quality control records for being properly maintained and reviewed, and parts, materials and equipment for proper certification, calibration, storage, and maintenance as applicable. The inspectors l

-

conducted frequent tours of plant facilities to search for the

existence of adverse plant conditions such as equipment malfunctions, I potential fire hazards, radiological hazards, fluid leaks, excessive vibrations, and personnel errors. The inspectors' review ensured these issues were addressed in a timely manner with sufficient and proper corrective actions and reviewed by appropriate management personne During the inspection period a detailed plant tour was performed by the Branch Chief, Section Chiefs and Senior Resident Inspectors of the Region III Division of Reactor Projects Branch 1, by three of the Licensing Project Managers of Project Directorate III-2 of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, and by the Region III coordinator in the Office of the Executive Director for Operation ho significant safety discrepancies were found, but numerous minor deficiencies were noted., These were provided to the Senior Resident Inspector, who then presented them to licensee management. The licensee has instituted corrective actions to rectify these deficiencie b. Engineered Safety Features System Walkdown (71710)

During plant tours of Units 1 and 2, the inspectors walked down some of the accessible portions of the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI), Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC), Core Spray (CS),

Residual Heat Ramoval (RHR), RHR Service Water, Standby Liquid Control (SLC) Systems, and Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) Systems. The inspectors also walked down the Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG)

and the Station Batteries. No violations or deviations were note c. Summary of Operations Unit 1 Unit 1 operated normally at the maximum power which fuel depletion would sustain (an operating status termed "coastdown"), or at reduced power in order to perform surveillance testing or respond to load dispatcher orders, until the reactor scrammed on June 29, 1989 due to a turbine trip caused by a spurious main condenser low vacuum

>-

signal (refer to paragraph 3.d.(1) of this report). Following maintenance work including replacement of the 1B recirculation pump seal, the reactor restarted on July 2, 1989, but shut down to repair a steam leak on a balance-of-plant component (refer to paragraph 3.d.(2) of this report). The reactor restarted on July 4, 1989, and oaerated normally at power in a coastdown status until July 7, 1989, w1en high down-river temperature limits established by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) restricted the reactor's power level (refer to paragraph 3.d.(3) of this report). The reactor power restrictions were removed on July 14, 1989, and the reactor operated in a coast down status for the remainder of the inspection perio _ _ - _ _

Unit 2 i

Unit 2 operated normally at full power, on Economic Generation Control (EGC), or at reduced power in order to perforu surveillance

testing or respond to load dispatcher orders, until July 7, 1989, I

when high down-river temperature limits established by the Illinois EPA restricted the reactor's power level (refer to paragraph 3.d.(3)

of'this report). The reactor power restrictions were removed on July 14, 1989, and the reactor resumed normal power operation On July 19, 1989, problems with the Core Monitorinq Code (CMC)

computer used to generate reactor power and critical heat flux limits malfunctioned (refer to paragraph 3.d.(4) of this report).

The reactor was maintained at a constant power level of 80% (650 MWe) until the malfunction was repaired on July 25, 1989. The reactor operated normally at power throughout the rest of the inspection perio d. Onsite Followup of Events at Operating Power Reactors (93702)

(1) Reactor Scram At 10:39 PM CDT on June 29, 1989, with Unit 1 at 100% power, the Unit 1 turbine tripped causing a reactor scram. Post scram actions were normal, except for a group 1 isolation (MSIV closure) which caused reactor pressure to rise resulting in an electromatic relief valve opening momentaril The group I isolation occurred because main steam header pressure dropped below the isolation setpoint pressur Immediately after the scram the licensee reset the group 1 isolation and placed the reactor in cold shutdow The cause of the June 29th turbine trip was determined to be a loose connection on the wire to the vacuum indicator 119it PS.105B on'the 901-7 panel. This loose connection would occasionally make and break electrical contact, generating a voltage spike on the vacuum indicator wire, which would in turn generate a voltage spike in the low vacuum turbine trip circuit, causing a turbine trip and reactor scram. It is suspected that this problem also caused the Unit 1 turbine trip and reactor scram which occurred on December 5, 1988. (Refer to paragraph 3.e.(1) of inspection report 50-254/88028(DRP)

and 50-265/88029(DRP)).

During the unplanned outage the licensee tightened the loose connection to PS 105B, replaced the malfunctioning seal on the 1B reactor recirculation pump, repaired the 1B reactor recirculation pump suction valve and performed other maintenance r ' vitie _ _ _ _ _ _ - - _ _ _ - - _ .

(2) Reactor Shutdown and Startup At 12:30 PM CDT on July 3, 1989, with Unit 1 at 25% power in the process of raising power following a reactor startup, the licensee discovered a steam leak on the 1A moisture separator drain tank vent line to the 1A moisture separator in the low pressure heater bay. The licensee shutdown the reactor at 10:17 PM on July 3, 1989, and entered cold shutdown at 3:50 AM on July 4, 198 During the unalanned maintenance outage the licensee repaired the steam leac on the moisture separator drain tank vent line, repacked the RCIC inboard steam supply valve and performed other minor maintenance in the drywell. At 3:49 PM CDT on July 4, 1989, the licensee began control rod withdrawal to restart Unit 1. Reactor criticality was achieved at 6:16 PM on July 4, 1989, and the main generator was synchronized to the electrical grid on July 5, 1989.,

(3) Summer Dronht Operational Restrictions Quad Cities must abide by several environmental limits imposed by the Illinois EPA concerning the effect which circulating water discharging into the Mississippi River has on river temperature. These limits are: (1) the maximum differential between up-river and down-river temperatures is not permitted to exceed 5 degrees F; (2) the maximum down-river temperature is limited to vabes which vary according to the month of the year (for the months of July and August this temperature limit is 86 degrees F), and down-river temperature is prohibited from exceeding these values for more than a total of 87 hours0.00101 days <br />0.0242 hours <br />1.438492e-4 weeks <br />3.31035e-5 months <br /> and 36 minutes in any 12 month period; (3) the down-rive. temperature is prohibited from ever exceeding the monthly temperature limit by more than 3 degrees F (for the months of July and August this temperature limit is 66 degrees F, never to exceed 89 degrees).

Because of drought conditions which existed during 1988, Quad Cities had only 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br /> remaining during the month of July '

before the time limit would be exceeded. On July 7, 1989, down-river temperature exceeded the limit for the first time in 1969. The limit was exceeded again on July 8, 9 and 10, 1989, as well. At 5:15 PM CDT on July 10, 1989, Qued Cities exceeded !

the 87 hour0.00101 days <br />0.0242 hours <br />1.438492e-4 weeks <br />3.31035e-5 months <br /> 36 minute time limit. The licensee immediately ;

reduced power on both units to 30% (250 MWe), and limited power i to this 30% value through July 13. 1989, when the Illinois EPA I granted Quad Cities an additional 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> during which the !

time-dependent temperature limit could be exceeded. This l additional time, plus cooler weather, permitted Quad Cities to !

resume normal operations on July 14, 198 l

(4) Core Monitoring Code Abnormality l

At 8:00 PM on July 19, 1989, with Unit 2 at 100% power, the reactor core thermal limits of MFLPD (maximum fraction of 5 l

D L calculated by the process computer were determined to be in ,

l- violation of-their limiting values. The licensee'promptly commenced a power reduction to 80% power.: Comparison with the-core thermal limits which were calculated 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> previousl .and found to be within. limits, and the knowledge that no plant-

.. transients, power changes, or rod shuffles had occurred, caused-the licensee to question the validity of the core thermal

'

limits which were calculated to. exceed their limiting values.

p The. licensee continued power operation of Unit '.by holding p power constant at 80% and obtaining core thermal limits from B corporate headquarters'and from. General Electric. The thermal L

'

limits so obtained were within their' limiting value :

The abnormality in the core thermal limit calculation was determined to be due to a factor of ten error in a xenon l constant for type'4 fuel in the core monitoring code. This problem was-insignificant at low fuel exposure but became more significant later in~ core life. The error was corrected, and Unit ~2 was returned to permal operaticn wit'h core thermal 111mits provided by the plant process computer on July 25, 198 (5) Loss of Service Air Compressor-On July 19, 1989, with both units operating at power, the

'2A service air compressor had to be shutdown because'it was spurting oil. The 1A service hir. compressor was out of service for maintenance. With only the 1B' service air-compressor'

operating, service air pressure began to decrease. Since the service air system was supplying the instrument air system,-

instrument air pressure'also began to' decrease. The cperating crew took action to minimize the use of service and instrument air, thereby arresting the pressure decrease, restoring service air and instrument air pressure, and preventing the possible shutdown of both units. The 1A service air compressor was subsequently returned to service and the service air;and instrument air systems returned-to normal operatio ,

(6) Degraded Reactor Recirculation Pump 2A Seal On August 10, 1989, operaticrs personnel noticed that the seal cavity pressure for the 2A reactor recirculation pump had increased from its normal value of approximately 500 psig at full power to 600 psig, indicating a degraded inner seal. The licensee promptly instituted a temporary procedure to monitor and rccord seal cavity pressure plus several other related parameters every four hours (this is the same temporary procedure as is described in paragraph 3.d.(10) in inspection report 254/89012; 265/89012). Seal degradation has been 0- gradual, and at the end of-the inspection period the seal cavity pressure has increased to 700 psig. The licensee intends to shutdown in the latter part of August to replace the degraded sea _ - - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ - _ - - - _ _ _ - _ - _ _ - _ _ _ _- .

4... Radiological Controls (71707)

The licensee continued to demonstrate noteworthy performance in the area'of radiological controls. Unanticipated maintenance activities including the replacement of the IB reactor recirculation pump seal were performed in the Unit 1 drywell wid no associated personnel contaminations. Personnel exposure was less than budgeted despite unant'cipated maintenance activities in the drywell and otner potentially high radiation areas. Several more personnel contaminations than budgeted occurred in the latter part of July, but only one personnel contamination occurred in the August portion of the reporting perio During the inspection perlod the inspectors monitored the radiological survey of the low pressure heater bay and the transfer of resin from the Unit 2 phase separator to the Unit 1 phase separator. The licensee's performance, and the attention showed by management to further reduce personnel contaminations and exposure, is indicative of strong licensee support for the ALARA progra No violations or deriations were note . Maintenance / Surveillance Monthly Maintenance Observation (62703)

Station maintenance activities of safety-related and nonsafety-related systems and components listed below were observed / reviewed to ascertain that they were conducted in accordance with approved procedures, regulatory guides and industry codes or standards and in conformance with Technical Specification The following items were considered during this review: the limiting conditions for operation were met while compor.ents or systems were removed from service; approvals were obtained prior to initiating the work; activities were accomplished using approved procedures and were inspected as applicable. Additional items reviewed included verification that functional testing and/or calibrations were performed prior to returning components or systems to service; quality control records were maintained; and activities were accomplished by qualified personnel. Also, the inspectors verified that parts and materials used were properly certified; radiological controls were implemented; ar.d fire prevention procedures were followed.

At 8:48 AM CDT on June 28, 1989, electrical power was lost to the security computers, security television cameras, security alarms,

.

and' central and secondary' alarm station consoles. The-licensee immediately initiated. compensatory me,asures, began to search for the- .!

cause of the loss of electrical power, and took action to restore l

%  : electrical power to the' security equipment.: At 9:32 AM the NRC' '

7 ~ Emergency Operations Center was notified, and at 10:04 AM electrical-power was restored to the. security equipment.

'

The cause of the loss of electrical power to-the security equipment l l was the opening of the wrong circuit breaker while tagging out the '!

During the inspection period the inspectors monitored the installation of the replacement piping for,the 2B RHR service water q discharge pipe. The only problem noted was the apparent inadequate support of compressed gas cylinders. . Several compressed gas-l cylinders were found to be held in their upright position by wire, .

I while several others at other plant locations were found to be held u l- in their upright position by rope. Both the rope and wire method !

of. supporting compressed gas cylinders appear to violate the rules for the control of compressed gas cylinders stated in the Flammable l- and Combustible Material Control procedure QAP 1700-1. These I

apparent deficiencies were brought to the licensee's attention and i correcte Feedwater Hydrogen Addition

~ Neutron Radioassay Testing of the Unit 1<High 1 Density Fuel Racks >

The Licensing Project Manager for Quad Cities (an inspector fro 'i-NRC headquarters) monitored a portion of the neutron radioassay test of the. Unit 1.high-density fuel. racks (HDFRs) which was performed by~the National Nuclea_r Corporation to determine the extend of Boraflex' degradation and gap growth ~.

-Neutron ~ attenuation tests (both the Standard and Special Test Methods) of the Boraflex-lining in Unit-1 HDFRs, as observed, was aerformed in a deliberate and controlled manner by experienced and knowledgeable personnel. .Compliante with-the unique test

' procedure instructions and radiological controls was deemed-acceptable. The overa11' testing evolution was. accomplished consistent with previous licensee commitments. ' Appropriate Precautions were-taken!(i.e. redistribution of spent fuel in

,

adjacent discharge racks) at the onset to preclude any potential-inadvertent criticality problems considering' introduction of ' Californium neutron source into the spent fuel pi The licensee is working in conjunction with the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) to develop an industry data base on-

~

performance of Boraflex in HDFRs. _ Based upon the results of the

analyzed test data gathered by the licensee and EPRI, gap grov:th

.versus exposure will be trended and evaluated to determine the validity of the " Gap Growth Nodel" as a bounding assumption for the spent fuel pit criticality analyses. This will allow.for-continued verification of Technical Specification 5.5.B ( less'than .95 Keff) compliance and reassessment of the surveillance-program testing intervals (presently conducted after each refuelina cycle).- The aforementioned results and data will be completed in'  ;

several months. =The NRC' plans to review this information with the licensee at that time. ' ~

d.- Requalification Training During the inspection period the inspectors monitored two separate qualification training exercises: a simulated fire in the cable spreading room on June 29, 1989, and a simulated plant shutdown from outside the control room vn July 11, 1989. Both training exercises were realistic, well-controlled by licensee training personnel, and beneficial for the participant Configuration Control During the course of the inspection the inspectors noted several deficiencies in plant' drawings and several mislabeled valve Until the extent and safety significance of these deficiencies is determined, these deficiencies will be treated as an unresolved item (254/89016-01(DRP); 265/89016-01(DRP)).
