SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting an integrated inspection at Byron Station in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. A licensee-identified non-cited violation is documented in report section: 71124.0
List of Findings and Violations
Loss of Feedwater Flow in Mode 3 due to Securing Startup Feedwater Pump on High Inboard Bearing Temperature Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green FIN 05000455/2019003-01 Open/Closed None 71153 A self-revealed finding of very low safety significance (i.e., Green) was identified for the licensees failure to implement an established change in work scope requirements as contained in MA-AA-716-010, Maintenance Planning, Revision 21. Specifically, plant personnel performed a startup feedwater (SUFW) pump coupling alignment using a work order that did not contain steps to perform the alignment or acceptance criteria for the alignment that was performed. This resulted in the pump being returned to service misaligned and ultimately led to a loss of feedwater in Mode 3 when the pump was secured on April 22, 2019, due to high bearing temperatures.

(1)
(Partial)

71153 - Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion Event Report (IP Section 03.02)
The inspectors evaluated the following licensee event reports (LERs):
- (1) LER 05000455/2019-001-00, Manual Actuation of Auxiliary Feedwater Due to High Inboard Motor Bearing Temperature on Startup Feedwater Pump (ADAMS accession:
ML19171A178). The circumstances surrounding this LER are documented in the Inspection Results Section.
INSPECTION RESULTS
Licensee-Identified Non-Cited Violation 71124.03 This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Violation: Title 10 CFR 20.1703(c)(4)(iii) requires the licensee to implement and maintain a respiratory protection program that includes written procedures regarding the fit testing of respirators.
RP-AA-444, Controlled Negative Pressure (CNP) Fit Testing, Revision 8, provides the written procedures regarding the fit testing of respirators. Step 4.3 states that a daily calibration is to be performed when the instrument is being used. Step 4.7.2.3 directs the fit test protocol to be selected for testing a fit factor of 1000.
Contrary to the above, from January 1, 2017 through January 11, 2018, the licensee failed to implement its respiratory protection program procedure RP-AA-444 regarding the fit testing of respirators. Specifically, on 26 occurrences, either the fit test protocol was not selected for testing a fit factor of 1000 or the daily calibration was not performed as required by procedure steps 4.3 and 4.7.2.3.
Significance/Severity: Green. The significance was evaluated in accordance with IMC 609 Appendix C Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because:
- (1) it did not involve as-low-as-reasonably-achievable planning or work controls,
- (2) there was no overexposure,
- (3) there was no substantial potential for an overexposure, and
- (4) the ability to assess dose was not compromised.
Corrective Action References: AR 04092760
Observation: Adverse Trend in Check Source Failures in Area Radiation and Process Radiation Monitors 71152 Inspectors performed a review of plant issues, particularly those entered into the licensee's Corrective Action Program (CAP), associated with check source failures in radiation monitors at the site. The radiation monitoring system provides a means to inform personnel of liquid and airborne radiation levels in the plant. This information allows operators to make decisions concerning operation and personnel deployment during normal and accident conditions. A check source failure in a radiation monitor prevents the monitor from performing as intended until the issue is resolved. Process and effluent radiological monitoring is described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Section 11.5.
Area radiation monitoring is described in the UFSAR Section 12.3.4. Radiation monitors are governed by various requirements in either the station's Technical Specifications or the station's Technical Requirements Manual.
During their review, inspectors noted that since November of 2018, several condition reports were generated in the licensee's CAP identifying a trend in check source failures.
Specifically,
- AR 04191050, Potential Trend Identified on Check Source Failures, dated November, 2, 2018
- AR 04215048, Trend on Check Source Failures, dated January 29, 2019
- AR 04216838, Ops-Focus - Radiological Monitor Issues, dated February 3, 2019
- AR 04266021, Trend IR - Check Source Failures, dated July 22, 2019
The inspectors also noted that of the completed actions generated from the condition reports written, none have had an appreciable effect on the overall trend in check source failures.
Several other actions, such as reviewing the overall radiation monitor maintenance strategy or revising preventive maintenance work orders to proactively correct one common equipment deficiency known to cause a check source failure, have repeatedly been rescheduled due to competing site priorities. These actions are not scheduled for completion until November and December of 2019, respectively. As noted in AR 04216838, in addition to an overall reduced system reliability, the check source failures would pose a challenge to operators during a loss of coolant accident outside of containment where operators use these radiation monitors to aid in determining the leak location in a timely manner.
One aspect of the problem identification and resolution inspection procedure is for the inspectors to evaluate the effectiveness of the licensee CAP in identifying, prioritizing, evaluating, and correcting problems. The licensee CAP procedure states, in part, that the purpose of the CAP is to promote continuous improvement through organizational learning and provide direction on the resolution and documentation of undesirable conditions. The licensee has repeatedly identified and documented the issue with check source failures in the CAP; however, the organization continues to be challenged with reaching a resolution.
Additionally, the extension of due dates for various actions will have resulted in no meaningful action taken to address the issue in almost a year since the original trend was identified. The absence of action gives the appearance that the issue has stalled out in the CAP, while continuing to generate additional trending condition reports, ultimately undermining the stated purpose of the program.
The licensee captured the inspector's observation in AR 04280647.
Loss of Feedwater Flow in Mode 3 due to Securing Startup Feedwater Pump on High Inboard Bearing Temperature Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events
Green FIN 05000455/2019003-01 Open/Closed
None 71153 A self-revealed finding of very low safety significance (i.e., Green) was identified for the licensees failure to implement an established change in work scope requirements as contained in MA-AA-716-010, Maintenance Planning, Revision 21. Specifically, plant personnel performed a startup feedwater (SUFW) pump coupling alignment using a work order that did not contain steps to perform the alignment or acceptance criteria for the alignment that was performed. This resulted in the pump being returned to service misaligned and ultimately led to a loss of feedwater in Mode 3 when the pump was secured on April 22, 2019, due to high bearing temperatures.
Description:
On April 22, 2019, while Unit 2 was in Mode 3 and heating up to normal operating pressure and temperature following the refueling outage (B2R21), the inboard motor bearing temperature for the SUFW experienced elevated temperatures that caused operators to manually secure the pump. In addition to the SUFW pump being secured, the motor driven feedwater pump had not been filled and vented, and therefore was not available to the operators. The resulting condition led to a loss of feedwater to the steam generators. With neither the SUFW pump or the motor driven feedwater pump available, operators started the motor driven auxiliary feedwater pump per procedure to restore feedwater.
The licensee conducted a Corrective Action Program Evaluation (CAPE) and through it determined that the apparent cause of the high inboard motor bearing temperature was pump misalignment. The last performed alignment on the pump occurred in December, 2013, under work order (WO) 01304318-01. The licensee's evaluation concluded that, although the pump was aligned using WO 01304318-01, the scope of the WO did not include steps to perform a pump alignment. Additionally, acceptance criteria for the pump alignment were not included in the WO.
The inspectors reviewed MA-AA-716-010 and determined that in accordance with Attachment 1, Example of Work Package Revision Guidelines, the work order should have been revised to address the change in scope. Specifically, the procedure states, in part, that: If the answer to any of the following is Yes, then return work package to Maintenance Planning or planning qualified individual to process a major revision. Step 9 of the list then states:
- Do additions/deletions to changes affect work quality, increase work scope, affect specified tests, changes to Clearance Orders, or affect ASME Code items?
The inspectors determined that performing a pump alignment under WO 01304318-01 resulted in an increase of work scope and, as such, the work order should have been revised prior to use to provide the applicable guidance for a proper pump alignment.
Licensee Event Report (LER) 0500455/2019-001-00 Manual Actuation of Auxiliary Feedwater Due to High Inboard Motor Bearing Temperature on Startup Feedwater Pump was submitted by the licensee for this event.
Corrective Actions: The immediate corrective active following the securing of the pump included realigning the pump. Additionally, the licensee revised the procedure for the pump to include generic criteria for acceptable coupling alignment.
Corrective Action References: AR 4242250, Manual Actuation of Auxiliary Feedwater Due to High Inboard Motor Bearing Temperature on Startup Feedwater Pump
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The failure to execute established change in work scope requirements as prescribed by MA-AA-716-010, Maintenance Planning, was a performance deficiency. Specifically, step 9 of Attachment 1 required that in the case of an increase of work scope, the work package needed to be revised. The failure to update the work order led to a coupling alignment on the SUFW pump using a work order that did not contain steps to perform the alignment or acceptance criteria for the alignment that was performed.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Protection Against External Factors 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. Specifically, the misalignment in the SUFW pump led to it being secured on April 22, 2019 due to high bearing temperatures, this in conjunction with the motor driven feedwater pump not being available led to a loss of feedwater in Mode 3. Feedwater was restored upon the manual start of the motor driven auxiliary feedwater pump.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (i.e., Green) because the performance deficiency did not cause both a reactor trip and the loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: None because the performance deficiency occurred in 2013 and is therefore not reflective of current performance.
Enforcement:
Inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this finding.
