| event text = At 2345 CDT at River Bend Station (RBS) Unit 1, a manual Reactor scram was inserted in anticipation of receiving an automatic Reactor Water Level 3 (9.7") scram due to the isolation of the 'B' Heater String with the 'A' Heater String already isolated.  The 'B' heater string isolation caused loss of suction and subsequent trip of the running Feed Water Pumps 'A' and 'C'.  All control rods fully inserted with no issues.  Subsequently Reactor level was controlled by the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) system. Feed Water Pump 'C' was restored 4 minutes after the initial trip and the RCIC system secured. Currently RBS-1 is stable and is being cooled down using Turbine Bypass Valves.

This amended event notification is being made to provide additional information that was not included in the original notification made on 6/1/19 at 0315 EDT.  This event was reportable under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) which was not annotated or described in the original report. 
Forty-two minutes after the Feed Water Pump 'C' was started, the pump tripped causing a Reactor Water Level 3 (9.7") RPS actuation.  Feed Water was restored five minutes later using the Feed Water Pump 'A'.
The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.
Notified the R4DO (Warnick).
