The inspectors verified that control room manning requirements of 10 CFR 50.54 and the Technical Specifications were met. Control operator, shif t supervisor, clearance, STA, daily and standing instructions, and jumper / bypass logs were reviewed to obtain information concerning operating trends and out of service safety systems to ensure that there were no conflicts with Technical Specification Limiting Conditions for Operations. Direct observations were conducted of control room panels, instrumentation and recorder traces important to safety to verify operability and that operating parameters were within Technical Specification limit The inspectors observed shift turnovers to verify that continuity of system status was maintained. The inspectors verified the status of selected control room annunciator Operability of a selected Engineered Safety Feature division was verified weekly by ensuring that: each accessible valve in the flow path was in its correct position; each power supply and breaker was closed for components that must activate upon initiation signal; the RHR subsystem cross-tie valve for each unit was closed with the power removed from the valve operator; there was no leakage of major components; there was proper lubrication and cooling water available; and a condition did not avist which might prevent fulfillment of the system's functional requirement Instrumentation essential to system actuation or performance was verified operable by observing on-scale indication and proper instrument valve lineup, if accessibl The inspectors verified that the licensee's health physics policies /

procedures were followed. This included observation of Hp practices and a review of area surveys, radiation work permits, posting, and instrument calibratio The inspectors verified that: the security organi::ation was properly manned and security personnel were capable of performing their assigned functions; persons and packages were checked prior to entry into the protected area; vehicles were properly authorized, searched and escorted within the PA; persons within the pA displayed photo identification badges; personnel in vital areas were authorized; and effective compensatory measures were employed when require The inspectors also observed plant housekeeping controls, verified position of certain containment isolation valves, checked a clearance, and verified the operability of onsite and offsite emergency power source The inspectors found a valve between each Unit 2 instrument air compressor and its associated air receiver that was not shown on the system diagra The licensee issued an NCR to address the issue and issued a change notice for the appropriate drawing Since the system is non-saftey, no violation occurre Service Water Lube Water Support Operability On March 9,1989, the inspector found one of the three lube water piping supports broken for the 2A NSW pump.

pumps and found a problem with the 2A CSW pump lube water sur> ort These supports had corroded in two. The support baseplate was below floor level, collecting water. Grout covering the baseplate in the recess hid the corrosio On March 15, 1989, the engineering evaluation showed that the lube water supports were inoperable as a result of being corroded. The affected pumps were then declared inoperable and repairs were made to the supports. On March 31, 1989, plant services personnel prepared the 2A CSW pump lube water and strainer supports for painting by grinding. While grinding, plant services discovered several corroded areas. They found corroded areas on a lube water piping support and a pump strainer support. Trouble ticket 89-AICX1 was initiated to repair the lube water support and an engineering evaluation was begun on the strainer suppor The engineering evaluation concluded that the strainer support was still operabl The engineer told operations that the support and the pump was inoperable that afternoon. The unit was not placed in an ACTION statement since a sufficent number of pumps were operabl On April 5, 1989, the inspector questioned the system engineer about the status of the lube water support The inspector discovered that, of the three lube water supports inspected in detail (i.e., the 2A NSW,1B CSW, and 2A CSW supports), all three were found to be inoperable. The inspectors then questioned plant management on the acceptability of the remaining pumps and why an accelerated inspection program was not in effect. Tne plant manager stated that he thought all the supports were ir:pected and added that he was informed that in the case of the 2A CSW pump, it was still operable with the corroded suppor With the new information, the licensee started a more detailed inspection of the remaining service water lube water supports and started the evaluation process to determine if the piping could be qualified independent of the supports. The inspection results of the supports on April 6, 1989 and thereafter showed that supports of nine of the ten pumps had significant corrosion. The licensee immediately began repairs on these supports and ensured that the correct number of operable pumps existed to allow continued unit operatio Engineering performed a preliminary analysis and test to show that, in all likelihood, a complete analysis will demonstrate short-term qualificatio The licensee must do further analysis to verify the assumptions used in the preliminary assessment before the short term Pending the results of this

management failed to get the correct informatio The inspectors will followup on this issue when the URI is resolve b. Guidance to Operators Concerning Delta T Requirements On March 28, 1989, at 5:44 a.m., operations personnel secured the 2B recirculation pump MG set due'to a report of arcing and sparking near the generator end. The licensee found that the brushes required replacement. These repairs were accomplished and the MG set and recirculation pump were ready for restart approximately 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> late The operator must verify certain differential temperatures specified in Technical Specification 3.4.1.3 within 30 minutes prior to startup of the idle recirculation loop. One of these requirements is that the temperature differential between the dome and the bottom head drain must be less than 145 degrees F. Unit 2 typically has difficulty in meeting this temperature differential requirement due to a partially clogged bottom head drai The operators, in order to meet the above requirement, reduced CRD flow to reduce cooling of the bottom head. They also reduced power by reducing flow in the operating loop, thereby reducing pressure /

temperature of the dome. The operator then verified at the RTGB that his temperature parameters were satisfied and then started the 2B recirculation MG set. After the recirculation pump started, the operator then began to increase power by increasing recirculation pump speed. The operator also restored CRD flow to its normal valu The increase in CRD flow and recirculation flow caused the delta T between the dome and bottom head drain to exceeded 145 degrees The licensee stated that the 145 degrees F delta T requirement applied only to startup of the idle recirculation pump and did not apply after both pumps are runnin Technical Specifications do not list a delta T requirement when increasing recirculation pump speed. However, Service Information Letter 251, dated October 31, 1977, recommended that recirculation flow should not be increased if the delta T between the dome and bottom head drain was greater than 145 degrees F to avoid over-stressing the CRD stub tube and in-core housing welds. Supplement I to SIL 251, dated July 1980, identified four conditions in which thermal stratification may occur which would require that the 145 l degrees F delta T requirement be met:

o Operation of the reactor at less than 30% rated power without forced recirculation flow in both loops, o During heat up of the reactor with only one recirculation loop in operatio o Operation at any power level with only one recirculation loop in operation at less than 40% flo o During startup of the recirculation pumps or when increasing reactor power following a reactor scram with recirculation pump

trip unless the reactor has been depressurized to atmospheric pressur The SIL further states that thermal stratification would not be a problem with both recirculation pumps operating at 20% speed. At Brunswick the minimum speed setting of the recirculation pumps is 28%.

OP-02, Reactor Recirculation Operating Frocedure, Rev. 63, Section D.3, states that recirculation pump speed should not be increased if the delta T between the bottom head region and vessel saturation temperature exceeds 145 degrees F. The operators assumed that this limit applied to the startup of the idle loop only and not to dual pump operatio Based on a review of the two SIls and recent correspondence between the licensee and GE, the thennal stratifica-tion concern and the corresponding 145 degrees F delta T requirement should not apply during dual pump operation even with a partially clogged bottom head drain. The limit would apply, however, when increasing recirculation pump speed while operating in single loo The licensee plans to make the appropriate changes to their operating procedures and training to clarify this requirement. This is an Inspector Followup Item: Provide Additional Guidance to Operators Concerning Delta T Requirements IFI 325/89-07-03 and 324/89-07-0 Key Control During an inspection of the 'Jnit 1 Reactor Building on April 4, 1989, the inspector noted that keys were installed in the control switch for SRVs B21-F013B and F013G at the remote shutdown panel. The switches were positioned to the NORMAL position which is the correct position for standby lineup of the system. These valves are not part of the ADS syste The testing of local control of the SRVs was. accomplished by procedure SP-85-023, which was completed on April 3, 198 Volume 1, Book i of the Operating Nanual, Administrative Procedure, Revision 119, Section 4.1.13 and 01-21, Operations Shift Key and Portable Dose Rate Instrument Control, Revision 9, define the licensee's policy for the control of keys. The inspector could not determine which portion of the policy requires shif t operators to complete a key checkout tag. The licensee issued NCR S-89-042 to address this procedural inconsistency and key control. The inspector will monitor the closecut of this item in future inspection A potentially significant problem with service water lubricating water supports was found. No violations or deviations were identifie . Onsite Review of Licensee Event Reports (92700)

The licensee installed diodes across the PLU test relays in Unit 1 under PM-89-012 after discussion with GE - Schenectady. The licensee also increased the PLU test timer from 5 to 8 seconds to further preclude re-enabling the circuit prior to dropout of the test relays. The PM was declared operable on March 23, 1989. The inspector verified that the acceptance test had been completed through a documentation revie The licensee has stopped testing the PLU circuit on Unit 2 until the same PM can be made. The licensee has approved a project for Unit 2 for implementation not later than the next refueling outag The inspector verified, through document review, that any other problems found during the event were corrected.

The inspectors reviewed / observed activities associated with Unit 1 startup after the refueling outage to determine if activities were conducted in accordance with approved procedures and Technical Specification The inspection included a review of the changes to GP-01, Revision 110, Startup Checklist; direct observation of startup and approach to criticality; observation of selected surveillance tests; and inspection of equipment, piping and components in areas not normally accessible, Specific inspection items included:

(1) Drywell and Torus Closecut The inspectors conducted a walkdown of the torus and drywell just prior to the licensee's closecut. The inspection included the dome and five foot elevation in the drywell, areas that require a respirator. The inspectors examined supports, mirror insulation, manual valve positions, motor operators, snubbers, pipe hangers, and other equipment. SRV vacuum breakers and torus drywell vacuum breakers were examined with a licensee employee's assistance and found satisfactor (2) Valve Lineups The completed valve lineup sheets for the Automatic Depressurization System were reviewed for completeness. Both trains of the RHR system were walked down in the plant to verify system condition, especially piping and supports. Proper system status was verified during start-up as system line-ups changed.

(1) Safety Relief Vcive J. Acoustic Monitor Insulation Degraded The inspectors discovered cracked insulation on SRV J sonic detector cable. The crack occurred where the cable exited the Raychem heat shrink and appeared to be caused by the cable experiencing excessive bend radius at this point. The cable exited the Raychem heat shrink at a 90 degree angle. These detectors are removed each outage to support SRV removal and subsequent re-installation. The removal and re-installation of the SRV sonic detectors was accomplished by WR/JO 88-APML1, The ccrrective action section of the work order states that the detector was re-installed and left in a satisfactory conditio The licensee theorizes that, subsequent to installation, the detector was bumped or stepped on which caused the insulation of the cable to crac To correct the problem, the licensee replaced the sensor and cable.

the operation of the unit with the acoustic monitor inoperable I (provided temperature indication were operable), and the fact that this appears to be an isolated case, as all other SRV acoustic monitors were satisfactory, the violation is classified as a Severity Level V Violatio Since the requirements of Section V.A. of the NRC Enforcement Policy was met, no Notice of Violation will be cited: SRV Acoustic Monitor EQ Cable Insula-tion Cracked, Violation 325/89-07-0 (2) Cigarette Butt in Drywell The inspector found a cigarette butt in penetration X-49 at azimuth 31 This penetration was previously capped and was used during this outage for a plant modification. The licensee has experienced other problems with smoking in unauthorized areas as discussed in inspection report 88-18. The licensee's recent actions to eliminate smoking in unauthorized areas have been aggressiv They have issued a memorandum to all site personnel re-inforcing the smoking policy. The inspectors will continue to monitor the licensee's efforts in this area.
