REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant Status:
Unit 1 began the inspection period operating at 100 percent Rated Thermal Power (RTP). On
August 26, 2004, power was reduced to 40 percent to repair a leak in the 'B' low pressure
service water supply header and the 1A1 low pressure feedwater heater relief valve that lifted
spuriously and failed to reseat. The Unit was returned to 100 percent RTP on August 28, 2004,
and remained there for the remainder of the inspection period.
Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent RTP. On September 7, 2004, power was
gradually reduced in accordance with Reactor Engineering instructions as part of the reactor
coolant average temperature coastdown associated with the Unit 2 end-of-cycle (EOC) 13
refueling outage. The Unit was removed from service on September 11, 2004, for refueling and
maintenance activities.

a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed two separate reviews of the effectiveness of the licensees
severe weather protection program pertaining to the actual and projected adverse
weather conditions associated with the following two adverse weather conditions:
- Hurricane Charley during the period of August 13 - 14, 2004
- Hurricane Frances during the period of September 3 - 6, 2004
These reviews included field walkdowns to identify items that could become potential
missiles and the status of drainage measures in outside locations, including the areas
surrounding the main transformers, the reactor, auxiliary and turbine buildings, cooling
towers, and main switchyard. The inspectors discussed with licensed operators, the
specific measures to be taken during the periods when high winds and flooding were
experienced and conducted a walkdown of control room and in-plant equipment related
to protection from these conditions. The inspectors met with Emergency Planning
personnel to discuss activities taken to ensure the site was prepared for the expected
wind and rain conditions and reviewed the completed attachments to the station
Response Procedure to Severe Weather. Documents reviewed/generated during this
inspection are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

1R02 Evaluations of Changes, Tests or Experiments
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed selected samples of evaluations to confirm that the licensee
had appropriately considered the conditions under which changes to the facility or
procedures may be made, and tests conducted, without prior NRC approval. The
inspectors reviewed evaluations for various design and procedure changes. The
inspectors reviewed additional information, such as calculations, supporting analyses
and drawings to determine if the licensee had appropriately concluded that the changes
could be accomplished without obtaining a license amendment. The eight evaluations
reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.
The inspectors also reviewed samples of design/engineering packages and procedure
changes for which the licensee had determined that evaluations were not required, to
verify that the licensees conclusions to screen out these changes were correct and
consistent with 10 CFR 50.59. The fourteen screened out changes reviewed are listed
in the Attachment to this report.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective action program and self-assessments
of the 50.59 process to confirm that the licensee was identifying 10 CFR 50.59 issues,
entering issues into the corrective action program, and resolving concerns.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

performance of licensed operators. The session utilized Task Requirement Guide OP-
CN-PTRQ-S-04, which included three scenarios involving a loss of residual heat
removal capabilities with the unit shutdown under various configurations and decay heat
loads. The inspection focused on high-risk operator actions performed during
implementation of the abnormal operating procedures, emergency plan implementation
5
and classification, and the incorporation of lessons learned from previous plant events
and simulator sessions. Through observations of the critique conducted by training
instructors following the exam session, the inspectors assessed whether appropriate
feedback was provided to the licensed operators regarding identified weaknesses.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Program Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the facility operating history and associated documents in
preparation for this inspection. During the week of August 30 - September 3, 2004, the
inspectors reviewed documentation, interviewed licensee personnel, and observed the
administration of operating tests associated with the licensees operator requalification
program. Each of the activities performed by the inspectors was done to assess the
effectiveness of the licensee in implementing requalification requirements identified in
10 CFR Part 55, Operators Licenses. The evaluations were also performed to
determine if the licensee effectively implemented operator requalification guidelines
established in NUREG 1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power
Reactors, and Inspection Procedure 71111.11, Licensed Operator Requalification
Program. The inspectors also evaluated the licensees simulation facility for adequacy
for use in operator licensing examinations using ANSI/ANS-3.5-1998. The inspectors
observed four crews during the performance of the operating tests. Documentation
reviewed included written examinations, Job Performance Measures (JPMs), simulator
scenarios, licensee procedures, on-shift records, licensed operator qualification records,
watchstanding and medical records, simulator modification request records and
performance test records, the feedback process, and remediation plans. The records
were inspected using the criteria listed in Procedure 71111.11. Documents reviewed
during the inspection are listed in the Attachment to this report.
Following the completion of the annual operating tests, which ended on September 3,
2004, the inspectors reviewed the overall pass/fail results of the biennial written
examination, the individual JPM operating tests, and the simulator operating tests
administered by the licensee during the operator licensing requalification cycle. These
results were compared to the thresholds established in Manual Chapter 609, Appendix I,
Operator Requalification Human Performance Significance Determination Process.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness

4OA1 Performance Indicator Verification
.1 Mitigating Systems Cornerstone
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors sampled licensee submittals for the performance indicators (PIs) listed
below for the period from June 2003 through May 2004. To verify the accuracy of the PI
data reported during that period, PI definitions and guidance contained in Nuclear
Energy Institute (NEI) 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline,
Rev. 2, were used to verify the basis in reporting for each data element.
- Auxiliary Feedwater System Safety System Unavailability, Unit 1
- Auxiliary Feedwater System Safety System Unavailability, Unit 2
The inspectors reviewed a selection of Licensee Event Reports, portions of Unit 1 and
Unit 2 operator log entries, PIP descriptions, monthly operating reports, and PI data
sheets to verify that the licensee had adequately identified the number of unavailability
hours and safety system functional failures. These numbers were compared to the
numbers reported for the PIs.
b. Findings

b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution
.1 Daily Screening of Items Entered Into the Corrective Action Program
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems,
and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance
issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the
licensees corrective action program. This review was accomplished by reviewing
copies of PIPs, attending some daily screening meetings, and accessing the licensees
computerized database.
.2 Annual Sample Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected two PIP documents for detailed review. PIP C-03-6458
identified an adverse trend associated with foreign material exclusion. The second PIP,
C-03-6007, involved a seal failure on the 1A ND pump. Both documents involved root
cause investigations that were reviewed to ensure that the full extent of the issues were
identified, an appropriate evaluation was performed, and appropriate corrective actions
were specified and prioritized. The inspectors evaluated the PIP documents against the
requirements of the licensees corrective action program, Nuclear System Directive 208,
Problem Investigation Process, and 10 CFR 50 Appendix B.

4OA5 Other Activities
(Closed) Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/152, Inspection of Reactor Pressure Vessel
Lower Head Penetration Nozzles
The inspectors verified that qualified and knowledgeable licensee individuals performed
the inspection of the Unit 2 lower vessel head penetration nozzles. These individuals
were qualified VT-2 Level II examiners. The inspectors verified that the inspection was
performed in accordance with the licensees approved procedure. This procedure was
written to be able to identify, disposition, and resolve deficiencies and any pressure
boundary leakage. The inspection of the vessel penetrations was performed by 360
degree visual inspection with the appropriate lighting and mirrors. The inspection did
not identify any deficiencies or pressure boundary leakage. There were slight boric
acid deposits at the interface of the vessel and nozzle penetrations at six (6)
penetrations. In addition, there was some surface streaming boric acid residue on the
reactor vessel outer surface. Samples were taken from all six penetrations with
surrounding boric acid deposits, as well as some of the surface residue, and analyzed
by the licensee to confirm the origination of the boric acid. The licensee analysis
followed the Electric Power Research Institute boric acid aging recommendations and
compared the ratio of cobalt 58 and cobalt 60. The analysis indicated that the boric acid
deposits and residue were the result of previous reactor cavity seal leakage. The
inspectors independent review of the lower vessel head penetrations and licensee
documentation of surface samples found no evidence of material deficiencies. The
inspectors verified through a review of the 2EOC-13 refueling outage schedule that
washing of the bottom head area and documentation of the as-left condition will be
completed prior to the Unit 2 restart. Bare metal examinations have been performed
for both Unit 1 and Unit 2 lower vessels and penetration nozzles and the inspections
associated with this TI have been completed. Documents reviewed during this
inspection are listed in the Attachment to this report.
