.

.

The inspector reviewed the following deferred *preoperational test procedures for completeness with regard to:

a.

Meeting acceptance criteria.

b.

Appropriate management review and approval.

<

Conformance to the requirement of administrative procedures.

c.

The review of deferred sections of the test packages included review of tempcrary and major procedure changes, QC verification sheets, chronological logs, resolution of deficiency reports and other related material.

i The plant plans to essentially duplicate any data.to be a.

taken by the contractor and that any independent analysis of the data pertinent to the test would be included.

(Sections 1 and 7 of the procedure)

b.

During the initial oper'r. ion of the reactor coolant pumps (Section 7.2) it is intended to look at vib^ rations in the

.

O to 25 hertz range to check for indications of core barrel movement.

It is also intended to select specific channels for recording at the same time for coherence evaluation (such as upper and lower channels on the reactor vesse't).

TP 800.26 - Loss of External Load Including Offsite Power Test.

The licensee stated that this test procedure would be rewritten

<

to meet cl.a intent of Reg Guide 1.68 for the loss of offsite power.

As originally written the test procedure would test the plant normal response to a loss of offsite power (same as load rejection). Howe've r, it did not cover the situation of an ab-normal plant response in that load shedding between essential and nonessential buses and loading of the diesel generators were not tested.

ps The licensee stated that they would run the test in two steps.

(

One diesel generator would be started and loaded prior to the test. The test then would be repeated with the other diesel generator running and loaded and the first diesel generator in standby. This would insure seal water flow to the reactor

coolant pumps and prevent possible damage to the seals.

TP 710.01 - Zero Power Physic Test.

,

Final review of this test procedure by the inspector is pending a request for technica'l assistance regarding the technique proposed by the licensee to measure the reactivity worth of the mos t reactive stuck rod.

TP 800.00 - Power Escalation Sequence.

The procedure provides the sequence of testing from completion of Zero Power Physic Test through 100% rated core power operations setting forth the requirements for each sequencial power escala tion.

The procedure was found acceptable.

License Amendment No. 1 By letter dated May 20, 1977, from L. E. Roe to J. F. Stolz, the license requested an amendment to Appendix A, Section 3.4.1.a, of their operating license.

A review of Station Review Board (SRB)

minutc3 for the period May 5 through May 20, 1977, indicated that the proposed amendment to the licensee had not been officially reviewed by th. SRB as required by Section 6.5.1.6.c of th.

.

Technical Specifications (Appendix A to the license). This is considered to be an item of noncompliance with the requirements of Section 6.5.1.6.c of the Technical Specifications.

Furth e rmo re, in the review of Power Engineering Instructions (PEI's) (See Paragraph 6) it was noted that PEI 333, License Amendments, and PEI 334 Safety Evaluations were still in the abstract form. These two, rocedures cover the internal control for license amendments.

~

During a subsequent part of chis inspection it was noted that:

a.

The SRB had completed their official review of the reques ted license amendment.

(May 31, 1977)

b.

The SRB had completed and documented their review of subsequent

,

request for license amendments.

w N-c.

PEI 333 and PEI 334 were issued as procedures on June 6 and June 1

, 1977, respectively.

Based upon these findings, the corrective action of the licensee appears to be adequate to prevent recurrence.

6.

Review of Power Engineering Instruction; (PEI's)

While reviewing tr a above PEI's to determine if reviaions had occurred as discussed during the inspection covered by inspection report No. 50-346/76-23, the inspector noted that the following

,

'

PEI's were still in abstract form.

'

323 Document Distribution Control 333 License Amdendments 334 Safety Evaluations 351 Work Package 361 Test Procedure-Design Considerations S-015 Corrective Action Requests i

During a subsequent part of the inspection the inspector reviewed PEI's-333, 334, and S-015 which were issued June 8 June 1 and May 27, 1977, res pec t ive ly.

A representative of the licensee stated the other three procedurcs are being actively worked on.

Current schedule calls for the

.

procedures to be completed the week of June 27.

7.

Dil 11 and 12 Valve Pit Leak Test The inspector reviewed the results of the construction leak test

'

or 'ne valve pit of Decay Heat Valves 11 and 12.

The test in-

,

volved a vacuum test of the scaled valve pit to insure the water tightness of the pit during a postulated LOCA.

It was noted that

-

the acceptance criteria was met.

Prior to the test the inspector reviewed the cal _ulations for determining the acceptance criteria to determine whether the leak test would meet the requirements of Technical Specifications.

<

The method was found acceptable.

The station has written a surveillance test procedure based upon the same seceptance criteria to cover routine surveillance requirements and resealing of the pit after any maintenance work.

8.

Review of Deviation Reports (DVR's)

DVR's issued to date were reviewed to determine whether the requirement of AD 1807.00 were being followed and if reporting requirements of the Technical Specifications were being met.

Within this review it was noted that there was not complete adherence to procedure AD 1507.00 in that DVR's were being dis-tributed prior to signoff by the Technical Engineer, Station Review Board, and Station Superintendent and that followup action and resolution was not being signed off per Sections 6.11 l

and 6.12. filed per 6.13 of the procedure.

Two examples are DVR 008-1 and 009-1, dated May 27, and 28,1977, respectively.

Failure to follow procedure AD 1807.30 is. considered to be an item of noncompliance with the requirements of the approved QA manual.

9.

Review of Station Review Board (SRB) Minutes SRB minutes were reviewed for the periods of April 16 through June 10, 1977, to determine whether violations of Technical

,

Specifications ore being reviewed as required by Section 6.5.1.6 of the Technical Specif* :ti;..a.

Within this review it was noted that the reportable occurrence No. NP-33-77-2 (inadvertent boron diluation due to improper adjusted control valve) was not documented as having been reviewed by the SHD.

This failure to document the review f' x as requir ed *, rection 6.5.1.8 of the Technical Specifications (

is co9sidered to be an item of noncompliance.

Review of Pla'nt Operations Unit log books, operating orders, and jumper-lift wire logs were reviewed for compliance with administrative procedures and Technical specifications requirement.

The unit logs from April 24, 1977 through May 24,1977 were

reviewed.

Standing Orders 1 through 18 and Special Orders

,

81 through 87 were reviewed.

The jumper-lifted wire log was reviewed.

The inspector noted that a significant number of outstanding jumper-lifted wires existed dating back to 1975.

No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.

11.

Decay Heat Suction Valves A member of a TECo operations shift crew contacted RIII on May 2,1977, concerning the proper interpretation of a facility license condition which specifies when power is re-

quired on the valve operators for decay heat suction valves DH-ll and DH-12.

The inspector discussed the interpretation

,

i of the license condition with the licensee and reviewed the l

l'~ h following documents relative to the station's implementation

'

(s,,/

of the license condition.

$

a.

Proposed FSAR Revision No. 27, submitted to the NRC on April 7, 1977.

b.

Temporary modification request T-1531 to SP 1104.04,

" Decay Heat and Low Pressure Injection Operation Procedure."

l The licensee committed to implement similar modifications prior to entering Mode 5 for procedures:

PP 1102.02, " Plant Startup

,

Procedure," and PP 1102.10, " Station Shutdown and Cooldown,"

Based on the inspector's review of the above material, the licensce's interpretation and implementation was determined to be correct. The inspector has no further questions regarding

'

this matter.

12.

Overpressure Protection i

,

A condition to the operating license states:

" Prior to entering

-

' Mode 5 (Cold Shutdoun), Toledo Edison Company shall make a modification which ensures that the decay heat removal relief valve would actuate prior to automatic closure of the isolation valves. This change will allow the relief valve to be available w _

for mitigating the consequences of an overpressure event."

13.

Surveil 1ance Test Procedures

,

.

.

The inspector reviewed the status of surveillance test pro-cedures required prior to entering Mode 5.

Four procedures require SRB recommendation and plant superintendent approval:

ST 5030.02, ST 5036.02, ST 5036.03, and ST 5036.04.

Five procedures require plant superintendent approval only:

ST 5030.09, ST 5031.14, ST 5050.02, ST 5051.01, and ST 5030.13.

The licensee stated that procedure ST 5030.12 had been reviewed and approved, however, it was not available for inspection.

Completion of these procedures was later verified by the inspector prior to the plant entering Mode 5 operations.

14.

Nonconformance Reports The inspector reviewed the status of outstanding NCR's that have Mode 5 restraints.

,-_

)

a.
