PLANT STATUS

Unit 1 began the inspection period shut down for a planned refueling outage. On April 13, 2024,

the unit was restarted and returned to rated thermal power (RTP) on April 16, 2024. On April 20,

2024, the unit was down powered to 75 percent (%) RTP due to failure of the 1A1 traveling

water screen. Following repairs, the unit was returned to RTP on April 21, 2024, and remained

at or near RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at RTP. On May 21, 2024, the unit was down powered to

92% RTP for 2A2 water box repairs, and following repairs, the unit was returned to RTP on May

29, 2024. On June 4, 2024, the unit was down powered to 92% RTP for 2A2 water box repairs

and was subsequently tripped (shut down) to Mode 3 due to a 2B2 circulating water pump trip

and lowering condenser vacuum. On June 6, 2024, the unit was restarted and returned to RTP

on June 13, 2024. On June 17, 2024, the unit was down powered to 63% RTP for a hydraulic

fluid leak on the main turbine. On June 18, 2024, the unit was shut down from 63% RTP to

Mode 3 to perform repairs on the 2A2 water box and the main turbine hydraulic fluid leak. The

unit was returned to RTP on June 27, 2024, where it remained for the rest of the inspection

period.

71153

The inspectors reviewed a self-revealed Green finding and associated non-cited violation

(NCV) of Saint Lucie Unit 2 Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1.a, Procedures, for the

licensees failure to appropriately implement the requirements of engineering maintenance

specification SPEC-M-196, Replacement of 2 and Under Safety Related Valves, as

required by Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements,

Appendix A, Section 9, Procedures for Performing Maintenance. Specifically, the licensee

failed to implement fatigue prevention measures as detailed in SPEC-M-196 during

replacement of 2A2 safety injection tank (SIT) vent valve V3801 (and associated

reducer/piping) on September 13, 2021, and during weld failure repairs performed on V3801

and associated piping on December 16, 2023, which led to through-wall leakage in reactor

coolant system (RCS) pressure boundary piping.

Description: On August 18, 2021, during a Unit 2 reactor coolant pressure boundary

walkdown, operators discovered a large accumulation of boric acid at the 2A2 SIT, which was

determined to be originating at the V3801 pipe cap. On September 13, 2021, V3801 was

replaced in accordance with EC 296696, which replaced the existing 8-pound 1 valve with a

16-pound 3/4 valve and a pipe reducer, due to the unavailability of a 1 vent valve.

On December 11, 2023, during a Unit 2 reactor containment building walkdown, dry boric

acid was found on a pipe below valve V3801 and was classified as an inactive leak.

Subsequently, on December 15, 2023, a through-wall leak of class 1 piping segment SI-227

(upstream of V3801) was identified coming from the connection point for piping segments

SI-227 and SI-149. On December 16, 2023, V3801 was removed and replaced with a new 3/4

valve and pipe reducer, adding a 2:1 taper weld to the failed weld connection.

On December 26, 2023, operators identified lowering levels in the 2A2 SIT, and a 10 psig

pressure drop during the shift. Subsequently, on January 3, 2024, Unit 2 was shut down to

Mode 3 for containment entry to determine the source of lowering levels in the SIT. A visual

inspection revealed a through-wall leak of class 1 piping segment SI-227, upstream of V3801

at the socket weld that was performed during the vent valve replacement on December 16,

2023. The impacted class 1 piping described was considered part of the reactor coolant

pressure boundary. Upon the discovery of each of the through-wall leaks, the licensee made

notifications to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(A) for the degraded

condition related to the reactor coolant barrier through wall leak.

The licensees root cause evaluation concluded that the through wall leakage was caused by

weld fatigue and solidification cracking. A failure analysis identified that the fatigue crack

initiation and propagation were likely related to: internal pressure; bending stresses related to

the weight of the valve and its mounting arrangement; system vibrations; and stresses due to

differential thermal expansion of the valve assembly and the connection to the 12 safety

injection piping. The licensee noted in the root cause evaluation that if the fatigue prevention

measures (i.e., pipe configuration, valve weight considerations, and use of 2:1 taper welds)

as detailed in SPEC-M-196 had been followed, the weld configuration would not have been

susceptible to fatigue and solidification cracking.

Corrective Actions: On January 5, 2024, V3801 was replaced with a new valve which

incorporated all fatigue prevention recommendations of SPEC-M-196. The support was

lengthened by 2 to allow room for 2:1 taper welds, and to allow relocating the supports from

downstream of V3801 to upstream. Additionally, the vent valve assembly was returned to the

original configuration (1 vent valve vice 3/4) that was replaced in 2021.

The licensee revised STD-W-002, General Welding Standard - Safety Related Piping, to

require 2:1 taper welds and added guidance for the use of clamps when welding joints. The

licensee also performed a review of the past five years of changes to reactor coolant

pressure boundary lines of less than 2 diameter piping with restraints, that were not like-for-

like replacements. The licensee walked down the equivalent valves on Unit 1 during refueling

outage SL1-32 and identified no deficiencies.

Corrective Action References: AR 2475748 (Root Cause Evaluation). AR 2490506 was

initiated to document this violation.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the licensees failure to implement

the fatigue prevention measures of SPEC-M-196, as required by TS 5.4.1.a and RG 1.33,

Appendix A, Section 9, to perform maintenance on V3801 and associated class 1 piping on

September 13, 2021 and December 16, 2023, was within licensees the ability to foresee and

correct, and therefore 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 Initiating Events

cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events

that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as

power operations. Specifically, the licensees failure to implement the fatigue prevention

measures of SPEC-M-196, resulted in non-isolatable through-wall leakage in RCS pressure

boundary piping.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix AProperty "Inspection Manual Chapter" (as page type) with input value "NRC Inspection Manual 0609</br></br>Appendix A" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. Using

the Initiating Events Screening Questions found in Exhibit 1, Section A, the inspector

determined that the finding screened to Green, the leak did not exceed the RCS leak rate for

a small LOCA and did not prevent meeting the safety functions of the emergency core cooling

system.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.12 - Avoid Complacency: Individuals recognize and plan for the

possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful

outcomes. Individuals implement appropriate error reduction tools. Specifically, the site failed

to recognize the latent issues caused by the engineering change in 2021, which added

additional valve weight and length, and a 1 to 3/4 pipe reducer but did not consider the

potential for weld fatigue and solidification cracking due to the change. This complacency

resulted in two separate incidents of weld failures on the same class 1 piping segment,

SI-227.

Enforcement:

Violation: TS 5.4.1.a requires in part that written procedures shall be established,

implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in RG 1.33,

Revision 2, Appendix A. RG 1.33, Appendix A, Section 9, Procedures for Performing

Maintenance, requires in part that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-

related equipment should be properly preplanned and performed in accordance with written

procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances.

Engineering maintenance specification SPEC-M-196, Section 3.6, Spatial Envelope, Piping

Configuration, and Weight, contained guidance for the installation of 2 and under safety-

related vent valves.

Contrary to the above, on September 13, 2021, and December 16, 2023, the licensee failed

to implement the fatigue prevention measures of SPEC-M-196 to perform maintenance on

2A2 SIT vent valve V3801 and associated class 1 piping, which resulted in through-wall

leakage in RCS pressure boundary piping.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
