ENS 5155419 November 2015 19:10:00A review of operations log data revealed the Unit 2 Spent Fuel Pool temperature was allowed to drift approximately two degrees below the accepted analyzed temperature of 68 degrees F. The Extent of Condition is under review and the number of instances has not been fully determined. It is possible Unit 3 may have also been affected. As described in the San Onofre UFSAR, Section 9.1.2.3 'Design Basis for Fuel Storage and Handling,' one of the conditions assumed in meeting the design basis, is as follows: the most adverse delta-k (reactivity change) was analyzed for a pool temperature range from 68 degree F to 160 degree F. Although the temperature decrease is considered unlikely to have a significant impact on the results of the analysis, it is being reported under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2) as an unanalyzed condition because there is at this time no analysis of record for the reduced temperature condition. There were and continue to be no observed, abnormal effects from the temperature drop below 68 degrees F, and no impact on the health or safety of plant personnel of the public. Re-analysis is in progress and is expected to demonstrate that the criticality acceptance criteria of 10CFR50.68 were met at all times. The licensee notified the Regional NRC Contact.
ENS 4650321 December 2010 23:52:00Notified by the Security Shift Commander at 1932 (PST) that access to the primary EOF is not possible due to flooding. San Onofre will activate the alternate EOF if an event is declared. There are no other affected systems or loss to emergency response capabilities due to this flooding. Access to the site has not been impacted due to the flooding. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. See similar report #46499.
