| event text = Crystal River Unit 3 was at 37 percent power starting up from a refueling outage.  During troubleshooting of control problems with the B Main Feedwater Pump, a feedwater transient occurred which underfed the steam generators.  This resulted in a reactor trip on high Reactor Coolant System pressure and Emergency Feedwater Actuation on low steam generator levels.  This event is reportable as a 4-Hour Non-Emergency Notification per 10CFR50.72 (b)(2)(iv)(B) for Reactor Protection System Actuation and as an 8-Hour Non Emergency Notification per 10CFR50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(A) for Emergency Feedwater Actuation.

The licensee reported that all control rods fully inserted on the trip and that steam generator safety valves lifted and reseated as expected.  The primary system is currently at 2155 psi, 549 degrees F with steam generator feedwater being supplied by auxiliary feedwater.  The main condenser is available and is being used for primary system heat removal via steam dump.  The station electrical grid is stable and in normal configuration; the emergency diesel generators are operable and in standby.
