SUBJECT:
PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000440/2022004; AND 07200069/2022001 AND EXERCISE OF ENFORCEMENT DISCRETION
Dear Rod Penfield:
On December 31, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Perry Nuclear Power Plant. On January 26, 2023, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.
One finding of very low safety significance (Green) is documented in this report. This finding involved a violation of NRC requirements. One Severity Level IV violation without an associated finding is documented in this report. We are treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
A licensee-identified violation which was determined to be Severity Level IV is documented in this report. We are treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
The NRC identified a violation of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)
72.212 (b)(6) associated with tornado hazard protection. Because this violation was identified during the discretion period covered by Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 22-001, Enforcement Discretion for Noncompliance of Tornado Hazard Protection requirements at Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations, and because the licensee was implementing compensatory measures and plans to take the necessary actions to restore compliance, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion by not issuing an enforcement action for the violation and is allowing continued ISFSI handling operations.
If you contest the violations or the significance or severity of the violations documented in this inspection report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
February 10, 2023 If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

List of Findings and Violations
Zero Profile Transporter Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV NCV 05000440/2022004-01 Open/Closed Not Applicable 60856 The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 72.48(d)(1),
Changes, Tests, and Experiments, for the licensees failure to provide a written evaluation describing the basis for determining that the change to the design of the Holtec HI-STORM FW system did not require a license amendment. Specifically, while implementing the HI-STORM FW system, the licensees calculational verification of the zero profile transporter (ZPT) did not adhere to the design requirements resulting in two changes that could result in uncontrolled movements of the HI-STORM FW overpack during transport potentially impacting the shielding function of the overpack.

PLANT STATUS
The plant began the inspection period at full power. On October 31, 2022, plant operators shut down the reactor to facilitate work on the reactor coolant system (RCS) unidentified leakage, due to indications of degrading performance on one of the A recirculation pump seals. Plant operators returned the reactor to full power operations on November 11, 2022. On December 2, 2022, plant operators lowered reactor power to 76 percent to facilitate work for the load line adjustment. Plant operators returned to full power operation by December 3, 2022. On December 18, 2022, plant operators lowered reactor power to 68 percent to perform rod sequence exchange. Plant operators returned the reactor to full power operations on December 19, 2022. The Unit remained at or near full power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Enforcement Discretion Enforcement Action EA-22-133: Tornado Hazards Protection Requirements at Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations 60855
Description:
Upon issuance of U.S. NRC Enforcement Guidance Memorandum (EGM) 22-001 (ML22087A496), dated April 15, 2022, the licensee performed an assessment of all outdoor dry cask storage activities that are not explicitly analyzed for tornado hazards in the cask licensing basis. One configuration was identified by the licensee when a loaded Holtec HI-STORM FW storage overpack was brought out of the fuel building without a lid installed. This configuration is not explicitly analyzed in the HI-STORM FW Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR). Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 72.212 (b)(6),states, in part, that:
the general licensee must:...review the Safety Analysis Report referenced in the CoC [Certificate of Compliance] or amended CoC and the related NRC Safety Evaluation Report prior to use of the general license, to determine whether or not the reactor site parameters, including analyses of earthquake intensity and tornado missiles, are enveloped by the cask design bases considered in these reports. The results of this review must be documented in the evaluation made in paragraph (b)(5) of this section.
Tornado hazards are evaluated in the Holtec HI-STORM FW FSAR Section 2.2.3.e, "Environmental Phenomena and Accident Condition Design Criteria," and Section 12.2.6.2, "Tornado
Analysis.
" These sections of the FSAR do not include an analysis for tornado hazards with the storage overpack lid removed.
Corrective Actions: The licensee entered the issue into its corrective action program to address the actions specified in EGM 22-001. Specifically, the licensee established additional measures that:
1) mitigate tornado hazards, through procedures, during periods of ISFSI handling operations which include:
a.
precluding starting ISFSI handling operations during periods of predicted adverse weather; b.
establishing meteorological monitoring criteria and assigning staff to monitor weather during ISFSI handling operations; c.
describing actions to take if a severe weather hazard is predicted to cease ISFSI handling operations and to place the cask in an analyzed condition; and d.
minimizing the duration of ISFSI handling operations during which ISFSI important to safety structures, systems, and components are in an unanalyzed condition.
2) document that required weather checks are complete prior to the start of ISFSI handling operations 3) document in the CAP a request for the CoC holder to request an amendment within 6 months of the date of the EGM Because the licensee implemented compensatory measures and plans to take necessary actions to restore compliance in accordance with the EGM, the NRC is allowing continued ISFSI handling operations.

Enforcement:
Significance/Severity: The inspectors assessed the issue as being of more than minor significance, but not more than Severity Level IV. Consistent with the guidance in EGM 22-001, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion.
Violation: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 72.212 (b)(6), states, in part, that:
the general licensee must review the Safety Analysis Report referenced in the CoC and the related NRC Safety Evaluation Report, prior to use of the general license, to determine whether or not the reactor site parameters, including analyses of tornado missiles, are enveloped by the cask design bases considered in these reports. The results of this review must be documented in the evaluation made in paragraph (b)(5) of this section.
On April 15, 2022, the licensee did not have a documented evaluation determining whether the reactor site parameters, including analyses of tornado missiles, were enveloped by the cask design bases considered in the safety analysis report. Specifically, the licensee failed to have an analysis for tornado hazards when the loaded storage overpack is outside the fuel building without a lid installed.
Basis for Discretion: Because this violation was identified during the discretion period covered by Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 22-001, "Enforcement Discretion for Noncompliance of Tornado Hazard Protection requirements at Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations,"
and because the licensee was implementing compensatory measures and plans to take the necessary actions to restore compliance, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion by not issuing an enforcement action for the violation and is allowing continued ISFSI handling operations.
Zero Profile Transporter Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV NCV 05000440/2022004-01 Open/Closed Not Applicable 60856 The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 72.48(d)(1),
Changes, Tests, and Experiments, for the licensees failure to provide a written evaluation describing the basis for determining that the change to the design of the Holtec HI-STORM FW system did not require a license amendment. Specifically, while implementing the HI-STORM FW system, the licensees calculational verification of the zero profile transporter (ZPT) did not adhere to the design requirements resulting in two changes that could result in uncontrolled movements of the HI-STORM FW overpack during transport, potentially impacting the shielding function of the overpack.
Description:
Holtec Report No. HI-2114830, titled, HI-STORM FW Multi-Purpose Canister Storage System Final Safety Analysis Report, Revision 9, is the safety analysis report for the HI-STORM FW. Section 2.0.2 of Holtec Report No. HI-2114830, titled HI-STORM FW Overpack Design Criteria, states, in part, The HI-STORM FW overpack includes both concrete and structural steel parts that are classified as important-to-safety. The concrete material is defined as important-to-safety because of its shielding function. At Perry, the ZPT is used to move a HI-STORM FW overpack loaded with spent fuel from the Fuel Handling Building to the ISFSI pad. The ZPT is classified as not important to safety by the licensee and was not certified with an ASME N-stamp to meet all quality assurance standards of ASME Section III.
The inspectors reviewed Drawing No. 5401, Zero Profile Transporter, Revision 10 which is the design drawing for the ZPT, and Document No. PS-1129, Purchase Specification for the HI-STORM Zero Profile Transporter, Revision 5 which is the purchase specification for the ZPT. Section 4.1 of Document No. PS-1129 states, in part, Structural integrity will be evaluated using ASME Section III, Subsection NF, Class 3, 2001 Edition (for linear structure stress limits) and Appendix F. Section 4.2 of Document No. PS-1129, states, in part, Welds will be evaluated using ASME Section III, Subsection NF, Class 3, 2001 Edition.
The ZPT and its associated connections were evaluated for Level D loading condition. The Level D loading condition addressed the dead load of the ZPT in combination with the safe shutdown earthquake loads of the ZPT. Structural integrity of the not-important-to-safety ZPT is maintained when subjected to the Level D loading by ensuring the ZPT meets ASME Section III, Subsection NF, and Appendix F. However, if ASME Section III, Subsection NF, and Appendix F are not met, then structural integrity of the ZPT is not ensured when subjected to the Level D loading. If the structural integrity of the ZPT is not maintained during the transport of the spent fuel cask, this could result in the uncontrolled movement of the spent fuel cask, potentially impacting the shielding function of the overpack.
As stated above, the licensees calculational verification of the zero profile transporter (ZPT)did not adhere to the design requirements, resulting in two changes that introduced the potential for uncontrolled movements of the HI-STORM FW overpack. The changes were to the fillet weld connection between the ZPT top and bottom plate and the ZPT side shell, and were specific to the
- (1) connection acceptance limit, and
- (2) limit based on the ultimate tensile strength:
- (1) Fillet Weld Connection Acceptance Limit:
Based on PS-1129, Revision 5, the ZPT was evaluated as an ASME Class 3 linear support.
ASME Section III, Subsection NF-3360 (2001 Edition), requires that the design by analysis of Class 3 linear-type supports shall be performed in accordance with ASME Section III, Subsection NF-3320, and NF-3340. ASME Section III, Subsection NF-3324.5 (2001 Edition),requires that the allowable stress limits for fillet welds shall be as specified in Table NF-3324.5(a)-1, titled Allowable Stress Limits for Class 1 Linear-Type Support Welds. ASME Section III, Subsection NF, Table NF-3324.5(a)-1 (2001), provides the stress limits for fillet welds which are based on 0.30 times the minimum tensile strength of weld metal, except shear stress on base metal shall not exceed 0.40 times the yield stress of base metal. The inspectors reviewed ASME Section III, Subsection NF (2001 edition), and Section NF-3324.5, titled, Design of Welded Joints. Section NF-3324.5 states, in part, The rules and stress limits which must be satisfied for welds for any Level A through D Service and Test Loading stated in the Design Specification are those given in NF-3324.5(b) multiplied by the appropriate base material stress limit factor given in Table NF-3523(b)-1 for component supports ASME Section III, Subsection NF, titled Table NF-3523(b)-1 Elastic Analysis Stress Categories and Stress Limit Factors for Class 1, 2, 3, AND MC Linear Type Supports Designed by Analysis Component Supports delineates for Service Level D loading condition to use ASME Section IIII Appendix F.
The inspectors reviewed ASME Section III, Appendix F (2001 Edition), and identified an acceptance limit that was associated with the failure mode based on the shear of the base metal for the fillet welded connection. ASME Section III, Subsection F-1334.2, titled Stresses in Shear (2001 edition), states, in part, The shear stress on the gross section shall not exceed the lesser of 0.72 multiplied times Sy and 0.42 multiplied times Su. In this application Sy is considered the yield strength of the material (structural member) and Su is considered the ultimate tensile strength of the material (structural member). In their review of Calculation No. G58-H-HI-2084138, Structural Analysis of Zero Profile Transporter for Perry, Revision 2, the inspectors noted that the licensee used a Level D acceptance limit of 0.54 multiplied times the ultimate strength of the weld metal/base metal for the fillet welded connection between the ZPT top and bottom plate and the ZPT side shell, in lieu of 0.42 multiplied times the ultimate strength of the base metal.
- (2) Limit Based on the Ultimate Tensile Strength:
ASME Section III, Subsection NF, Table NF-3324.5(a)-1, provides an acceptance limit of 0.30 times the minimum tensile strength of weld metal for Level A. Calculation No. G58-H-HI-2084138, Revision 2 used acceptance limits for the Level A (dead load of ZPT)loading condition based on 0.3 multiplied times the minimum tensile strength of the base metal for Level A. The licensee also used the strength of the base metal in lieu of the weld metal for Level D limits which was a change to the design requirements of the ZPT.
The inspectors were particularly concerned with whether the two changes would result in more than a minimal increase in the likelihood of occurrence of a malfunction of an SSC important to safety, specifically the HI-STORM FW overpack, and hence require a license amendment per 10 CFR 72.48(c)(2). NEI 96-07, Guidelines for 10 CFR 72.48 Implementation, Appendix B, dated March 5, 2001, endorsed by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 3.72, Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 72.48, Changes, Tests, and Experiments, March 2001, provides industry guidance on complying with the provisions of 10 CFR 72.48. The two issues described above are consistent with the definition of a change; in 10 CFR 72.48 and the NEI 96-07, Appendix B, guidance states, the definition of change includes modifications of an existing provision (e.g., SSC design requirement, analysis method, or parameter)to the ISFSI facility or spent fuel storage cask design or procedures. Pertinent guidance when evaluating the impact a not-important-to-safety component has on the design function of an important to safety component includes the following:
a.
Section B4.3.2 of NEI 96-07 states, in part, the term malfunction of an SSC important to safety refers to the failure of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) to perform their intended design functions - including both important to safety (ITS) SSCs and not-important to safety (NITS) SSCs when the failure of the NITS SSCs to perform their design functions could affect the ability of the ITS SSCs to perform their design function.
b.
Section B4.3.2 of NEI 96-07 states, changes in design requirements for earthquakes, tornados, and other natural phenomena should be treated as potentially affecting the likelihood of malfunction. Although this criterion allows minimal increases, licensee must still meet applicable regulatory requirements and other acceptance criteria to which they are committed (such as contained in Regulatory Guides and nationally recognized industry consensus standards, e.g., the ASME BPV Code and IEEE standards). Further, departures from the design, fabrication, construction, testing, and performance standards as outlined in the General Design Criteria ([Subpart] F to Part 72) are not compatible with a no more than minimal increase standard.
The licensee screened the engineering changes to implement the Holtec HI-STORM FW system at Perry in 10 CFR 72.48 Screen No. 22-00572, ISFSI Dry Fuel Storage HI-STORM FW Transition, dated November 1, 2022. In the screening, the licensee concluded that Calculation No. G58-H-HI-2084138, Revision 2, demonstrate structural integrity of the ZPT per the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC),Section III, Division 1, Subsection NF criteria. Furthermore, the licensee concluded the results/conclusions of these calculations confirm that using the existing ZPT does not represent an adverse change to the design functions of the FW system. As such, use of the ZPT ancillaries for the HI-STORM FW system screens out from further review under the provisions of 10 CFR 72.48. However, since the licensee did not perform an actual written evaluation pursuant to 10 CFR 72.48 for the two changes, the impacts of the changes to the fillet weld connection between the ZPT top and bottom plate and the ZPT side shell were not appropriately considered. Based upon the above, the inspectors concluded the licensee failed to provide a written evaluation describing the basis for determining that the change to the design of the Holtec HI-STORM FW system did not require a license amendment. Specifically, while implementing the HI-STORM FW system, the licensees calculational verification of the zero profile transporter (ZPT) did not adhere to the design requirements, resulting in two changes that could result in uncontrolled movements of the HI-STORM FW overpack during transport, potentially impacting the shielding function of the overpack described in the safety analysis report. By the licensee failing to provide a written evaluation, the inspectors could not conclude that the changes would not meet any of the 10 CFR 72.48(c)(2) criteria, and in particular, not result in a more than minimal increase in the likelihood of occurrence of a malfunction of an SSC important to safety used in establishing the cask design bases without further evaluation.
Corrective Actions: The licensee documented the two issues in Condition Report (CR) 2022-08533 and CR 2022-08952. In response to this issue, the licensee performed a functionality determination. The inspectors reviewed the functionality determination, and no performance deficiencies were identified in this determination.
Corrective Action References:
CR 2022-08533; NRC Identified: Potential Non-Conformance Identified with the Design Calculation for the Dry Cask Storage Zero Profile Transporter; November 8, 2022 CR 2022-08952; NRC Identified: Potential Non-Conformance Identified with the Design Calculation for the Dry Cask Storage Zero Profile Transporter; November 22, 2022
Performance Assessment:
None. In accordance with Section 2.2 of the Enforcement Policy and Inspection Manual, Chapter 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening, ISFSIs are not subject to the Significance Determination Process and are not subject to the Reactor Oversight Process; therefore, violations identified at ISFSIs are assessed using traditional enforcement.
Traditional enforcement violations are not assessed for cross-cutting aspects.
The inspectors assessed the significance of the violation using the NRC Enforcement Policy and Enforcement Manual. The inspectors determined that the violation was more than minor because the licensees design did not meet the acceptance limits of ASME Section III, Subsection NF, and Appendix F; and the inspectors could not conclude that the changes would not result in a more than minimal increase in the likelihood of occurrence of a malfunction of an SSC important to safety used in establishing the cask design bases without further evaluation.
Enforcement:
Severity: The inspectors characterized the violation as a Severity Level IV violation because the licensee was able to determine the ZPT was functional but nonconforming.
Violation: 10 CFR 72.48(d)(1) requires, in part, that the licensee shall maintain records of changes in the facility or spent fuel storage cask design, of changes in procedures, and tests and experiments made pursuant to paragraph
- (c) of this section. These records must include a written evaluation which provides the bases for the determination that the change does not require a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) amendment pursuant to paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
10 CFR 72.48(c)(2) requires, in part, that a general licensee shall request that the certificate holder obtain a CoC amendment pursuant to 10 CFR 72.244, prior to implementing a proposed change if the change would meet any of several specific criteria, including creating more than a minimal increase in the likelihood of occurrence of a malfunction of a system, structure, or component (SSC) important to safety previously evaluated in the FSAR.
Contrary to the above, as of November 1, 2022, the licensee did not include a written evaluation providing the bases for determining that changes did not require a CoC amendment pursuant to the criteria in 10 CFR 72.48(c)(2). Specifically, the licensee introduced the potential for uncontrolled movements of the HI-STORM FW overpack, potentially impacting the shielding function of the overpack described in the safety analysis report, due to the changes in the ZPT design of the fillet weld connection between the ZPT top and bottom plate, and the ZPT side shell and were specific to the
- (1) connection acceptance limit, and
- (2) limit based on the ultimate tensile strength. Because this violation was of low safety significance and was entered into the corrective actions programs as CR-2022-08533 and CR 2022-08952, and the issue was not repetitive or willful, this is being treated as a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation (NCV), consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Observation: Reactor Coolant System Unidentified Leakage from November 21, 2021, to November 21, 2022 71152A During this period, the inspectors reviewed the reactor coolant system (RCS) leakage, tracking, and actions, by the licensee from April 2022, with a leak rate of 0.12 gallons per minute (gpm), through October 2022, with a final leak rate of 2.5 gpm and that lead to a reactor shutdown to identify and repair the leak source.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees procedure for tracking degrading RCS leakage and their adherence to the implementation of response actions at the various levels outlined within this procedure. Yellow level 2, greater than 0.5 gpm, was reached on April 2022, and red level 3, greater than 1.0 gpm, was reached on October 2022. The licensee promptly demonstrated the required increased sampling, chemistry analysis, and assessments at each level. By October 20, 2022, the leak rate had reached 2.0 gpm, and there were indications of A reactor recirculating pump seal degradation. On October 31, 2022, plant operators shut down the reactor and completed a drywell entry to identify and resolve the unidentified RCS leakage. During drywell entries, the licensee, verified by the inspectors, identified the A reactor recirculating pump seal as the primary source of RCS leakage. Additional efforts, such as using a drone to assess potential leakage sources above the 620 level in the drywell, were unsuccessful. After completing the repairs and maintenance outage, the RCSs unidentified leakage lowered to 0.15 gpm, which is in line with the baseline leakage coming out of the last refueling outage.
The inspectors assessment found the licensees problem identification and resolution program effective in identifying, prioritizing, evaluating, and correcting problems related to this sample. The inspectors identified no performance deficiencies or violations.
Observation: Annual Review of the Divisional Diesel Generators Alarms between December 2021, and December 1, 2022 71152A The inspectors reviewed and assessed the licensees corrective action documents associated with emergency diesel generator annunciator alarms over the past year. The inspectors review included 35 corrective action documents.
During this period, the inspectors noted the documentation of several similar issues associated with the diesel generator jacket water, lube oil, and fuel oil subsystems. None of these issues directly impacted operability or functionality, but the number of issues during this period warranted this detailed review.
The inspectors reviewed several electrical protective relays and contactor issues showing age-related wear identified during the licensees routine electrical bucket inspections. The inspectors reviewed instances that indicated several components were near the end of useful life with no ultimate failures. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the circumstances related to multiple alarms of the open-phase detection instrumentation that occurred during electric distribution bus maintenance. The inspectors did not identify operability issues, and the setpoints of these alarms are under review by the licensee for adjustment to more accurately represent alarm and safe conditions for operation.
The inspectors assessment found the licensees problem identification and resolution program effective in identifying, prioritizing, evaluating, and correcting problems related to this sample. The inspectors identified no performance deficiencies or violations.
Observation: Semiannual Sample for Potential Adverse Trend in Maintenance Rework 71152S The inspectors performed a semiannual review of the licensee's potential adverse trend in maintenance rework for the third and fourth quarters of 2022. During this period, there were 11 rework issues reviewed for this sample by the inspectors. These issues had minimal risk impacts on the initiating events and Mitigating Systems Safety cornerstones, but the number of rework issues and their impact on the work management process remains an issue worth tracking. Common problems include:
wrong replacement parts,
failure to eliminate identified leakage, and
timeliness of repairs, as the timeliness impacted the necessary final repair work as degradation was more exponential than linear.
The inspectors found no major safety concerns or loss of function but identified a negative trend with the licensee's work management program's process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities; that is, the necessary rework has an impact on long term scheduled planned maintenance efficiency and scope of work.
The inspectors' assessment found the licensee's problem identification and resolution program effective in identifying, prioritizing, evaluating, and correcting problems related to this sample. The inspectors identified no performance deficiencies or violations.
LER 2022-002-00, Steam Bypass Valve Demand Limited on the 'B' Train due to a Degraded Signal in the Maximum Combined Flow Limit (MCFL) Circuit Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green NCV 05000440/2022004-02 Open/Closed
[H.4] -
Teamwork 71153 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated non-cited violation (NCV) for the licensees failure to enter Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.6 in a timely manner when the maximum combined flow limiter (MCFL) In Control light was lit in the Main Control Room on October 7, 2022. Specifically, when the MCFL light was lit in the controlling channel, the main turbine bypass system was inoperable, and the licensee did not enter the appropriate TS condition.
Description:
On October 7, 2022, at 17:40, plant operators identified that the maximum combined flow limiter (MCFL) "In Control" light was lit, with the steam bypass and pressure regulating system on the "B" channel. This light being lit indicates that the MCFL is in control, limiting steam flow to the main turbine and condenser through the control and bypass valves. This indication appeared to be erroneous, as reactor power and pressure remained stable. The system contains two channels of pressure regulation, an "A" and a "B" channel, and a failure in either channel could cause the light to illuminate. The licensee developed a troubleshooting team to determine the potential failure modes.
On October 13, 2022, during problem solving for the MCFL "In Control" light, the problem-solving team determined that the "A" channel was operating normally and that the "B" channel would prevent the bypass valves from responding to a pressure perturbation with the steam bypass and regulating system operating on the "B" channel. The control room shifted off the "B" channel to the "A" channel and declared the "B" channel inoperable.
Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.6 requires the main turbine bypass system to be operable with rated power greater than 23.8 percent. When the main turbine bypass system was inoperable, TS 3.7.6, Required Actions A.1 requires that bypass valve operability be restored within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> and Required Action B.1, requires thermal power to be reduced to less than 23.8 percent power within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> If Required Action A.1 is not met. When the "B" channel was in control, the licensee determined that the main turbine bypass system was not operable. Therefore, the licensee violated this TS between October 7 and October 13, 2022, when the required actions were not taken.
Corrective Actions: Immediate corrective actions, troubleshooting, and investigation(s) started after the licensee found the light lit. A multidisciplinary group was established, and the licensee worked multiple courses of actions based on a main failure mode analysis (FMA).
The event was closed when the B flow demand circuit card was replaced on October 30, 2022. After the proper testing and evaluation, the channel B was verified to be working properly.
Corrective Action References:

Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the licensee failed to enter Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.6 in a timely manner when the maximum combined flow limiter (MCFL) In Control light was lit in the Main Control Room on October 7, 2022.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Initiating Events cornerstone, and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors screened the finding against the initiating events screening questions in IMC 0609, Exhibit 1 and answered NO in the transient initiators subsection. Therefore, the finding screened to very low safety significance (Green).
Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.4 - Teamwork: Individuals and work groups communicate and coordinate their activities within and across organizational boundaries to ensure nuclear safety is maintained. Specifically, the operators in the control room did not communicate the potential issue to the relief crew when it was first identified on October 6, 2022, resulting in a delayed response and a failure to comply with TS 3.7.6 in a timely manner.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification (TS) 3.7.6 requires the main turbine bypass system to be operable with rated power greater than 23.8 percent. When the main turbine bypass system was inoperable, TS 3.7.6, Required Actions A.1 requires that bypass valve operability be restored within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> and Required Action B.1, requires thermal power to be reduced to less than 23.8 percent power within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> If Required Action A.1 is not met.
Contrary to the above, on October 7, 2022, the licensee did not comply with TS 3.7.6.
Specifically, the licensee determined that when the "B" channel was in control, the main turbine bypass system was not operable, but the licensee failed to restore the system to an operable status, nor reduce power to less than 23.8 percent, within the allowed completion time. The system was inoperable for 7 days.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
LER 2021-002-00, Core Monitoring System Software Modeling Error Results in Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV NCV 05000440/2022004-03 Open/Closed Not Applicable 71153 Licensee Event Report (LER) 2021-002-00, Core Monitoring System Software Modeling Error Results in Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications (ML21216A344). The inspectors determined that it was not reasonable to foresee or correct the cause discussed in the LER; therefore, no performance deficiency was identified. This condition, a Severity Level IV NCV of TS 3.2.2, Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR), was self-revealed upon review of operational history and General Electric - Hitachi (GEH) Safety Communication SC 21-04, Revision 1, Fuel Support Side Entry Orifice Meta-Stable for 2 Beam Locations in the BWR/6 Reactors. Specifically, during periods on Cycles 17, 18, and 19, Technical Specifications Limiting Condition for Operation 3.2.2, Minimum Critical Power Ratio, was not met, the required action A.1 to restore MCPR to within limits in 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> was not completed, and the subsequent required action B.1 to reduce thermal power to less than 23.8 percent RTP in 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> also was not completed.
Description:
On June 2021, the licensee was informed by GEH of a potential software error and determined later that they had operated in conditions prohibited by TS. The licensee based this determination on a review of operational history and General Electric - Hitachi (GEH)
Safety Communication SC 21-04, Revision 1, issued on June 17, 2021. Perrys review concluded that there were periods between Cycles 17, 18, and 19, when TS 3.2.2, Power Distribution Limits - Minimum Critical Power Ration (MCPR), was not met due to a core monitoring system software modeling error. The error was identified by GEH, and was caused by an underprediction of side entry orifice (SEO) loss coefficient for some fuel bundle locations, which impacted the maximum fraction of the limiting critical power ratio (MFLCPR).
SC 21-04, Revision 0, issued in April 2021, identified a flow pattern that may periodically form under certain core conditions, in which fuel bundle bypass flow is not accurately modeled by the core monitoring software (3DMONICORE). This potential problem would cause 3DMONICORE to underestimate bundle fraction limiting critical power ratio (FLCPR).
GEH has completed the evaluation of the condition to determine reportability under 10 CFR Part 21, and determined it is a reportable condition under 10 CFR 21.21(a)(2), and a transfer of information under 10 CFR 21.21(b). This evaluation established a 0.950 MFLCPR limit for only the two beam locations in the core. This limit, however, can be conservatively applied to the entire core.
On June 17, 2021, GEH revised SC 21-04. Revision 1 provided additional guidance and clarification on the application of the MFLCPR penalty recommended in Revision 0.
Previously, GEH recommended a 0.05 penalty be placed on core wide MFLCPR. Upon further investigation, SC 21-04, Revision 1, recommended that the MFLCPR penalty be calculated via a plant-specific formula, which results in differing penalty values for different core power, flow, and equipment out-of-service conditions.
The inspectors determined that the condition, the level of details used in the vendor calculations, and the basis of the data used in the applied application were beyond the licensees control to identify, predict, or prevent, because it is a legacy vendor design calculation error. The licensee does not have the capability to check these calculations nor the resources to perform an independent review of GEH calculations.
The operating limit MCPR (OLMCPR) is set such that if the plant is operating at the OLMCPR, the most limiting operational transient for the cycle will not result in violation of the safety limit MCPR (SLMCPR). The licensee reviewed the unit operating history and concluded that no limiting or near limiting transients occurred, and therefore, the margin between SLMCPR and OLMCPR was adequate for continued SLMCPR protection.
This instance is reportable under 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B), any operation or condition which was prohibited by the plants TS.
Corrective Actions: As recommended in SC 21-04 (Revision 0 Draft) issued in April 2021, Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP) implemented an administrative limit of maintaining MFLCPR less than or equal to 0.950. PNPP Cycle 19 startup (April 2021), and subsequent operations has maintained MFLCPR less than or equal to 0.950. Also, the licensee generated the Condition Report 2022-08197 on September 28, 2022.
Corrective Action References:
CR 2022-08197, "Fuel Vendor Identified Thermal Limit Non-Conservatism in Analysis,"
September 28, 2022
Performance Assessment:
The NRC determined this violation was not reasonably foreseeable and preventable by the licensee, and therefore, is not a performance deficiency.
Enforcement:
Enforcement Policy Section 2.2.4 states that violations with no associated performance deficiency will be dispositioned using traditional enforcement. Therefore, operating reactor violations with no associated performance deficiencies should be assigned a severity level, as long as the violation meets the criteria described in Section 2.3.2 of the policy for disposition as an NCV.
Severity: Traditional enforcement is being used to disposition this violation with no associated Reactor Oversight Process performance deficiency, per the NRC Enforcement Manual, revision dated January 14, 2022, Section 3.10. The inspectors determined the severity of the violation using Section 6 of the NRC Enforcement Policy, and determined this issue was a SL IV because it most represented the examples in Section 6.1.d. The failure to meet the TS LCO and Action Statement was unknown to the licensee until Safety Communication SC 21-04 was received from GEH, and a review of operational history was performed.
Violation: Technical Specification LCO 3.2.2 requires that all MCPRs shall be greater than or equal to the MCPR operating limits specified in the COLR. LCO 3.2.2, Condition A for any MCPR not within limits requires MCPR(s) to be restored within limits in 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />. LCO 3.2.2, Condition B, states the required action associated completion time for Condition A was not met; the licensee is required to reduce thermal power to less than 23.8 percent RTP within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.
Contrary to the above, during periods on Cycles 17, 18, and 19, Perry found in some instances that MCPR was not within limits for greater than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, and the licensee did not reduce thermal power to less than 23.8 percent RTP within the 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> stipulated by TSs; specifically during the Cycle 18 as explained in the LER, when there were seven instances where MFLCPR (SC 21-04) was greater than 1.0 for longer than six hours. During these instances, the requirements of TS 3.2.2 were not met, and during this time period there were no limiting transients that would be a challenge to the Safety Limit...
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
