| Title | Both Trains Of Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System Declared Inoperable |
| Event Description | During Unit 2 refueling outage [currently defueled] preventative maintenance on CV-31117, Loop B Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV), an opening in the valve was discovered without direct administrative controls to ensure the opening could be closed within 6 minutes following a Loss of Coolant Accident on Unit 1. Addition of this opening to other openings created a total of greater than 10 square feet of non-closable openings and required declaring the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System (ABSVS) boundary inoperable. The inoperable ABSVS boundary caused both trains of ABSVS to be declared inoperable and required entry into Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.12, Condition B. This could have prevented the ability to control the release of radioactive material and is considered a potential loss of safety function per 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v)(C).
Administrative controls in the ABSVS Boundary were re-established by installing a closure device in the opening on CV-31117 at 1246 CDT. The ABSVS boundary and both trains of ABSVS were declared operable at that time. During the time that the ventilation system was out of service, no evolutions were in progress that could have resulted in an unmonitored release.
After further evaluation, the non-closable boundary openings for the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation Zone (ABSVZ) including CV-31117, Loop B Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV), at the time of discovery is calculated to be 9.48 square feet. This is below the 10 square feet required in TS 3.7.12, thus both trains of ABSVS were operable and no loss of safety function existed. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified the R3DO (Cameron). |
