Specify in Abstract below or in
CAUSE OF EVENT
The cause of the event was an unexpected response of the HPCI turbine governor control valve that is most likely due to a potential internal malfunction of the EGR. The cause will be determined once the manufacturer's failure analysis results are received and reviewed. A supplemental report will be submitted once the failure analysis has been review and the causal evaluation has been approved.
SAFETY CONSEQUENCES AND IMPLICATIONS
HPCI was declared inoperable. Based on the HPCI system being inoperable, a Safety System Functional Failure (SSFF) occurred as defined in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 99-02.
PREVIOUS OCCURRENCES
A review of Licensee Event Reports for the past three years at Hope Creek was performed to determine if a similar event had occurred. No similar events were noted.
CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
1.
2.
3.
The EGR and remote servo was replaced.
The EGR and remote servo was sent to Woodward for failure analysis and refurbishment.
An apparent cause evaluation is being conducted.
COMMITMENTS
This LER contains no regulatory commitments.
