SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting an integrated inspection at Braidwood Station, Units 1 and 2 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.
List of Findings and Violations
Failure of the facility licensee to certify that a licensed senior operator with an inactive license completed the requirements of 10 CFR 55.53(f) before resuming functions authorized by a license.
Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable NCV 05000456,05000457/2019003-01 Open/Closed EA-19-116 Not Applicable 71111.11B The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 55.53(f) for the failure of the facility to certify that a senior licensed operator with an inactive license completed the requirements to return the license to an active status before resuming functions authorized by the license. Specifically, a senior reactor operator whose license was no longer in an active status was permitted to relieve the unit supervisor watch. As this individual was no longer permitted to perform the functions of a senior operator, and subsequently was the only senior reactor operator in the control room for a period of time during the shift, the facility did not ensure a senior operator with an active license was present in the control room at all times when both units were in Mode 1.
Additional Tracking Items
None.
PLANT STATUS
Unit 1 began the inspection period operating at full power. On July 23, 2019, power was reduced to approximately 30 percent to facilitate electrical repairs to a solenoid valve associated with the 1D Steam Generator (SG) Feedwater Regulating Valve (1FW540). Upon completion of the repair activities and associated post-maintenance testing, the unit returned to operation at full power on July 25, 2019. On September 18, 2019, the unit reached the end of the nuclear fuel cycle and entered planned power coast down operations in preparation for its 21st refueling outage. Late in the morning on September 23, 2019, the unit tripped while operating at approximately full power when the 1B SG Feedwater Regulating Valve (1FW520) unexpectedly failed to the closed position. Following the identification of failed digital control components associated with the 1FW520 valve, the unit was restarted and the reactor made critical on September 24, 2019. Synchronization of the main electrical generator to the power grid occurred later that same morning. The unit had reached approximately 90 percent power at the end of the inspection period with power coast down operations continuing.
Unit 2 began the inspection period operating at full power. With the exception of minor reductions in power to support scheduled testing activities or small load changes requested by the transmission system dispatcher, the unit remained operating at or near full power for the balance of the inspection period.
INSPECTION SCOPES
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515 Appendix D, Plant Status and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Failure of the facility licensee to certify that a licensed senior operator with an inactive license completed the requirements of 10 CFR 55.53(f) before resuming functions authorized by a license.
Cornerstone Severity Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Not Applicable Severity Level IV NCV 05000456,05000457/2019003-01 Open/Closed EA-19-116 Not Applicable 71111.11B The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 55.53(f) for the failure of the facility to certify that a senior licensed operator with an inactive license completed the requirements to return the license to an active status before resuming functions authorized by the license. Specifically, a senior reactor operator whose license was no longer in an active status was permitted to relieve the unit supervisor watch. As this individual was no longer permitted to perform the functions of a senior operator, and subsequently was the only senior reactor operator in the control room for a period of time during the shift, the facility did not ensure a senior operator with an active license was present in the control room at all times when both units were in Mode 1.
Description:
On August 20, 2019, the NRC identified a licensed senior operator who had been performing the functions of a senior operator with an inactive license. The licensed senior operator had been off-shift, in another department, for a few years and was not maintaining his license in an active status. The senior operator restored the active status of his license by completing 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> of shift functions under the direction of a proficient senior operator as of December 20, 2018 (4th quarter 2018), in accordance with 10 CFR 55.53(f)(2). The senior operator's reactivation record was not reviewed and approved until January 4, 2019. Subsequently, the senior operator was incorrectly entered into the facility's qualification system as having completed the requirements to return the license to an active status in the 1st quarter 2019.
As a result, the senior operator did not stand all of the required seven 8-hour or five 12-hour shifts in the 1st quarter 2019 and the license once again reverted to an inactive status as of April 1, 2019. The senior operator was then permitted to stand 12 watches during the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2019, without a license in active status. This was the result of the facility licensee's failure to certify that a licensed senior operator with an inactive license completed the requirements of 10 CFR 55.53(f) before resuming functions authorized by the license.
Additionally, these actions resulted in the facility licensee not meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(iii) and Technical Specification 5.1.2, to have a person with a senior operator license, capable of performing the functions of that position, in the control room at all times and having a senior reactor operator responsible for the control room command function when either unit is in Mode 1, 2, 3, or 4, respectively. Since these 2 violations were the direct result of the violation of the licensed operator's license condition, they will be dispositioned as part of the Severity Level IV violation.
Corrective Actions: The facility immediately removed the licensed operator from the qualification tracking system and placed the individual on administrative hold from performing licensed duties. The facility also conducted a stand down with all Operations crews, the Operations Training department personnel, and the Department Training Coordinators on the issue, as well as performing an extent of condition review of all recently reactivated licenses in 2018 and 2019. No additional issues were identified with SROs or ROs standing shifts with an inactive license. An operation's Standing Order was issued for each licensed operator to verify qualifications and license restrictions for watch standing every shift prior to watch standing and audited by the Senior Operations Supervisor.
Corrective Action References: IR 04273460; OP-AA-105-102, Attachment 1 not complete for 1st quarter 2019; dated 8/21/2019. IR 04274629; EOC [Extent of Condition] of Operator License Maintenance Review; dated 8/27/2019.
Performance Assessment:
The inspectors determined that the facility incorrectly credited a senior operator's license reactivation in the calendar quarter following the quarter in which the under-direction watches were completed, and then subsequently permitted the senior operator to stand watch in the control room with an inactive license. This error constituted a performance deficiency that was within the facility's ability to foresee and correct and should have been prevented. The inspectors determined that Traditional Enforcement applied, as the issue had the potential to impact the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory function. The NRC may need to perform a review in consideration of a licensing action, if a licensed operator fails to meet the conditions of their license. If the information regarding the qualifications of an individual is not accurately presented, the NRC may potentially make an incorrect licensing decision based on the inaccurate information. Specifically, the facility did not certify that a licensed senior operator, whose license became inactive at the end of 1st quarter 2019, completed the requirements of 10 CFR 55.53(f) before resuming functions authorized by the license, and permitted the senior operator to stand watches in the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2019. These actions violated a license condition as specified in 10 CFR 55.53
- (e) and (f). No associated Reactor Oversight Program finding was identified, and no cross-cutting aspect was assigned.
Enforcement:
The ROPs significance determination process does not specifically consider the regulatory process impact in its assessment of licensee performance. Therefore, it is necessary to address this violation which impedes the NRCs ability to regulate using traditional enforcement to adequately deter non-compliance.
Severity: This issue is similar to the violation example 6.4.c.1(c) in the NRC Enforcement Policy, dated May 28, 2019, for a Severity Level III violation because it involved the noncompliance with a condition stated on an individuals license. However, since the amount of time that lapsed between consecutive watches was never more than a calendar quarter, and the length of time used to complete 5 consecutive watches was within the intent of the requirement, along with the fact that there were no adverse impacts to nuclear safety, the NRC has determined that this issue will be dispositioned as a Severity Level IV NCV in accordance with the NRCs Enforcement Policy.
Violation: Title 10, of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 55.53(e) requires, in part, that if a licensee has not been actively performing the functions of an operator or senior operator, the licensee may not resume activities authorized by a license issued under this part except as permitted by paragraph
- (f) of this section. Section 55.53(f) states, If paragraph
- (e) of this section is not met, before resumption of functions authorized by a license issued under this part, an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall certify the following:
- (1) That the qualifications and status of the licensee are current and valid; and
- (2) That the licensee has completed a minimum of 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> of shift functions under the direction of an operator or senior operator as appropriate and in the position to which the individual will be assigned. The 40 hours4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> must have included a complete tour of the plant and all required shift turnover procedures.
Title 10 CFR 50.54(m)(2)(iii) requires, in part, that when a nuclear power unit is in an operational mode other than cold shutdown or refueling, as defined by the units technical specifications, each licensee shall have a person holding a senior operator license for the nuclear power unit in the control room at all times.
The facility Technical Specification (TS) Section 5.1.2, states, in part, that a senior reactor operator shall be responsible for the control room command function while either unit is in Mode 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Contrary to the above, between April 1, 2019 and August 6, 2019, the facility licensee failed to certify that a licensed senior operator with an inactive license completed the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55.53(f) before resuming functions authorized by a license issued by the NRC.
Additionally, on June 18, 2019, for several periods totaling approximately 16 minutes and 47 seconds, there was not a Senior Reactor Operator in the control room with an active license. Therefore, the facility licensee failed to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(m)and TS 5.1.2 for minimum control room staffing. Because these violations were the result of the facility licensees failure to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55.53(f) to certify that the senior reactor operator who was on shift had an active license, these violations will be dispositioned as part of the Severity Level IV violation.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as an non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Observation: Steam Generator (SG) 1D Main Feedwater Regulating Valve (FRV) 1FW540, DC Bus Grounds 71152 The inspectors performed detailed reviews of IR 4209878, DC Bus 111 Ground Coming in with 1PL01J Panel Check, IR 4248185, DC Bus 111 Ground, and IR 4265545, Unexpected Annunciator 1-21-D6: DC Bus 111 Ground. The licensees evaluation for this issue went back to the previous Unit 1 refueling outage (A1R20) that took place during April of 2018.
During that refuel outage, digital FRV positioners were installed on all applicable valves on Unit 1. As part of this upgrade, new solenoid valves were also installed on the associated FRV actuators. Licensee troubleshooting identified that a solid DC Bus 111 ground was located between terminal box 1JB080T and the A solenoid valve, 1FSV-FW540-A, on FRV 1FW540. Upon inspection, one of the lugs/screws for the solenoid wiring terminations was excessively long, significantly longer than the others used for the project, and eventually wore through the insulating tape that had been applied causing the electrical connection to short out against the conduit body.
The cause of the ground was determined by the licensee to have been poor worker craftsmanship. Contractor electricians performing the solenoid replacement for 1FSV-FW540-A did not use the hardware referenced in the work package material request as specified. The lug/screw for the solenoid wiring termination that was significantly longer than the others required a different taping/insulating technique, which was not utilized.
Furthermore, the taping/insulating procedure referenced in the work package was for the use of the hardware specified within the material request. The licensees investigation could not determine why one lug/screw utilized in making up the connection was significantly longer than the others. New hardware of a shorter dimension had been requested and associated with the work package, and was on site and available for use.
Although there were several errors associated with the FRV 1FW540 digital upgrade work that were reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and that should have been prevented, the inspectors determined that the performance deficiency involved did not rise to the level of being of more than minor safety significance and, as such, did not constitute a documentable finding. Additionally, no violations of NRC requirements were identified by the inspectors. Following their review, the inspectors concluded that the licensees identification of the issue had been timely and that the actions the licensee had taken to troubleshoot the condition had been reasonable and appropriate. Additionally, the inspectors concluded that the licensee had established corrective actions to address the issue that were appropriate for its safety significance and that could reasonably be expected to resolve the issue.
