Title	Unplanned Safety System Actuation and Contamination Event
Event Description	On 12/06/2007 at 1550 [CST] the C-337 unit 5 cell 3 PGLD (process gas leak detection) head in the C-337 unit 5 cell 3 housing actuated and would not clear. Response to the alarm by operators revealed a haze above the cell indicating a UF6 release inside the cell housing. While the operators were responding to the unit 5 Cell 3 alarm, two other PGLD heads actuated in C-337 unit 5 cell 5. To stop the release both cells 3 and 5 were taken below atmospheric pressure. Investigation indicated that a UF6 release had occurred. The amount of material released has not been determined. The actuated PGLD heads are Q safety system components. At the time of the incident the cell was operating in a mode which required the system to be operational. This is being reported based on SAR 6.9 Table 1, J2 (unplanned actuation of a Q safety system) and 10 CFR 76.120 (c) (1) (i) (unplanned contamination event). The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified of this event. There was no release to the environment and no personnel contaminations reported.
