The independent control on moderation remained intact, thus no unsafe condition existed. This event is reported pursuant to NRC Bulletin 91-01 within 24 hours. The rod trays were removed from the conveyor, and the geometry control re-established within 4 hours. The ABAM unit has been shutdown pending investigation and implementation of additional corrective actions. | The independent control on moderation remained intact, thus no unsafe condition existed.
