SUBJECT:
WOLF CREEK GENERATING STATION - INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000482/2024003 - REVISED
Dear Cleve Reasoner:
On September 30, 2024, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Wolf Creek Generating Station. On October 15, 2024, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Robert Bayer, General Manager, Plant Operations, and other members of your staff. The results of the inspection were originally documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000482/2024003, issued on November 1, 2024 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management Systems [ADAMS] Accession No. ML24295A379). On December 31, 2024, you provided a response (ADAMS Accession No. ML24366A161) in which you contested a non-cited violation (NCV) for failure to remove motor-operated valve thermal overload bypass jumpers during surveillance testing and system maintenance (05000482/2024003-01). On April 4, 2025, the NRC issued a response (ADAMS Accession No.
ML25087A158) in which we concluded that the violation should be rescinded. Accordingly, the enclosed inspection report is being reissued to reflect the removal of NCV 05000482/2024003-01. The revised inspection report is enclosed, which documents that no findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified during this inspection.
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 Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Unresolved Item (Open)
Failure to Perform Adequate Audit of the Integrated Public Alert Warning System URI 05000482/2024003-01 71114.02
Description:
The NRC identified a deviation between the audit practices implemented by the licensee compared to what is described in their Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) approved Alert and Notification System (ANS) design report and its implementing procedures.
The primary method of notification, Integrated Public Alert Warning System (IPAWS), is operated by Coffey County. However, per ANS design report section H.B.11, "Quality Assurance," and its implementing Procedure EPP 06-024, Alert and Notification System, revision 1, the licensee is required to conduct an annual audit of the county's program to maintain IPAWS operation. Audit documentation for 2023 did not provide adequate basis for the inspector to determine that the IPAWS reliability standards of 94 percent or greater were met. The standards and guidelines for what is an acceptable level of documentation to support the audit do not currently exist and therefore the inspector needs guidance from FEMA to determine if the audit met their expectations.
Areas of the audit that require specific guidelines from FEMA for proper documentation in order to evaluate are:
1) Verification of IPAWS Certification 2) Verification of System Training 3) Verification of Systems Testing 4) Verification of Wireless Emergency Alerting Coverage 5) Verification of Cellular Provider Coverage Maps 6) Verification of Maintenance of IPAWS Reliability/Availability and Changes as Reported by FEMA 7) Verification of Reliability/Availability and changes as reported by the Coffey County Public Notification System contractor
Planned Closure Actions: As ANS design reports require FEMA approval, this deviation from the approved design report requires a review and determination from FEMA regarding its acceptability. This URI will remain open pending determination of acceptability from FEMA. A determination of whether the deviation constitutes a performance deficiency will be made after FEMA's determination of acceptability.
Licensee Actions: Licensee entered the issue into their corrective action program.

Turbine-Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Turbine Governor Valve Actuator Failure (EA-24-091)
Description:
On August 20, 2024, at 5:00 a.m. CDT, the licensee entered a planned maintenance outage of the turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) pump, under Technical Specification (TS) Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.7.5, action C, which requires the licensee to return the pump to operable status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in Mode 3 within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. While conducting AFW testing, valve AL-HV-10, the AFW flow control for steam generator B, did not respond as expected. The licensee calibrated the valve controller and completed diagnostic valve testing, and no issues were identified, so the licensee concluded that valve AL-HV-10 was operating correctly. On August 22, 2024, at 3:16 a.m. CDT, during post-maintenance testing activities on valve AL-HV-10, with the TDAFW pump running, the turbine tripped on electronic overspeed. The licensee commenced troubleshooting activities for the turbine trip. The licensee was able to identify that the cause of the turbine trip as a faulty actuator on the turbine speed governing valve, FV-313. The licensee determined that the repairs to correct the condition with the TDAFW pump would exceed the TS 3.7.5 LCO completion time and initiated the notice of enforcement discretion (NOED) process with the NRC by contacting the senior resident inspector.
Based on the NRC staffs evaluation of the licensees request, the staff determined that granting this NOED was consistent with the NRCs Enforcement Policy and staff guidance.
NRC staff independently evaluated the risk insights associated with the requested NOED condition and obtained results consistent with the licensees assertions relative to satisfying the incremental conditional core damage probability and incremental conditional large early relace probability criteria referenced above. The NOED request met the criteria specified in NRCs Enforcement Manual, appendix F, sections 2.2 and 2.5. Therefore, as communicated orally to the licensee at 1:05 a.m. CDT on August 23, 2024, the NRC exercised discretion to not enforce compliance with TS LCO 3.7.5 requirements that Wolf Creek Generating Station be in Mode 3 by 11:00 a.m. CDT on August 23, 2024. The NRC extended the Wolf Creek Generating Station Mode 3 entry by 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> to 11:00 p.m. CDT on August 24, 2024, and subsequent mode changes required by TS 3.7.5 were extended as well. Subsequent to the NRC verbal approval of the NOED request, and prior to entering the period of enforcement discretion, the licensee discovered an additional issue, not related to the NOED, with the AFW system that would require extensive troubleshooting to determine the cause-and-effect repairs. Thus, following the expiration of the 72-hour TS 3.7.5 LCO at 5:00 a.m. CDT, the licensee entered TS 3.7.5, condition D, requiring the plant to be in Mode 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and Mode 4 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. Operators initiated a TS required shutdown at 8:00 a.m. CDT on August 23, 2024, as required by action D of TS 3.7.5 LCO. The licensee completed the shutdown to Mode 3 at 10:24 a.m. CDT, and Mode 4 at 4:51 pm CDT on August 23, 2024.
The licensee submitted its written request for enforcement discretion in letter WO 24-0609, Docket No. 50-482: Request for Notice of Enforcement Discretion Regarding Technical Specification 3.7.5, Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System, dated August 27, 2024, Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No.
ML24240A264. The NOED letter from the NRC staff was sent to the licensee on August 29, 2024 (ML24241A221).
Planned Closure Actions: In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Manual, appendix F, an unresolved item is being issued to review the cause of the need for enforcement discretion to determine if there is a violation associated with that cause. The inspectors plan to review the licensees hardware failure analysis and cause evaluation associated with the failure of the TDAFW pump actuator on the turbine speed governing valve, FV-313.
Licensee Actions: The licensee replaced the TDAFW pump actuator on the turbine speed governing valve, FV-313, and performed post-maintenance testing satisfactorily.

Subject: Request for Information
Wolf Creek team,
This email serves as my request for information:
Please provide the following via CERTREC:
1. Objective evidence of closure of each line item in the order.
2. All full condition reports generated related to the confirmatory order.
3. Any condition reports where willful/careless disregard was suspected.
4. All procedures changed as a result of the confirmatory order.
5. Any changes to the training program, and any training materials used to
communicate CO issues (e.g. general employee training).
6. All self-assessments related to completion of confirmatory order items.
7. All 3rd party assessments related to completion of the confirmatory order.
8. All letters generated to the NRC certifying annual/final completion of CO items.
This is my best list as of now. If I find the need for other items, I will contact under
separate e-mail.
