EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Fort Calhoun Station NRC Inspection Report 50-285/98-10 Ooerations
.
Operations personnel demonstrated good communication, coordination, and control of activ%es -furing initiation of a Technical Specification required plant shutdow E.pocially notable were the licensee's plan to commence the required plant shutdown and contir "qcy plans for quicker power redtoctions if Diesel Generator 1 could not be declared operaiAe (Section 04.1).
Maintenance
The licensee identified six areas of pitting corrosion in the fire protection system piping since July of 1997. The inspectors verified that identified leaks were documented and either repaired or scheduled for repair (Section M2.1).
Enaineerinu
-
The postaccident sampling system accident sequence was inoperable for approximately 2 weeks. The licensee continued troubleshooting efforts to identify whether an obstruction existed between the postaccident sampiing system and the waste disposal system (Section E1.1).
Plant Sucoort
.
Licensee personnel were knowledgeable of the requirements of their radiation work permits. Radiological conditions had been properly posted throughout the radiological!!y controlled areas. Workers and radiation protection personnel were observed to be obeying a9 administrative and regulatory requirements (Section R1.1).
An auxiliary operator entered a high radiation area without dosimetry required by Technical Specification 5.11.1. The cause of the violation (50-285/9810-02) was a lack
. of self-checking by an auxiliary operator to ensure proper dosimetry was obtained prior to entering the radiologically controlled area. The licenses took appropriate corrective actions to address this issue; therefore, it was treated as a noncited violation, as allowed by Section Vll.B.1 of the Enforcement Policy (Section R8.1).
-
The licensee was self-critical in the identification of areas for improvement and performance issues during an emergency planning training exercise.. These items included obtaining assistance from the technical support center and operations support l center personnel earlier in the event and operator confusion due to the setup of the
simtslator prior to initiation of the exercise. The exercise provided valuable training for emergency response personnel (Section PS.1).

l-l Reoort Details Summarv of Plant Status The plant began this inspection period in an extended refueling outage. The outage was i extended due to difficulty in performing a modification to the shutdown cooling isolation valve Also, testing of the steam-driven auxiliary feedwater pump resulted in an overspeed condition and overpressurization of the auxiliary feedwater piping. This required a modification of the control circuit to ensure that overpressurization of the auxiliary feedwater piping could not occu On June 4,1998, the licensee closed the main generator output breaker to end Refueling

On June 18,1998, the inspectors observed operations personnel perform the necessary functions to begin a plant shutdown required by Technical Specification Observations and Findinos At approximately 4:30 a. m., operations personnel tagged out Diesel Generator 1 for preplanned maintenance. Following shift turnover at 6 a.m., the oncoming operations crew observed that the control room air conditioning did not appear to be cooling properly. Control room temperature was 77'F with the temperature normally maintained at approximately 68'F. At 6:40 a.m. , operations personnel determined that the control (
room Air Conditioning Unit VA-46B was inoperable, due to failure to properly cool the {
'
control room. Control room heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment is considered to be safety-related equipment. Control room Air Conditioning Unit VA-46B was normally powered from Vital Bus 1 A4 with Diesel Generator 2 as a backup power supply. The Technical Specifications allowed one diesel generator to be inoperable as long as all safety-related equipment that utilizes the remaining diesel generator as a backup power supply is operable. Technical Specification interpretation 96-13-01 stated that a system could be considered operable without its normal or emergency power I source available, but not both, if all of its redundant systems, subsystems, trains, components, and devices are operable. With Diesel Generator 1 out of service, and Control Room Air Cond;tioning Unit VA-46B considered inoperablo, Control Room Air Conditioning Unit VA-46A was considered inoperable due to the unavailability of its backup power supply, Diesel Generator 1, and the inoperability of the redundant train, Control Room Air Conditioning Unit VA-468. With both control room air conditioning units inoperable, this placed the plant in Technical Specification 2.0.1, which required the plant to be in Hot Shutdown within 6 hour6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> The licensee took the following actions: !
. Immediately began the process to restore Diesel Generator 1 to operable status;
- At 6:40 a.m., notified the NRC operations office of a Technical Specification required shutdown;
- At 8:15 a.m., made a second addition of boric acid to further reduce power; i

At 8:28 a.m., declared Diesel Generator Number 1 operable following starting of the diesel to ensure o;erability; and
.
Terminated the required Technical Specification shutdow The inspectors observed the above activities and considered them to be accomplished in a controlled and professional manner. Good communication was observed between the licensed senior operator and the shift manager in coordinating the required shutdown and also communicating with maintenance to restore Diesel Generator 1. Also, good communication and control of activities were observed during the performance of the surveillance required to declare the diesel generator operable and with regard to the efforts of the reactor engineer to provide guidance necessary for the power reductio Especially notable was the licensee's plan to commence the required shutdown with additional contingencies planned for quicker power reduction assuming the diesel could i not be declared operable by 8:40 Conclusions I

08.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Reoort (LER) 50-285/97-003: manual reactor trip due to a l steam line rupture. In April 1997, with the plant operating at 100 percent power, a !
section of the high pressure turbine fourth stage extraction steam hne ruptured at a large radius elbow, resulting in the control' room operators manually tripping the reacto Several secondary systems in the turbine building were damaged, safety-related systems functioned as required, and the reactor was safely shut down. Issues related to this event were cited in a Notice of Violation issued with NRC Inspection Report 50 285/97-0 I
i The physical cause of the steam extraction line rupture was flow accelerated corrosion.
l It was datermined that over-reliance was plar,ed on one factor, that wear rates for sweeps are typically low, consequently omitting the failed site from previous inspection Consideration of other factors (e.g., industry experience / industry practice) would have resulted in selection of the taWed site for inspection The inspectors verified that the corrective actions, including replacing the affected piping, inspecting / replacing additional piping as needed, and upgrading the erosion corrosion program, were complet _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ -

The preventive maintenance order will be revised to include 2.5-inch piping in the 6-month walkdowns due to recent leakage identified in 2.5-inch piping; and
.
Based on the recent determination of two leaks in the plant air compressor room documented in Condition Reports 199800879 and 19980128, monthly inspections for leaks in critical areas of the plant are being conducte The inspectors discussed the schedule for repairing the identified leaks with the fire protection engineer. The fire protection system engineer stated that the six leaks cunently identified were scheduled to be repaired during the week of July 27,1998. The inspectors verified that maintenance work requests had been initiated for these work activitie {
The inspectors also reviewed Engineering Analysis EA-FC-96-009, " Critical Flaw Lengths for Rupture in Fire Protection Piping," dated February 27,1996. This analysis concluded that the observed pitting will only result in piping leakage and that no pipe ruptures are possible by a zipper effect of connecting pit Conclusions The licensee identified six areas of pitung corrosion in the fire protection system piping since July of 1997. The inspectors verified that identified leaks were documented and either repaired or scheduled for repai M8 Miscellaneous Maintenance issues (92902)

The inspectors reviewed the circumstances surrounding a body-to-bonnet leak on the reactor coolant drain tank pump outlet valve during troubleshooting on the postaccident sampling system accident sequenc Observations and Findinos On June 19,1998, a chemistry technician performed a scheduled preventive maintenance order to obtain an accident mode, diluted, grab sample from the postaccident sampling system. The result of the sample analysis was 162 parts per million of boron as compared to approximately 1100 parts per million boron from the latest reactor coolant system sample. System engineering personnel then directed chemistry to seperform the sequence and the result of the second sample was 20 parts per million boron. The accident sequence of the postaccident system was then declared inoperable and troubleshooting activities began to determine why such low boron levels were being obtained. During the troubleshooting activities, the postaccident sampling system accident sequence was performed several times in an attempt to identify the ;
proble On June 25, during troubleshooting an auxiliary building operator identified a body-to-bonnet leak on reactor coolant drain tank discharge Valva HCV-500A. This was one of the valves in the postaccident sampling system sequence. The licensee then formed an event investigation team to evalcate whether the waste disposal system i piping was overpressurized. The reactor coolant drain tank discharge valve was repaired and design engineering personnel performed an analysis which determined that the pressure the waste disposal piping was exposed to was within design limit precsure j The analysis was reviewed by the inspectors on July 1,199 The event investigation team concluded that either the postaccident sampling system return valve to reactor coolant drain tank Inlet Valve HCV-6743 did not open as required )
or the line going to the reactor coolant drain tank from the postaccident sampling system )
was obstructed. The investigation team also recommended that the liquid accident mode soquences of the postaccident sampling sysem not be performed until pressure protection was installed between the portaccident sampling system and the waste disposal syste At the end of this inspection period, the licensee was continuing efforts to det9rmine whether the postaccident sampling system piping to the reactor coolant drain tank was l

obstructed. In additicn, an action plan was being developed for installation of pressure protection between the postaccident sampling system and the waste disposal system and future testing to ensure operability of the postaccident sampling system accident sequence. This will be an inspection followup item (50-285/9810-01). Conclusions The postaccident sampling system accident sequence was inoperable for approximately 2 weeks. The licensee continued troubleshooting efforts to identify whether an obstruction existed between the pastaccident sampling system and the waste disposal syste IV. Plant Support R1 Rad!ologica!

I R8 Miscellaneous Radiological Protection and Chemistry issues R8.1 (Closed) LER 50-285/97-005: improper entry into a high radiation area. On May 30, 1997, an auxiliary building operator signed in on Radiation Work Permit 97-002, which details requirements for routine aaxi!!ary building operations. The auxiliary building operator then obtained an aLNGR, which is a integrating alarming dosimeter required for entry into the radiologically controlled area. The auxiliary operator then relieved the ,
offgoing auxiliary operator and proceeded to perform routine auxiliary building operation Approximately 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> into the shift the auxiliary building operator was relieved so that a offsite requalification physical could be obtained. The auxiliary building operator signed out of Radiation Work Permit 97-002 and returned the ALNOR to its charging rac Upon returning to the plant site following the physical, the auxiliary operator received a I turnover and resumed auxiliary building operator duties. At approximately 1 p.m. the auxiliary operator entered the radiologically controlled area, not realizing he had failed to re-sign Radiation Work Permit 97-002 and obtain an ALNOR. During performance of auxiliary building duties, the auxiliary building operator entered the charging pump valve room to assist in the performance of waste holdup tank level instrument flushes. The charging pump valve room was designated as a high radiation area. After approximately
'
10 minutes in the charging pump vdve room, the auxiliary building operator attempted to check his dose on the ALNOR and rsalized that he had failed to sign in on a radiation work permit and was without an ALNOR. The auxiliary building operator immediately i I
exited the high radiation area and informed the shift radiation technician and the shift manager of the situation. The auxiliary building operators estimated dose for the entry was 5 millire The licensee performed the following corrective actions:
. A memorandum was issued by the operations manager to all operations personnel on radiation controlled area entry requirements and expectations for frequently checking dosimetry; )
\
. Tiw event was discussed with plant staff during human performaN,e day 1 l
June 11,1997, and
. The individual involved was counts led regarding the importance of self-checking l to ensure radiation requirements are me !
The inspectors concluded that the licennee's corrective actions had been appropriat Failure to comply with Technical Specification 5.11.1 requirement for entry into a high radiation area is a violation. This nonrepetitive, licensee-identified and corrected violation 's be .g treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section Vll.B.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (50-285/9810-02).

In addition, the inspectors attended the critique of the training drill and discussed personnel performance with the operations supervisor, Observations and Findinas On June 25,1998, the licensee performed an EP training exercise. The primary focus of the training exercise was in the following three areas: ;
i
. Communications, both two-way and three-way, focused on operations personnel; l
. Dispatching of operations support center personnel in a timely manner to perform j work; and l
. Demonstration of the ability to conduct facility briefings in a timely manne The licensee identified good performance in the areas of operations personnel communications, operations support center personnel response time, and operations l personnel briefings. The licensee identified an area for improvement in that the contro! l room should have requested more involvement from the technical support center and operations support center personnel earlier in the e ent. Nso, setup of the simulator prior to the initiation of the exercise was somewhat .,onfusing to the operations personnel. The emergency planning personnel agreed that this needed improvemen Conclusions The licensee was self-critical in the identification of areas for improvement and performance issues during an emergency planning training exercise. These items included obtaining assistance frorG the technical support center and operations support center per=onnel earlier in the event and operator confusion due to the setup of the simulater prior to initiation of the exercise.
