EN Revision Text: REACTOR SCRAM SIGNAL WHEN SHUTDOWN
The following information was provided by the licensee via fax:

"On September 4, 2022 with Unit 2 in Mode 3, an [Reactor Protection System] RPS actuation and Containment Isolation occurred on [Reactor Pressure Vessel] RPV Low Level (Level 3) of 159.3 inches due to issues with the normal feedwater level control system during plant cooldown.

"The RPS actuation occurred with control rods already inserted and a containment isolation on Level 3. The containment isolation signal impacted [Residual Heat Removal] RHR Shutdown Cooling, RHR letdown to radwaste, and RHR sampling. All impacted valves were closed at the time the isolation occurred. Operators took manual control of RPV level and restored level to the normal operating band shortly after the low level was received.

"This is being reported under 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) and 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(iv)(B)."

The NRC Resident Inspector was notified.
