EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Seabrook Generating Station, Unit 1 NRC Inspection Report 50-443/97 09 The report covers a six day inspection conducted by a regional engineering inspector.
Maintenance j
Based on the inspector's review of documents re, lated to Seabrook Station's M&TE calibration program "ocluding procedures, root cause analysis, and engineering evaluation)
and on his interviews of the M&TE staff, the inspector concluded that:
The MixTE calibration program at Seabrook Station is acceptable with the exception
of the noted violations. (Section M3.1)
The instrumentation and control (l&C) technician's use of procedures and equipment
to perform calibrations of M&TE is acceptable. Also, the M&TE morning meetings are useful for discussing current and future M&TE issues. These meetings allow for
- the open exchange of ideas in the M&TE laboratory. (Section M4.1)

Reoort Details 11. Maintenance M3 Maintenance Procedures and Documentation M3.1 Measurina and Test Eauioment (M&TE) Procedure and Document Review a.
Insoection Scoce (35750)
The purpose of this inspection was to evaluate and determine the adequacy of the M&TE calibration program at Seabrook Station. The inspector reviewed the administrative procedure that provides control of calibrating M&TE, reviewed set point methodology, and reviewed severalissues related to the adequacy of the M&TE calibration program. The inspector also reviewed the M&TE Change Management Plan including root cause analysis and reviewed = elected station operating procedures, b.
Observations and Findinos The inspector found that the M&TE calibration program at Seabrook Station was acceptable with the exception of the violations outlined in section M3.2 and the unresolved issue associated with section M3.5. The inspector reviewed several M&TE calibration issues as discussed in sections M3.3, M3.4, M3.6, M3.7, M3.8, M3.9, and M4.1 to substantiate that an acceptable M&TE program was in place at Seabrook Station, c.
Conclusions The inspector concluded that the M&TE calibration program at Seabrook Station was acceptable with the exception of the noted violations and an unresolved issue.
M3.2 Procedure MA 2.3 Review a.
Insoection Scope (35750)
The inspector reviewed procedure MA 2.3, " Control and Calibration of Measuring and Test Equipment," Revision 15, to determine implementation of accuracy ratios between the procedure and the UFSAR. The inspector also reviewed procedure -
MA 2.3 to determine its adequacy.
b Observations and Findinas The inspector found differences between how the UFSAR and the implementing procedures applied M&TE accuracy ratios. The UFSAR, section 17.2.12.3 required a 4:1 accuracy ratio to be maintained from the primary standard to the end use equipment and procedure MA 2.3 required a 4:1 accuracy ratio to be maintained from the primary standard to the field standard. The inspector confirmed that-procedure MA 2.3 had not been updated to control M&TE accuracies from primary to end use equipment as stated in the UFSAR. Furthermore, the inspector noted

2 that procedure MA 2.3 had been previously changed without the licensee performing a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation. The inspector determined that the licensee changed procedures as described in the UFSAR and failed to perform a written safety evaluation to determine that the change did not involve an unreviewed safety question. Specifically, the licensee changed procedure MA 2.3 and failed to perform a written safety evaluation to determine that no unreviewed safety question existed. This was a violation against 10 CFR 50.59(b)(1). (VIO 50-443/97 09 01)
The inspector also found that procedure MA 2.3 was inadequate in that it did not require a formal evaluation of the impact of revised M&TE on the end use equipment or engineering verification. The inspector found that the licensee's control of M&TE allowed revisions to M&TE without formal review and is not consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion Xil, " Control of Measurement and Test Equipment" and with UFSAR Section 17.2.12.3,
" Calibration," which states, "Less accurate standards may be acceptable when the use of such standards and the basis of calibration acceptance is authorized and documented." (VIO 50-443/97 09-02)
c.
Conclusions The inspector concluded that procedure MA 2.3 and the UFSAR differed in how they apply M&TE accuracy ratios and that procedure MA 2.3 was inadequate in that it allowed M&TE to be accepted without engineering or end use evaluations.
M3.3 Instrument Setogint Document Review a.
Insoection Scooe (35750)
The inspector reviewed document number 39140, " Instrument Setpoint,"
Revision 1, to verify if M&TE accuracy assumptions from the M&TE to eno use equipment was bounding for setpoint calculations, b.
Observations and Findinas The inspector verified that the M&TE accuracy assumptions from the M&TE to end use equipment was bounding for setpoint calculations. The inspector found that section 5.5.1, " Measuring and Test Equipment Accuracy" maintained the 4:1 accuracy ratio from the primary standard to end use equipment and provided a basis for bounding setpoint calculations. The inspector noted variables in the setpoint calculation equation allowed for M&TE accuracy assumptions and bounds setpoint calculations. The inspectar dete mined that this was acceptable.
c.
.Qpoclusions The inspector concluded that M&TE accuracy assumptions from the M&TE to end use equipment was bounded within setpoint calculations.

M3.4 Calibration of Eouloment by Non Aooroved Subtler Vendors
,
a.
insoection Scoce (35750)
The inspector reviewed the licensee's actions of calibrating some equipment by non-approved subtier vendors to determine if this was a wide spread problem at Seabrook Station.
b.
Observations and Findinag The inspector found that there was no wide spread problem of equipment being calibrated by non-approved subtler vendors at Seabrook Station. The inspector reviewed adverse condition report (ACR) 961281, and found that the instance in which this occurred was isolated to one vendor. ACR 961281 identified accelerometers being shipped to Hayes instruments for calibration and Hayes Instruments forwarding the devices to their original manufacturer for calibration.
The licensee identified s 7 pieces of equipment that was calibrated by a non-approved subtier vendor, in all cases, the calibration was performed by the original
equipment manufacturer to the equipments specifications. Additionally, the inspector found that the purchase order provides control of what vendor is authorized to calibrate equipment and the receipt inspection program provided checks and balances to determine if a non approved vendor was used. The
Inspector found no further instances of equipment being calibrated by a non-approved vendor, c.
Conclusions The inspector concluded that there was no generic problem with non-approved equipment calibration at Seabrook Station and acceptable equipment calibration controls were in place.

M4 Maintenance Staff Knowledge and Performance M4.1 Witness Calibration of M&TE and Observation of Mornina Meetina a.
Insoection Scopo (36750)
The inspector witnessed the calibration of a selected piece of M&TE equipment to evaluate staff knowledge of the calibration process. The inspector also observed a M&TE morning meeting to determine if relevant M&TE issues were discussed and if the M&TE staff had a questioning attitude toward each other and the M&TE supervisor, b.
Obseryations and FindiDat The inspector found that the M&TE staff had sufficient knowledge of the calibration process. The inspector randomly selected a Fluke 8810A Digital Multimeter (ID# FLS 756) to witness the M&TE calibration process. The calibration was performed by an instrument and control (l&C) technician who used the appropriate procedure (ID0601.071, Revision 3) for the equipment being calibrated to begin the calibration process. The inspector reviewed the procedure and found that the appropriate documentation and procedural steps were in place to perform an acceptable calibration of the selected M&TE. The l&C technician properly warmed-up the calibration standards and equipment to be calibrated, determined and recorded proper environmental conditions, determined if the 4:1 accuracy ratio was being maintained between the primary standard and end use equipment, and selected the appropriate data forms to record the parameters of the equipment being calibrated. The inspector noted that all primary standards used for this calibration had valid calibration stickers. The inspector found that the l&C technician was knowledgeable about the procedure and the equipment used to calibrate the M&TE.
The inspector also noted that proper procedural steps were in place to disposition primary standards that do not meet the 4:1 criteria. Discussions with other l&C technicians reveled that the licensees approach tu M&TE calibration process was uniform. The inspector concluded that the approach to the calibration for this particular piece of M&TE was acceptable.
The inspector found that the M&TE morning meetings wcre useful for information exchange of relevant M&TE issues and that the M&TE staff had a questioning attitude toward each other and the M&TE supervisor. On December 17,1997 the inspector observed a M&TE morning meeting which is said to occur every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. When necessary, ad hoc meetings were called by the l
M&TE supervisor. The meeting was attended by seven M&TE personnel (the M&TE
supervisor, four technicians, and two administrative assistants). The inspector noted that the meeting provided pertinent information to the M&TE staff concerning current and future issues. Issues covered in this meeting concerned plant status, training, current ACR status, equipment needs, and personnelissues. Tha inspector noted that M&TE I&C technicians and administrative assistants freely voiced opinions. They also showed a questioning attitude toward each other and the

8 M&TE supervisor. The M&TE supervisor responded to the staff appropriately. The inspector determined that these meetings are useful for the M&TE staff and are
'
effective at keeping communications open between the staff and management.
c.
Conclusions The inspector concluded that the M&TE l&C technician's use of procedures and equipment to perform calibrations of M&TE was acceptable. The inspector also
- ~
concluded that the M&TE morning meetings were useful for discussing current and future M&TE issues and these meetings allowed for open exchange of ideas in the M&TE laboratory.

.
Primary Standards shall have an accuracy offour times the required accuracy of the end use equipment being calibrated Less accurate standards are acceptable u hen use the use ofsuch
'
standards, and the basis of cahbration acceptance is authori:ed and documented NAQA Section 12.2.4.3 Requirements:
.
Primary standards shall have an accuracy of at leastfour times the required accuracy of the end use equipment being cahbrated Less accurate cahbration standards may be acceptable when the use of such standards, and the basis of calibration acceptance, are authorized

Ensures that the UFSAR andNAQA requirementsfor a 4 : I ratio are met (primary standard toficid standard).
lI'here the 4:1 criterion is not met, the cahbration tolerance apphed to thefield standard is reduced (guard banding) to provide an equivalent cahbration.
Engineering Evaluation SS - EV - 97 - 0021:
.
Assess the safety sigmficance of the reportedM & TE cahbration discrepancies.
Select a representative safety sigmficant sample population to provide reasonable assurance.

Conclusions:
The evaluation demonstrated that the Identified hi & TE discrepancies do not have safety significance, that a 10 CFR 50.59 safety evaluation is not required as the evaluation did not identify the necessity to make changes to thefacility orprocedures as describedin the UFSAR, perform tests or experiments not descrlhed in the UFSAR, change the Operating License or require the implementation of a setpoint change or recalibration. None of the previously identifled hI & TE discrepancies affect the margin ofsafety.
