INSPECTION RESULTS
Failure to Prescribe Appropriate Procedures for Auxiliary Building Crane Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV NCV 05000282,05000306/2024003-01 Open/Closed Not Applicable 60855 A self-revealed Severity Level IV Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of the Title 10 of Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 72.150, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, was identified when the licensee failed to maintain adequate procedures for maintaining the auxiliary building overhead crane and for responding to malfunctions of the crane.
Description:
On May 21, 2024, the licensee was removing a loaded spent fuel storage cask from the spent fuel pool during their dry fuel loading campaign. After the cask exited the pool, the auxiliary building crane's band brake engaged, and all crane motion was stopped. The licensee began troubleshooting to identify the cause of the stopped crane.
The TN-40 cask TS surveillance requirement 3.1.2.1 required that a helium environment be established in the cask within 34 hours3.935185e-4 days <br />0.00944 hours <br />5.621693e-5 weeks <br />1.2937e-5 months <br /> after commencing cask draining. When the crane stopped, the cask was in a drained, air-filled condition and did not have a means of forced cooling. The licensee performed an evaluation to demonstrate that the cask could remain in its condition for 44 hours5.092593e-4 days <br />0.0122 hours <br />7.275132e-5 weeks <br />1.6742e-5 months <br /> before exceeding the long-term storage temperature limits of the fuel. The licensee entered TS condition 3.1.2.A, Cask initial helium backfill pressure limit not met.
Contingency procedure D95.8 Auxiliary Building Crane Malfunction with a Loaded Cask, noted the 34-hour requirement to establish a helium environment and directed the user to D58.5.6, Auxiliary Building Crane Main Hoist Troubleshooting. The troubleshooting procedure included steps to perform emergency load lowering of a suspended cask and stated that a separate work request would be needed. The licensee drafted a separate work request to lower the cask, but there was not an existing procedure that included all the required actions. Specifically, the licensee needed to prepare the cask to go back into the pool by sealing the lid, attaching hoses to the cask, maintaining pool level, and refilling the cask. The licensee needed to create a new work instruction by combining steps from multiple procedures.
The licensee drafted the new work instruction, and on May 22 the licensee used the emergency lowering procedure to return the cask to the spent fuel pool. Cooling to the cask was initiated 44 hours5.092593e-4 days <br />0.0122 hours <br />7.275132e-5 weeks <br />1.6742e-5 months <br /> after draining had commenced. The inspectors determined that the licensee lacked appropriate contingency procedures because the existing work instructions were not comprehensive enough to allow cooling to be restored to the cask within the 34-hour surveillance time. This is the first example of inadequate procedures.
During subsequent troubleshooting of the auxiliary building crane, the licensee identified that the energy absorbing torque limiter (EATL) torque setting was lower than expected. The EATL acts as a mechanical overload limiter and engages the emergency brake if it senses an overload condition. The licensee had adjusted the EATL torque setting prior to the loading campaign during their last periodic inspection. As part of troubleshooting, the licensee and their crane vendor and licensee determined that the EATL was not properly lubricated during the inspection. Inadequate lubrication can cause measurements of the EATL torque setting to read higher than the actual setting. This caused the EATL's newly adjusted torque setting to be lower than what it was measured as.
The inspectors noted that PM 3160-3, Auxiliary Building Crane Periodic Mechanical Maintenance, did not have any steps that required lubricating the EATL prior to checking the setting or changing the setting. The licensee revised the procedure and reset and verified the torque setting on the EATL on June 20, 2024. The inspectors determined that the maintenance procedure for checking and setting the EATL was inadequate because it did not require the EATL to be lubricated which resulted in an erroneous reading. This was the second example of inadequate procedures.
Corrective Actions: The licensee created Work Plan 700129508-0180 Release Band Brake, in order to successfully lower the suspended load while taking into account all nuclear and industrial safety precautions and vendor recommendations. The licensee also revised procedure PM 3160-3, Auxiliary Building Crane Periodic Mechanical Maintenance, in order to ensure that the EATL is properly lubricated prior to testing the torque setting.
Corrective Action References: 501000085675 and 501000085766
Performance Assessment:
None
Enforcement:
The ROP's significance determination process does not specifically consider violations associated with Independent spent fuel storage installations under 10 CFR Part 72.
Therefore, it is necessary to address this violation which involves 10 CFR Part 72 requirements using traditional enforcement.
Violation: Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 72, Section 150, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, requires, in part, that the licensee shall prescribe activities affecting quality by documented procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall require that these procedures be followed.
Contrary to the above, until June 20, 2024, the licensee failed to prescribe activities affecting quality by documented procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstance. Specifically, the licensees procedure for setting the torque setting on the auxiliary building crane EATL was inadequate to ensure that the setting was in the correct band for the crane to be able to lift and move a loaded cask. Additionally, the licensees contingency procedure for a crane failure did not provide adequate guidance to perform emergency lowering of the load in a timely manner in order to prevent exceeding the 34-hour TS time to add helium to a loaded spent fuel cask.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

[H.14] -
Conservative Bias 71111.15 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR 50.55(a)(1)(iv)when the licensee failed to perform required inservice testing (IST) on safety related cooling water valves. Specifically, the licensee failed to test two safety related cooling water (CL)valves in accordance with the ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (O&M) code, Section ISTC-3510, Exercising Test Frequency.
Description:
On January 2, 2024, during the performance of the quarterly IST of the cooling water system, MV-32038 had dual indication when stroked to the closed position. The valve was re-stroked per the governing procedure, and then indicated shut, and the quarterly test was completed satisfactorily.
On March 9, 2024, during the next quarterly IST test, MV-32038 again had dual indication when stroking the valve closed. However, when the valve was re-stroked, it continued to have dual indication, and the test result was unsatisfactory.
On April 25, 2024, the quarterly test was re-attempted with additional steps added to adjust the limit switch on the valve. However, it was discovered that MV-32038 was degraded and was in fact not closing completely. On April 27, 2024, Operations made the decision to move on with the test for the remainder of the cooling water system valves due to the upcoming late date for completing the test. Operations completed the quarterly test of the cooling water system except for MV-32028, and the two cross connect valves immediately upstream, MV-32322 and MV-32329. These three valves were declared IST Inoperable.
Inspectors questioned the lack of testing for all of the required valves and compliance with the ASME O&M Code requirements. On May 8, 2024, additional diagnostic testing was performed on MV-32028 which determined that the valve could not meet its safety function, and the valve was declared to be inoperable per TS as well as IST, although the cooling water system itself remained operable. Based upon questions from the inspectors, the licensee performed the required IST testing of MV-32322 and MV-32329 on June 1, 2024, restoring operability and compliance with the ASME O&M Code requirements.
Corrective Actions: The licensee declared the valves IST inoperable and entered the issue into their CAP for resolution. The two cooling water cross connect valves were tested and returned to service on June 2, 2024.

Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the failure to complete the required IST testing was with the ability of the licensee to foresee and correct and is therefore a performance deficiency. Specifically, on April 27, 2024, the licensee chose to not complete the required IST testing of MV-32322 and MV-32329.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. This issue was similar to example 2.a in IMC 0612 Appendix E - Example of Minor Issues, and was therefore screened to More Than Minor (MTM).
Specifically, the licensee's failure to complete the required IST testing of the safety related cooling water valves (MV-32322 and MV-32329) resulted in the inoperability and unavailability of the valves to perform their safety function and reduced the reliability of the safety related cooling water system, threatening the operability of the system.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power.
Inspector assessed the significance of the issue using IMC 0609 Appendix A, Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions Section A. Mitigating SSCs and PRA Functionality (except Reactivity Control Systems) and determined the issue screened to Green by answering No to all of the screening questions.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.14 - Conservative Bias: Individuals use decision making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. The inspectors determined that the decision to not test the safety related cooling water valves was, in part, due to a lack of conservative bias.
Enforcement:
Violation: The NRC regulations in 10 CFR 50.55a specify
- (a) Documents approved for incorporation by reference. The material listed in this paragraph
- (a) is incorporated by reference into this section with the approval of the Director of the Federal Register under 5 U.S.C. 552(a) 1 CFR part 51. Further, paragraph (a)(1)(iv) specifies ASME Operation and Maintenance Code. The editions and addenda for the ASME Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants are listed in this paragraph. The Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (PINGP) is currently required by 10 CFR 50.55a to implement the IST requirements in the 2004 Edition through the 2006 Addenda of the ASME O&M Code with applicable conditions. The PINGP describes the implementation in plant procedure H10.1, Inservice Inspection Program.
The 2004 Edition of the ASME OM Code, Subsection ISTC, Inservice Testing of Valves in Light-Water Reactor Nuclear Power Plants, paragraph ISTC-3510, Exercising Test Frequency, specifies in part that, Active Category A, Category B, and Category C check valves shall be exercised nominally every 3 months, Contrary to the above, from April 28, 2024 thru June 2, 2024, the licensee failed to exercise active Category 'B' valves within their nominal 3 month (+25%) interval. Specifically, the licensee failed to perform the required quarterly inservice tests of valves MV-32322 and MV-32329 in accordance with the ASME O&M Code, ISTC-3510 as incorporated by reference in 10 CFR 50.55a.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Violation of Technical Specification Limiting Condition of Operation 3.0.3 Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems Green NCV 05000282,05000306/2024003-03 Open/Closed
[H.12] - Avoid Complacency 71111.15 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of Technical Specification (TS)
Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.0.3 when the licensee failed to recognize the need to enter the LCO and complete the required ACTION statement. Specifically, the licensee failed to enter TS LCO 3.0.3 and secure movement of irradiated fuel upon the inoperability of the second train of the Auxiliary Building Special Ventilation System (ABSVS).
Description:
While performing a licensing basis review for the 1{2}R-37 and 1{2}R-30 radiation monitors in December of 2023, the licensee identified vulnerabilities associated with TS 3.7.12 ABSVS.
TS 3.7.12 specifies that two trains of ABSVS are required to be operable during Modes 1, 2, 3, 4, or during the movement of irradiated fuel. The radiation monitors have a safety related function and are credited during a fuel handling accident (FHA) for initiating ABSVS on a high radiation signal, which secures auxiliary building normal ventilation system (ABNVS),preventing an unfiltered release to the environment and minimizing the dose to control room personnel. If any one of the four radiation monitors is inoperable, it causes the ABSVS for that train to become inoperable. The licensee entered the results of the licensing basis review into the corrective action program (CAP) on December 12, 2023. Actions were taken to perform a past operability review (POR) and to make revisions to the procedures.
Subsequently, during the dry cask storage campaign, the licensee handled fuel several times between April 23, 2024, and May 20, 2024. On July 11, 2024 the licensee initiated two CAP documents to address a potential issue of 1R-37 being out of service during movement of irradiated fuel and to perform a POR to determine if there were any instances of past inoperability of ABSVS.
On July 26, 2024, the licensee completed the POR and determined that ABSVS had been Operable the entire time, even during movement of irradiated fuel, and thus no concerns were identified. Based upon a review of the source documents, the inspectors challenged this determination. Subsequent to the Inspectors questions, on August 20, 2024, the licensee revised the POR and identified several instances during movement of irradiated fuel where the radiation monitors were inoperable, causing respective trains of ABSVS to be inoperable, subsequently Technical Specification LCO 3.7.12 Conditions and Action statements did apply. In most instances fuel moves were completed within the allowed ACTION time.
However, the licensee identified one instance, on May 2, 2024, from 1252 until 1325, where both trains of ABSVS were inoperable. This condition is not allowed by TS and required entry into TS LCO 3.0.3 which specifies, When an LCO is not met and the associated ACTIONS are not met, an associated ACTION is not provided, or if directed by the associated ACTIONS, the unit shall be placed in a MODE or other specified condition in which the LCO is not applicable.
During their reportability review, the licensee determined the following: There are no conditions in 3.7.12 that apply to two trains of ABSVS being inoperable during movement of irradiated fuel assemblies due to radiation monitors out of service. With no applicable condition in Tech Spec 3.7.12, entry into LCO 3.0.3 would have been required since LCO 3.0.3 establishes the actions that must be implemented when the LCO is not met, and the associated action is not provided. This guidance can be used when there are no conditions that apply. LCO 3.0.3 states that the unit shall be placed in a MODE or other specified condition in which the LCO is not applicable. A timeline is established in LCO 3.0.3 to shut down the impacted unit. However, since the applicability of the LCO is movement of irradiated fuel, a unit shutdown would not provide appropriate remedial measures. The required action in this case would be to suspend the movement of irradiated fuel assemblies.
Corrective Actions: The licensee has entered this issue into their CAP program, revised their TS basis document, and revised their fuel handling procedures to provide clearer guidance.
Corrective Action References: 501000079970, "TS 3.7.12 FHA Issues" 501000084008, "Evaluate Tech Spec Bases LCO 3.7.12" 501000085931, "CAP Closed with Action Not Performed" 501000085922, "TS 3.7.12 Missing in Fuel Handling Procedure" 501000087599, "1R-37 OOS Impacts to TS 3.7.12"
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the failure to comply with TS LCO 3.0.3 requirements was within the ability of the licensee to foresee and correct and was therefore a performance deficiency.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, movement of irradiated fuel was conducted with both trains of ABSVS inoperable, preventing automatic isolation of ABNV in the event of a high radiation signal. In addition, the review of IMC 0612, Appendix E - Example of Minor Issues found example 3.d to be similar and that the specifics of this issue resulted in a more than minor determination.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power.
Inspectors answered all the questions in Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, as NO; therefore, the issue screened to Green.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.12 - Avoid Complacency: Individuals recognize and plan for the possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful outcomes. Individuals implement appropriate error reduction tools. The inspectors determined the licensees failure to evaluate the impact of the inoperable radiation monitors was due to complacency. The potential impact of the radiation monitors on the ability to meet TS LCO 3.7.12 was a known issue that had previously been entered into the CAP approximately 6 months prior to the event.
Enforcement:
Violation: TS LCO 3.7.12 requires that while the plant is in Modes 1, 2, 3, 4, or during the movement of irradiated fuel, two ABSVS trains shall be OPERABLE.
TS LCO 3.0.3 requires, in part, that, When an LCO is not met and the associated ACTIONS are not met, an associated ACTION is not provided, or if directed by the associated ACTIONS, the unit shall be placed in a MODE or other specified condition in which the LCO is not applicable.
Contrary to the above, between 1252 and 1325 on May 2, 2024, during the handling of irradiated fuel, both trains of ABSVS were inoperable, in that one 'A' train and one 'B' train radiation monitors were inoperable, thereby inhibiting the high radiation initiation signal of each train of the ABSVS. With the LCO not met and an associated ACTION not provided, the licensee failed to place the unit in a MODE or other specified condition in which the LCO is not applicable. Specifically, with both trains of ABSVS inoperable, the licensee failed to take action to place the unit in a MODE in which TS LCO 3.7.12 did not apply, by securing movement of irradiated fuel.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Observation: Follow-up of 11 Cooling Water Strainer Backflush Control Valve Code Non-Compliance 71152A On March 8, 2023, the 11 CL strainer backflush valve, CV-31652, was declared ASME O&M Code (Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants) inoperable due to inability to meet the Inservice Testing (IST) limiting stroke time (LST) of 2.0 seconds. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP.
On April 7, 2023, a CAP was written in response to an NRC-identified minor violation received for returning CV-31652 to service without first completing repair, replacement, or analysis and identification of the cause of the deviation.
Condition Evaluation (CE) 500000323341 stated in part, To meet the code requirement, CV-31652 needs to be repaired replaced or evaluated. Work Order 700121181 was generated to replace the control valve and is being tracked.
The final corrective action was replacement of the CV-31652 solenoid valve on June 13, 2023. Following replacement, the open stroke time for CV-31652 returned to baseline and was restored to compliance below the limiting stroke time in the IST program.
The work order completion notes stated the internal rubber material was degrading on the solenoid valve. Subsequently the licensee increased the replacement frequency for similar components to address the extent of condition in that valve group. In addition, the frequency of testing was increased from quarterly to monthly to rapidly detect changes in the stroke time.
Corrective actions planned include changing the H10.1 ASME Inservice Testing Program, procedure to provide additional instructions and add clarity. Also, the site created an action to determine if there was a trend in IST non-conformances.
Inspectors determined that the licensee's actions were adequate to restore compliance with the OM Code and addressed the minor violation.
The inspectors concluded that no more than minor findings or violations were identified during this review.
Observation: Follow-up of Loss of CT-11 Offsite Power Source to Bus 16 71152A Inspectors reviewed the issue of loss of CT 11 power source to bus 16 as a follow-up PIR item. On October 17, 2023, at 0147 with Unit 2 off line and Unit 1 at full power, vendor personnel were performing procedure PE-2RS-X-Y, Transformer 2RS Relay Testing. Maintenance personnel incorrectly positioned a switch in the substation, which caused the loss of power to bus 16. The load sequencer automatically selected the alternate offsite power source to re-energize bus 16. The licensee entered the associated TS LCO, updated the probabilistic risk analysis (PRA) online risk monitor, and restored the tripped source within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. The licensee entered the issue into the CAP as QIM 501000077842, Loss of CT-11 Due to 1H4 Trip.
Corrective actions taken included Transmission and Distribution, maintenance, and operations groups reviewed high risk plans and verified temporary barriers were in place, including additional oversight, prior to commencing work. In addition, paired observations to ensure HU tools were implemented in accordance with site standards and department reviews of hard match and peer check standards were completed at the beginning of shift meetings.
Inspectors assessed the licensee's CAP performance and determined that the actions taken or planned were adequate to address the CAQ.
The inspectors concluded that no more than minor findings or violations were identified during this review.
