| Title | Reactor Shutdown Due to Control Rod Drive Failure |
| Event Description | On July 26, 2021 at 1731 CDT, while the reactor was subcritical during a reactor startup, the University of Missouri-Columbia Research Reactor (MURR) was manually shut down due to the failure of the control rod drive mechanism for shim control blade B. MURR was not in compliance with one (1) Limiting Conditions of Operations (LCO). TS 3.2.a states, 'All control blades, including the regulating blade, shall be operable during reactor operation.'
A spare control rod drive mechanism was installed for control blade B, post-installation operability testing was conducted satisfactorily, and permission from the Reactor Facility Director was obtained prior to the reactor returning to operation later on July 26, 2021. Currently, MURR is operating at 10 MW [full power]. A detailed event report will follow within 14 days. |
