PLANT STATUS

The unit began at full rated thermal power and approximately 1120 MWe on January 1, 2020.

The unit remained at full rated thermal power through the end 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/readingrm/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. From January 1 - March 19, 2020, 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.

Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), resident inspectors were directed to begin telework and to remotely access licensee information using available technology. During this time the resident inspectors performed periodic site visits each week and during that time conducted plant status activities as described in IMC 2515, Appendix D; and observed risk significant activities when warranted. In addition, resident and regional baseline inspections were evaluated to determine if all or portion of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. If the inspections could be performed remotely, they were conducted per the applicable IP. In the cases where it was determined the objectives and requirements could not be performed remotely, management elected to postpone and reschedule the inspection to a later date.

INSPECTION RESULTS

FLEX Diesel Generator Phase Rotation Incorrect Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.3] - Change 71111.22 Systems FIN 05000461/2020001-01 Management Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Green finding when the licensee failed to implement programmatic controls that assure the viability and reliability of the primary FLEX diesel generator.

Specifically, the licensee failed to verify that the FLEX diesel generator 1FX01KA phase rotation was appropriate.

Description:

On July 11, 2019, the licensee performed phase rotation checks on the 'A' FLEX diesel generator. The phase rotation checks identified that the connections on the diesel and the connections to in-plant equipment were reversed; the diesel electrical output was counter-clockwise, and the phase rotation of in-plant equipment was clockwise. Therefore, if the FLEX diesel was connected to the in-plant equipment, then it would cause phase-dependent loads to rotate backwards and had the potential to damage in-plant equipment.

The FLEX diesel generator was installed per Engineering Change 392335. The generator can be connected to FLEX load centers via temporary cables if required by station procedures. The phase rotation of the diesel generators must match the phase rotation of the load centers to ensure that installed plant equipment would function properly.

Clinton Power Station was committed to Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 12-06, "Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX) Implementation Guide," Revision 0, during installation and implementation of their FLEX strategies. Nuclear Energy Institute 12-06, Section 11.5.1, stated that "FLEX mitigation equipment should be initially tested, or other reasonable means used to verify performance conforms to the limiting FLEX requirements." Engineering Change 392335 specified that phase rotation was a critical parameter for the FLEX diesel generators. The critical parameter was not translated into a work instruction that performed the initial testing to verify phase rotation. As a result, the licensee did not identify the incorrect phase rotation during original installation.

The site implementation of FLEX was inspected under Temporary Instruction 191 in 2016.

During that inspection, the inspectors requested information regarding electrical phase rotation checks as documented in Action Request 2685173, "Open NRC Inspection Questions," dated June 23, 2016. The licensee did not perform phase rotation checks at that time because they relied on the vendor testing to verify that the diesel had the correct rotation. However, the diesel output cabling was wired in a reverse rotation configuration.

The inspectors determined that the NRC question during Temporary Instruction 191 was not properly evaluated and resolved. Therefore, the performance deficiency was determined to be NRC identified.

Corrective Actions: The licensee changed the diesel generator output wiring so that its phase rotation matched the phase rotation of in-plant equipment.

Corrective Action References: Action Request 4263520, "FLEX Diesel Generator Phase Rotation"

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the licensee failed to verify that the FLEX diesel generator phase rotation was appropriate to support the site FLEX strategy in accordance with NEI 12-06, Revision 0, which was a performance deficiency.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Design Control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the performance deficiency resulted in the 'A' FLEX diesel generator being unavailable to supply adequate AC power to station loads. This determination was confirmed by a cross-regional panel convened on October 8, 2019. The finding was also similar to IMC 0612, Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues," Example 1.a, in that the subsequent testing determined that the equipment was non functional.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors answered "No" to questions 1-3 in Exhibit 2, Section E. Therefore, the finding screened as Green.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.3 - Change Management: Leaders use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority.

Specifically, when the licensee implemented their FLEX strategy, they did not systematically evaluate and identify the generator phase rotation was a critical parameter that could impact the ability of the FLEX diesel generator to perform its function.

Enforcement:

Inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this finding.

Safety Relief Valve Wiring Issue Results in Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.5] - Work 71153 Systems NCV 05000461/2020001-02 Management Open/Closed A self-revealed Green finding and associated non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 3.5.1, Emergency Core Cooling System, was identified when safety relief valve (SRV) 1B21-F041B automatic depressurization system (ADS) function was determined to be inoperable from May 2017 through October 2019. Specifically, Technical Specifications Limiting Condition for Operation 3.5.1, Emergency Core Cooling System - Operating, Action E (one ADS valve inoperable) requiring an inoperable ADS valve be restored within 14 days, was not met.

Description:

On October 2, 2019, with the unit shut down and in Mode 5 for refueling outage C1R19, the licensee was performing SRV testing. Safety Relief Valve 1B21-F041B did not open upon demand using the Division 1 main control room (MCR) hand switch. Further investigation identified that the Division 1 MCR switch for SRV 1B21-F041B opened SRV 1B21-F051B, and the Division 1 MCR switch for SRV 1821-F051B opened SRV 1B21-F041B. The Division 2 MCR switches for SRV 1B21-F041B and SRV 1B21-F051B operated correctly. The affected SRVs were adjacent to each other in the reactor drywell. Investigation determined this condition was a Division 1 SRV wiring issue that occurred during a refueling outage in May 2017.

Both SRVs in question had no component signage. The conduit and the wiring for each SRV had character identification. During reassembly, the wiring was inserted into the incorrect conduit. The work package lacked the specificity to ensure the correct wires were installed in the correct conduit for the correct SRVs. Post-maintenance testing, performed at a different time than the wiring reassembly, relied on the conduit identification in the work package and failed to identify this transposition of wires.

Safety Relief Valve 1B21-F051B had a safety/relief (S/R) function and a low-low set (LLS)function. The LLS relief function is armed upon relief actuation of an S/R valve and will cause a greater magnitude blowdown (in the relief mode) for specified S/R valves and a subsequent cycling of a single LLS valve. The LLS and S/R functions were not affected by this condition.

Safety Relief Valve 1B21-F041B has an S/R function and an ADS function. The S/R functions were not affected by this condition. However, due to accumulator volume design requirements for the ADS SRV, this condition rendered the ADS function for SRV 1B21-F041B inoperable since May 2017. As a result, Technical Specifications Limiting Condition for Operation 3.5.1, Emergency Core Cooling System - Operating, Action E (one ADS valve inoperable), which requires an inoperable ADS valve be restored within 14 days, was not met in Modes 1, 2, and 3 (with steam dome pressure greater than 150 psig) from May 2017 to October 2019. Repairs, that is configuration restorations, were made to both SRVs per Work Order 4966208, and post-maintenance testing was satisfactorily completed prior to subsequent mode change and reactor startup.

On November 29, 2019, an LER was submitted to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B),any operation or condition which was prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications. On January 29, 2020, and after completion of the licencee's investigation, a revision to the LER was also submitted under the same requirement.

Corrective Actions: The Division 1 wiring for SRV 1B21-F041B and SRV 1B21-F051B was corrected and post-maintenance testing completed. Work order instructions will be revised to add this event as operating experience and for SRV determination/re-termination steps to incorporate more robust verification practices, including defined scope on wiring designators.

Operations personnel will create and place SRV equipment identification number signage during the next refueling outage to eliminate the need for craft and operators to rely on conduit numbers to identify SRVs.

Corrective Action References: Action Request 4284526, "SRV 51B Actuates Instead of 41B"

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The licensee failed to screen and implement key steps into work order instructions as required by MA-AA-1000-1001, "Key Step Process." Specifically, the work order was vague and required the performance of multiple actions within a single step, which resulted in the transposition of solenoid wires between two adjacent safety relief valves.

Significance Determination: The finding could reasonably screen to green using IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power because although inoperable, the 41B ADS valve retained its PRA functional capability with limited reduction in reliability. There was no impact to the overpressure protection function of either the 41B ADS or 51B LLS safety relief valves. There was a minimal impact on the depressurization function. Due to the design of the system, even with the crossed wiring, automatic and manual ADS actuation of the 41B valve using the arm and depress pushbuttons in the control room would have opened the valve as required unless there was also a failure in the division 2 actuation circuit. Manual depressurization if ADS is inhibited using individual valve controls for 41B would have opened 51B and vice versa. Since the valves have different functions (ADS vs. LLS), they are designed with different accumulator sizes, although neither accumulator is sufficient for a 24-hour PRA mission without the normal air supply or back-up air bottles. As a result, under a narrow set of specific circumstances involving additional failures that are not a result of the performance deficiency, reliability of the 41 B ADS valve could be impacted.

To confirm the screening result, the SRA performed a detailed risk evaluation using the Clinton Standardized Plant Analysis Risk Model, version 8.59. The ADS logic is not explicitly modeled. Therefore, the SRA used the SRV failure to open basic event as a surrogate to model the degraded condition. Assuming an exposure period of 1 year and a significantly increased valve failure probability over the baseline failure probability of 2.2E-3, the change in risk was below 1E-7/yr., which is a finding of very low safety significance. The dominant sequences involved Anticipated Transient Without Scram events in which the overpressure function of the SRVs is successful, but the subsequent depressurization function fails, in part, due to the degraded condition.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.5 - Work Management: The organization implements a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. The work process includes the identification and management of risk commensurate to the work and the need for coordination with different groups or job activities.

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specifications Limiting Condition for Operation 3.5.1, Emergency Core Cooling System - Operating, Action E (One ADS valve inoperable), requires an inoperable ADS valve be restored within 14 days in Modes 1, 2, and 3 (with steam dome pressure greater than 150 psig).

Contrary to the above, between May 2017 and October 2019, the licensee failed to restore an inoperable ADS valve within 14 days in Modes 1, 2, and 3 (with steam dome pressure greater than 150 psig).

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as an non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
