| event text = Unit 1 experienced an automatic reactor trip at approximately 14:28 CDT as a result of a turbine trip. Initial indications are that the trip was associated with a lightning strike on site. Plant is stable in Mode 3. All control rods fully inserted and there are no offsite radiation releases. Anomalies noted are 'C' Main Phase Transformer Sudden Pressure Trip Alarm, Main Generator Output Breakers failed to automatically open and were subsequently manually opened, and 'B' Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) main feedwater block valve failed to indicate closed which resulted in a low level condition on 'B' OTSG and subsequent automatic actuation of Emergency Feedwater (EFW). EFW is controlling both OTSG levels at low level limits. | | event text = Unit 1 experienced an automatic reactor trip at approximately 14:28 CDT as a result of a turbine trip.

A normal fast transfer to the Startup Transformer occurred following the trip and offsite power remains available. All EDGs are in standby, if needed. There is no safety related equipment out of service at this time. Decay heat is currently being removed via the steam dumps to the main condenser. The licensee will conduct an investigation into the equipment failures and determine if any plant equipment was damaged by the lightning strike. | A normal fast transfer to the Startup Transformer occurred following the trip and offsite power remains available.
