reactor scram when the running Reactor Feedwater (RFW-P-1A) pump tripped.  Reactor power was approximately 18% at the time of RFW-P-1A trip. The cause of the RFW-P-1A trip was a high RFW Turbine Drain Tank (MD-TK-1) level; the cause of the MD-TK-1 high level is under investigation.  The Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) was used [manually started] to maintain reactor vessel water level until reactor pressure was reduced to within the capacity of the condensate booster pumps; the RCIC system has been returned to a standby lineup.  The reactor is in mode 3 with both reactor recirculation pumps running at minimum speed (15 Hertz).  Decay heat is being rejected to the main condenser via auxiliary steam loads.
