| Title | Unit Commenced Shutdown Due to Inoperable Division 2 Emergency Service Water System |
| Event Description | This event is being reported in accordance with 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(i). On October 15, 2009, at approximately 1225 hours0.0142 days <br />0.34 hours <br />0.00203 weeks <br />4.661125e-4 months <br />, the Perry Nuclear Power Plant commenced a Technical Specification required plant shutdown.
On October 14, 2009, At 1747 hours0.0202 days <br />0.485 hours <br />0.00289 weeks <br />6.647335e-4 months <br />, the Division 2 Emergency Service Water (ESW) system was declared inoperable and unavailable for planned work. The plant entered Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.1 Action A for one inoperable ESW Division. Other supported TSs were also entered (TS 3.8.1 for the Division 2 diesel generator, TS 3.6.1.7 for Containment Spray 'B', TS 3.6.2.3 for Suppression Pool Cooling 'B', TS 3.7.10 for Emergency Closed Cooling 'B', TS 3.5.1 for LPCI 'B' & 'C', among others). On October 15, 2009, at 0601 hours0.00696 days <br />0.167 hours <br />9.937169e-4 weeks <br />2.286805e-4 months <br />, the ESW 'B' pump was started for a planned pump run. At 0718 hours0.00831 days <br />0.199 hours <br />0.00119 weeks <br />2.73199e-4 months <br />, the ESW 'B' pump tripped for unknown reasons. The determination was made to commence a controlled plant shutdown and power reduction commenced at 1225 hours0.0142 days <br />0.34 hours <br />0.00203 weeks <br />4.661125e-4 months <br />. This decision was based on the anticipated investigation and repair time of ESW 'B' pump exceeding the TS 3.7.1 Action A 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> LCO completion time, and therefore, Action B requires the plant to be in MODE 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 4 in 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. The TS 3.7.1 Action A 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> LCO completion time coincides with October 17, 2009, at 1747 hours0.0202 days <br />0.485 hours <br />0.00289 weeks <br />6.647335e-4 months <br />. Currently, the plant is expected to be in MODE 3 at approximately 2300 hours0.0266 days <br />0.639 hours <br />0.0038 weeks <br />8.7515e-4 months <br /> on October 15, 2009.
