VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - NRC EVALUATION OF CHANGES, TESTS, AND EXPERIMENTS AND PERMANENT PLANT MODIFICATIONS INSPECTION REPORT 05000424/2014007 AND 05000425/2014007
Dear Mr. Tynan:
On June 27, 2014, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2, and discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. J. Thomas and other members of your staff. Inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.
The NRC inspectors did not identify any findings or violations of more than minor significance.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response, if any, will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,

SUMMARY
Inspection Report (IR) 05000424/2014007, 05000425/2014007; 06/09/2014-06/27/2014; Vogtle
Electric Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2; NRC Evaluations of Changes, Tests, and Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications.
This report covers a two-week, on-site inspection by three regional inspectors. No findings or violations were identified. The Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRCs) program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process, Revision 4, dated December 2006.
REPORT DETAILS
REACTOR SAFETY
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity
1R17 Evaluations of Changes, Tests, Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications
Main article: IP 71111.17T
a. Inspection Scope
Evaluations of Changes, Tests, and Experiments: The team reviewed six safety evaluations performed pursuant to Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 50.59, Changes, tests, and experiments, to determine if the evaluations were adequate and that prior NRC approval was obtained as appropriate. The team also reviewed 19 screenings where licensee personnel had determined that a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation was not necessary. The team reviewed these documents to determine if:
- the changes, tests, or experiments performed were evaluated in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 and that sufficient documentation existed to confirm that a license amendment was not required;
- the safety issues requiring the changes, tests or experiments were resolved;
- the licensee conclusions for evaluations of changes, tests, or experiments were correct and consistent with 10 CFR 50.59; and
- the design and licensing basis documentation used to support the change was updated to reflect the change.
The team used, in part, Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 96-07, Guidelines for 10 CFR 50.59 Implementation, Revision 1, to determine acceptability of the completed evaluations and screenings. The NEI document was endorsed by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.187, Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments, dated November 2000.
This inspection constituted six samples of evaluations and 19 samples of screenings as defined in Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.17-04.
Permanent Plant Modifications: The team reviewed 10 permanent plant modifications that had been installed in the plant during the last three years. The modifications reviewed are listed below:
- Design Change Package (DCP) 1060336501, 480-Volt (V) Breakers and 4160/480V Transformer Replacement, Ver. 4.0
- DCP 1081089101, Replacement/Modification of Motor Operators HV8811A/B, Ver. 6.0
- DCP 1102491801, Penetration through Auxiliary Building Roof, Ver. 2.0
- DCP SNC466754, High Efficiency Purge Unit, Ver. 1.0
- ED SNC438360, Westinghouse 2D82820G02 5-V Direct Current Power Supply, Ver. 2.0
- ED SNC447263, MSIV Stem Material Change to SA638 Gr 660, Ver. 2.0
- ED SNC128991, Reserve Auxiliary Transformer and Generator Step-up Transformer Lighting Arresters, Ver. 1.0 The modifications were selected based upon risk significance, safety significance, and complexity. The team reviewed the modifications selected to determine if:
- the supporting design and licensing basis documentation was updated;
- the changes were in accordance with the specified design requirements;
- the procedures and training plans affected by the modification had been adequately updated;
- the test documentation as required by the applicable test programs had been updated; and
- post-modification testing adequately verified system operability and/or functionality.
The team also used applicable industry standards to evaluate acceptability of the modifications and performed walkdowns of accessible portions of the modifications.
Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.
This inspection constituted 10 permanent plant modification samples as defined in IP 71111.17-04.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
