On8-2-91,a"smallbreaklossofcoolantaccident" runonthePlantsimulator identified aflowpathwhichmaybeestablished byplantconditions andtheEmergency Operating Procedures (EOPs)withthepotential todivertwaterawayfromtheemergency corecoolingsystemandthecontainment building.

TheflowpathwasfromtheCentrifugal ChargingPumpdischarge throughanemergency leakoffvalve,throughthesealreturnlinesafetyvalvetothevolumecontroltank(VCT),andthroughtheVCTsafetyvalvetothechemicalandvolumecontrolsystemholduptanks.Areviewofthefindingconcluded thattheamountofwaterwhichcouldbediverteddidnotsignificantly affectcorecooling.However,thedivertedwaterwouldbedischarged fromthecontainment building.
