At filling of a makeup system in the night from Monday to Tuesday, the technicians found that one of the valves remained open after the made maintenance. Until its closing, 2 m3 of impure condensate containing boric acid has flown out through the valve. This all occurred in a closed room within the controlled area of the power plant and the condensate has been drained into a tank assigned for these purposes. The room has been rinsed by pure water. No release of radioactive matters occurred off the controlled area of the power plant and the health of the workers was not threatened. All auxiliary systems are working in accordance with the operation needs of individual units.
