Introduction:
The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of TS 3.7.5, Auxiliary Feedwater System, for the failure to declare the Unit 1 motor driven auxiliary feedwater pumps (MDAFW) pumps inoperable and comply with the associated action statements when a necessary support system was not available to perform its safety function.
Description:
On April 11, 2019, with Unit 1 at 100 percent power, the sump pump for the 1B MDAFW pump failed to start in manual. The licensee initiated Work Request (WR) 20139666 to investigate and repair the sump pump. On April 24, 2019, inspectors noted that the 1B MDAFW sump pump remained out of service and the associated 1B MDAFW pump was not declared inoperable. Based on a review of the UFSAR and LER 2008-001, the inspectors questioned whether the unavailability of the sump pump could affect the operability of the MDAFW pumps. Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Section 11.2.2.2.5.7 states, each auxiliary feedwater pump (AFW) is mounted in a separate pit to meet NPSH requirements, so each pit has a sump and safety related sump pump of corresponding channel to prevent flooding of the AFW pumps, assuming a 50 gpm leak. Additionally, Licensee Event Report (LER) 2008-001 documented that the AFW systems for both units were declared inoperable after it was discovered that flow restrictor cover plates for the interior doghouse drains were not installed and a feedwater line break in that area, coincident with a loss of off-site power, could flood the AFW pump area. The 2008 LER said that flow restrictors were installed in the drains to ensure the safety related AFW sump pumps could protect the AFW system after a feedwater pipe break in the doghouses. The inspectors discussed this information with the licensee, and the licensee stated that the MDAFW sump pumps were not required for operability per the design basis document (DBD). On April 30, 2019, the licensee entered this issue in the corrective action program to address the discrepancy between the UFSAR and DBD descriptions of the MDAFW sump pumps. The 1B MDAFW sump pump was repaired and returned to service on May 1, 2019.
On May 30, 2019, the licensee completed an evaluation of the issue and confirmed that the MDAFW sump pumps are required to be functional to support operability of their associated MDAFW pumps. The inspectors concluded that there was sufficient information in the UFSAR and LER 2008-001 to recognize the safety function of the MDAFW sump pumps and their impact on the operability of the MDAFW pumps. License Event Report 2019-002-00 was submitted on June 10, 2019, and documented that there were several instances when Unit 1 MDAFW pumps should have been declared inoperable for the corresponding times that the associated sump pumps were nonfunctional.
Corrective Actions: The 1B MDAFW sump pumps were repaired and returned to service on May 1, 2019.
Corrective Action References: CR 2270638, CR 2271394 and CR 2275149
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the failure to declare the MDAFW pumps inoperable when a necessary support system was not available to perform its related support function was a performance deficiency and violation of TS 3.7.5.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the Unit 1 MDAFW pumps were inoperable at different times when their associated MDAFW sump pumps were not capable of performing their safety related function to prevent flooding of the MDAFW pumps. The 1B MDAFW pump was inoperable for a period longer than the allowed 72-hour completion time from April 11-May 1, 2019. There were two instances when two trains of AFW were inoperable longer than the allowed 6 hour6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> completion time of TS Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.7.5 Condition C. On April 11, 2019, both 1A and 1B MDAFW sumps pumps were out of service (OOS) simultaneously. The 1A MDAFW sump was returned to service April 12, 2019. On April 17th, the 1B MDAFW sump pump was OOS at the same time as the 1A MDAFW was OOS. The 1A MDAFW pump was returned to service on April 18th, 2019. The 1A and 1B MDAFW sumps were also OOS at the same time on January 19, 2019 for a few hours.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors determined that the issue required a detailed risk evaluation because the finding represents an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. A detailed risk evaluation was performed by a regional senior reactor analyst in accordance with IMC 0609 Appendix A using the SAPHIRE Version 8.2.0 and Catawba SPAR model Version 8.57. The major analysis assumptions included: auxiliary feedwater flooding would be associated with a loss of main feedwater, that the non-safety-related floor drain sump pumps would not be available, and no credit for recovery of the auxiliary feedwater sump pumps. The dominant sequence involved a loss of main feedwater event that involved flooding of the auxiliary feedwater pump area(s) with a loss of the motor-driven auxiliary feedwater system due to the performance deficiency and a failure to establish feed bleed conditions for heat removal. The risk was mitigated by the relatively short exposure periods of the condition. The analysis determined that the performance deficiency resulted in an increase in core damage frequency of <1 E-6/year, a GREEN finding of very low safety significance.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.14 - Conservative Bias: Individuals use decision making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. The inspectors determined this performance deficiency had a cross-cutting aspect in the conservative bias component of the human performance area, because the licensee did not use conservative assumptions to identify the required support function of the MDAFW sump pumps and their impact on the operability of the MDAFW pumps.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 3.7.5, Auxiliary Feedwater System, requires in part three AFW trains to be OPERABLE in MODES 1, 2, and 3. With one of the required AFW trains (pump or flow path) inoperable in MODES 1, 2, or 3 for reasons other than Condition A, action must be taken to restore OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Condition C states that when two AFW trains are inoperable in MODES 1, 2, or 3, the unit must be in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. Contrary to the above, on January 19, April 11, and April 19, 2019, the 1A and 1B MDAFW pumps were rendered inoperable at different times because its associated sump pumps were nonfunctional and operators did not comply with the applicable technical specification action statements.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Procedure Adherence 71111.15
Introduction:
The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of TS 5.4.1, Procedures, for Units 1 and 2 when the licensee failed to comply with Selected Licensee Commitment (SLC) 16.6-5, Residual Heat Removal/ Containment Spray Sump Pump (ND/NS) Interlock. Specifically, on February 4, 2019, the licensee failed to enter Condition A when the ND/NS sump pump interlock was not functional and take the required action to implement alternate means of fulfilling the interlock function.
Description:
On February 4, 2019, with both Units at 100 percent power, the licensee removed power from the four ND/NS sump pump motor breakers to prevent operation during cleaning of the ND/NS sump area. With power removed from the sump pump motors, the corresponding level switches and alarms were nonfunctional. Selected Licensee Commitment 16.6-5 requires that the ND/NS sump pump interlock be functional in MODES 1-
4. If the commitment is not met, then the required action is to immediately implement an
alternate means of satisfying the interlock function. The function of the ND/NS interlock is to alert the control room operator of a potential emergency core cooling system (ECCS) leak in the ND/NS pump area. During a review of the maintenance history of the ND/NS sump pumps, inspectors identified that operators failed to comply with SLC 16.6-5 during cleaning of the sumps on February 4, 2019. As a result, operators were unable to monitor for ECCS leakage in ND/NS area from the level switches in the control room. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program and completed a cause evaluation for the issue. The licensee concluded that the SLC should have been entered and compensatory actions were required to monitor the ND/NS ump area for leakage during the maintenance activity.
Corrective Actions: The licensee took corrective actions to restore the power to the ND/NS sump pumps following the sump cleaning and implemented standing instructions to aid in functionality determinations.
Corrective Action References: CR 2275467, CR 2283390
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the failure to comply with SLC 16.6-5, Residual Heat Removal/Containment Spray Sump Pump Interlock was a performance deficiency and a violation of TS 5.4.1.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Configuration Control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Because of the licensees failure to comply with SLC 16.6-5, operators were unable to monitor the ND/NS pump area for ECCS leakage from the control room.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-tech spec trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensees maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.8 - Procedure Adherence: Individuals follow processes, procedures, and work instructions. The inspectors identified a cross-cutting aspect of procedures in the area of human performance because the operators failed to comply with the SLC when the ND/NS sump pumps were removed from service.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, requires that the licensee implement the commitments contained in UFSAR Chapter 16. The Selected Licensee Commitment (SLC) Manual is designated as Chapter 16 of the UFSAR. Selected Licensee Commitment 16.6-5 requires that the ND/NS sump pump interlock be functional in Modes 1-4 and if the commitment is not met, then the required action is to immediately implement an alternate means of satisfying the interlock function. Contrary to the above, on February 4, 2019, the licensee failed to comply with SLC 16.6-5 during maintenance of the ND/NS sump. As a result, operators were unable to monitor the ND/NS pump area for ECCS leakage from the control room while the ND/NS interlock was nonfunctional.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Conservative Bias 71111.15
Introduction:
The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated Severity Level IV NCV of TS 3.7.7 Component Cooling Water System (KC), for a failure to take TS actions for two inoperable trains of KC and of 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(A, B, and D) for the failure to notify the NRC within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of an event or condition that could have prevented fulfillment of a safety function.
Description:
On July 5, 2019, the licensee made an unplanned entry into TS 3.7.7 Component Cooling Water System (KC), Condition A, when the 2A1 KC pump discharge check valve 2KC-5 failed to close when the 2A1 KC pump was secured. Operations declared the 2A train of KC inoperable. On July 6, 2019, during corrective maintenance on 2KC-5, operations used a procedure that defeated the interlocks that cause the non-essential reactor building supply and return header valves for both trains of KC to close on an engineered safeguards actuation signal (ESFAS). While Unit 2 was in this alignment (approximately 14 hours1.62037e-4 days <br />0.00389 hours <br />2.314815e-5 weeks <br />5.327e-6 months <br /> and eleven minutes), the inspectors questioned whether the licensee could satisfy TS Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.7.7.2, which requires each automatic valve in the flow path servicing safety-related equipment to be tested to ensure the equipment actuates to its correct position on an actual or simulated signal. Updated Final Safety Analysis Report Section 9.2.2.3.5 states that electric motor operated valves are provided on all headers to non-essential equipment to isolate and separate the two component cooling trains and the valves automatically close on an engineered safeguards actuation signal. Additionally, SR 3.0.1 states that failure to meet a surveillance, whether such failure is experienced during performance of the surveillance or between performances, shall be failure to meet the LCO. The inspectors concluded that the licensee should have declared the B train of KC inoperable and complied with the TS 3.7.7 Required Action A when TS SR 3.7.7.2 could not be performed with the interlocks defeated on July 6, 2019.
Corrective Actions: The licensee returned the 2A train to operable on July 6, 2019. The licensee subsequently submitted License Event Report 2019-003 on September 4, 2019. On September 19, 2019, the licensee made a non-emergency event report for an event or condition that could have prevented fulfillment of a safety function.
Corrective Action References: CR 2280660
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to take TS actions for both trains of the component cooling water system being inoperable as required by TS 3.7.7 and subsequently notify the NRC within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> as required by 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v)(A, B, and D) was a performance deficiency.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensees failure to recognize that both trains of component cooling water were inoperable and perform actions required by TS 3.7.7 extended the amount of time that they operated in Mode 1 with an inoperable safety related system.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors determined that the issue required a detailed risk evaluation because the finding represents an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. A detailed risk evaluation was performed by a regional senior reactor analyst using SAPHIRE Version 8.2.0 and NRC SPAR model Version 8.57. The analysis assumed a complete loss of CCW heat exchanger functionality given an engineered safeguards actuation signal coincident with low refueling water storage tank level. The dominant sequence involved random unavailability of a CCW train with a failure to manually close the crosstie valves following a stuck-open pressurizer relief valve initiating event. The risk was mitigated by the short 14-hour exposure period of the condition. The analysis determined that the performance deficiency resulted in an increase in core damage frequency of <1E-6/year, a GREEN finding of very low safety significance.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.14 - Conservative Bias: Individuals use decision making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. The inspectors determined this performance deficiency had a cross-cutting aspect in the conservative bias component of the human performance area, because the licensee did not use conservative assumptions to determine operability of the B train of component cooling water when inspectors questioned whether the licensee could perform the TS surveillance with the ESFAS signals defeated.
Enforcement:
The ROPs significance determination process does not specifically consider the regulatory process impact in its assessment of licensee performance. Therefore, it is necessary to address this violation which impedes the NRCs ability to regulate using traditional enforcement to adequately deter non-compliance.
Severity: Based on the examples provided in Section 6.9 of the Enforcement Policy, dated May 28, 2019 Inaccurate and Incomplete Information of Failure to Make a Required Report, the performance deficiency was determined to be a SL IV violation. Specifically, Example d.9 states that a SL IV violation involves a failure to make a report the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72.
Violation: Technical Specification 3.7.7 governs the component cooling water system (KC). Limiting Condition for Operation 3.7.7 requires two KC trains to be operable in Modes 1, 2, 3, and 4. Limiting Condition for Operation 3.7.7 Required Action A states with one train inoperable, restore KC train to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Limiting Condition for Operation 3.7.7 Required Action B states if the Required Action and associated Completion Time of Condition A is not met, the plant must be in Mode 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and Mode 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. Title 10 CFR 50.72 states that the licensee shall notify the NRC as soon as practical and in all cases within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> of the occurrence of any event or condition that at the time of discovery could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function
Contrary to the above, on July 6, 2019 from 0156 until 1545 (14 hours1.62037e-4 days <br />0.00389 hours <br />2.314815e-5 weeks <br />5.327e-6 months <br /> and eleven minutes),both trains of KC were inoperable, and the licensee failed to complete the required TS actions. Contrary to the above, from July 6, 2019 until September 19, 2019, the licensee failed to notify the NRC within eight hours of an event that could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function when both trains of KC were inoperable.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Unresolved Item (Closed)
Unresolved Item (URI) MSPI Data associated with failure of the 1A emergency diesel generator (EDG) not reported URI 05000413/2019002-03 71151
Description:
This item was opened to review the mitigating system performance indicator (MSPI) data for Unit 1 Emergency AC system reported in the 2nd quarter for the failure of the 1A EDG on March 21, 2019. The MSPI unavailability was associated with an EDG heat exchanger cooling water valve 1RN-P09 found broken and in the closed position during a surveillance test. Catawba engineering reported approximately 17 hours1.967593e-4 days <br />0.00472 hours <br />2.810847e-5 weeks <br />6.4685e-6 months <br /> of unavailability instead of the 268 hours0.0031 days <br />0.0744 hours <br />4.431217e-4 weeks <br />1.01974e-4 months <br /> that the EDG was inoperable. The inspectors had internal discussions with members of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation staff to evaluate the licensees justification for not reporting the total number of unavailability hours associated with the EDG failure.
Closure Basis: The inspectors determined that the hours reported in the 2nd quarter for the failure of the 1A EDG were appropriate and did not identify a performance deficiency. This URI is closed.
