SUBJECT:
WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT 3 - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000382/2009005 ERRATA
Dear Mr. Kowalewski:
Please replace the subject integrated inspection report, ML Number 100360782, dated February 5, 2010, with the attached errata inspection report. The attached errata report contains a revision that was necessary to properly document a biennial licensed operator requalification inspection that was completed on November 20, 2009.
On December 31, 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on January 11, 2010, with you and other members of your staff.
The inspections examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
This report documents three self-revealing findings of very low safety significance (Green). All of these findings were determined to involve violations of NRC requirements. Additionally, a licensee-identified violation, which was determined to be of very low safety significance, is listed in this report. However, because of the very low safety significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these findings as noncited violations, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the violations or the significance of the noncited violations, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001, with copies to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Region IV, 612 E Lamar Blvd, Suite 400, Arlington, Texas, 76011-4125; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident
Entergy Operations, Inc. -2-Inspector at the Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 facility. In addition, if you disagree with the characterization of any finding in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region IV, and the NRC Resident Inspector at Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3. The information you provide will be considered in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0305.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000382/2009005; October 8, 2009 through December 31, 2009; Waterford Steam Electric
Station, Unit 3, Identification and Resolution of Problems, Access Control to Radiologically Significant Areas The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by regional based inspectors. Three Green noncited violations of NRC requirements were identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process. Findings for which the significance determination process does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process, Revision 4, dated December 2006.
NRC-Identified Findings and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
- Green.
A self-revealing Green noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B,
Criterion XVI, was identified for the licensees failure to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, the licensee did not promptly correct reactor coolant pump vapor seal leakage that resulted in boric acid accumulation on the component cooling water heat exchanger and cover areas of three reactor coolant pumps. Corrective actions for this condition were implemented during Refueling Outage 15, but these corrective actions failed to correct the condition and the vapor seal leakage continued through operating Cycle 16. This resulted in some additional boric acid corrosion and degradation to reactor coolant pump covers and carbon steel component cooling water flanges. The licensee implemented a design modification to correct the condition and documented the condition in Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-5501.
The licensees failure to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability. The finding has very low safety significance because, although the finding contributes to the likelihood of a reactor trip, mitigation equipment was still available. This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with work control in that the licensee did not effectively plan for the resources necessary to implement the postmaintenance testing associated with the corrective actions implemented during Refueling Outage 15, and therefore failed to discover that those corrective actions were inadequate to correct the condition H.3(a)
(Section 4OA2).
- Green.
A self-revealing Green noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B,
Criterion V, was identified for the licensees failure to prescribe an activity affecting quality by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings appropriate to the circumstance. Specifically, for all reactor coolant pump heat exchanger to pump cover bolted connection gasket replacements between the refueling outage of 1986 (Refueling Outage 1) and the refueling outage of 2009 (Refueling Outage 16), the licensee prescribed the wrong gasket material, gasket size, and fastener preload because they had failed to incorporate a design change implemented during Refueling Outage 1 into their instructions, procedures, or drawings. Station Modification Package SMP-1427, an engineering change implemented during Refueling Outage 1 in response to industry operating experience, called for a thicker gasket, different gasket material, and an increased bolt preload in order to increase gasket compression and reduce the probability of leakage. As a consequence of failing to incorporate Station Modification Package SMP-1427 changes into procedures, all heat exchanger gasket replacements since Refueling Outage 1, four gasket replacements in total, have utilized thinner gaskets with less than the vendor recommended compression. The licensee documented this condition in Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-5501.
The licensees failure to prescribe appropriate gasket replacement requirements is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability. The finding has very low safety significance because, although the finding contributes to the likelihood of a reactor trip, mitigation equipment is still available. This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with operating experience in that the licensee did not institutionalize operating experience through changes to the station procedures
P.2(b) (Section 4OA2).
Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety
- Green.
The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing noncited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1 which resulted from a worker failing to follow radiation protection procedures. A contract radiation worker went to work near steam generator 1 rather than the area for which he/she was briefed and received multiple electronic dosimeter dose rate alarms, but did not leave the area until receiving a continuous dose alarm. In response, the licensee investigated the occurrence and restricted the individuals access. Additional actions were being evaluated. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Reports CR-WF3-2009-05648 and WF3-2009-06852.
- This finding is greater than minor because it involved the program attribute of exposure control and affected the cornerstone objective in that the failure of the worker to follow procedural guidance resulted in the worker being unknowledgeable to the dose rates in all areas entered. The inspectors used the
Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process and determined the finding had very low safety significance because it was not:
(1) an as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) finding, (2) an overexposure, (3) a substantial potential for overexposure, or (4) an inability to assess dose.
The finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance, work practices component, because the worker failed to use human error prevention techniques such as self and peer checking H.4(a) (Section 2OS1).
Licensee-Identified Violations
A violation of very low safety significance, which was identified by the licensee, has been reviewed by the inspectors. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensees corrective action program. This violation and corrective action tracking numbers (condition report numbers) are listed in Section 4OA7.
REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant Status
The plant began the inspection period on October 8, 2009, at 100 percent power and remained at approximately 100 percent power until October 19, 2009, when the plant was shutdown in preparation of the licensees planned Refueling Outage 16. The plant remained shutdown until December 1, 2009, when the reactor was placed back online and the licensee began increasing power. On December 6, 2009, the plant reached 100 percent power and continued to operate at this level for the remainder of the inspection period.
REACTOR SAFETY
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, and Emergency Preparedness
1R01 Adverse Weather Protection
.1 Readiness to Cope with External Flooding
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors evaluated the design, material condition, and procedures for coping with the design basis probable maximum flood. The evaluation included a review to check for deviations from the descriptions provided in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report for features intended to mitigate the potential for flooding from external factors. As part of this evaluation, the inspectors checked for obstructions that could prevent draining, checked that the roofs did not contain obvious loose items that could clog drains in the event of heavy precipitation, and determined that barriers required to mitigate the flood were in place and operable. Additionally, the inspectors performed a walkdown of the protected area to identify any modification to the site that would inhibit site drainage during a probable maximum precipitation event or allow water ingress past a barrier.
The inspectors also reviewed the abnormal operating procedure for mitigating the design basis flood to ensure it could be implemented as written. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of one external flooding sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R04 Equipment Alignments
.1 Partial Walkdown
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant systems:
- October 8, 2009, Essential chiller train B
- October 14, 2009, Low pressure safety injection train B The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the reactor safety cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could affect the function of the system, and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, technical specification requirements, administrative technical specifications, outstanding work orders, condition reports, and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of performing their intended functions. The inspectors also walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the components and observed operating parameters of equipment to verify that there were no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the corrective action program with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of two partial system walkdown samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R05 Fire Protection
.1 Quarterly Fire Inspection Tours
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors conducted fire protection walkdowns that were focused on availability, accessibility, and the condition of firefighting equipment in the following risk-significant plant areas:
- November 2, 2009, Fuel handling building
- November 10, 2009, Fire zones RAB 37, 38, and 39
- November 28, 2009, Reactor containment building
- December 15, 2009, Battery and switchgear areas The inspectors reviewed areas to assess if licensee personnel had implemented a fire protection program that adequately controlled combustibles and ignition sources within the plant; effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability; maintained passive fire protection features in good material condition; and had implemented adequate compensatory measures for out of service, degraded or inoperable fire protection equipment, systems, or features, in accordance with the licensees fire plan.
The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk as documented in the plants Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later additional insights, their potential to affect equipment that could initiate or mitigate a plant transient, or their impact on the plants ability to respond to a security event. Using the documents listed in the attachment, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed, that transient material loading was within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to be in satisfactory condition. The inspectors also verified that minor issues identified during the inspection were entered into the licensees corrective action program.
Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of four quarterly fire-protection inspection samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.
c. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R06 Flood Protection Measures
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, the flooding analysis, and plant procedures to assess susceptibilities involving internal flooding; reviewed the corrective action program to determine if licensee personnel identified and corrected flooding problems; and verified that operator actions for coping with flooding can reasonably achieve the desired outcomes. The inspectors also walked down the area listed below to verify the adequacy of equipment seals located below the flood line, floor and wall penetration seals, watertight door seals, common drain lines and sumps, sump pumps, level alarms, and control circuits, and temporary or removable flood barriers.
- October 14, 2009, Reactor Auxiliary Building -35 foot elevation This inspection procedure also requires an annual review of risk-significant cables located in underground bunkers/manholes. Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3, by
design, does not have any safety-related cables that are located in underground bunkers/manholes; however, there are 17 manholes in which cables associated with maintenance rule related equipment were located. The inspectors inspected Manholes M301-NA, M346-NB, and M347-NA and determined that all three contained maintenance rule related cables submerged in water. The submerged cables did not show visible deterioration. The licensee has documented this condition in Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-3925, and is developing a cable monitoring program. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
This activity constitutes completion of two flood protection measures inspection samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.06-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R07 Heat Sink Performance
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed licensee programs, verified performance against industry standards, and reviewed critical operating parameters and maintenance records for the steam generators. The inspectors verified that performance tests were satisfactorily conducted for heat exchangers/heat sinks and reviewed for problems or errors; the licensee utilized the periodic maintenance method outlined in EPRI Report NP 7552, Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Guidelines; the licensee properly utilized biofouling controls; the licensees heat exchanger inspections adequately assessed the state of cleanliness of their tubes; and the heat exchanger was correctly categorized under 10 CFR 50.65, Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of one heat sink inspection sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.07-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R08 In-service Inspection Activities
Completion of Sections
.1 through .5, below, constitutes completion of one sample as
defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.

During the review and observation of each examination, the inspectors verified that activities were performed in accordance with the ASME Code requirements and applicable procedures. The inspectors also verified the qualifications of all nondestructive examination technicians performing the inspections were current.
The inspectors verified, by review, that the welding procedure specifications and the welders had been properly qualified in accordance with ASME Code,Section IX, requirements. The inspectors also verified, through observation and record review, that essential variables for the welding process were identified, recorded in the procedure qualification record, and formed the basis for qualification of the welding procedure specifications. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These actions constitute completion of the requirements for Section 02.01.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Vessel Upper Head Penetration Inspection Activities (71111.08-02.02)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the results of licensee personnels visual inspection of pressure-retaining components above the reactor pressure vessel head to verify that there was no evidence of leaks or boron deposits on the surface of the reactor pressure vessel head or related insulation. The inspectors verified that the personnel performing the visual inspection were certified as Level II and Level III VT-2 examiners. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
The inspectors also reviewed the results of licensee personnels volumetric inspection of pressure-retaining components above the reactor pressure vessel head to verify that there were no flaws in the welds associated with these penetrations. The inspectors observed data acquisition and analysis of one penetration. The inspector verified that the personnel performing the inspections were current in their certification as Level II or Level III ultrasonic testing examiners. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These actions constitute completion of the requirements for Section 02.02.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.3 Boric Acid Corrosion Control Inspection Activities (71111.08-02.03)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors evaluated the implementation of the licensees boric acid corrosion control program for monitoring degradation of those systems that could be adversely affected by boric acid corrosion. The inspectors reviewed the documentation associated with the licensees boric acid corrosion control walkdown as specified in Procedure NOECP-107, Boric Acid Corrosion Control Program (BACCP), Revision 1. The
inspectors also reviewed the visual records of the components and equipment. The inspectors verified that the visual inspections emphasized locations where boric acid leaks could cause degradation of safety-significant components. The inspectors also verified that the engineering evaluations for those components where boric acid was identified gave assurance that the ASME Code wall thickness limits were properly maintained. The inspectors confirmed that the corrective actions performed for evidence of boric acid leaks were consistent with requirements of the ASME Code. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These actions constitute completion of the requirements for Section 02.03.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.4 Steam Generator Tube Inspection Activities (71111.08-02.04)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors assessed the in-situ screening criteria to assure consistency between assumed nondestructive examination flaw sizing accuracy and data from the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) examination technique specification sheets. No conditions were identified that warranted in-situ pressure testing. The inspectors did, however, review the licensees Steam Generator Degradation Assessment and Repair Criteria for RF15, dated April 2008, and compared the in-situ test screening parameters to the guidelines contained in the EPRI document In Situ Pressure Test Guidelines, Revision 2. This review determined that the screening parameters were consistent with the EPRI guidelines.
In addition, the inspectors reviewed both the licensee site-validated and qualified acquisition and analysis technique sheets used during this refueling outage and the qualifying EPRI examination technique specification sheets to verify that the essential variables regarding flaw sizing accuracy, tubing, equipment, technique, and analysis had been identified and qualified through demonstration. The inspectors reviewed acquisition technique and analysis technique data sheets.
The inspection procedure specified comparing the estimated size and number of tube flaws detected during the current outage against the previous outage operational assessment predictions to assess the licensees prediction capability. The inspectors compared the previous outage operational assessment predictions with the flaws identified during the current steam generator tube inspection effort. The number of identified indications fell below the range of prediction but was consistent with historical predictions.
The inspection procedure specified confirmation that the steam generator tube eddy current test scope and expansion criteria meet technical specification requirements, EPRI guidelines, and commitments made to the NRC. The inspectors compared the
recommended test scope to the actual test scope and found that the licensee had accounted for all known flaws and had, as a minimum, established a test scope that met technical specification requirements, EPRI guidelines, and commitments made to the NRC. The scope of the licensees eddy current examinations of tubes in both steam generators included:
- 100 percent bobbin examination full length of tubing
- 100 percent hot leg top of tube sheet
- 100 percent Rows 1 and 2 u-bend rotating pancake coil
- 100 percent dented tube supports at egg crates greater than 2 Volts
- 20 percent dented diagonal bar and vertical strap greater than 2 Volts
- 20 percent free span dings greater than 5 Volts
- Cold leg top of tube sheet periphery exam for loose parts The inspection procedure specified that, if new degradation mechanisms were identified, the licensee would verify the analysis fully enveloped the problem of the extended conditions including operating concerns and that appropriate corrective actions were taken before plant startup. No new degradation mechanisms were identified.
The inspection procedure required confirmation that the licensee inspected all areas of potential degradation, especially areas that were known to represent potential eddy current test challenges (e.g., top-of-tubesheet, tube support plates, and U-bends). The inspectors confirmed that all known areas of potential degradation were included in the scope of inspection and were being inspected.
The inspection procedure further required verification that repair processes being used were approved in the technical specifications. The inspectors confirmed that the repair processes being used were consistent with the technical specifications requirements.
The inspection procedure also required confirmation of adherence to the technical specification plugging limit, unless alternate repair criteria have been approved. The inspection procedure further requires determination whether depth sizing repair criteria were being applied for indications other than wear or axial primary water stress corrosion cracking in dented tube support plate intersections. The inspectors determined that the technical specification plugging limits were being adhered to (i.e., 40 percent maximum through-wall indication).
If steam generator leakage greater than 3 gallons per day was identified during operations or during post shutdown visual inspections of the tubesheet face, the inspection procedure required verification that the licensee had identified a reasonable cause based on inspection results and that corrective actions were taken or planned to address the cause for the leakage. The inspectors did not conduct any assessment because this condition did not exist.
The inspection procedure required confirmation that the eddy current test probes and equipment were qualified for the expected types of tube degradation and an assessment of the site-specific qualification of one or more techniques. The inspectors observed
portions of the eddy current tests. During these examinations, the inspectors verified that:
- (1) the probes appropriate for identifying the expected types of indications were being used,
- (2) probe position location verification was performed,
- (3) calibration requirements were adhered, and
- (4) probe travel speed was in accordance with procedural requirements. The inspectors performed a review of site-specific qualifications of the techniques being used.
These actions constitute completion of the requirements of Section 02.04.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.5 Identification and Resolution of Problems (71111.08-02.05)
a. Inspection scope
The inspectors reviewed 27 condition reports which dealt with inservice inspection activities and found the corrective actions were appropriate. The specific condition reports reviewed are listed in the documents reviewed section. From this review the inspectors concluded that the licensee has an appropriate threshold for entering issues into the corrective action program and has procedures that direct a root cause evaluation when necessary. The licensee also has an effective program for applying industry operating experience. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These actions constitute completion of the requirements of Section 02.05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification Program
.1 Biennial Inspection
a. Inspection Scope
To assess the performance effectiveness of the licensed operator requalification program, the inspectors conducted personnel interviews, reviewed both the operating tests and written examinations, reviewed randomly selected medical and watchstanding proficiency records, and observed ongoing operating test activities.
The on-site inspection effort occurred from July 13 through 17, 2009. During this time, the inspectors interviewed licensee personnel to determine their understanding of the policies and practices for administering requalification examinations. The inspectors also reviewed operator performance on the periodic written exams and annual operating tests. These reviews included observations of portions of the operating tests by the
inspectors. The operating tests observed included six job performance measures and two scenarios that were used in the current biennial requalification cycle. These observations allowed the inspectors to assess the licensee's effectiveness in conducting the operating test to ensure operator mastery of the training program content.
The results of these examinations were reviewed to determine the effectiveness of the licensees appraisal of operator performance and to determine if feedback of performance analyses into the requalification training program was being accomplished.
The inspectors interviewed members of the training department and reviewed minutes of the Training Oversight Committee to assess the responsiveness of the licensed operator requalification program to incorporate the lessons learned from both plant and industry events. The inspector also reviewed a sample of licensed operator annual medical forms and procedures governing the medical examination process for conformance to 10 CFR 55.53, a sampling of the licensed requalification program feedback system, and the remediation process records.
In addition to the above, the inspectors reviewed examination security measures, simulator fidelity, and existing logs of simulator deficiencies.
The inspectors performed an in-office review of the overall pass/fail results of the individual job performance measure operating tests, simulator operating tests, and written examinations administered by the licensee during the operator licensing requalification cycles and biennial examination. Final examination results were assessed to determine if they were consistent with the guidance contained in NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors", Revision 9, Supplement 1, and NRC Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix I, "Operator Requalification Human Performance Significance Determination Process." Nine separate crews participated in simulator operating tests, written examinations, and job performance measure operating tests, totaling 36 licensed operators. There were no failures on the written examination, simulator operating tests, or job performance measure operating tests.
The inspectors completed one inspection sample of the biennial licensed operator requalification program.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Quarterly Inspection
a. Inspection Scope
On November 24, 2009, the inspectors observed a crew of licensed operators in the plants simulator to verify that operator performance was adequate, evaluators were identifying and documenting crew performance problems, and training was being
conducted in accordance with licensee procedures. The inspectors evaluated the following areas:
- Licensed operator performance
- Crews clarity and formality of communications
- Crews ability to take timely actions in the conservative direction
- Crews prioritization, interpretation, and verification of annunciator alarms
- Control board manipulations
- Oversight and direction from supervisors The inspectors compared the crews performance in these areas to pre-established operator action expectations. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of one quarterly licensed-operator requalification program sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.11.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors evaluated degraded performance issues involving the following risk significant systems:
- November 20, 2009, Effects of voiding on the functionality of low pressure safety injection system
- December 8, 2009, Effects of excessive leakage on functionality of containment isolation valves The inspectors reviewed events such as where ineffective equipment maintenance has resulted in valid or invalid automatic actuations of engineered safeguards systems and independently verified the licensee's actions to address system performance or condition problems in terms of the following:
- Implementing appropriate work practices
- Identifying and addressing common cause failures
- Scoping of systems in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(b)
- Characterizing system reliability issues for performance
- Charging unavailability for performance
- Trending key parameters for condition monitoring
- Ensuring proper classification in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) or (a)(2)
- Verifying appropriate performance criteria for structures, systems, and components classified as having an adequate demonstration of performance through preventive maintenance, as described in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), or as requiring the establishment of appropriate and adequate goals and corrective actions for systems classified as not having adequate performance, as described in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1)
The inspectors assessed performance issues with respect to the reliability, availability, and condition monitoring of the system. In addition, the inspectors verified maintenance effectiveness issues were entered into the corrective action program with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of two quarterly maintenance effectiveness samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed licensee personnel's evaluation and management of plant risk for the maintenance and emergent work activities affecting risk-significant and safety-related equipment listed below to verify that the appropriate risk assessments were performed prior to removing equipment for work:
- October 24, 2009, Scheduled plant refuel outage with reactor coolant system water level reduced to approximately 19 feet to support reactor vessel head removal during mode 6 operations
- November 30, 2009, Scheduled activity to take the reactor coolant system solid and draw a bubble in the pressurizer following the refueling outage
- December 13, 2009, Scheduled plant protection system channel B functional test The inspectors selected these activities based on potential risk significance relative to the reactor safety cornerstones. As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified that licensee personnel performed risk assessments as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4)
and that the assessments were accurate and complete. When licensee personnel performed emergent work, the inspectors verified that the licensee personnel promptly assessed and managed plant risk. The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance work, discussed the results of the assessment with the licensee's probabilistic risk analyst or shift technical advisor, and verified plant conditions were consistent with the risk assessment. The inspectors also reviewed the technical specification requirements and inspected portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk analysis assumptions were valid and applicable requirements were met. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of three maintenance risk assessments and emergent work control inspection samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.13-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R15 Operability Evaluations
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the following issues:
- October 29, 2009, Log power nuclear instrument channel B
- November 16, 2009, Station battery train B total allowable resistance
- November 19, 2009, Broken in-core nuclear instrumentation E-13 The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk-significance of the associated components and systems. The inspectors evaluated the technical adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that technical specification operability was properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the technical specifications and Updated Safety Analysis Report to the licensees evaluations, to determine whether the components or systems were operable. Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled. The inspectors determined, where appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations.
Additionally, the inspectors also reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to verify that the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with operability evaluations. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

- Adequacy of the licensees internal dose assessment for any actual internal exposure greater than 50 millirem committed effective dose equivalent Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of 21 of the required 21 samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71121.01-05.
b. Findings
Introduction.
The inspectors reviewed a Green self-revealing, noncited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1 which resulted from a worker failing to follow radiation protection procedures.
Description.
On November 17, 2009, a contract radiation worker went to work near steam generator 1 and received multiple electronic dosimeter dose rate alarms, but did not leave the area until receiving a continuous dose alarm. In response, the licensee investigated and found the worker indicated to radiation protection access control personnel he would be going to the D-ring to work. The radiation protection technician providing the radiological briefing showed the worker a map of reactor coolant pump 1A and asked if that was where individual would be working. The worker acknowledged it was, and the radiation protection technician used the survey map associated with Radiation Work Permit 618, Task 1, Remove/Replace Insulation in the Reactor
Containment Building, to brief the worker on the radiological conditions. The worker then signed onto Radiation Work Permit 618, Task 1, which provided a dose alarm setpoint of 50 millirem and dose rate setpoint of 350 millirem per hour, and went to work near steam generator 1, where dose rates were higher than the area for which the worker was briefed. The licensee determined the worker entered a maximum dose rate of 763 millirem per hour and received a dose of 50.8 millirem. Radiation protection representatives stated the appropriate radiation work permit for the work area was Radiation Work Permit 618, Task 2. Through examination of the electronic dosimeter histogram, the licensee verified the worker received multiple dose rate alarms. The worker mistakenly thought the dose rate alarms were generated by the workers powered air purifying respirator signaling low air flow. Additional corrective actions were being considered at the time of the inspection.
Analysis.
The failure to follow radiation protection procedural requirements for entry into the radiological controlled area was a performance deficiency. This finding is greater than minor because it involved the program attribute of exposure control and affected the cornerstone objective in that the failure of the worker to follow procedural guidance resulted in the worker being unknowledgeable of the dose rates in all areas entered.
The inspectors used the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process and determined the finding had very low safety significance because it was not:
- (1) an as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) finding,
- (2) an overexposure,
- (3) a substantial potential for overexposure, or
- (4) an inability to assess dose. The finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance, work practices component, because the worker failed to use human error prevention techniques such as self and peer checking H.4.a].
Enforcement.
Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Appendix A lists procedures for access control to radiation areas. Procedure EN-RP-100, Radworker Expectations, Revision 3, Section 5.3[9], requires the radiation work permit to be read, understood, and obeyed as a condition of radiologically controlled area access.
Section 5.4[3](h) requires the worker know where to properly perform his/her task.
Section 5.3[17] requires the worker be briefed and sign on the appropriate radiation work permit. Section 5.3[11] requires the worker know the radiological conditions in the work area. The contract worker violated these requirements when the worker did not know where to perform his/her task, did not sign the appropriate radiation work permit and task, and did not know the radiological conditions in the work area as evidenced by the multiple electronic dosimeter dose rate alarms. Because this failure to follow radiation protection procedural guidance when entering the radiological controlled area was of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensees corrective action program in Condition Reports WF3-2009-05648 and WF3-2009-06852, this violation is being treated as an noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000382/2009005-01; Failure to Follow Radiation Protection Procedural Requirements.

Introduction.
A self-revealing Green noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, was identified for the licensees failure to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, the licensee did not promptly correct reactor coolant pump vapor seal leakage that resulted in boric acid accumulation on the component cooling water heat exchanger and cover areas of three reactor coolant pumps. Corrective actions for this condition were implemented during Refueling Outage 15, but these corrective actions failed to correct the condition and the vapor seal leakage continued through Operating Cycle 16. This resulted in some additional boric acid corrosion and degradation to reactor coolant pump covers and carbon steel component cooling water flanges.
Description.
The reactor coolant pumps are designed to direct vapor stage seal leakage to the reactor drain tank via installed piping which includes a check valve to prevent back flow from the drain line to the vapor seal. For several cycles, the licensee has recognized that vapor stage seal leakage has not been draining to the reactor drain tank as designed but has instead been backing up in the line and spilling into the pump shroud region. It was theorized that this failure of the vapor stage leakage to flow to the reactor drain tank was due to the normally positive pressure in the reactor drain tank and that a design change was needed. During Refueling Outage 15, the licensee implemented Engineering Change EC-6256 to redirect all reactor coolant pump vapor seal leakage flow to a floor drain instead of the reactor drain tank. However, the design change did not consider the flow restriction effects of an existing check valve in each of the reactor coolant pump vapor stage leakage piping, and made the modification downstream of each of those existing check valves such that vapor stage leakage no longer faced the back pressure from the reactor drain tank, but still had to pass through the existing check valves in order to reach the target floor drain.
The postmaintenance test prescribed by Engineering Change EC-6256 to verify flow through the modified vapor stage leakage piping from the seal, through the leak-off piping (including the installed check valve) to the floor drain was not implemented as specified. Instead, because of schedule and resource impacts (it would have been difficult, resource intensive, and intrusive to conduct the test as prescribed), a substitute postmaintenance test was performed that only verified flow through the portion of the piping that was modified. This meant that the postmaintenance test did not verify that water would actually flow from the vapor stage seal, through the existing check valves, through the new piping modification and into the floor drain.
Operating Cycle 16 proceeded following Refueling Outage 15 with the newly modified and inadequately tested vapor stage leakage line in operation. At the conclusion of Operating Cycle 16, Mode 3 walkdowns at the beginning of Refueling Outage 16 identified more boric acid accumulation on three of four reactor coolant pumps, indicating continued reactor coolant pump vapor stage leakage out onto the heat exchanger and pump cover. The licensees root cause analysis determined that Engineering Change EC-6256 was ineffective. A test similar to the postmaintenance test originally prescribed by Engineering Change EC-6256 was performed on reactor coolant pump 2B (which had experienced the most boric acid accumulation) and it identified that the installed check valve RC-511B was incapable of passing flow as intended by design. The valve was a 3/4 Velan spring loaded check valve in which the pressure required to overcome the spring load was more than the static head of water between the vapor stage seal and the check valve could develop. Both the original design and the subsequent design modification implemented by Engineering Change EC-6256 were incapable of passing flow as intended by design because the vapor stage leakage line between the seal and the check valve could not develop enough static head to lift the check valve before backing up and spilling over onto the pump heat exchanger and cover. If the postmaintenance test prescribed by Engineering Change EC-6256 had been implemented as prescribed during Refueling Outage 15, this design flaw associated with the check valve would have been
detected and the design could have been modified to correct this condition at that time. However, because that postmaintenance test was not properly implemented, the condition adverse to quality (the vapor stage leakage onto the reactor coolant pump heat exchanger and pump cover and associated boric acid accumulation and associated corrosion) continued to exist for another operating cycle.
Analysis.
The licensees failure to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality is a performance deficiency. The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability. Using the Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1 screening worksheet, the issue screened as having very low safety significance because, although the finding contributes to the likelihood of a reactor trip, mitigation equipment is still available. This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with work control in that the licensee did not effectively plan for the resources necessary to implement the postmaintenance testing per Engineering Change EC 6256 H.3(a).
Enforcement.
Title10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality are promptly identified and corrected. Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, the licensee failed to correct the reactor coolant pump vapor seal leakage with the corrective actions it implemented during Refueling Outage 15 (ending May 31, 2008), and the vapor seal leakage continued through operating cycle 16 until corrected during Refueling Outage 16 (ending December 4, 2009). Because this finding was of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-5501, it is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy:
NCV 05000382/2009005-02, Reactor Coolant Pump Vapor Seal Leakage.

Introduction:
A self-revealing Green noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, was identified for the licensees failure to prescribe an activity affecting quality by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings appropriate to the circumstance. Specifically, for all reactor coolant pump heat exchanger to pump cover bolted connection gasket replacements between the refueling outage of 1986 (Refueling Outage 1) and the refueling outage of 2009 (Refueling Outage 16), the licensee prescribed the wrong gasket material, gasket size, and fastener preload because they had failed to incorporate a design change implemented during Refueling Outage 1 into their instructions, procedures, or drawings. Station Modification Package SMP-1427, an engineering change implemented during Refueling Outage 1 in response to industry operating experience, called for a thicker gasket, different gasket material, and an increased bolt preload in order to increase gasket compression and reduce the probability of leakage. As a consequence of failing to incorporate Station Modification Package SMP-1427 changes into procedures, all heat exchanger gasket
replacements since Refueling Outage 1, four gasket replacements in total, have utilized thinner gaskets with less than the vendor recommended compression.
Description.
After the licensees first operating cycle, industry operating experience indicated that the reactor coolant pump heat exchanger to pump cover bolted connection had a high probability of leakage as designed and warranted a design modification to increase gasket compression to reduce the likelihood of reactor coolant leakage at that interface. As a result, the licensee implemented a design modification, Station Modification Package SMP-1427, to change the required gasket material from stainless steel/asbestos to inconel/grafoil, to change the gasket thickness from 0.125 inches to 0.135 inches, and to change the fastening method from 2200-foot pounds of torque (roughly equivalent to 30 ksi tensioned) to 38.7 ksi tensioned.
All four reactor coolant pump bolted connections were modified to the new gaskets and fastening method as prescribed in Station Modification Package SMP-1427.
However, Technical document TD-B580.0025 was not updated with the design change at that time. As a result, all gasket replacements conducted between Refueling Outage 1 and Refueling Outage 16 were accomplished in accordance with the outdated and inadequate specifications that remained in TD-B580.0025. The result was that, by the beginning of Refueling Outage 16, only reactor coolant pump RCP-1B still retained the modifications prescribed by Station Modification Package SMP-1427 and implemented in Refueling Outage 1.
It is noteworthy that the inspection of reactor coolant pump 1A during the midcycle outage on October 9, 2007, identified a sizable quantity of boric acid crystals contained in the pump shroud. The root cause analysis concluded that the boric acid accumulation was primarily due to leakage past the reactor coolant pump heat exchanger to pump cover gasket. However, the root cause analysis for this leakage did not identify that operating experience associated with leakage past these gaskets had caused the licensee to implement Station Modification Package SMP-1427 in Refueling Outage 1, and neither did the root cause analysis identify that the thicker gasket and modified fastening method were needed to achieve the vendors recommended compression. Therefore, the gasket replacement on reactor coolant pump RCP-1A was not performed in accordance with Station Modification Package SMP-1427. In addition, it is noteworthy that boric acid accumulation discovered on reactor coolant pump RCP-2B on October 20, 2009, prompted another root cause analysis by the licensee which concluded that leakage past the heat exchanger to pump cover gasket may have been a possible cause of a portion of that boric acid accumulation. The root cause analysis performed in 2007 for reactor coolant pump RCP-1A was a missed opportunity to identify the licensees past failure to include the Station Modification Package SMP-1427 design modifications into plant procedures. Had that opportunity not been missed, it is postulated that the inadequate gasket and fastener configuration on reactor coolant pump RCP-2B may have been identified and corrected before the discovery of significant boric acid accumulation on it during Operating Cycle 16, which may have reduced the accumulation of boric acid on that pump.
Analysis.
The licensees failure to prescribe appropriate gasket replacement requirements in instructions, procedures, or drawings is a performance deficiency.
The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability.
Using the Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1 screening worksheet, the issue screened as having very low safety significance because, although the finding contributes to the likelihood of a reactor trip, mitigation equipment is still available.
This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with operating experience in that the licensee did not institutionalize operating experience through changes to the station procedures
Enforcement.
Title10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, requires that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to prescribe an activity affecting quality by instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances. Specifically, for all reactor coolant pump heat exchanger to pump cover bolted connection gasket replacements between the refueling outage of 1986 (Refueling Outage 1) and the refueling outage of 2009 (Refueling Outage 16), the licensee prescribed the wrong gasket material, gasket size, and fastener preload because they had failed to incorporate a design change implemented during Refueling Outage 1 into their instructions, procedures, or drawings. Because this finding was of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-5501, it is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000382/2009005-03, Failure to Update Drawings after Design Change.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations
The following violations of very low safety significance (Green) were identified by the licensee and are violations of NRC requirements which meet the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as noncited violations.
Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Appendix A lists procedures for access control to radiation areas. Procedure EN-RP-100, Radworker Expectations, Revision 3, Section 5.3[9]
requires the radiation work permit to be read, understood, and obeyed as a condition of radiologically controlled area access. Procedure EN-RP-100, Radworker Expectations, Revision 3, Section 5.4[3](h) requires the worker know where to properly perform his/her task.
Section 5.3[17] requires the worker be briefed and sign on the appropriate radiation work permit.
Section 5.3[11] requires the worker know the radiological conditions in the work area. The licensee identified an example of a worker entering a high radiation area using an inappropriate radiation work permit and without knowing the dose rates in the area. On October 24, 2009, a security officer entered shutdown heat exchanger Room B and received an electronic dosimeter dose rate alarm. The room was posted as a high radiation area and dose rates within the area were as high as 140 millirem per hour. The officer entered the radiological controlled area using Radiation Work Permit 2009005, Tours and Inspection in All Radiological Controlled Areas, Except High Radiation Areas, Locked High Radiation Areas, Very High Radiation Areas, and the Reactor Containment Building. Because the radiation work permit did not allow entry into high radiation areas, radiation protection personnel did not anticipate the officer would enter the room and did not brief the officer on the dose rates in the area. In response, the licensee conducted a human performance error review and counseled the officer. This finding was of very low safety significance because it did not involve an actual or substantial potential of an overexposure.
This finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-WF3-2009-05648.
