2.2 Inspection Items The containment systems and components designed to mitigate the offsite release of fission prodacts were inspected for compliance with regulatory requirements. Hardware availability was evaluated to ensure that containment integrity would be maintained in the event of a severe accident. The post-LOCA mitigation systems reviewed included the following:

Containment Atmosphere Dillution (CAD) System Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Containment Spray

Standby Gas Treatment System (SGTS)

Low Pressure Coolant Injection (LPCI) Core Spray I i

,

An "As Found" and "As Built" verification walkdown inspection was conducted for selected isolation valves & containment penetrations. The objective was to verify current system lineup and valve positions, and to look for obvious indication of leakage or abnormalitie Hardware availability was evaluated based on the licensee's programs and implementation of their programs as. supported by the records, procedures, in progress activities, initiatives, and "As Found" condition The following criteria were employed to assess hardware availability:

Preventive measures to reduce equipment failure (preventive maintenance).

Prompt detection of deficiencies (surveillance and operations).

i'

Effective corrective measures and measures to prevent the recurrence of deficiencies or failures (corrective maintenance

& trendings)

Licensee's programs to verify equipment operability after maintenance, surveillance, and testing (post-maintenance testing and implementation per Generic Letter 83-28).

"As Built" and "As Found" walkdown inspection The operational readiness of the post-LOCA mitigating systems was evalurted based on the adequacy of the procedures, surveillance, and "As Found" condition. The capability of direct or indirect surveillance of the containment integrity in combination with a high degree of equipment availability improves assurance of containment integrit Technical specification surveillance testing records of post-LOCA mitigating systems were reviewed as well as station administrative procedure .3 Conduct of Inspection The inspection methodology was based on the premise that the unavailability of important plant equipment, due to either its failure to function or improper alignment, will serve as an accident contributor or the inability to sufficiently mitigate the consequences of an acciden The logic used for developing the inspection plan is presented below:

The licensee's programs must address the means to:

--

Prevent equipment deficiencies or failures;

--

Detect Deficiencies or failures promptly;

--

Correct them effectively;

'

The inspection findings indicated that the plant programs and the containment systems to mitigate fission product release in the event of a LOCA are in a high. state of. availability,- and that tha  ;

plant is caoable of monitoring continuously the containment l atmosphere and containment integrit '

Good indication of equipment availability and the demonstration of

. containment integrity is indicative of the licensee's effectiv program Surveillance and maintenance programs were adequat l Their implementation and records were consistent with the station procedure The licensee has initiated an ir.novative " predictive maintenance" program. The program, recently instituted at Peach Bottom with .the l

assistance _of a technical corsulting company, utilizes spectrum '

frequency analysis to track rnd predict component failures in safety related and other systems, and provides a feedback to preventive maintenance activities. The program which was initiated 4 months prior to the inspection has thus far analyzed 70 of 240 pumps / motors rated over 50 horsepower. Also analyzed was the HPCI system. Time series analysis was performed separately on the unit 2 and unit 3 i HPCI systems for the following equipment groups: l l

Motor operated valves i Air operated valves i

Other HPCI system valves j Fittings Each of these equipment groups were further subdivided and analyzed 3 at the component failure mode / failure cause level. The program has i resulted in a table of specific scheduled maintenance tasks for each HPCI system (units 2 and 3) based on the time series analysis results. A similar study will be conducted for other system The j goal of the maintenance department is to eventually have a guideline document that utilizes feedoack to adjust the frequency and scope of preventive maintenance activitie While conducting "as-built" verification walkdowns of unit 3  !

The licensee has initiated a proposed revision to the above document to add 4 backup N2 valves as locked-open statu No evidence of breach of containment or unavailability'of LOCA mitigating systems were found within the scope of this inspectio .0 Primary Containment Integrity-The inspectors' reviewed drawings and procedures relating to containment penetrations and post-LOCA mitigating systems. Penetration walkdowns were conducted to compare "as-built" conditions with station drawing Procedures were reviewed for technical content and the proper extent of'

administrative control of activities and record keeping. Surveillance y test. records of tests performed in accordance with plant technical

. specifications on containment related and post-LOCA mitigating systems were reviewed to ascertain system availability statu .1. Walkdown Inspection of Containment Penetrations '

A Walkdown visual inspection of the "as-built" configuration of unit 3 containment penetrations and isolation valves was conducted for both the inside and outside of the containment. This included the

on MSIV's and containment airlocks were reviewed for the past operating periods for units 2 and 3. The review objectives were to verify that the l MSIV's and containment airlocks were reliable and that failures or l deficiencies.were.promptly. corrected. The maintenance program and its l implementation were reviewed including the programmatic controls of

. post-maintenance testing per generic letter 83-28. It was found that in all cases reviewed the post maintenance testing was completed in a timely manner and that maintenance procedures and maintenance request. forms (MRF's) were properly administered .(signatures, tagouts, work descriptions completed). No unacceptable conditions were identifie .0 Administrative Control The adequacy of the licensees administrative control over activities related to containment integrity was assessed by the inspector Administrative procedures or "A" procedures were reviewed with. respect to the overall " programmatic". approach to ensuring the proper activities are

, performed which constitute containment integrity. These activities include preventive and corrective maintenance,. surveillance, hardware availability, and the proper administration and dissemination of related records, procedures, and drawings. Also, the programmatic aspects were evaluated based of the review of other inspection items. The following

. "A" procedures were reviewed by the inspectors:

The PPMP takes full advantage of existing programs and functions which monitor plant performance. The PPMP utilizes existing data collection activites (e.g., surveillance test data, in-service inspection data, and preventive maintenance data). The PPMP supplements these activities with data from those areas not currently monitored which have a significant impact on plant power output and equipment reliabilit A monthly management report is prepared and issued by the PPMP Coordinator. This report summarizes the overall performance of Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3, including a discussion of major incidents of degraded unit performance. A central file of the individual system PPMP data is also maintained by.the PPMP Coordinato Based on the comprehensive review of PBAPS "A" procedures, the plant performance monitoring program and other records, activities and procedures, it is concluded that administrative control of a programmatic nature is established and maintained at a level sufficient to significantly contribute to overall containment integrity and plant  !

' discussed training and improvement programs of the QA/QC staff. No unacceptable conditions were identifie .0 Security Inspection On the-. morning of June 5, 1987 while reporting for duty at PBAPS the inspectors.were privy to a' surprise security exercise by the' PBAPS nuclear security specialist. The surprise excercise was designed to test the ability of the guards on' duty to detect and respond to an attempt by

' unauthorized persons'to bring contraband onsite. The. guards were observed by the_ inspectors to respond.quickly and confidently to the situatio The inspectors discussed the performance of the guards with the nuclear security specialist. The nuclear security specialist indicated the guards carried out actions that were appropriate for the given situation. No deficiencies in the guards performance were note !
