SUBJECT:

R. E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - POST-APPROVAL SITE INSPECTION

FOR LICENSE RENEWAL - PHASE 4 INSPECTION REPORT

05000244/2019011

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On March 22, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal - Phase 4 inspection at your R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant and discussed the results of this inspection with Paul Swift, Plant Manager and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.

The NRC inspectors did not identify any finding or violation of more than minor significance.

This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal - Phase 4 inspection at R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. Findings and violations being considered in the NRCs assessment are summarized in the table below.

List of Findings and Violations

No findings were identified.

Additional Tracking Items

None.

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) 2516, Policy and Guidance for the License Renewal Inspection Program. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

- TEMPORARY INSTRUCTIONS, INFREQUENT AND ABNORMAL

===71003 - Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal

The team selected for evaluation six aging management programs. The team selection of programs was based on risk insights and programs that were enhanced or new under the renewed operating license. The team also considered for selection those programs with monitoring results that were performed for the first time or identified examination or test results not experienced in the past. The inspection performed by the team was conducted as outlined in NRC IP 71003, Phase IV. For the aging management programs selected, the team reviewed records, interviewed plant staff, and conducted plant walk downs to evaluate whether aging management program elements were being implemented in accordance with NRC requirements. The team evaluated the following elements of the aging management program:

scope, preventive actions, parameters monitored or inspected, detection of aging effects, monitoring and trending, acceptance criteria, corrective actions, confirmation process, administrative controls, and operating experience.

The following aging management programs were evaluated by the team:

Post-Approval Site Inspection for License Renewal===

(1) Flow-Accelerated Corrosion

(2) Buried Piping and Tanks Inspection

(3) Inaccessible Medium-Voltage Cables not Subject to 10 CFR 50.49 Equipment Qualification Requirements

(4) Periodic Surveillance and Preventative Maintenance

(5) ASME Section XI, Subsection IWE & IWL Inservice Inspection

(6) Structures Monitoring

INSPECTION RESULTS

No findings were identified.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.

• On March 22, 2019, the team conducted an exit meeting and presented the inspection results to Mr. Paul Swift, Plant Manager and other members of the licensee staff.
