| title = Reactor Scram and Eccs Injection Following Opening of Turbine Bypass Valves
| event text = At approximately 04:55 on December 22, 2004, Unit 2 experienced a malfunction of Electro-Hydraulic Control (EHC) system resulting in opening of main turbine bypass valves and resultant loss of reactor pressure.  The reactor automatically shutdown on RPS with the completion of a Group I isolation signal (Reactor pressure 850 prig and Reactor mode switch in RUN) resulting in a closure of the Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIVs).  Reactor level lowered to (ECCS) initiation set-point of -48 inches and High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) system and Reactor Core Isolation Coolant (RCIC) system automatically initiated and restored level.  When reactor level lowered below the 1 inch set-point, Group II and III  Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) signals initiated.  All Unit parameters are stable and RPS/PCIS/ECCS systems performed as designed.  MSIVs remain closed.  Reactor level and pressure are stable with HPCI and RCIC systems in control.  Group I, II, and III isolations have been reset.  The EHC malfunction is presently under investigation by Station Management.

All systems functioned as required.  The reactor water level is now at 23 inches and stable and the licensee is conducting a slow depressurization to Mode 4 to investigate the EHC system malfunction.  The level transients experience during the scram would be expected with the closure of the MSIVs.
