On April 7, 2025, at 2000 EDT, it was discovered that all pumps in the auxiliary feedwater system were inoperable due to the loss of control power to the `B' train emergency feedwater (EFW) flow control valve which supplies the `D' Steam Generator. The redundant `A' Train EFW flow control valve for the `D' Steam Generator remains functional, as well as the capability of the auxiliary feedwater system to supply all steam generators.

The `A' and `B' EFW flow control valves are arranged in a series configuration for each steam generator. Failure of any of the 8 EFW flow control valves to meet its surveillance requirements will render all EFW pumps inoperable per technical specifications (TS).

* * * RETRACTION ON 04/09/2025 AT 1049 EDT FROM BOB MURRELL TO JORDAN WINGATE * * *
The following information was provided by the licensee via phone and email:
The purpose of this notification is to retract a previous report made on 04/08/2025 at 1344 EDT, EN 57652. Notification of the event to the Nuclear Regulatory Commision was initially made because of declaring all pumps in the emergency feedwater system inoperable in response to discovering the loss of control power to the `B' train emergency feedwater (EFW) flow control valve, which supplies the `D' steam generator. The redundant `A' train EFW flow control valve for the `D' steam generator remained functional, as well as the capability of the EFW system to supply all steam generators.
Subsequent to the initial report, NextEra has concluded that the loss of control power to the `B' train EFW flow control valve did not prevent EFW from fulfilling its safety function. Specifically, the `A' train of EFW was fully capable of fulfilling all EFW safety functions.
Therefore, this event is not considered a safety system functional failure and is not reportable pursuant 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(B).
The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.
