| Title | Emergency Feedwater System Actuation |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the licensee via email and phone:
At 1625 [EST] on 2/13/2022, with Unit 2 in Mode 3 at 0 percent power and plant heat up to normal operating temperature in progress, an actuation of the Emergency Feedwater System (EFW) occurred. The reason for the EFW auto-start was lowering water level in the 2A and 2B Steam Generators due to failure of the 2A Main Feedwater Pump to respond as required to maintain Steam Generator water level as Steam Generator pressure increased during plant heat up. The 2A and 2B Motor Driven Emergency Feedwater (MDEFW) pumps automatically started as designed when the 'low steam generator level' signal was received for the 2A and 2B Steam Generators. Following further evaluation, it was determined that a valid EFW actuation occurred, therefore this event is being reported as a late 8-hour non-emergency notification of a valid actuation of the EFW system in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A). There was no impact on the health and safety of the public or plant personnel. The NRC Resident Inspector has been notified. |
