The flow tests noted above are being conducted every two weeks on the A SSW system and every week on the B SSW system. No further action is require (Closed) ' Violation 416/86-02-01. The licensee conducted a programmatic review of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). As a result of that review a summary report of those safety evaluations conducted due to changes made to the initial submittal of the GGNS UFSAR was submitted on February 18, 1987 (AECM-87/0019). The licensee established an overall GGNS Nuclear Production Department requirement for conducting safety evaluations on UFSAR changes. Nuclear Production Department Procedure (NPDP) 5.1, Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Change Request Preparation and Change Notice Review, was issued to control future UFSAR changes. In addition, the licensee accomplished the following tasks:

Screening of all initial UFSAR change notices for need of 10 CFR 50.59 type safety evaluation Evaluation of resulting change notices for conducting safety evalua-tions or addressing the potential commitment deletions for resolu-tio Review of all original questions and responses for retention of FSAR commitment The QA group' conducted a very thorough review of the licensee's change notice review program and found that overall the program was accurat The inspector reviewed selected UFSAR change notice safety evaluations submitted in the February 18, 1987 report noted above and found no discre-pancie The specific examples noted in this violation have been correcte (Closed) Violation 416/86-11-04. The inspectors reviewed the Electrical Superintendent's memorandum to all electrical personnel ugarding their responsibilities when_ lifting a lead or pulling a fuse and verified that the fuse cross reference list was revised to clarify fuse numbers versus system fuse numbers and system valve number The licensed operator training program was verified to include instructions on how to read drawings and fuse location aids to properly determine the correct fus Licensed Operator Training (LOT) lesson plan OP-LO-FUN-PR-LP-001-01, Print Reading, adequately addressed the fuse location issu (Closed) Violation 416/85-22-03. The licensee conducted a review of open industry documents and NRC documents currently under evaluation by the Operational Analysis Section (0AS) of Nuclear Plant Engineering (NPE) to determine if additional safety significant issues existed and plant staff had not been notified. There were none. A training session on document

.

evaluations was conducted for 0AS personnel on September 5,1985. The inspectors reviewed the attendance list. NPE Administrative Procedure 01-701, Onsite and Offsite Document Review was revised on September 5, 1985 to provide additional instructions on notifications required when a safety significant problem is identified, and the priorities which must be established. No further action is require . Operational Safety Verification (71707)

The inspectors kept themselves informed on a daily basis of the overall plant status and any significant safety matters related to plant opera-tion Daily discussions were held with plant management and various members of the plant operating staf The inspectors made frequent visits to the control room such that it was visited at least daily when an inspector was on sit Observations included instrument readings, setpoints and recordings, status of opera-ting systems, tags and clearances on equipment controls and switches, annunciator alarms, adherence to limiting conditions for operation, temporary alterations in effect, daily journals and data sheet entries, control room manning, and access control This inspection activity included numerous informal discussions with operators and their super-visor Weekly, when the inspectors were onsite, selected Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) systems were confirmed operabl The confirmation is made by verifying the following: Accessible valve flow path alignment, power supply breaker and fuse status, major component leakage, lubrication, cooling and general condition, and instrumentatio General plant tours were conducted on at least a biweekly basis. Portions of the control building, turbine building, auxiliary building and outside areas were visited. Observations included safety related tagout verifica-tions, shift turnover, sampling program, housekeeping and general plant conditions, fire protection equipment, control of activities in progress, radiation protection controls, physical security, problem identification systems, and containment isolation. At least monthly, the licensee'e onsite emergency response facilities were toured to determine faciliwy readines The following comments were noted:

While attending a GGNS Radiation Worker Training course the inspectors learned that health physics personnel were instructing employees that when entering an area that requires the use of Protective Clothing (PC) and a Security Officer is not posted to collect key cards, the key card should be clipped to the outermost garment except when the Health Physics techni-cian at the work station determines that radiological conditions warrant wearing the key card in the chest pocket of the outer PCs. This would

allow personnel to be in areas requiring PCs without a key card being i visibl Af ter discussing the issue with NRC Region II Security, the l inspector informed the licensee that the above instructions did not comply l with their Security Pla A memorandum dated April 23, 1987 from the Security Superintendent to all GGNS employees clarified that the key card !

must be visible and displayed on the outermost garment at all times while inside radiologically controlled areas except when a security officer is posted to collect and control key card No violations or deviations were identifie . Maintenance Observation (62703)

During the report period, the inspectors observed portions of the mainten-ance activities listed below. The observations included a review of the work documents for adequacy, adherence to procedure, proper tagouts, adherence to technical specifications, radiological controls, observation of all or part of the actual work and/or retesting in progress, specified retest requirements, and adherence to the appropriate quality control MWO ME3559, 3560 and 356 General Maintenance Instruction 07-S-14-302, Revision 1, Removal of Water from Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Storage Tan MWO M7143 Replacement of Secondary Containment Access Door 1A401 (Auxiliary Building to Turbine Building, 166 ft. elevation).

MWO M7214 Rework Residual Heat Removal C Jockey Pum Following the removal and rework of the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) C jockey pump and while the licensee was in the process of reinstalling the jockey pump, the inspectors reviewed the work instructions attached to Maintenance Work Order (MWO) M72142 and noted the following discrepancies:

Step 20 of the Work Instruction and Inspection Record (WI&IR), which stated to replace mechanical seals and rework the deflector shield, had been accomplished but was not signed off as complete Step 30 of the WI&IR stated to reassemble the jockey pump. This work had been accomplished but was not signed off as complete Step 40 of the WI&IR stated to align the pump using General Mainten-ance Instruction 07-S-14-308, Reverse Indicator Alignment for Rotating Equipmen This step requires a QA witness but the WI&IR was not marked to indicate a QA witness poin Data Sheet II and

' Inspection Records, paragraph 6.4.2 states that following the philosophy that a qualified craftsman builds quality into the product, the Discipline Maintenance Supervisors are responsible for the first line of inspection, and are required to sign / initial and date each line item signifying the completion and acceptance of the item. These discrepancies, although minor, indicate closer attention to detail is needed when performing maintenance activitie No violations or deviations were identifie . Surveillance Observation (61726)

The inspectors observed the performance of portions of the surveillances listed below. The observation included a review of the procedure for technical adequacy, conformance to technical specifications, verification of test instrument calibration, observation of all or part of the actual surveillances, removal from service and return to service of the system or components affected, and review of the data for acceptability based upon the acceptance criteria, ,

06-ME-1M61-V-0001, Revision 29, TCN 26, Local Leak Rate Test Containment Isolation Valves per MWO ME305 IC-1C51-0-0001, Revision 22, APRM Neutron Fitx Upscale (Startup) and Recirculation Flow Upscale Calibration (Channel A).

Upon questioning the maintenance supervisor, The inspectors found the procedure to be ambiguous enough to permit an interpretation that allows deviation from the required test method. For example, step 5.4.6 requires the air flow test to be performed using the test method described in Appendix A, which in turn implements Figure A-1 for the testing configuration. At the same time, step 5.4.6.a requires pressurization of the air lock using full instrument air pressure, which is not possible when using the test rig per figure A-1. Thus the mechanics disconnected a tubing joint in the test rig and connected instrument air directly to the airlock. The test pressure gauge had to be isolated, however, while pressurizing the air

.

lock because instrument air pressure was higher than tne gauge range. The mechanics used the installed airlock pressure gauge as a backup. This ambiguity and others were discussed with the licensee's representatives and a commitment was made to amend the procedure to clearly state how the test is to be conducted prior to the next contal;..ient airlock tes No violations or deviations were identifie . Engineered Safety Features System Walkdown (717:0)

A complete walkdown was conducted on the accessible portions of the Division 3 Standby Service Water (SSW) System, and the Divisions 1 and 2 SSW Basin and Pump Room complex. The walkdown consisted of an inspection and verification, where possible, of the required system valve alignment, including valve power available and valve locking where required, instru-mentation valved in and functioning; electrical and instrumentation cabinets free from debris, loose materials, jumpers and evidence of rodents, and system free from other degrading condition The following minct deficiencies were noted:

Piping and Instrument Diagram (P & ID) M-0030A, Legend, indicates that valves on P & ids which are normally closed are annotated with a

"C", and those which are normally open are not annotated. On P & ID M-1061B, Revision 25, SSW System Unit 1, valves FX070, FX069, FXO73, FX074, FX075, FX061, FX062, and FX058 are not annotated, thus indicating a normally open position, when according to the System Operating Instruction, SOI 04-1-01-P41-1, Revision 29, SSW System, Attachment I, these valves are required to be closed. Thus the P &

ID should have a "C" annotation for the valves. Also, the P & ID shows manual valve F013 "F0" (fails open) when the S0I requires "LO" (locked open).

The 2 1/2 inch HBC-158 section of HPCS pump roomcooler return piping, in the HPCS pump room before it exits through the wall, has a plugged penetration (similar to a reducing tee) which does not appear on P &

ID M-1061 According to the local valve position indicator on SSW A Recir-culation Isolation Valve F002A, the valve is locked shut. The valve lineup, Attachment I to S0I 04-1-01-P41-1, requires the valve to be locked in a 48 percent open position. The Control Room was notified, and they stated that there is a Maintenance Work Order 66994 that was issued on October 11, 1986 to repair the position indicator, and surveillance test results indicate the valve is in the proper throttled positio The local position indicators on valves F015A, F016A, F007B, F006A, and F0068 cannot be read, i .e. ,the plastic cover is damaged, the indicator plate was removed, et ._,

8 Operating Reactor Events (93702)

The inspectors reviewed activities associated with the below listed reactor event The review included determination of cause, safety significance, performance of personnel and systems, and corrective actio The inspectors examined instrument recordings, computer printouts, opera-tions journal entries, scram reports and had discussions with operations, maintenance and engineering support personnel as appropriat On May 1, 1987 at 10: 40 p.m. , Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC)

turbine steam supply inboard isolation valve E51F063 inadvertently isolated. An Instrumentation and Controls (I & C) technician was in the process of filling, venting and returning to service the Residual Heat Removal (RHR)/RCIC steam line flow traasmitter per Maintenance Work Order (MWO) IN5744. An Impact Statement to General Maintenance Instruction 07-5-13-48, Filling, Venting and Equalizing Sensing Lines, cautions the technician to ensure that the trip unit is in an untripped condition prior to placing the trip unit back in service, or an RCIC isolation will occu The technician's digital voltmeter was incorrectly selected to read current instead of voltage, and when plugged into the test jacks on the trip unit caused a trip and resulting isolation. The technician recognized the problem, removed the test equipment and RCIC was returned to operable status. Incident Report 87-5-2 was written to document this even On May 7,1987 the licensee notified the NRC of a potential deficiency in the environmental qualification of wiring used in the containment and drywell hydrogen analyzers. The licensee became aware that the wire in question (14 AWG (UL) AWM, Rockbestos, CSA, SFW-2, 200 C) was not purchased as environmentally qualified panel wiring but was subsequently installed in all four post-LOCA hydrogen analyzer panels. The ifcensee initiated Material Non-Conformance Report (MNCR) 00166-87 to document the finding. A telecon was held on May 7, 1987 with the Licensee, NRR, Region II and the Resident Inspectors to discuss the licensee's planned action Based on engineering evaluations made up to that time, the licensee explained why they felt they could justify continued operation and committed to have the written Justification for Continued Operation (JCO)

available by that evenin The residents reviewed the JC0 with Nuclear Plant Engineering representatives and had no comments. The actions taken by the licensee appear to meet the guidance of Generic Letter 86-15 for when a licensee discovers a potential deficiency in the environmental qualification of equipment. The final resolution of the qualification of the subject wiring will be tracked under Inspector Followup Item 416/87-12-0 On May 11, 1987 the licensee notified the residents of a potential problem with the reactor vessel water level instruments. A channel check had shown a 4 inch level differential between the reactor vessel water level instruments which was the Itcensee's limit thus requiring initiating an

investigation. The licensee's investigation indicated that the level

~

instruments with detectors connected to the A condensing pot were slowly trending in the higher level direction. After analyzing the condition the licensee decided that the A reference leg should be filled. This could purtebate all tne reactor level detectors connected to the A condensing pot, therefore the licensee considered it prudent to bypass all of the trips associated with those instruments. The Technical Specification (TS)

did not facilitate this for the ATWS Recirculating Pump Trips. On May 13, 1987 the licensee contacted NRR and Region II for possible discretionary enforcement. TS 3.3.4.1, ATWS Recirculation Pump Trip System Instrumenta-tion, has a Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO), action statement b, that permits one inoperable channel per trip system for up to 14 days. To make both channels in one trip system inoperable would require entry into the TS 3.0.3 statement which permits operation for only one hour before shutdown actions are required. The licensee's Technical Support Instruc-tion, 09-S-06-1, Technical Specification Instrumentation Loop Logic, for TS table 3.3.4.1-3 stated that reactor vessel water level trip units N699A and N699B comprised one trip system and level trip units N699E and N699F comprised the redundant trip system. Trip units N699A and N699B both use the reference leg connected to condensing pot While the NRC was considering the licensee's request for discretionary enforcement, the licensee discovered a letter to the NRC dated June,1984 (AECM 84/0319) that revised the definition of these trip systems such that level instruments N699A and N699E comprised one trip system and N699B and N699F comprised the second trip system. Based on the revised definition, the licensee could bypass the level trips associated with the A reference leg condensing pot and meet TS 3.3.4.1 action statement b. On May 13, 1987 the licensee bypassed the necessary reactor vessel level instrumenta-tion as allowed by TS, and filled the A reference leg condensing pot. The level discrepancy was eliminated, however the reason for the loss of level in the A reference leg has not been identified. The licensee is monitor-ing water levels to determine if the condition reappears. Three Material Non-Conformance Reports (MNCRs) were written (MNCRs 0168-87,0169-87 and 0170-87) to document the level instrumentation discrepancies. A Quality Deficiency Report (QDR) 225-87 was written to document the incorrect channel / trip system arrangement defined in procedure 09-S-06- No violations or deviations were identifie .

It was noted that escalation for resolution of differ-ences that' could occur at the interface between . plant staff and Nuclear Plant Engineering (NPE) was not addressed in any procedures. The licensee committed to review and update.the NPE procedure manual appropriately. On June 2, 1986, NPE Administrative Procedure 01-204, Revision 0, Escalation, was implemented. The inspectors reviewed the procedure and noted that it provides guidance for the process to be followed in the resolution of disputes or disagreements.

l (0 pen) Inspector Followup . Item 416/86-17-04. Paragraphs 6.2.1.1.5.8, 6.2.2.2 and 6.5.2.2 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report- (UFSAR)

still do not accurately describe the features required to automatically j initiate the Containment Spray System (CSS). Following the initiation of 4 the Low Pressure Coolant Injection (LPCI) systems (A or ' B), . automatic j initiation of the CSS requires the timing out of a 10 minute timer, with

! -- the presence of a high drywell pressure signal and a high containment pressure signal . This logic then opens the containment spray valve and closes the LPCI injection valve. This item remains open until the UFSAR accurately reflects the CSS operation.

Basin siphon line. On February 25, 1987 a Temporary Change Notice was issued to correct this. On March 30, 1987 the change was incorporated by Revision 29 of the SO Upon reviewing this section of the SOI the inspectors noted several other discrepancies. The two notes preceding the procedure steps appear to be confusing. One note states to vent after level is restored above 7.25 feet, and the other states to only vent after level has increased above 6.67 feet. Step 5.1.2.c.(1) requires the operator to remove the blind flange to access valve F304. The flange does not prevent access to the valve. Step 5.1.2.c.(4) states to add water to the vent line if required. If the water level in the vent line is less than the basin, there is probably a problem that places the operability of the siphon in question, and adding water to the vent line would not be an acceptable solution. This was discussed with the license (Closed) IFI 416/82-56-01.

Maintenance Program Implementation (62700)

The objectives of this inspection were to determine whether the GGNS maintenance program is being implemented in accordance with regulatory requirements, and to determine the ability of the licensee to conduct an effective maintenance program on important plant equipmen The inspectors selected records and procedures pertaining to safety related and non-safety-related equipment failure leading to a plant shutdown, equipment failure leading to reduced capability of a safety related system, and a recurring safety related equipment failur Parts of this inspection were conducted prior to this reporting period, starting in April 1986. The results are documented in NRC Inspection Reports 416/86-11, 86-13, 87-01 and 87-0 During this reporting period, the inspectors completed a review on recurring safety related equipment failures. The inspectors selected, at random, the continued failures of the Off-Gas Hydrogen Analyzer __ __-________- - ____ __ - _______-__ _ >

.-

'Since the Off-Gas System has been placed in service in 1983, the Hydrogen Analyzers have experienced repeated failures, largely due to wetting of the hydrogen sensor. The electrochemical hydrogen sensors are galvanic in nature and are in an acid electrolyte system separated from the sample atmosphere by a gas permeable membrane. As this membrane became wetted due to moisture, less hydrogen permeated and the sensor became less sensitive than it must be 'for the analyzer to properly indicate hydrogen concentration in the Off-Gas System effluent. The-licensee concluded that the principal source of water was the inventory maintained in the analyzer chamber (Sample Detection Assembly) to act as a coolant and flame arrester. A Design Change Package (DCP 84/4045) was implemented during the 1986 refueling outage which modified the hydrogen analyzer chamber assemblies on both units to allow the water to be removed from them and still provide the required flame arresting capability. A high analyzer temperature detector was installed which causes the sample inlet to be isolated if a high temperature should occu Subsequent to startup in January 1987, the Hydrogen Analyzers continued to exhibit repeated failure Again, .a failures were attributed to moisture on the hydrogen sensor The licensee performed a series of tests, which included running one of the units for an extended period of time on a relatively dry, zero purge instead of the Off Gas sample. After about two months of such operation it appeared that moisture in the sample gas was causing the same problem that the units were experiencing when there was water in the sample detector assemblies prior to implementation of the DCP above. The licensee is currently developing DCP 87/0058, which will add sample moisture removal equipment. General Electric is providing technical assistance and will furnish the necessary hardwar At the present time one hydrogen analyzer is operating and the other is standing by on a zero purge. The performance of both units is being monitored on a Control Room recorde The inspectors witnessed portions of the work and reviewed associated documentation and found no problems except that the operation and mainten-ance manual, 74SO4244AD, Revision 1, Off Gas Hydrogen Analyzer Model OGA 200AD, was not updated to reflect changes made by DCP 84/4045. The DCP contained copies of amended manual pages, however, which provided the necessary operating and maintenance instructions for the units as modified. The licensee was using the vendor manual and the amended manual pages for referenc No violations or deviations were identifie . Review of Quality Assurance for Unit 2 Extended Construction Delay (92050)

This inspection was conducted to provide a periodic review of Quality Assurance (QA) activities for a construction site under an extended dela The inspection was to determine whether the licensee had established adequate implementation plans, instructions and procedures which are in
