| POTENTIALLY CONTAMINATED PERSON TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL |
| |
| "On 7/5/00 at 1105, a potentially contaminated worker was taken offsite by |
| ambulance to John Warner Hospital in Clinton, Illinois. The worker, an |
| Electrician, was working on the Fuel Building bridge on 755' Fuel Building |
| when he passed out. The Electrician was working in a potentially |
| contaminated area. Radiation Protection personnel accompanied the |
| electrician to the hospital but were not able to verify that he was not |
| contaminated at the time he left site to be taken to the hospital. The |
| electrician regained consciousness while on the Fuel Building bridge. At |
| 1132, Radiation Protection personnel frisked the electrician at the hospital |
| and found no contamination on the individual or his clothing. This |
| notification is being made pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(v), Offsite |
| Medical." |

| REACTOR CORE COOLING SYSTEM ISOLATION DURING A SURVEILLANCE |
| |
| "On 7/5/2000 at 0920 CDT, the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) System |
| isolated due to a sensed high steam supply line differential pressure. |
| Instrument technicians were performing required surveillance test |
| STP-207-4248 on Division 1 pressure transmitter, E51-PDTN084A. This |
| surveillance requires the transmitter to be hydraulically isolated from the |
| system in order to perform a calibration and also generates a Division 1 |
| RCIC Isolation signal. |
| |
| Per the plant design, the Division 1 and 2 pressure transmitters share a |
| common sensing line. While removing the Division 1 transmitter from |
| service, the Division 2 transmitter, E51-PDTN084B, spiked high causing a |
| Division 2 RCIC isolation signal and subsequent closure of E51-MOVF063, RCIC |
| Steam Supply Inboard Isolation Valve. |
| |
| Although the RCIC system was inoperable for scheduled maintenance at the |
| time of the Division 2 isolation, the containment isolation function was |
| still in service and considered operable. High Pressure Core Spray and all |
| other ECCS systems remained operable while the RCIC system was isolated. |
| RCIC will be returned to service following the completion of the scheduled |
| maintenance activities. |
| |
| The RCIC System Isolation Instrumentation is designated as an Engineered |
| Safety Features system and this event is therefore reportable in accordance |
| with 10CFR50.72." |
| |
| The NRC Resident Inspector was notified. |

| REACTOR TRIP FROM 100% POWER DUE TO TURBINE TRIP. |
| |
| The plant had a reactor trip from 100% power due to a turbine trip. Cause |
| of the turbine trip is being investigated. All control rods fully inserted |
| and no relief valves lifted or ECCS actuated. The plant is stable in mode 3 |
| with RCS temperature and pressure at 547�F and 2235 Psig. There were no |
| radiological releases and no RCS or steam generator tube leaks. All safety |
| related equipment functioned as required and remains operable. The aux feed |
| system started as expected and decay heat is being removed via the steam |
| bypass system to the condenser. |
| |
| The NRC Resident Inspector was notified. |
