Exit Interview The inspector met with licensee representatives (denoted in paragraph 1)

at the conclusion of the inspection on March 6, 1987.

During this

.

meeting, the inspector summarized the scope and findings of the inspection l

as they are detailed in this report with particular attention on the

'

Unresolved Items (UNR) and Inspector Followup Items (IFI).

l l

The licensee representatives acknowledged the inspector's comments and did l

not identify as proprietary any of the materials provided to or reviewed l

by the inspectors during this inspection.

Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Items I

(Closed) IFI 302/86-14-03:

The licensee has revised procedure SP-523 (revision 17, dated September 18, 1986) to include a place to record the final battery bank voltages.

(Closed) IFI 302/86-23-04: The licensee has issued revision 3 to drawing FD-302-285, Lube Oil System for the Emergency Diesel Generators, to delete valves DLV-1 and DLV-2.

(Closed) IFI 302/86-23-10: The licensee has added the Woodward governor on EFTB-1 to the plant's PM schedule.

The governor will be removed and returned to the manufacturer for refurbishment every five years.

l (Closed) IFI 302/86-38-06:

The licensee has added the reactor building accelerometer package inspection to the plant's PM schedule.

The accelerometer will be inspected on a monthly basis to check for humidity

and replace the desiccant as needed.

'

(0 pen) IFI 302/86-38-01: The licensee's continued search for radioactive

,

l gas leaks in the Auxiliary Building (AB) has identified the following additional leaking components:

-

Valves WDV-465, MUV-139, MUV-255, MUV-49; and,

!

Packing gland leak-off lines that go to the floor drains for valves

-

l MUV-16, MUV-29, and MUV-23.

l l

This item remains open pending resolution of these various leak problems l

within the AB and the weld weep hole leak in the Make-up Tank (MUT).

(0 pen) UNR 302/85-29-01: In a meeting with Nuclear Operations Engineering personnel and the inspectors on February 11, 1987, the licensee outlined their planned actions to resolve the problems with the Safety Listing.

The licensee's investigation into these problems indicates that I

computerization of the listing should resolve these problems; however, it i

will take about one and a half years to complete this effort.

In the l

interim the licensee has committed to complete the following activities by l

June 30, 1987:

-

-

-

-

.

..-.

!

l

-

Establish an index for the Temporary Changes; Expand the introduction to the Safety Listing;

-

-

Provide more frequent updates to the listing; and, Develop a training lesson plan and training schedule for personnel

-

that use the listing.

Furthermore, the licensee has committed that this training will be completed by September 1, 1987.

This item remains open pending completion of the interim actions.

(0 pen) IFI 302/86-38-14: The licensee has completed the UT inspections of the main feedwater (MFW) piping and submitted the results for the -

inspector's review. The final report, which will provide a comparison of the pipe nominal wall thickness with that of the manufacturing specifications, remains to be issued.

This item remains open pending receipt and review of the report by the inspectors.

(0 pen) IFI 302/86-09-01: Review of this issue indicates that the licensee had analyzed the calibration problem with the Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) tachometers and determined that if the tachometers are set at the speed of a calibrated tachometer, i.e., a one point calibration, that they would remain in calibration.

This type calibration was performed on the tachometers.

During a plant tour on March 5, however, the inspector observed that the tachometer on the

"A" EDG was out of calibration.

Therefore, it appears that the licensee's resolution to this problem was not effective. This item remains open pending further action on this item by the licensee.

(Closed) Violation 302/86-23-08:

The licensee has revised procedure SP-434, Fuel Storage Pool Missile Shields, as revision 20 on 02/19/87.

This new revision appears to provide adequate instructions for installation of all the missile shields.

(Closed) UNR 302/82-28-04:

Surveillance procedures for the plant ventilation systems were revised as follows:

SP-185, Reactor Building Ventilation Exhaust System Testing,

-

revision 13 dated 01/14/87; i

SP-186, Control Room Emergency Ventilation System Testing,

-

revision 14 dated 11/21/86; and,

)

SP-187, Auxiliary Building Ventilation Exhaust System Testing,

-

revision 13 dated 11/21/86.

These revisions were reviewed to verify that the acceptance criteria were in accordance with the TS, that the procedures provide for review and i

adequate instructions for the performance' of the necessar" testing.

(Closed) IFI 302/84-30-01:

Procedure SP-425, Control Rod Drive Patch l

Panel Access Control, has been revised to remove any nonexistent information and to assure that all necessary additional surveillances are conducted.

(Closed) UNR 302/86-20-03:

Procedure SP-201, Accessible / Inaccessible Hydraulic Snubbers Visual Inspection, has been revised to require the i

recording of the "as found" and "as left" fluid levels.

If the level is i

not appropriate, the procedure then requires that fluid be added (if a

Power Piping Snubber) or the snubber be replaced (if an ITT Grinnell Snubber) at the time of discovery.

'

(Closed) IFI 302/85-21-04:

The licensee has reviewed this event and determined that the loose contact on relay 0213 which is in the control

,

circuit of circuit breaker 3206 would not have rendered the breaker inoperable. Additionally, relay 0213 was replaced with a new style relay

!

in accordance with modification (MAR) 85-05-13-01A on 06/25/86 because the old style relay had become obsolete.

,

Heat Removal pump (DHP-1B) in accordance with procedure l

MP-131;

-

Voltage adjustments to the "B" and "D" battery chargers (DPBC-1B and DPBC-10) in accordance with procedure PM-141; Checking, cleaning and testing of the

"B" Emergency Diesel

-

Generator (EDG) output breaker (breaker #3210)

in accordance with procedure PM-101;

-

"D" channel of the Emergency Feedwater l

Initiation and Control (EFIC) system in accordance with procedure MP-531 and SP-146;

-

Replacement of check valve RWV-36 in the Nuclear Services Seawater System in accordance with procedures MP-122, MP-132, and SP-344A;

-

Replacement of the air start air compressor on the "A" EDG in accordance with a Work Request (WR) and modifications (MARS) 87-01-17-01 and 87-01-17-02; and,

-

,

'

-

Replacement of opto-isolator in the EFIC system channel A in accordance with Procedures MP-531 and SP-146.

As a result of these reviews the following items were identified:

(a) During the performance of procedures PM-101, 4.16 ' KV and 6.9 KV Switchgear, and PM-141, Tolerances and Set Points for Battery Chargers, the inspector noticed a lack of specific guidance to the craft performing the work.

Specifically step 7.2.8 of procedure PM-101 requires

.

!

resistance measurements be taken on the breaker's blow out coils, and step 7.4.5.2 requires a breaker insulation test y

be conducted.

No acceptance criteria was specified for these steps in the procedure. The workers were questioned about the adequacy of the results obtained but did not know if the results were satisfactory.

The electricians contacted the shop supervisor who did know the procedure's intent and the acceptance criteria.

All results were

.

--

y

.,.

-.,,.. _ _ _ -

. - _. _

-

..

._

..

-

.

.

satisfactory.

This matter was discussed with the shop supervisor who stated that the procedure could be clarified to avoid confusion in this area.

During the performance of procedure PM-141, the inspector observed the workers set the battery charger's float voltage and equalizer voltage in accordance with sections 7.4 and 7.5 of the procedure.

The workers then proceeded to adjust the current limiting device in accordance with section 7.6.

This section requires that the previously established float and equalizer voltages be adjusted to set the current limiting device. No requirement exists in the procedure to readjust the float and equalizer voltages back to acceptable values when the craft.is finished with this step.

In this instance the workers realized this readjustment was necessary and subsequently re performed sections 7.4 and 7.5 of the procedure.

The inspector informed the shop supervisor of this potential problem.

Also the inspector noticed that the procedure requires setpoints be recorded for the high and low AC and DC voltage alarms. However, these setpoints are required to be taken after the devices are adjusted to actuate the alarm and before the final setpoint is established.

Therefore, no "as found" or "as left" setpoints are specified to be recorded.

The inspector discussed the intent of this step with the shop supervisor who replied that the "as lef t" setpoint was the desired value to be recorded. The licensee plans to make appropriate changes to the procedure to clarify these steps.

In NRC Inspection Report 50-302/86-09, the licensee was

-

cited for failure to have an adequate PM procedure (PM-123). While the observations discussed herein did not result in inadequate PM performance as' occurred with PM-123, it does indicate a possible. inadequacy with the PM.

procedures.

These observations and conclusions were discussed with licensee management personnel. The licensee acknowledged the ' inspector's concerns and will review all PM procedures.

l UNR (302/87-04-01):

Review the preventive maintenance

'

,

l procedures to determine the adequacy of these procedures.

(b) During the post-maintenance test performed on DHP-1B, the workers appeared confused when measuring / recording pump

'

vibration readings.

The measuring device utilized had

'

several different scales to choose from to indicate displacement and velocity readings. These measurements are taken by one worker and recorded by another. Communication between the two workers is extremely hampered by the noise

.

,- -

.

.

.

generated by the running pump.

Several readings recorded appeared to be inaccurate. When the inspector requested that these readings be taken again it was discovered that the readings were in error. This matter was discussed with licensee management personnel who stated that refresher training on the correct use of the measuring device would be given to the mechanics before taking future vibration measurements.

This refresher training course was conducted on February 18-20. From review of the attendance sheets and the course outline, the inspector judged that this training should be effective in preventing recurrence of such activities.

(10) Radioactive Waste Controls - Selected liquid and gaseous releases were observed to verify that approved procedures were utilized, that appropriate release approvals were obtained, and that required surveys were taken.

No violations or deviations were identified.

(11) Pipe Hangers and Seismic Restraints - Several pipe hangers and seismic restraints (snubbers) on safety-related systems were observed to insure that fluid levels were adequate and no leakage was evident, that restraint settings were appropriate, and that anchoring points were not binding.

No violations or deviations were identified.

6.

Review of Licensee Event Reports and Nonconforming Operations Reports a.

Licensee Event Reports (LERs) were reviewed for potential generic impact, to detect-trends, and to determine whether corrective actions appeared appropriate. Events, which were reported immediately, were reviewed as they occurred to determine if the TS were satisfied.

LERs 86-26 and 87-04 were reviewed in accordance with current NRC policy.

LER 86-26 is closed.

LER 87-04 remains open.

(0 pen) LER 87-04:

This LER reported the failure to comply with TS radioactive gas effluent monitoring requirements.

This LER will remain open pending revision to procedure OP-412 to clarify flow rate estimation requirements, b.

The inspector reviewed Nonconforming Operations Reports (NCORs) to verify the following: compliance with the TS, corrective actions as identified in tt.e reports or during subsequent reviews have been accomplished or are being pursued for completion, generic items are identified and reported as required by 10 CFR Part 21, and items are reported as required by T.

--

.

.

w

.

.

!

,

All NCORs were reviewed in accordance with the current NRC Policy.

As the result of these reviews, the following items were identified:

(1) NCOR 87-36 identified that a pressure switch (DD-47-PS) for controlling bearing flush water to the nuclear services and decay heat seawater pumps had been changed from the original Static '0' Rings switch to a United Electric switch due to part unavailability. This item was found during a review to update the surveillance procedure for the new part. The old switch was removed in 1985 when. it failed to pass a surveillance calibration check and the switch assembly was found full of water.

The new switch appears to be working satisfactory; however, the " proof" pressure (the maximum pressure which the manufacturer recommends - the switch to be exposed to (25 psig))

is less than the normal system operating pressure (32 psig).

This matter has been referred to the licensee's engineering staff to evaluate the continued use of this switch in this application and the effect on system operation.

IFI (302/87-04-02):

Review the engineering evaluation for the use of a United Electric switch for controlling flush water to

In NRC Inspection Report 50-302/87-01, the events reported in NCORs 87-27 and 87-28 were discussed and considered to be a licensee identified violation in which adequate corrective action was taken to prevent recurrence. However, the issuance of NCOR 87-35, which identified the. discovery of

+

additional discrepancies, appears to indicate that the previously taken corrective actions may not have been adequate.

The licensee is continuing to review these procedures to assure that no further discrepancies exist. This item is considered to be Unresolved pending completion of f the licensee's review and implementation of corrective actions and subsequent review by the NRC.

UNR(302/87-04-03): Review procedures SP-130 and SP-358 (A,B,C)

to insure that no further testing deficiencies exist.

(3) NCOR 87-34 reported that the valve internals for valve MUV-16 were replaced with that of a.different manufacturer and that no Modification (MAR) package was generated to cover this change.

To correct this discrepancy, a MAR was written and implemented to identify the correct internals for this valve.

During the inspector's review of this NCOR, it was noted that during the valve work some debris in the form of a crystalline

and metallic substance was - found in the valve body.

The licensee has sent this debris to a contractor for analysis but has not yet received the results of this analysis.

Additionally, the licensee is examining the types of packing in use on the valve since it is speculated that the packing may have had an effect upon the operation of the valve.

The licensee's progress on these items will be tracked as an IFI.

IFI (302/87-04-04): Review the analysis for the debris in valve MUV-16 and the final packing determination for this valve.

!

(4) NCOR 87-39 reported the failure of check valve RWV-36 to shut.

i This check valve is located in the Nuclear Services Seawater (RW) system and has since been replaced by a new valve.

An

'

engineering investigation is underway to determine the affects

,

of this failure on the RW system operability.

]

IFI (302/87-04-05):

Review the results of the engineering investigation into the RWV-36 valve failure.

Design, Design Changes and Modifications Installation of new or modified systems were reviewed to verify that the i

changes were reviewed and approved in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59, that

the changes were performed in accordance with technically adequate and

approved procedures, that subsequent testing and test results met acceptance criteria or deviations were resolved in an acceptable manner, f

and that appropriate drawings and facility procedures were revised as

,

necessary.

This review included selected observations of modifications and/or testing in progress.

containment air lock testing.

Due to confusion between the Technical

!

Specification -(TS) 4.6.1.3.b, which is allowed a 25% extension by TS 4.0.2.a and Appendix J which does not allow an extension, the six month interval for the Type B test of the containment air locks had been exceeded. The licensee has implemented a tracking system which should i

prevent the recurrence of this event. Action on this matter is considered

complete.
