Title	Equipment Failure Results in Inoperable Secondary Containment
Event Description	At 1408 EDT on 9/18/2015, Secondary Containment Refuel Floor exhaust flow degraded due to an equipment malfunction in the running Refuel Floor exhaust train. The degraded exhaust flow caused Secondary Containment differential pressure to go positive for approximately three minutes, resulting in Secondary Containment being declared inoperable. Corrective action to start the Stand-by Gas Treatment System and the alternate Refuel Floor exhaust train restored Secondary Containment operable by re-establishing its required negative differential pressure. This event is being reported under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(C) and per the guidance of NUREG-1022, Rev. 3, 'Any event or condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function of structures or systems that are needed to control the release of radioactive material.' The Duty Team has been activated to develop a repair plan. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified.
