reactor Scram | The following information was provided by the licensee via phone and email:
On November 10, 2024, at 0337 CST, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS) was operating in mode 1 at 100 percent power when a manual scram was initiated due to degrading main condenser vacuum. The cause of the degrading main condenser vacuum is not known at this time and is being investigated. All control rods fully inserted and there were no complications. Reactor pressure was initially maintained with main turbine bypass valves. Reactor water level was initially maintained with main feedwater and condensate.
At 0457, operators transitioned pressure control to safety relief valves and began using reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) to maintain reactor water level. This was performed using plant procedures due to degrading vacuum. GGNS is currently in mode 3. Reactor level is being maintained with RCIC and pressure is being maintained using the safety relief valves.
The manual reactor protection system (RPS) actuation is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) and the RCIC actuation is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A).
The NRC Senior Resident Inspector was notified.
The following additional information was obtained from the licensee in accordance with Headquarters Operations Officers Report Guidance:
At the time of the notification, main steam isolation valves had shut on low vacuum.
- * * UPDATE ON 11/10/24 AT 1236 CST FROM MELISSA LIMBECK TO KERBY SCALES * * *
The following update was provided by the licensee via phone and email:
This update is being made to report the following occurrences which took place after the scram reported in event number 57418.
On November 10, 2024, at 0545 CST, a group 1 containment isolation signal resulted in the closure of all MSIVs. The signal was due to continued degradation of condenser vacuum post-trip. At 0620, an automatic RPS actuation occurred when reactor water level lowered to level 3. This RPS actuation occurred with all control rods fully inserted. Reactor water level lowered following closure of an open safety relief valve and was recovered to within the established band.
The events are being reported as specified system actuations in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A).
The NRC Senior Resident Inspector has been informed of the update.
