PLANT STATUS

Unit 1 began the inspection period at or near rated thermal power. Unit 1 remained at or near rated thermal for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at or near rated thermal power. On April 15, 2018, operators shut down the reactor to commence refueling and maintenance outage N2R16. Upon completion of N2R16, operators performed a reactor startup on May 11. The generator was placed on the grid on May 14, ending N2R16. On May 14, operators raised reactor power to 17 percent, and maintained this power level to search for the source of elevated offgas flow rates. On May 16, operators raised reactor power to 30 percent to place the moisture separator reheaters in service to continue searching for the source of elevated offgas flow rates. On May 17, following the identification of the source of elevated offgas flow rates, operators continued power ascension. On May 18, Unit 2 achieved rated thermal power. On May 21, operators reduced reactor power to 90 percent to perform a control rod sequence exchange.

Unit 2 was restored to rated thermal power the same day. On June 16, operators reduced reactor power to 60 percent to perform power suppression testing. On June 18, Unit 2 was returned to rated following testing. On June 19, Unit 2 experienced an unplanned dual reactor recirculation pump (RRP) downshift in speed causing reactor power to be reduced to 30 percent. On June 20, operators commenced power ascension, after isolating a degraded portion of the RRP downshift circuit. Operators achieved 100 percent on June 21. Unit 2 remained at or near rated thermal power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515 Appendix D, Plant Status and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess Exelons performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Failure to Ensure Proper Control of the Standby Gas Treatment System Damper Valve, 2GTS*V2000B, Within Procedures, Materials, and Design Control Measures Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Barrier Integrity Green NCV P.1 - Problem 71111.19 05000410/2018002-01 Identification Closed and Resolution, Identification The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, when Exelon failed to ensure proper control of the SGTS damper valve 2GTS*V2000B within procedures, materials, and design control measures. Specifically, on April 15, 2018 operators attempted to run B SGTS for containment purge; however, no flow was observed and the system was secured. Operators discovered the 2GTS*V2000B closed due to the failure of the operating mechanism to maintain control of the valve position.

Description:

The SGTS is a two-train system used to provide a filtered path from primary and secondary containment to the environment during a radionuclide release. The secondary function is to drawdown reactor building pressure below turbine building pressure. Each train contains a fan, filtration, and associated dampers. On April 15, 2018 operators attempted to run the B SGTS fan to perform a containment purge. The operator was forced to immediately secure the fan due to no flow. Exelon immediately entered Technical Specification (TS) Limited Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.6.4.3 Condition A.1, which required restoration of operability within 7 days. Follow-up by operators determined the manual discharge damper (butterfly valve), 2GTS*V2000B, had failed closed due to disengagement of the thumb screw to the mounting plate, lack of friction fit. Operators noted the thumb screw was bent. It was determined that the damper was last manipulated on April 13 for performance of N2-OSP-GTS-R001, Secondary Containment Drawdown, Revision 01400.

Exelon immediately replaced the thumb screw with an alternative locking screw. Exelon declared SGTS operable and exited TS LCO 3.6.4.3. Exelon then documented the issue in the Corrective Action Program (CAP) as IR 04126851, and performed a work group evaluation (WGE). Exelon determined operators lacked a questioning attitude to ensure proper engagement of the thumb screw.

The inspectors reviewed the WGE and performed a walkdown of the affected equipment.

The inspectors determined that the WGE failed to evaluate the degradation of the thumb screw, did not identify lock mechanism design differences between the two trains, evaluate the design of the damper, or evaluate the adequacy of the procedures used to maintain configuration control. During system walkdowns, the inspectors identified that the replacement thumb screw was tightened enough to bend the mounting plate. The inspectors determined there was no procedural guidance for the staff to ensure the locking mechanism was properly engaged and not over or under torqued. Exelon captured the inspectors concerns as part of IR 04157970 to address the concern of N2-OSP-GTS-R001 not containing an adequate configuration control and verification method. Exelon also generated IR 04157973 to capture the inspectors concerns regarding the inadequacy of the CAP evaluation.

The inspectors determined the design of the 2GTS*V2000A/B controls were not translated within procedures, materials, and design control measures, as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III. Dampers 2GTS*V2000A/B were not designed to be locked in an intermediate position, only fully open or fully shut. Specifically, the design of the 2GTS*V2000A/B controls (i.e., hand level assembly for butterfly valve) includes two 1/8-inch diameter at the depth of the drill point positive locking functions for the fully open and fully closed position; however, these design features and associated function do not exist in the field. When the dampers design function was modified to maintain the damper in an intermediate position, the locking mechanism design was not revised. With the damper in the intermediate position, the failure of the locking mechanism results in the damper failing closed which prevents the train from performing the safety function from being fulfilled, to drawdown reactor building pressure. As a result, the locking mechanism should have been reclassified as safety-related. The locking mechanism and associate parts are classified as non-safety-related. Furthermore, design requirements were not adequately translated to operating procedures. Operating procedures treated the operation of the locking mechanism as skill of the craft and did not provide guidance or acceptance criteria for the locking mechanism to ensure the safety function was maintained. Specifically, over-torqueing can damage the device as demonstrated by the deformed mounting plate and bent thumb screw and under-torqueing can result in inadequate friction fit to maintain the locking mechanism in place.

Corrective Action: As an immediate corrective action, on April 15, 2018, Exelon generated IR 04126851, and replaced the bent thumb screw with an alternate locking screw. Exelon also generated IR 04158622 to document the design control issue and to recommend an action to modify the locking mechanism on 2GTS*V2000B. Exelon also generated IR 04157970 to address the concern of N2-OSP-GTS-R001 not containing an adequate configuration control and verification method. Exelon also generated IR 04157973 to capture the inspectors concerns regarding the inadequacy of the CAP evaluation.

Corrective Action References: IR 04126851, IR 04133018

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the failure to ensure proper control of the SGTS damper (butterfly valve), 2GTS*V2000B, within procedures, materials, and design control measures was contrary to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, and was a performance deficiency.

Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor because it adversely affected structure, system, or component (SSC) and Barrier Performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone objective of ensuring that physical design barriers (containment) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the failure to control the SGTS damper (butterfly valve), 2GTS*V2000B resulted in unplanned inoperability when the damper (butterfly valve) failed closed when called upon for operation.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, Exhibit 3, Barrier Integrity Screening Questions. The finding screened as of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding only represented a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the SGTS.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The inspectors determined that the finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Identification within the cross-cutting area of Problem Identification and Resolution because Exelon did not demonstrate the characteristics of identifying the issue completely, accurately, and in a timely manner in accordance with their program. [P.1]

Enforcement:

Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, measures shall also be established for the selection and review for suitability of application of materials, and the design control measures shall provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, such as by the performance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by the performance of a suitable testing program.

Contrary to the above, from 1987 until April 15, 2018, Exelon failed to assure the applicable design basis was translated into procedures, the selection and suitability of application of materials, and the performance of suitable testing program. Specifically, when the damper function was changed to operate in a throttled position, NMPNS staff did not reflect this change in design drawings, system specifications, or plant operating or test procedures. As a result, the locking device was damaged and failed on April 15, 2018 causing a loss of B SBGT function.

Disposition: Exelon entered this issue into the CAP as IR 04126851 and 04133018. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Closed Resources Identification and Resolution The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures and Drawings, when Exelon did not provide appropriate quantitative or qualitative criteria and guidance to operators in procedure N1- OP- 13 Emergency Cooling System to return an emergency condenser loop to service without inducing a water hammer condition which caused operators to re-isolate the emergency condenser loop and declare it inoperable.

Description:

On April 3, 2018, Exelon staff completed maintenance on the 12 emergency condenser loop keep full system and made preparations to return the 12 emergency condenser to its normal standby condition. The 12 emergency condenser loop had been isolated for approximately 18.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> for the maintenance and the steam piping had cooled to less than 200 degrees Fahrenheit during that time. Using procedure N1-OP-13, Emergency Cooling System, operators placed the system into standby condition from a cold condition in approximately 31 minutes. Shortly after the system was placed in standby and declared operable, operators identified that the 12 emergency condenser steam line pressure was oscillating and water hammer were occurring. Approximately 1.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> later, operators isolated the emergency condenser due to the water hammer and declared the emergency condenser inoperable.

Exelon staff performed a WGE to determine the causes of the water hammer condition. The WGE identified the cause as: The amount of time that the 12 emergency condenser vents and drains were open was not sufficient to remove the build-up of condensate while 12 emergency condenser was isolated. Exelon staff identified and tracked a corrective action to implement procedure change PCR-18-01219 to N1-OP-13 which provided caution statements in the procedure for operator awareness.

The inspectors reviewed Exelons WGE and corrective actions. The inspectors concluded that the WGE was of sufficient technical detail and scope to identify the likely cause of this condition.

The inspectors reviewed and assessed the guidance in procedure N1-OP-13 and the changes enacted by procedure change request PCR-18-1219 following the water hammer event.

The inspectors determined that the version of N1-OP-13 in effect during the event did not provide appropriate quantitative or qualitative criteria to operators to place the emergency condenser into a standby condition from an isolated condition, either cold or hot. Specifically, N1-OP-13 did not provide guidance on heat-up or pressurization rates and did not provide guidance on what actions to take in the event that water hammer occurs. The procedure did not direct opening the steam line drain valves until just before opening the steam isolation valve, which does not allow an adequate amount of time for condensate formed during the heat up process to drain from the steam line before placing the system into standby. Exelon PCR-18-1219 added a Caution note in the procedure stated that Opening Steam IV(s) too rapidly may cause water hammer, valve motion may be controlled by using PULL TO STOP, which did not prevent water hammer from occurring. It is more appropriate to include caution statements in a procedure to inform operators of required actions or limits on parameter changes which are required to put a system back into service successfully. The caution statement was revised to reflect the inspectors observation.

Corrective Actions: Exelon entered the occurrence of the water hammer event into the CAP as IR 4122437 and performed a WGE. In response to the WGE, Exelon implemented a procedure change (PCR-18-01219) to N1-OP-13, which provided additional qualitative guidance to operators for returning an isolated emergency condenser loop to service. In response to NRC questions (IR 4147082), Exelon completed a technical evaluation to verify that the loading on the emergency condenser piping and tubing was bound by the design basis. Exelon entered the notification of the finding and NCV into the CAP as IR 4154771.

Corrective Action Reference(s): 4112237, 4147082, 4154771

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Exelon did not provide appropriate qualitative or quantitative criteria in procedure N1-OP-13, Emergency Condenser Operation for returning an isolated emergency condenser loop to service following maintenance.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it adversely affected the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609 Appendix A, Exhibit 2 Mitigating System Screening Questions. The performance deficiency did not affect the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC, did not represent a loss of system or function, did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time, and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more highly safety significant non-technical specification equipment and therefore screened as low safety significance (Green).

Cross-Cutting Aspect: Human Performance, Resources: Leaders ensure that personnel, equipment, procedures, and other resources are available and adequate to support nuclear safety (H.1).

Enforcement:

Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures and Drawings requires, in parts, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Instructions, procedures, or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished.

Contrary to the above, on April 3, 2018, Exelon did not provide appropriate quantitative or qualitative criteria in procedure N1-OP-13, Emergency Cooling System to satisfactorily place the 12 emergency condenser loop into the standby condition from an isolated condition.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Observations 71152 Semiannual Trend Review The inspectors evaluated a sample of issues and events that occurred over the course of the first and second quarters of 2018 to determine whether issues were appropriately considered as emerging or adverse trends. The inspectors verified that these issues were addressed within the scope of the CAP or through department review.

The evaluation did not reveal any new trends that could indicate a more significant safety issue. The inspectors noted minor trends associated with procedure quality and adherence issues where operators are rationalizing working around inadequate or vague procedure steps. In addition, operators were not adequately initiating actions to make changes to procedures if areas of improvement were identified. Examples include the inspectors observations of the following:

Unit 1:

• Inspectors identified in N1-OP-13, Emergency Cooling System, Revision 04200 that the procedure did not contain adequate guidance for restoration of the system from standby while the reactor is at rated power. This resulted in a water hammer event on April 3, 2018, and discussed further in Green NCV 05000220-2018002-02 documented in this inspection report.

• N1-OP-31, Tandem Compound Reheat Turbine, Revision 04900 Precaution and Limitation 38 provides ambiguous direction to operators after they identify elevated turbine vibrations. Specifically, the inspectors interviews with operators identified inconsistent opinions regarding the procedures direction to hold power steady at the nearest practicable level. This same direction is also provided in N1-ARP-A2, Control Room Panel A2, Revision 01200.

Unit 2:

• Inspectors identified that operators failed to establish the required flow while placing shutdown cooling in-service in accordance with Section 6.4.18 of N1-OP-31, Residual Heat Removal System, Revision 03500. Exelon determined after an additional review that the flow rate was adequate to provide sufficient heat removal and did not impact core reactivity.

• Following failure of SGTS damper (butterfly valve) 2GTS*V2000B, inspectors identified the procedure contained inadequate guidance to ensure proper configuration control, resulting in the mounting plate being bent following restoration of a degraded locking mechanism component. This is discussed further in Green NCV 05000410/2018002-01 documented in this report.

• During testing, inspectors identified that operators failed to ensure the Division 2 EDG output voltage met TS acceptance criteria during Step 6.2.40 of Attachment 4 of N2-OSP-EGS-R004, Operating Cycle Diesel Generator Simulated Loss of Offsite Power with and without ECCS Division 1/2, Revision 01800, due to vague procedural guidance. This test was performed in a mode where the EDG was not required by Technical Specifications.

• While removing a service water pump from service, inspectors identified N2-OP-11, Service Water System, Revision 01301, Step 1.4 of Section G provides vague guidance to operators when closing a discharge isolation valve at different speeds for service water pump shutdown, instead operators used past knowledge to operate the valve at a constant speed.

• Following Unit 2 control rod 10-19 scram, inspectors identified N2-SOP-08, Unplanned Power Changes, Revision 01300 does not provide adequate procedure exit criteria following a single control rod scram. Although reactor engineering may conclude core limits are met following an event, the procedure does not provide exit criteria for this condition. Instead, the procedure requires the cause of the event to be corrected before exiting the procedure. This presents a conflict for operators which recognize the core is safe following the event, however per procedure they should still be required to scram the reactor should an additional control rod scram.

Common:

• OP-AA-108-114, Post Transient Review, Revision 13 provides operators vague guidance for determining if high level isolations or trips occurred in Section E.10. This resulted in Unit 1 operators failing to identify in their post trip review a high level trip that occurred during the scram on September 6, 2017. The trip was an expected plant response for the transient and the instrumentation performed as designed.

The inspectors also identified a trend associated with inadequate CAP screening and evaluation quality in accordance with PI-AA-120, Identification and Screening, Revision and PI-AA-125, Corrective Action Program Procedure, Revision 6. Examples include:

• IR 04122437 - The inspectors identified Exelons screening for the issue associated with Unit 1 emergency condenser water hammer was not in accordance with PI-AA-120, to ensure the right significance was applied to the CAP product. The inspectors determined that the screening as a Level 4/D was inadequate, and a Level 3 significance should have been assigned, resulting in a more detailed CAP evaluation using a CAP evaluation. The WGE that was performed also did not adequately assess the hydrodynamic effects of water hammer, and failed to assess the adequacy of N1-OP-13, Emergency Cooling System, Revision 04200 for establishing a proper heatup rate for system restoration. This is discussed further the IP

71152 - Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues observation documented in this report *

IR 04122437 - The inspectors identified the WGE did not adequately assess the failure of SGTS damper (butterfly valve) 2GTS*V2000B. Specifically, the evaluation focused on human performance errors surrounding operators questioning attitude, and did not develop corrective actions to address it. It also failed to assess the condition of the locking mechanism after the event occurred on April 15, 2018. The inspectors walkdowns, review of design drawings, and interviews revealed the degraded condition of the thumb screw existed prior to the event, and was not captured. The inspectors also identified the mounting plate for the locking mechanism was bent after the locking bolt was replaced on April 15, 2018, and should have been identified by Exelon. This is discussed further in Green NCV 05000410/2018002-01.

• IR 03951525 - During review of the root cause associated with a Unit 1 scram on December 10, 2016, it was identified that Exelon did not assess the preventive maintenance previously performed on the equipment that failed and caused the scram.

Although the inspectors determined that the maintenance was conducted, it showed an opportunity existed to identify the procedure clearer on what inspections are conducted and how they could be conducted to assess potential degradation in material thickness.

There were no adverse safety consequences as a result of these low-level trend issues. The examples identified by the inspectors were captured in the Exelon CAP as IR 04157970 and IR 04157973. Based on the overall results of the semi-annual trend review, the inspectors determined that Exelon was properly identifying adverse trends at NMPNS before they became more significant safety problems. The inspectors independently evaluated the deficiencies noted above for significance in accordance with the guidance in IMC 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening, and Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues. The inspectors determined, except as noted, these conditions were deficiencies of minor significance and, therefore, are not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs Enforcement Policy.

Observations 71152 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues On April 3, 2018, while placing the 12 emergency condenser loop into its normal standby condition from a cold maintenance condition, operators noted that the shell side temperatures for the 121 and 122 emergency condensers began to rise coincident with reports of water hammer taking place. Operators isolated the 12 emergency condenser loop and declared it inoperable. Exelon entered the issue into the CAP as IR 4122437. Following engineering walkdown of the 12 emergency condenser loop and warming the loop for a longer period of time, operators successfully placed the 12 loop into standby condition.

Screening of Condition Report 4122437 Using procedure PI-AA-120, Issue Identification and Screening Process, Exelon screened IR 4122437 as a significance level 4 issue, which does not require a formal investigation to determine causes or corrective actions. Exelon did perform a work group evaluation to determine the cause of the event and generate corrective actions.

The inspectors reviewed the WGE, which concluded that the cause of the water hammer event was that the amount of time that the 12 emergency condenser steam vents and drains were open was not sufficient to remove the build-up of condensate in the steam lines. The WGE generated a corrective action to implement a change to the operating procedure to preclude another water hammer condition. The inspectors noted that while the cause of the water hammer was identified along with a corresponding corrective action, the effects of the water hammer on the emergency condenser tubes, welds, tube sheet, condensate return valve and steam piping were not evaluated.

The inspectors performed an independent assessment of the condition, which generated an integrated timeline of the event and evaluated the effects on the 12 emergency condenser components and the effectiveness of the procedure change implemented by Exelon. The inspectors engaged NRC technical staff from the Division of Nuclear Reactor Regulation who modeled the event using GOTHIC software. The results of the GOTHIC model were used to narrow the scope of the independent assessment to those components where the design basis margin might be challenged. The inspectors developed a series of questions which were asked of NMPNS engineering staff. Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station engineering generated a technical evaluation which addressed the inspectors concerns and concluded that the event was bounded by the emergency condenser design basis and the integrity of the emergency condenser tubes and steam piping was not impacted.

The inspectors reviewed the screening of IR 4122437 as a significance level 4 issue and the examples of significance levels provided in PI-AA-120. The inspectors noted that this condition should have been screened as a significance Level 3 issue because it occurred due to an inadequacy in a procedure that caused an unexpected operation or inoperability of equipment. PI-AA-120 recommends that a CAP evaluation would be the appropriate investigation to be performed for a significance Level 3 issue with a high likelihood of occurrence. PI-AA-120 states that the likelihood involves two elements, uncertainty in the cause and uncertainty regarding the corrective actions. PI-AA-120 states that uncertainty is directly related to the complexity of the event, with a more complex event (i.e. more problems), the greater the uncertainty and the need to utilize more formal analysis tools. This event presented issues in the operations, engineering, and reactivity management areas. It is due to this complexity that the inspectors concluded that a CAP evaluation was more appropriate than a WGE.

The inspectors determined that this observation was minor as it does not meet the more than minor criteria listed in NRC IMC 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening. Additionally, it is similar to example 4.m of IMC 0612 Appendix E, as a failure to implement a procedural requirement that has no safety impact.

Procedure Change PCR-18-1219 The inspectors reviewed the procedure change implemented as a corrective action resulting from the WGE. The inspectors determined that the procedure change inserted caution statements to:

• Allow enough time for pressure to stabilize after vent valves are opened. Emergency condenser pressures have the potential to oscillate as a result of 2 phase flow when the emergency condenser is being returned to standby following extended out of service periods. Consideration should be made to station an operator locally to monitor for two phase flow conditions.

• Opening the steam isolation valves too rapidly may cause water hammer, valve motion may be controlling to by using PULL TO LOCK. Wait approximately 15 minutes between initial throttling maneuvers to allow system to stabilize (Consider length of time the emergency condenser has been out of service and amount of time the pipe has had to cool.

In reviewing the likely effectiveness of these changes as corrective actions, the inspectors observed the two caution statements leave it to operating personnel to determine the instruments to monitor for two phase flow conditions, the time frame for system warm-up, and the instruments to monitor for stable system pressure. The inspectors concluded this high level guidance alone may not be effective to prevent a water hammer condition absent additional corrective actions such as engineering involvement in work planning and/or pre-job briefs to develop specific instructions. The inspectors did not identify a specific performance deficiency because the revised procedure has not been implemented.

Unresolved Item Potential Failure to Submit an 8-Hour 71153 (URI) Event Notification for a Valid Actuation Follow-up of Events and 05000220/2018001-01 of HPCI Notices of Enforcement (Closed) Discretion

Description:

On March 18, 2018, at 1:18 a.m., operators received multiple reactor water low level alarms. Operators responded by adjusting reactor water cleanup reject flow and the feedwater minimum flow control valve to raise reactor water level. Upon the operators making the adjustment to reactor water level, the feedwater low flow control valve was slow to respond, but eventually opened more rapidly, and the increased flow from feedwater resulted in a rapid rise in reactor water level. At 1:28 a.m., reactor water level rose to the 95-inch trip setpoint for the 11 and 12 Yarway level indication instruments, resulting in a turbine trip and HPCI (high pressure coolant injection) initiation signal.

The 11 and 12 Yarway level indication instruments provide higher indicated water level during shutdown conditions than the 11 and 12 GEMAC level instruments because the Yarway level indication instruments are not density compensated. Because of the discrepancy between the GEMAC and Yarway level indication instruments, operators control reactor water level by using 11 and 12 GEMAC level indication instruments, since they are density compensated.

However, because reactor protection system receives input from the 11 and 12 Yarway level indication instruments, operators keep the GEMAC level lower in the normal band. This keeps the Yarway level indication closer to the normal band, and further away from causing trip signals, should there be a reactor water level perturbation.

Operator logs indicated that following the event, it was identified that the reactor water level perturbation was caused by operators performing a tagout removal for the 12 reactor recirculation pump to restore the pump to service following maintenance. Inspectors identified during interviews that the operators in the main control room were unaware that the tagout removal was in progress, and that there was the potential for a reactor water level perturbation, as this was not pre-briefed before operators went to the field to manipulate the tagout for 12 reactor recirculation pump.

10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(A) requires submittal of an Event Notification within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> after the occurrence of, Any event or condition that results in valid actuation of any of the systems listed in paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(B) of this section except when the actuation results from and is part of a pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation. 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(B) states, The systems to which the requirement of paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(A) of this section apply are:

(5) BWR (boiling-water reactor) reactor core isolation cooling system; isolation condenser system; and feedwater coolant injection system. Thus in order to establish that a violation of 10 CFR 50.72, the inspectors must demonstrate

(1) the HPCI system is a system described in 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(B);

(2) the actuation was not part of a pre-planned sequence during testing and operations; and

(3) that the actuation was valid.

Applicable System: The HPCI system on a BWR-2 is a feedwater injection system with an automatic actuation feature. The instrumentation associated with this actuation is covered by TS 3.1.8 High Pressure Coolant Injection, and actuation is required per TS 3.6.2.k on a turbine trip in order to maintain reactor vessel water level (RVWL) since the main turbine driven 13 feedwater pump is lost and the motor driven feedwater pumps 11 and 12 are in a standby configuration. HPCI is also actuated on low-low RVWL to help mitigate a small break loss of coolant accident, however it is not credited in a safety analysis. The HPCI system is similar to the other systems described in 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(iv)(B)(5) such as reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC), which is also not safety related. There is no discussion in the statements of consideration or NUREG-1022 which would exempt this system for reportability requirements. Therefore this is an applicable system described by the regulation.

Pre-planned sequence during testing or reactor operation: NUREG-1022 states, Preplanned actuations are those that are expected to actually occur due to preplanned activities covered by procedures. Such actuations are those for which a procedural step or other appropriate documentation indicates that the specific actuation is actually expected to occur. Control room personnel are aware of the specific signal generation before its occurrence or indication in the control room. However, if, during the test or evolution, the system actuates in a way that is not part of the planned evolution, that actuation should be reported. In this case, the plant response was not part of a procedure, the plant response was not an expected response for clearing the tagout on the 12 RRP, and the operators did not appear to be standing by or monitoring for this contingency. Therefore, the actuation was not considered to be part of a preplanned sequence during testing or reactor operations.

Valid Actuation: With respect to whether the actuation was valid or invalid, the inspectors reviewed NUREG-1022 and the Federal Register Notice associated with the original 1983 rule

[48 FR 33854] states, actuation of multichannel actuation systems is defined as actuation of enough channels to complete the minimum actuation logic. NUREG-1022, Section 3.2.6, System Actuation, are those actuations that result from valid signals or from intentional manual initiation unless it is part of a preplanned test. Valid signals are those signals that are initiated in response to actual plant conditions or parameters satisfying the requirements for initiation of the safety function of the system. 48 FR 33854 states, This paragraph requires events to be reported whenever a system actuates either manually or automatically, regardless of plant status. The Commission is interested both in events where a system was needed to mitigate the consequences of an event and events where a system actuated unnecessarily.

In this case, the actuation logic was satisfied by an unexpected change in an actual plant parameter. Under most circumstances these would make the actuation valid. However, in this case, it was a known fact, that the instrumentation system was inaccurate for cold plant conditions due to the fact the Yarway RVWL instruments are not temperature compensated and are calibrated to read under hot plant conditions. Alternate instrumentation (GEMAC)was in-service and indicated that the plant parameters for system actuation at high RVWL of 95 did not exist. Therefore the actual plant parameter was not at its setpoint and the actuation was invalid. Since the HPCI system had been properly removed from service and was not required under the plant conditions, this invalid actuation would not be reportable under 10 CFR 50.72.

The following NUREG-1022 example supports this interpretation.

(1) Reactor Protection System (RPS) Actuation Exelon was placing the RHR system in its shutdown cooling mode while the plant was in hot shutdown. The BWR vessel level decreased for unknown reasons, causing RPS scram and Group III primary containment isolation signals, as designed. All control rods had been previously inserted and all Group III isolation valves had been manually isolated. Exelon isolated RHR to stop the decrease in reactor vessel level.

An event notification system (ENS) notification and LER are both required because, although the systems' safety functions had already been completed, the RPS scram and primary containment isolation signals were valid and the actuations were not part of the planned procedure.

The automatic signals were valid because they were generated from the sensor by measurement of an actual physical system parameter that was at its set point.

Corrective Action References: IR 04116336 Closure Basis: No violation of 10 CFR 50.72 exists in this case. This URI is Closed.
