| Title | Unusual Event Declared Due To An Earthquake |
| Event Description | The following event description is based on information currently available. If through subsequent reviews of this event, additional information is identified that is pertinent to this event or alters the information being provided at this time, a follow-up notification will be made via the ENS or under the reporting requirements of 10CFR50.73.
An Event Classification of Unusual Event (HU1.1) was declared at 1549 MST for the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station because of an earthquake that originated in Baja California, [Mexico] location 32.093?N, 115.249?W at 1542 MST. Per the USGS [U.S. Geological Survey] website, the magnitude of the earthquake was 6.9 on the Richter scale. Initial walkdowns of plant equipment and review of plant parameters have found no unusual conditions or damage to plant equipment. No abnormalities caused by the seismic event were observed. No Reactor Protection System (RPS) or Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) actuations occurred and none were required. Palo Verde Unit 1 is in mode 5 for a scheduled refueling outage, and Units 2 & 3 are at 100 percent power with all offsite power supplies available. Initial analysis of the Seismic Monitoring Instrumentation system indicated a seismic event, below the magnitude of the 0.10g spectra Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) and the 0.20g spectra Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE). The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
Emergency classification termination was declared at 4/4/10, 2045 MST. All required power block inspections were completed with no deficiencies noted. No other conditions require an emergency classification, there are no challenges to fission product barriers or radiological release, and plant conditions offer no possibility of adverse impact on health and safety of the public. NRC Resident Inspector has been notified of NUE termination. Notified the R4DO (Okeefe), NRR-EO (Bahadur), FEMA (Via), DHS (Wallace) and IRD via email (Gott). |
