and an Alert, and was thereby weak in providing opportunity for participants to develop, maintain and improve key skills as required by 10 CFR $0.47(b)(14). No specific violations of NRC requirements were identified in this instance, liowever, non credible plant indications may leave evaluators unable to evaluate the adequacy of response in certain areas and also reduce the responding organization's ability to demonstrate their capabilities. That could increase the potential for a post-exercise determination that all major elements of the emergency plan had not been adequately tested. After telephone discussions with the licensee's EP staff, scenario revisions
'
were made to simulate a Site Area Emergency. That was done by increasing containment radiation monitor readings by a factor of 1000 without the core being uncovered or clad damage sufficient to produce a gap fraction release giving rise to the containment monitor readings. Due to time considerations, further revisions to add realism were not made. The as-revised scenario was deemed adequate to meet minimum requirements for testing major portions of the Vermont Yankee Nuclear i Power Station Emergency Plan and Implementing Procedures. It also provided the opportunity for the licensee to demonstrate areas previously identified by the NRC as ;
in need of corrective hetion.110 wever, the licensee was advised that a more realistic scenario is needed to meet NRC and FEMA standards for the 1993 full-participation, ingestion pathway emergency exercis NRC observers attended a licensee briefing on September 1,1992. Changes to the scenario were discossed during the briefing. The licensee stated that certain emergency response activities would be simulated and that controllers would intercede in the exercise as necessary to prevent disrupting normal plant activitie .2 Exercise Scennrh The scenario included the following simulated events and condition * Initial (8:00 a.m.) conditions: reactor operating at steady state power for six months; a control rod drive pump was tagged out for repairs and scheduled for re'..irn to service within three hours; off-gas radiation has been increasing; and the Vernon tie line has been removed from service (return to service scheduled by early afternoon).

No exercise strengths, weaknesses, or areas for improvement were identified. The following expected actions were done wel * The TSC was promptly staffed. The transfer of Plant Emergency Director '
responsibilities from the Shift Supervisor to the TSC Coordinator (TSCC) was effective. The TSCC frequently briefed the staff on conditions, priorities, and accident mitigation. Congestion and noise were kept to a minimum, except during the period prior to TSC activation. It was observed, however, that a department manager was the primary communicator with the Operations .

The following improved areas were identifie * Areas improved since the last exercise included the use of status boards and the accountability of personnel. Accurate and timely plant parameter information was frequently ulxlated on the status boards, but meteorological data w's not observed. The use of the site access computer and prompt management involvement contributed to the timely resolution of a personnel accountability deficiency (see Detail 6.0).

Operations Support Center performance was marred by excessive simulation of activities and by non-adherence to procedures and good practice (especially in regard to selection of replacement components). The following basic requirements were involve * There were speciGc licensee written and oral instructions to controllers and players that, to demonstrate capabilities as realistically as possible, simulation of response activities was to be avoided wherever possibl * Paragraph C of Procedure Ap 0021, Work Orders, Revision 20, required initiation of an Emergency Work Order (EWO) to accomplish emergency work and to document that such work on safety-related equipment was accomplished. No exception to AP 0021 was identified as being granted, and 10 CFR 50.54(x) was not invoked to authorize deviating from or exceeding requirement Specific examples of related problems follo * Operating Emergency Procedure OE-3107, Revision 1, Appendix H, Vent the Control Rod Drive Over Piston Volume, required two auxiliary operators (AOs) to obtain the "HCU venting tools" located in the " friction testing tool bee in the reactor buildmg instrument and controls shop, along with sound powered phones for communications. A single AO proceeded directly to the area of the hydraulic control accumulators, and explained to the controller what he would do. When questioced about how he would hook up the vent hose to the withdraw riser bkxk, the AO did not identify or refer to OE-3107 but replied that he would use the vent adapter in the tool box that was up in the tool eag * The Emergency Diesel Generator "B" air stirt air 61ter differential pressure was simulated high, and the Glter was diagnosed as clogged.

Rather, a short verbal description was delivered to the controller by the on-scene mechanic concerning what he would do to accomplish the tas * No tools or other materials (e.g., ladder to reach isolation valves) were used to repair the diesel air start filter. Similarly, although a spare breaker was >
available to perform required testing during the simulated work on the residual heat removal pump breaker, the spare was not use * An Auxiliary Operator, in order to repair the diesel air start filter, simulated shutting two air receiver isolation stop valves (supply to the air filter), and opening the vent / drain valve on the filter body to depressurire the filter, lie then stated that he had been authorized by the Shift Supervisor to act as a
" human tagout" for the repositioned valves (the NRC evaluators in the control room or TSC did not observe the granting of such permission). It was nfat possible to observe the supply valves and the vent / drain valve at the same time from the AO's location. Further, Procedure AP 0140, Vermont Yankee local Control Switching Rules, Revision 16, did not provide for a " human Ggout."
- Paragraph B of Procedure AP 0806, issuance and Return of Material, Parts, and Components, Revision 7, required "all ... fields of the MPAC Stock issue Request (SIR) entry screen" to be completed (Maintenance Planning and Control Computer). The electronically prepared Warehouse issue Ticket (WIT) was then required before Stores personnel could issue any parts or material. These procedural requirements were not complied with to procure the replacement diesel air filter cartridge,
- Repair of the diesel air start filter required identification and procurement of the filter cartridge for the Dollinger air filter assembly. The repair teant memler who was responsible for this activity was unable to access and use the appropriate computer data base for approximately 35 minutes. As a consequence, a non-controlled, superseded data base (IPI database of the now defunct MAXIM computer program) was used to identify the safety-related component and initiate procurement from stores. The inability of the MPAC computer operator to find and identify the correct stock number of the diesel air start filter for an extended period indicated inadequate training of

concluded he would obtain permission from the Shift Supervisor to obtain a set of non safety,4kV breaker closing circuitry fuses, and install them in the RiiR breaker. The inspectors observed no obtaining of such permission, and no identincation to emergency response management of the intention of using non safety fuses in safety equipment. Further, review of electrica maintenance procedures found no guidance on correct selection of fuses. The
" Fuse 1.isting," a controlled document (P.B. Corbett memo dtd 1/29/91, titled Controlled Fuse Document) did not specify the type of fuses for the R11R pump breaker. Since suf0cient information was not available at the scene, this matter should have been referred to the TSC. (Note: NRC Region 1 Division of Reactor Safety inspection No. 50 271/92 81 later identified fuse replacement provisions as a violation; correction of that violation is relevant to this aspect of OSC performance, but demonstration of proper fuse and other spare parts selection capability during the next NRC-observed emergency exercise remains appropriate.)
- The foreman responsible for trouble-shooting the RiiR pump motor supply ,
breaker ordered a test of the racked-out breaker after replacement of the closing circuitry fuses. The technicians simulated wheeling the 4KV breaker to the Breaker Test Source (BTS) area, and then described to the controller in vague terms how they would perform an operational test before breaker re-installation in its cubicle. No procedure was used to perform the operational test. When questioned about the absence of a test procedure, the electrical foreman stated that such testing was within the skill of the craft, and that the least experienced technician in the crew could perform the testing Hawlessl Procedure OP-5222,4kV AC Circuit Breaker Inspection, Calibration,' and !
Testing, Revision 11, Section 6.1.4., Breaker Preliminary Operational Checks, covered the tests ordered by the foreman. It contained three pages of cautions, notes, and steps requiring specine pushbutton manipulation not easily committed to memory. Those were not routinely performed steps, and the inspector concluded that the breaker test was not a routine craft activity .
that was likely to be properly be performed without procedure us Collectively, the above items constitute a weakness in OSC conformance to instructions and procedures and a potential for inadequate plant con 0guration control in an emergency (IFI 50-271/92-19-01)
