SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting an integrated inspection at Waterford Steam Electrical Station,

Unit 3, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors.

Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. A licensee-identified non-cited violation is documented in report section: 71114.0

List of Findings and Violations

Failure to Maintain Effectiveness of the Emergency Plan upon Loss of Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Emergency Green [P.3] - 71114.04 Preparedness NCV 05000382/2021003-01 Resolution Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) which requires that operating nuclear power plant licensees follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements in Appendix E of 10 CFR 50, and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b), including 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) relative to maintaining an emergency classification/action level scheme. Specifically, from May 26 to May 30, 2021, and again May 31 to June 4, 2021, Waterford's response to the loss of Level 8 indications on both channels of the Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System (RVLMS) failed to restore capability to classify emergency action levels (EALs) for a range of accidents which would rely on monitoring reactor vessel water level with RVLMS consistent with the approved EAL scheme.

In response to this issue, the licensee established compensatory measures to be able to declare the potential loss of the fuel cladding and/or containment fission product barriers, such that up to a General Emergency could be declared for the given conditions. While the compensatory measures employed during the period provided some mitigation as to the significance of the performance deficiency, they did not restore compliance with the approved EAL scheme until one channel of the RVLMS Level 8 was restored.

Failure to Provide Complete and Accurate Information in a License Amendment Request to Change Emergency Action Level Requirements Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV Not Applicable 71114.04 NCV 05000382/2021003-02 Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.9, in that the licensee provided inaccurate information to the NRC in a license amendment request for an emergency action level scheme change in 2011. Specifically, the licensee provided information about the detector capability of two liquid effluent radiation monitors, that was material to the licensing decision, but was determined to be not accurate.

PLANT STATUS

Waterford, Unit 3, began the inspection period at full power and remained at full power until August 29, 2021, when the licensee shutdown the plant and placed in Mode 5 due to expected hurricane force winds onsite from Hurricane Ida. The unit lost all sources of offsite power on August 29, 2021 and regained a source on August 31, 2021. After evaluation, the licensee restarted the unit on September 7, 2021 and returned to full power on September 14, 2021. The unit stayed at full power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), resident and regional inspectors were directed to begin telework and to remotely access licensee information using available technology. During this time, the resident inspectors performed periodic site visits each week, increasing the amount of time on-site as local COVID-19 conditions permitted.

As part of their on-site activities, resident inspectors conducted plant status activities as described in IMC 2515, Appendix D, Plant Status, and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution, observed risk significant activities; and completed on-site portions of IPs. In addition, resident and regional baseline inspections were evaluated to determine if all or a portion of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. If the inspections could be performed remotely, they were conducted per the applicable IP. In some cases, portions of an IP were completed remotely and on-site. The inspections documented below met the objectives and requirements for completion of the IP.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Failure to Maintain Effectiveness of the Emergency Plan upon Loss of Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Emergency Green [P.3] - 71114.04 Preparedness NCV 05000382/2021003-01 Resolution Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) which requires that operating nuclear power plant licensees follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements in Appendix E of 10 CFR 50, and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b), including 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) relative to maintaining an emergency classification/action level scheme. Specifically, from May 26 to May 30, 2021, and again May 31 to June 4, 2021, Waterford's response to the loss of Level 8 indications on both channels of the Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System (RVLMS) failed to restore capability to classify emergency action levels (EALs) for a range of accidents which would rely on monitoring reactor vessel water level with RVLMS consistent with the approved EAL scheme.

In response to this issue, the licensee established compensatory measures to be able to declare the potential loss of the fuel cladding and/or containment fission product barriers, such that up to a General Emergency could be declared for the given conditions. While the compensatory measures employed during the period provided some mitigation as to the significance of the performance deficiency, they did not restore compliance with the approved EAL scheme until one channel of the RVLMS Level 8 was restored.

Description:

The Waterford Unit 3 emergency action level (EAL) scheme associated with the Emergency Plan was based on the standard scheme in NEI 99-01, "Methodology for Development of Emergency Action Levels," Revision 5, and was approved by the NRC for use on July 18, 2011 (ADAMS Accession No. ML111380558). The approved Waterford EAL scheme includes the use of the Fission Product Barrier matrix which evaluates the loss or potential loss of the fuel clad, reactor coolant system (RCS), and/or containment barriers by way of various system parameters and thresholds, when the reactor is in Operating Modes 1 - 4 (Power Operations to Hot Shutdown). The severity of the emergency using the Fission Product Barrier matrix information increases (up to a General Emergency) based on which barrier is lost or potentially lost, and if in combination with the loss or potential loss of one or both of the other barriers. One measure of a Potential Loss of the Fuel Clad fission product barrier (FCB4) at Waterford used the criteria of "RVLMS upper level plenum 0 percent" - which equates to the lowest level measured by the RVLMS (Level 8)corresponding to the closest monitored level to the top of active fuel. (This level is 12.6 inches above the fuel alignment plate, which is further located an additional 12 inches above the top of the fuel bundles in the reactor core). Additionally, one measure of a Potential Loss of the Containment fission product barrier (CNB3) also used the RVLMS Level 8 input in the combined criteria of "(1) Core exit thermocouples (CETs) [greater than] 700 degrees F; AND

(2) RVLMS upper level plenum 0 percent or lower; AND
(3) Restoration procedures not effective within 15 minutes." The most likely accident scenario in which the RVLMS criteria could be employed would be during a loss of coolant accident in which the RCS barrier would be lost as part of the event; thus, the potential loss of the fuel clad and/or containment using the RVLMS criteria as reactor vessel water level continued to decrease could result in a Site Area Emergency (loss/potential loss of two barriers) and eventually a General Emergency (loss/potential loss of all three barriers). Additionally, in Cold Shutdown (Mode 5) or Refueling (Mode 6), the RVLMS provided input for a Site Area Emergency EAL (CS1) with the following criteria: "[w]ith containment closure not established RVLMS upper plenum level 0 percent [Level 8]." At Waterford, RVLMS employs two channels of instruments of which each provide relative reactor vessel water levels (8 distinct levels per channel) to the Qualified Safety Parameter Display System (QSPDS) with indications available in the control room.

In approximately March 2019, RVLMS Channel 2, Levels 4 and 8 were found inoperable during a refueling outage, but at the time the licensee took no actions to restore those instruments to an operable status before the conclusion of the refueling outage. Because of the location of the RLVMS level instruments, repairs to the individual instrument inputs could not be made while the reactor was operating. At that point, this condition reduced the station's ability to declare FCB4, CNB3, or CS1 using the RVLMS instrumentation to only RVLMS Channel 1 [Level 8]. As revealed during the inspection, no further corrective actions were pursued by the licensee to restore RVLMS Channel 2, Level 8 to operable status during a subsequent refueling outage in the Fall 2020.

On May 26, 2021, the entire QSPDS Channel 1 (including the level inputs from RVLMS Channel 1) became inoperable. While operators noted that RVLMS Channel 1 was not available and they initiated procedural actions to use alternate instruments for general reactor vessel water level monitoring (including monitoring CETs available in QSPDS Channel 2 and RCS Hot Leg thermocouple temperatures), the operators did not fully recognize that the loss of QSPDS/RVLMS Channel 1, in conjunction with the previous loss of RVLMS Channel 2, Level 8, resulted in their inability to declare FCB4, CNB3, or CS1. In part, after engagement by the NRC Resident Inspectors on this point, while they pursued repair strategies for QSPDS/RVLMS Channel 1, the licensee implemented a standing order on May 28, to use RVLMS Channel 2, Level 7 in conjunction with other RCS Hot Leg temperature indications (and CET temperatures, as appropriate) as an alternate method to declare a Potential Loss of the Fuel Clad and/or Containment barriers, and for the CS1 Site Area Emergency (if in Modes 5 or 6). On the morning of May 30, 2021, the licensee restored QSPDS/RVLMS Channel 1 to an operable status, and suspended use of the standing order. However, less than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> later (on the morning of May 31), QSPDS/RVLMS Channel 1 failed again.

After additional engagement by the Resident Inspectors regarding technical aspects of the original standing order, the licensee implemented a revision to the standing order that same day (May 31), as further repairs to QSPDS/RVLMS Channel 1 continued. Subsequently on June 4, 2021, the licensee restored QSPDS Channel 1 to an operable status, and thus RVLMS Channel 1, Level 8 indications became available again to support potential declaration of FCB4, CNB3, or CS1.

On June 24, 2021, based on additional questions relative to the licensee's ability to declare FCB4, CNB3, or CS1, and continuing licensee analyses and corrective actions given that the station continued to only have one channel of RVLMS available, the licensee completed an evaluation for changes to one of the emergency plan supporting procedures (EN-EP-202, Equipment Important to Emergency Response) to formally integrate compensatory measures (based in part on the standing orders) into the procedure should both channels of RVLMS Level 8 become inoperable again. The licensee's analysis included evaluating the use of available alternate level (e.g., RVLMS Level 7) and temperature indications in the Waterford reactor simulator for the most limiting accident scenario - a small break loss of coolant accident. The analysis provided information which showed that using the standing order or compensatory measure alternate methods to declare FCB4, CNB3, or CS1, could result in indications to support declaration of a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency no more than 15 minutes after of the "expected" time of available indications had the RVLMS Level 8 indications been available. Additionally, for some of the scenarios, when alternate instruments were used, the indications could result in available information to declare up to a General Emergency no more than 15 minutes earlier than the "expected" time had RVLMS Level 8 indications been available.

The Region-based Emergency Preparedness (EP) inspectors supported the resident inspectors in the evaluation of the licensee's standing orders/compensatory measures and 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation for the changes to assess the impact on the effectiveness of the licensee's emergency plan when both channels of RVLMS Level 8 indications were lost during the two, multi-day periods. The EP inspectors concluded that with the loss of both channels of RVLMS Level 8 for the period of May 26 - June 4, 2021, the associated initiating conditions/fission product barrier matrix criteria, which support up to a General Emergency classification, were ineffective. Specifically, during the period, the EAL scheme (using the approved RVLMS Level 8 indications) would not have been effective in implementing the approved Emergency Plan. However, the EP inspectors determined, in consultation with staff from the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, that during the period when alternate methods/indications would have been used and resulted in later or earlier than "expected" indications of the conditions, those alternate methods would have still provided timely indications to support declaration of up to a General Emergency, and would have resulted in the licensee providing the same required Protective Action Recommendations to the offsite response authorities.

Corrective Actions: In addition to establishing the standing orders and change to the emergency plan implementing procedure relative to the permanent compensatory measure (both previously described), the licensee initiated several additional corrective actions for this issue, including

(1) conducting a cause evaluation to determine why RVLMS Channel 2, Level 8 was not scoped into the Fall 2020 refueling outage for repair, and
(2) validating that the appropriate equipment and planning were on-hand and complete to support repair of RVLMS Channel 2, Levels 8 (and 4) during the Spring 2022 refueling outage.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The licensee failed to maintain the effectiveness of its emergency plan that meets the risk significant planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) relative to maintaining an emergency classification/action level scheme. Specifically, upon loss of Level 8 indications on both channels of the Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System (RVLMS), the licensee failed to ensure the capability to classify emergency action levels for a range of accidents which would rely on monitoring reactor vessel water level with RVLMS consistent with the approved EAL scheme.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Facilities and Equipment attribute of the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure that the licensee is capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Specifically, the failure to maintain equipment and processes to ensure the effectiveness of the EAL scheme and emergency plan adversely affected the ERO capability to implement adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness SDP. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not result in the loss or degradation of a risk significant planning standard. Specifically, while the loss of both channels of RVLMS Level 8 resulted in EALs rendered ineffective such that up to a General Emergency would not be declared for a particular off-normal event, because of other EALs, an appropriate declaration could be made in an accurate and timely manner. Further, the EAL classification process, using other EALs and/or compensatory measures employed by the licensee for a particular off-normal event, would not result in an over-classification that would lead the offsite response organizations to implement unnecessary protective actions for the public.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: P.3 - Resolution: The organization takes effective corrective actions to address issues in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance.

Specifically, in failing to ensure timely corrective action to repair RVLMS Channel 2, Level 8 to an operable status after it failed in March 2019, the licensee created a single point vulnerability such that operators only had one channel of RVLMS Level 8 available for over a two-year period to support appropriate declaration of up to a General Emergency had the need arisen. There was an opportunity to affect corrective actions and restore RVLMS Channel 2 during the Fall 2020 refueling outage, but that work was not planned nor completed. Further, the licensee failed to develop any additional, predefined compensatory measures to support timely and accurate classification of the associated emergencies should neither channel of RVLMS Level 8 be operable.

Enforcement:

Violation: Title 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) requires that a holder of a nuclear power plant operating license follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements in Appendix E of this part and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b).

Further, 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) requires that a standard emergency classification and action level scheme, the bases of which include facility system and effluent parameters, is in use by the nuclear facility licensee. Contrary to the above, from May 26 to May 30, 2021, and again from May 31 to June 4, 2021, upon loss of both channels of the Reactor Vessel Level Monitoring System (RVLMS) Level 8 indications, Waterford failed to ensure that the standard emergency classification and action level scheme, as approved by the NRC for the use by the licensee, was in use and maintained the effectiveness of the emergency plan.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Failure to Provide Complete and Accurate Information in a License Amendment Request to Change Emergency Action Level Requirements Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Not Severity Level IV Not 71114.04 Applicable NCV 05000382/2021003-02 Applicable Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.9, in that the licensee provided inaccurate information to the NRC in a license amendment request for an emergency action level scheme change in 2011. Specifically, the licensee provided information about the detector capability of two liquid effluent radiation monitors, that was material to the licensing decision, but was determined to be not accurate.

Description:

The NRC approved an emergency action level scheme change on July 18, 2011 (ADAMS Accession No. ML111380558), to allow Waterford 3 (the licensee) to adopt the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 99-01, Revision 5, emergency action level (EAL)scheme. Subsequently, the licensee identified that EAL thresholds for the Alert and Unusual Event Abnormal Radiation EALs AU1 and AA1 could not be implemented in accordance with their emergency classification procedure for six liquid effluent radiation monitors and one gaseous radiation effluent monitor. Specifically, based on the results of an internal self-assessment, the licensee documented in Condition Report (CR) CR-WF3-2019-07175, that it appeared that EAL thresholds for several effluent radiation monitors were above the maximum range of the individual monitors. Specifically, CR-WF3-2019-07175 noted that other CRs written in 2010 and 2013 appeared to acknowledge that the monitors' capabilities relative to the EAL thresholds may have been in question, and while an engineering analysis was completed in those prior years, the contemporary licensee staff could not validate the assumptions to support conclusions in the prior analysis..

In the subsequently completed vendor-supported, Engineering Calculation (WF3-EC-88621)and CR-WR3-2020-06312, the licensee validated that seven effluent monitors had maximum detection capabilities which would be incapable of indicating the applicable EAL threshold value (i.e., typically, 200 times the established alarm setpoint for the release path and permit consistent with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual limits), and recommended changes to the EAL thresholds to support the detectors' capabilities.

The inspectors reviewed the licensees license amendment request (LAR), dated September 16, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML102630124), Proposed Emergency Action Levels Using NEI 99-01, Revision 5, Scheme, Waterford Steam Electric Station Unit 3, Docket No. 50-382, License No. NPF-38, and the licensees supplemental responses relative to NRC's requests for additional information related to the LAR dated March 28, 2011 (ADAMS Accession No. ML110900290), and May 4, 2011 (ADAMS Accession No. ML111250102), to determine whether the conditions identified in the corrective action program existed at the time the licensee requested the license amendment and whether the request correctly described the instruments and their capabilities. The inspectors identified that the licensee's initial LAR and first supplemental response (dated September 16, 2010, and March 28, 2011, respectively) did not include specific setpoint values for any of the seven effluent radiation monitors which were subsequently determined to have maximum detection ranges which did not support their EAL thresholds. However, the inspectors found that the second supplemental response (dated May 4, 2011), the description for the proposed Waterford 3 Abnormal Radiation Alert EAL AA1, Item 2.a included the criteria: "For Table A2 monitors: EITHER a VALID reading [greater than] 200 times the alarm setpoint established by a current radioactivity discharge permit for > 15 minutes OR a VALID reading [greater than]

the Table A2 value for [greater than] 15 minutes."

Further in the May 4, 2011, response, the licensee included Table A2 with the following liquid effluent radiation monitors and associated thresholds:

  • Boron Management Discharge (PRM-IRE-0627) - Concentration: 5.38E-01 microcurie/mL
  • Liquid Waste Management Discharge (PRM-IRE-0647) - Concentration: 5.38E-01 microcurie/mL In reviewing the contemporary reevaluated setpoint calculation (WF-EC-88621) and the corrected EAL Classification procedure (EP-001-001, Revision 34) which uses the appropriate maximum detector range, the inspectors found that Table A2 correctly included the following for the same two effluent monitors:
  • Boron Management Discharge (PRM-IRE-0627) - Concentration: 8.55E-02 microcurie/mL
  • Liquid Waste Management Discharge (PRM-IRE-0647) - Concentration: 8.55E-02 microcurie/mL Both of these setpoint values were significantly less than the concentration values provided by the licensee in its May 4, 2011, supplemental response for the LAR, and demonstrated that the thresholds previously provided would have been incapable of detection by the instruments.

This issue was NRC-identified because when the licensee identified the potential emergency action level errors earlier in 2010, they missed the opportunity to identify and ensure that technical information provided to the NRC in support of the license amendment request (initiated in September 2010 and supplemented with additional information in May 2011) was complete and accurate in all material respects.

Corrective Actions: Consistent with the change process described in 10 CFR 50.54(q), the licensee changed the emergency plan implementing procedure, EP-001-001, Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions, Revision 34, effective March 11, 2021, to correct the EAL thresholds consistent with the seven effluent radiation detectors' capabilities.

[Additional details on these corrective actions are included in the associated licensee-identified, Green NCV, documented elsewhere in this report]. Additionally, the licensee issued Condition Report CR-WF3-2021-04614 for the incomplete and inaccurate emergency action level submission examples to address the completeness and accuracy issues identified by the inspectors.

Corrective Action References: Condition Reports CR-WF3-2019-07175, CR-WF3-2020-06312, and CR-WF3-2021-04614

Performance Assessment:

The NRC determined that this violation was associated with a previously documented finding assessed using the significance determination process.

Specifically, the inspectors' review of a licensee-identified Green, non-cited violation, for the licensee's failure to maintain the emergency plan consistent with the planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4), which requires that an effective emergency classification/action level scheme be maintained, is documented elsewhere in this report.

Enforcement:

The ROPs significance determination process does not specifically consider the regulatory process impact in its assessment of licensee performance. Therefore, it is necessary to address this violation which impedes the NRCs ability to regulate using traditional enforcement to adequately deter non-compliance. This issue was determined to be a Severity Level IV violation using the NRC Enforcement Policy, dated January 20, 2020, Section 2.3.11, Inaccurate and Incomplete Information, and Section 6.9, Inaccurate and Incomplete Information or Failure to Make a Required Report.

Severity: This issue was determined to be more than minor because by providing inaccurate information in support of a license amendment request, the licensee impeded the regulatory process of reviewing and approving the license amendment request. The Enforcement Policy, Section 6.9(c)(1), provides that a violation is characterized as Severity Level III if the accurate information would have caused the NRC to reconsider a regulatory position or undertake further inquiry. There are no corresponding Severity Level IV examples. Through discussion with the Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response (NSIR), it was determined that had accurate information been provided (or had the NRC known the information was inaccurate), the NRC license reviewer would have used the request for additional information process to address these problems with the license amendment request. Specifically, the licensee would have been required to revise their proposed emergency action levels so they could be implemented before the emergency action scheme change was approved. Because the request for additional information is a routine NRC process, the inspectors concluded that the failure to provide accurate information to the NRC would not have caused the NRC to undertake substantial further inquiry (a threshold for Severity Level III), and therefore the violation was appropriately characterized as Severity Level IV.

Violation: Section 50.9(a) of 10 CFR states, in part, that information provided to the Commission by a licensee shall be complete and accurate in all material respects.

Contrary to the above, on May 4, 2011, information was provided to the Commission by the licensee that was not complete and accurate in all material respects. Specifically, the licensees emergency action level scheme change submittal documents contained emergency action level declaration threshold values (i.e., setpoints) that could not be indicated by the specified plant equipment. The information was material to the NRCs decision whether to approve a license amendment request. The NRC approved a license amendment for an emergency action level scheme on July 18, 2011, which included emergency action levels which could not be implemented; the information submitted was material to the NRC because the approval of those emergency action levels in the licensing action was based on the incorrect information submitted by the licensee.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Licensee-Identified Non-Cited Violation 71114.04 This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Violation: The inspectors reviewed a licensee identified violation of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) for the failure to maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets, in part, the planning standards of § 50.47(b), including 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4), which requires that a standard emergency classification/action level (EAL) scheme is in use by nuclear facility licensees. Contrary to the above, from September 14, 2011, through February 24, 2021, the licensee failed to maintain an appropriate EAL scheme such that Unusual Event and Alert EALs associated with some effluent releases could be accurately identified and declared consistent with the NEI 99-01, Revision 5-based EAL scheme approved by the NRC for the licensee's use on July 18, 2011. Six liquid effluent radiation monitors and one gaseous effluent radiation monitor had detection ranges which were incapable of detecting the threshold values in the Abnormal Radiation EALs AU1 and AA1 as implemented in the Emergency Plan implementing procedure EP-001-001, Recognition and Classification of Emergencies, Revisions 29 through 33.

Significance/Severity: Green. The finding was evaluated using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix B, "Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process," issued September 22, 2015, and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green), because it was a failure to comply with NRC requirements, was associated with a risk-significant planning standard, and was not a lost or degraded planning standard function. Specifically, the finding was associated with EALs which had been rendered ineffective such that any Alert or NOUE would not be declared or declared in a degraded manner for a particular off-normal event.

Corrective Action References: The licensee identified this issue and entered it into its corrective action program for resolution in CR-WF3-2020-06312. The thresholds for the impacted effluent monitors for EALs AU1 and AA1 were corrected consistent with the individual monitor capabilities and the approved EAL scheme, and implemented in EP-001-001, Revision 34, effective March 24,
