SUBJECT: BRAIDWOOD STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2-NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT AND EXERCISE OF ENFORCEMENT DISCRETION 05000456/2017001 AND 05000457/2017001

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On March 31, 2017, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an integrated inspection at your Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2. On April 28, 2017, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with the Site Vice President, Ms. M. Marchionda, and other members of your staff. The inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report. A violation of the licensee's current site-specific licensing basis for tornado-generated missile protection was identified. Because this violation was identified during the discretionary period discussed in Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 15-002, "Enforcement Discretion for Tornado Missile Protection Noncompliance," Revision 1, and because the licensee implemented interim compensatory measures and has planned final corrective actions, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion by not issuing an enforcement action for the underlying 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control" violation. Discretion for continued operation has previously been permitted on an interim basis and is discussed in NRC Inspection Report 05000456/2016002; 05000457/2016002. The NRC inspectors did not identify any additional findings or violations of more than minor significance. 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 10 CFR 2.390, "Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding."

Sincerely,/RA/

Eric R. Duncan, Chief Branch 3 Division of Reactor Projects Docket Nos. 50-456; 50-457 License Nos. NPF-72; NPF-77

SUMMARY

Inspection Report (IR) 05000456/2017001; 05000457/2017001; 01/01/2017 - 03/31/2017; Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2; Routine Quarterly Integrated Inspection Report. This report covers a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by regional inspectors. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 6, dated July 2016. NRC-Identified and Self-Revealed Findings None. Licensee-Identified Violations A violation of the licensee's current site-specific licensing basis for tornado-generated missile protection was identified. Because this violation was identified during the discretionary period discussed in Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 15-002, "Enforcement Discretion for Tornado Missile Protection Noncompliance," Revision 1, and because the licensee implemented interim compensatory measures and has planned final corrective actions, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion by not issuing an enforcement action for the underlying 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control" violation. This violation is discussed in Section 4OA3.2.

Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, and Emergency Preparedness

1R01 Adverse Weather Protection

.1 Readiness for Impending Adverse Weather Condition-Severe Thunderstorm and High Wind Conditions

a. Inspection Scope

During the week ending on March 10, 2017, the licensee's facility experienced periods of severe thunderstorms and high winds. The inspectors observed the licensee's preparations and planning for the onset of the adverse weather. The inspectors reviewed licensee procedures and discussed potential compensatory measures with control room personnel. The inspectors focused on plant management's actions for implementing the station's procedures for ensuring adequate personnel for safe plant operation and emergency response would be available. The inspectors conducted a visual inspection of the site, including walkdowns of various plant structures and systems to check for maintenance or other apparent deficiencies that could affect system operations during the severe weather conditions. The inspectors also reviewed corrective action program (CAP) items to verify that the licensee was identifying adverse weather issues at an appropriate threshold and entering them into their CAP in accordance with station corrective action procedures. These reviews by the inspectors constituted a single readiness for impending adverse weather condition inspection sample as defined in Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R04 Equipment Alignment

.1 Quarterly Partial System Alignment Verifications

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed partial system physical alignment verifications of the following risk-significant systems:

  • Essential Service Water (SX) Train 2B with SX Train 2A out-of-service (OOS) for Inservice Testing (IST) during the week ending February 4, 2017;
  • Component Cooling (CC) Water Trains 2A and 2B with the common CC heat exchanger OOS and unavailable for planned maintenance during the week ending March 4, 2017; and
  • Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) 2B with EDG 2A OOS for a planned maintenance outage during the week ending March 11, 2017. The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the Reactor Safety Cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could impact the function of the system and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), Technical Specification (TS) requirements, work orders (WOs), issue reports (IRs), and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of performing their intended functions.

The inspectors also walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the components and observed operating parameters of equipment to verify that there were no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the CAP with the appropriate significance characterization. These activities by the inspectors constituted four partial system alignment verification inspection samples as defined in IP 71111.04-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R05 Fire Protection

.1 Quarterly Fire Protection Zone Inspections

.4 Radiological Effluent Technical Specification/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Radiological Effluent Occurrences

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors sampled licensee submittals for the Radiological Effluent Technical Specification/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Radiological Effluent Occurrences PI for the period from January 2016 through December 2016 for Units 1 and 2. The inspectors used PI definitions and guidance contained in NEI 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Revision 7, dated August 31, 2013, to determine the accuracy of the PI data reported during those periods. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's CAP database and selected individual reports generated since this indicator was last reviewed to identify any potential occurrences such as unmonitored, uncontrolled, or improperly calculated effluent releases that may have impacted offsite dose. The inspectors reviewed gaseous effluent summary data and the results of associated offsite dose calculations for selected dates to determine if indicator results were accurately reported. The inspectors also reviewed the licensee's methods for quantifying gaseous and liquid effluents and determining effluent dose. These reviews by the inspectors constituted a single Radiological Effluent Technical Specification/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual radiological effluent occurrences inspection sample as defined in IP 71151-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems

.1 Routine Review of Items Entered into the Corrective Action Program

a. Inspection Scope

As part of the various baseline IPs discussed in previous sections of this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify they were being entered into the licensee's CAP at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and addressed. Attributes reviewed included: identification of the problem was complete and accurate; timeliness was commensurate with the safety significance; evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent-of-condition reviews, and previous occurrences reviews were proper and adequate; and that the classification, prioritization, focus, and timeliness of corrective actions were commensurate with safety and sufficient to prevent recurrence of the issue. Minor issues entered into the licensee's CAP as a result of the inspectors' observations are included in the Attachment to this report. These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure they were considered an integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter and documented in Section 1 of this report.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews

a. Inspection Scope

In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the licensee's CAP. This review was accomplished through inspection of the station's daily CR packages. These daily reviews were performed by procedure as part of the inspectors' daily plant status monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Follow-Up Sample For In-Depth Review:

(Closed) Unresolved Item 05000456/2016007-01 - 05000457/2016007-01; Identification of Significant Conditions Adverse to Quality in Accordance with the Quality Assurance Topical Report

a. Inspection Scope

During the 2016 Problem Identification & Resolution (PI&R) inspection at Braidwood Station (NRC IR 05000456/2016007 - 05000457/2016007; ADAMS Accession No.

ML16267A152), the inspectors identified an unresolved item (URI) regarding the identification of significant conditions adverse to quality (SCAQs). This URI involved two distinct issues. The inspectors questioned whether the licensee's CAP, as implemented through procedures PI-AA-125, "Corrective Action Program," and PI-AA-120, "Issue Identification and Resolution," adequately identified SCAQs as delineated in the licensee's Quality Assurance Topical Report (QATR), NO-AA-10. In addition, the inspectors questioned whether an oil leak identified in the 1B SX pump seal on December 30, 2013, and which recurred on November 18, 2014, met the definition of an SCAQ as defined in the licensee's QATR. This in-depth review inspection sample continued and completed the inspectors' review of the licensee's processes and procedures to determine if the licensee had been consistent with the provisions of their QATR related to the identification of SCAQs, and as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, "Quality Assurance Program." b. Background The licensee's CAP is described in procedures PI-AA-125 and PI-AA-120. In the CAP issue screening and classification process a significance level (SL) is determined for a documented issue that was based on the consequences of the event. An investigation class is also established, utilizing a matrix involving both SL and the likelihood of the event/issue. In total, the licensee's CAP delineates five different SLs, with SLs 1 and 2 being the most significant events/issues. Likelihood was defined by the licensee as pertaining to both the uncertainty regarding the event/issue cause and the uncertainty regarding the corrective actions. Uncertainty was directly related to the complexity of the event/issue. The more complex an event/issue was, then the greater the uncertainty and the need to utilize formal analysis tools. A corrective action to prevent recurrence (CAPR) by the licensee's process was assigned to prevent recurrence/repetition of the root cause(s) of an event/issue and stemmed only from a formal root cause evaluation (RCE). During their review of this process in the 2016 PI&R inspection, the inspectors noted that the QATR SCAQ definition was not being used to determine whether a RCE was needed. As a result, the licensee's procedures and CAP processes appeared to allow for items meeting the definition of an SCAQ to be addressed by simple corrective actions (CAs), which might not necessarily prevent issue/event recurrence as was the case for a CAPR. Prior to September 4, 2002, the licensee implemented a process that linked certain plant events to SCAQs based on the QATR SCAQ definition. Appendix D of the licensee's QATR defined an SCAQ as a condition "which, if left uncorrected, could have a serious effect on safety or operability." Prior to 2002, examples of SCAQs provided in the licensee's CAP procedures and controlling documents included:

  • Safety system functional failures;
  • Common mode failures;
  • Widespread program or organization breakdown in an area such as design, analysis, operation, maintenance, tests, procedures, or training that were likely to cause a significant event. Additionally, licensee CAP procedures directly linked certain event/issue SLs or conditions to both SCAQs and conditions adverse to quality (CAQs). Versions of licensee CAP implementing procedures directly linked SL 1, or both SL 1 and SL 2, events/issues to SCAQs. Following September 4, 2002, the licensee revised their CAP process to utilize the graded approach of SL and likelihood as previously described. c. Observations During the inspectors' in-depth review and follow up of this issue, a prominent example of the vulnerability in the licensee's CAP explicitly related to the inspectors' questions from the 2016 PI&R inspection was identified. An October 2005 event/issue involving a bryozoa (a species of aquatic invertebrate biologic) infestation was not identified as an SCAQ by the licensee and, as a result, no corresponding CAPRs were established.

Consequently, in September 2008 the accumulation of bryozoan colonies in the essential service water (SX) and main circulating water system pump intake bays resulted in SX system strainers being fouled resulting in a challenge to the reliability and operability of the SX system. A finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action Program," were identified by inspectors for this issue (NRC IR 05000456/2009003 - 05000457/2009003; ADAMS Accession No. ML092260344). In reviewing the circumstances surrounding this finding and the associated NCV, the inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was not related to licensee's implementation of their CAP. The process within the licensee's CAP had been dutifully followed in this case. Rather, the inspectors concluded that the performance deficiency was related to a vulnerability in the licensee's CAP itself, which ultimately resulted in the event/issue recurring in 2008 after it had been first identified and corrective actions taken in 2005.

d. Findings

(1) (Closed) Unresolved Item 05000456/2016007-01; 05000457/2016007: Identification of Significant Condition Adverse to Quality in Accordance with the Quality Assurance Topical Report Criterion II, "Quality Assurance Program," of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, specifies that a quality assurance program be established, and that this program be documented by written policies, procedures, or instructions. Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, requires that measures be established to assure that CAQs are promptly identified and corrected. For SCAQs, Criterion XVI also requires that the measures assure that the cause of the condition is determined; that corrective actions are taken to preclude repetition; and that the identification of the SCAQ, the cause of the condition, and the corrective actions taken are documented and reported to appropriate levels of licensee management. To establish and implement a CAP that met these requirements the license developed several written documents, most notably their QATR. Chapter 16 of the QATR described how the licensee identified and corrected SCAQs and CAQs. Provisions in this chapter of the QATR included:

  • In the "General Requirements" of Section 2.1: Measures are required to assure that the cause of any significant condition adverse to quality is determined and takes corrective actions to prevent recurrence;
  • From the "Glossary of Terms" contained in Appendix D of the QATR: A significant condition adverse to quality is one which, if left uncorrected, could have a serious effect on safety or operability. The requirements specified in the QATR are implemented by licensee procedures PI-AA-125 and PI-AA-120. During the 2016 PI&R inspection, the inspectors reviewed these procedures to further understand how the licensee identified SCAQs and established CAPRs to address them. During their review of the licensee's CAP process, the inspectors noted that the definition of a SCAQ was not necessarily being used to trigger a formal RCE. The inspectors further noted that the licensee's CAP process allowed an event/issue that met their definition of a SCAQ to be addressed by CAs, rather than CAPRs. This distinction within the licensee's process was significant because the licensee's procedures stated that a CAPR was assigned to prevent the recurrence of the root cause(s) of an event/issue stemming from a formal RCE. While a CA could be used to prevent recurrence of an issue, typically the CAPR was used to prevent recurrence. As a result, the inspectors questioned whether the CAP implementing procedures, PI-AA-125 and PI-AA-120, prescribed an adequate process that allowed for identification of all events/issues that met the SCAQ definition, and whether CAPRs would actually be established and implemented for all such events/issues to prevent their recurrence. Discussions with licensee staff and management personnel confirmed that they do not currently use their definition for SCAQs to implement their CAP process. In discussions with the inspectors, the licensee offered the following:
  • The licensee implemented a graded approach using SL and likelihood (which included risk and uncertainty) which assured that the level of licensee resources and rigor applied appropriately followed their CAP procedural requirements;
  • The licensee's graded approach, along with a well-trained management team that has nuclear safety and conservative decision-making as a primary focus, provided for an effective CAP; and
  • Even if a CAPR was not issued to address an event/issue, CAs would prevent recurrence of these events/issues. In response to the inspector's questions, the licensee revised procedures PI-AA-125 and PI-AA-120 to formally delineate that for a cause determined through a RCE or a Corrective Action Program Evaluation (CAPE) of a SL 1-3 issue, a CA would be clearly identified that would preclude repetition of the identified cause. This was done in order to demonstrate compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI requirements.

The inspectors reviewed the change and determined that although the action would not be labeled as a CAPR, it would accomplish the same function since it would be intended to preclude repetition, and it would be documented and evaluated by management. Additionally, during the review the inspectors identified a gap in the CAP procedures.

Specifically, the licensee's procedures did not explicitly require licensee management to approve of CA due date extensions or changes of intent when those CAs were being credited to preclude repetition. The licensee entered this identified issue into their CAP as IR 3991681. The inspectors discussed this issue with the appropriate NRC staff and managers in both NRC Region III and headquarters. From these discussions it was concluded that 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Actions," required different levels of licensee review and action for SCAQs and CAQs. For SCAQs, the issue must be documented in writing, evaluated by an appropriate level of licensee management, and the cause had to be determined and precluded from repetition. In contrast, at the time of the PI&R inspection, the licensee's CAP process did not specify that any type of CA was required to preclude repetition, only CAPRs had the requirement to preclude repetition. As a result of their review, the inspectors determined that at the time of the PI&R, licensee procedures PI-AA-125 and PI-AA-120 did not specifically ensure that measures were taken to assure that the cause(s) of any SCAQ, as defined in the licensee's QATR, were determined and that corrective actions were being taken to prevent recurrence. This was contrary to the requirements of Criterion II, "Quality Assurance Program," of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, which specifies that a quality assurance program be established, and that this program be documented by written policies, procedures, or instructions. If left uncorrected, this issue could have constituted a violation of more than minor safety significance. However, because the licensee took actions during the inspectors' reviews to clarify the intent of their CAP procedures and addressed the inspectors' concerns, the issue was determined to be of only minor safety significance, and not subject to formal enforcement action in accordance with Section 2.3.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. Finally, as part of their review the inspectors also examined whether an oil leak identified in the 1B SX pump seal on December 30, 2013, and which recurred on November 18, 2014, met the definition of an SCAQ as defined in the licensee's QATR. During their examination of this issue the inspectors concluded that the 1B SX Pump's ability to perform its specified safety function had been maintained. As a result, the issue did not constitute a SCAQ and no additional follow-up was warranted. This URI is closed.

4OA3 Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000456/2015-003-00; 05000457/2015-003-00: Unanalyzed Condition Due to a Design Deficiency with Pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valve Circuitry that Could Prevent Valve Manual Closure to Mitigate Spurious Operation

a. Inspection Scope

On August 20, 2015, during an NRC Triennial Fire Protection inspection, the inspectors identified a design deficiency associated with the pressurizer PORV block valve control circuitry. A circuit deficiency for certain fires in the main control room or cable spreading rooms was identified as having the potential to prevent the pressurizer PORV block valves from being locally closed at their local control switch. This condition was reported by the licensee to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(ii)(B) as an event or condition that resulted in the plant being in an unanalyzed condition that significantly degraded plant safety. The licensee had entered this event into their CAP as IR 2544447, and the inspectors had previously dispositioned the event as a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of the Braidwood Station Operating License, Condition 2E, regarding fire protection program requirements (NRC IR 05000456/2015007 - 05000457/2015007; ADAMS Accession No. ML15279A618). In addition to those actions previously performed, in response to receipt of this licensee event report (LER) the inspectors completed additional reviews that included, but were not limited to:

  • The potential for any generic issues, including those potentially requiring reporting under 10 CFR Part 21;
  • The licensee's completed cause evaluation reports and additional corrective actions associated with the issues; and
  • The accuracy of the information provided by the licensee in the LER. This LER is closed.

This event follow-up review by the inspectors constituted a single inspection sample as defined in IP 71153-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000456/2016-002-00; 05000457/2016-002-00: Inadequate Protection from Tornado Missiles Identified Due to Non-Conforming Design Conditions

a. Inspection Scope

On May 25, 2016, the licensee identified non-conforming conditions in the plant as-built configuration and condition such that specific TS equipment on both units was considered to not be adequately protected from tornado missiles as required by the current design and licensing basis. Specific vulnerabilities included:

  • Ventilation openings in the wall that separated the nonsafety-related turbine building from the safety-related auxiliary building;
  • Exhaust vents for the diesel-driven auxiliary feedwater (AF) pump engines not having adequate protection; and

A list of specific SSCs adversely effected and discussed in the LER included:

  • Both trains of control room ventilation for a shared Unit 1 and Unit 2 control room;
  • Unit 1 Division 11 and Unit 2 Division 21 battery chargers and associated DC buses;
  • Unit 1 112/114 and Unit 2 212/214 engineered safeguard feature inverters;
  • Main control room radiation monitors 0PR31J, 0PR32J, 0PR33J, and 0PR34J;
  • Unit 1 and Unit 2 diesel-driven AF trains; and
  • The Unit 1 and Unit 2 RWSTs. The inspectors reviewed the LER to ensure it was reported accurately in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, (10 CFR) Part 50.73 reporting requirements. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review by the inspectors constituted a single inspection sample as defined in IP 71153-05.

b. Findings

A finding and an associated violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," was identified based upon the lack of adequate tornado missile protection for the safety-related equipment listed above. The finding was determined to be less than red (i.e., high safety significance) based on a generic and bounding risk evaluation performed by the NRC in support of the resolution of tornado-generated missile non-compliances. The bounding risk evaluation is discussed in NRC Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 15-002, Revision 1, Enforcement Discretion for Tornado-Generated Missile Protection Non-Compliance (ADAMS Accession No. ML14114A556). Because the finding and violation were identified during the discretion period covered by Enforcement Guidance Memorandum 15-002, Revision 0 and Revision 1 and because the licensee has implemented interim corrective actions and has final corrective actions planned, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion by not issuing an enforcement action. The NRC has previously exercised enforcement discretion for continued operation for an interim period as discussed in NRC IR 05000456/2016002; 05000457/2016002 (ADAMS Accession No. ML16209A139).

.3 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000456/2016-003-00:

Indication in Control Rod Drive Mechanism Nozzle Weld Due to Embedded Flaws Opening Up from Thermal and Pressure Stresses During Operation

a. Inspection Scope

On October 2, 2016, while performing a liquid penetrant examination on the weld build up for Control Rod Drive Mechanism (CRDM) Penetration No. 69 during the licensee's Unit 1 refueling outage, two rejectable rounded indications were documented. Because the indications did not meet the acceptance criteria of the ASME Code to remain in-service without repair, the condition was reported by the licensee to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(ii)(A) as an event or condition that results in the condition of the plant, including its principal safety barriers, being seriously degraded.

The examination of the embedded flaw repair in CRDM Penetration No. 69 was performed in accordance with the licensee's established inservice inspection (ISI)program, which requires liquid penetrant examination of embedded flaw weld repairs every refueling outage. There was no indication of through wall leakage observed during the licensee's examinations. Actions to repair both indications in accordance with applicable ASME Code requirements were completed on October 9, 2016. Based on industry experience, the licensee attributed the cause of the indications to existing mechanical discontinuities/minor subsurface voids opening up the weld surface due to thermal and/or pressure stresses experienced in the normal course of plant operation. The licensee had entered this event into their CAP as IR 2723199, and the licensee's activities regarding this event had been monitored by the inspectors as part of their RFO ISI reviews documented in NRC IR 05000456/2016004;05000457/2016004 (ADAMS Accession No. ML17030A092). In addition to those actions previously performed, in response to receipt of this LER the inspectors completed additional reviews that included, but were not limited to:

  • The potential for any generic issues, including those potentially requiring reporting under 10 CFR Part 21;
  • The licensee's completed cause evaluation reports and additional corrective actions associated with the issues; and
  • The accuracy of the information provided by the licensee in the LER. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review by the inspectors constituted a single inspection sample as defined in IP 71153-05.

b. Findings
