Monthly Maintenance Observation (62703)
Station maintenance activities of safety-related systems and components were observed / reviewed to ascertain that they were conducted in accordance with approved procedures, regulatory guides, industry codes 'and standards, and were in conformance with Technical Specifications.
'The following items were considered during the review: limiting conditions for operations were met while components - or systems were removed from service; approvals were obtained prior to initiating the work; activities were accomplished using approved procedures.and were inspected as appli-cable; functional testing and/or calibrations ~.were performed prior to-returning components or systems to service; quality control' records were-maintained; activities were accomplished by qualified personnel; parts _ and
- materials were properly certified; radiological controls were implemented; and fire prevention controls were implemented.
Work requests were reviewed t'o determine the statuI of outstanding jobs to assure that priority was assigned to safety-related equipment-maintenance which may affect system performance. The following maintenance activities-were observed / reviewed:
.IB charging pump reduction gear-oil cooler.
-
Unit 2 letdown-relief valve.
-

Operational Safety Verification (71707)
a.
The inspectors observed control room operations, reviewed applicable logs and conducted discussions with control room operators during the report period.
The inspectors verified the operability of selected emergency systems, reviewed tagout records, and verified prcper return to service of affected components. Tours of "e auxiliary, diesel, and turbine ouildings were conducted _to observe piant equipment conditions, including fluid leaks and excessive vibrations.
b.
The ' inspectors verified compliance with _ selected Limited Condition for Operations. (LCO) and _.results of selected surveillance tests.
.The
' verifications-were, accomplished by direct observation of monitoring
-
instrumentation, valve positions, _ switch positions and review' of completed logs, records, and chemistry-results.
The licensee's compliance with LCO action statements were reviewed as they happened.
The'following systems and components were observed / verified opera-
.
tional:
,
-
Station electrical boards in the control room and various elec-trical boards throughout the plant for proper electrical align-ment.
Certain accessible hydraulic snubbers.
-
Accessible portions of service water and component cooling water-
-
systems.
.
Units 1 and 2_ suction. and. discharging piping and valves on
-
auxiliary feedwater system.
,
Diesel generators and support systems.
-
Certain accessible portions ~ of.CVCS piping and valves to and from
-
.the charging /high_ head safety injection pumps.
-
.
Certain portions of RHR'and containment' spray systems.
-
- Portions of various. other systems -(safety-related and. nonsafety -
-
related).
c.
The inspectors ' routinely attended meetings 'with 'certain -licensee
~
~
management and observed-various sh'.ft turnovers 'between shift super-visors,- shift ' foremen, and licensed operators.
These meetings and -
' discussions provided a. daily status of plant operating, maintenance,-
i-and. testing-' activities in -progress-as well as discussions of
,
significant problems.

d.
The inspector verified.by observation and interviews with security l
force members that measures taken to assure the physical protection of
'
the facility met current requirements.
Areas inspected included the organization of the security force; the establishment and maintenance of gates, doors, and isolation zones; that access control and badging were proper; and procedures were followed.
e.
The Resident inspectors observed plant security guard firearms requalification at the on-site firing range on 10-1-85. Security guard requalification consisted of firing a 38 caliber revolver and 12 guage shotgun at silhouette targets for score and other familiarization exercises such as firing at night. and running 50 yards drawing and firing.
Security guard supervision was also observed requalifying with the appropriate weapons.
The requalification course was run safely and competently by' Alabama Power Company instructors.
f.
During an inspection of Unit I auxiliary feedwater system the inspec-tor found a damaged flexible conduit on the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump trip throttle valve MOV-3406. The conduit connected limit switches on one side of the valve to other controls on.the opposite side. The conduit formed a loop and was resting on the hot bonnet of the valve.
The outer covering of the conduit had deterio-rated away to expose the metal' flex of the conduit. The metal flex was also deteriorating. The inspector informed the Unit 1-Shift Supervisor who immediately initiated corrective action to get the conduit off the hot valve bonnet.
The flexible conduit has been replaced with new conduit and reroJted to not contact the hot portion of the valve.
Unit 2 does not have this problem.
g.
On September 24, 1985 Unit I annunciator on. "C" reactor coolant pump indicated a low oil level alarm.
The licensee isolated the alarm to the lower oil reservoir.
Unit.. load was decreased to 37% power and a
~
'
containment entry was made to verify the level-'was low. Oil was added
,
to the reservoir to return' it to normal level. The location of the oil leak could not be determined although there was an oilL film present.
The' unit was returned to full power operation.
.
Within the areas inspected no violations.or deviations were identified.

Engineered Safety Systems Inspection (71710)
- The inspectors performed various _ system ~-inspections during.the inspection period.
These. inspections: were performed by the sinspectors observing ~ four system -operators over a.two day period in their ' assigned. work area per-forming their operating duties in the radiation controlled areas of the Unit-1 and. Unit ;2 auxiliary buildings.
Overall plant conditions were assessed with - particular. attention to equipment condition, radiological control s,-
security, safety, adherence to-technical specification requirements, systems
