| Title | Unit 2 Manual Reactor Trip Due to Jellyfish Intrusion |
| Event Description | On October 21, 2008, with both units operating at 100% power, Operators manually actuated the Unit 2 reactor protection system (RPS/reactor trip) due to high differential pressure (DP) across the circulating water pumps' intake traveling screens. The high DP resulted from a rapid influx of jellyfish. All systems responded as designed. All control rods fully inserted. Auxiliary feedwater actuated as designed. The grid is stable with power being supplied by 230 Kv startup power. Diesel generator (DG) 2-2 and 2-3 are operable in standby. DG 2-1 is inoperable due to scheduled maintenance. The traveling screens for the safety-related auxiliary saltwater system (ASW) are not degraded and are managing the influx of jellyfish with no significantly elevated DP. Unit 2 is stable in Mode 3 at normal operating temperature and pressure.
This event is being reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B), 'RPS actuation,' and 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A), 'Specified System Actuation.' Operators reduced power on Unit 1 in response to the potential loss of normal flow to the condenser due to the jellyfish influx on the traveling screens. Currently, the traveling screens are maintaining DP within limits and the unit is stable at 50% power. Unit 2 decay heat removal is being performed by Auxiliary Feed Water to four steam generators blowing down via the 10% steam dumps to atmosphere. No other safety related equipment was out of service at the time of the trip. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
The licensee issued a press release regarding this issue. Notified R4DO (Deese). |
