This report is being retracted. The Control Room Envelope (CRE) provides a safety function which limits radiological dose to occupants to no more than 5 rem for 30 days post-accident. The dose limitation assumes the occupants are stationed within the CRE 24 hours a day for the entire 30-day period. The CRE also functions to protect occupants from potential hazards such as smoke or toxic chemicals. | |||
The CRE is declared inoperable when a potential breach is identified, regardless of the ability to seal the breach. With respect to the event of October 20, 2019, the water level in a loop seal could not be maintained at the desired level. Subsequent evaluation determined that sufficient water was maintained in the loop seal to prevent a breach of the CRE. | |||
The subject reporting criterion is based on the assumption that safety-related systems, structures, and components (SSCs) may no longer be capable of mitigating the consequences of an accident. In accordance with NUREG 1022, 'Event Report Guidelines 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73,' a report may be retracted based on a revised operability determination. The CRE remained operable; therefore, this report may be retracted. | |||
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. | |||
