| Title | Seismic Monitor Not Available for Emergency Plan Assessment |
| Event Description | Northern States Power Company - Minnesota (NSPM) has completed a review of seismic monitor performance at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) over the past 3 years. The emergency preparedness plan requires seismic monitoring instruments to diagnose an earthquake for emergency action levels (EAL) HA1.1 (Seismic Event Greater Than Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) as indicated by 'OBE Exceedance' alarm on Seismic Monitoring Panel) or HU1.1 (Earthquake felt in plant as indicated by Valid 'Event' alarm on Seismic Monitoring Panel). Contrary to that requirement, this review identified 6 unplanned instances where the seismic monitor was non-functional that were not previously reported, and 3 planned instances where the seismic monitor was non-functional for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> that were not previously reported. Since there was no compensatory measure that could be credited when the seismic monitor was non-functional, an emergency classification at the ALERT or UNUSUAL EVENT level could not be obtained with site instrumentation for a seismic event.
The seismic monitor is currently functional, however it was determined to be non-functional on the following dates: Unplanned out of service: 1. August 14, 2012 2. November 16, 2012 3. November 18 2012 4. November 21, 2012 5. December 5, 2012 6. January 16, 2013 Planned greater than 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> out of service: 1. December 14, 2012 2. September 3, 2014 3. September 30, 2014 The unplanned non-functional conditions of the seismic monitor have been corrected and were entered into the NSPM Corrective Action Program. 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 discovery in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii). This report is required per 10 CFR 50.72(a)(1)(ii) as an event that occurred within 3 years of the date of discovery. Corrective actions are in progress to address the missed reporting of seismic monitor unavailability. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
