COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION
REPORT 05000397/2010002
Dear Mr. Parrish:
On March 27, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Columbia Generating Station. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on April 6, 2010, with Mr. S. Oxenford, Vice President, Nuclear Generation, 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 one NRC-identified finding and one self-revealing finding of very low safety significance (Green). Both of these findings were determined to involve violations of NRC requirements. 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 Inspector at the Columbia Generating Station 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 Columbia Generating Station.
The information you provide will be considered in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0305.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000397/2010002; 01/01/2010 - 03/27/2010; Columbia Generating Station, Integrated
Resident and Regional Report; Maintenance Effectiveness
The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by regional based inspectors. Two Green noncited violations of significance 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: Mitigating Systems
- Green.
The inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for a failure to maintain reactor core isolation cooling turbine bearing oil level in the proper band in accordance with procedural requirements. Not documenting oil additions to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine per paragraph 8.0 of PPM 10.2.13, Approved Lubricants, caused a high oil level on the inboard and outboard bearing housings resulting in the reactor core isolation cooling system becoming inoperable on December 20, 2009. Corrective actions for this issue included restoring oil level in the green band and initiating interim actions at the prompting of the resident inspectors to maintain proper oil level.
This finding was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and because it affects the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low risk significance (Green) because failure to maintain the reactor core isolation cooling system oil level in the proper band did not result in the loss of a safety function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. In addition, the finding would not have likely affected other mitigating systems resulting in a total loss of their safety function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance with a work practices component H.4.b] (Section 1R12).
Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity
- Green.
The inspectors reviewed a self revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1a for a failure to provide procedures appropriate to the circumstance for rebuilding hydraulic control unit directional control valves. The failure to provide adequate instructions resulted in multiple control rod mis-positions at Columbia Generating Station.
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the configuration control attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone because it affects the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, failing to establish appropriate acceptance criteria for systems that control rod movement could lead to exceeding thermal safety limits.
Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it only affected the fuel barrier. The inspectors determined that since the inadequate procedure for evaluating the directional control valves had been in place more than 2 years in the past, the finding did not represent current plant performance. Therefore no cross cutting aspect was identified (Section 1R12).
Licensee-Identified Violations
None.
REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant Status
The station began the inspection period at a power level of 100 percent. On January 6, 2010, the station reduced power to 66 percent to perform troubleshooting on MS-V-22D intermediate position. On January 10, 2010, the station returned to 100 percent power. The facility operated at 100 percent power, with the exception of scheduled reductions in power to support minor maintenance and testing, 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 for Impending Adverse Weather Conditions
a. Inspection Scope
Since high winds were forecast in the vicinity of the facility for March 8, 2010, the inspectors reviewed the plant personnels overall preparations/protection for the expected weather conditions. On March 8, 2010, the inspectors walked down the secondary containment system because its safety-related functions could be affected, or required, as a result of high winds or tornado-generated missiles or the loss of offsite power. The inspectors evaluated the plant staffs preparations against the sites procedures and determined that the staffs actions were adequate. During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant-specific design features and the licensees procedures used to respond to specified adverse weather conditions. The inspectors also toured the plant grounds to look for any loose debris that could become missiles during a tornado. The inspectors evaluated operator staffing and accessibility of controls and indications for those systems required to control the plant. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the FSAR and performance requirements for the systems selected for inspection, and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant-specific procedures. The inspectors also reviewed a sample of corrective action program items to verify that the licensee-identified adverse weather issues at an appropriate threshold and dispositioned them through the corrective action program in accordance with station corrective action procedures. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
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:
- January 26, 2010, reactor protection system motor generator RPS-MG-1
- March, 23, 2010, diesel generator 1 following post maintenance testing
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, FSAR, 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 inspected 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.
.2 Complete Walkdown
a. Inspection Scope
On March 8, 2010, the inspectors performed a complete system alignment inspection of diesel generator 3 to verify the functional capability of the system. The inspectors selected this system because it was considered both safety significant and risk significant in the licensees probabilistic risk assessment. The inspectors inspected the system to review mechanical and electrical equipment line ups, electrical power availability, system pressure and temperature indications, as appropriate, component labeling, component lubrication, component and equipment cooling, hangers and
supports, operability of support systems, and to ensure that ancillary equipment or debris did not interfere with equipment operation. The inspectors reviewed a sample of past and outstanding work orders to determine whether any deficiencies significantly affected the system function. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the corrective action program database to ensure that system equipment-alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of one complete system walkdown sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R05 Fire Protection
.1 Quarterly Fire Inspection Tours

- March 17, 2010. missed fire tour, standby service water pump house B
- March 23, 2010, fire area DG-1, high pressure core spray diesel generator room 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 six quarterly fire-protection inspection samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Annual Fire Protection Drill Observation
a. Inspection Scope
On February 2, 2010, the inspectors observed a fire brigade activation due to smoke observation on the radwaste building elevation 471 foot level. The observation evaluated the readiness of the plant fire brigade to fight fires. The inspectors verified that the licensee staff identified deficiencies; openly discussed them in a self-critical manner at the drill debrief, and took appropriate corrective actions. Specific attributes evaluated were
- (1) proper wearing of turnout gear and self-contained breathing apparatus;
- (2) proper use and layout of fire hoses;
- (3) employment of appropriate fire fighting techniques;
- (4) sufficient firefighting equipment brought to the scene;
- (5) effectiveness of fire brigade leader communications, command, and control;
- (6) search for victims and propagation of the fire into other plant areas;
- (7) smoke removal operations;
- (8) utilization of preplanned strategies;
- (9) adherence to the preplanned drill scenario; and
- (10) drill objectives.
These activities constitute completion of one annual fire-protection inspection sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R06 Flood Protection Measures
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the FSAR, 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; inspected underground bunkers/manholes to verify the adequacy of sump pumps, level alarm circuits, cable splices subject to submergence, and drainage for bunkers/manholes; and verified that operator actions for coping with flooding can reasonably achieve the desired outcomes. The inspectors also inspected the areas 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. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.
- March 17, 2010, Electrical Manhole 4
- March 23, 2010, Standby Service Water Pump House A
These activities constitute completion of one flood protection measures inspection sample and one bunker/manhole sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.06-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R07 Heat Sink Performance

Introduction.

An NRC identified noncited violation of Technical specification 5.4.1.a was identified for failure to document oil additions to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine per paragraph 8.0 of PPM 10.2.13, Approved Lubricants, Revision 52. As a result, the reactor core isolation cooling system was inoperable for fourteen hours following a high oil level on the bearing housings.
Description.
On November 25, 2009, Energy Northwest operators found reactor core isolation cooling turbine oil level high in the yellow band. Oil level high in the yellow band requires appropriate corrective actions per PPM RCIC TURBINE OIL FILL AND PRIME, Revision 4, paragraph 4.4. Corrective actions consisted of lowering the oil level into the green band. This was documented in Action Request/Condition Report 208472. Energy Northwest took the corrective actions of providing a history of level prior to the high oil level event on November 25, 2009 and took additional actions to evaluate revising the reactor core isolation cooling operating procedures to ensure reactor core isolation cooling oil level was properly maintained.
On December 21, 2009, Energy Northwest operators discovered reactor core isolation cooling oil level high in the red band on the inboard and outboard bearing housings as documented in Action Request/Condition Report 209852. Control room operators declared the reactor core isolation cooling system inoperable and entered technical specification 3.5.3.a due to a high reactor core isolation cooling turbine oil level.
The inspectors reviewed the Terry Turbine Maintenance Guide, applicable to the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling Turbine, Final Report, dated November 2002, Report Number 1007460 to determine oil level requirements for the reactor core isolation cooling turbine oil system. Section 20.2.5 of this maintenance guide provided that turbine bearing sump oil level is critical to minimize the potential for oil aeration problems. In addition, high oil level could result in air entrainment and decrease oil drain flow to the sump, affecting bearing and turbine governor performance. NRC Information Notices 81-24, Auxiliary Feed Pump Turbine Bearing Failures, and 94-84, Air Entrainment in Terry Turbine
Lubricating Oil System, described similar industry terry turbine problems that result from improper oil levels.
On January 29, 2010, Energy Northwest more specifically identified that operating procedure changes were needed to ensure reactor core isolation cooling turbine bearing oil level is maintained in the proper band, as documented in AR/CR 208472 assignment
5. The procedure changes were to develop a consistency between log takers to keep
reactor core isolation cooling oil level in the green band per procedure PPM RCIC TURBINE OIL FILL AND PRIME. These changes included:
- documentation of oil additions and removals with the mechanical maintenance department and equipment operators
- placing a numeric scale on outboard bearing housing reservoir on the standstill oil level indicator for monitoring and trending, this would develop consistency between log takers, require that logs would be taken only on the outboard sight glass
- review changes and notes with equipment operators
- generate an engineering evaluation to determine the correct oil level
- add a sight glass accumulator to dampen level changes
On February 8, 2010, the resident inspectors questioned Energy Northwest operations personnel on what interim actions were in place to prevent re-occurrence of reactor core isolation cooling turbine high oil levels. The inspectors were concerned that if interim actions were not in place prior to the implementation of procedure changes due March 31, 2010, equipment operators and maintenance personnel may not maintain reactor core isolation cooling turbine oil levels in the proper band. Energy Northwest took immediate corrective action and initiated night order 1122, dated February 8, 2010 which states to, Use the outboard housing reservoir oil level indicator. When oil level is in the yellow band, contact a fix it now mechanic to correct the yellow band oil level back to the green band. This contact should be done on the same shift or the next shift that a fix it now mechanic is onsite. Write a condition report and work request to document the issue.
This night order will remain in place until a numeric scale (-20 mm to +20mm) is in place on the outboard bearing housing reservoir on the standstill oil level indicator for monitoring and trending.
Energy Northwest performed an apparent cause analysis for this issue under Action Request/Condition Report 209852. This apparent cause determined that with small additions of oil to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine, a significant change in sight glass levels occur due to the narrow oil level bands. Contributing causes to this issue were oil addition to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine were not documented and log taking techniques by different equipment operators were not consistent.
Analysis.
The failure to document oil addition to the RCIC turbine per PPM 10.2.13, paragraph 8.0, revision 52 was a performance deficiency. This finding was more than
minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and because it affects the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low risk significance (Green) because failure to maintain the reactor core isolation cooling system oil level in the proper band did not result in the loss of a safety function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance with a work practices component H.4.b]. Specifically, not defining and effectively communicating procedural compliance involving documenting oil addition to the RCIC turbine caused system inoperability due to a high oil level.
Enforcement.
Technical Specification 5.4.1a requires that procedures be established, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Section 4.g of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, recommends procedures for operation and maintenance of the reactor core isolation cooling system. Procedure PPM 10.2.13, Approved Lubricants, Revision 52, partially implemented this requirement. Paragraph 8 of procedure PPM 10.2.13, requires documenting oil additions to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine. Contrary to this, Energy Northwest failed to document oil additions to the reactor core isolation cooling turbine. As a result, oil level was found in the red band resulting in the inoperability of the reactor core isolation cooling system for fourteen hours. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program as action request/condition report 209852, the issue is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 5000397/2010002-01, Failure to maintain reactor core isolation cooling turbine bearing oil level in accordance with the applicable operating procedure requirements.

Introduction.
=
The inspectors reviewed a self revealing noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for failure to provide procedures appropriate to the circumstance for rebuilding hydraulic control unit directional control valves. The failure to provide adequate instructions resulted in multiple control rod mis-positions at Columbia Generating Station.
Description.
Between June 2009 and October 2009 Columbia Generating Station experienced six separate occasions of control rods not responding as intended. Two occasions were due to a rod drifting out from its full in position, on one occasion a rod would not move from its full in position, on three occasion rods did not move to their intended locations. Each occurrence is summarized below:
- June 12, 2009 - Following scram time testing during refuel outage R19, control rod 4647 began to drift out. Control rod 4647 was then inserted by operators and began to drift out again after reaching its full in position. Operators then entered ABN-ROD and inserted control rod 4647 and closed the insert isolation valve for control rod 4647. Control rod 4647 began to drift out again and operators had to reopen the insert isolation valve and insert control rod 4647.
Control rod 4647 was again inserted to its full in position, and both the insert and
withdrawal isolation valves were closed and control rod 4647 remained in the full in position.
- June 17, 2009 - Following testing of the alternate rod insertion system, control rod 4647 began to drift out after being scrammed. Control rod 4647 was inserted manually to its full in position but continued to drift back out. Control rod 4647 was then continuously inserted and isolated by closing the insert and withdrawal valves.
- August 27, 2009 - During pre-startup control rod venting, control rod 4203 would not withdraw from the full in position. Many attempts were made to move the control rod using procedure ABN-ROD. This included applying continuous insert and withdraw signals for periods of time up to 15 minutes, attempting to move the rod with elevated drive header pressure, and by attempting to move the control rod by double clutching the rod at elevated drive header pressure.
Through out the attempts, the control rod did not move.
- August 31, 2009 - During plant startup, control rod 2203 withdrew to the 06 position when given a signal to withdraw to the 02 position. The rod was subsequently inserted to the full in position and another attempt to withdraw the rod to the 02 position was made. This attempt was unsuccessful due to control rod 2203 withdrawing to the 06 position again. Control rod 2203 was then inserted to the 04 position and plant start up continued.
- October 2, 2009 - During plant startup, control rod 3459 withdrew from 02 to 10 when a single notch rod withdrawal signal was given. Control rod 3459 was inserted to 00 per ABN-ROD, and was declared inoperable. An engineering evaluation was performed and plant startup was allowed to continue.
- October 3, 2009 - During plant startup, while moving control rod 5043 from position 08 to12 by single notch rod withdrawal there was no position indication at position 10. Operators entered procedure ABN-RPIS which allowed operators to enter a substituted position in the rod worth minimizer. While moving control rod 5043 from the now substituted position 10 to position 12, there was no position indication at position 12. Referring back to ABN-RPIS for further actions, the rod was fully inserted to the 00 position. While inserting the rod to the full in position, rod position indication did not return until the full in position was reached. An engineering evaluation was performed and plant startup was allowed to continue.
After each of the above occurrences the directional control valves were disassembled and evaluated. All of the valves had some sort of irregularity associated with them.
Two valves had large deposits of corrosion products, one valve had a white ring which indicated the valve had not been properly cleaned. Another valve was worn to a point that it should have been rejected by the rebuild process. The last valve had a 360 degree groove in the valve. Three additional valves were inspected that were ready to be installed in the plant to see if any abnormalities existed. One of the three valves had obvious scratching on the inner bore. The scratching appears to have been introduced
during the bore cleaning process. The scratches should have caused rejection of the valve body and the valve should not have been rebuilt.
Due to the number of failures and the relatively short time period with which they occurred Columbia Generating Station performed a common cause analysis for all these occurences. It was determined that the work instructions were not specific in their bore cleaning and acceptance criteria for the directional control valves. An inspection of the bore was made, but details on rejectable conditions did not exist.
Analysis.
The inspectors determined that the failure to provide adequate details on what constitutes a rejectable condition for directional control valves is a performance deficiency. This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the configuration control attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone because it affects the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events.
Specifically, failing to establish appropriate acceptance criteria for systems that control rod movement could lead to exceeding thermal safety limits. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it only affected the fuel barrier. The inspectors determined that since the inadequate procedure for evaluating the directional control valves had been in place more than 2 years in the past, the finding did not represent current plant performance. Therefore no cross cutting aspect was identified (Section 1R12).
Enforcement.
Technical Specification 5.4.1a requires that procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Section 4.b of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, recommends procedures for operation of the control rod drive system. Procedure PPM 10.5.9, CRD/Hydraulic Control Unit Refurbishment, Revision 14, partially implemented this requirement. Contrary to this, the licensee failed to maintain Procedure PPM 10.5.9 by not including adequate acceptance criteria in Procedure PPM 10.5.9 to prevent directional control valves that should have been rejected by the rebuilding process from being returned to service. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program as action request/condition report 205460, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000397/2010002-02, Failure to Provide Adequate Acceptance Criteria.
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:
- January 4, 2010, orange risk condition due to service water system B being out
of service for planned maintenance
- February 8, 2010, yellow risk due to standby gas treatment train A being out of service and Bonneville Power Administration breaker maintenance
- February 22, 2010, yellow risk due to diesel generator 3 turbocharger
replacement and high pressure core spray planned maintenance
- March 22, 2010, yellow risk due to diesel generator 1 planned outage
- March 23, 2010, yellow risk due to high pressure core spray planned
maintenance and reactor recirculation pump RRC-P-1 planned work 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 five 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:
- January 3, 2010, Action Request/Condition Report 210420, MS-V22D-Steam
Line D Indicated Flow Change

water found in DG-1 cylinder 1 petcock
- February 28, 2010, Action Request/Condition Report 213502, Diesel Generator
3 Governor Hunting While Fully Loaded After an Hour Run
- March 22, 2010, Action Request/Condition Report 214706, Evidence of Plugging
in Service Water Supply/Return for LPCS-M-P/1
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 FSAR to the licensee personnels 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.
These activities constitute completion of four operability evaluations inspection sample(s) as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-04.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R18 Plant Modifications

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, Emergency Preparedness, Public Radiation Safety, Occupational Radiation Safety, and Physical Protection
.1 Routine Review of Identification and Resolution of Problems
a. Inspection Scope
As part of the various baseline inspection procedures discussed in previous sections of this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify that they were being entered into the licensees corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and addressed. The inspectors reviewed attributes that included the complete and accurate identification of the problem; the timely correction, commensurate with the safety significance; the evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent of condition reviews, and previous occurrences reviews; and the classification, prioritization, focus, and timeliness of corrective actions. Minor issues entered into the licensees corrective action program because of the inspectors observations are included in the attached list of documents reviewed.
These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure, they were considered an integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter and documented in Section 1 of this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews
a. Inspection Scope
In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the licensees corrective action program. The inspectors accomplished this through review of the stations daily corrective action documents.
The inspectors performed these daily reviews as part of their daily plant status monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.3 Selected Issue Follow-up Inspection
a. Inspection Scope
During a review of items entered in the licensees corrective action program, the inspectors recognized a corrective action item documenting a negative trend for troubleshooting, AR/CR 212671, dated March 16, 2010. The inspectors performed a review of the licensees corrective action program and associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors review was focused on repetitive equipment and corrective maintenance issues but also considered the results of daily inspector corrective action program item screening discussed in Section 4OA2.1. The review also included issues documented outside the normal corrective action program in system health reports, corrective maintenance work orders, component status reports, and maintenance rule assessments. The inspectors review nominally considered the six-month period of October 2008 through March 2009, although some examples expanded beyond those dates when the scope of the trend warranted. Corrective actions associated with identified trends were reviewed for adequacy.
These activities constitute completion of one in-depth problem identification and resolution sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71152-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.4 Semi-Annual Trend Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a review of the licensees corrective action program and associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors focused their review on repetitive issues related to temporary modifications, but also considered the results of daily corrective action item screening discussed in Section 4OA2.2, above, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human performance results. The inspectors nominally considered the 6-month period of January through June 2009, although some examples expanded beyond those dates where the scope of the trend warranted.
The inspectors also included issues documented outside the normal corrective action program in major equipment problem lists, repetitive and/or rework maintenance lists, departmental problem/challenges lists, system health reports, quality assurance audit/surveillance reports, self-assessment reports, and Maintenance Rule assessments.
The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensees corrective action program trending reports. Corrective actions associated with a sample of the issues identified in the licensees trending reports were reviewed for adequacy.
These activities constitute completion of one single semi-annual trend inspection sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71152-05.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
4OA3 Event Follow-up
.1 Action Request/Condition Report 210420, MS-V-22D-STEAM LINE D INDICATED
FLOW CHANGE, JANUARY 3, 2010
MS-V-22D did not indicate full open after performing surveillance testing on December 19, 2009. Main steam line D flow data showed that flow did not return to normal after MS-V-22D indicated intermediate. This indication called into question the ability of the valve to meet its design function of closing when called upon. Energy Northwests subsequent troubleshooting performed on the valve resulted in an initial declaration of inoperable which required the main steam line be isolated and the plant to be at a lower power level. Further testing by Energy Northwest demonstrated that MS-V-22D would close as required per technical specifications. Energy Northwests root cause analysis was not able to determine a root cause for the failure of MS-V-22D. This issue will be addressed in the Component Design Basis Inspection as documented in report number 2010-006.
.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000397/2009-005-00: Manual Reactor Scram due to
Main Turbine DEH Control System Fluid Leak
This Licensee Event Report documents the loss of system pressure in the main turbine
digital electro-hydraulic control (DEH) system on November 7, 2009, as the result of the
catastrophic failure of an o-ring on accumulator DEH-TK-1D. After receiving a DEH
reservoir low-low level alarm in the control room, operators inserted a manual scram of
the reactor. The licensee determined that the cause of the o-ring failure was improper
reassembly of the flanged joint containing the failed o-ring following maintenance during
the previous refueling outage. A self-revealing finding for the failure of the licensee to
provide an adequate maintenance procedure was previously documented as FIN 05000397/2009005-05. The inspectors reviewed this Licensee Event Report and did not
identify any violations of regulatory requirements or any additional findings. This
Licensee Event Report is closed.
4OA5 Other Activities
.1 Quarterly Resident Inspector Observations of Security Personnel and Activities
a. Inspection Scope
During the inspection period, the inspectors performed observations of security force personnel and activities to ensure that the activities were consistent with Columbia
Generating Stations security procedures and regulatory requirements relating to nuclear plant security. These observations took place during both normal and off-normal plant working hours.
These quarterly resident inspector observations of security force personnel and activities did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Rather, they were considered an integral part of the inspectors normal plant status review and inspection activities.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
