l 2.0 Surveillance and Calibration Program

2.1 References The following references were used: I * Maine Yankee Atomic Power Co. Technical Specifications, Sections 4.0, 4.1, 4.12, 5.8 and Tables 4.1-1, 4.1-2 and 4.1- * ANSI N 18.7-1976, Administrative Controls and Quality Assurance of the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plant * Regulatory Guide 1.33, 1978, Rev. 2, Quality Assurance Program Requirement * 10 CFR 50-36 Technical Specifications 2.2 Program Review A review of administrative procedures, surveillance and calibration procedures and the master surveillance schedule was made to verify the following: o --

  * that the requirements and commitments identified in section above were met; a

that a master surveillance schedule and administrative control system had been established which identified the frequency of each test, calibration, or inspection, the responsible group for performing each surveillance and the status of each : surveillance test;

      )

a that responsibility had been assigned for maintaining the master surveillance schedule up to date; q

tlat responsibilities had been assigned for reviewing and I eVJiuating the results of surveillance or calibration data; l

  *

that calibration requirements had been established and j maintained for equipment associated with safety related systems l but which are not specified in Technical Specifications as requiring calibration; a that responsibility had been assigned for ensuring that required schedules for all tests and inspections are satisfied;

  *

that the technical content of surveillance testing procedures comply with technical specifications requirements;

  *

that procedures contain controls to insure limiting conditions for operation had been met during the calibration; a that calibrations are performed to the required accuracy; and;

  *

that measuring and test equipment used in the calibration is traceabl The procedures and administrative control documents listed in Attachment A were reviewed.

L 2.3 Program Implementation The inspector verified that the licensee had established in the maintenance area, a program for administering, controlling and l implementing a surveillance testing and calibration program which I meet the criteria of paragraph 2.2. A master technical specification surveillance matrix had recently been developed and responsibilities assigned for maintaining it current. The matrix was found to meet ANSI N 18.7 requirements.

.

.

It was noted the licensee has not developed administrative procedures defining the surveillance testing and calibration programs used by j the maintenance and I&C shop However, implementing procedures and 1 controls have been developed to assure all surveillance and calibrations are performed as require { j

It was determined that I&C had developed, a good program for l performing calibrations of safety related equipment not identified j in Technical Specifications. This program had been incorporated into the preventive maintenance (PM) program. A computer system was used to schedule and control PM activities. Each month a list of PM items j required for calibration are printed out for the next quarte l Discrepancy Reports (DRs) in I&C are also tracked by computer. Daily l reports identify each DR by number, present status and explanation of any backlo i l Both I&C and maintenance shops use a calendar type matrix for identifying and controlling surveillance test j The inspector reviewed the completed procedures and data sheets of l surveillance test and calibrations performed by the maintenance and ' I&C shops. (See Attachment B). It was verified that these completed surveillance and calibrations met the criteria of paragraph ,

     '

It was noted that each department is responsible for controlling and calibrating all Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) they use. As a consequence, some departments controls are tighter than others. I&C monitors the calibration status of all their M&TE with the master compute Each month a list is printed showing all M&TE whose calibration is due within the next two months. Usage log sheets track each piece of M&TE equipment used for surveillance test and PM activitie The maintenance shop uses controlled instrument signout sheets to monitor use of calibrated instrument Although no violations were identified, the lack of a common administrative control program for M&TE could result in violations occurring in one or more department The inspector attended a plant operations review committee meeting concerned with problems identified following calibration of dual RTDs used in the hot and cold legs of the RCS. It was observed that l ' the RTD problems were clearly identified, participants were active in voicing their ideas and concerns and the' resolutions were made in a conservative manne .4 Independent Calculations l Independent calculations were made to verify the alarm setpoints used l ' for calibrating the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) level transmitter These setpoints were found to compare favorably with those found in surveillance test procedures 3-6.2.1.6 Safeguards Channel Calibration of RWST Safeguards channel and 3-6.2.1.23, ICC RWST Level Channels.

84-03, which added the level transmitters and bistables to the RWST was reviewe Findings No violations or deviations-were-identified. -There was',~however, one inspector followup item identified related to a maintenance - shop surveillance tes Just prior to this refueling outage, corrective maintenance was performed on the fire pump diesel engine per discrepancy report-DR438-8 This work was completed under. a generic corrective maintenance procedure 5-38-2, Rev. 11, Routine Corrective Maintenance and with the technical assistance of a representative from the diesel engine manufacturer. Following this . maintenance, the engine was run ~

for operability per surveillance procedure 3.1.9, Rev.17, Fire Pump Testing. Technical Specification 4.12.B.S.3.a and b. require that the fire pump diesel engine shall be = demonstrated OPERABLE each refueling interval by: Subjecting the diesel to an inspection in accordance with procedures prepared in conjunction with its manufacturer's recommendations for the class of service; and, Verifying the diesel starts from' ambient conditions on the auto-start signal and operates for 20 minutes while loaded with the fire pum Performance of procedures 3.1.9 satisfied TS 4.12.B.5.3.b require-ments but not TS 4.12.B.5.3.a requirement In order to satisfy the inspection requirement the licensee had to perform surveillance procedure 3.5.5, Rev. 8, Inspection of the Fire Pump Diesel Engine P- u

        {

Until identified by the inspector, the licensee had assumed that both requirements were satisfied for this refueling -perio The ) licensee has subsequently committed to performing procedure 3. { prior to coming out of their present refueling outage. The inspector ! verified that both procedures were performed during the preivous- i refueling outage. This is an inspector followup item to verify that 3.5.5 was completed per the licensee's commitment (IFI.50-309/87-14-01).

3.0 Quality Assurance / Quality Control Interface The inspector held discussions with Quality Assurance ~(QA) management concerning the Maintenance Department,- Surveillance Test and Calibration Program and - compared his results with their results ' identified. from previously' performed surveillance. In addition, the surveillance listed in Attachment C were reviewed. It was determined from this review tha '

        ,

the surveillance evaluation reports clearly identified areas reviewed, ; clearly identified weaknesses and concerns, were reviewed by management in a timely _ manner and showed that followup to identified weakness was timely and thorough.
