IP 71111.08, Inservice Inspection IP 71111.17, Permanent Plant Modifications IP 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems IP 73051, Inservice Inspection - Review of Program IP 73052, Inservice Inspection - Review of Procedures IP 93812, Special Inspection IP 95001, Inspection For One Or Two White Inputs In A Strategic Performance Area IP 95002, Inspection For One Degraded Cornerstone Or Any Three White Inputs In a Strategic Performance Area IP 95003, Supplemental Inspection For Repetitive Degraded Cornerstone, Multiple Degraded Cornerstone, Multiple Yellow Inputs, Or One Red Input In addition, the inspectors will consider the guidance of Generic Letters 88-05 and 97-01, Information Notice 86-108 and Supplements, Bulletin 82-02, and others as a part of the inspection effort.
Because of the nexus of individual program shortcomings, revisions, and the subsequent assessments to many of root and contributing causes for the reactor vessel head corrosion event, each of the program assessment reviews will incorporate aspects of IPs 95001, 95002, and 95003, as appropriate.
IV. Inspection Requirements The inspection will focus on evaluating the depth, completeness, and accuracy of the licensees assessment of the health of the selected programs which contributed to the reactor vessel head corrosion event.
The NRC staffs inspection efforts will include independent assessment of the licensees conclusions based upon risk-informed samples of relevant materials [condition reports, procedures, program outlines, recent program changes, plant modifications], walkdowns of plant equipment and surveillance results associated with the inservice inspection efforts, and interviews with responsible licensee staff and management. The depth and breadth of these efforts will be guided by the referenced procedures.
Specific inspection requirements will include:
A) Review and evaluate the licensees Building Block program plan and applicable parts of the licensees Return-to-Service Plan, Restart Action Plan, and Restart Action Process. The effort should address the applicable root and contributing causes.
B) Review and evaluate the methodology and acceptance criteria used to identify programs for Phase 1 and Phase 2 reviews.
C) Review and evaluate a sampling of completed Phase 1 program reviews for depth and completeness.
D) Review and evaluate 6 of the 7 Phase 2 program effectiveness assessments for depth and completeness. The reviews will consider the:
proper application of the guiding review procedure;
identification and resolution of issues documented in the prior root and contributing cause evaluations;
identification, assignment, and inclusion in applicable programmatic procedures of critical roles, responsibilities, and interfaces;
identification and application of appropriate programmatic performance assessment criteria and feedback mechanisms, and;
independent assessment of the identification and resolution of past issues develop by or associated with the program.
E) Review and evaluate the effectiveness of the licensees Inservice Inspection Program including the attributes of IPs 71111.08, 73051, 73052, and other related procedures.
V. RITS and Level of Effort Docket No. 05000346 Report No. 2002-11 Approximately 90 to 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of direct inspection effort is anticipated for each week of onsite inspection [3 inspectors
- 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> / week]. Generally, individual inspection effort should be charged to IP 93812 with an IPE code of SEP for preparation efforts, ER for inspection efforts, and SED for documentation efforts. Inspection efforts associated with the assessment of the inservice inspection program should be charged to the base line program inspection procedure of 71111.08 with IPE codes of BIP, BI, BID, as appropriate.
VI. Findings The safety significance of inspection findings will be determined through MC-0609, Significance Determination Process, with additional information from the Risk-Informed Inspection Notebook for Davis Besse.
VII. Documentation The report will be prepared in accordance with MC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports. Please review Appendix B, Threshold for Documentation, in the above document to ensure consistency within the agency.
