Inspector's Comment - The inspector stated upon review of the Facility Procedure index, it appears that a procedure for Loss of Containment Integrity is lacking.

(R0 Report No. 50-289/72-18,

'

Paragraph 3.a.(3))

L_icensee Action - The licensee stated Operating Procedure #1101-3

" Containment Integrity and Access Limits" has.been revised to in-

clude loss of containment integrity.

.

,

Inspector's Comment - The inspector reviewed procedure #1101-3 and verified coverage for loss of con'tainment integrity. This

,

item is considered resolved.

j

'

I The inspector stated that upon review of Emergency Procedure

  1. 1202-07 " Loss of Boron", the following deficiencies were identi-

-

fied.

(R0 Report No. 50-289/72-18, Paragraph 3.b)

The magnitude or change of boron concentration that constitutes a.

.

an emergency condition should be indicated to ensure sufficient guidance to the~ operator in recognizing that an abnormal condi-i tion exists and to take the correction action required.

'

' g,)

Licensee Action - The licensee stated that the exact magnitude

' u or change of boron concentration is not known at present but will be determined at a later date. He further stated the pro-cedure has been revised to allow space for entry of magnitude change when determined.

Inspector's Comment - The inspector stated proc. ',ure #1103-4

" Soluble Poison Concentration Control" will be reviewed for inclusion of magnitude or change of concentration on a sub-sequent inspe; tion.

b.

The expected level change in the make up tank or pressurizer should be specified to ensure moderate dillution is recognized and corrective action taken.

Licensee's Action - The licensee agreed to revise the procedure to include specific level changes that will indicate an abnormal condition exists.

Inspector's Comment - The inspector will review procedure #1103-4

" Soluble Poison Concentration Control" for inclusion of make-up tank level on a subsequent inspection.

!

Under symptoms for loss of boron, a simple statement that

-

c.

n power level increase will indicate this condition is in-afficient. To enable the operator to recognize a particu-lar abnormal condition, specific power levels expected should be stated and the type of transient, i.e., a slow step or rapid ramp indicated.

.

Licensee's Action - The licensee reviewed and evaluated the loss of Boron with respect to power level changes expected. The licensee's conclusion is that due to design limitations, the maxi-

mum flow rate for dillution is insufficient to cause a power tran-s sient, therefore, loss of boron does not constitute an emergency

condition. Loss of boron will, therefore, be included in Operating

Procedure #1103-4 " Soluble Poison Concentration Control" and

'

=

deleted as an Emergency Procedure.

The Inspector concurred with the licensee's conclusions.'

d.

The inspector stated the use of abbre.viations within the body of a procedure should ae avoided whenever possible.

If unavcidable,

.

I system and component abbreviations when used, should be written

,,

out the first time they appear in the procedure to ensure under-d'

standing by all,

c.

Caution statements within'the body of a procedure should be cap-italized and double spaced to ensure they stand out.

t f.

Referencing other pr"--9ures should be avoided, if the information

,

is important it should t e specified in the procedure.

'

i

'

g.

Precautions should be in the body of the procedures preceeding a specific step.

,

Licensee's Action - The licensee stated all procedures have been reviewed with respect to the context of the inspector's remarks and revised as applicable.

h.

In Step 3, the statement reads, "stop all pumps", this statement is too generalized, further direction and specifics of what pumps, what valves should be given.

Licensee's Action - The licensee stated procedure #1103-4 " Soluble Poison Concentration Control" has been revised to include specific pumps and valve numbers as applicable.

In manual action step 2, it states " sample and analyze for boron concentration".

The inspector inquired as to who aamples for boron concentration and how is sample obtained.

Licensee Response - The licensee stated all auxilliary opera-tors are qualified to obtain sample water for analysis, but only day shift capabilitf for analyzing boron concentration.

,

The licensee is currently looking at the probability of pur-chasing a boron analyzing unit to have around the clock capa-bility.

  • Inspector's Comment - The inspector stated all shifte should have the capability to ascertain the concentration of boron i

present in the primary coolant water.

This item will be re-

viewed in a subsequent inspection.

The ' inspector stated that upon review of Operating Procedure

  1. 1103-6 "Reacto~ Coolant Pump. Operation", the following defi-

!

ciencies were identified.

(R0 Report No. 50-289/72-18, Para-graph 4 b)

(1)

Step 14 reads " carefully observe all parameters" without

,

listing parameters to be observed or stating values.

~)

Licensee's Action - The licensee has revised step 14 and included specific values for applicable parameters.

Inspector's Comment - The inspector reviewed procedure

,

  1. 1103-6 " Reactor Coolant Pump Operation" and verified entry of applicable parameters.

This item is considered resolved.

(2) Procedure 6.3.2.2 states, "when pump has stopped rotating and anti reverse rotation has been verified"; how does the operator know if the pump has stopped and anti reverse rotation has been verified? This indication should be in the procedure.

Licensee's Action - The licensee has revised step 6.3.2.2 to include operators zere speed switch indication for deter-mining pump stcppage and reverse rotation.

Inspector's Comment - The inspector reviewed procedure #1103-6

" Reactor Coolant Pump Operation" and verified zero speed switch indication has been included.

This item is considered resolved.

Current Procedure Review f

i The inspector reviewed the following procedures and identified

,

I deficiencies to the licensee.

The inspector's comments and j

licensee's responses are as follows:

,

f Emergency Procedure #1202-1 " Load Rejection".

a.

Inspector's Comment - The inspector stated the follow up action step 1 states, " Observe makeup, letdown and spray flow, initiate manual control if necessery to control pressurizer level and

, ')

pressure". The inspector questions the ability of the operator

,_

l to perform the above tasks without further guidance or direction.

Specific values for flows should be stated, and if incorrect,

'

operator actions should be included to restore flows to accep-table values.

If the operator is required to control levels and pressures, the procedure should include instructions as to how

,

l he is to. accomplish the required task.

Licensee's Response - The licensee agreed to revise brocedure

  1. 1202-1 " Load Rejection" to incorporate the inspector's comments.

'

b.

Emergency Procedure #1202-4 " Reactor Trip".

,

The inspector stated that all reactor trips should be listed in the symptoms section.

Manual Action st,ates, " monitor and control if necessary, the following:

,

- pressurizer /makerp tank level

- reactor coolant pressure

- reactor coolant flow

Licensee's Response - The licensee agreed to revise the identi-

'

fied maintenance procedures and include a step-by-step procedure.

Review and Approval of Facility Procedures

!

Inspector's Comment - The inspector stated Three Mile Island's admini-strative procedure #1001 " Control of Operating, Emergency, Maintenance and Surveillance Procedures", is in conflict with the requirements for final approval of facility procedures as stated in Chapter 12 of the FSAR and Section 6 of the Technical Specifications. Administrative procedure #1001 states final approval and implementation can be made by signature of either the plant superintendent or the assistant plant superin tendent.

The FSAR and proposed Technical Specifications state plant superintendent approval only.
