INADVERTENT ACTUATION OF SPECIFIED SYSTEM - SECONDARY CONTAINMENT ISOLATION AND STANDBY GAS TREATMENT SYSTEM
"This 60-day optional report. as allowed by 10 CFR 50.73(a)(1), is being made under the reporting requirement in
10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) to describe an invalid actuation of a specified system, specifically Secondary Containment Isolation and Standby Gas Treatment System.
"On September 10, 2001, a lightning storm struck the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station and resulted in a trip of the 2B Reactor Protection System (RPS) Motor Generator (MG) set due to a blown fuse. As a result of the loss of the 2B RPS power supply, the Secondary Containment outboard isolation valves closed and the Standby Gas Treatment system automatically started.
"The Secondary Containment outboard isolation valves and the Standby Gas Treatment responded as expected for the given conditions. Both systems were subsequently returned to their normal configuration per plant procedures. No deficiencies were noted during actuation of either system.
"This event has been entered into the site-specific corrective action program for resolution.
"The NRC resident has been informed."
