At 2342 (EDT), June 30, 2016, the Control At 2342 (EDT), June 30, 2016, the Control Room received panel alarms associated with Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) Channel 2. Subsequent investigation revealed the alarms were due to a loss of supplied power caused, in part, by a level permissive in the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) to be inoperable. With SFAS Channel 1 BWST level transmitter previously declared inoperable for maintenance, the on-shift operating crew did not correctly identify that technical specification (TS) 3.3.5, Condition B applied which is a 6-hour shutdown required action. At 0245, following a duty team call when the condition was re-assessed, the crew entered the proper additional Condition B and correctly identified they were approximately 3 hours into a 6-hour shutdown specification. At 0330 the condition was inappropriately exited on the premise that an operable but degraded situation could be justified.
