Catawba Nuclear Station NRC Exam September 2013 Scenario 1 - Summary Initial Condition IC 177 Unit 1 is at ~1% power, BOL. 1EMF-72, (1S/G B Leakage) is out of service. 1A NI pump is out of service for preventive maintenance.

Turnover:

Unit 1 is at ~1% power, BOL. 1EMF-72, (1S/G B Leakage) is out of service. 1A NI pump is out of service for preventive maintenance. The crew is to shift operating charging pumps and then increase power to 13-15% for placing the turbine on-line per OP/1/A/6100/001 Enclosure 4.1 step 3.195 and the reactivity management plan. All Mode 1 prerequisites have been completed. York County is under a severe thunderstorm watch for the next 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

Event 1 Shift operating charging pumps per OP/1/A/6200/001 (Chemical and Volume Control System), .13 (Shifting the Operating Charging Pump).

Event 2 Raise power to 13-15%.

Event 3 1B S/G Wide Range level signal fails LOW. Results in the associated Feed Reg. Bypass Valve opening. RO takes manual control of level control valves to stabilize and restore 1B S/G level.

AP/06 (Loss of SG Feedwater) Case III entry.

Event 4 1A2 KC (Component Cooling Water) pump trips. BOP starts additional pump(s) as needed to restore cooling. AP/21 (Loss of Component Cooling) entry. TS evaluation required.

Event 5 1A Main Feedwater Pump trips, along with the failure of the 1A AFW pump to auto start. RO recognizes that the turbine driven AFW pump (CAPT) needs to be manually started. AP/06 Case I entry. A TS evaluation required due to failure of the 1A AFW pump to auto start.

Event 6 1NC-32B (PZR PORV) fails open. RO attempts manual closure of the PORV. This will not be successful. AP/11 (Pressurizer Pressure Anomalies) entry. This is the major event because the PZR PORV cannot be closed, nor will the manual block isolation close. Recognizing a LOCA, the crew will determine that the reactor must be tripped.

Event 7 1B NI (Safety Injection) Pump fails to auto start on the SI signal. BOP manually starts to establish intermediate head injection flow.

Event 8 Control rod K14 does not fully insert upon the reactor trip. RO opens the reactor trip breakers.

Critical Task 1 - Establish flow from at least one intermediate head ECCS pump prior to transition from E-0.

Critical Task 2 - Trip NC pumps on loss of subcooling with S/I flow verified per E-0 within 5 minutes of criteria met.

Appendix D Required Operator Actions Form ES-D-2 Op Test No.: 301 Scenario # 1 Event # 1 Page 9 of 33 Event

Description:

Shift operating charging pumps.

Time Position Applicants Actions or Behavior NOTE TO EVALUATOR: Crew begins by shifting the operating charging pump per OP/1/A/6200/001 (Chemical and Volume Control System, Enclosure 4.13 (Shifting Of the Operating Charging Pump). The initial conditions are complete.

BOP Start NV PUMP 1B BOP Secure NV PUMP 1A NOTE TO EVALUATOR: The following actions are from OP/1/A/6200/001 Enclosure 4.13 (Shifting the Operating Charging Pump).

NOTE:This enclosure affects reactivity and is designated important to Reactivity Management per NSD 304 (Reactivity Management). (R.M.)

3.1 IF shifting from 1A NV Pump in service to 1B NV Pump in BOP service, perform the following:

CAUTION:

  • If an NV Pump has been idle for an extended period of time, a boron transient may be initiated when it is placed in service. The volume of 1B NV Pump and associated piping is 65 gallons; the magnitude of the transient will be minimal.
  • Shifting charging pumps at low NC System pressures (< 1000 psig) with NC Pump(s) in service will result in hydraulic transients being placed on the NC Pump seal packages. Operating experience shows that these transients will affect seal return flow. (PIP 09-2596)

NOTE: A loss of 1EPD with only the 1B NV Pump running will isolate normal letdown due to an indicated loss of both charging pumps; the loss of 1EPD also disables the LTOP function of 1NC-32B (PZR PORV) creating a challenge to LTOP. This challenge does NOT occur if either the 1A NV Pump is in service or ND Letdown is in service. (PIP C-12-1241)

NOTE TO EVALUATOR: Step 3.1.1 was marked N/A during the pre job brief.

3.1.2 Ensure VCT pressure is between 18-40 psig as read on BOP 1NVP5500 (VCT Vent Press) (1MC5).

NOTE: If in an emergency situation, the 30 second delay after starting the Aux Oil Pump is NOT required before starting the NV pump.

BOP 3.1.4 Start "NV PUMP 1B". (R.M.)

BOP 3.1.5 Place "NV PUMP 1B AUX OIL PUMP" in "AUTO".

NOTE TO EVALUATOR: 1AD-7, C/4 NCP SEAL WATER LO FLOW annunciates in the next step. Crew refers to the annunciator response, determines that this is due to securing the 1A NV Pump (Charging), and dispatches an operator to acknowledge the annunciator.

BOP 3.1.6 Stop "NV PUMP 1A".

BOP 3.1.7 Verify proper charging flow rate.

Event 1 Increase power to 100%.

Event 2 1NC-29 (PZR Spray Valve) fails open. BOP manually closes the spray valve (will be successful).

AP/11 (Pressurizer Pressure Anomalies) entry. TS evaluation required.

Event 3 NC Loop B Flow channel 2 fails LOW. TS evaluation required.

Event 4 1B Main Feedwater Pump trips and the Main Turbine will NOT run back in auto. RO recognizes that the Main Turbine needs to be run back to ~ 65% turbine load manually. AP/03 (Load Rejection) Case I entry.

Event 5 (Nuclear Service Water) 1B RN Pump trips. AP/20 (Loss of Nuclear Service Water) entry. BOP manually starts another RN pump (there is no auto start feature of the RN pumps for these conditions). TS evaluation required.

Event 6 1CF-33 (S/G 1A CF CONT ISOL) fails closed causing a loss of all feed flow to the 1A S/G requiring the RO to trip the reactor per AP/06 (Loss of S/G Feedwater).

Event 7 A steamline break outside containment occurs on the 1A S/G when the reactor trips.

Event 8 Main Steam Isolation fails to auto actuate. RO manually actuates Main Steam Isolation.

Event 9 1NI-9A (NV Cold Leg Injection Valve) fails to auto open on the SI. BOP takes manual action to open the valve for full injection.

Critical Task 1 - Isolate the faulted S/G before transition out of E-2.

Critical Task 2 - Manually actuate main steamline isolation before a severe (orange-path) challenge develops to either the subcriticality or the integrity CSF or before transition to ECA 2.1, whichever happens first.

SUMMARY

SAT UNSAT CT # CRITICAL TASK Isolate feed/steam to/from ruptured S/G before a transition to C-1 ECA-3.1.
