Harrison, Chief cf Reactor Projects Section IB Date Inspection Summary Inspection on February 5 through April 1, 1989 (Reports No. 50-254/89004(DRP); 50-265/89004(DRP)) A_reas Inspected: Routine, unannounced resident inspection of Plant Operations, Radiological Controls, Maintenance / Surveillance, Emergency Preparedness, Security, Engineering / Technical Support and Safety Assessment / Quality Verification. Additionally, the inspectors closed temporary instruction (TI) 2515/95 and reviewed TI 2515/10 Results: During the inspection period the licensee performed an unplanned maintenance outage on Unit 2 after 116 consecutive days of operation to replace two defective electromatic relief valves and to perform other maintenance activities. All planned and unscheduled maintenance was completed ahead of schedule and there were no personnel contaminations associated with the outag Overall radiological control performance during the inspection period was good; however, control rod blade cutting activities in the fuel pool did generate some radioactive specks which caused a number of personnel contamination Satisfactory performance continued to be made towards the completion of the reactor feedwater hydrogen addition and the control room heating and venti 10-tion modifications.

1 Summary of Operations l Unit 1 For the inspection period, Unit 1 operated either at full power, on Economic G9neration Control (EGC), or at reduced power in order to perform surveillance testing or in response to load dispatcher orders. As of the end of the inspection period the unit had been critical for 114 consecutive day Unit 2 Power was reduced on February 5,1989, to make a drywell entry in order to adjust the stroke time of a main steam isolation valv The reactor returned to full power operation the next day, Unit 2 operated at power until March 2,1989, when a shutdown occurred after 116 consecutive days of power operation to perform an unplanned outage to repair two defective electromatic relief valves. Other maintenance completed included repair of a malfunctioning hydrogen detector, repair of a malfunctioning safety valve tailpipe temperature detector, repair of a malfunctioning electromatic relief valve tailpipe vacuum breaker, repair of several unisolable steam leaks, and pluggirq of a leaking main condenser tube. All planned maintenance acLivities were completed and the unit was returned to power operation on March 5,1989, , 12 hours ahead of schedul Power was reduced on March 23 and 27, 1989, to investigate and repair a faulty test circuit for the number 2 turbine stop valv On both occasions the unit returned to full power the next da For the remainder of the inspection period the unit operated either at full power, on EGC, or at reduced power in order to perform surveillance testing or in response to load dispatcher order As of the end of the inspection period the unit had been critical for 28 consecutive day Onsite Followup of Events At Operating Power Reactors (93702)  !

  (1) Unit 2 Reactor Shutdown During the early morning hours of March 2, 1989, the licensee noted indications of a possible leak in the drywell. The  l licensee began reducing power and de-inerting the drywell at 8:35 AM on March 2, 1989, in preparation for an entry at power. At 1:35 PM, with power below 40% and the de-inerting complete, the licensee entered the drywell and discovered a steam leak coming from a vacuum breaker on the C electromatic relief valve discharge piping. Licensee personnel closed the vacuum breaker and stopped the leak. Steam leaking from the vacuum breaker indicated that the C electromatic relief valve was leaking. The licensee also had evidence of an elevated temperature on the discharge piping of the D electromatic

relief valve, indicating that relief valve was also leakin The licensee therefore decided to shutdown and replace both the C and D electromatic relief valves. At 9:30 PM on March 2, , 1989, the Unit 2 main generator was disconnected from the ! electrical grid, and at 2:35 PM on March 3, 1989, Unit 2 entered cold shutdow l

       ;

i (2) Unit 2 Reactor Startup At 4:05 AM on March 5, 1989, Unit 2 commenced control rod withdrawal to restart the reactor following a short unplanned maintenance outage which began on March 2, 1989. Reactor criticality occurred at 6:42 AM, and Unit 2 was connected to ; the electrical grid at 2:45 PM on March 5, 1989. The resident l inspectors monitored portions of the reactor startup from the I control roo j i Radiological Controls (71707) J Radiation Protection Controls The licensee continued to demonstrate noteworthy performance in , the area of radiological controls, except for the number of 1 personnel contaminations which occurred during the last half of l February and the first few days of March. Most of these personnel l contaminations involved radioactive specks which were generated ' during activities on the refuel floor, principally the cutting of control rod blades and associated work. The licensee installed plugs in the refuel floor openings to prevent the spread of contaminated specks from the refuel floor to the rest of the reactor building. Additionally, the entire refuel floor was designated as a contaminated area when these work activities were in progress and the potential release of contaminated particles could occur. The number of personnel contaminations was then ; significantly reduced for the remainder of Marc Personnel exposure was only slightly more than budgeted despite extensive unforeseen work ir the Unit 2 drywell to replace the electromatic relief valves and perform other maintenance activitie This low personnel exposure is indicative of strong management support for the ALARA progra No violations or deviations were note Chemistry Sampling Program During the inspection period the resident inspectors monitored the collection of water chemistry samples from the reactor recirculation and reactor water cleanup systems.

All items were satisfactorily addressed by the licensee with the exception of the seismic qualification of class 1E equipment. The licensee is currently retrieving and compiling the related documentation. This item will remain open pending final NRC revie d.

Evaluation of Licensee Self-Assessment Capability (40500)

  (1) Quality First

! During the inspection period the resident inspectors met with the supervisor of the licensee's Quality First organization to i discuss an investigation being performed by the Quality First organization at Quad Citie The investigation concerned an allegation that 3/8 inch lines in the reactor water sample system, a non-safety-related system, were welded to 1/2 inch valves without using reducing fittings. The welding code reouires that a minimum weld thickness be present to ensure that the weld junction will be satisfactor A system walkdown by Quality First personnel determined that I this condition existed in 10 locations in the reactor water ) sample system. System walkdowns, document reviews, and ) interviews with some of the personnel involved demonstrated 1 that the reactor water sample system was the only system affected. The reactor water sample system was installed prior to 1981, and at that time modifications to non-safety related , systems did not receive the level of review that is currently I in use. It could not bc determined why reducing fittings were i not use ' An analysis was performed by a licensee contractor that I determined that the omission of reducing fittings did not i pose any system integrity or safety problems. The contractor determined that sufficient weld material was used to fill the

i . gap between the outside diameter of the pipe and the inside diameter of the valve and to create a weld which satisfied the welding code thickness criteria. Hydrostatic tests performed after installation of the sample system were completed successfully, indicating that the system was structurally sound. Modifications on both safety-related and non-safety-related components are now performed in accordance with the QAP 1270 series of procedures which govern the conduct of modifications. At the time the non-safety-related reactor water sample system was modified, safety-related system modifications were under the QA program and were tightly controlled. The non-safety-related system modifications were not as tightly controlled. The current modification proceaures should ensure that errors similar to the omission of reducing f!ttings do not recur in the futur The resident inspectors walked-down the reactor water sample system and reviewed the licensee's report to verify the completeness and accuracy of the Quality First investigatio No errors or omissions were noted. A regional inspector l reviewed the contractor's analysis and found it acceptabl (2) On-Site Review Committee During the inspection period the Senior Resident Inspector attended On-Site Review Committee meetings on several occasions.
