UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 April 26, 2016 Mr. Bryan C. Hanson President and Chief Nuclear Officer Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555

SUBJECT:

THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1 - AUDIT OF EXELON GENERATION COMPANY, LLC'S MANAGEMENT OF REGULATORY COMMITMENTS (CAC NO. MF6608)

Dear Mr. Hanson:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) informed licensees in Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2000-17, "Managing Regulatory Commitments Made by Power Reactor Licensees to the NRC Staff, dated September 21, 2000, that the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document NEI 99-04, "Guidelines for Managing NRC Commitment Changes," contains acceptable guidance for controlling regulatory commitments. RIS 2000-17 encouraged licensees to use the NEI guidance or similar administrative controls to ensure that regulatory commitments are implemented and that changes to the regulatory commitments are evaluated and, when appropriate, reported to the NRC.

The NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation has instructed its staff to perform an audit of licensees' commitment management programs once every 3 years to determine whether the licensees' programs are consistent with the industry guidance in NEI 99-04 and that regulatory commitments are being effectively implemented. The previous audit of the licensee's commitment management program for Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (TMl-1) was documented in an NRC letter dated December 28, 2012 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML12348A353).

An audit of the commitment management program for TMl-1 was performed during the last quarter of 2015, with the onsite portion taking place October 13 - 16, 2015. As a result of the

B. Hanson audit, the NRC staff concludes that TMl-1 has implemented NRC commitments on a timely basis and TMl-1 has implemented an effective program for managing NRC commitment changes. Details of the audit are set forth in the enclosed audit report.

Sincerely,

  • -ilkfI Robert L. Gladney, Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch 1-2 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-289

AUDIT REPORT BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION OF REGULA TORY COMMITMENTS MADE BY EXELON GENERATION COMPANY, LLC TO THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION FOR THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1 DOCKET NO. 50-289

1.0 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) informed licensees in Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2000-17, "Managing Regulatory Commitments Made by Power Reactor Licensees to the NRC Staff," dated September 21, 2000 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML003741774), that the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) document NEI 99-04, "Guidelines for Managing NRC Commitment Changes" (ADAMS Accession No. ML003680088), contains acceptable guidance for controlling regulatory commitments. RIS 2000-17 encouraged licensees to use the NEI guidance or similar administrative controls to ensure that regulatory commitments are implemented and that changes to the regulatory commitments are evaluated and, when appropriate, reported to the NRC. NEl-99-04 defines a "regulatory commitment" as an explicit statement to take a specific action agreed to, or volunteered by, a licensee and submitted in writing on the docket to the NRC.

The NRC Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) has instructed its staff to perform an audit of licensees' commitment management programs once every 3 years to determine whether the licensees' programs are consistent with the industry guidance in NEI 99-04 and that regulatory commitments are being effectively implemented. NRR guidelines direct the NRR Project Manager to audit the licensee's commitment management program by assessing the adequacy of the licensee's implementation of a sample of commitments made to the NRC in past licensing actions (amendments, reliefs, exemptions, etc.) and activities (bulletins, generic letters, etc.).

An audit of the commitment management program for Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 (TMl-1) was performed during the last quarter of 2015, with the onsite portion taking place October 13 - 16, 2015. The previous audit of the licensee's commitment management program for TMl-1 was documented in an NRC letter dated December 28, 2012 (ADAMS Accession No. ML12348A353).

2.0 AUDIT PROCEDURE AND RESULTS The audit was performed in accordance with the guidance in NRR Office Instruction LIC-105, Revision 5, "Managing Regulatory Commitments Made by Licensees to the NRC," dated September 16, 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. ML13193A358). The NRC staff reviewed commitments made during the period since the previous audit. The audit consisted of three major parts: (1) verification of the licensee's implementation of NRC commitments that have been completed; (2) verification of the licensee's program for managing changes to NRC Enclosure

commitments; and (3) verification that all regulatory commitments reviewed were correctly applied in NRC staff licensing action reviews.

2.1 Verification of Licensee's Implementation of NRC Commitments The primary focus of this part of the audit is to confirm that the licensee has implemented commitments made to the NRC as part of past licensing actions/activities. For commitments not yet implemented, the NRC staff determines whether they have been captured in an effective program for future implementation. The audit also verifies that the licensee's commitment management system includes a mechanism to ensure traceability of commitments following initial implementation. This ensures that licensee personnel are able to recognize that future proposed changes to the affected design features or operating practices require evaluation in accordance with the commitment change control process.

Prior to the audit, the licensee provided the NRC staff with a list of regulatory commitments from its PassPort Action Tracking Program, which is the licensee's system used for commitment management at TMI, as well as the applicable regulatory commitment management procedures.

The licensee's list of regulatory commitments included open commitments, commitments initiated since December 2012 (and prior), and commitments closed within the audit window.

The license also provided the previous biennial report to the NRC containing commitments that were changed in 2012 and 2013. 1 During the onsite portion of the audit, the licensee provided additional documentation for the commitments requested for the audit, as well as several commitment change evaluation forms (CCEFs) and other documentation for commitments changed from 2013 to 2015. For the sampled commitments, the licensee provided PassPort Tracking Numbers (Exelon Tracking Nos.), brief commitment descriptions, licensee letter numbers, commitment due dates and completion dates, and other associated documentation.

2.1.1 Audit Scope The audit addressed a sample of commitments made during the review period. The audit focused on regulatory commitments (as defined above) made in writing to the NRC as a result of past licensing actions (amendments, exemptions, etc.) or licensing activities (bulletins, generic letters, etc.). Before the audit, the NRC staff searched ADAMS for the licensee's submittals since the last audit and selected a representative sample for verification. The commitments included in the review are described in Table 1 of this Audit Report.

The audit excluded the following types of commitments that are internal to licensee processes:

(1) Commitments made on the licensee's own initiative among internal organizational components.

(2) Commitments that pertain to milestones of licensing actions/activities (e.g., respond to an NRC request for additional information by a certain date). Fulfillment of these commitments was indicated by the fact that the subject licensing action/activity was completed.

1 "Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 - Biennial 10 CFR 50.59 and Commitment Revision Reports for 2012 and 2013" (ADAMS Accession No. ML14106A020), dated April 16, 2014, for 2012 and 2013 commitments.

(3) Commitments made as an internal reminder to take actions to comply with existing regulatory requirements such as regulations, technical specifications (TSs), and updated final safety analysis reports (UFSARs). Fulfillment of these commitments was indicated by the licensee having taken timely action in accordance with the subject requirements.

2.1.2 Audit Results Table 1 provides the results of the audit for the verification of the licensee's implementation of commitments. For the sampled commitments, the NRC staff determined that the licensee had appropriately implemented the closed commitments and scheduled the open commitments for future implementation. The staff also determined that the commitment tracking database allows for the adequate traceability of implemented commitments. There were no significant issues identified for this part of the audit. Section 2.4 of this report provides additional observations.

2.2 Verification of the Licensee's Program for Managing NRC Commitment Changes The primary focus of this part of the audit is to verify that the licensee has established administrative controls for modifying or deleting commitments made to the NRC. The NRC staff compared the licensee's process for controlling regulatory commitments to the guidelines in NEI 99-04, which the NRC has found to be an acceptable guide for licensees to follow for managing and changing commitments. The process used at TMl-1 is primarily contained in licensee procedures LS-AA-110, Revision 11, "Commitment Management," and LS-AA-110-1001, Revision 7, "Commitment Tracking Program T&RM 2 [Training and Reference Material]: For Use with PassPort." This part of the audit also included a review of a sample of commitment changes, as described in Table 2, which included changes that were or will be reported to the NRC, and changes that were not or will not be reported to the NRC.

2.2.1 Audit Results The NRC staff reviewed the licensee's procedures LS-AA-110, Revision 11 and LS-AA-110-1001, Revision 7, against NEI 99-04 to ensure that guidance in this procedure is consistent with the intent of NEI 99-04, and that the licensee is appropriately implementing regulatory commitment changes, as well as tracking changes to the commitments. Section 6.1 of LS-AA-110 lists NEI 99-04 as a reference. The NRC staff found that the procedures generally follow the guidance of NEI 99-04 and provide detailed instructions for making regulatory commitments, tracking regulatory commitments, annotating documents to provide traceability of commitments, and for making changes to commitments. The NRC staff concludes that the procedures used by the licensee to manage commitments provide the necessary attributes for an effective commitment management program.

During the audit, the NRC staff observed that the licensee had provided, "Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 1 - Biennial 10 CFR [Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations] 50.59 and Commitment Revision Reports for 2012 and 2013," dated April 16, 2014, for 2012 and 2013 commitments, but had not provided a report of 2014 and 2015 commitment revisions. NEI 99-04 does not limit the licensee to only annual reporting to the NRC, but instead requires "notification to the NRC made in a report submitted annually or along with the FSAR updates as 2 The licensee provides this acronym as part of the procedure title.

required by 10 CFR 50.71 (e)." However, licensee procedure LS-AA-110, step 4.7.3, does require that a written report of commitment changes be submitted to the NRC every calendar year. The NRC resident inspectors provided the NRC auditor with licensee Assignment Report (AR) 02568457, which the licensee had previously written to document the issue, take the immediate action to discuss this with site and corporate licensee personnel, and to schedule actions to submit reports to the NRC in 2016 and 2017. As a result, the NRC staff expanded this portion of the commitment audit sample to include 2014 and 2015 commitments. In addition, the NRC auditor and resident inspectors discussed this issue with the licensee during the audit and at the exit meeting.

In addition, the NRC staff observed that while the licensee is required to complete LS-AA-110, , "Commitment Change Evaluation Form," per LS-AA-110, Section 4.6, there were instances in which a CCEF was not available. As detailed in Table 2 of this report, there were several commitments in which the licensee notified the NRC of the commitment changes and is tracking them in the licensee commitment tracking database, but did not have an available CCEF. The NRC staff discussed this requirement with the licensee.

Table 2 provides the detailed results of the audit of commitment changes for TMl-1. There were no significant issues identified in this part of the audit. However, some observations were made, as explained above and in Section 2.4 of this report.

2.3 Review to Identify Misapplied Commitments The commitments reviewed for this audit were also evaluated to determine if they had been misapplied. A commitment is considered to be misapplied if the action comprising the commitment was relied on by the NRC staff in making a regulatory decision, such as a finding of public health and safety in an NRC safety evaluation associated with a licensing action.

Reliance on an action to support a regulatory decision must be elevated from a regulatory commitment to a legal obligation (e.g., license condition, condition of a relief request, regulatory exemption limitation or condition). A commitment is also considered to have been misapplied if the commitment involves safety-significant actions (i.e., commitments used to ensure safety).

The current version of LIC-105, Revision 5, states that the NRC staff should take the following actions to identify misapplied commitments:

( 1) Determine if the commitment reviewed involves actions that were safety significant (i.e., commitments used to ensure safety).

(2) Determine if the commitment reviewed involves actions that were necessary for approval of a proposed licensing action.

The scope of this portion of the audit includes reviewing each of the commitments selected for the audit sample (i.e., Tables 1 and 2) to determine if any had been misapplied (per the two criteria shown above). No misapplied commitments were identified for this portion of the audit.

2.3.1 Review of Safety Evaluation Reports for Licensing Actions since the Last Audit to Determine if They Are Properly Captured as Commitments or Obligations In addition, all license amendment, relief request, and exemption safety evaluations that have been issued for a facility since the previous audit were identified. Table 3 lists each of these documents for TMl-1. The NRC staff identified all commitments discussed in these documents and evaluated each commitment to determine if it had been misapplied based on the two criteria discussed in Section 2.3.1 of this report.

The details and results for this portion of the audit are provided in Table 3 of this report. No misapplied commitments were identified for this portion of the audit.

2.4 Audit Observations During the audit, the NRC staff had the following observations. These observations were communicated to the licensee during the audit.

(1) The NRC staff observed that commitments for multiple Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) plants are maintained in the same commitment tracking database. However, the licensee is able to easily and effectively narrow its search criteria to TMl-1 commitments.

Tracking the commitments in this database also allows the licensee to maintain consistency with how it manages various commitments across its fleet.

(2) As indicated previously in this report, the licensee primarily uses two procedures for commitment management at TMl-1: LS-AA-110 and LS-AA-110-1001. While another procedure, LS-AA-110-1002, "Commitment Tracking Program for Use with PIMS," is also used at other plants within the Exelon fleet for commitment management, the licensee indicated that the Plant Information Management System is used at TMl-1 for corrective actions and not for commitment management. None of these commitment management procedures provide information regarding which are used at each specific site and under what conditions they should be utilized. The licensee should provide clarifying guidance in a procedure or other document so that this information is readily available.

(3) Licensee procedure LS-AA-110, step 4.7.3, requires the licensee to submit an annual commitment revision report to the NRC. During the audit, the NRC staff observed that the last summary report submitted was by letter dated April 16, 2014, which addressed 2012 and 2013 commitments. No summary report was submitted for 2014 commitments.

Prior to the onsite portion of the audit, the licensee identified that it had not submitted this annual report. The licensee wrote AR 02568457, "Commitment Changes Not Submitted to NRC Annually," on October 9, 2015, which is described below and in Section 2.2.1 of this report, and included actions to address this issue.

  • Actions regarding AR 02568457:

o This AR noted that although LS-AA-110, step 4.7.3, requires an annual summary report to the NRC for commitment revisions, the practice has been to submit it with the 10 CFR 50.59 report biennially, per LS-AA-104, "Exelon 50.59 Review Process."

o The immediate action taken was that the site and corporate Regulatory Assurance groups discussed the procedural requirement for sending an annual report of commitment changes.

o Recommended actions included providing a report of 2014 and 2015 commitment changes to the NRC in April 2016, and creating an assignment to report 2016 commitment changes by March 31, 2017. In addition, the licensee's staff provided CCEFs 14-01through14-09, 15-01, and 15-02, and associated documentation, to the NRC staff during the onsite portion of the audit.

Accordingly, the NRC staff expanded its sample of commitments evaluated in the audit to include samples from this subset.

(4) Licensee procedure LS-AA-110, Section 4.6, requires that CCEFs (LS-AA-110, Attachment 1) be completed for all commitment changes. The NRC staff determined that there were commitment changes for which CCEFs were not provided. Included within this issue is a conflict in licensee procedures LS-AA-110 and LS-AA-110-1001, since LS-AA-110, step 4.6.4, item 6, states that, "If the proposed change is rejected, then the requester may discard the CCEF," whereas LS-AA-110-1001, step 5.1, states that, "Documentation associated with regulatory commitment changes shall be maintained for the life of the facility as a 'life of the plant' record." The licensee wrote AR 2596888 to address this issue by evaluating LS-AA-11 O and to make changes, as appropriate, so that it provides additional guidance and clarification for CCEF documentation and retention.

(5) The licensee is able to track commitments by classifying them as such in its database, but there are no separate classifications for commitment revisions and obligations. The NRC staff observed that while the licensee can perform a word search to find commitment revisions and obligations within its commitment tracking database, it would be more effective if these items could be more easily classified, identified, and tracked.

Another observation was described in TMI Integrated Inspection Report 5000289/2015003 (ADAMS Accession No. ML15306A380), dated November 2, 2015, which documented a finding of very low safety significance (Green). This finding did not involve an NRC violation but was concerning a commitment from original plant construction that was not implemented. The resident inspectors determined that the licensee failed to perform fire service system modifications for mitigating the potential impact of a pipe rupture in the auxiliary building as committed to the NRC in a letter dated November 10, 1972. As stated in the inspection report, this was determined to be a Green finding because, "the finding is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss of system safety function or loss of a single train for greater than its allowed TS time, does not result in the loss of a high safety-significant maintenance rule train and does not involve the loss of function to mitigate internal flooding

events." The inspection report indicated that the licensee documented this in Incident Report (IR) 2544387, performed an immediate operability evaluation, and developed corrective actions.

(AR 2547232 was also written and incorporates additional actions.)

In addition, the licensee documented an error regarding Exelon Tracking No. 1122072-01 in IR 2449863, "Commitment Frequency Changed Out of Process." In this IR, the following was stated:

Generic Letter 89-13 Program basis document ER-TM-340-1001 contains commitment 32, perform AH-C-4B Control Building Chiller Annual Inspection (PM000269). Per the Generic Letter commitment, this inspection is to be done on a one year frequency. In May of 2013, the frequency was changed by a system engineer to 1.5 years via AR [evaluation] A2277159-69 and no commitment change was processed.

As described above, the preventive maintenance (PM) frequency associated with the referenced commitment had been temporarily changed out of process from 1 year to 1.5 years.

Based upon the licensee's documentation, the PM frequency was changed due to reliability issues with the opposite train chiller and because the initiator of the change did not realize that the PM frequency was associated with a regulatory commitment.

  • Actions regarding IR 2449863:

o As an immediate action, the licensee discussed this with the system engineer for processing of the frequency correction in accordance with evaluation A1721611-10.

o Recommended action also included performing a review of all PM activities that implement GL 89-13 commitments to ensure that the PM activities have the correct frequencies and appropriate language.

3.0 CONCLUSION

The NRC staff concludes, based on the audit, that (1) the licensee has implemented NRC commitments on a timely basis; (2) the licensee has implemented an effective program for managing NRC regulatory commitment changes that is consistent with the guidance in NEI 99-04; and (3) the regulatory commitments reviewed were correctly applied in NRC staff licensing action reviews.

The SE states the following:

"Based on the NRC staffs review, the staff finds that the licensee's current proposed amendment only requests the deletion of the Annual Reporting requirement for the NUREG-0737-related Periodic Leak Reduction program and that the licensee's commitment to the program as was stated by the licensee in its 1/23/81, response to the staffs 50.54(f) letter mentioned above, is not affected by the proposed change. Furthermore, according to the licensee's response to the RAI, the program will be reflected in its licensing basis by revising UFSAR Section 6.4, 'Engineered Safeguards Leakage and Radiation Considerations.' In addition, the licensee stated that the requirements for the program are currently addressed in its leakaqe surveillance procedures."

S. 6/24/13 ASME Class 2 & 3 Piping indicated that there were no regulatory commitments but it (ML13176A143) incorrectly refers to requirements of the relief request as a 12/12113 commitment. The NRC staff discussed this with the (ML13351A410) licensee during the onsite portion of the audit to confirm 4/28/14 that the licensee was aware of the need for this clarification (ML14119A289) in its submittals as well as NRC expectations regarding commitments and obligations identification and manaqement.

The SE indicates that TMl-1 responded to Generic Letter 80-14 and committed valves CF-VF5A/B and DH-V22A/B to specified maximum allowable leakage rate criteria. As noted in the SE, this leakage criteria was revised. The SE states the following: "The NRC staff completed a review of the licensee's system configuration, installed components, inservice testing program plan, and the maintenance history. The review confirms that pressure relief valves are installed and are capable of meeting the revised leakage criteria. The NRC staff also confirmed that the valves are qualified and tested to the requirements of the ASME OM Code and have an acceptable maintenance leakage historv."

commitments for TMI that are regarding CSP implementation schedule and implementation of Safety, Security, and Emergency Planning (SSEP) functions.

As indicated in the NRC staff's SE (dated 7/30/15), the licensee's proposed changes to the commitments were approved. Also. as stated in Section 3.3 of the SE: "The CSP implementation schedules are obligations under 10 CFR 73.54 and the associated amendments approving the CSP for each facility. As such, changes to the CSP implementation schedules will require NRC approval in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90. Therefore, the licensee should not be managing the CSP implementation schedules as regulatory commitments."

The licensee's documentation notes this and that a change would require NRC aooroval per 10 CFR 50.90.

Note 3: The scope of this portion of the audit includes a review of the license amendments. relief requests. and exemptions issued since the previous TMl-1 audit. The intent of the review is to determine the extent to which commitments have been misapplied (e.g .. commitment relied on by NRC staff rather than elevating it to an obligation or incorporating the commitment into a mandated licensing basis document). See Audit Report Section 2.3 for more details.
