Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station May 6, 2003

Management Actions Management and Human Performance Root Cause Statement:

  • There was less than an adequate nuclear safety focus

- There was a focus on production, established by management, combined with taking minimum actions to meet regulatory requirements, that resulted in the acceptance of degraded conditions 5

High Pressure Injection Pump

Background

  • Identified an issue between potential debris and the existing internal pump clearances

- Pumps hydrostatic bearing clearances are less than Containment Emergency Sump strainer mesh

- Debris in water from the containment emergency sump could potentially block the ports that provide lubrication to the hydrostatic bearings resulting in pump failure

  • Options to address issue include:

- Replacement with HPI pumps that are not susceptible to this degradation mechanism

- Modify existing pumps to add internal strainer to prevent debris from entering bearing 21 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station May 6, 2003

Technical Discussion of HPI Options The Technical Merits of Each Replacement Option:

  • George Beam, Senior Vice President - Framatome Modification Option:
  • Bob Coward, Director of Nuclear Services - MPR Decision focus: What is right for the plant 22 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station May 6, 2003

High Pressure Injection Pump Replacement Option Scope

  • Final acceptance test procedure
  • Participate in final acceptance testing 23 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station May 6, 2003

High Pressure Injection Pump Current Status/Work in Progress

  • Project approach is self-managed work team
  • Two pumps and motors procured

- In OEMs shop for upgrades and checkout

- Pumps physically larger

Safety Conscious Work Environment Survey Analysis

  • Survey questions on Harassment, Intimidation, Retaliation and Discrimination (HIRD) lacked clear focus to 50.7 issue
  • Responses to HIRD questions were not clearly stated
  • Responses are more consistent with recent (ECP) and Safety Culture survey results.

- Worker concern about schedule pressure and directive management rather than 50.7 HIRD concerns 41 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station May 6, 2003
