NRC Inspection Reports 50-237/98005; 50-249/98005

This inspection report contains the findings and conclusions from the inspection of the licensed

reactor operator (RO) and senior reactor operator (SRO) requalification training programs. The

inspection included a review of training administrative procedures and operating examination

material; observation and evaluation of operator performance and licensee evaluators during a

requalification operating examination; an assessment of simulator fidelity; an evaluation of

program controls to assure a systems approach to training; and a review of requalification

training records. In addition, the inspectors observed a period of control room operations. The

inspectors used the guidance in inspection procedures (IP) 71001 and 71707.

Operations

The inspectors concluded that licensed operators discharged their duties in an efficient

and professional manner. The control room operators were very attentive to the control

panel indications and promptly communicated any abnormalities. The control room

decorum was businesslike. (Section 01.1)

In general, the licensed operator continuing training program was implemented in

accordance with program guidance and met the regulatory requirements. (Section 05)

The inspectors identified a violation in which procedures addressing the operations of a

safeguards diesel generator were lacking appropriate guidance and the level of detail

among related procedures were not consistent. (Section 03.1)

The inspectors identified a violation in which documentation of medical qualification data

  • and test results for an operator performing the function of a licensed operator was not

maintained or made available for NRC review upon request. (Section 05.6)

Control Room Observations

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors observed routine control room activities and a shift turnover during the

inspection week, performed a dual unit panel walk-down, reviewed control room logs,

and questioned operators about plant and equipment status.

b.

Observations and Findings

Control room operators were noted to be monitoring control room indications

methodically and often. Control room operator demeanor was professional and

communications were clear and concise. The control room operators were especially

vigilant during a pre-job brief to review operator responsibilities and discuss safety

measures for a control rod exercise. This was reinforced during the execution of the

control rod alignment evolution. Access to the control room was properly controlled by

the control room supervisor which resulted in a quiet, businesslike environment in the

control room.

c.

  • Conclusions

The inspectors concluded that licensed operators discharged their duties in an efficient

and professional manner. The control room operators were very attentive to the control

panel indications and promptly communicated any abnormalities. The control room

decorum was businesslike.

Operations Procedures and Documentation

03.1

Procedure Review - Diesel Generator Operations

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's operating procedures relating to the startup,

shutdown, and testing of the safeguards emergency diesel generators. The following

procedures were referenced:

DOP 6500-09, Bus 24-1 to Bus 34-1 Tie Breaker Operation Utilizing U2(3) DIG,

Revision 07

DOP 6600-02, Diesel Generator 2(3) Startup, Revision 16

3

DOP 6600-03, Diesel Generator 2(3) Shutdown, Revision 11

DOS 6600-01, Diesel *Generator Surveillance Tests, Revision 55

DOS 6600-12, Diesel Generator Tests - Endurance and Margin/Full Load

Rejection/ECCS Fast Start, Revision 12

OAP 07-50, "Conduct of Safe Operations," Revision 01, January 04, 1998

b.

Observations and Findings

The inspectors observed four licensed operators during the performance of two

evaluated job performance tasks on the plant specific simulator. The first task directed

an operator to start the Unit 2/3 Diesel Generator (D/G) and adjust the speed and

voltage in accordance with surveillance procedure DOS 6600-01. The second task,

which was performed by a different licensed operator, directed an operator to load the

Unit 2/3 DIG on to Bus 23-1 in accordance with surveillance procedure DOS 6600-01.

The inspectors noted during the performance of the first task that the licensed operators

had difficulty in obtaining the precise values of 60 Hertz and 4160 Volts which was

required by procedure to place the synchroscope in service. Section 12.2.3 of OAP 07-

50, stated, in part, that operations procedures were to be adhered to and complied with

.

.

for a given operation or task. The inspectors noted that the installed meters lacked

precise measurement capability and the governor control response was imprecise. A

review of surveillance procedure DOS 6600-01 and the vendor's manual revealed the

following deficiencies:

(1)

Step 1.12.a. and b. of DOS 6600-01, Procedure section, directed the operator to

adjust D/G speed to 60 Hertz and voltage to 4160 Volts and referenced the

Technical Specification (TS).4.9.A.2.c. surveillance requirements. TS 4.9.A.2.c

stated, in part, that generator voltage and frequency would be verified to be 4160

+/- 420 volts and 60 +/- 1.2 Hz once the diesel's synchronous speed was obtained.

While the TS allowed for instrumentation error, the procedure required a precise

setting which was difficult to obtain at best.

(2)

GM Electro-Motive Stationary Power operating manual for the AB20 Generators,

3rd Edition, July 1979, was reviewed for consistency. The inspectors noted that

the vendor's manual recommended the following sequence of actions prior to

loading the DIG: set the voltage regulator to on, adjust bus and generator

voltages until matched, adjust bus and generator frequency until matched, then

turn on the synchroscope. The licensee acknowledged that the vendor

recommended actions were good industry practices to prevent a high transient

current or reverse power trip during synchronizing operation, but felt that the

guidance provided in Step 1.12.a. and b. was adequate.

The inspectors noted during the performance of the second task that one operator

immediately loaded the DIG to approximately 200 KW following closure of the output

4

breaker and just before placing the synchroscope to off. When questioned, the operator

  • stated a need to load the DIG in order tq prevent a reverse power trip condition. Further

. questioning revealed that the operator had been previously trained to take such an

action. However, the inspectors were unable to substantiate the claim that DIG

operations training had been provided to support the greater action taken. The

inspectors determined that the operator's action was consistent with industry practices

observed at other facilities.

A review of procedure DOS 6600-01 and other operating procedures revealed the

following differences:

(1)

(2)

Step 1.12.c of DOS 6600-01, Procedure section, directed the operator to perform

the following steps in sequence: turn the synchroscope on, adjust the DIG

voltage and governor controls until synchronized with the 4 Kv system, close the

DIG output breaker, turn the synchroscope off, and raise the DIG load to 2470 to

2600 KW.

  • Step 1.5 of DOS 6600-12, Procedure section, substeps d through k, contained

operator actions to load a DIG on to the appropriate bus (similar to DOS 6600-

01 ). The inspectors noted that the procedure's format was not consistent with

. other procedures reviewed. Additionally, the inspectors noted that substep j

contained the operator action to load the DIG to an indicated 2470 to 2600 KW

while monitoring DIG parameters such as voltage (4160 +/- 420) and frequency

(60 +/- 1.2). The inspectors determined that the requirement to monitor voltage

and frequency while loading the DIG was unique to this procedure.

The inspectors continued the review of related DIG procedures which addressed loading

  • and unloading evolutions. A review of procedures DOP 6500-09 and DOP 6600-02

revealed the following deficiencies:

(1)

  • Step E. 7 of DOP 6600-02, Precaution section, stated that a failure to set droop

to 5, voltage to 4160 Volts and frequency to 61 Hertz may prevent the DIG from

coming up to speed and voltage in the event of an AUTO START. The

inspectors noted that the frequency setting specified was not conservative or

consistent with the 60 Hertz setting noted in other DIG operating procedures and

the requirements specified in TS 4.9.A.2.c.

(2) * * Step G.2 of DOP 6600-02, Procedure section, stated that at Panel 902(3)-8,

observe Diesel red RUN light and Volt, AC Ampere, and Kilowatt meters. The

inspectors noted that the precautions and limitations section did not contain any

acceptance criteria and no where else in the procedure was a quantitative

reference found. Indication of improper DIG operation would require operator

understanding or skill of the craft which was .not emphasized during the previous

requalification training biennial cycle.

(3)

Step G.1.g of DOP 6500-09, Procedure section, stated, in part, to unload the

Unit 2 DIG AND open DIG 2 to Bus 24-1 Automatic Control Breaker (ACB}, then

5

shutdown the Unit 2 DIG per 6600-03. However, Step G.1 through G.3 of DOP

6600-03, Procedure section, directed an operator to reduce DIG load to zero

whrle regulating voltage, THEN open the Unit 2 DIG to Bus 24-1 ACB. In a

review of the GM Electro-Motive Stationary Power operating manual for the

AB20 Generators, 3rd Edition, July 1979, the inspectors noted that the vendor's

manual recommended the following sequence of actions to remove generator

load: decrease the load while monitoring the wattmeter and ammeter readings

until both indicated approximately zero, then trip open the main circuit breaker

and set the voltage regulator to off position. The licensee was made.aware of

the procedure discrepancy in August 1997 following completion of a licensed

operator initial examination (Inspection Report No. 50-2371249:97304(DRS)).

Licensed operator candidates' performance during the use of DOP 6500-09 was

diverse and resulted in more than one unanticipated reverse power trip of the

Unit 2 DIG. The inspectors were not made aware of any planned revision or

change to the above procedures at the time of thjs inspection.

Technical Specification 6.8.A required that written procedures be established,

implemented, and maintained covering activities recommended in Appendix A of

Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. TS 6.8.A applied to

emergency diesel generator procedures DOP 6500-09 and DOP 6600-02. The failure to

maintain adequate procedural guidance addressing the loading and unloading evolution

for a safeguards diesel generator was a violation of Tech Spec 6.8.A

(VIO 50-2371249:98005-01 ) ...

c.

Conclusions

The inspectors concluded .that the licensee's procedural guidance for loading and

unloading the diesel generators was not being implemented consistently and deviated

from accepted industry practices. Also, the inspectors determined that current

procedural guidance was inadequate to prevent a high current transient event or an

unplanned reverse power trip under all conditions. The failure to maintain adequate

procedural guidance addressing the operation of a safeguards diesel generator was a

violation of regulatory requirements.

Operator Training and Qualification

05.1

Operating History

a.

Inspection Sc6pe (71001)

The inspectors reviewed the Dresden Generating Station's operating history from

January 1997.to January 1998 to determine if any operator errors occurred that could be

attributed to ineffective or inadequate training. That review included the following:

Past NRC inspection reports

Most recent Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP-15) report

Selected Licensee Event Reports (LERs).

b.

Observations and Findings

The inspectors noted several events related to personnel error and design/installation

deficiencies. Recognized operator knowledge weaknesses and performance

deficiencies were addressed in licensed operator requalification training. Safety related

limiting conditions for operations were also included in the requalification training*

. program as they related to the recent change to standardized technical specifications.

c.

Conclusions

The inspectors concluded that the licensed operator requalification training program had

provided operators with lessons learned and presented training on significant industry

events.

05.2

Requalification Examinations

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors reviewed the training department's sample plan and compared that with

the written examinations and operating tests administered during the inspection period.

A review of previously administered written examinations and operating tests was also

done to verify compliance with program guidance.

TDl-523, "Licensed Operator Annual Requalification Examinations," Revision 02,

February 1996

b.

Observations and Findings

Training instruction TDl-523 was used to evaluate the examination material used during

the annual requalification evaluation period. The inspectors made the following

observations:

7

(1)

The written exam material, which consisted of a Section A and Section B, was

constructed in accordance with program guidelines and provided an effective

evaluation 'tool. Section A made good use of the plant specific simulator and

Section B required a broad spectrum of plant procedures to answer the *

questions provided.

(2)

The plant walk-through (JPM) exam material, which consisted of 5 JPMs per set,

was constructed in accordance with program guidelines and provided an

effective evaluation tool. Multiple sets of JPMs were utilized which built one

  • upon another (i.e. one JPM required an operator to start up an emergency diesel

generator while a.nether JPM required the next operator to.synchronize and load

the running emergency diesel generator).

(3)

. The dynamic simulator exam, which consisted of 2 scenarios, was constructed in

accordance with program guidelines and provided an effective evaluation tool.

Each scenario contained sufficient safety significant tasks to test the operating

crew's ability to safely operate the plant during normal, abnormal, and

emergency conditions.

However, the inspectors noted that one JPM task (Master Trip Solenoid Test) lacked

discrimination value, as written. The task was procedurally driven but only required the

operation of one control switch which was manipulated twice for satisfactory completion

of the assigned task. The inspectors discussed the concern with the licensee. The

licensee acknowledged that the task had low discrimination value and removed it from

their examination bank. A JPM task containing an appropriate level of discrimination

was substituted.*

  • c.

Conclusions

The inspectors concluded that the licensed operator requalification ~xaminations were

prepared in accord.ance with program guidance and contained an appropriate level of

difficulty to distinguish between a competent and non-competent operator.* The annual

examination material also incorporated major attributes of the regulatory guidance that

governs operator licensing standards.

05.3

Requalification Examination Administration Practices

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors performed the following to assess the licensee's practices regarding

requalification examination administration, simulator performance (fidelity), and security

measures:

Observed requalification operating examination administration

Observed requalification written examination administration

8

Interviewed licensee personnel (operators, instructors, training supervisor, and

evaluators)

Reviewed the licensee's administrative procedures

b.

Observations and Findings

The inspectors observed the administration of ten JPMs (six on the plant specific

simulator, four on the plant facility) during the operating examination. Foliowing

completion of each JPM group, each evaluation team members was observed

conducting a performance debrief with the respective licensed operator. This feedback

included observed deficiencies during each JPM performance and the proposed grading

of that performance (pass or fail).

Inspectors observed administration of one dynamic simulator set, which consisted of two

  • scenarios, for one operating crew. The licensed senior reactor operators (SRO) were

rotated between scenarios to allow each one to be evaluated in a technical specification

. required position. Immediately following each dynamic scenario termination, the

evaluators gathered to discuss the need for follow-up questions of each crew member.

After which, the evaluation team met to discuss individual and crew performance. Upon

completion of the scenario set, the evaluation team met to discuss crew performance

and assign a final grade of pass or fail. The evaluation team debriefed the crew on

overall performance shortly following the dynamic set termination arid prior to the end of

the day .

The inspectors observed the written examination (Section A and Section B)

administration using the plant specific simulator and plant procedure. The inspectors

determined that the program guidance was being implemented as outlined.

The inspectors observed the following deficiencies during the JPM evaluation process:

(1)

During the performance of one in-plant JPM, the evaluator became distracted

(i.e. making notes on the evaluation sheet) while the operator was simulating

performance of a fuse removal evolution. During this time, the evaluator

acknowledged the operator's verbal response of performance but a visual

confirmation by the eval.uator was not requested and credit was given for

satisfactory performance. The inspectors observed no adverse performance by

the licensed operator.

(2)

During the performance of one in-plant JPM, the evaluator asked a follow-up

question of the operator to clarify hi.s understanding of the simulated

performance of a control switch (i.e~ did the switch have a pull-to-lock feature?).

The operator's response was acknowledged and accepted as correct without any

independent verification. When questioned, the evaluator noted that the licensed

operator was an electrical engineer and a statement was made "He should

know!"

9

(3)

During the performance of two inplant JPMs, the evaluators did not consistently

require the operators to find/locate tools or procedures, as required, when

performing a task for the first time. Additionally, the same evaluators did not

consistently emphasize management's expectation to use place-keE;lping during

procedural execution.

The inspectors determined that the previously mentioned deficiencies had a minimal

impact on the effectiveness of the evaluation process. These deficiencies were

discussed with the licensee's evaluation team. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's

final evaluation scores and agreed with the evaluation team's assessment of each

operators' performance.

c~

Conclusions

The inspectors concluded that the licensee was implementing the Licensed Operator

Requalification Training (LORT) program in accordance with program guidance and

regulatory requirements stated in 10 CFR Part 55.59. Also, the licensee's evaluation

team conducted themselves in a professional manner and maintained the proper

oversight role, as evident by a high level of detail discussed during the crew/individual

critique of performance.

05.4

Requalification Training Program Feedback System

a.

. Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors performed the following to assess the licensee's training program

feedback system effectiveness:

Reviewed operator and instructor comments on the feedback system

Reviewed revisions to the requalificatipn program _

Interviewed licensee personnel (op~rators, instructors, training supervisor)

b.

Observations and Findings

Through observations and interviews, the inspectors determined that a mechanism for

evaluating performance weaknesses and providing feedback of that evaluation to the

licensed operators was functioning properly. A review committee was actively involved

in the requalification training process to address any weaknesses that were discovered

during operator evaluations and requalification examinations. Other portions of the

feedback system, such as immediate feedback to operator questions during classroom

and simulator training sessions, were functioning properly .

10

c.

Conclusions

The inspectors determined that the feedback portion of the Systematic Approach to

Training (SAT) program was properly implemented and functioning.

05.5

Remedial Training Program

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors performed a review of the following records and procedures to assess

the licensee's remedial training program effectiveness:

Proposed remediation training plans

Completed remediation packages

OAP 08-01, "Training Program Administration," Revision 07, May 01, 1997

TPD-103, "Licensed Operator Continuing Training Program," Revision 01,

January 06, 1998

TDl-523, "Licensed Operator Annual Requalification Examinations," Revision 02,

February 1996

TDl-105, "Performance Evaluation Committee," Revision 06, February 1996

b.

Observations and Findings

The inspectors reviewed three remediation packages (dated 3/3/97, 2/2/98, and 2/9/98)

associated with operating crew failures. Two of the remediation packages addressed

the failure of all crew members in one competency area with all critical tasks being

completed satisfactorily. The third remediation package addressed a failure of all crew

members to satisfactorily complete a critical task involving termination of an injection

path. In the latter case, the inspectors noted that some of the individual operator

performance summary sheets did not contain a comment addressing the poor

performance even though specific problems with crew and individual performance was

identified on the team evaluation sheet. The inspectors noted that the evaluation team

leader was responsible for ensuring each individual* performance sheets contained the

appropriate level of comments.

Section 8.e.(5) 9f TDl-523 stated, in part, that the results of each scenario,

including any identified weaknesses, shall be recorded on Form C, Dynamic

Evaluation/Individual Performance Summary by the lead evaluator.

The inspectors determined that, while the level of detail varied among the remediation

packages, no evidence of an improper or inadequate level of remediation and re-testing

was apparent.

11

The inspectors noted that two distinct forms were used for documenting performance

deficiencies and recommending remediation training. Even though both forms required

the same basic information, the level of management review was different. The

following observations were noted during the review of the associated procedures:

(1)

Step E.1 of DAP 08-01 stated, in part, that Training Program Descriptions

(TPDs) were designed to describe and implement specific training programs, and

that Training Department Instructions (TDls) were procedures used in

conjunction with DAP 08-01 to implement the training policies and processes.

Also, Section D.1 of Supplement 8, "Performance Review Committee Charter," in

DAP 08 stated, in part, that a formal performance review (PRC) was to be

conducted when a trainee failed to meet the established knowledge or skills

performance standard established in the respective TPD and the PRC's

recommendation and the Line Manager's decision would be recorded on a

NTAFT form, "Performance Evaluation Data Sheet." The inspectors noted that a

NTAFT form was used to document both the 2/2/98 and 2/9/98 performance

deficiencies and recommended remedial training'.

(2)

Section A.1.2 of TPD-103 referenced the use of training instruction TDl-523

when performing annual requalification e.xams:

Section 9 of TDl-523 stated, in part, that a failure of any portion of the annual

requalification examination required prompt action as described in training

instruction TDl-105 to determine a remediation program and subsequent training.

Section 8 of TDl-105 stated, in part, that the Training Supervisor would record

the committee's recommendation on a TDl-105 Form A, "Performance

Evaluation Committee Data Sheet," and the appropriate Line Supervisor would

record the final decision on Form A and sign it. The inspectors noted that a TDl-

105 Form A was*utilized to document the 3/3/97 performance deficiencies and

recommended remedial training.

The inspectors determined that while the requirements for performance review and

remediation training were adequate, programmatic overlap existed. The inspectors

discussed the findings with the licensee. The licensee informed the inspectors that a

conscious effort had been put in place to use the NTAFT form for documentation of.

performance, but agreed to review the findings.

c.

Conclusions

The inspectors conduded that the remediation program was being implemented in

accordance with regulatory requirements. However, the inspectors determined that the

inconsistencies in program implementation occurred based upon conflicting procedural

guidance .

12

05.6

Conformance With Operator License Conditions

a.

Inspection Scope (71001)

The inspectors reviewed medical records, operations logs, and watchstander proficiency

lists, and interviewed operations personnel to determine the status of active operator

licenses to assess the facility and licensed operators' compliance with 10 CFR 55.53

license condition requirements.

b.

Observations and Findings

The inspectors reviewed 8 licensed operator m~dical records (11% of the total available)

which included 4 licensed operators that were due for medical review by the end of *

January 1998. The medical records for the 4 licensed operators due in January 1998

did not contain current medical data, which was requested. A short time later, the

licensee provided copies for 3 of the 4 records, but acknowledged that one record could

not be located and was not available for review. Following an investigation, the licensee

informed the inspectors that the record in question had been misplaced and could not

be located. The licensee initiated prompt corrective action to have the licensed operator

immediately re-evaluated by a physician. The licensee reported to the inspectors that

the licensed operator had been verified to be medically qualified to perform licensed

duties and a partial set of test results from January 1998 had been located.

The inspectors reviewed TDl-502, "Administrative Process for NRC Licenses," Revision

03, Jan1:1ary 1996, which included a process for addressing biennial medical

examinations. Methods Section 2.c of TDl-502 stated, in part, that the medical

examination would be completed at least 60 days prior to the medical expiration date to

ensure on time processing. Also, Methods Section 2.d stated, in part, that the NRC

review nurse would forward a "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee"

- NRC Form 396 to the License Coordinator. The inspectors identified that none of the 4

medical records reviewed, with expiration dates in January 1998, had a current NRC

Form 396. Also, the inspectors identified that the medical evaluation dates for the 4

records reviewed were performed less than 30 days from the expiration date.

1 o. CFR 55.27, "Documentation," requires that the facility licensee maintain the results of

medical qualification data arid test results, and provide the documentation to the

Commission upon request Failure to maintain adequate controls to ensure availability

of current medical data and provide such data to the NRC upon request on February 13,

1998, constitutes a violation of this requirement (VIO 50-2371249:98005-02). The

  • inspectors determined that the failure occurred due to an improper application of TDl-

502 to ensure medical exams were scheduled at least 60 days prior to expiration date

and to followup on the supporting documentation in a timely manner. *

c.

Conclusions

The inspectors concluded that the licensee's program to ensure licensed operator

compliance with regulatory requirements was inadequate. The licensee's administrative

13

guidelines were not beirig implemented in accordance with program guidance to ensure

a timely review and verification. This became apparent when a medical record could not

be located when requested by the inspectors. The failure to maintain appropriate

documentation of medical data and provide that to the NRC upon request was a

violation of regulatory requirements.

Management Meetings

X1

Exit Meeting Summary

The inspectors met with licensee representatives on February 13 and March 3, 1998, to discuss

  • the scope and findings of the inspection. During the exit meetings, the inspectors discussed the

processes reviewed by the inspectors during the conduct of this inspection and the likely

content of the final inspection report. Licensee representatives did not identify any documents

or processes as proprietary.
