v t e ENS Event
19:14 Feb 17, 2017
Title	Secondary Containment Inoperable
Event Description	On 2/17/2017 at 1414 EST, secondary containment was declared inoperable due to the discovery of an 18-inch open pipe penetration in the secondary containment boundary. During walkdown activities, it was discovered that a blind flange installed to support removal of a Unit 2 secondary containment isolation valve had been installed on the wrong flange to provide isolation for secondary containment. At 1503 EST, the blind flange was moved to the correct side of the flange and secondary containment was declared operable. This event is reportable per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(C) as a condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of a system needed to control the release of radioactive material. In conjunction with operation of the Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) subsystems, secondary containment is designed to reduce the activity level of the fission products prior to release to the environment and to isolate and contain fission products that are released during certain operations. Therefore, the lack of a qualified isolation device to limit the release of radioactive material constitutes a loss of safety function due to a loss of secondary containment integrity. CR 10332592 The NRC Resident has been notified.
