| Title | Loss Of The Seismic Monitoring Computer |
| Event Description | In accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii), this notification reports a loss of Emergency Preparedness assessment capability with the unplanned inoperable condition for the Byron seismic monitor. Specifically, the seismic monitor was declared non-functional at 0345 CST on March 7, 2015 following an unplanned loss of the seismic monitoring central computer. This condition adversely impacted the capability to perform an ALERT EAL (HA4) assessment in accordance with the Radiological Emergency Plan Annex. The loss of assessment capability is reportable to the NRC within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of the discovery in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii)
The seismic recorder was reset by Plant Engineering at 0440 CST on March 8 2015, which restored the seismic monitoring system to full capability. The unplanned non-functional condition of the seismic monitor was entered into the Byron CAP [Corrective Action] Program when the condition was discovered. Initially it was determined that the condition did not meet the requirements for an ENS notification as it was concluded that it did not substantially impair Byron station's emergency assessment capability in the event of an earthquake. Upon further review, at 0900 CDT on March 12, 2015, it was concluded that an ENS notification was warranted because the monitor was specifically Cited in the Emergency Action Level (EAL) HA4 threshold for identifying an ALERT due to an OBE (Reference procedure EP-AA-1002, Addendum 3, 'Emergency Action Levels for Byron Station'). A follow-up written notification is not required for this notification under 10 CFR 50.73. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified." The State of Illinois Resident Inspector has been notified.
Upon further review of this event for the time period of 3/07/12 through 3/17/15, Byron Station has identified six previous occurrences where the Seismic Monitor was declared non-functional, which impacted the capability to perform an ALERT EAL (HA4) assessment in accordance with the Radiological Emergency Plan Annex. These occurred on November 6, 2014; April17, 2013; January 2, 2013; October 10, 2012; July 18, 2012 and July 9, 2012. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. Notified the R3DO (Roach). |
