-4-I Licensee Self-Assessment Capability (40500)
The objective of this inspection was to evaluate the effectiveness of the licensee's self-assessment programs. In this regard, the inspector reviewed the activities of the NSRB, PORC, and the ISEG. The thrust of this inspection was to measure how effective these groups were in identification of concerns and following such to resolutio NSRB The activities of the NSRB were governed by a Nuclear Group Policy,
" Nuclear Safety Review Board," Revision 6. dated April 14, 1989. In addition, there was a NSRB manual which contained seven procedures and an operational philosophy. The NSRB was found to meet about twice a month. Fourteen meetings have been held in 1989. About half of the meetings were characterized as special meetings with only one or two agenda items. About once every month, regular meetings were held. Regular meetings differed from the special meetings in that a standard format of agenda items were reviewed. The NSRB membership was found to be as described in Technical Specifications (TS) plus Nuclear Engineering Department Manager, Nuclear Purchasing and Materials Management Department Manager, Plant Manager, and an outside member. The standard format meetings addressed such agenda items as:
Significant industry events Concerns ISEG assessments, reports, and investigations TS or license changes including TS Interpretations Unreviewed Safety Question Evaluations (USOEs)
NRC Inspection Reports and Violations
Level 1 Station Problem Reports (SPRs)
Deficiency Reports Nuclear assurance audit scopes and reports Plant tours The inspector reviewed the meeting minutes of 1989 in detail. The inspector attended Meeting 89-14 held on August 9, 198 Observations by the inspector were as follows:
The titles of persons assigned to NSRB have changed but the TS
, have not been changed to reflect the new titles. There are no general managers of STP Management and STP Operations Support, but an Administrative Support General Manager and a Nuclear Engineering and Construction Vice-President. HL&P informed the inspector that a TS change is in process to update the TS to reflect current title !

-In"1989 NSRB meeting minutes have. documented the' identification 'j'
'
ofq2 7"Open Items," 2 " Interest Items," and 28 " Recommendations."
The inspector reviewed the closure documentation for 15 of!the
. cc
- above items; The tracking;of items / concerns to resolution and
, '~ close out.was satisfactory.' The inspector did note that the-NSRB manual did not* address how each of these types of. concerns-
-
were to be handled. Some concerns that were identified as e recommendations were:in reality handled as open.or interest items"in .that they were returned to the NSRB not just the'
'
.
D chairman. Examples of.this were the. recommendations for off-line review of USQEs, and the recommendations-of USQE 88-0146'
'in Meeting'89-02, and USQEs 88-0142 and -0154-in Meeting 89-0 .Three concerns were found not classified as any of the above types (see Review Item 89-016-in 89-01 meeting and Review:
Items89-117 and -118~'in 89-05 meeting). NSRB procedures
"
, could.be improved by' establishing the definition of these item
" types and the manner of resolution of the item * The inspector. selected.a sample of 27 USQEs after review of th most recent annual 10 CFR 50.59 report. A: review of NSRB's actions on these USQEs'found that NSRB could not conclude whether an unreviewed safety question existed for four USQEs and in each of these cases returned these USQEs to _PORC for additional-information. . These USQEs were: 87-061, dealing with a Final-Safety Analysis Report change on leak testing of' safety injection system accumulator discharge check valves, reviewed in the'
March 1988, 88-05 meeting;88-073, dealing with incompatibility of, hydraulic fluid used in main'feedwater isoletion valve operators, reviewed in the' June 1988, 88-09 meeting;88-077, dealing with a station modification of the addition of a' cross-tie line from the excess letdown to normal: letdown heat exchangers,
'
reviewed in the July 1988, 88-12 meeting; and 88-090, dealing with changing the radiation monitoring system alarm setpoints,

HL&P reviewed all USQEs submitted to NSRB and found one additional example, 88-45, of a USQE not resubmitted in a timely manne The four USQEs identified by the inspector and others (88-45 and more recent USQEs) were each entered into' the STP Licensee Connitment Tracking System (LCTS) for resolution by the end of the month. The PORC procedure was revised to require USQEs returned by NSRB for additional information to determine-if an unreviewed safety question existed to be then entered into the LCT Summary The NSRB meetings appeared to be well documented and resolution of concerns effective with some exceptions. The review of USQEs was not fully effective in certain cases, in that resolution of unacceptable USQEs was not timely.- The licensee corrected this problem in the
-
course of the inspectio ~b.- PORC E The activities of the PORC were governed by Procedure OPGP03-ZA-0004, Revision 10, dated December 15, 1988, " Plant Operations Review Committee." The PORC met in regular weekly meetings and held special meetings as required by circumstances. At regular meetings typically 30 agenda iterns were. addressed, and at special meetings typically eight agenda items were addressed. As of this inspectici., about 70 meetings have been held this year. The PORC membership was found to be as described in TS. The meetings addressed such items as:
NRC Violaticas-
Administrative Procedures
.TS Interpretations Field Change Requests-
Station Problem Reports i Unscheduled items 1 The inspector reviewed the Meeting Minutes89-042 through -065 in detail. The inspector attended PORC Meeting 89-06 Observations by the inspector were as follows:

-7-i not trained on 10 CFR 50.59 and root cause analysis. Before the end of this inspection, the licensee drafted a change to the !
PORC procedure which addressed training in 10 CFR 50.59 and root cause analysis and the maintenance of such training record *
The PORC meeting minutes had sufficient detail to track discussions of agenda items. The inspector found PORC
"reconinendations" were implemented and " Action Items" tracked and closed in a satisfactory manne *
" Unscheduled items" were agenda items that had not been planned to be addressed and, as such, little or no prior distribution was made. The inspector did not observe this practice being abused, but did note that the 89-061 meeting had 13 unscheduled items. The inspector was concerned that there could be abuses of the practice of " unscheduled items."
The same sample of USQEs as identified above were reviewed by the inspector. There were no problems identified with the USQEs being reconrnended for approva The inspector did note that at the 89-067 meeting an interdepartmental procedure was reviewed by the PORC for which four of the six PORC members had also participated in the normal procedure review process, creating the potential for a lessening of member objectivit Summary The PORC meetings appeared to be well documented. The agenda items were discussed in-depth and actions were effectively followed u c. ISEG i
The activities of ISEG were found to be governed by an ISEG manual which contained five procedures and an operational philosophy. In addition, there were several interdepartmental procedures such as IP-1.42 -1.49, -2.2, and -8.30 which governed ISEG activitie ISEG was found to be staffed at the TS minimum of five with two additional positions unfilled at this time. The ISEG's activities included screening of operating experience reports such as NRC InformationNotices(IENs)andInstituteofNuclearPower Operations (INPO) Significant Event Reports (SERs), Significant
,. Operating Experience Reports (S0ERs), and Operating and Maintenance Reminders (0MRs). The ISEG's role as described in the procedures was for ISEG to screen for applicability to STP, identify issues and concerns to be addressed, identify questions to be answered, and recommend the appropriate organization for review of the repor ISEG reviewed Licensee Event Reports (LEPs) for NSR ISEG was L

.pl ant' observations. Their goal was to spend-50 percent of the ISEG effort on plant observations, such as touring the plant, observin contro? room and local station operations, and monitoring maintenance and special evolutions. ISEG activities were defined in tasks and
. - documented in "Assessneent" reports. Currently, ISEG has assigned 32 tasks and issued " Assessment" reports on about' 20 of the task The inspector's observations on ISEG activities were as follows:
It appeared that ISEG did not use all NRC issuances and. industry advisories in that it was not on the regular distribution for NRC Bulletins and Generic Letters and vendor information such as service bulletins, service information letters, etc. .NRC Bulletins and Generic Letters were screened by the Operations Support Licensing Division (OSLD). Vendor information was 1 administered under the Vendor Technical Information Program which did not interface with ISEG. It would. appear tha a significan_t improvement.could be made in the expansion of input information to ISE o

Review of ISEG activities indicates that assessments were detailed and thorough in approach,'with some documentation deficiencies noted. ISEG appeared, however, to be significantly below its goal in performing direct plant observations. Additionally, only limited
