2. Action on Previous Inspection Findings (Closed) Violation (373/85026-01): During a previous inspection conducted in August,1985, the in::pector noted that Unit 1 drywell temperatures near safety-related components exceeded Technical Specification 3.7.7. limits, and the environmental qualification requirements, this condition existed for at least seven months. The licensee's original correlation study used to assure compliance with the temperature limitations imposed by the Technical Specifications and E.Q. requirements was found to be erroneous. Also during the original violation, the containment monitoring recorders in the control room did not alert the plant staff to the excessive drywell temperatures. A special report to the commission required by T.S. 3.7.7, was not submitte The inspector reviewed the corrective action taken by the licensee to resolve the deficiencies previously identified by the inspecto The licensee has subsequently forwarded a special report to document all temperature excursions which occurred during the period January 1984 to August 1985. (DVR 1-1-85-166). The licensee has issued a permanent station procedure (LTP-300-17)

to clearly define data gathering, handling, and reporting requirement .

.

Environmental qualification limits were recalculated to correlate more closely with the 150 F limit in Technical Specification 3. The licensee also evaluated the remaining qualified life of components that have exceeded the previous environmental qualification threshold limit temperatures. During the Unit 1 ;

refueling outage the licensee located the cause of the local hot l spots in the vicinity of the SRV's and implemented various i modifications to correct the proble Licensee's corrective actions in this area were found to be adequate to maintain the drywell temperatures to within Technical Specifications and E.Q. limits, presuming that applicable procedures are followe b. (Closed) Violation (373/85026-03): This violation concerned licensee's failure to establish adequate surveillance and work procedures for monitoring drywell temperatures and evaluating the data note The inspector reviewed licensee's corrective action including a field inspection and a review of actual procedure implementatio The licensee has written station procedure LTP-300-17 to govern drywell temperature data collection and followup. Routine performance of activities controlled by this procedure is scheduled as part of the station general surveillance progra The procedure includes temperature trigger set points and guidelines for accelerated data gathering when higher than normal temperatures are encountered. The procedure also includes a mechanism for formal transmittal of temperature data to the engineering department for evaluation and approval of changes to the acceptance criteri The procedure also specifies required notifications and engineering evaluations to be performed if E.Q. limits are exceeded. In addition to issuing procedure LTP-300-17, the licensee has also revised the drywell close out procedure (LOP-DW-01) to require that the Maintenance Foreman in charge of the work perform an inspection of the work location when the work has been completed. This inspection will insure that work performed inside the drywell (such as insulation seal tight, hangers, and fire proofing on structural steel) will not result in any deterioration of equipment or components in the are (0 pen) Unresolved Item (374/8404-03): This item concerned sensing lines to instruments, 2PDI-VY009 and 2PDI-VY026, which were observed by the inspector to be disconnected, while test reports indicated that these instruments were verified to be connected and back in service. These pressure differential indicators are classified as nonsafety-related, however they are mounted inside safety-related racks. The inspector raised the concern that since these devices are classified nonsafety, (not requiring category I, QA/C.C. review)

and are mounted inside safety-related racks, any work performed on the nonsafety devices might affect the safety-related portion

,.

i

.

.

of the panel. Therefore, consideration should be given to classifying the work performed on the nonsafety devices mounted on safety-related equipment as safety-related work so that QA/QC review will be require During this inspection the inspectors discussed this matter with the licensee. The licensee indicated that several available engineering options are being considered to resolve this issu The licensee stated that the inspector will be informed as to the resolution of this issue pending licensee action, this item remains unresolve (Closed) Violation (373/85039-01;374/85040-01): The original violation found that the licensee failed to document correctly or omitted documenting electrical jumpers on terminations which were shown on schematic and connection diagram Required jumpers were documented as N/A on the station traveler and consequently were not appropriately identified and inspected. In addition, the inspection records failed to reference a schematic drawing or a connection diagram and revision and/or date as required. During this inspection the inspector examined licensee's corrective action in response to this violation which included a comprehensive review of all records generated during the initial stages of the inspection of limitorque valve motor operator The licensee noted that all discrepancies in the inspection packages were identified and corrected. An actual reinspection of the valves in the field was conducted by the licensee to resolve the discrepancies noted during the review. Further guidance was developed by the licensee to document all jumper inspections. During the reinspection, the licensee replaced several jumper wires which were not clearly identifie . Subsequent to the NRC inspection, all inspections performed have utilized the revised documentation requirements. The inspector selected three limitorque valves for inspection of this functional area (see Paragraph 3 for details). The licensee's actions in this area are adequate to close this ite (Closed) Violation (374/85013-05 (Part b)): During a previous inspection the inspector noted that Logic Diagram M-5444 sh 2, dated tune 15, 1977, did not contain the " Caution" stamp required by pro;edure LAP-810-5 on all drawings which are not to be used for maintenance, operation, design, or other activitie Corrective action taken by the licensee included a review on Logic Block Diagrams contained in the Central File Facilit Only one discrepancy was noted out of a total of greater than 200 Logic Diagrams reviewed. This appears to be an isolated occurrence. The licensee's actions in this area are adequate to close this ite (0 pen) Violation (374/85013-05 (Part a)): This item concerns lifted lead No. LL130 which was shown as restored to normal on the Temporary System Change Log although the lead was observed

The licensee indicated that work request No. 59993 will be written to correct the discrepant switch designations. No further deficiencies were identifie The inspector noted that licensee's documentation and approach to resolution of identified deficiencies has been improve . Review of Temporary System Changes The inspector reviewed the licensee temporary system changes such as electrical jumpers and lifted leads as delineated in station procedure LAP-240-6 Revision 11, entitled " Temporary System Changes." The inspector selected entries No. 1-114-83, No. 1-143-83, and No. 1-790-84 from the Temporary System Change Log book located in the shift engineers offic The inspector conducted a field inspection to ascertain whether the log accurately reflects the field change The following conditions were observed:

(1) Attachment B of procedure LAP-240-6 Revision 4 log number 1-790-84 documented a temporary jumper installed in MCC 135X-1 compartment G4 between points X2 and OL. This jumper was installed on August 30, 1984. Field inspection indicated that the temporary jumper is placed in the proper position and is ;

properly tagged. This jumper was installed to bypass the thermal overload for valve 1G33-F040 (RWCU Return to Feedwater Isolation Valve) so that the thermal overload will not trip the valve during its operation. The inspector noted that a caution card was placed on the unit I switch controlling valve 1G33-F040 but Unit 2 switch for valve 2G33-F040 did not have the caution card placed by it to indicate to operator that the thermal overload is being bypassed. Subsequently, the licensee initiated the required documentation to place the caution tag on the Unit 2 switc L

-.

(2) Attachment B of procedure LAP-240-6 log number 1-114-83 documented lifted leads LL 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 247, 249, 250, 252, 253, 257, 258, 259, and 260 which were installed on March 23, 198 (a) LL 257 and 258 were placed on temporary jumper No. 320 located inside H Recombiner panel 2PLF3J compartment

CB1 (b) LL 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, and 246 were placed on both sides of the Raychem splice made to bypass the feed breaker which was found to be not qualified for the environmen The inspector questioned the fact that all the lifted lead tags were placed on either the temporary jumper (No. 320) or on the both sides of the Raychem splice and none of the leads were lifte (c) Unit 1 panel 1PLF3J contained an identical setup as the Unit 2 pane (d) Panel 1PLF3J contained a caution tag which referred to Jumper log No. 1-114-83. Attachment A of LAP-240-6 entitled Temporary System Change log Unit 1, but log entry on this attachment contained LL numbers from both Units 1 and (e) J 309, 310, 311, 312, 313, 314, 315, 316, 317, and 318 had been restored on Attachment B, log No.- 1-114-83 on December 3, 1985 and October 31, 1985 but Attachment A does not note date of restoration or authorization to restore these connection (f) Item F.1.e of procedure LAP-240-6 states that the

" Temporary System Change Form," Attachment B, is maintained in the shift engineer's office. During this inspection the inspector noted that the Attachment B, of log No. 1-114-83 was givcn to the craftsman for an extended period of time. Attachment "B" was not found in the log

during this inspectio (g) Procedure LAP-240-6 Paragraph (3.a.2) requires that a physical audit of all temporary changes more than one week old be conducted to assure proper installation as described l

by the appropriate Attachment B documentation. However,

'

no required time interval for conducting this audit has been se (h) Paragraph 3, b and c of procedure LAP-240-6 requires that for temporary changes longer than three months the Tech

.

Presently there is no requirement for the Tech Staff engineers to formally submit their engineering evaluation to the shift engineer. This may allow temporary changes to exist for extended periods in violation of the intent of the procedur (i) The inspector noted that many so called temporary changes were installed in the field prior to 198 Many of these modifications are still in plac (j) During the inspection, it was discovered that certain temporary modifications (as delineated in the Temporary jumper log) were not identified on the associated aperature cards. The leads to a situation in which individuals referring to the aperture cards would not be aware of the Temporary jumper or modifications in progres This item is considered unresolved pending licensee and NRC further review (373/86030-01,374/86031-01)

5. Unresolved items Unresolved items are matters about which more information is required in order to ascertain whether they are acceptable items, violations, or deviations. Unresolved items disclosed during the inspection are discussed in Paragraph . Exit Interview The inspectors met with the licensee representatives at the conclusion of the inspection on July 24, 1986, and summarized the scope and findings of the inspection. The licensee acknowledged the statements made by the inspectors. The inspectors also discussed the likely infonnational

,

content of the inspection report with regard to documents reviewed by the inspector during the inspection. The licensee did not identify any such documents as proprietary.
