Licensee Action on Previous Enforcement Matters (92702)
(Closed) Violation 424/87-01-01.
Failure to follow procedure for 1)
confirmation of test results for vital battery surveillance, 2) QA hold point review and Shift Supervisor approval to work maintenance work order, 3) verification by maintenance technicians that drawings' and vendor manuals were current revisions, 4) review and initialing operation logs.
Item 1 relates to the failure of an independent reviewer, as required by Procedure 00404-C, Surveillance Test Program, step 4.5.4.1, to confirm that test results satisfy acceptance criteria.
This was noted during review of Procedures 28910-101,102,103, and 104, Class 1E 18-Month Battery Inspection and Maintenance.
The recorded data indicated that intercell resistance on rack to rack and tier to tier jumpers exceeded the Technical Specification (TS) requirement of 50 X 10-6 ohms. The Surveil-lance Task Sheets (STS), which listed the TS requirement as part of the acceptance criteria, had in each case been. signed off as meeting acceptance criteria.
The licensee stated that an evaluation had not been performed.
Since the cable resistance had not been determined and subtracted from the total resistance, the value of the cell to cell resistance was not known.

,
The inspector reviewed the licensee's corrective actions, noting that the responsible personnel were counseled on the importance of procedural complianci. and TS values.
The revised Battery Surveillance Procedure 28910-C, Revision 10, reflects an adequate method to measure intercell resistance and should prevent recurrence of this item.
Item 2 refers to the failure of a technician to obtain the signature of the shift supervisor prior to performing work or the signature for review of QC holdpoints as required by steps 5.1 and 5.2 of Procedure 34223-C, Revision 1, Channel Calibration of the Gaseous Effluent Monitors.
The inspector reviewed the licensee's corrective actions, noting that the licensee stopped work on the calibration of the radiation monitor, updated the data sheet to reflect a QC holdpoint review and determined that a maintenance work order (MW0) was required to disassemble the detector skid.
Deficiency Report 1-87-203 was initiated to identify the dis-crepancy and a " toolbox" training session was conducted to reemphasize procedural requirements with regard to calibration of radiation monitors.
l From the review, the inspector determined these corrective actions as
'
being adequate to prevent recurrence of this item.
Item 3 refers to the issue that maintenance personnel were observed to have worked with MW0s which had not received verification that drawings, procedures and vendor manuals were current every seven days as required by Procedure 00103-C, Document Distribution and Control, and 00101-C, Drawing Controls.
The licensee counseled the technicians on the importance of verifying that the MWO contained the current version of all working docements.
In addition, all supervisors and foremen were instructed by letter to inventory work packages twice weekly to ensure personnel are complying with procedural requirements.
The inspector noted from his review that supervisors and foremen were inventorying work packages twice weekly to ensure technicians were complying with procedural requirements; no deficiencies were noted in this practice.
Item 4 refers to the failure of the Shift Supervisor (SS) to initial the SS log of January 15, 1987, for the previous night's log entries as speci-j fied by Procedure 10004-C, Revision 3, Shift Relief.
i The licensee discussed the problem with the shift supervisor concerning misinterpreting the requirements to review / initial the appropriate logs.
Each shift held a shift briefing to emphasize the requirements to initial each document reviewed. A night order was written and posted to stress to the shift that it is required to initial each document reviewed.
The inspector determined from his review of tne night orders and discus-
.
sions with operators that this requirement is being complied with and that operators have a comprehensive understanding of this item.

Lower tier documents which provide for implementing the required reading and training aspects of FSAR Section 13.5.1.2 and NUREG-0737, Item I.C.5 commitments are not adequately identified within the commitment tracking system.
The licensee noted that Procedure 00414-C, Revision 2, Operating Experience Reports provided for programmed evaluation of operating experience and for distribution of operating experience to affected departments, but it did not provide for establishment of departmental required reading files or for establishment of training materials.
In response to this, the licensee has developed or revised departmental procedures to address and track this commitment.
,
The inspector reviewed the following procedures and determined that the above requirements are adequately addressed and each is listed in the
'
licensee's commitment tracking system:
00414-C Revision 3, Operating Experience Reports 50026-C Revision 0, Engineering Support Department 0AP Reading File 60005-C Revision 2, Incorporation of changes in Training Material and Simulators 10017-C Revision 0, Operational Reading Book l
31045-C Revision 4, Chemistry Log, Filing and record storage 40000-C Revision 4, Conduct of Health Physics Operations 20025-C Revision 1, Maintenance Experience Assessment Program Additionally, the inspector reviewed the " required reading books" and interviewed licensee personnel.

Two examples were noted where Plant Review Board (PRB) meeting minutes did not reflect review of all. procedures reviewed by the PRB as required by the-proposed TS. Additionally, several examples were noted where it could not be demonstrated by the applicant that mandatory PRB comments had been satisfactorily dispositioned in documents as required by Procedure 00002-C, Plant Review Board Duties and
,
I Responsibilities.
. Al so, inconsistencies were noted in the way PRB comments were documented in the minutes.
The licensee amended the PRB board minutes of 85-30 and 85-31 to reflect
the review of Emergency Operating Procedure 19121 and Administrative l
Procedure 00200-C which were accomplished during those meetings.
PRB 86-29 minutes reflect the review of subject matter discussed in the minutes of PRB 85-28 and that the mandatory requirements were incorporated in the applicable procedures.
The licensee has resolved the inconsistencies in the way in which procedures with comment were dt.,cumented in the minutes. The PRB resolved to indicate only the disposition of the items the board reviewed instead of also including comments in the meeting minutes. They also incorporated the use of comment review sheets; when a member has comment, the comments will be compiled into a single review sheet and sent to the responsible department for resolution.
IFI 424/85-55-03 is closri.
(Closed)
IFI 424/86-86-01.
Inconsistencies were noted in the admin-istrative control of changes to the Emergency Operating Procedure (E0P)
Setpcht document, Emergency Response Guideline (ERG) feedback items and approval of ERG feedback items.
The inconsistencies noted were numerous cases of pen and ink changes being made by the licensee to the Westinghouse E0P setpoint document with no documentation to trace the specific changes.to an authorizing source document; ERG feedback items were not being maintained as a controlled document, and ERG items were being used to justify E0P deviations from the ERG prior to either written or verbal' confirmation from Westinghouse.
The inspector reviewed revised Procedure 10013-C, Revision 3 Writing -
Emergency Operating Procedures From the-Westinghouse Emergency Response Guidelines.
He determined that adequate-controls are provided for handling pen and ink changes to E0P setpoint documents, for placing ERG feedback inputs into the document control system, and for reviewing and approving ERG feedback' items prior to implementation of these items into the E0P.

IFI 424/87-01-04. The January 1987 inspector questioned whether i
the radiation monitor was seismically and/or environmentally qualified
{
equipment and whether provisions existed in the procedure to maintain i
these qualifications.
Licensee administrative Procedure 00350-C, required that work performed on seismically or environmentally qualified equipment be done under the control of a MWO. The use of surveillance procedures to control removal and restoration of seismically and/or environmentally qualified equipment was questioned.
j The inspector noted from his review that the licensee has reviewed their i
procedures which deal with Radiation Monitor Calibration and has revised the procedures to include the requirement for obtaining a MWO for seismic monitors listed in FSAR table 11.5.2-1, prior to performing surveillance procedures.

Readout Control Box (RCB) which was removed during the surveillance procedure being conducted on Control Room Air Intake (IRE-12116) Process Radio Gas Monitor, was used to perform calibra-tions on other monitors without any tracking, i.e., no MWO was issued.
Deficiency Report 1-87-161 was written to document this occurrence and Engineering Report 87-0036 was generated to perform an evaluation of the incident.
The engineering report determined that the RCB is inter-changeable on the monitors and there is no problem with using them in this
!
manner.
Still, the removal of the RCB did require a MWO and the licensee showed the inspector a procedure that cautioned personnel performing th's action with a RCB to generate a MW0. The procedure was a draft copy The inspector noted from his review that the licensee has issued revised procedures which provide procedural control by requiring a MWO to be issued whenever RCBs are required to be removed.
IFI 424/87-01-06 is closed.
Within the area, no violations or deviations were identified.
