The inspectors observed all or portions of the following work activities, identified by their work authorization numbers:

Unit 1:

79963 Packing replacement on Valve SI-MOV-001B, Train B emergency core cooling system refueling water storage tank suction valv Calibration of all feedwater flow transmitter Unit 2:

97549 Solenoid valve replacement on Component Cooling Water Geturn l Valve FV-449 Channel 4 over power differential temperature (OPDT) card replacement and calibratio Observations and Findinas The inspectors found the work performed under these activities to be professional and thorough. The mechanics and technicians demonstrated a detailed knowledge of procedures and equipment associated with the tasks. Supervisors and system engineers were observed monitoring job progress and providing oversight.

l During as-found testing of the Valve SI-MOV-0018 motor actuator, technicians determined that the indicated motor current was higher than expected. The

technicians stated that the motor current had been trending near the top of the

! acceptable current band. The technicians also observed indications of packing

'

material rubbing off on the valve stem. The technicians notified their supervisor and the scope of the maintenance was expanded to include packing replacement. The valve packing was replaced in accordance with approved work instructions. The inspector determined that the motor current was satisf actory in the postmaintenance tes On November 22, the Unit 2 Channel 4 OPDT spiked low and caused a trip of its associated bistables for approximately 30 seconds. This condition had previously occurred for a shorter duration, however, no data was captured by the plant

"Feedwater Flow Loop Calibration," a licensee engineer discovered that the Unit 1 scaling data values for the feedwater flow transmitters were the same as for Unit If the Unit 2 values had been used in the calibration of nuclear instruments, the instrument error introduced wou!d have been in the nonconservative directio Upon discovery, the issue was discussed with the shift supervisor who directed a reactor power reduction to P percent until the issue could be resolved. The inspector followed the prc,,,ression of problem resolution, operability reviews, and corrective action implementation. The amount of nonconservatism was found to be very small and within the accuracy range of the instrument set-points. The ,

erroneous calibration data was found to have not been used during the most recent l flow transmitter calibrations, nevertheless, all of the Unit 1 flow transmitters were recalibrated using the appropriate scaling data (Section M1.1).

E3.1 Permanent Plant Modification Review I Insoection Scone (37550)

The inspectors reviewed the design change packages for modifications to the !

quality display parameter system, toxic gas monitors, and the heating, ventilation, and air concitioning (HVAC) systems for the control room and fuel handling building. The review verified conformance with applicable installation and testing requirements,10 CFR 50.59 safety evaluations, postmodification testing requirements, and operability determinations. The inspectors also interviewed engineering and operations personnel involved with the modification Obr ervations and Findinas The inspectors reviewed tb inajor modification performed under Design Change Pt;ckages 94-15610 anci 94-156-11, "ODPS Required Commitments", Revision Since this modification to the quality display parameter system (ODPS) required both hardware and software changes, Westinghouse was hired as the primary vendor for the modification.

i implemented during the Fall 1996 outage and the vendor's schedule was developed accordingly. Subsequently, the outage was moved up to May 1996, causing a ;

'

e compression in the vendor's development schedule. Although problems did arise f with the vendor's product, they were identified in the normal course of the i

licensee's engineering review and validation of the design changes. The 1 modification was implen ented without complications and the licensee had not :

identified any system operability or availability problem ;

f The inspectors also reviewed Design Change Package 94-3615-10, " Toxic Gas i Monitor Removal," and associated Unreviewed Safety Question Evaluation 95-0027 and Condition Report 95-9784. During the development of the padage for removal

^

cf the toxic gas monitors, the licensee had failed to remove one of the associated surveillance tests required by Technical Specification 4.7.7.e. The licensee identified this error and issued Condition Report 95-9784 to correct the problem.

4 The inspectors dewmined that the problem was ratisfactorily resolved.

.

i

! The inspectors also reviewed Plant Change Form 204649A, which removed battery

'

packs from the fuel handling building HVAC system actuators and replaced them with a Class-1E power feed from the 125 Vdc station batteries. The l implementation of this modification commenced in early 1995. In March 1996, the 1- flow transmitter for Train B of the fuel handling building HVAC system damper

'

failed, rendering Train B of fuel handling building HVAC inoperable. Condition Report 96-3056 and Licensee Event Report 96-02 indicated that the cause of the transmitter f ailure was the design change. The original plant change form and l modification review were found to be inadequate. The concerns associated with the design change implementation were due to less than adequate consideration of

all design input information and lack of confirmation of all design inputs.

< Condition Report 96-3056 and LER 96-02 documented comprehensive

,

investigations and corrective actions. These concerns were considered an isolated case t 2ed on review of other plant change forms. The corrective actions included y

not or.a equipment / component changes, but also program and process change These actions included: (1) the installation of a 125 to 24 Vdc power converter, connected to the loss-of-AC damper closure circuits of the fuel handling building

'

filtration system for both units, (2) a revision to the design change procedure to provide clearer guidance on gathering design inputs, (3) providing improved guidance for performance and documentation of design verification, and (4)

provided training and re-emphasis of management expectations on modification ownership and the use of a modification team concept for modification activitie E3.2 Condition Report Review i

' Inspection scope The inspectors reviewed Condition Report 95-1360 which identified potential I problems associated with the 125 Vdc power supply from the station batteries to the fuel handling building and control room HVAC systems. The inspectors also

i-7-reviewed Condition Report 96 3056, which documented the failure of the Train B fuel handling building exhaust system to operate in automatic mod Observations and Findinas The inspectors found that the condition reports were thorough and comprehensiv l

!

Condition Report 95-1360 addressed the concerns and the weaknesses of the new modification process. Because there were no actual equipment f ailures, most of the investigations and corrective actions revolved around programs and processes. The inspectors found that the corrective actions taken in response to the condition reports were adequate to prevent recurrence. The condition reports reviewed also generated operability and reportability evaluations which were reviewed by the inspectors and found to be adequate.

.

The inspectors interviewed four system engineers and five design engineers  ;

regarding the condition reporting process. All of the personnel interviewed l l

understood the condition reporting process, all said they were never discouraged or put under pressure by management from writing a condition report but were actually encouraged by management to do so. All were adamant that they would not hesitate to write a constion report, under any circumstances (work load, management pressure, etc.) if an issue was identifie E3.3 Conc,usions on Enaineerino Procedures and Documentation The inspectors concluded that two of the three selected modifications were properly

,

installed and successfully tested to ensure operability. The modification pertaining to the fuel handling building and control room HVAC system dampers initially was inadequate, but did not cause any immediate system failures. The condition report and LER issued in March 1996, due to transmitter failure of the fuel handling building HVAC damper, was a more thorough and comprehensive investigation of the problem than the previous efforts by the licensee. The current configuration

'

and status of the systems support operability.

E8 Miscellaneous Engineering Issues (92903)

E (Closed) Insoection Followuo item 498:499/93006-12: Pressure Lockino and Thermal Bindina of Gate Valves This item involved the licensee's efforts to complete reviews of the Generic Letter 89-10 motor-operated valve population for susceptibility to pressure locking and thermal binding and to take corrective actions, where necessary, to ensure valve operability. Subsequently, the NRC issued Generic Letter 95-07, " Pressure Locking and Thermal Binding of Safety-Related Power-Operated Gate Valves." The licensee's response to this generic letter is currently under review by the NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. This issue will be fully resolved under Generic Letter 95-07; therefore, this item is close *

8-E8.2 (Closed) LER 498/96-002: Failure to Meet Reovirements of TS due to not i Performina a Reauired Surveillance at an increased Freauency interval l On May 7,1996, while reviewing trending analysis data of an inservice test on Essential Chilled Water Pump 11 A, it was determined that on February 1,1996, Vibration Point 4H indicated that the high alert range was entered. The test record indicated that reviewers did not recognize that the alert range had been entered. An increase in testing frequency was required when the pump parameter entered the alert range. For Essential Chilled Water Pump 11 A, the normal quarterly testing frequency should have been increased to every 6 weeks when the alert range was entere The increase in testing frequency, required as a result of being in the alert range, had not been performed. The next inservice test of the pump, following the February 1,1996, test, was performed at the normal testing interval on April 24, 1996. Failure to perform increased frequency testing, when required, was a violation of TS 4.0.5 requirements for the performance of inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1,2, and 3 pumps in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code and applicable Addenda as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.55a(g). This licensee-identified and corrected violation is being tre-ted as a noncited violation, consistent with Section Vll.B.1 of the NRC Enforcemut Policy (498/96008-01).

The results of the April 24,1996, inservice test and of a subsequent test performed on May 13,1996, indicated Vibration Point 4H was within the acceptance rang No corrective maintenance had been performed on the pump between the test ;

performed on February 1,1996 and the subsequent April and May surveillance l tests. Vibration spectral analysis did not support any indication of pump degradation. The Vibration Point 4H test result from the February 1,1996 was determined to be inconsistent with other trending data and the pump was removed from increased testing frequency on May 21,199 Inservice test results for Essential Chilled Water Pump 11 A are typically recorded on a working copy of the test procedure in the field. The recorded results are compared with the acceptance values during test performance. After completion of the test, the results are transcribed to a controlled copy of the test procedure and then reviewed for approval. Although not conclusive, the Vibration Point 4H results may have been incorrectly transcribed to the controlled cooy of the test procedur Feedback from this event has been provided to the individuals involved. The lessons learned from this occurrence were provided to perr.onnel associated with Section XI inservice testing. The lessons learned included reinforcement of expectations regarding documentation and review of testing result *

l E8.3 (Statused Onen) Insoection Followuo item 498:499/9612-01: Auxiliary Feedwater System Performance imoact On November 14,1996, NRC staff members held a telephone conference with the licensee to discuss the performance of the auxiliary feedwater system with regard to the criteria in the licensee's safety analysis report and TS. The staff had expressed concern that automatic actuation of the auxiliary feedwater system, ,

following an uncomplicated reactor Pip, could possibly result in failure to satisfy the l design basis criteria of Section 4.4.1 of the safety analysis report. Further, the staff had expressed concern that the TS requirements for cooldown rate or shutdown margin could be violated for this condition. The concerns were predicated on the requirement of Section 10.4.9 of the safety analysis report which stated in part,

"Under any condition, the AFWS is capable of starting and operating unattended for G

at least 10 minutes."

The licensee responded that the requirements of Section 10.4.9 of the safety j l

analysis report were applicable only to Conditions ill and IV events (infrequent, complicated, or seve,re events). Since the NRC staff's concerns were with l Condition 11 events (uncomplicated trips), the 10 minutes of unattended operation l

'

did not apply. The licensee further stated that ANSI 58.8-1984, " Time Response Design Criteria for Nuclear Safety Related Operator Action," permitted optional i operator action for Condition il events after the first 5 minutes. The licensee further l indicated that operators were trained to take early manual control of the auxiliary l

,

'

feedwater system following an uncomplicated trip and, therefore, operator action would prevent exceeding cooldown rate limits and maintain minimum acceptable i shutdown margin.

,

The staff pointed out that the emergency operating procedures that would be in use following an uncomplicated trip did not expressly direct the operators to reduce the auxiliary feedwater injection rate to control cooldown. The licensee remarked that the emergency operating procedure users guide provided latitude for taking manual control of the auxiliary feedwater system early in event response to limit cooldow However, the licensee acknowledged that operators were not expected to reference the emergency operating procedure users guide as a part of emergency operating procedure imple:nentation. The staff further pointed out that a significant plant cooldown due to auxiliary feedwater system actuation following an uncomplicated trip was expected plant behavior; however, the licensee relied on the " Response Not Obtained" actions of emergency operating procedures to cue the operators to manually reduce auxiliary feedwater flow. At that point the licensee participants to the conference stated that they lacked the expertise to address the staff's concerns regarding emergency operating procedure adequacy. They requested that the staff schedule a subsequent meeting with licensee personnel knowledgeable in emergency operating procedure content and use requirement The staff cor cluded that the licensee's operation of the auxiliary feedwater system following ar uncomplicated trip did not conflict with the safety analysis report and

However, the inspection followup item will remain open pending a review of the adequacy of the emergency operating procedures with respect to this expected plant behavio E8.4 (Closed) Violation 498:499/95001-02: Failure to Perform Operability Test of Fire Detection instruments The inspectors found the corrective actions described in the licensee's response letter, dated April 5,1995, reasonable and complete. No similar problems were identified and the inspectors conciuded that the licensee's corrective action should be effectiv E8.5 (Statused Ooen) Followuo item 498:499/95001-01: Concern on Effectiveness of Fire Watch Trainina Proaram This item was previously opened pending an inspector review of changes to the fire watch training program to ensure that fire watch personnel were able to accurately identify the three classes of fires and the appropriate agents to extinguish the The licensee informed the inspectors that the lesson plans and the associated training film had been revised to improve the retention of the training regarding the class of fires and the types of extinguishers that should be used for various types of fire During this inspection, the inspectors interviewed four fire watch personnel and none were able to describe a Class C fire nor the type of fire extinguisher that should be used to extinguish it. However, the fire watch personnel interviewed were cognizant of their station fire watch responsibilities and duties. On November 7,1996, the licensee initiated Condition Report 96-13903 to evaluate and determine appropriate corrective actions to address this issue. The inspectors concluded that the revised lesson plan was not effc-etive in resolving the apparent lack of retention in training regarding the class of fire This item will remain open pending inspector review of the effectiveness of the corrective actions taken when Condition Report 96-13903 is close IV. PLANT SUPPORT R1 Radiological Protection and Chemistry Controls R 1.1 Tours of Radioloaical Controlled Areas (RCAs) Losoection Scope (71750)

The inspectors routinely toured the RCAs in Units 1 and 2. These tours included sampling of locked doors, observation of work and verification of proper radiological work permits, and observations of entrance and egress from the RCAs.
