PLANT STATUS
Unit 1 operated at or near rated thermal power for the entire inspection period.
Unit 2 began the inspection period at full power. On February 13, 2020, Unit 2 was taken off line by controlled shutdown due to an equipment failure resulting in an unplanned technical specification entry. Unit 2 returned to full power on February 17, 2020, and remained at or near rated thermal power for the remainder of the inspection period.
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. From January 1 - March 19, 2020, the inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515, Appendix D, Plant Status, and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution. 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.
Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), resident inspectors were directed to begin telework and to remotely access licensee information using available technology. During this time the resident inspectors performed periodic site visits each week and during that time conducted plant status activities as described in IMC 2515, Appendix D; and observed risk significant activities when warranted. In addition, resident and regional baseline inspections were evaluated to determine if all or portion of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. If the inspections could be performed remotely, they were conducted per the applicable IP. In the cases where it was determined the objectives and requirements could not be performed remotely, management elected to postpone and reschedule the inspection to a later date.

OTHER ACTIVITIES
- TEMPORARY INSTRUCTION, INFREQUENT, AND ABNORMAL Evaluation of Diablo Canyon Power Plant Safety Condition in Light of Financial Conditions Because Pacific Gas & Electric Corporation, and its subsidiary, Pacific Gas & Electric Company (the licensee) was under bankruptcy protection/reorganization during the inspection period, NRC Region IV conducted special reviews of processes at Diablo Canyon Power Plant. Using the flexibilities in the baseline inspection program, the inspectors evaluated several aspects of the licensees operations to determine whether the financial condition of the licensee impacted plant safety. The factors reviewed during this period included:
- (1) impact on staffing,
- (2) corrective maintenance backlog,
- (3) changes to the planned maintenance schedule,
- (4) corrective action program implementation, and
- (5) any reduction in outage scope, including risk-significant modifications. Considering the licensees financial difficulties, the inspectors verified that licensee personnel continued to identify problems at an appropriate threshold and enter these problems into the corrective action program for resolution. The inspectors also verified that the licensee continued to develop and implement corrective actions commensurate with the significance of the problems identified.
The special review of processes at Diablo Canyon Power Plant included continuous reviews by the resident inspectors, as well as the specialist-led baseline inspections completed during the inspection period which are documented in this report. During this period, the inspectors did not identify any indications that the licensees financial circumstances were adversely affecting plant performance and safety.
INSPECTION RESULTS
Failure to Follow Procedure Results in Inoperable Containment Spray Systems Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Barrier Integrity
Green NCV 05000323/2020001-01 Open
[H.5] - Work Management 71153 The inspectors reviewed a self-revealed, Green, non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," for failure to follow the requirements of procedure OP L-6, "Cold Shutdown/Refueling." Specifically, while preparing for a reactor plant mode transition, the licensee inadvertently rendered both trains of containment spray inoperable in Mode 4, a mode of operation with both containment spray trains required to be operable.
Description:
On November 30, 2019, at the start of Unit 2, Refueling Outage 21, the licensee began to transition the unit from Mode 4 to Mode 5 in accordance with OP L-6, Cold Shutdown/Refueling. While preparing for this transition, personnel from operations issued instructions to disable the containment spray pumps while the plant was still in Mode 4, a task that is required by OP L-6 only after the plant reaches Mode 5. This rendered both trains of containment spray inoperable as Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.6, "Containment Spray and Cooling Systems," requires two containment spray trains to be operable while in Modes 1, 2, 3, and 4. Approximately 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> later, operations personnel identified that the two containment spray trains were inoperable while still in Mode 4. Operations personnel subsequently entered the applicable TS limiting condition for operation (LCO) 3.0.3 which states, in part, that when an LCO is not met, action shall be initiated within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to place the unit in Mode 5 within 37 hours4.282407e-4 days <br />0.0103 hours <br />6.117725e-5 weeks <br />1.40785e-5 months <br />. Operations personnel restored power to the containment spray pumps, returned both trains of containment spray to operable status within the 37-hour requirement to place the unit in Mode 5, and exited the applicable TS LCOs.
Corrective Actions: Operations personnel returned both trains of containment spray to operable status and entered the issue into the corrective action program.
Corrective Action References: Notification 51057622
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to follow OP L-6, "Cold Shutdown/Refueling," by rendering both trains of containment spray inoperable while in a Mode of operation with containment spray required to be operable, was a performance deficiency.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Human Performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the licensee rendered both trains of containment spray inoperable while in Mode 4, a mode of operation in which both containment spray trains are required to be operable.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix G, Shutdown Safety SDP. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not degrade the ability to close or isolate the containment; the physical integrity of reactor containment; or involve an actual reduction in function of hydrogen control for a BWR Mark III containment, a PWR ice condenser containment, or an AP1000 containment.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.5 - Work Management: The organization implements a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. The work process includes the identification and management of risk commensurate to the work and the need for coordination with different groups or job activities.
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," states, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Section 6.1.3 of OP L-6, "Cold Shutdown/Refueling," Revision 29, an activity affecting quality requires, in part, that containment spray pumps and control power are disabled after the unit reaches Mode 5 and before reaching Mode 6. Contrary to the above, on November 30, 2019, in anticipation of Mode 5 entry, the licensee inadvertently rendered both trains of containment spray inoperable while still in Mode 4, a mode of operation in which both containment spray pumps are required to be operable.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
