The inspectors reviewed Amergens external flooding mitigation strategy including applicable sections of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR Section 2.6.4, Flood Studies,) and historic issue reports (IRs) (IR 596193, 584738, and 310344). The inspectors verified compensatory measures outlined in Emergency Procedure 1202-32, Flood, Rev. 61, to ensure adequate protection against flood damage for risk significant equipment. The review included floor drains, flood gates, structures, and sumps in the A and B emergency diesel generator rooms (305' elev.), and the auxiliary building (281' and 305 elev.). In addition, the inspectors reviewed the most recent system health overview report for the Dike/Flood Control System, and interviewed station personnel and the flood protection system engineer.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness (71111.12)

a. Inspection Scope (4 quarterly samples)

The inspectors evaluated Maintenance Rule (MR) implementation for the following:

MR scoping, characterization of failed structures, systems, and components (SSCs),

MR risk categorization of SSCs, SSC performance criteria or goals, and appropriateness of corrective actions. Additionally, extent of condition follow-up, operability, and functional failure determinations were reviewed to verify they were appropriate. The inspectors verified that the issues were addressed as required by 10 CFR 50.65, Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants; Nuclear Management and Resources Council (NUMARC) 93-01, Industry Guideline for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants, Rev. 2, and AmerGen procedure ER-AA-310, Implementation of the Maintenance Rule, Rev. 5. The inspectors verified that appropriate corrective actions were initiated and documented in IRs, and that engineers properly categorized failures Enclosure

4 as maintenance rule functional failures and maintenance preventable functional failures when applicable.

  • IR 628113 describes erratic A emergency diesel generator control at initial loading during in service testing per procedure 1303-4.16, Emergency Power System, Rev. 113.
  • IR 620846 describes that nuclear river pump NR-P-1C failed to start from the control room after its breaker had been racked out to support divers de-silting clean-up of the screen house. The inspectors verified that the pump has been successfully stopped and re-started multiple times since this event.
  • IRs 619545, 619896, 619532, and 619530 describe multiple issues with fire service pump FS-P-3 identified during a post maintenance test run. The issues included high fuel pressure, a sheared 1" brass fitting, and several other fitting leaks.
  • IR 636857 documents a degraded A 125 volt station battery ground resistence condition, reading 6 kilo-ohms. Following 10 days of investigation, technicians isolated the ground to station battery cells #72 and 73. Electrolyte weeping past the battery cell seal had saturated wooden spacer boards and created a ground path to the seismic battery support racks. Engineers concluded a manufacturing deficiency permitted the electrolyte leakage and affected numerous battery cells on each 125 volt station battery train. Immediate corrective actions were appropriate to eliminate the ground, and the battery remained operable. The inspectors identified that follow-up corrective actions were incomplete and untimely (IRs 638168 and 640137). Subsequent corrective actions included increased vendor oversight.
b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control (71111.13)

a. Inspection Scope (6 samples)

The inspectors reviewed scheduling, control, and restoration during the following maintenance activities to evaluate the effect on plant risk. This review was against criteria contained in AmerGen Administrative Procedure 1082.1, TMI Risk Management Program, Rev. 5 and WC-AA-101, On-Line Work Control Process, Rev. 12.

  • In the entire Month of April, 2007, divers performed de-silting of the TMI pump bay area for multiple safety and non-safety related pumps. This condition elevated the on-line maintenance risk profile to yellow (Risk Document 663, Rev.

4).

Enclosure

  • On April 8, the B emergency diesel generator was removed from service for a scheduled two year inspection and maintenance activities. The condition elevated the online maintenance risk profile to yellow (Risk Document 814, Rev.

2).

  • On April 18 and 19, the B decay heat removal and building spray system trains were removed from service for scheduled maintenance activities. The condition elevated the online maintenance risk profile to orange (Risk Document 831, Rev.

17).

  • On May 7, the A decay heat removal and building spray system trains were removed from service for scheduled maintenance activities. The condition elevated the online maintenance risk profile to orange (Risk Document 1133, Rev. 6).
  • On June 6-7, technicians removed a temporary repair from a through wall leak on the nuclear river water common supply header to support taking ultrasonic measurements of the piping flaw. Flaw measurements revealed that the micro biologic induced corrosion (MIC) rate was greater than previously analyzed.

Contingencies were established to maintain the other river water cooling systems available while the operability evaluation was updated and the temporary repair was reinstalled.

  • On June 20, the B decay heat removal train was removed from service for scheduled corrective maintenance on flow transmitter (DH-FT-809). Station risk was assessed and downgraded from orange to green (Risk Document 711, Rev.

4).

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R15 Operability Evaluations (71111.15)

a. Inspection Scope (4 samples)

The inspectors reviewed operability evaluations for the following degraded equipment issues. The inspectors verified that degraded conditions in question were properly characterized, operability of the affected systems was properly evaluated in relation to Technical Specification (TS) requirements, that applicable extent of condition reviews were performed, and no unrecognized increase in plant risk resulted from the equipment issues. The inspectors referenced NRC Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) Part 9900, Operable/Operability-Ensuring the Functional Capability of a System Component and AmerGen procedure OP-AA-108-115, Operability Determinations, Rev. 1, to determine acceptability of the operability evaluations.

Enclosure

  • On March 5, 2007, the inspectors identified that the auxiliary building sump level could exceed design basis assumptions because the level was being administratively controlled by operators at the limit established in design calculations. Specifically, the Auxiliary Building Sump Flooding Analysis (C-1101-573-E410-004, Rev. 1), assumes the initial auxiliary sump level is less than 3 feet when determining the time available for operators to respond to leakage into the safety related building spray (BS) and decay heat (DH) system vaults.

Engineering determined that although at times the auxiliary sump level had slightly exceeded the <3 foot administrative limit stated in operating procedure 1104-40, Plant Sump and Drainage System, Rev. 49, operability of the BS and DH system components was not affected (IR 599856).

  • On April 3, operators observed increased through wall leakage on two previously identified MIC locations on a nuclear river water (NRW) system pipe.

Engineering determined that the system was operable and that ASME Code Case 513-1 applied which supported this determination (IR 608589, 613770, 611631, 610963).

  • On April 10, engineers documented that a cam roller bushing material deficiency identified by the EDGs manufacturer (Fairbanks Morse) under 10 CFR Part 21, may be applicable to TMI, Unit 1. Engineering determined that based on available procurement records and operational history of the TMI EDGs, this material deficiency did not apply to TMI and operability of the EDGs was not affected (IR 615417).
  • On April 23, engineers identified fuel assembly guide tube growth due to irradiation in the core, was beyond the analyzed amount. This phenomenon pertained to model B-12 fuel assemblies and guide tubes made of B-5 zircaloy material (IR 620760). Operability evaluation OPE-07-003, Mark B-12 Fuel Assemblies, Rev. 0 determined the fuel assemblies, control rods, reactor internals, and fuel cladding fission product barrier remained operable provided the reactor coolant system (RCS) was maintained > 525 degrees F. A revised engineering evaluation will be required if RCS temperature goes below 525 degrees F.
b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

1R17 Permanent Plant Modifications (71111.17)

a. Inspection Scope (2 annual samples)

The inspectors reviewed the following modifications to determine whether they were designed and/or implemented as required by CC-AA-102, Design Input and Configuration Change Impact Screening, Rev. 10 and CC-AA-103, Configuration Change Control, Rev. 9. The inspectors verified the modifications supported plant Enclosure

7 operation as described in the UFSAR and complied with associated TS requirements.

The inspectors reviewed the function of changed components, the change description and scope, and the associated 10 CFR 50.59 screening evaluations.

  • OP-TM-621-472, Adjusting ULD Star Module Setpoint, Rev. 1, to reduce nuisance computer alarms (C3560) and maintain the average core thermal power at or below the limit.
  • Engineering Change Request #TM 07-00407, De-icing Line Replacement for CO-T-1A, Rev. 0 was installed to isolate and replace a leaking 4" underground line. This line had become corroded and leaked condensate containing tritium inside of the protected area. The inspectors evaluated installation of line stops with an access flange above ground on both ends of the line. The line stops were the first portion of the modification that isolated the leaking pipe from the source of the water. Installation of the replacement de-icing pipe was scheduled for July 2007.
b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety (PS) 2PS1 Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems (71122.01)

a. Inspection Scope (11 samples)

Inspection Planning and In-office Inspection The inspectors selectively reviewed the 2005 and 2006 Radiological Effluent Release Reports and Radiological Dose Assessment Reports to verify that the program was implemented as described in the station Radiological Effluents Technical Specifications (RETS) and the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). The inspectors reviewed the latest updated ODCM for significant changes to identify changes to radioactive waste system design and operation and to identify program changes. The inspectors determined whether changes to the ODCM were technically justified and documented, as appropriate. The technical justifications, as appropriate, were reviewed during the onsite inspection.

The inspectors evaluated AmerGens analysis for any additional discharge pathways as a result of a spill, leak, routine, normal, abnormal, or unexpected liquid discharge or gaseous discharges, which may have developed since the previous inspection. The inspectors verified, as applicable, that AmerGen had records on sampling locations, type of monitoring, and frequency of sampling to meet 10 CFR 20.1501 requirements.

The inspectors determined whether modifications made to radioactive waste system design and operation, as applicable, changed the dose consequence to the public. The inspectors verified, as appropriate, that technical and/or 10 CFR 50.59 reviews were performed. The inspectors determined whether radioactive liquid and gaseous effluent radiation monitor setpoint calculation methodology changed since the previous inspection and that AmerGen had set and adjusted its radioactive effluent alarm setpoints in accordance with the methodology and parameters specified within the current ODCM.

The inspectors determined if anomalous results, reported in the current Radiological Effluent Release and Radiological Dose Assessment Reports, were adequately Enclosure

11 resolved. The inspectors also reviewed AmerGens actions to revolve any out-of-specification intra- and inter-laboratory cross-check analysis data for the effluent monitoring program and to determine if remedial action had been taken for the out-of-specification data.

The inspectors reviewed the RETS/ODCM to identify the effluent radiation monitoring systems and applicable flow measurement devices. The inspectors reviewed any effluent radiological occurrence performance indicator incidents for onsite follow-up and reviewed AmerGen self-assessments, audits, and event reports that involved unanticipated offsite releases of radioactive material, as appropriate. (See also Section 4OA2)

The inspectors reviewed the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) description of radioactive effluent monitoring and radioactive gaseous and liquid processing systems, as appropriate.

The inspectors reviewed the RETS/ODCM to identify the programs for identifying potential contaminated spills and leakage and AmerGens process for control and assessment. The inspectors determined if any AmerGen procedures and/or surveillance activities address the ability to identify onsite spills/leaks of contaminated fluids.

Onsite Inspection The inspectors selectively walked down, where possible, major components of the gaseous and liquid release systems (e.g., radiation and flow monitors, filters, tanks, and vessels) to observe current system configuration with respect to the description in the UFSAR and equipment material condition. The inspectors verified that system components were as described in the ODCM and were used for reduction of activity levels in accordance with the RETS/ODCM. During facility tours, the inspectors were sensitive to potential unmonitored radioactive gaseous and/or radioactive liquid release pathways.

The inspectors observed routine effluent sample collections from station vent and selectively observed laboratory analysis of these effluent particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, tritium, and gas samples. The inspector reviewed use of radioactive gaseous effluent treatment equipment in accordance with RETS/ODCM requirements, as applicable, and reviewed use of systems per ODCM guidance. The inspectors selectively reviewed radioactive liquid waste release permits.

The inspectors reviewed, as appropriate, records of gaseous and/or liquid releases made with out-of-service effluent radiation monitors, and AmerGens actions for these releases, to ensure an adequate defense-in-depth was maintained against an unmonitored, unanticipated release of radioactive material to the environment. The inspectors determined, were appropriate, compensatory sampling and radiological analyses was conducted, at the RETS/ODCM required frequency, when effluent monitors were declared out-of-service. For unmonitored releases, where applicable, the Enclosure

12 inspectors determined if AmerGen had performed an evaluation of the type and amount of radioactive material that was released and the associated projected doses to members of the public. The inspectors also selectively determined if AmerGen had placed information on leaks or spills into its 10 CFR 50.75(g) decommissioning file, as appropriate.

The inspectors assessed AmerGens understanding of the location and construction of underground pipes and tanks, and storage pools, that contain radioactive contaminated liquids. The inspectors evaluated if AmerGen may have potential unmonitored leakage of contaminated fluids to the groundwater as a result of degrading material conditions or aging of facilities. The inspectors evaluated AmerGens capabilities (such as monitoring wells) of detecting spills or leaks and of identifying groundwater radiological contamination both on site and beyond the owner controlled area. The inspectors reviewed AmerGens technical bases for onsite groundwater monitoring conducted and its long-term sample program. The inspectors reviewed ground and surface water sample results. The inspectors discussed with AmerGen, its understanding of groundwater flow patterns for the site, and in the event of a spill or leak of radioactive material, if AmerGens staff can estimate the pathway of a plume of contaminated fluid both onsite and beyond the owner controlled area. The inspectors reviewed the TMI Station Hydro-geologic Investigation Report, dated September 1, 2006. The inspector also reviewed the Annual Radiological Groundwater Protection Program Report, dated April 2007.

The inspectors reviewed changes, as applicable, to the ODCM as well as to the liquid or gaseous radioactive waste system design, procedures, or operation since the last inspection. For each system modification, and each ODCM revision that impacted effluent monitoring or release controls, as applicable, the inspectors reviewed AmerGens technical justification to determine whether the changes affected AmerGens ability to maintain effluents as low as reasonably achievable and whether changes made to monitoring instrumentation resulted in a non-representative monitoring of effluents.

For significant changes to dose values reported in the Radiological Effluent Release Report from the previous report (2005 versus 2006), the inspectors evaluated, where applicable, the factors which may have resulted in the change. The inspectors also evaluated if the change was influenced by an operational issue (e.g., fuel integrity, extended outage, or major decontamination efforts).

The inspectors reviewed a selection of 2004, 2005, and 2006 monthly, quarterly, and annual dose calculations to ensure that AmerGen properly calculated the offsite dose (both cumulative and projected) from radiological effluent releases and direct radiation to determine if any annual TS/ODCM (i.e., Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50) values were exceeded and, if appropriate, issued a PI report if any quarterly values were exceeded.

The inspectors evaluated the source term used by AmerGen to ensure all applicable radionuclides discharged, within detectability standards, were included. The inspectors also selectively performed conservative calculations, based on ODCM methodology, to validate selective projected doses.

Enclosure

13 The inspectors reviewed air cleaning system surveillance test results (standby gas treatment system) to ensure that system operations were within applicable acceptance criteria specified in Technical Specifications. The inspectors selectively reviewed surveillance test results or methodology AmerGen used to determine ventilation exhaust flow rates.

The inspectors reviewed records of effluent monitor instrument calibrations, performed since the last inspection, for each point of discharge, effluent radiation monitor and flow measurement device; reviewed any completed system modifications; and selectively reviewed the current effluent radiation monitor alarm setpoint value for agreement with RETS/ODCM requirements.

The inspectors reviewed calibration records of radiation measurement (i.e., laboratory counting room) instrumentation associated with effluent monitoring and release activities. The inspectors reviewed quality control records for the radiation measurement instruments and looked for indications of degraded instrument performance and the corrective actions taken.

The inspectors reviewed the results of the intra- and inter-laboratory comparison program to verify the quality of radioactive effluent sample analyses performed by AmerGen. The inspector reviewed AmerGens quality control evaluation of the inter-laboratory comparison test data and associated corrective actions for any deficiencies identified. The inspector also, as applicable, reviewed AmerGens assessment of any identified bias in the sample analysis results and the overall effect on calculated projected doses to members of the public.

The inspectors reviewed the results from AmerGens quality assurance audits to determine whether AmerGen met the requirements of the RETS/ODCM. (See also Section 4.05.)

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.
4. OTHER ACTIVITIES 4OA1 Performance Indicator Verification (71151)
a. Inspection Scope (2 samples)

The inspectors reviewed selected station records to verify NRC performance indicators (PIs) had been accurately reported to the NRC as required by NEI 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Rev. 4. The two PI samples listed below were verified for the period April 2006 to March 2007. Documents reviewed during the inspection are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems (71152)

.1 Review of Items Entered into the Corrective Action Program and Cross-References to Problem Identification And Resolution Issues Reviewed Elsewhere 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 a list of daily issue reports, by performing detailed reviews of selected issue reports, attending daily screening meetings, and accessing the licensees computerized database.

The inspectors also reviewed a sample of IRs associated with 10 CFR 50.59 issues and plant modification issues to ensure that AmerGen was appropriately identifying, characterizing, and correcting problems associated with these areas and that the planned or completed corrective actions were appropriate. Additional documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

.2 Semi-Annual Review to Identify Trends (1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors performed a semi-annual review of common cause issues in order to identify any unusual trends that might indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. This review included an evaluation of repetitive issues identified via the corrective action program, self revealing issues, and issues evaluated using programs supplemental to the formal corrective action program such as the maintenance rule program and corrective maintenance program. The results of the trending review were compared with the results of normal baseline inspections.
b. Assessment and Observations Station-wide corrective actions to improve procedure quality and adherence have been effective; steady improvement noted since March 2006. Senior reactor operator (SRO) staffing levels were challenged due to retirements, exam failures, and several fitness for duty (FFD) issues over the past 18 months. The most recent was when the Shift manager (SM) passed out while giving a blood sample for his period physical while assigned duty as SM and emergency response organization emergency director (see Enclosure

15 Section 4OA3.2). The station actions to address these staffing challenges have been effective. Eleven applicants (3 reactor operators and 8 SROs) successfully passed their examination and received licenses in June 2007. The next initial license class begins in January 2008.

Problem identification has improved. However, problem resolution (rigor and timeliness) remains inconsistent. Recent examples included deficient assessment and mitigation of electrolyte leakage from 125 volt station battery cells which caused an electrical ground (IRs 636468, 636857, 638168, 640137), on-shift SM unfit for duty due to passing out while giving a blood sample (IR 621713, 636536), degraded reactor building coatings (IR 575064), and deficient protected area access controls (IR 565138).

During the past 6 months the station has had an elevated number of degraded equipment or material issues. Station personnel have used the corrective action program to reasonably assess individual issues and when appropriate developed adverse condition monitoring plans in accordance with OP-AA-108-111. At the close of the inspection period nine adverse condition monitoring plans were in effect. Examples included nuclear riverwater leaks due to corrosion, fuel assembly guide tube growth, one failed fuel pin, B channel of the reactor protection system in bypass due to a reactor coolant loop T-hot instrument failure, a condensate storage tank deicing line tritium leak, B decay heat system flow indication degraded, 125 volt station battery electrolyte leakage causing grounds, main condenser vacuum pump high discharge temp, one feedwater heater level in manual control, and various hot weather challenge issues.

The inspectors noted that although individual issues were reasonably addressed, the cumulative impact may adversely affect plant or operator response to initiating events.

The inspectors discussed this concern with station management. Station management held daily meetings to focus attention on managing and correcting the degraded equipment conditions. The inspectors observed good interdepartmental communications and progress on correcting several of degraded material conditions toward the end of the inspection period.

.3 Annual Sample Review (1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed AmerGens evaluation and corrective actions associated with the First Energy 2006 Grid Voltage Calculation Review. The inspectors reviewed IR-577700 and the associated actions against the requirements of AmerGens corrective action program to ensure that the full extent of the issues were identified, appropriate evaluations were performed, and appropriate corrective actions were specified and prioritized. The inspectors interviewed relevant station personnel and reviewed the grid calculation update. The inspectors reviewed applicable station procedures to ensure the extent of the grid information was incorporated as appropriate.

Enclosure

16

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified. AmerGen adequately incorporated the First Energy data into the voltage calculations. Changes in margin were correctly identified and tracked. The inspectors noted that while this information was adequately integrated into the grid voltage calculation, there was a delay in discussing the changes in margin with First Energy. The data is pertinent to a specific time period, the summer of 2007, and this should have been reflected in the prioritization of the corrective actions. The inspectors also noted that, although a requirement exists in procedure ES-037T to annually verify the transmission operator has adequate guidance to respond to voltage limit issues for Three Mile Island, this was not being done consistently and no method exists to ensure this procedure step is performed. AmerGen has entered this issue into their corrective action program as IR 00640019.

.4 Radiation Safety

a. Inspection Scope (71122.01, 7112203) (1 Sample)

The inspectors reviewed audits and assessments of the radioactive waste handling, processing, storage, and shipping programs including the Process Control Program (PCP). The inspectors also reviewed selected corrective action documents written since the previous inspection. Documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

The review was against criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, Technical Specifications, and applicable station audit and surveillance procedures.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

4OA3 Event Followup (71153 - 3 samples)

.1 Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Deicing Line Water Line Leak

a. Inspection Scope On April 17, 2007, station personnel discovered water containing tritium (45,200 picocuries/liter) within a cable trench in the telecommunications room inside the protected area (IRs 618443 and 618929). Station personnel determined the water came from a leak in an underground CST deicing line, close to where the line had leaked in May 2006 (documented in NRC Integrated Inspection Report 050002892006-04, Dated July 26, 2006). The inspectors reviewed station drawings, conducted field walkdowns, and interviewed station personnel to verify appropriate actions were implemented to stop the leak and prevent migration of the tritium water offsite.

Chemistry samples confirmed small amounts of the tritium water had reached underground cable conduit runs (IR 618944). The cable conduit manways were Enclosure

17 pumped out, the leak was stopped, and the affected section of piping was isolated. The Exelon Groundwater Tritium study, completed in September 2006, confirmed that almost all groundwater tritium at TMI remains at TMI due to the associated island hydrology characteristics and industrial wells which draw an aquifer to their point of suction. Groundwater flux migration studies concluded that only a very small amount of tritium water, well below the lower limit of detection, reaches the Susquehanna river.

This data is included in the annual report of plant effluents.

A project team was formed to develop a permanent repair for this repetitive leak. An adverse condition monitoring plan was developed and an enhanced groundwater well monitoring plan was implemented to verify the leak was stopped. Repair plans were developed in accordance with engineering change request (ECR) TM 00401, Deicing Line Replacement for CO-T-1A, Rev. 0. The inspectors reviewed the ECR, discussed repair and monitoring activities with station personnel, and monitored installation of temporary line stops on the deicing line to isolate the leak. Completion of the plant modification to replace the existing CST deicing line is scheduled for July 2007.

b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Shift Manager and Emergency Director Position Not Staffed For Brief Period

a. Inspection Scope On April 25, the shift manager (SM) briefly fainted while he was at the south office building providing a blood sample for a medical exam (IR 621713). Although the SM revived within one minute, as a precaution, another qualified SM operator was located, briefed on plant conditions, and assigned SM watch standing duties. Correspondingly the SM and station emergency director position was not staffed for 30 minutes. The inspectors reviewed logs, interviewed station personnel, and reviewed regulatory staffing requirements. The inspectors determined the SM was not fit for duty while passed out and during subsequent recovery (a total period of less than 10 minutes).

Two senior reactor operators remained on watch at the control room, fully capable of overseeing safe plant operation and making emergency plan classifications if the need arose. Deficiencies which permitted this event to occur, and deficiencies in AmerGens follow-up to this issue were documented in IR 636536.

B. Findings No findings of significance were identified.

.3 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000289/2006-002-00, Automatic Reactor Trip Due to an Invalid Turbine Protective System Actuation On November 2, 2006, the reactor automatically shut down due to an invalid trip actuation signal during calibration of the main condenser pressure transmitters. Station Enclosure

18 personnel determined the cause was a latent design deficiency in the digital turbine control system. The event was previously documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000289/2006006. The inspectors determined the LER accurately described the event and no findings of significance were identified. This LER is closed.

4OA5 Other Additional NRC Assessment of NRC Finding 05000289/2007502-01, Failure to Adequately Critique and Identify a Performance Problem Associated with the Process of Event Classification NRC Inspection Report 05000289/2007502 dated May 15, 2007, documented a Green findings associated with an EP drill critique deficiency. The shift manager made an Unusual Event classification based on an incorrect classification criteria and the critique did not identify this performance error. During this inspection period the inspectors discussed the cause of the deficient EP drill critique with both licensee staff and the NRC Team who identified the finding. The inspectors determined that the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, because the licensee did not ensure this issue which potentially impacted nuclear safety was promptly identified P.1(a). The licensee did not implement a corrective action program with a low threshold for identifying issues. Specifically, station personnel did not recognize that the shift manager made the Unusual Event classification based on an incorrect classification criteria. Therefore, the EP drill critique did not identify and correct the event classification deficiency as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.g.

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit Exit Meeting Summary On July 12, 2007, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Rusty West and other members of the TMI staff. The regional specialist inspection results were previously presented to members of AmerGen management. The inspectors asked the licensee whether any of the material examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary and none was identified.
