The plant was stable at 85 percent power wThe plant was stable at 85 percent power when off-gas flow started lowering. The operating crew entered the loss of vacuum off-normal procedure and commenced an emergency power reduction to attempt to slow/halt the loss of vacuum while attempting various prescribed actions in the off-normal procedure. When vacuum reached 24 in. Hg, a rapid plant shutdown was performed as prescribed in the off-normal procedure. Power was at 46 percent when a rapid plant shutdown was commenced with the mode switch placed in shutdown at 1942 CDT. All control rods fully inserted on the scram, no emergency core cooling system injected or was required, no safety/relief valve(s) lifted and all systems responded as expected on the scram. The plant will remain in mode 3 with normal makeup from the feedwater system and pressure control on the turbine bypass valves with the main condenser available as a heat sink. All vital and non-vital electrical busses are powered from reserve off-site sources and no emergency diesel generators started on the scram. The cause of the loss of vacuum is under investigation.</br>The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.ensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.  +
