SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting an integrated inspection at Diablo Canyon Power Plant Units 1 and 2 in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. Findings and violations being considered in the NRCs assessment are summarized in the table below.

Work Management 71111.20 - Refueling and Other Outage Activities The inspectors reviewed a Green, self-revealed non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a Procedures, because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of MA1.DC54, Conduct of Maintenance, Revision 15. Specifically, on March 20, 2018, with the reactor in Mode 3 during informal troubleshooting of high background count rate on source range nuclear instrument (NI) NI-32, PG&E personnel caused a short in NI cabinet B resulting in a blown fuse and the loss of power to the cabinet. This resulted in the loss of power to power range NI-42, intermediate range NI-36, source range NI-32, a reactor trip signal, a turbine trip signal, and all associated reactor protection interlocks. Power was automatically removed from the remaining source range NI due to reactor protection interlock P-10, resulting in no safety-related source range NI indication being available for control room operators.
Failure to Follow Operating Experience Procedures Results in Inadequate Screen of Operating Experience Report Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems Green FIN 05000323/2018001-02 Closed None 71152 - Problem Identification and Resolution The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program,
Revision 20. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to screen relevant operating experience relating to a safety-related centrifugal charging pump (CCP) journal bearing failure due to non-metallic anti-rotation pin shear failure. This operating experience notice was received by PG&E September 2011 and was not screened per OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program, preventing actions from being identified and implemented that could have eliminated vulnerabilities and prevented a similar event from occurring at DCPP. On November 11, 2017,
CCP 2-1 was declared inoperable and determined to be non-functional due to a damaged journal bearing caused by non-metallic, anti-rotation pin shear failure.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Improper Troubleshooting Results in Reactor Trip Signal and Loss of Source Range Nuclear Instrument Power Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems
Green NCV 05000323/2018001-01 Closed H.5 - Human Performance - Work Management
71111.20 - Refueling and
Other Outage Activities The inspectors reviewed a Green, self-revealed non-cited violation of Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1.a Procedures, because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of MA1.DC54, Conduct of Maintenance, Revision 15. Specifically, on March 20, 2018, with the reactor in Mode 3 during informal troubleshooting of high background count rate on source range nuclear instrument (NI) NI-32, PG&E personnel caused a short in NI cabinet B resulting in a blown fuse and the loss of power to the cabinet. This resulted in the loss of power to power range NI-42, intermediate range NI-36, source range NI-32, a reactor trip signal, a turbine trip signal, and all associated reactor protection interlocks. Power was automatically removed from the remaining source range NI due to reactor protection interlock P-10, resulting in no safety-related source range NI indication being available for control room operators.
Description:
On March 20, 2018, with the plant in Mode 3 at normal operating temperature and pressure, source range detector high voltage alignment of the NI-32 source range instrument could not be achieved during performance of STP I-4B4, Determination of Source Range Detector Characteristic Curves. This alignment is performed to establish appropriate baseline NI channel settings prior to reactor startup. An informal troubleshooting plan was subsequently developed to diagnose the source of potential electronic noise within the electronic circuitry that could be impacting the alignment. The informal troubleshooting plan consisted of installing an insulating metallic Faraday blanket around NI-32 power cables in the vicinity of the filter. The plan did not meet the requirements of MA1.DC54, Conduct of Maintenance, which requires, in part, that all work on plant systems, structures, or components (SSCs)should be performed using appropriate documentation such as work orders, notifications, procedures, or design drawings. No work order or work package was developed prior to the installation of the Faraday blanket. During installation of the Faraday blanket, the blanket inadvertently made contact with an exposed terminal causing a short in NI cabinet B and the main power fuse to fail, removing power from the cabinet. The loss of power to the cabinet resulted in the loss of power to power range NI-42, intermediate range NI-36, and source range NI-32. A second power range NI (NI-44) was already out of service at the time of the event. The loss of power to two of four power range NIs resulted in the two out of four coincidence logic being met for the reactor protection system (RPS) power range high flux trip, hi power trip, and low power trip. As a result, the reactor trip breakers opened, and the main turbine tripped. At the time of the event, all control rods were unlatched and fully inserted.
Additionally, the coincidence logic was made up for interlocks P-10, P-9, and P-8 resulting in power being removed from both source range NIs. Source range NIs are safety-related instruments relied upon in Mode 3 to protect against rod withdrawal accidents (source range hi flux RPS trip), inadvertent criticality from unanticipated reactor coolant system (RCS) dilution, and to provide indication to plant operators. As a result of the event and in accordance with applicable TS action statements, PG&E personnel stopped all activities that could add positive reactivity to the RCS, verified shutdown margin, and verified that the reactor trip breakers were open. For the duration of loss of power to the source range NIs, PG&E personnel were able to rely upon non-safety-related, post-accident monitoring NIs to provide indication of neutron activity with the core. Power was restored to one of the two safety-related source range NIs after approximately 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. Additional troubleshooting and engineering evaluations allowed PG&E personnel to restore power to NI cabinet B and complete STP I-4B4.
Corrective Actions: After the issue occurred, PG&E initiated corrective actions including replacement of the blown fuse and additional troubleshooting in accordance with applicable procedures.
Corrective Action References: Notification 50971776
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that PG&Es failure to follow MA1.DC54, Conduct of Maintenance, Revision 15, when diagnosing high background count rate on source range NI-32, was a performance deficiency within PG&Es ability to foresee and correct.
Screening: The performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, improper troubleshooting of source range NI-32 resulted in the loss of power to NI cabinet B and a subsequent reactor trip signal, associated interlocks, and a loss of power to both source range NIs which were required to be in service by TS at the time of the event.
Significance: Because the plant was in Mode 3 at normal operating temperature and pressure with decay heat removal secured, the finding was evaluated in accordance with Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings-At-Power, dated June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined that the finding screened to Green because it did not result in an actual loss of safety function of at least a single train for greater than its TS allowed outage time.
Cross-cutting Aspect: This finding is related to the cross-cutting area of Human Performance
- Work Management [H.5] because PG&E personnel did not implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority.
Specifically, during troubleshooting, PG&E personnel failed to develop an appropriate work order or instruction that would protect against inadvertently causing electrical transients within the NI cabinet.
Enforcement:
Violation: TS 5.4.1.a, Procedures, requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A. RG 1.33, Appendix A requires, in part, that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly pre-planned and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances. Procedure MA1.DC54, Conduct of Maintenance, requires, in part, that all work on plant systems, structures, or components (SSCs) should be performed using appropriate documentation such as work orders, notifications, procedures, or design drawings.
Contrary to the above, on March 20, 2018, no work order or work package was developed prior to the installation of a Faraday blanket in NI cabinet B. During installation of the Faraday blanket, the blanket inadvertently made contact with an exposed terminal causing a short in NI cabinet B and the main power fuse to actuate, removing power from the cabinet and causing an RPS reactor trip actuation, turbine trip, and loss of power to both safety-related source range NI channels. After the issue occurred, PG&E entered it into the corrective action program as Notification 50971776 and initiated corrective actions including replacement of the blown fuse and additional troubleshooting.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Failure to Follow Operating Experience Procedures Results in Inadequate Screen of Operating Experience Report Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems
Green FIN 05000323/2018001-02 Closed None
71152 - Problem
Identification and Resolution The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program, Revision 20. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to screen relevant operating experience relating to a safety-related centrifugal charging pump (CCP) journal bearing failure due to non-metallic anti-rotation pin shear failure. This operating experience notice was received by PG&E September 2011 and was not screened per OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program, preventing actions from being identified and implemented that could have eliminated vulnerabilities and prevented a similar event from occurring at DCPP. On November 11, 2017, CCP 2-1 was declared inoperable and determined to be non-functional due to a damaged journal bearing caused by non-metallic, anti-rotation pin shear failure.
Description:
On September 7, 2011, PG&E received an external operating experience report describing the failure of CCP outboard and inboard motor bearings caused by a non-metallic anti-rotation pin age-related failure. The failure of the anti-rotation pin allowed the journal style bearings to rotate resulting in the oil slinger ring being prevented from adequately lubricating the bearing.
This lack of bearing lubrication subsequently caused bearing damage and failure. The applicable PG&E operating experience procedure in place at the time, OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program, Revision 20, required that operating experience reports received by the site be screened per applicability per Section 5.3, Screening and Disseminating OPEX Documents. Section 5.3 required that relevant operating experience is screened by subject matter experts and appropriate corrective actions assigned to eliminate vulnerabilities and prevent a similar event from occurring at DCPP. When questioned, PG&E personnel were unable to identify any record of operating experience screening or corrective action documents generated as a result of the receipt of external operating experience report.
On November 7, 2017, a CCP 2-1 outboard motor bearing alarm was received in the DCPP Unit 2 control room. Further investigation revealed erratic bearing temperature indications and oil slinger ring movement, and a lack of oil present in the outboard bearing sight glass or tube while the motor was running. CCP 2-1 was subsequently secured and declared inoperable and an investigation was commenced. Upon disassembly of the outboard motor bearing for CCP 2-1, the bearing non-metallic anti-rotation pin was found broken in two pieces and the bearing was found shifted approximately 25 degrees. The bearing babbitt lining surface was damaged due to rotor-to-bearing contact. A PG&E cause evaluation determined that shear failure of the non-metallic, anti-rotation pin allowed the outboard motor bearing to rotate in the bearing housing, impinging the bearing on the oil slinger ring and preventing it from lubricating the pump shaft adequately. This resulted in damage to the bearing and CCP 2-1 being declared inoperable and unavailable for use for a period of approximately 4 days. Prior to the November 7, 2011, CCP 2-1 start and subsequent bearing failure, CCP 2-1 was last operated on September 18, 2017.
Corrective Actions: After the issue was identified by the inspectors, PG&E entered the issue into the corrective action program and initiated corrective actions including replacement of the CCP 2-1 outboard bearing, periodic inspection of all safety-related pump motors with susceptible bearings to verify that bearings have not rotated, and scheduled replacement of all bearing anti-rotation pins susceptible to a similar failure mechanism. The licensee determined that the Operating Experience coordinator position had been vacant between approximately December 15, 2011, and February 9, 2012, and that over 300 operating experience reports were received by the site which were not appropriately screened during this time period. Each of these reports will be properly screened for relevance to the site.
Corrective Action References: Notifications 50949662 and 50958899
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that PG&Es failure to screen relevant operating experience relating to a safety-related CCP journal bearing failure in accordance with OM4.ID3, Operating Experience Program, Revision 20, was a performance deficiency within PG&Es ability to foresee and correct.
Screening: This performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to appropriately screen operating experience prevented the implementation of actions that could have prevented a subsequent outboard journal bearing failure of safety-related CCP 2-1 and resulted in the pump being declared inoperable and non-functional.
Significance: The finding was evaluated in accordance with Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings-At-Power, dated June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined that a detailed risk evaluation by an NRC senior reactor analyst was required since the finding was associated with a loss of function of at least a single train of safety-related equipment for greater than its TS allowed outage time.
The regional senior reactor analyst performed a Phase 3 SDP analysis for the finding. The analyst used the DCPP 1 & 2 SPAR model, Version 8.54, to evaluate the risk of the finding.
The analyst noted that there was a difference between the success criteria in the Plant Information e-Book and the Fault Tree FAB, Feed and Bleed, regarding the success of the charging system during feed and bleed operations. The e-Book suggested that any single High Pressure Safety Injection or Charging Pump could be used to successfully complete the function. However, the Fault Tree FAB failed the feed and bleed function if the charging pumps failed, regardless of the availability of the safety-injection pumps. Personnel from Idaho National Laboratory informed the analyst that the change to the model was made at all PWRs based on the NUREG/CR-2187, Confirmatory Thermal-Hydraulic Analysis to Support Specific Success Criteria in the Standardized Plant Analysis Risk Models-Byron Unit 1, evaluation of Byron. In this study, the MELCOR runs suggested that feed and bleed would fail for scenarios with a single safety-injection pump and a single pressurizer pilot-operated relief valve. The analyst noted that DCPP had three pressurizer PORVs and the licensee had MAPP runs showing successful feed and bleed with a single safety-injection pump. Therefore, for this evaluation, the analyst used the plant-specific information to modify the SPAR model to show feed and bleed success for a single safety-injection pump.
Using the modified SPAR model, the analyst quantified a new baseline core damage frequency of 6.15 x 10-6/year and a case conditional core damage probability of 6.43 x 10-6 over a 1-year period. As a bounding assumption, the analyst used an exposure time of 133 days, which represented the time over which the pump had been tested and accumulated a run time of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The resulting incremental conditional core damage probability was 1.02 x 10-7. The analyst identified two items that, if fully evaluated, would reduce this probability further. Specifically, early in the exposure time, the charging pump would have functioned for many hours providing time for recovery of other components and reducing the decay heat load. Also, at the time of discovery, the pump was still functioning and would have continued to run for some unknown period of time had it been the last defense against core damage. As a result, the analyst determined, qualitatively, that the incremental conditional core damage probability was less than 1.0 x 10-7 (Green).
Cross-cutting Aspect: A cross-cutting aspect was not assigned to the finding since the finding did not represent current licensee performance. The performance deficiency occurred when operating experience was received and improperly dispositioned by PG&E in September 2011.
Enforcement:
Enforcement action does not apply because the performance deficiency did not involve a violation of a regulatory requirement.
Unresolved Item (Closed)
Applicability of required NDE inspections on the Lift Yoke in accordance with ANSI N14.6 URI 07200026/2016001-01 60855.1 - Operation of an ISFSI at Operating Plants
Description:
During the routine ISFSI inspection conducted on September 19-24, 2016, a URI was identified and documented Inspection Report 05000275/2016011, 05000323/2016011, and 07200026/2016001 (ADAMS Accession No ML16323A110).
After spent fuel is loaded into a Multi-Purpose Canister (MPC), DCPP utilizes a lift yoke to lift the Holtec HI-TRAC transfer cask and MPC from the spent fuel pool to a cask wash-down pit.
The MPC is then welded and dried before moving the MPC to the ISFSI for storage.
DCPPs lift yoke is designated as a special lifting device and is classified as Important to Safety (ITS). The DCPP ISFSI Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Section 4.4.1.3.1 states:
The transfer-cask-lifting trunnions and the lift yoke are designed, fabricated, inspected, maintained, and tested in accordance with NUREG-0612, Control of Heavy Loads, to ensure that structural failures of these items are not credible.
NUREG-0612 Section 5.1(4) states: Special lifting devices should satisfy the guidelines of American National Standards Institute (ANSI) N14.6, Radioactive Materials - Special Lifting Devices for Shipping Containers Weighing 10,000 Pounds or More.
ANSI N.14.6 (1993 version), Section 6.3.1 stated that each special lifting device shall be subjected annually to load testing and a visual inspection; or if the load testing is omitted, to dimensional testing, visual inspection, and nondestructive examination (NDE) of major load-carrying welds and critical areas.
During the routine ISFSI inspection conducted in September 2016, it was identified that DCPP had been performing dimensional and visual inspections on its lift yoke in accordance with the ANSI standard during annual inspections, but had not been performing the NDE inspections on critical areas of the lift yoke. The inspectors found that DCPP had been following Holtec (the cask vendor) guidance that stated the lift yoke did not have any critical areas and that NDE inspections of the lift yoke were not required. Holtec provided DCPP with Response to Request for Technical Information 2655-2 which documented the vendors position of why no critical areas existed and as such the NDE was not required. This position to not perform NDE on the lift yoke as part of the annual maintenance was identified by NRC Region IV inspectors as differing from other Region IV sites that utilize the Holtec systems. Other sites in Region IV do perform NDE inspections on their lift yokes in accordance with the ANSI standard on an annual basis. Since this appeared to be a non-conservative approach and it did not match the maintenance activities associated with other Region IV Holtec system users, the inspectors forwarded the information in a Technical Assistance Request (TAR) to NRC Headquarters Division of Spent Fuel Management (DSFM) for their assistance in this review and opened a URI to document the resolution of the issue.
The DSFM staff noted in the TAR response, dated November 7, 2017, that the term critical area was not explicitly defined in the ANSI N14.6 (1993) standard. For guidance, DSFM re-examined the definition of a critical load in Section 3.4 of ANSI N14.6 which states: Any lifted load whose uncontrolled movement or release could adversely affect any safety-related system when such system is required for unit safety or could result in potential off-site exposures.
Therefore, to avoid any uncontrolled movement of the critical load, those components of the lift yoke which could induce an uncontrolled movement if they fail (facture critical members where redundancy is not provided) were viewed by the DSFM staff as critical areas. The components that were determined to contain critical areas came from the drawing titled, Diablo Canyon HI-TRAC Lift Yoke Ancillary #702. The drawing, on page 11 of 13, tabulates 27 components that make up the lift yoke. Of these, components 1, 5, 6, 16, and 17 are fracture critical components. Holtec designated these as being ITS Category A. The DSFM determined that these items shall be maintained in accordance with the ANSI N14.6 standard Section 6.3.1 to perform NDE inspections on the items on an annual basis.
Federal regulation 10 CFR 72.146 states, in part, that licensees shall establish measures to ensure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as specified in the license for those structures, systems, and components to which this section applies, are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions.
Since the lift yoke is classified as an Important-to-Safety component, the licensees FSAR Section 4.4.1.3.1 required the lift yoke be maintained in accordance with the NUREG 0612 which invoked the ANSI standard, and the DFSM staff has interpreted that the lift yoke does contain critical areas, the licensee is required to perform annual NDE inspections on the lift yoke. Contrary to the above, DCPPs Work Order 64125530 Lift Yoke Annual Inspection, only required dimensional and visual inspection on the lift yoke and not NDE testing of critical areas as required by the ANSI N14.6 standard.
Closure Basis:
Since the DCPP had been performing the visual and dimensional testing in accordance with the ANSI N14.6 standard, entered the issue into their corrective action program (Notifications 50872940 and 50882291), and subsequently performed the NDE examination on the lift yoke and did not find any indications nor discrepancies on the critical areas of the lift yoke, the NRC has determined this failure to perform annual NDE inspections on the critical areas of the lift yoke in accordance with 10 CFR 72.146 requirements constitutes a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with Section 2 of the NRCs Enforcement Policy.
Inspectors confirmed that the licensee had initiated the appropriate change of the lift yokes Preventative Maintenance Plan MP 25358 per Notification 50953427 to include NDE on the critical areas of the lift yoke for future annual maintenance activities.
