REPORT DETAILS Summary of Plant Status Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent rated thermal power (RTP). On July 20, 2010, the unit began its end-of-cycle coast down. Planned power reductions were performed on July 23 and August 10, 2010, respectively, to remove the fifth and fourth stage feedwater (FW)

heat exchangers (HXs) from service during the end-of-cycle coast down. Planned main turbine valve testing was also performed on July 23,2010. On September 12,2010, a planned shutdown from approximately 81 percent was commenced and the main generator breaker was opened to start the unit's 18th refueling outage <<RFO) P2R18). During the shutdown, operators inserted a planned manual scram from approximately 3 percent reactor power. The unit remained in P2R18 through the end of the inspection period.

Unit 3 began the inspection period at 100 percent RTP. On August 27, the unit performed a planned power reduction to approximately 55 percent to perform main turbine and main steam isolation valve (MSIV) testing, control rod scram time testing. and a control rod sequence exchange. On August 28,2010, the unit was returned to 100 percent RTP where it remained until the end of the inspection period, except for one brief period to support a rod pattern adjustment.

Enclosure

b. Findings No findings were identified.

1R08 Inservice Inspection (lSI) Activities (71111.08G - 1 Sample)

a. Inspection Scope From September 20..24, the inspectors performed a review of Exelon's implementation of their riskwinformed lSI program activities for monitoring degradation of the reactor coolant system (RCS) boundary and risk Significant piping system boundaries for Peach Bottom Unit 2 using the criteria specified in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI.

The sample selection was based on the inspection procedure objectives and risk priority of those components and systems where degradation would result in a significant increase in risk of core damage. The inspectors reviewed documentation, observed in process non-destructive examinations (NDE) and interviewed inspection personnel to verify that the activities were performed in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section XI requirements.

Activities inspected during the Unit 2 RFO 18 (P2R18) included direct observation of in process manual ultrasonic testing (UT) of feedwater (FW) nozzle N4C and magnetic particle testing (MT) of a PMCap split ring, which was designed as an appurtenance to the ESW piping for leak repair.

The inspectors also examined portions of videos and pictures of in-vessel Visual inspections (lWI) of the jet pumps, the core spray (CS) pumps, control rod guide tubes, and the steam separator to verify that Exelon is inspecting and monitoring in vessel components in accordance with Boiling Water Reactor Vessel and Internals Project guidelines.

The inspectors performed direct visual inspection of the accessible portions of the drywell liner and non-wetted portions of the torus pressure boundary. The inspectors reviewed visual inspection records of the components examined during Exelon's walk down.

The inspectors reviewed two repair and replacement actiVities to verify that welding activities and applicable NDE were performed in accordance with ASME Code requirements. These activities included replacing an ESW cross-tie check valve (CHK 2-33-514) and installing a PMCap appurtenance to the 20" ESW piping.

b. Findings No findings were identified.

1R11 Licensed Operator Regualification Program (71111.11 - 2 Samples)

.1 Resident Inspector Quarterly Review (71111.11 Q - 1 Sample)

Enclosure

a. Inspection Scope On August 23,2010, the inspectors observed a simulator-based licensed operator evaluation during requalification training. The inspectors assessed the performance of risk significant operator actions, including the use of emergency operating procedures.

The inspectors evaluated crew performance in the areas of:

  • Clarity and formality of communications;
  • Event classification and emergency response actions;
  • Ability to take timely actions;
  • PriOritization, interpretation, and verification of alarms;
  • Procedure usage;
  • Control board manipulations; and
  • Command and control.

The inspectors verified that evaluators were identifying and documenting crew performance problems. These activities constituted one quarterly Licensed Operator Requalification Training Program inspection sample.

b. Findings No findings were identified .

.2 Limited Senior Reactor Operator (LSRO) for Refueling Regualification Program (71111.11B-1 Sample)

a. Inspection Scope The following inspection activities were performed using NUREG 1021, Revision 9,

"Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," Inspection Procedure (IP) Attachment 71111.11, <<Licensed Operator Requalification Program," and Appendix A, "Checklist for Evaluating Facility Testing MateriaL" A review was conducted of recent operating history documentation regarding fuel handling found in the licensee's CAP. The inspectors also reviewed specific events from the licensee's CAP to determine if possible training deficiencies existed. The inspectors noted repeated instances at Peach Bottom of misoriented or mispositioned fuel bundles during refueling activities, and reviewed the root cause evaluation and corrective actions that were performed by the facility.

The inspectors evaluated the 2010 Limerick and Peach Bottom LSRO refueling operating tests and the Limerick LSRO written examinations for quality and compliance with the Examination Standards. Administration of five job performance measures to four operators at Limerick was observed on August 2, 2010.

On September 7, 2010, the results of the biennial written examinations at Limerick and annual operating tests for 2010 were reviewed to determine whether pass/fail rates were consistent with the guidance of NUREG-1021, Revision 9, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." All LSROs passed their examinations.

Performance of all individuals over two years was reviewed and indicated no adverse Enclosure

trends. The remediation plans for one individual's written failure in 2008 were reviewed to assess the effectiveness of the remedial training.

Two years of records for requalification training attendance and license reactivation for all four LSROs were reviewed for compliance with license conditions and NRC regulations. Medical records for these fourindividuals were also reviewed.

A sampling of feedback was reviewed and training materials were evaluated for response to this feedback. These materials were also reviewed for incorporation of plant modifications and industry events.

b. Findings No findings were identified.

1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness (71111.12Q - 2 Samples)

The inspectors evaluated PBAPS's work practices and follow~up corrective actions for safety-related structures, systems, and components (SSCs) and identified issues to assess the effectiveness of PBAPS's maintenance activities. The inspectors reviewed the performance history of SSCs and assessed PBAPS's extent-of-condition (EOC)

determinations for those issues with potential common cause or generic implications to evaluate the adequacy of the PBAPS's corrective actions. The inspectors assessed PBAPS's problem identification and resolution (PI&R) actions for these issues to evaluate whether PBAPS had appropriately monitored, evaluated, and dlspositioned the isslles in accordance with Exelon procedures, including ER-AA-310, "Implementation of the Maintenance Rule," and the requirements of 10 CFR 50.65, "ReqUirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance." In addition, the inspectors reviewed selected SSC classifications, performance criteria and goals, and PBAPS's corrective actions that were taken or planned, to evaluate whether the actions were reasonable and appropriate. The inspectors performed the following two samples:

  • Station Blackout (SBO) System (System 51 H); and

b. Findings No findings were identified.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control (71111.13 - 5 Samples)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors evaluated PBAPS's implementation of the Maintenance Risk Program with respect to the effectiveness of risk assessments performed for maintenance activities that were conducted on SSCs. The inspectors also verified that the licensee managed the risk in accordance with 10 CFR Part 50.65(a)(4) and procedure WC-AA-101, "On-line Work Control Process." The inspectors evaluated whether PBAPS had taken the necessary steps to plan and control emergent work activities and to Enclosure

manage overall plant risk. The inspectors selectively reviewed PBAPS's use of the online risk monitoring software and daily work schedules. The activities selected were based on plant maintenance schedules and systems that contributed to risk. The inspectors completed five evaluations of maintenance activities on the following:

  • Unplanned unavailability of the SBO (191-00) line cable (IR 1098574);
  • Emergent work to investigate a leak from 'A' ESW discharge piping (lR 1099140);
  • Control of work and management of risk in response to receipt of a low pressure alarm on independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) cask number 50 (IR 1109955).

b. Findings No findings were identified.

1R15 Operability Evaluations (71111.15 -7 Samples)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed seven issues to assess the technical adequacy of the operability evaluations, the use and control of compensatory measures, and compliance with the licensing and design bases. Associated adverse condition monitoring plans (ACMPs), engineering technical evaluations, and operational and technical decision making (aTOM) documents were also reviewed. The inspectors verified these processes were performed in accordance with the applicable administrative procedures and were conSistent with NRC guidance. Specifically, the inspectors referenced procedure OP-M-108-115, "Operability Determinations,U and NRC IMC Part 9900,

"Operability Determinations & Functionality Assessments for Resolutions of Degraded or Nonconforming Conditions Adverse to Quality or Safety." The inspectors also used TS5, TRM, Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), and associated Design Basis Documents (OBDs) as references during these reviews. The following degraded equipment issues were reviewed:

  • Northeast Technology Corporation (NETCo) issued Notice of Inability to Evaluate Possible 10 CFR 21 Reportability (IR 1093925);
  • ACMP action level exceeded for total dissolved combustible gas in the 3 'B' main power transformer (MPT) (IR 1097166):
  • Operability evaluation for the ASME Code Class III through-wall pinhole leak in the

'A' ESW piping (IR 1099140-02);

  • E-4 EDG ventilation fan following unexpected trip and motor starter unit replacement (IR 1095983);
  • Acceptability of boron poison areal density during procurement of TN-68 spent fuel dry storage casks (IR 1044591); and
  • Operability Evaluation 10-007 and corrective actions needed for spent fuel pool (SFP) Boraflex degradation (IR 1127773) and SFP criticality with 45% B-10 loss (Technical Evaluation, Revision 3 -IR 864431-15).

Enclosure

b. Findings Introduction: The inspectors identified an unresolved item (URI) related to issues of concern with the degrading Boraflex panels in the PBAPS SFPs. Additional information and specialized technical support from the NRC's Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) are required to determine whether a performance deficiency exists. Specifically, NRR will be requested to provide a technical review of the PBAPS's operability determination <<00)10-007) to determine if it is technically sufficient and to confirm the time limitations associated with the referenced technical evaluation. This will support an evaluation of whether PBAPS's corrective actions to address the non-conservative TS (4.3.1.1.a) associated with the design limit for peak in-core reactivity (k-infinrty) of spent fuel have been timely when judged against the standards established in NRC Administrative Letter (AL) 98-10, "Oispositioning of TSs That Are Insufficient To Assure Plant Safety," and the requirements in 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XIV, "Corrective Actions." Additionally, the inspectors will use the results of the NRR technical review to determine whether the PBAPS OD has demonstrated with reasonable assurance that the slJbcritical margin limit for the SFP as speCified by TS 4.3.1.1.b (K-effeCtive ~ 0.95) will continue to be met through the time limit established in the technical evaluation and until the licensee's specified corrective actions can be completed. The current technical evaluation concludes that with administrative limits on the reactivity of the fuel added to SFPs, Keffective will conservatively remain .below 0.95 until approximately 2014.

Description: Since 1996, PBAPS has known that the Boron-10 (B-1 0) neutron absorber used in the Units 2 and 3 SFPs' racks had begun a degrading trend. SpeCifically, the degradation caused some of the Boraflex neutron absorber material imbedded in the rack panels to fall below the minimum certified B-10 density of 0.021 grams B-10 per square centimeter (g/cm 2). The panels had degraded from the as-manufactured average areal density of 0.0235 g/cm2 that was 11.9 percent greater than minimum certified density. In response to degrading trends, PBAPS secured analyses from AEA Technology and NETCo that quantified the reactivity effects associated with varying degrees of 8-10 density loss in the Westinghouse racks. The reactivity penalty derived from this analysis was transposed into Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF) SFP criticality analyses. PBAPS asserted that these analyses were incorporated into the plants'

licensing and design bases through the 10 CFR 50.59 process. However, none of these methods have been reviewed and approved by the NRC for application at Peach Bottom.

In 2007, PBAPS recognized that the B-10 degradation of the Units 2 and 3 SFPs storage was projected to exceed the 10 percent loss limit (0.0189 g/cm 2 ) established by the AEA Technology, NETCo, and GNF analytical methods. PBAPS also recognized that the i<Jnfinity value in TS (4.3.1.1.a) would become non-conservative and the guidance in NRC AL 98-10, "Dispositioning ofTSs That Are Insufficient to Assure Plant Safety," would apply. Subsequently, PBAPS submitted a license amendment request (LAR) to change the Kinfinity value in the TS. In response to issues raised by the NRC's technical reViewers, PBAPS made several supplemental submittals to the LAR before it was withdrawn by a letter dated June 18, 2010 (ML101690377).

Subsequently, PBAPS developed 0010-007 to address the non-conservative TS (4.3.1.1.a). The 00 evaluated the acceptability of storing fuel bundles in the Unit 2 and 3 SFP storage racks with a minimum B-10 average areal density of 0.01155 gm/cm2, Enclosure

which is 55% of 0.021g/cm2 (45% degradation). In comparison, it is noted that the most degraded panel in either units' SFP storage racks was measured in January 2010, to be degraded to an areal density of 0.0169 g/cm 2 (19.5 percent of 0.021g/cm 2) and has been projected to have degraded to 0.0146 g/cm 2 (30.5 percent of 0.021g/cm 2) on November 1, 2010. The degradation projections have been made by the RACKLIFE version 2.0 computer modeling program; however, it is noted that the licensee plans to convert to version 2.1 of RACKLIFE program. The OD referenced and relies on Revision 3 of a technical evaluation (IR 864431-15, and two previous revisions) that PBAPS has used since 2009 to justify continued operability of the SFPs and to show that the SFP will be maintained 5% subcritical (Kef!:S 0.95). The basis for the approach in these documents was to reduce the design basis limiting fuel assembly reactivity to a maximum ~nftnlty of 1.26. The current technical evaluation concludes that with administrative limits on the reactivity of the fuel added to SFPs, !<affective will conservatively remain below 0.95 until the maximum B-10 density depletion reaches approximately 45 percent in 2014. As an additional compensatory measure, PBAPS plans to remove from service any SFP storage rack panels with Boraflex degraded more than 45 percent. PBAPS's current plans are to submit a new LAR in late 2011.

The inspectors reviewed 00 10-007 and concluded that assistance from NRR was needed to determine the technical adequacy and correctness of the licensee's operability evaluation and to confirm the time limitations associated with the referenced technical evaluation. This assistance is needed by the region to determine whether one or more performance deficiencies exist Specifically, to evaluate whether PBAPS's corrective actions to address the non-conservative TS (4.3.1.1.a) associated with the design limit for peak in-core reactivity (k~inlinlty) of spent fuel have been timely when judged against the standards established in NRC AL 98-10, "Dispositioning of TSs That Are Insufficient To Assure Plant Safety," and the requirements in 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XIV, "Corrective Actions." Additionally, the inspectors will use the results of the NRR technical review to determine whether the PBAPS 00 has demonstrated with reasonable assurance that the subcritical margin limit for the SFP as specified by TS 4.3.1.1.b (K-effective ~ 0.95) will continue to be met through the time limit established in the technical evaluation and until the licensee's specified corrective actions can be completed.

The inspectors plan to submit their technical questions to NRR in accordance with Office Instruction, COM-106, "Control of Task Interface Agreements." Therefore, this issue remains unresolved pending NRR's response to the TIA and subsequently inspector review.

.2 Permanent Modifications (1 - Sample)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed one permanent modification to verify that modification*

implementation did not place the plant in an unsafe condition. The review was also conducted to verify that the design bases, licensing bases, and performance capability of risk significant SSCs had not been degraded as a result of these modifications. The inspectors verified the modified equipment alignment through control room instrumentation observations; UFSAR, drawings, procedures, and WO reviews; staff interviews; and plant walkdowns of accessible equipment. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment. The following ECR for a permanent modification was reviewed:

  • ECR 10-00236 was developed to generically approve the installation and use of SmartCover level indicators in electrical manholes to detect water intrusion. The level indicators use an ultrasonic sensor to detect water level and will be mounted under the manhole lids. Data is wirelessly transmitted from the level instrument.

b, Findings No findings were identified.

1R19 Post-Maintenance Testing (71111.19 - 6 Samples)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed completed test records or observed selected post-maintenance testing (PMT) activities, The inspectors verified whether the tests were performed in accordance with the approved procedures or instructions and assessed the adequacy of the test methodology based on the scope of maintenance work performed. In addition, the inspectors assessed the test acceptance criteria to evaluate whether the test demonstrated that components satisfied the applicable design and licensing bases and the TS requirements. The inspectors reviewed the recorded test data to verify that the acceptance criteria were satisfied.

1R20 Refueling and Other Outage Activities (71111.20)

.1 Peach Bottom Unit 2 RFO 18 (P2R18)

a. Inspection Scope The Unit 2 RFO (P2R18) was conducted from September 12,2010, through the end of the inspection period. Prior to the start of P2R18 on September 12, 2010, the inspectors reviewed the station's work schedule and the Outage Risk Assessment Management (ORAM) Plan against procedures OU-PB-104, "Shutdown Safety Management Program;" OU-PB-104-1001, "Shutdown Risk Management for Outages;" and OU-M-103, "Shutdown Safety Management Program." The ORAM plan was reviewed to confirm that the PBAPS had appropriately considered risk, industry experience, and previous site specific problems in developing and implementing a plan that maintained shutdown safety defense-in-depth. During the RFO, the inspectors observed portions of the shutdown and cooldown processes and selectively monitored the activities listed below to verify PBAPS controls over the outage activities:

Observed Plant Operations Review Committee meetings where the reactor shutdown and shutdown safety plans were discussed;

  • Observed the control room operators reduce power to approximately 3 percent, initiate a planned manual scram of Unit 2, and stabilize the plant in Mode 3;

1EP6 Drill Evaluation (71114.06 - 2 Samples)

.1 Drill Observation (1 Drill Sample)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors observed the conduct of a PBAPS emergency drill on July 12, 2010, to identify any weaknesses and deficiencies in classification and notification activities. The drill was conducted to provide drill and exercise performance (DEP) opportunities for the DEP performance indicator (PI). The inspectors observed operators respond to events in the simulator control room through the declaration and notification of an alert. The inspectors observed the operations shift manager transition emergency response command and control responsibilities to the site emergency director in the technical support center (TSC). The inspectors relocated to the TSC to observe command and control of the emergency response organization and dose assessment as the event escalated to the declaration and notification of a site area emergency, followed by further Enclosure

escalation to a general emergency. The inspectors verified that the event classification and notifications were done in accordance with EP~AA-1007, "Exelon Nuclear Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for PBAPS."

40A2 Identification and Resolution of Problems (PI&R) (71152 - 1 Annual Sample)

Enclosure

.1 Review of Items Entered into the CAP a. Inspection Scope As required by IP 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 screening of all items entered into the licensee's CAP. This was accomplished by reviewing the description of each new action request (AR) / IR and attending daily management review committee meetings.

.2 Temporary Configuration Change Program (TCCP) (1 - Annual Sample)

a. Inspection Scope The inspectors focused on PBAPS's problem identification, evaluation, and resolution of the corrective actions to address the TCCP programmatic issues at PBAPS as identified by the NRC, Exelon Nuclear Oversight, and other outside assessors. As an example, a SL IV Violation of 10 CFR 50.59 was issued on November 12, 2009, when the licensee implemented a temporary configuration change without a 50.59 review that likely would have required a license amendment before its implementation (NCV 05000278/2009004-01. Failure to Perform a 50.59 Review Prior to Installing Jumpers on 'E' Wide-Range Neutron Monitoring System.)

The inspectors reviewed PBAPS's immediate and follow-up actions, apparent cause evaluation, EOC review, and corrective actions. The inspectors conducted interviews with site personnel, reviewed condition reports (CRs), training documentation, active temporary configuration changes, and revisions 16 & 17 of the TCCP procedure, CC-AA-112, Temporary Configuration Changes. The documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the Attachment.

b. Findings No findings were identified. The inspectors concluded that Exelon has identified and taken appropriate actions to resolve the issues with the TCCP. As a result of the SL IV violation, a knowledge deficiency regarding the usage of clearances in support of maintenance versus in support of operations was identified. The inspectors reviewed the clearance and tagging re-qualification training that explains the differences between the two situations. Also, the inspectors reviewed changes to the clearance and tagging process that includes routine reviews of all active clearances past 60 days. As part of PBAPS's TCCP improvement actions that were documented in IR 1039022, a revision to the TCCP procedure was performed to ensure design considerations were consistently considered prior to conducting temporary configuration changes to the faCility. The inspectors reviewed the procedure revision and determined that the new changes were appropriate to address the program gaps that existed in the old revision.

40A3 Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion (71153 - 1 Sample)

.1 Personnel Performance - Unit 2 - Fuel and Fuel Component Handling Events a. Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed Exelon's actions to address human performance events associated with fuel and fuel component handling in the reactor core and SFP during the Unit 2 P2R18 RFO. The inspectors also reviewed corrective action documents (IRs 1115041, 1117854, 1114828, and 1117251) that are listed in detail in the Attachment to this report. In addition, the inspectors observed fuel handling activities from the refueling platform and via remote monitoring equipment, and discussed the identified problems and evaluation activities with cognizant Exelon personnel.

b. Findings Introduction: The inspectors identified an URI related to potential procedure inadequacy issues that allowed inadequate coordination of simultaneous close proximity activities within the reactor vessel and personnel performance error issues while handling fuel in the reactor core and the SFP. These events appear to be examples where inadequate procedures contributed to fuel handling issues. This issue will remain unresolved pending completion of PBAPS's investigation and cause evaluation processes under the CAP.

Enclosure

Description: On September 18, 2010, during Core Shuffle I, the safety spotter had to stop the refueling bridge to avoid contact with the CS inspection (CSI) submarine. On September 19, 2010, during the execution of fuel move 302 of Core Shuffle I, a discharged fuel bundle (JLM491), that had been picked up from the core, came in contact with the CSI submarine as the refueling bridge began transiting to the SFP (IR 1115041). Both fuel movement and NDEs using a remotely operated vehicle (CSI submarine) were being conducted within the same core quadrant. On September 24, 2010, during preparations for Core Shuffle 11, a dummy fuel bundle came in contact with a discharged fuel bundle at location JJ-37 in the SFP while the refueling bridge's mast was being lowered over an occupied storage cell using the travel override pushbutton (IR 1115041). At the time, the mast was being exercised in accordance with a refuel bridge ST. At the end of the inspection period, PBAPS's causal analysis activities were still in progress; therefore, this item remains unresolved: URI 05000277, 278/2010004 02, Potentially Inadequate Fuel Handling Procedures Lead to Personnel Performance Errors While Handling Fuel.

  • Exelon and industry assessments of implementation of the GPI.

b. Findings and Observations No findings were identified. Implementation of the Industry GPI is voluntary. Under the final Initiative, each site was to have developed an effective, technically sound Groundwater Protection Program by August 2008.

The inspectors determined that, at the time of this inspection, Exelon had not taken action on all groundwater initiative objectives (as outlined in the TI) as follows:

  • GPI Objective 1.2 g - At the time of this inspection, a specific frequency had been established for periodic reviews of 88Cs and work practices. However, the frequency had not yet been placed in a procedure. This matter was identified in a self-assessment and placed in the CAP. (IR924237)
  • GPI Objective 1.3 f - At the time of the inspection, Exelon had established a program for the preventative maintenance of groundwater wells. However, the program had not yet been incorporated into all applicable implementing procedures. Exelon placed this issue into its CAP. (lR924237)
  • GPI Objective 1.4 a.- At the time of this inspection, written procedures had not been established outlining the decision making process for remediation of leaks or spills or other instances of inadvertent releases, including consideration of migration pathways. Exelon identified this issue during an assessment of GPI implementation and placed this issue into its CAP. (IR924237)
  • Objective 1.4 c.- At the time of this inspection, an evaluation had not been performed and documented on the decommissioning impacts resulting from remediation activities or the absence thereof (e.g., do licensee procedures include a decision making process to evaluate prompt remediation or delayed remediation and its impact on decommissioning). Exelon identified this issue during an assessment of GPI implementation and placed this issue into its CAP. (IR924237) .
  • GPI Objective 1.5 * Exelon developed program procedures to establish a record keeping program to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.75{g) and developed an historical spill/leak list. However, Exelon identified during a June 2010 audit, that the individual record files did not reflect some information contained in station files.

Exelon initiated a review to ensure all appropriate information, consistent with criteria in 10 CFR 50.75(g) and the program procedure, were included in its decommissioning files. Exelon placed this matter into its CAP. (IR1081998)

  • GPI Objective 3.2 a. - An independent, knowledgeable individual had not performed, under the auspices of NEr, an initial review within one year of the initial self assessment, per GPI Objective 3.1.a. This assessment was completed on February 28,2010. Exelon placed this matter into its CAP. (lR1041430).

.2 (Closed) URI 05000277 and 278/2008007-03 - Vital Bus Degraded Voltage Protection a. Inspection SCOru2 During the 2008 Component Design Bases Inspection (CDBI), the team identified an URI to determine if the PBAPS approved licensing bases included the use of automatic load tap changers (LTCs) to protect the vital bus from unacceptable [ow voltage conditions during a LOCA. Specifically, during a review of Exelon's load flow and vital bus voltage calculations to verify the minimum vital bus voltage needed to ensure operation of safety-related loads required during design basis events was adequate, the team determined that voltages used in these analyses were not based on the trip set pOint of the TS Function 4 (LOCA) degraded voltage relay. Instead, Exelon used higher voltages than were afforded by the Function 4 relays by crediting voltage improvement due to operation of the non-safety related startup transformer LTCs in their analysis.

The team found that if the LTCs were not credited, voltage levels on the vital buses as supplied by offsite power might not be sufficient to provide adequate voltage to safety related equipment; however, the voltage levels could be high enough to prevent the transfer of the buses to the onsite power source (EDGs). The licensee stated that their approach was acceptable because the NRC had given this credit when it reviewed and approved certain voltage studies submitted as part of licensing actions related to the degraded voltage relays. In particular, Exelon stated that their evaluation submitted to the NRC as part of license amendment number 143/145 included the operation of the tap changers and the NRC had approved this in the license amendment. .

To resolve the issue, Region I initiated a riA to request assistance from the Office of NRR in answering questions regarding the licensing basis for the degraded voltage relays at PBAPS. Specifically, in TIA 2009-007, Region I requested assistance in determining the current licensing basis for the degraded bus voltage protection, and whether the current licensing basis for degraded voltage relay settings included credit for the LTCs on the startup transformers to protect the Class 1E equipment during a design basis LOCA NRR issued the final response to the TIA on September 29, 2010 (ML102710178). which included a review of all the license amendments and the safety evaluations (SEs) associated with the degraded grid relays.

The inspectors reviewed the final TIA response and the licensing amendments, to evaluate the adequacy of the Exelon's calculations and analyses to ensure adequate voltage was available to the safety-related loads following a design basis LOCA.

Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.

b. Findings Introduction: The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green)

involving a NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," in that Exelon did not use the voltage levels provided by the degraded grid relay setpoints to determine the operability of safety-related components. Specifically, the inspectors found that calculation PE 0121, in which the voltage used to determine operability of safety-related equipment was determined, credited operation of the non-safety related LTCs to determine the voltage level instead of the degraded grid relay setpoints specified in the TSs.

Enclosure

Description: As noted in the final TIA 2009-007 response, NRR determined that the PBAPS current licensing basis for degraded voltage relay settings does not include credit for the LTCs on the startup transformers to protect the Class 1E safety-related equipment during a design basis LOCA. Specifically, NRR concluded the following:

  • The PBAPS current licensing basis describes operation of the LTCs to supply the design specified voltage to Class 1E equipment during a design basis LOCA if the LTCs are capable of maintaining proper voltage levels and off-site power is available.

However, the under voltage relays are relied upon for the safety-related function to separate from the off-site power source and protect Class 1E equipment if proper voltage is not maintained. Therefore, the degraded voltage relay setpoints must be determined and used in component design bases calculations such that proper voltage levels as defined by GL 79-36 will be supplied to Class 1E equipment without reliance on the LTCs.

  • The licensee must demonstrate that the existing degraded voltage trip setpoints, including allowable values and time delays shown in PBAPS TS Table 3.3.8.1, are adequate to protect and provide the required minimum voltage to all safety~related equipment. Since the LTCs are not safety-related and are subject to operational limitations and credible single failures, they cannot be relied on to establish degraded voltage relay setpoints and time delay input for design basis calculations.

Based on the above, the inspectors informed Exelon that the voltage levels used in their current calculations were not correct and that to show the safety-related equipment would be operable during design basis events the TS degraded grid relay setpoints must be used. Exelon performed electrical calculations using the most limiting voltage level allowed by the TSs and determined that multiple components would not have adequate voltage. Exelon performed an operability determination, which included electrical calculations that assumed voltage levels based on the degraded grid relay reset value, and established some compensatory actions.. Exelon concluded that these components could be considered operable but that PBAPS was non-conforming with the licensing basis. The deficiencies were entered into Exelon's CAP for resolution. The team reviewed Exelon's operability evaluation and compensatory measures, and found them reasonable.

Analysis: The team determined that the failure to ensure that adequate voltage was provided to all safety-related components as allowed by the degraded voltage relays was a performance deficiency and was reasonably within Exelon's ability to foresee and prevent. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the design control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Also, this issue was similar to Example 3j of NRC IMC 0612, Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues,"

because the condition resulted in reasonable doubt of the operability of the offsite power source supply voltage to 4160V safety buses, and additional analysis was necessary to determine operability.

The inspectors, including the Region I SRAs, determined the significance of the finding using IMe 0609.04, "Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was a design deficiency that impacted operability but not functionality, did not represent a loss Enclosure

of system safety function, did not represent an actual loss of safety function of a single train, and did not screen as potentially risk significant due to a seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. Specifically, the actual ability of offsite power to maintain adequate voltage during a design basis LOCA was not impacted by the finding.

There was no cross-cutting issue associated with the finding because the degraded grid relay setpoints had been most recently evaluated in 2004 and the issue was not reflective of current performance.

Enforcement: 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as defined in § 50.2 and as specified in the license application, for those SSCs to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into speCifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. Contrary to this requirement between April 13, 1989, and September 29, 2010, Exelon did not use the setpoint for safety-related SSC's, specifically the Function 4 degraded grid relay trip setpoint, as a design input to ensure adequate voltage was available to all safety-related components required to respond to a design basis LOCA. Specifically, calculation PE 0121, "Voltage Regulation Study,"

was used to establish the voltage level as the design input for system operability instead of the TS value for the trip set point of the Function 4 relay. Because this violation was of very low safety significance {Green} and has been entered into Exelon's CAP (IR 1119440), this violation is being treated as a NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. NCV 05000277,278/2010004-03, Failure to Ensure Adequate Voltage was Available to Safety-related Equipment.

.3 NRC Investigation Report Nos.1-2009-053 and 1-2009-046: EA-10-093 and EA-10-121 a. Inspection Scope On September 16, 2010, the NRC issued a letter to Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon). The letter referred to two investigations by the U. S. NRC's Office of Investigations (01) that were conducted at Exelon's PBAPS. The investigations were conducted to determine whether two individuals separately engaged in deliberate misconduct while employed at Peach Bottom. Both occurrences were initially reported to the NRC by Exelon.

b. Findings and Observations The September 16,2010, letter from the NRC to Exelon (ML102590516 4) described a SL IV NCVof 10 CFR 50.9 and 10 CFR 73.56(c}. This finding is being discussed in this inspection report so that it may be captured in the Plant Issues Matrix (PIM) and be used as an input for plant assessment purposes. Issues associated with this finding have been entered in the CAP as IR 956017 and IR 1129794. The finding is designated in the PIM as NCV 05000-277 & 278/2010009-01, Inaccurate Personnel History Questionnaire.
