| event text = A pinhole leak was discovered on B train Essential Service Water (ESW) system piping while preparing the pipe surface for non-destructive examination. Control room personnel were notified of the leak at 1435. B ESW was immediately declared inoperable. At the time of control room notification, surveillance testing on the Turbine Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (TDAFP) was in progress. This surveillance testing made the TDAFP inoperable and non-functional. The surveillance activities were terminated and the TDAFP was returned to operable status at 1438.

B ESW is the safety related water source for B train of auxiliary feedwater (AFW). For the three minute period between notification of the pinhole leak until the TDAFP was restored to operable status, there were two auxiliary feed pumps inoperable. This met the conditions for entry into T/S LCO Action 3.7.5.D which requires a plant shut down to Hot Standby within 6 hours. This action was exited when the TDAFP surveillance testing was terminated. Additionally, with 2 of 3 auxiliary feedwater pumps non-functional for 3 minutes, there was a condition which could have prevented fulfillment of a safety function for those 3 minutes.
