MANAGEMENT OVERSIGHT AND CONTROLS C.1 Construction Activities C.1.1 Unit 1 and Unit 2 Construction and Testing Activity Interface Controls

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors independently assessed licensee controls, associated with Unit 2 testing activities, to prevent adverse impact on Unit 1 operational safety. The inspectors attended routine Unit 1/Unit 2 interface meetings to assess the exchange and sharing of information between the two site organizations. Periodic planning meetings were observed, at least once per week, to assess the adequacy of the licensees efforts to identify those testing activities that could potentially impact the operating unit. This included the review of select testing activities, which the licensee had screened as not affecting Unit 1, to verify the adequacy of that screening effort. Additionally, the inspectors independently assessed select testing activities to verify that potential impacts on the operating unit had been identified and adequately characterized with appropriate management strategies planned for implementation.

Specific work activities that the licensee had screened out as not affecting Unit 1 included, but were not limited to, work activities as noted in this inspection report.

b. Observations and Findings

No findings were identified.

c. Conclusions

Overall, management oversight and controls were in place for the observed preoperational tests and survelliance activities that could potentially impact the operating units.

P.1 Preoperational Activities P.1.1 Preoperational Test Program Implementation Verification (Inspection Procedure 71302)

a. Inspection Scope

02.01 (Weekly Inspection Activities): The inspectors verified that the licensees management control system was effectively discharging its responsibilities over the preoperational testing program by facility record review, direct observation of activities, tours of the facility, interviews, and discussions with licensee personnel. Preoperational testing activities during the inspection period included the following system or portions thereof:

  • 0-As systems became available for preoperational testing, inspectors toured the accessible areas of the facility to make an independent assessment of equipment conditions, plant conditions, security, and adherence to regulatory requirements. The inspectors also reviewed the following, as available and on a sampling basis, during the tours:
  • general plant/equipment conditions;
  • plant areas for fire hazards - examined fire alarms, extinguishing equipment, actuating controls, firefighting equipment, and emergency equipment for operability and also verified that ignition sources and flammable material were being controlled in accordance with the licensee's procedures;
  • activities in progress (e.g., maintenance, preoperational testing, etc.) were being conducted in accordance with the licensees procedures;
  • watched for abuse of installed instrumentation such as stepping or climbing on the instrumentation that could affect the calibration or ability to function;
  • listened for the public address system announcements to determine that blind spots do not exist; (i.e., cannot be heard clearly enough to be understood)
  • construction work force was authorized to perform activities on systems or equipment; and
  • looked for uncontrolled openings in previously cleaned or flushed systems or components.

02.02 (Monthly Inspection Activities): The inspectors reviewed maintenance activities on safety-related equipment to include work order (WO) 117714351, Check valve 2-CKV-063-0551 repair and retest, and WO 117725974, Check valve 2-CKV-063-0555 repair and retest, to verify that the activities were scheduled in accordance with developed procedures and that these procedures were adequate for the maintenance being performed.

02.03 (Quarterly Inspection Activities): The inspectors reviewed jurisdictional controls to verify that maintenance activities were performed by the proper group and sampled preventative maintenance activities to ensure satisfactory completion. The inspectors also witnessed testing of 2-PTI-99-01 and 2-PTI-99-06 and interviewed personnel to verify that the method for testing was current, that methods existed to assure personnel involved were knowledgeable of the test, that approved change methodologies were followed, that criteria for test interruptions were discussed, and that test deficiencies were properly documented.

b. Observations and Findings

No findings were identified.

c. Conclusion The licensees implementation of the preoperational test program was in accordance with procedures for those activities observed during the inspection period.

P.1.2 Preoperational Test Witnessing (Inspection Procedures 70312 and 70317)

a. Inspection Scope

Background: Previous inspection activities and background information regarding inspection procedure (IP) 70317, Reactor Protection System Test Witnessing, were documented in integrated inspection report (IIR) 05000391/2016602 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System [ADAMS] Accession Number [No]. ML16098A193). The purpose of this preoperational test inspection was to verify through direct observation, personnel interviews, and review of facility records that:

  • systems and components important to the safety of the plant are fully tested to demonstrate that they satisfy their design requirements; and
  • management controls and procedures, including quality assurance (QA)programs, necessary for operation of the facility have been documented and implemented.

Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2513 requires the preoperational test witnessing of the mandatory tests defined in IMC 2513 and five of the primal tests defined in IMC 2513.

The following inspection was performed in relation to satisfying the required preoperational test witnessing.

Inspection Activities: The inspectors witnessed activities associated with the performance of preoperational test instruction (PTI) 2-PTI-099-01, RPS & ESFAS Response Times, Revision (Rev.) 0, and 2-PTI-099-06, Reactor Protection Setpoint Verification, Rev. 0, to verify that the testing was conducted in accordance with approved procedures and to verify the adequacy of test program records and preliminary evaluation of test results. The following surveillance instruction was selected for inspection of this item:

  • 2-SI-68-14, WO 117250227, 18 Month Channel Calibration Reactor Coolant Flow Loop 1, Chanel III, Rev. 4 The inspectors assessed the following attributes associated with this test observation:
  • all test personnel were on station and had the latest revision of the procedure;
  • test prerequisites were performed;
  • plant systems were in service to support the test;
  • minimum crew requirements were met;
  • testing was performed in accordance with the approved procedure;
  • test interruptions and continuations were handled in accordance with approved procedures and documented in the chronological test log;
  • testing events and discrepancies were properly evaluated and documented in the test deficiency log;
  • testing was executed and coordinated properly;
  • data was properly collected;
  • temporary equipment was installed and tracked appropriately;
  • administrative test controls were properly followed; and
  • test personnel were using approved drawings and vendor manuals.

The inspectors observed the tests to verify that the overall test acceptance criteria were met. The inspectors conducted a review with the responsible test engineer to assure that the preliminary test evaluations were consistent with the inspectors observations.

During the tests, the inspectors observed important data gathering activities to ensure the data was properly gathered and recorded. A post-test cursory review of the test data was performed to verify legibility, traceability, and permanence of the data sheet entries.

b. Observations and Findings

No findings were identified.

c. Conclusions

The inspectors determined that the applicants test procedure was performed in a manner consistent with the guidance of procedure SMP-9, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2, Conduct of Test, Rev. 9. The inspectors determined the completed preoperational tests of the reactor protection system (RPS) and engineered safeguards features actuation system (ESFAS) was adequate. IP 70317 is closed.

SU.1 STARTUP TESTING ACTIVITIES SU.1.1 Startup Test Procedure Review (Inspection Procedures 72300 and 72578)

a. Inspection Scope

Background: The purpose of IMC 2514, Light Water Reactor Inspection Program -

Startup Testing Phase, issue date August 21, 1989, is to verify that the licensee is meeting the requirements and conditions of the facility license for precritical tests, initial fuel loading, initial criticality, low-power testing, and power ascension tests. This verification is to be achieved through reviewing procedures and records, direct observation, witnessing tests, reviewing test data, and evaluating test results.

Inspection Activities: The inspectors reviewed test procedures (2-PET-301, Core Power Distribution Factors; 2-TI-41, Incore Flux Mapping; 2-SI-0-20, Hot Channel Factors Determination; 2-SI-0-21, Excore QPTR & Axial Flux Difference; and 2-SI-0-22, Incore QPTR) to verify that the test procedures adequately addressed NRC requirements and licensing commitments outlined in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), docketed correspondence, safety evaluation report (SER), Technical Specifications (TS), and Regulatory Guide 1.68. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed test procedures to verify that the procedures contained the following administrative good practice attributes:

  • the title described the purpose of the procedure;
  • the cover page had appropriate information and approval signatures;
  • a clear statement of procedure purpose/objectives;
  • planning information such as prerequisites, precautions, required tools, reference documents, and coordination requirements;
  • acceptance criteria were clearly identified and evaluated against the source of the comparison of results with acceptance criteria;
  • adequate initial test conditions were specified;
  • the procedure included a section listing references to appropriate FSAR sections, technical specifications, drawings, specification, codes, and other requirements;
  • signoff requirements including concurrent and independent verification steps established where appropriate;
  • actions to be taken within the steps were specifically identified;
  • provisions were made for recording details of the conduct of the test, including observed deficiencies, their resolution, and retest;
  • procedure provided for identification of personnel conducting the testing and evaluating the test data;
  • the procedure, as issued, was consistent with the test description provided in the FSAR; and
  • provisions were made for the data taker to indicate the acceptability of the data.

IP 72578 inspection requirements were reviewed to:

  • Verify that the procedure contained acceptance criteria for the following:
(1) Core radial and axial power distribution, radial and axial peaking factors, and linear heat rates were determined and compared to predicted values
(2) Critical peaking factors, departure from nucleate boiling ratio (DNBR), peak linear heat rate and its location were determined and compared to predicted values
  • Verify that precautions require:
(1) DNBR within requirements
(2) Linear heat rates within TS limits
  • Verify that test conditions included:
(1) Steady state operations
(2) 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% power test conditions

b. Observations and Findings

No findings were identified. The first test is to be performed at 30%, not 25%. As discussed in R.G. 1.68, Revision 2, Paragraph C.8, power hold points (power test conditions) are approximate. The licensee may choose to select power hold points at 5%

to 10% from the 10%, 25%, and 50% power levels.

DNBR is not an acceptance criteria nor is it in the precautions to maintain DNBR within requirements. DNBR is not a measured value; it is maintained within limits by staying within the TS safety limits and within TS requirements for hot channel factors. The core power distribution is compared to predicted values in the Westinghouse WINCISE procedure which is scheduled to be performed at the 30% power level.

c. Conclusions

The inspectors determined that the applicants test procedure was written in a manner consistent with the guidance of procedure 2-TI-438, Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2 Power Ascension Test Program, Rev. 5. This completes the procedure review of startup test procedure 2-PET-301.
