INSPECTION PLAN POINT BEACH AFW FOLLOW-UP INSPECTION FOR A POTENTIAL OLD DESIGN ISSUE Point Beach - NRC Inspection Report Number 50-266/301-2002011(DRP)
Inspection Objectives This inspection will be conducted in follow-up to the issuance of a Red inspection finding and Notice of Violation associated with the licensee's Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW)
System. The objectives of this inspection are to:
(1)
Evaluate whether or not the Point Beach AFW system Red finding as described in a letter to the licensee dated July 12, 2002, should be treated as an old design issue in accordance with Manual Chapter 0305. This will include a review of the licensee's corrective actions, both taken and planned.
(2)
Determine whether or not the licensee's current corrective action program would have identified and evaluated the significance of the AFW issue. The licensee has stated that improvements to the corrective action program have occurred since the time that the original AFW issue was identified and inappropriately dispositioned in 1997.
(3)
Determine what programmatic mechanism the licensee has established to ensure that the licensee's Probabilistic Risk Assessment continues to be updated, and that an extent of condition is conducted to ascertain whether or not potential risk significant issues similar to the AFW one exist on other plant systems.
