"
The retraining outline and training attendance records were reviewe In' addition, the revised General Employee Training (GET) was reviewe *
The revised fire watch. scheduling was reviewed, which included shorter hours and increased supervisory monitorin The inspector has'no further questions regarding this issu This item is considered close . . (Closed) Violation (498/8870-03) - Failure to Adequately Record Heat Numbers !
It was note"d by the inspector during the review of repair and replacement Traveler R&R 1-88-019, that Steps 1B and 10 did not contain an adequate record of material identification markings as required (i.e., only the material specification markings were recorded ~for the majority of the studs and the heat numbers were omitted).
The inspector-reviewed the licensee corrective action outlined in STP .j Response ST-HL-AE-2980 to the violatio The licensee stated the although the heat numbers were not recorded i properly, the traveler in question and the maintenance work
~
request (MWR RH57765) provided adequate traceability. The licensee also stated that mechanical maintenance personnel were not completely j familiar with ASME material marking conventions. Training was '
provided to the mechanical maintenance personnel related to ASME !
Section XI requirements with emphasis on proper material ]
identification and distinguishing of heat numbers and material -
markings. A review of training records indicated that the mechanical maintenance craft personnel attended the required training. The inspector had no further questions regarding this issue. This item is considered close . (Closed) Deviation (498/8726-04) - Failure to Establish a Record !
Index Prior to Records Receipt !
The licensee had committed, in the STP Final Safety Analysis Report, to the provisions of Regulatory Guide 1.88 and ANSI N45.2.9-1974, which requires that an index be established for quality records prior to their receipt of records into the storage facility.
l Contrary to this requirement, several classes of quality records were j receipted into the Operations Document Control Center (ODCC) prior to {

(Closed) LER 88-10: "Inoperability of Reactor Coolant Pump Seal Injection Containment Isolation Valves" - Unit 1
!
-On September 23, 1987, the licensee discovered that the charging header '
pressure indicator -(PI) was reading 1000 psi more than the local process pressure gaug Maintenance work request (MWR) CV-8702 7620 was prepare ;
When-the shift supervisor reviewed and approved the MWR, he failed to I'
recognize that the PI could not properly indicate low header pressur Failure of.the PI to indicate low header' pressure would result in the l inoperability of the PI loop (containment isolation valves) which would I violate TS 3.6.3. Based on the as found calibration data taken in response to the MWRg the setpoint of 400 psi would not have been reached l on decreasing pressure. This would have prevented' automatic closure of )
the four reactor coolant pump seal injection containment isolatio !
valves (RCSICIV) upon a containment isolation phase A signal coincident '
,
with low charging header pressure. The technician working with the MWR could not ~ calibrate the transmitter. The licensee determined that the transmitter should be replaced. Licensee personnel did not realize that ,
the outboard containment isolation valves (CIV) on the reactor coolant !
pump seal injection (RCPSI) piping system could be affected. CIV ;
operability is required for plant operating Modes 1.through 4. Unit 1 J entered Mode 4 on October 31, 1987. On January 26, 1988, with Unit 1 in !
Mods 4 prior to initial criticality, the licensee discovered, during a technical specifications (TS) surveillance review meeting, that th charging header pressure instrumentation 1 cop did not have surveillance requirements with respect to containment isolatio A replacement
,. transmitter was installed, tested, and placed in servic The charging L header pressure instrumentation loop was retested successfull The PI i loop was declared operable on January 28, 198 )
The. licensee determined the cause of the event was an ineffective program
..
for generation and approval of MWRs. The guidance provided to the shift l ' supervisor was insufficient for him to make decisions relative to l: equipment operability. A contributing factor was that the charging header pressure-instrument loop was not identified in the T l A Severity Level IV violation (50-498/8809-04) was issued to the license )
This. Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued because the corrective actions i did not appear to have been fully effective in precluding failures to meet surveillance requirement The NOV was closed in NRC Inspection i Report SC-498; 499/88-5 No additional action was necessary.

The licensee's revised corrective actions included: (1) an evaluation of the program for generation and approval of MWRs, (2) required reading for operator requalification training (Course No. 801, LER 88-10; attendance sheets verified training was completed), (3) submission of a proposed TS amendment to add the low charging header pressure instrumentation loop operability for limiting conditions of operation (LCO) and surveillance requirements. (the NRC approved the TS changes for paragraphs 3.4.9.3 and 4.4.9.3.1.d and bases 3/4.4.9 and 3/4.4.14 in Amendment No. 4) and (4) revision of 4 surveillance procedures:

OPGP03-ZE-0004, " Plant Surveillance Program." Required that the divisional surveillance coordinators periodically review upcoming tests and ensure that the test packages are received by the starting date. The revisions should assure that the actuation function is consistent with other engineered safety features (ESF) functions and satisfies the TS requirement *
OPGP03-ZE-0005, " Plant Surveillance Procedure Preparation." Required the writer to ensure that available information used to document the entire circuit is reviewe *
OPGP03-ZE-0021, " Inservice Testing Program for Valves." Established controls to review implementing procedures when new revisions are issue The inspector verified the readings on the local process pressure gauge, observed that the PI would properly indicate low header pressure, reviewed the calibration data for the PI, reviewed the charging header pressure instrumentation loop retest information, and reviewed the licensee's cause and evaluation of the event. The inspector found no discrepancies in the licensee's replacement of components, retest, or evaluation of this even The inspector agreed with the licensee's findings and revised corrective action This item is close (Closed)LER88-41: "An Inopersble Toxic Gas Analyzer Due to a Wiring Error" - Unit 1 On July 10, 1988, with Unit 1 in Mode 1, a high toxic gas alarm occurred without an automatic actuation of the control room ventilation syste Control room personnel placed the ventilation system into recirculation mode and verified the damper lineup. Investigation by the licensee determined that the alarm resulted from one analyzer displaying a continuous high concentration of hydrochloric acid (hcl), while the other analyzer showed normal readings. The affected analyzer was flushed and rezeroed with zero sample gas (ambient air). The toxic gas analyzer was i

returned to normal operation. No personnel were ' working in the vicinity of the analyzers when the event occurred. An investigation by the licensee of the failure of the ESF revealed that.a wiring error (relay K-15 was bypassed) prevented actuation of the control room ventilation-to recirculation mode from a high toxic gas analyzer reading i or alarm. The wiring error was corrected by relanding a wire on relay 15 '
as required by MWR HE 45461 and HE 59847 and Change Control Package (CCP) 1-J-FST-0555. The toxic gas analyzer was tested successfully and returned to service. This item is close (Closed) LER 88-54: " Control Room Ventilation Actuation to Recirculation Mode Due to a High Ammonia Trip on a Toxic Analyzer" - Unit 1 On September 21, 1988, with Unit 1 'ni Mode 1, an automatic actuation of the control room ventilation to recirculation mode occurred. The l actuation resulted from a high trip of the ammonia channel on one of the !
two toxic gas analyzers. The licensee determined that the ESF actuation was caused by a momentary high leveT readin Ammonia fumes being produced from a transfer of condensate polishing system waste to the neutralization basin was the most likely cause of the high level readin There were no other plant operations in progress that could have caused the trip on the ammonia ' channel. There were no plant personnel working on or around the toxic gas analyzers at the' time of the occurrence. The monthly surveillance test was successfully performed on the analyzer. No ,
evidence was found to suggest an analyzer failure. The licensee performed !
a revised analysis and submitted a request to increase the TS limit for a ;
high level ammonia trip from 5 p rts per million (ppm) to 25 ppm to the '
NRC on March 8, 1988. The TS chenge (3.3.3.7) for ammonia set points was approved by NRC.
