3. Plant Operations (71707, & 40500)

Throughout the inspection period, facility tours were conducted to observe operations and maintenance activities in progress. The tours included entries into the protected areas and the radiologically controlled areas of the plan During these inspections, discussions were held with operators, health physics and instrument and controls technicians, mechanics, security personnel, engineers, supervisors, and plant management. Some operations and maintenance activity observations were conducted during backshifts. Licensee meetings were attended by the inspector to observe planning and management activities. The inspections confirmed FPC's compliance with 10 CFR, Technical Specifications, License Conditions, and Administrative Procedures, Reactor Coolant Flow Transmitter Failure On December 8, at 12:02 a.m., an RCS flow annunciator alarm was received in the control room. Reactor Coolant Pump amps remained steady and were consistent with earlier reading Operators monitored the RCS flow indications and determined that the RPS channel "B" instrumentation had faile The channel was declared inoperable and placed in the tripped condition at 12:50 a.m. as required by T Troubleshooting indicated that transmitter RC-14B-DPT2 had faile The transmitter was manufactured by Rosemount Inc., model ll53HD6PA. While planning the replacement of the transmitter, the licensee recognized that a similarly designed plant had recently tripped inadvertently during a similar maintenance evolution, in order to minimize the potential for an inadvertent reactor trip, the licensee planned to isolate a redundant transmitter associated with RPS channel "C" while the Channel "B" transmitter was valved out, replaced, and returned to servic This required bypassing Channel "C" of the RPS during the evolution, an action not allowed by TS for the performance of surveillance but not maintenance. The licensee reasoned that this course of action was in the best interest of safety, by reducing the probability of an inadvertent reactor trip. Revised Standard TS for crystal River Unit 3 are in development and will allow unlimited bypass of RPS channels for maintenance with one channel already failed. Following licensee discussion of their assessment, the NRC concurred with their planned actions. The licensee voluntarily entered TS 3.0.3 while Channel "C" was bypassed from 9:05 p.m. to 9:08 p.m. and 11:10 p.m. to 11:17 p.m.,

during the maintenance evolution. The inspectors noted that the licensee expended significant effort to ensure the maintenance evolution was performed in a manner which minimized the risk of an inadvertent reactor trip and to minimize the time in TS 3.0.3 (total time of approximately 10 minutes). This issue will be permanently resolved when Revised Standard TS are implemented. Implementation is currently scheduled for the Fall of 199 Radiological Protection Program Radiation protection control activities were observed to verify that these activities were in conformance with the facility policies and

One item involving Decay Heat Pump vibration testing was considered noteworthy. As previously reported in NRC Inspection Report.50-302/92-18, detail 4,c., the licensee has performed vibration testing in an attempt to determine the cause of higher than desired vibration.of.the .

"A" Decay Heat Pump. The analysis of the data collected during the July'

testing indicated a potential resonant frequency vibration in the pump discharge piping. During this inspection period,-the licensee performed additional testing. A vibration dampening device was temporarily installed on the discharge piping to identify the impact-of the vibration of the piping on pump vibration. A reduction in pump- ,

vibration of up to twenty percent was measured with.the damper installed. Due to difficulties handling the-dampening device, further testing may be required prior to development of the design change to permanently reduce-pump vibratio Inspector observation of the testing activities indicated that they were performed in a well controlled manne Overall, surveillance and maintenance. activities observed and discussed above were performed in a satisfactory manner in accordance_with procedural-requirements and met the requirements of the T .

c. (Closed) Operations Item A3: Refresher Startup Training for All Available Operators See paragraph 7 a abov d. (Closed) Operations Item Bl: Reinforce Man-On-Call Concurrence for Required Actions (Especially Work in Systems that Can Trip the Plant)

The policy of utilizing the Man-On-Call as a resource during any unusual or off-normal occurrence or plant evolution is_being reinforced during simulator training. A plant management commitment has been made to make the Man-On-Call available for training purposes, and Shift Managers'have been participating in operations training as related to their function as Emergency Coordinator. Additionally, a dedicated telephone line has been installed at the simulator site so that simulator crews can practice communication with the Man-On-Call during selected practice sessions. This telephone line was used during the-annual Emergency Preparedness exercise on November 5, 199 AI-500, Conduct of Operations, Revision 173, effective September 30, 1992, specified the systems. requiring prior approval before performing maintenance. The-systems specified were-those which could trip the unit, actuate engineered safeguards,-or interrupt decay heat removal. Approval for work on these systems can be-granted by the Operations Superintendent, the Manager-0n-Call, or the Nuclear Shift Manager. The pre-approval requirement does not'

apply to the performance of routine surveillances using approved procedures. This item is close e. (Closed) Operations Item B2: Reinforce SR0 Concurrence for-Required Actions (Especially bypassing "ES")

The licensee took the following actions to clarify requirements for bypassing automatic ES actuations:

-

As an immediate corrective action, Operations Study Book entry 9112.04 was issued on December 16, 1991, and stated that S500 concurrence should be obtained prior to bypass of any ES Actuation. The document further stated that ES may
