\\s /
b.
The inspector discussed observations made during the witnessing of Phase 2 of the Integrated SEAS test on February 19 and 20, 1977. Within this discussion the following items were specifically addressed.
(1) The licensee stated that they would complete an engineering evaluation of the opening times of valves DH 2733 and DH 2734.
This evaluation would include address appropriate commitments in the FSAR and the proposed Technical Specification.
(2)
The licensee stated that valves which were inoper-able during the tests would be retested individually under the same operating conditions that were present
,
during the test.
(3)
The licensee stated they had issued a 10 CFR 50.55(e)
report on the manual initiation of SFAS. They did not known at this time what the resolution would be to ()

O
.
~
eliminate the need for the operator to hold the
)
manual initiating buttons in until the sequencer ('
/
was off. The inspector stated that this item would s_-
be an open item and that the corrective action should be completed prior to entering Mode 6.
.
(4) The licensee stated that they would review whether it was possible for the sequencers in two companion SFAS channels being out of sequence such that ECCS equipment loads might be dumped on the diesel genera-tor at one time.
The results of the review would be provided to the inspector.
(5) The inspector noted that the first attempt to perform the test was aborted because a design change modification on the 13.8kV bus had not been completed.
The inspector expressed concern as to how this item was missed since it was supposely a pretest punch item.
'
Subsequently to the exit intervie the licensee was
-
informed by telephone on February 25, 1977, that this item would be considered unresolved pending further review by the inspector.
The inspector discussed his review of the preparation of c.
procedures and scheduling of surveillance testing for mode 6 operations (initial fuel loading).
The licensee
,_
/
responded that they would make another an indepth review (
)
of surveillance requirements and that their scheduling of
'
surveillance tests would reflect the latest input from current preoperational testing.
The inspector stated that initiation of surveillance testing should proceed in an orderly fashion to prevent a last minute back log of testing.
(Paragraph 9, Report Details)
d.
The inspector noted that the review of 248 Facility Change Packages and System Revision Notices against their effect completed preoperational tests had not begun. The licensee acknowledged the suggestion that a priority system may be required to insure that those items associated with preoperational tests whose completion is required for fuel loading are reviewed first.

fs Results of Inspection 1.
Licensee Activities Relative to Fire Prevention and Control (F. Maura)
a.
Work Control Procedure Administrative Procedure AD 1844.00 establishes the requirements for controlling and authorizing all maintenance work performed
.
,
within the site or nuclear safety related structures, systems,
!
and components; and non-nuclear safety related components classi-fied as ASME (QA) items.
The procedure does not require operations personnel approval and control of all work, but only for those activities that affect station operations.
According to the licensee the Maintenance Foreman will make that determination.
The licensee agreed to revise the procedure to be more specific of which areas work can be performed without the knowledge and approval of the Shift Foreman.
The inspector stated such area shall not include vital equipment, or other equipr.ent.
The licensee noted the plans were for work performed in the mainten-ance shop, grass cutting, etc.

Administrative Procedure AD 1845.00 and Pcwer Engineering k_/
Instructions DBI-320 and 321 established the requirements s
for controlling and authorizing all design changes'at the site. Any change to existing cable penetrations must be processed in accordance with the above procedures.
Exhibit "B" of PEI DBI-321 consists of a list of suggested design review considerations which are used during steps 6.b, 6.14 and 8.1 of the procedure. The licensee has agreed to include " flammability of materials" as one of the items to be considered during the desigt change review process.
c.
Quality Assurance Surveillance QAP 5130 and QCI 3103 require some degree of quality verification by QA and QC personnel of all maintenance work classified as nuclear safety related/ASME. According to the licensee the
,
audit checklist has not been completed, but will include both on-the-job inspection of work in progress and audit of post
~
work authorizations for proper reviews and approvals.
d.
Emergency Procedures (1) Fire Fighting AD 1827.00, Emergency Plan, specifies who is a member of
's the fire brigade and summarizes EP 1202.35, Fire Emergency
_ )
Procedure.
EP 1202.35 is a general fire fighting pro-cedure for all plant areas which establishes general guidelines and responsibilities.
AP 3009.24 in draft now, covers the fire detection system, inputs to the data logger and in general consists of identification of the area which originated the alarm and verification that the alarm is factual.
Once the fire is identified EP 1202.35 applies.
AD 1827.01, requires that Emergency Plan drills b performed annually. No other Administrative Procedure exists con-cerning fire drills or f're training.
However, it has been the licensee's practics o have weekly fire drills so that every member of the fire brigade participates in a fire drill approximately every two months.
The inspector noted
-
that no drills have been performed auring 1977, but this was explained by the licensee as caused by the extra work load generated by recent operator licensing exams and pre-parations for fuel loading.
As soon as possible the licensee plans to return to the weekly fire drill schedule.

A practical exercise in extinguishing fires using k,)
water and C was performed in 1975.
The licensee has
no plans to perform this type of exercise periodically.
The present fire brigade has been licensed by the state of Ohio. According to the licensee to maintain the certification requires monthly fire drills.
Training is performed under the direction of the Fire Chief who
is a state licensed fire instructor, and also Fire Chief of a nearby volunteer fire department.
In addition, several members of the fire brigade are members of
,
some of the county volunteer fire departments.
(2) Alternate Shutdown and Cooldown EP 1202.33 covers only the unit shutdown and control
in hot standby condition if evacuation of the control room is required.
The licensee has agreed to expand
-
the procedure, as required, to include cooldown of the unit, and the use of alternate methods available to cooldown the unit in case the preferred system is unavailable.
e.
Fire Inspection
's Fire inspections are performed by NELPIA for the licensee.
The inspector reviewed the last NELPIA inspection performed on September 23-24, 1976, and found no references to pro-
-
blems in the area of fire protection.
f.
Emergency Lighting Emergency lighting throughout the plant consists of 120 V incandescent lamps normally AC supplied.
Upon failure of the AC supply an automatic transfer switch transfers the load to the 124 V DC source.
The inspector verified that the lamps in the control room were operable.
The licensee had no plans to periodically verify the operability of the system (lamps or transfer switch), but has agreed to develop such a surveillance procedure.
.
g.
Facility Inspection (1) An inspection of cable penetrations, fire fighting i
equipment, and fire detection equipment was performed
,
in the following areas:

(f)
Oil Storage Room (2)
The following was noted during the inspection:
(a)
The large majority of the fire stop seals (silicon rubber foam) in the control room and cable spread-ing room are yet to be completed. Open penetrations were still noted in the battery rooms, D/G rooms c
and switchgear rooms.
The licensee is aware that these penetrations must be sealed before fuel
'
loading.
(b) Fire protection equipment throughtout the station consists of water sprinklers, hose stations and portable C and
dry chemical extinguishers.
Fire detection equipment
,
!
consists of smoke detectors and thermal detectors.
In i
response to questions from NRC the licensee stated in (~
the FSAR, Section 9.5.4, Page 9.5.4-1, Revision 4, that infrared flame detectors were installed in areas such as the emergency diesel generators and diesel fire pump room.
Instead smoke detectors have been installed.
The licensee stated that infrared detectors are not in use or planned for the station.
This is considered to be a deviation from an FSAR commitment.
,
(c)
Fire hose and portable extinguisher equipment is being inspected and tested in accordance with
,
PT 5113.09 as plant areas are being turned over to operations by construction.
The Fire Chief is responsible for the performance of PT 5113.09.
~
The fire hose stations have been provided with 2 1/2" hose connections which according to the licensee are
-
compatibic with local fire department equipment.
.
(d) During the inspection of the cable spreading room the following was found laying on top of the asbestos blankets covering the cable trays:
several pieces of
'
2" x 4" wood studs which appeared to have been coated with flame retardant paint, two large rags, one Ch

Surveillance Test Program (R. Martin)
~
.
As part of the review of the licensee's operation preparedness in implementing his Quality Assurance Program for Station Operations, the inspector reviewed the licensee's Surveillance Testing Program.
The program activities were compared against commitments made in
.
Chapter 17.2 of the FSAR, and the requirements of Section XI of the ASME Code and the proposed Technical Specifications.
The review included the program elements as described in the AD 1838 series of Administrative Procedures and the Nuclear Quality Assurance Manual.
-
a.
The following program deficiencies were identified.
(1) The controlling procedures do not identify the mechanism l
by which the prompt review of test results for the initial
/h evaluation of system OPERABILITY will be achieved.

(2) The degree and manner of involvement of the QC staff in surveillance matters is not clearly identified.
_
(3) -Section 3.1.1 of AD 1838.01 is not clear as to the applicability of test dates to items covered by Section XI.
The procedure does not describe the method of identifying code components, and'the test does not agree with the surveillance engineer's understanding of how dates are
-
I to be handled.
(4) The procedure does no describe the method by which
,
!
surveillance will be assured during mode changes:
(a) The involvement of Shift Joreman in obtaining the necessary information.
.(b) Training of Shift Foreman to operate the terminal.
e
-
_
(c) Actions to be taken if the terminal is out of service.
-
(5) The Surveillance Test Program does not describe how Section XI pumps which are in the " Alert" range will
,
be identified and the surveillance frequency doubles.
(The inspector understands the licensee plans to utilize
!
this " alert range" option.)
i (6) The enclosure (cross reference) to AD 1838.00.1 has
'
several omissions and errors.
The licensee indicated that a review of this enclosure is planned.
(7)
Enclosure 2 to AD 1838.00 should be reviewed as the duties assigned under.the Title " Foreman" do not always agree with the understandings of the staff as i
to their responsibilities, especially in the matter of
,
the Shift Foreman being the initial management member to
,
review test results, and declare systems operable.
(8) The inspector understands that a change to QCI-331 is planned to indicate the surveillance plans of the QCE
,
staff directly onto the surveillance testing schedule.
The: inspector indicated that an appropriate method
~
,
l should also be developed for those activities not covered by the computer schedule (Daily and Shift Checks).
Since the above items are of a programmatic nature, the licensee was informed that they are to be completed prior to fuel loading.
The licensee also was urged to retain a "hard copy" of
his computer program so that he could re-enter it into
,
the computer easily in the event of computer difficulties.

,
i The results of this review are summarized below:
a.
Six procedures did not indicate prompt review by the Shift Foreman to indicate system operability.
'
b.
Six procedures had Technical Specification values not in agree-ment with the most recent proposed values.
The licensee indicated that it was their decision not to try to change an
~
STP each time the Technical Specification values changed, but to leave those revisions until the specifications were finalized.
<
Five procedures had errors in technical content.
c.
d.
Two procedures called for the use of measuring equipment which was not sufficiently accurate to establish the settings called for in the procedures.

Test Witnessing - Integrated Safety Feature Actuation System (SFAS)
Test Conduct of Phase 2 of pre-operational test TP 310.02 " Integrated SFAS Test" was witnessed to determine whether the test was conducted according to procedure, personnel participiating in the test were adequated indoctrinated as to their responsibilities and the general conduct
'
was satisfactory.
~
Within this review the following problems or observations were identified:
a.
The licensee identified four valves that could not be response tested during the test because specific equipment problems with the valves. Tnese were logged as test deficiencies by the licensee for individual testing on completion of repair work.
-
b.
The licensee initiated test procedure changes to run the
)
test with valves DH 7A and DH 7B (BWST Isolation Valves)
g and DH 2733 and DH 2734 (Decay Heat pumps suction valves)
'-
open.
These changes were made because these valves have a slow open time compared to the starting time of the decay heat pump and could cause damage to the pumps.
Although these valves receive a signal to open on SFAS initiation, they justified the procedure changes on the fact that these valves are normally aligned in the open position.
This alignment is under administrative control.
It was noted that this type testing is not in agreement with the testing requirements covered in Section 6.3.4 and
~
Table 6-17 of the FSAR and the proposed Technical Specifications.
The licensee stated that there was an outstanding nonconformance
,
.
report on valves DH 2733 and DH 2734 covering the opening times-(approximately 80 seconds). The licensee also confirmed that they planned an engineering evaluation on these valves and would initiated appropriate changes.
(There was no indication of what type action would be taken at this time).
c.
The first attempt to run Phase 2 of the test was aborted when the diesel generator started, but failed energize it's bus.
The licensee determinaed that failure of the diesel generator to load on its associated bus was due to an uncompleted field m

change on 13.8kV bus.
Original control design required under-
_,
voltage on both the 13.8kV and 4160 volt buses before diesel generator would load on the 4160V bus. A design change had been initiated and approved.
The test engineer stated that he had received confirmation that the field change had been completed.
The licensee was informed that this item would remain unresolved pending further review as to why this design change had not been completed prior to starting the test.
d.
The second attempt to initiate Phase 2 of the test was aborted when the diesel generator failed to start.
The licensee determined that the diesel failed to start due to an inherent design feature on the actuation of the sequencers in the SFAS circuitry.
If the sequencer receives only a monentary signal it will not complete its sequence and will reset. As in
<
the case of manual actuation by an operator, the momentary pushing of the manual button may not be long enough to lock
-
in the sequencer. The licensee initiated a 50.55(e) report on this deficiency for appropriate review and corrective action.
It was noted that one of the two sequencers apparently did not e.
reset on the monentary manual actuation and completed its sequencer in the second aborted attempt to run the test.
The circuit logic of SFAS requires the combined input of two f-companion channels to initiate one train of SFAS associated (
equipment.
s.
'
In reviewing sequencer operation it was noted that each actuation step has a narrow three second window.
If the designated equipment does not start within this three second window it is blocked
.from starting until the total sequence of starting SFAS associated equipment is complete. At this time the start signal to all equipment is unblocked.
If the sequencers in the two companion SFAS chanr.els should be out of phase (by three seconds), it appears that it is possible to load all SFAS equipment on the diesel at one time. The licensee stated that they would review this potential problem and provide the results to the inspector.

a.
Where possible the licensee plans to use complete pre-s operational tests to meet surveillance testing requirements.
Section Leaders are to review preoperational tests to determine whether they meet surveillance criteria.
To date this information has not been forwarded to the scheduler therefore, a realistic schedule was not available for the inspectors review.
b.
The licensee still has surveillance test procedure in preparation.
c.
A cursory review of identified surveillance requirements indicated a need for the licensee to recheck his current list. A representative of the licensee stated that they were planning to do this.

Reference:
Inspection Report 77-0?, Paragraph 9, Report Details.
The inspector verified that the status of over due AFR responses had been reviewed and that a schedule had been developed for close-out.

Licensee Review of System Revision Notices (SRN)
-
/'~'s Reference:
Inspection Report 77-03, Paragraph 8, Report Details.
('~')
In response to a previous commitment, the licensee has identified 248 SRN's issued to date.
These SRN's have been catalogued to systems and review assignments have been made with a logging system established to document reviews by responsible section heads.
The responsible section heads are to review each assigned SRN against its affect on preoperational testing of a system to determine whether the SRN change requires complete, partial or no retesting of the system.
.
It was noted that because large number of SRN's (248) to be reviewed, the licensee may have to set up a priority system of review to insure that SRN's effecting preoperational testing required prior to fuel
,
loading are completed.
