Title	Automatic Reactor SCRAM
Event Description	At 1826 EDT on July 21, 2021, Susquehanna Steam Electric Station Unit 1 reactor automatically scrammed due to a trip of the Main Turbine. Unit 1 reactor was operating at 100 percent reactor power with no evolutions in progress. The Control Room received indication of a Main Turbine trip with both divisions of RPS [Reactor Protection System] actuated and all control rods inserted. The Reactor Recirculation Pumps tripped on EOC-RPT [end of cycle recirculation pump trip]. Reactor water level lowered to +8 inches causing Level 3 (+13 inches) isolations. No ECCS [Emergency Core Cooling Systems] or RCIC [Reactor Core Isolation Cooling system] actuations occurred. The Operations crew subsequently maintained reactor water level at the normal operating band using Reactor Feed Water. The reactor is currently stable in Mode 3 with main condenser available. Investigation into the trip of the Main Turbine is in progress. The NRC Resident Inspector was notified. A voluntary notification to PEMA will be made.
