SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a special inspection at Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information.

List of Findings and Violations

No findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified.

Additional Tracking Items

None.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

- TEMPORARY INSTRUCTIONS, INFREQUENT AND ABNORMAL 37060 - 10 CFR 50.69 Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems, and Components Inspection The inspectors reviewed the licensees program and implementation of 10 CFR 50.69, Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems and Components for Nuclear Power Reactors, in accordance with the following procedure sections. Section 02.04 was not completed during this inspection because the feedback and process adjustment required by 10 CFR 50.69(e) was not implemented by the licensee. As of the date of this inspection, two refueling outages have not occurred since system categorization was completed on at least three systems.

Review of the Licensees Programs and Procedures (IP Section 02.01) (1 Partial)

(1) (Partial)

The inspectors reviewed the licensees program and procedures associated with 10 CFR 50.69, Risk-Informed Categorization and Treatment of Structures, Systems and Components (SSCs) for Nuclear Power Reactors, license amendment described in the plant safety evaluation and Updated Final Safety Analysis Report and documented in the staffs Safety Evaluation Report (ADAMS Accession Nos.

ML19330D909).

Review of the Licensees 10 CFR 50.69 Program Implementation (IP Section 02.02) (1 Partial)

(1) (Partial)

The inspectors reviewed the licensees 10 CFR 50.69 categorization process and alternate treatment requirements completed on the following systems.

  • Saltwater
  • Component Cooling Water
  • Emergency Core Cooling
  • Chemical and Volume Control Problem Identification and Resolution (IP Section 02.03) (1 Partial)

(1) (Partial)

For the systems listed above, the inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective action program to verify that conditions that would prevent RISC-3 SSCs from performing their safety-related function have been corrected. Additionally, the inspector verified that, as appropriate, the licensee performed common cause reviews for RISC-3 SSC deficiencies to ensure that the licensees SSC categorization process remains valid.

INSPECTION RESULTS

No findings were identified.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.

  • On April 27, 2023, the inspectors presented the special inspection results to Patrick Navin, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff.
