SUBJECT:

SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 50-400/02-04

Dear Mr. Scarola:

On September 28, 2002, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Shearon Harris reactor facility. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection findings which were discussed on September 30, 2002, with you and other members of your staff.

The inspection 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.

Based on the results of this inspection, the inspectors identified 3 issues of very low safety significance (Green). All of these issues were determined to involve violations of NRC requirements. However, because of their very low safety significance and because they have been entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these issues as non-cited violations, in accordance with Section VI.A.1 of the NRCs Enforcement Policy. A licensee-identified violation of very low safety significance is listed in section 4OA7 of the report.

If you deny these non-cited violations, you should provide a response with the basis for your denial, within 30 days of the date of this inspection report to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001, with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Shearon Harris facility.

CP&L 2 In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) components of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS IR 05000400-02-04; Carolina Power & Light; on June 30, 2002 - September 28, 2002; Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1. Flood Protection Measures, Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems, Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program.

The inspection was conducted by resident inspectors, a reactor inspector, a project engineer, and three radiation specialists. The inspection identified 3 green findings, all of which were non-cited violations. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (green, white, yellow, red) using IMC 0609 Significance Determination Process (SDP). The NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process, Revision 3, dated July 2000.

A. Inspector Identified Findings Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity

  • Green. A non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion XVI was identified for failing to identify that the 4 refueling water storage tank level transmitters did not meet General Design Criteria 2 for protection from flooding when, on two occasions (July and August 2001), 1 of 4 transmitters was affected by rain water accumulation and declared inoperable.

This issue was of very low risk significance because of the low probability of the flooding condition that would cause Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) transmitter failure coinciding with the need for the RWST contents, and because operator action in the mitigating system cornerstone would negate any equipment damage, and because another multi-train containment heat removal system was available in the barrier integrity cornerstone. (Section 1R06)

Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety

The finding was of very low safety significance because it involved the failure to meet a regulatory requirement but did not significantly impair the licensees ability to assess results of gaseous effluent particulate releases to the offsite environs. (Section 2PS1)

  • Green. An NCV of TS 6.8.1 was identified for the failure to properly implement Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program continuous airborne monitoring activities specified in the ODCM Table 3.12-1.

The finding was of very low safety significance because it involved the failure to meet a regulatory requirement but did not significantly impair the licensees ability to corroborate results of effluent releases to the offsite environs. (Section 2PS3)

B. Licensee Identified Violations Violations of very low safety significance, which were identified by the licensee have been reviewed by the inspectors. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensees corrective action program. These violations and corrective action tracking numbers are listed in Section 40A7 of this report.

Report Details Summary of Plant Status The unit operated at 100% of rated thermal power until July 13 when a manual reactor trip was inserted due to a problem with digital electro-hydraulic control of the turbine generator. The unit was restarted on July 13 and reached 100% power on July 18. An automatic reactor trip on August 15 was caused by reactor coolant pump bus under-voltage due to a severe grid disturbance. The unit was restarted on August 16 and reached 100% power on August 18.

The unit remained at 100% power for the remainder of the inspection period.

1. REACTOR SAFETY Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity 1R04 Equipment Alignment a. Inspection Scope Partial Walkdown For the systems identified below, the inspectors reviewed the identified plant documents to determine the correct system lineup, and observed equipment to verify that the system was correctly aligned:

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R06 Flood Protection Measures a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the licensees internal flooding analysis, and selected the reactor auxiliary building 236-foot elevation for detailed review. That elevation includes the auxiliary feedwater pumps, the component cooling water pumps, and the charging/safety injection pumps. For that elevation, the inspectors reviewed the licensees analysis of the effects of flooding resulting from postulated piping failures, as described in the following documents, to determine whether that analysis contained reasonable assumptions and conclusions based on the current plant configuration:

  • FSAR section 3.6A.6, Flooding Analysis,
  • Calculation #PRA-F/E-5, RAB Unit 1Elevation 236 Compartment Flood Analysis,
  • Drawing CAR 2165-M578-S02, Flood Analysis Reactor Auxiliary Building Elevation 236.

To verify that the procedures for coping with flooding can reasonably be used to achieve the desired actions, the inspectors reviewed procedures AOP-022, Loss of Service Water, OP-139, Service Water System, and APP-ALB-02, Main Control Board.

The inspectors performed a field walk-down of the selected area, to determine whether the physical configuration of the area was consistent with the assumptions in the documents.

The inspectors reviewed the licensees analysis of the effects of external flooding, as described in FSAR section 2.4.10, Flooding Protection Requirements. The inspectors reviewed the following ARs associated with this area to determine whether the licensee identified and implemented appropriate corrective actions:

AR Number Title/Description 64077 Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Level transmitter flooding b. Findings Introduction Green. A non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion XVI was identified for failing to identify that the 4 refueling water storage tank level transmitters did not meet General Design Criteria 2 for protection from flooding when, on two occasions (July and August 2001), 1 of 4 transmitters was affected by rain water accumulation and declared inoperable.

Description On two occasions (July 4 and August 11, 2001), one of four RWST level transmitter were affected by rainwater collection in the RWST pit. The external flooding analysis in FSAR section 3.4 does not take into consideration that the RWST pit does not runoff to other areas and does not have an open drain. Although a drain is installed in the pit, the drain isolation valve is shut and must be opened by operators to pump the pit.

Consequently, the RWST level transmitters, located approximately 18 inches off the floor, are susceptible to submergence from rain water during probable maximum precipitation situations. Since the RWST is designed with only a half-height wall for protection against tornado missiles, a missile hit that punctured the tank at least 20 inches below the water line would also flood out the level transmitters. The inspectors found that the 4 RWST level transmitters, including the associated conduit and junction box, were not qualified for submergence. This is a common-cause failure vulnerability for all 4 RWST level transmitters that would cause the transmitters to fail low.

Analysis The initiator of the common-cause failure of the RWST level transmitters would be either a rainfall of approximately 10 inches in 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, or a missile impacting the tank from a

tornado. For this initiator to have a safety consequence, a safety injection and containment spray start signal must also be present during the time of transmitter failure. This issue was greater than minor because it affected the reliability of a mitigating system cornerstone safety function and the performance of a barrier integrity safety system. The safety function of the RWST level transmitters was to provide a signal at 23.4% level in the RWST that coincident with a safety injection signal, for the low head safety injection (LHSI) system, or a containment spray pump running signal, for the containment spray system, would open each systems containment sump suction valves providing a suction path to the pumps from the containment sump. The failure due to flooding of at least 2 of 4 RWST level transmitters, in the previously described scenario, would prematurely open the containment sump suction valves to the pumps without adequate water inventory in the sump to ensure adequate net positive suction head. The RWST isolation valves to the LHSI pumps are controlled manually.

Consequently, the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP-Path 1, EOP-EPP-10, and EOP-EPP-12) provide for keeping the RWST isolation valve to the LHSI pump open (in addition to the containment sump valves), preventing damage to the LHSI pumps.

However, the RWST isolation valves to the containment spray system are controlled automatically and will shut following sump valve opening, after a short time delay. For those situations where containment spray is needed, the pressure in containment would be such that the RWST would not substantially drain to the containment sump. The result is that the containment spray pumps would be aligned to an almost-empty sump with the RWST isolated. This would damage both containment spray pumps. Shutting off the containment spray pumps is not specified by the procedures. A phase 3 significance determination process evaluation found that this issue was of very low safety significance because of the low probability of the flooding condition that would cause RWST transmitter failure coincident with the need for the RWST contents. Core damage would require not only the occurrence of a tornado or heavy rainfall but also a total loss of secondary side heat removal and the failure of control room operators to perform an easy proceduralized recovery action. Loss of containment spray would have no impact on core damage, and since another multi-train system was available to remove containment heat, there would be very little impact on containment pressure control. Consequently, because barrier integrity would not be challenged, the performance deficiency was GREEN.

Enforcement 10CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires that conditions adverse to quality, such as deficiencies and nonconformances, are promptly identified and corrected. 10CFR50, Appendix A, Criterion 2, Design Bases for Protection Against Natural Phenomena requires that structures, systems, and components important to safety shall be designed to withstand the effects of natural phenomena such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods without loss of capability to perform their safety functions. The design bases shall reflect appropriate consideration of the most severe of the natural phenomena, appropriate combinations of the effects of normal and accident conditions with the effects of the natural phenomena, and, the importance of the safety functions to be performed. Contrary to the above, from July 4, 2001 until June 18, 2002, the licensee failed to identify a condition adverse to quality for the refueling water storage tank level transmitter location in that the transmitters were not designed to withstand the effects of flooding and perform their design safety function,

but were installed in a location where they could be submerged from severe rain or from water leakage due to a hole in the RWST from a tornado missile. This issue is in the licensees corrective action program as Action Request 64290 and has been designated a Non-cited Violation (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. It is identified as NCV 50-400/02-04-01, Failure to identify that the RWST level transmitters were susceptible to flooding. Before the end of the inspection period the licensee completed a design change to install transmitters that will function while submerged.

1R07 Heat Sink Performance a. Inspection Scope To determine the licensees approach to heat exchanger performance monitoring, the inspectors reviewed the following documents:

  • Licensee Generic Letter 89-13 responses The inspectors reviewed results of the 1B-SB Component Cooling Water heat exchanger performance inspection conducted on November 6, 2001 using procedure EPT-163, to verify that:
  • potential fouling situations were identified and corrected,
  • inspection results were appropriately categorized against pre-established acceptance criteria and the results from the previous inspection in refueling outage 8,
  • the frequency of inspection was sufficient to detect degradation prior to loss of heat removal capability below design basis values, and
  • the licensee had developed acceptance criteria for its bio-fouling controls.

The inspectors reviewed photographs of the service water side of the heat exchanger taken during the inspection and compared the current condition to that shown in pictures from the previous inspection, but did not physically observe the inside of the heat exchanger.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed licensed operator requalification simulator training for crew D on August 22. This observation included emergency operating procedure (EOP) and abnormal operating procedure (AOP) scenarios. The scenarios tested the operators ability to respond to a loss of a safety electrical bus and small break loss of coolant accident. The inspectors focused on clarity and formality of communication, use of procedures, alarm response, control board manipulations, group dynamics and supervisory oversight. The training used Exercise Guide DSS-005.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R12 Maintenance Rule Implementation

.1 Quarterly Evaluation a. Inspection Scope The inspectors selected the two equipment issues described below, by reviewing a list of significant corrective action documents for the last two years and by reviewing the licensees maintenance rule a(1) list. The inspectors reviewed the licensees evaluation/corrective actions from corrective action program documents and the maintenance rule data base. The inspectors independently evaluated the licensees handling of the issues in relation to the following:

  • the work practices involved,
  • whether common cause was involved,
  • whether corrective actions were adequate to correct the problem, and
  • whether the issues were appropriately addressed in the Maintenance Rule (10 CFR 50.65) with respect to the characterization of failures, whether performance criteria were exceeded (reliability and unavailability), and if so, the appropriateness of either the associated a(2) performance criteria or the associated a(1) goals AR Number Subject/Description.

62606 EDG B overspeed trip valve failure 55256 Pre-entry purge containment isolation valve (1CP-1) repetitive functional failure.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Periodic Evaluation a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the licensees Maintenance Rule periodic assessment, Harris Nuclear Plant Maintenance Rule Cycle 10, Periodic (a)(3) Assessment, dated May 28, 2002. The assessment was issued to satisfy paragraph (a)(3) of 10 CFR 50.65, and covered the period of May 12, 2000 through January 3, 2002. The inspection was to determine if the assessment was issued in accordance with the time requirement of the Maintenance Rule, and included evaluation of: balancing reliability and unavailability, (a)(1) activities, (a)(2) activities, and use of industry operating experience. To verify compliance with 10 CFR 50.65, the inspectors reviewed selected Maintenance Rule activities covered by the assessment period for the following risk significant systems:

Residual Heat Removal (RHR), Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW), Emergency Service Water (ESW), and 6.9 kilovolt (KV) AC Distribution. A list of documents reviewed is included in the attachment.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Evaluation a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the licensees risk assessments and the risk management actions used by the licensee to manage risk for the plant configurations associated with the following planned activities:

2. RADIATION SAFETY Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety 2OS1 Access Control To Radiologically Significant Areas

.1 Access Controls a. Inspection Scope Licensee program activities for monitoring workers and controlling access to radiologically significant areas and tasks were inspected. The inspectors evaluated procedural guidance; directly observed implementation of administrative and established physical controls; assessed worker exposures to radiation and radioactive material; and appraised radiation worker and technician knowledge of, and proficiency in implementing radiation protection program activities.

During the onsite inspection, radiological controls for maintenance activities requiring breach of the B waste monitor tank, a contaminated radioactive waste system located in close proximity to a high radiation area, were observed and discussed. In addition, access controls and monitoring for five radiologically significant tasks conducted since October 1, 2001, were evaluated. The evaluations included, as applicable, Radiation Work Permit (RWP) details; use and placement of dosimetry to monitor occupational exposures involving significant dose gradients; and electronic alarming dosimetry (EAD)

set-points and use in loud noise areas. Effectiveness of established controls were assessed against area radiation and contamination survey results, potential for transient elevated dose rates, and occupational doses received. Physical and administrative controls and their implementation for locked-high radiation area (LHRA) keys and for storage of highly activated material within the spent fuel pools were evaluated through direct observation and record reviews.

Occupational workers adherence to selected RWPs and Health Physics technician (HPT) proficiency in providing job coverage were evaluated through direct observations, review of selected exposure records and investigations, and interviews with licensee Health Physics (HP) staff. Occupational exposure data associated with direct radiation, potential radioactive material intakes, and from discrete radioactive particle (DRP) or dispersed skin contamination events identified from October 1, 2001 through June 17, 2002, were reviewed and assessed independently.

During the week of July 8, 2002, radiological postings and physical controls for access to designated HRA or LHRA locations within the Waste Processing Building (WPB) and Reactor Auxiliary Building (RAB) were examined during facility tours. In addition, the inspectors independently measured radiation dose rates and evaluated established posting and access controls for the following areas and equipment:

  • WPB 236 foot () elevation, A Waste Monitor Tank Room,
  • WPB 261' elevation, Radioactive Waste Storage Area and Truck Bay,
  • WPB 261' elevation, Demineralizer Skid and Filter Backwash Areas,
  • RAB 236 elevation, Moderating and Letdown Heat Exchanger Area,

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Personnel Survey Instrumentation a. Inspection Scope Current program guidance, including calibration and operation procedures, and its implementation to maintain operability and accuracy of selected portable survey instruments was reviewed and evaluated. During the week of July 8, 2002, the inspectors reviewed current calibration data for selected personnel survey instruments and assessed operability of various portable survey instruments staged, or in use by the Health Physics (HP) staff. Responsible staffs knowledge and proficiency regarding portable survey instrumentation calibration activities were evaluated through interviews, record reviews, and direct observation of an RO-2 portable survey instrument calibration. Instrument selection and operability determinations conducted by HP technicians prior to performing selected radiological surveys and monitoring were reviewed. The accuracy and operability determinations for instrumentation used to perform surveys in high radiation or greater areas were assessed.

Operability and analysis capabilities of the whole body counting (WBC) equipment for monitoring internally deposited radionuclides and Individual Personnel Monitor (IPM)

equipment utilized for surveys of individuals exiting the radiologically controlled area (RCA) were evaluated. For both WBC and IPM equipment, the inspectors examined current calibration and selected daily/ monthly performance check data, as applicable; and directly observed IMP monthly performance surveillances. Selected WBC data analysis sheets results were reviewed and discussed with responsible staff to assess

knowledge and proficiency in evaluating WBC results. The licensees capabilities to expand the routinely used WBC radionuclide library data was assessed.

Licensee activities associated personnel radiation monitoring instrumentation were reviewed against TS, 10 CFR 20.1204 and 20.1501, and applicable licensee procedures listed in the attachment to this report .

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.3 Respiratory Protection - Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)

a. Inspection Scope The licensees respiratory protection program guidance and its implementation for Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) equipment use was evaluated. The number of staged SCBA units and their general material and operating condition were observed during tours of the Control Room, Technical Support Center, and Operations Support Center. The inspectors reviewed and evaluated current records associated with supplied air quality, and maintenance of staged SCBA equipment. Proficiency and knowledge of staff responsible for maintaining SCBA equipment were evaluated through discussions and demonstration of a SCBA quarterly functional test. During the week of July 8, 2002, the inspectors reviewed records and evaluated status of medical qualification determinations, fit test results, and training status for eight on-shift Emergency Response Organization personnel. In addition, staff members were interviewed to determine their level of knowledge of available SCBA equipment locations, proper use, and availability of prescription lens inserts, if required.

Licensee activities associated with maintenance and use of SCBA equipment were reviewed against TS; 10 CFR Part 20.1703; FSAR §11; Emergency Plan Details; RG 8.15, Acceptable Programs for Respiratory Protection, Rev. 1, October 1999; ANSI-Z88.2-1992, American National Standard Practices for Respiratory Protection; and applicable procedures listed in the attachment to this report.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety 2PS1 Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems

.1 Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems a. Inspection Scope The operability, availability, and reliability of selected effluent process sampling and detection equipment used for routine and accident monitoring activities were reviewed and evaluated. Inspection activities included record reviews and direct observation of equipment installation and operation. The following effluent monitoring equipment was included in the inspection:

  • Condensate Vacuum Pump Effluent Treatment System Radiation Monitor (REM-01TV-3534)
  • Turbine Building Vent Stack Accident Radiation Monitor (RM-01TV-3536-1)
  • Plant Vent Stack Accident Radiation Monitor (RM-21AV-3509-1SA)
  • Waste Processing Building Stack 5 Radiation Monitor (REM-1WV-3546)

During the week of July 8, 2002, the inspectors directly observed process effluent sampling and monitoring equipment material condition, installed configurations (where accessible), and operability; evaluated local and control room data regarding flow rates and weekly channel response checks; and reviewed and evaluated established release set-points. In addition, five effluent release permits completed and documented since October 1, 2001, were reviewed, discussed, and evaluated. The evaluation assessed sample representativeness, radionuclide concentration sensitivities, achieved analyses accuracies; pre-release dose calculation completeness, and adequacy of effluent radiation monitor set-point determinations.

Both the licensee and vendor laboratories quality control (QC) program activities for liquid and airborne sample radionuclide analyses were evaluated. The inspectors discussed and reviewed, as applicable, laboratory QC activities including current gamma spectroscopy and liquid scintillation detection equipment calibrations and daily system performance results; preparation, processing and storage of composite samples; radionuclide lower limit of detection (LLD) capabilities and achieved accuracies; and results of the quarterly cross-check spiked radionuclide samples analyzed during calendar year (CY) 2001.

The inspectors directly observed and evaluated chemistry staff proficiency in conducting weekly plant vent surveillance activities, including particulate filter and charcoal cartridge change-out. Also, technician proficiency in conducting pre-release processing,

sampling, and gamma spectroscopy analyses was observed and evaluated. Interviews were conducted with two chemistry technicians to evaluate staff proficiency and knowledge of effluent release requirements, equipment capabilities, and procedural details.

Program guidance, equipment configuration and material condition for the effluent sampling and monitoring equipment were reviewed against details documented in TS, 10 CFR Part 20, FSAR §11, Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), ANSI-N13.1-1969, Guide to Sampling Airborne Radioactive Materials in Nuclear Facilities; ANSI-N13.10-1974, ANS Specification and Performance of On-Site Instrumentation for Continuously Monitoring Radioactivity in Effluents, and approved procedures listed in the Attachment to this report.

In-place liquid effluent release equipment, observed task evolutions, and offsite dose results were evaluated against 10 CFR Part 20 requirements, Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 design criteria, TS, FSAR details, ODCM, and applicable procedures listed in Attachment to this report. Laboratory QC activities were evaluated against RG 1.21, Measuring, Evaluating and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials In Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water Cooled Nuclear Power Plant, June 1974; and RG 4.15, Quality Assurance for Radiological Monitoring Programs (Normal Operation) - Effluent Streams and the Environment, December 1977.

b. Findings Introduction Green. A non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 6.8.1 was identified for the failure to properly implement calibration procedures used in monitoring airborne effluent particulate samples required by the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)

Table 4.11-2.

Description During observation and evaluation of chemistry staff proficiency in conducting weekly plant vent particulate filter and charcoal cartridge change-out surveillances, the inspectors identified a gasket in airborne effluent process particulate and charcoal sample holders that covered a large portion of the outer edge of the 47 millimeter (mm)

diameter filter. This gasket effectively reduced the diameter of the particulate filters active surface area to approximately 35 mm. The inspectors noted that the 35 mm diameter of the collection surface was inconsistent with the 47 mm diameter counting geometry used to calibrate the gamma spectroscopy analysis equipment and did not meet guidance specified in licensee Radiation and Chemistry Procedure (RCP)-703, Calibration and Quality Control Set-up of the Genie Spectroscopy System, Revision (Rev) 7, which specified that physical calibration source geometries be as close as practicable to the actual sample geometries.

At the time of the onsite inspection, the magnitude of the effect of the identified geometry differences on the accuracy of airborne effluent radionuclide particulate concentration measurements could not be evaluated. Subsequently, the licensee

evaluated the affect of the observed geometry differences on particulate filter energy calibration efficiencies for each of their four gamma spectroscopy systems and for those shelf heights which could have potentially been used for analyses. From review of the licensee evaluation data provided to the NRC on August 9, 2002, the inspectors noted that for the majority of gamma spectroscopy systems and available system shelf heights used for analyses, the efficiency differences would have resulted in a positive bias in reporting any particulate radionuclide concentrations in airborne effluents. Reported differences in the calculated energy efficiencies ranged from a slight bias, less than plus or minus five percent, for analyses conducted using shelf three on gamma spectroscopy system Number (No.) 1 to a positive bias exceeding 21 percent for analyses of low energy gamma emitters analyzed on the detector face of system No. 4. From discussions with responsible licensee representatives and review of RCP-703 procedure guidance, the inspectors noted that during performance of actual calibrations or calibration checks of gamma spectroscopy systems, identified differences in energy efficiencies exceeding five percent require further review and/or re-analysis.

Analysis The inspectors noted that the failure to use proper airborne particulate source geometry to calibrate gamma spectroscopy system affected programs and equipment used to monitor effluent releases used to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian reactor operations. This finding was evaluated using the Public Radiation Significance Determination Process (SDP) and determined to be of very low safety significance because it involved the failure to meet a regulatory requirement but did not significantly affect assessment of particulate radionuclide concentrations in airborne effluents. From review of annual effluent reports and discussion of recent operational history with cognizant licensee representatives, release of radionuclide particulates in airborne effluents was negligible.

Enforcement The inspectors noted that 10 CFR 20.1501(2)(ii) requires each licensee to make or cause to be made, surveys that are reasonable under the circumstances to evaluate concentrations and quantities of radioactive material in effluents. TS 6.8.1 requires written procedures to be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 2, February 1978, which includes procedures for control of radioactivity released to the environment and process radiation monitoring systems. Licensee RCP-703, Calibration and Quality Control Set-up of the Genie Spectroscopy System, Rev. 7, specified that calibration source geometries be as close as practicable to actual sample geometries to establish acceptable measurement accuracy. The finding is entered into the licensees corrective action program as NCR 65704. The failure to maintain calibration source geometries as close as practicable to actual sample geometries resulting in energy efficiency differences exceeding five percent for periods of time preceding July 8, 2002, is identified as a violation of TS 6.8.1. This violation is being treated as a non-cited

violation, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy, and is identified as NCV 50-400/02-04-02, Failure to properly implement calibration procedures used to ensure accurate radionuclide analyses of airborne effluent particulate samples in accordance with ODCM requirements.

.2 Problem Identification and Resolution a. Inspection Scope Licensee NCR documents associated with effluent processing and monitoring activities were reviewed. Five NCRs documented in the attachment to this report were reviewed and evaluated in detail. The inspectors assessed the licensees ability to identify, characterize, prioritize, and resolve the identified issues.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

2PS3 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP)

.1 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) Implementation a. Inspection Scope The licensees 2001 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report was reviewed and discussed with licensee representatives. The inspectors assessed data analyses, surveillance results, and land-use census assessment. Report details were assessed for required sample types, sampling locations, and monitoring frequencies.

During the week of June 17, 2002, REMP program activities conducted by Harris Energy and Environmental Center (HEEC) laboratory were reviewed and evaluated. The inspectors reviewed and evaluated procedural guidance and its implementation; instrument calibration and performance checks for gamma spectroscopy, liquid scintillation counting, and gross beta analysis instrumentation; and assessed knowledge and proficiency of responsible staff. In addition, laboratory analysis QC activities were reviewed and evaluated including inter-laboratory sample comparison results; analytical measurement instrumentation performance checks and background determinations; analysis sensitivities and LLD capabilities for gamma spectroscopy analyses and gross beta analyses; and review of flow calibrations for pumps used in REMP airborne sampling systems. The inspectors also reviewed and discussed 19 NCRs documented between June 1, 2001, and June 17, 2002, for inoperable airborne monitoring equipment to determine if the issues were appropriately reviewed and resolved.

On July 9, 2002, the inspectors toured and evaluated selected sampling stations for location and material condition of REMP equipment. Collection of air particulate filters and charcoal cartridges, and flow rate determinations were observed at air sampling stations 4, 26, and 47. The placement and condition of TLDs were evaluated at monitoring locations 3, 4, 16, 49, and 56. Using global positioning system equipment, the inspectors independently evaluated selected TLD locations. Proficiency and

knowledge of technicians collecting the samples and the adequacy of collection techniques were assessed.

Program guidance, procedural implementation, and environmental monitoring results were reviewed against TS; 10 CFR Parts 20 and Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 design criteria requirements; FSAR details; ODCM guidance; and applicable procedures listed in § 2PS3 of the Attachment to this report. Specific laboratory QC activities were evaluated against RG 1.21, Measuring, Evaluating and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials In Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water Cooled Nuclear Power Plant, June 1974; and RG 4.15, Quality Assurance for Radiological Monitoring Programs (Normal Operation) - Effluent Streams and the Environment, December 1977.

b. Findings Introduction Green. An NCV of TS 6.8.1 was identified for inadequate implementation of REMP continuous airborne monitoring activities as required by the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), Table 3.12-1.

Description During review of NCRs documented by the HEEC staff between June 1, 2001, and June 17, 2002, the inspectors noted more than 19 occurrences of inoperable pumps associated with the REMP airborne sampling equipment at six locations specified by the ODCM. Causes of the malfunctions indicated blown fuses and mechanical degradation of pumps. Subsequently, for the six operating REMP airborne sampling stations, the inspectors requested the licensee to determine operating flow rates and vendor specified charcoal cartridge collection efficiencies, and to calculate the availability of airborne monitoring station equipment since January 1, 2000. For the collected data, the inspectors reviewed and evaluated pump calibrations, operational procedure guidance, and flow rate data; assessed pump and charcoal filter operating characteristics relative to vendor specifications and operating recommendations; and determined the annual air sampling station availability based on individual and all airborne sampling stations from January 1, 2000 through June 30, 2002. The inspectors determined that for the period reviewed, the pumps were calibrated properly; however, the licensee incorrectly assumed 100 percent charcoal cartridge iodine collection efficiency for pump flow rates which varied between 1.70 and 3.07 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM). Vendor specifications indicated charcoal cartridge iodine collection efficiencies between 92 and 97 percent for the observed flow rates.

The inspectors also noted a significant decrease in REMP airborne monitoring station availability for the period reviewed. Calculated annual availability for all REMP airborne monitoring stations collectively ranged from 100 percent in CY 2000 to 96 percent between January 1, 2002, through June 30, 2002. The inspectors noted that based on six monitoring stations, the 96 percent availability represented approximately 43 days out of 1045 operational days that continuous airborne sampling stations were out of service during the first half of CY 2002. For analyses based on each individual REMP

airborne monitoring station, the calculated minimum availability was approximately 91 percent for equipment at location Number (No.) 1, i.e., inoperable for approximately 10 of 119 days between July 16, 2001, through November 12, 2001. The minimal availability value was identified for a shorter evaluation period associated with a non-routine pump change-out at location No. 4, i.e., 78 percent availability indicating the equipment to be out of service for approximately 8 out of 35 days between December 10, 2001, and January 14, 2002. The inspectors noted that the identified issues indicated that the REMP airborne sampling stations exceeded expected out-of-service conditions based on routine maintenance requirements and activities.

Analysis The inspectors noted that improper assumption of 100 percent iodine collection efficiencies and reduced availability of the REMP airborne samplers affected programs and equipment used to corroborate effluent releases required to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian reactor operations. This finding was evaluated using the Public Radiation SDP and determined to be of very low safety significance because it involved the failure to meet a regulatory requirement but did not significantly affect assessment of airborne effluent releases. Specifically, between January 1, 2001, and June 30, 2002, licensees onsite effluent monitoring systems were operable, and operating histories and effluent release data did not identify any actual operating events which required corroborating environmental monitoring data .

Enforcement TS 6.8.1 requires written procedures to be established, implemented, and maintained covering the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Implementation. The licensees ODCM Table 3.12-1 requires continuous airborne particulate and iodine sampling to be conducted at specified locations in the environs outside the plant. Contrary to the above, from January 1, 2002, through June 30, 2002, the licensee failed to properly implement their REMP continuous airborne sampling activities in that iodine collection efficiencies were incorrectly assumed to be 100 percent. Further, the operational availability of selected continuous airborne sampling equipment was reduced between January 1, 2001, and June 30, 2002. This finding is entered into the licensees corrective action program as NCR 63233. These issues are identified as a violation of TS 6.8.1. This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy, and is identified as NCV 50-400/02-04-03, Failure to properly implement the REMP airborne monitoring program in accordance with the ODCM requirements.

.2 Meteorological Monitoring Program a. Inspection Scope Licensee program activities to assure accuracy and availability of meteorological data were evaluated. The inspectors reviewed and evaluated data associated with Replacement of the Meteorological Tower equipment documented in Work Order Package, 00089376 01, completed August 9, 2001. On July 9-11, the inspectors toured

meteorological facilities and assessed equipment material condition, observed conduct of a quarterly general inspection performance test, and reviewed instrument operability and current meteorological data accuracy within the Control Room. In addition, the inspectors compared the most recent meteorological monitoring data against licensee assumptions used for effluent releases and assessments.

The meteorological program implementation and activities were reviewed against 10 CFR Part 20, TS, FSAR §2.3.3, ODCM, and applicable procedures documented in the attachment to this report.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.3 Unrestricted Release of Materials from the Radiologically Controlled Area (RCA)

a. Inspection Scope Radiation protection program activities associated with the unconditional release of materials from the RCA were reviewed and evaluated. During the week of July 8, 2002, the inspectors directly observed surveys of potentially contaminated materials released from the RCA using the Small Article Monitor (SAM)-9 equipment. In addition, SAM-9 equipment sensitivity was assessed using a low level radioactive source, i.e. activity approximately 5000 disintegrations per minute. To evaluate the appropriateness and accuracy of release survey instrumentation, radionuclides identified within recent waste stream analyses were compared against current calibration and performance check source radionuclide types. Current calibration and performance check data were reviewed and discussed. In addition, licensee guidance to evaluate survey requirements for hard-to-detect radionuclides were reviewed and discussed.

The licensee practices and implementation of monitoring for unconditional release of materials from the RCA were evaluated against 10 CFR Part 20, TS, FSAR §12, and applicable procedures. The applicable licensee guidance, calibration records, and performance data are documented in the attachment to this report.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.4 Problem Identification and Resolution a. Inspection Scope Licensee NCRs associated with REMP operations and with program activities associated with unrestricted release of materials from the RCA were reviewed and evaluated. Specific NCRs reviewed and evaluated in detail are identified in the attachment to this report. The inspectors assessed the licensees ability to identify, characterize, prioritize, and resolve the identified issues.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

3. SAFEGUARDS Cornerstone: Physical Protection 3PP3 Response to Contingency Events The Office of Homeland Security (OHS) developed a Homeland Security Advisory System (HSAS) to disseminate information regarding the risk of terrorist attacks. The HSAS implements five color-coded threat conditions with a description of corresponding actions at each level. NRC Regulatory Information Summary (RIS) 2002-12a, dated August 19, 2002, "NRC Threat Advisory and Protective Measures System," discusses the HSAS and provides additional information on protective measures to licensees.

a. Inspection Scope On September 10, 2002, the NRC issued a Safeguards Advisory to reactor licensees to implement the protective measures described in RIS 2002-12a in response to the Federal government declaration of threat level "orange." Subsequently, on September 24, 2002, the OHS downgraded the national security threat condition to yellow and a corresponding reduction in the risk of a terrorist threat.

The inspectors interviewed licensee personnel and security staff, observed the conduct of security operations, and assessed licensee implementation of the threat level orange protective measures. Inspection results were communicated to the region and headquarters security staff for further evaluation.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

For the review period, the inspectors reviewed data reported to the NRC, and subsequently sampled and evaluated applicable corrective action program records and selected Health Physics Program records. The reviewed records included selected health physics shift logs, contamination occurrence logs and assessments, internal exposure evaluations, and personnel exposure investigation reports. In addition, the NCRs listed in the attachment to this report were reviewed and evaluated.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.3 Public Radiation Safety Performance Indicator Verification a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed and discussed the Radiological Control Effluent Release Occurrence PI indicator results for the Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone from October 01, 2001, through June 30, 2002, against the requirements of NEI Guideline 99-02, Revision 2. For the review period, the inspectors reviewed data reported to the

NRC and evaluated selected radiological liquid and gaseous liquid and gaseous effluent release data, out-of-service process radiation monitor and compensatory sampling data, abnormal release results, and NCRs documented in the Attachment to this report.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems a. Inspection Scope The inspectors performed an in-depth review of AR 44974 which described the inadequate acceptance testing for modification 97-0547, which replaced the essential services chilled water non-essential header isolation valve actuators. The licensee classified this issue as a Significant Adverse Condition. This issue affected the Mitigation Systems cornerstone.

During this review, the inspectors determined whether:

  • identification of the problem was complete and accurate;
  • the problem was identified in a timely manner;
  • the licensee properly classified and prioritized resolution;
  • the licensee evaluated and dispositioned operability and reportability issues;
  • the licensee considered extent of condition, generic implications, common causes, and previous occurrences; and
  • corrective actions were completed in a timely manner.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

4OA3 Event Follow-up a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed the licensees actions associated with the manual reactor trip that occurred on July 13. The manual trip was required because of a component failure in the digital electro-hydraulic control system for the main turbine. The inspectors observed plant parameters for mitigating systems and fission product barriers, evaluated performance of systems and operators, and confirmed proper classification and reporting of the event.

The inspectors reviewed the licensees actions associated with an automatic reactor trip that occurred on August 15. The trip was caused by a grid disturbance that lowered voltage by 40% for greater than 500 milliseconds, which caused the reactor to trip on reactor coolant pump bus under-voltage. The inspectors observed plant parameters for mitigating systems and fission product barriers, evaluated performance of systems and operators, and confirmed proper classification and reporting of the event.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

4OA5 Other Activities The Inspectors reviewed the field notes for the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) evaluation completed in March 2002.

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit Exit Meeting Summary The inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. J. Scarola, Site Vice President, and other members of licensee management at the conclusion of the inspection on September 30.

The inspectors asked the licensee whether any of the material examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary. No proprietary information was identified.

4OA7 Licensee Identified Violations The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by the licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as a non-cited violation (NCV).

10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) requires, in part, that monitoring as specified in (a)(1) is not required where it has been demonstrated that the performance or condition of a Structure, System or Component (SSC) is being effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance, such that the SSC remains capable of performing its intended function. As described in the licensees AR 60144, functional failures in the RHR system and the pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valves (PORVs) were not identified and thus not considered in the demonstration for these SSCs. Monitoring and goal setting required as a result of these functional failures was not being accomplished. Since this licensee identified violation deals with maintenance rule documentation and performance monitoring, it is of very low safety significance, and is being treated as a non-cited violation.
