| title = Degraded Condition Due to Discovery of Pressure Boundary Leakage
| event text = On March 30, 2016, at 1715 EDT, with the Unit shutdown and in Mode 6 for refueling, evidence of leakage was identified on a 3/4-inch flexible braided piping connection on Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) 1-1, and this issue was determined to be reactor coolant system pressure boundary leakage. This flexible piping is for RCP 1-1 first stage seal cavity vent line, and is categorized as ASME Section III Class 2 piping. The leakage was identified due to the discovery of a small amount of boric acid (approximately 1/2 teaspoon) on the welded end connection of the flexible piping. No active leakage was identified at the time of discovery with the Reactor Coolant System depressurized and approximately 110 degrees F.

Technical Specification (TS) Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.4.13, 'RCS Operational Leakage,' does not apply in the current plant condition (Mode 6). The cause and resolution of the leakage are under evaluation. This event is reportable within 8 hours per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(A). The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.
