| ENS 56298 | 5 January 2023 15:39:00 | The following information was provided by the licensee via phone and email: At 1242 (EST) on 05 January 2023, with the Unit in Mode 1 at 99 percent power, the reactor automatically tripped on low Reactor Pressure Vessel level while restoring power to Digital Feedwater Control Stations when there was a perturbation to the level controls. The reason for perturbation is unknown at this time. The trip was not complex, with all systems responding normally post trip. Operations responded and stabilized the plant. High pressure core spray was manually initiated in accordance with site procedures. Reactor water level is being maintained via the Feedwater System. Decay heat is being removed by the Main Condenser. Due to the Reactor Protection System actuation while critical, this event is being reported as a four-hour, non-emergency notification per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(A) and 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B). There was no impact on the health and safety of the public or plant personnel. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
