ERROR DURING REACTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM SURVEILLANCE LEADS TO REACTOR TRIP
"On June 6, 2011, during the performance of Reactor Protection System Logic Matrix Testing, a Reactor Trip occurred. All CEA's [Control Element Assemblies] fully inserted into the core. Decay Heat removal was initially from Auxiliary Feedwater and Steam Bypass to the Main Condenser. All equipment operated as expected. Currently maintaining pressurizer pressure at 2250 psia, temperature maintaining at 532 degrees F. Auxiliary Feedwater actuated as designed. As of 0435, decay heat removal is via Main Feedwater and Steam Bypass control to Main Condenser.
"During the transfer of Auxiliary Feedwater to Main Feedwater a second AFAS actuation occurred.
"Unit 1 was unaffected and remains in Mode 1 at 100% power.
"This event is reportable pursuant to 10CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) for the Reactor Trip, as well as 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) for specified system actuation (Auxiliary Feedwater)."
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.

UNUSUAL EVENT DECLARED DUE TO RIVER LEVEL
"At 0800 CDT a Notification of Unusual Event (HU 1, EAL 5) for operating mode less than 210 degrees F is being declared for a river level expected to exceed a 1004' MSL (Mean Sea Level), but less than or equal to 1009' MSL elevation. Currently Abnormal Operating Procedure AOP-1 is being implemented for high river level, as well as, PE-RR-AE-1001 for Flood Barrier and Sandbag Staging and Installation. This condition is being reported pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(a)(1)(i) for declaration of an emergency class specified in the licensee's approved emergency plan. Applicable governmental agencies have been notified per plant procedures. No press release is expected at this time."
