INTRODUCTION The Systematic Evaluation Program Branch (SEPB) of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has the responsibility for conduct of the Systematic Eval-uation Program (SEP) in an effort to determine the safety margins of the design and operation of the eleven oldest operating commercial nuclear power plants in the United States. These eleven plants are being reevaluated in terms of present NRC licensing requirements and regulations. The,SEP program as well is to:

establish documentation which, shows how these operating plants

'compare with current acceptance criteria and guidelines safety issues, and provide a technical rationale on'ignificant for acceptable departures from these criteria and guidelines; provide the capability for making integrated and balanced decisions with respect to any required backfitting; and provide for the early identification and resolution of any potential safety deficiency.

The SEP Program is evaluating specific safety topics (called the Topic List) and is based on an integrated review of the overall ability of a plant to respond to certain design basis events (challenges), including normal operation, transients and postulated accidents. The evaluation will result in a reassessment of the overall safety margins for each facility and documentation of the reassessment on the basis of current criteria.

In this report the operating experience of the Ginna nuclear power plant fs reviewed for the purpose of compiling and interpreting data on plant opera-C tional occurrences and events for application and input to the SEP Program.

The results of this report will be used by SEPB in performing the integrated assessment of overall plant safety for this'lant.

1-2 The review approach with respect to operational events (forced shutdowns and reportable occurrences) consists primarily of a three-step process:

1) compile information on the events, 2) screen the events for significance using selected criteria and guidelines, and 3) evaluate the significance and importance of the events from a safety standpoint. Trends in equipment failures and events where systems failed to perform their intended function are identified.

Other types of operating information as noted in the "scope of the review" section is compiled ro provide an overall view of the plants'perating histories.

1. SCOPE OF REVIEW The assessment of the operating experience review for Ginna covered the time from initial criticality through and including 1979. The review included the following aspects of operation: availability and capacity factors; review of forced shutdowns and power reductions; reportable events; events of environmental importance and radioactivity releases; an evaluation of the operating experience in total.

1.1 Availabilit and Ca acit Factors Both reactor availability and unit availability factors were compiled for all years. Starting with 1974, the unit capacity factors using the design electrical rating (DER - net MWe) and the maximum dependable capacity (MDC net MWe) were compiled as well. Data for the capacity factors was not available from earlier years.

The two availability and two capacity factors are defined as follows:

1. Reactor availability ~

hours reactor critical + reactor reserve shutdown hours x lpO period hours

1-3

2. Unit availability ~

,hours enerator on-line + unit reserve shutdown hours 1OO period hours

3. Unit capacity (DER) ~

net electrical en'er enerated x lpp period hours x DER

4. Unit capacity (MDC) ~

net electrical ener enerated ~ happ period hours x MDC net 1.2 Review of Forced Shutdowns and Power Reductions The forced shutdowns and power reductions were reviewed,and data collected on each incident. Scheduled shutdowns for refueling and maintenance were not included in the review. However, if a utility had a refueling outage scheduled, the plant experienced a shutdown as a result of an abnormal event prior to the I

scheduled refueling, the uti1ity reported that the refueling.was being resched>>

P uled to coincide with the current shutdown, and the utility reported the cause of the shutdown as refueling, then this shutdown was considered as forced.

Only that portion of the outage time concerned with the abnormal event, not the refueling time, was included in the compilations.

The power reductions were included to provide information and details that may have been associated with a previous or subsequent shutdown. The power reductions are included in the proper chronological sequence with the shutdowns in the data tables for the forced shutdowns and power reductions (see Appendices).

The following data was compiled annually for the forced. shutdowns and power reduction:

1. date of occurrence;
2. duration in hours; I
3. noting if the shutdowns were al'so a reportable event, e.g., a licensee event report (LER) or abnormal occurrence report (AOR);
4. a summary description of the events associated with the shutdown or power reduction;
5. cause of the shutdown (Table 1.1);
6. method of shutdown (Table 1.1);
7. the system directly involved with the shutdown or power reduction (Table 1.2);

8. the component"directly involved with the shutdown or power reduction (Table 1.3); and
9. categorization of the shutdown or power reduction. Each shutdown or powex reduction was placed into one of two sets of categories. The shut'downs and power xeductions were first evaluated against design bases events (DBE) as described in Chap. 15 of the Standard Review, Plan.~ If the shutdown or power reduction could not be categorized as a DBE initiating event, then it was placed into one of a series of NSIC categories. For further discussions of these two sets of categories, use of the categories, and a listing of them, see Sect. 3.1 .and following.

The listings for the cause, shutdown method, system involved,. and component involved along with their respective codes axe those used in NRC's Gray Book sexies for shutdowns. Note that the information listed under the "system involved" column in the data tables in the appendices indicates (1) a general classification of systems (fully written out) and (2) a specific system within the genera1 classification which is coded with two letters.

1.3 Review of Re ortable Events The operating events as repoxted in LERs and LER predecessors, e.g., AORs unusual event reports, reportable occurrences (ROs), were reviewed.

These types of reportable events were retrieved from the NSIC computer file.

Approximately five years ago, operating experience information for oper-ating nuclear power plants in the NSIC file for the time period predating LERs

1-12 was reviewed. Any documents that contained LER-type information (equipment failure, abnormal event, etc.) were coded or indexed so that they could be xetrieved in the same manner as an LER. Primarily, this involved various types of operating reports and general correspondence for the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The following information was recorded for each reportable event reviewed:

1. an LEE report number or other means of identification of report type;
2. NSIC accession number (a unique identification number assigned to each document entered into the HSIC computer file);
3. date of the event;
4. date of the report or letter transmitting the event description; 5., status of the plant at the time of the occurrence (Table 1.4);
6. system involved with the reportable event (Table 1.4)';
7. type of equipment involved with the reportable event (Table 1.5);
8. type of instrument involved with the reportable event (Table 1.5);
9. status of the component (equipment) at the time of the occurrence (Table
1. 6);
10. abnorma3. condition associated with the reportable event, e.g., corrosion, vibration, leak, etc. (Table 1.6);
11. cause of the event (Table 1.6); .and
12. significance of the reportable event. Each reportable event was screened using criteria as a step in the evaluation process (See Sect. 3.2 and following for fuxther discussion of the criteria, the use of the criteria, and a listing of the criteria.)

1-16 1.4 Events of Environmenta1 Importance and Radioactivi Releases Based upon reviewing fo'reed shutdowns, power reductions, reportable events (environmental LERs), and operating reports, any significant or recur-ring environmental problems were summarized.

The routine radioactivity releases were tabulated. as well, and releases where limits were exceeded were reviewed and discussed.

1.5 Evaluation of cretin Experience Based upon the review involving screening, categorizing, and compiling data, the operating history of the plant was evaluated. Judgments and conclusions were made regarding safety problems, operations, trends (recur-ring problems), or potential safety concerns.

From the information provided through the various operating reports and the review process, events were analyzed to determine their safety significance, using the final safety analysis report to provide specific plant and equip-ment details when necessary.

2. SOURCES OF INFORMATION UTILIZED IN THE REVIEW Several sources of information aad periodic (annual, quarterly, and, monthly), NRC publications were used in the review. Some sources contained information relative to more than one area within the scope of the review.

2.1 Availabilit and Ca acit Factors The availability and capacity factors were either extracted or calculated from data given in the Gray Books from 1974 through 1979 (the first Gray Book was issued ia May 1974) . Prior to 1974,.the aanual or semiannual reports were used to compile the availability factors only.

2.2 Forced Reactor Shutdowns and Power Reductions The review of the forced power'eductions involved checkiag the following sources for completeness of details and'ccuracy:

1. Nuclear Pauer Plant Opera'.ing Experience for 19', for the years 1973, 1974-75, 1976, 1977, aad 1978 (Refs. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7). The report for 1979 has not been published. However, since the work on the section of these reports on outages has been perfoxmed by NSIC since 1973, the draft copy of this report for 1979 was available;
2. The Gray Book - NUREG-0020 Series;
3. Annual ox semiannual reports from the time of startup thxough 1977. For 1977 through 1979, monthly operating reports were used because the utilities were no longer required to file annuals. The review of power reductions involved primaxily the annuals, semiannuals, aad monthly reports.

2-2 2.3 Re ortable Events The NSIC computer file of LERs was the primary source of information in reviewing the reportable events. The material on the NSIC computer file consists of the appropriate bibliographic material, title, 100-word abstract, and keywords. When it was necessary to obtain additional information on the event, the original LER (or equivalent) was consulted by (1) examining those full-size copies on file at NSIC (for the years 1976 through 1979); (2) the microfiche file of docket material at NSIC or (3) the appropriate operating report (semiannual, annual; or monthly report).

2.4 Environmental Events and Radioactivit Releases i Events of environmental importance were obtained as a result of con-ducting the overall review of the plant's operating history, and the sources of information involve all types of documents listed thus far.

The data for radioactivity releases were compiled primarily from the report Radioactive MateriaEs ReEeased from NucEear P~er PEants AnnuaE Report 2977, NUREG-0521. This report presents year-by-year comparisons for plants in a number of different categories (solid, gas, liquid, noble gas, tritium, etc.). The data for 1978 was taken from the report Radioactive MateriaEs ReEeased from NucEear Power Plants - Annual Report 2878, NUREG/CR-1497, which was published in March 1981. The data for 1979 was compiled from the annual environmental reports submitted by the licensees.

2.5 Use of Co uter Files on RECON and S ecial Publications Two computer files on RECON (a computer retrieval system containing <35 data bases operated at ORNL) were used extensively for another purpose in

2-3 addition to those indicated thus far. Printouts were obtained from the files I

fox Ginna to provide coverage on other types of "docket material" besides reportable events where the licensee may have been in correspondence with NRC [or the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC)] concerning a particular, event. Licensees are often requested to submit additional information or perform further analysis. Before the LERs came into existence in the mid-1970's, it was not unusual for licensees to submit on their own or at NRC (AEC's) request more than one letter transmitting information on a particular event.

Thus these printouts provided additional sources of information on reportable events.

Several special publications were xeviewed to provide details on events of significance. Events described in the following publications often con-tained details, evaluations, or- assessments other than those provided in the reportable event (or shutdown) as a result of furthex analyses and examination:

1. Reports to Congress on Abnozmal Occurrences, NUREG-0020 series;
2. "Power Reactor Event Series" (formerly Current Event Series) published by NRC;
3. "Operating Experience Section" of the A'ucEecu Safety journal; and
4. NRC's Office of Inspection and Enforcement's (IGE) publications
a. Operating Experience Bulletins 1
b. IE Bulletins
c. IE Circulars
d. IE Infoxmation Notices
3. CRITERIA AND CATEGORIZATION FOR THE EVALUATIONS OF THE OPERATING HISTORY In reviewing the opera"ing history of the plant of interest, the two areas focused on were forced shutdowns (and power reductions) and reportable events. Given the large number of both shutdowns and reportable events, it was necessary to develop consistent review procedures that involved screening and categorizing of both occurrences. Following screening and categorization, the study then assessed the safety significance of events and analyzed the categories of events for various trends and recurring problems.

The shutdowns were evaluated against the design basis events (DBE's) as set forth in Chap. 15 of the SRP. The DBE's are those postulated diseur-bances in process variables or postulated malfunctions or failures of equip-ment for which the plants are to be designed to withstand and for which the licensees are expected to analyze and include in safety analysis reports (SAR). In the SAR, the effects of anticipated process disturbances and post-ulated component failures are to be examined to determine their consequences and to evaluate the capability built into the plant to control or accomodate such failures and situations (or .to identify the limitations of expected performance).

The intent is to organize the transients and accidents considered by the licensee and presented in the SAR in a manner that will:

l. Ensure that a sufficiently broad spectrum of initiating events has been considered,
2. Categorize the initiating events by type and expected frequency of occurrence so that only the limiting cases in each group need to be quanti-tatively analyzed, and

3-2

3. permit the consistent application of specific acceptance criteria for each postulated initiating event.

Each postulated initiating event is to be assigned to one of the following categories:

l. Increase in heat removal by the secondary system (turbine plant),
2. Decrease in heat removal by the secondary system (turbine plant),
3. Decrease in reactor coolant system flow rate,
4. Reactivity and power distribution anomalies, 5.'ncrease in reactor coolant inventory,
6. Decrease in reactor coolant inventory,
7. Radioactive release from a subsystem or component, or.
8. Anticipated transients without scram.

Typical initiating events that are representative of those that are to be considered by the licensee in the SAR are presented in Table 3.1 Those shutdowns identified as DBE initiating events were categorized as such. If the shutdown was not a DBE, then it was assigned a category from a list developed by NSIC to indicate the nature and type of error or failure. The NSIC categories for non-DBE shutdowns were examined as part, of a trends analysis.

The reportable events were screened using the criteria presented in,.

Sect. 3.2, (and following) and.were categorized according'to their significance.

The information collected on the reportable events (as outlined in Tables 1.4 through 1.6) was used to analyze trends for all reportable events those identified as significant or non-significant.

3-5 The review approach with respect to operational events (forced shut-downs and 'reportable occuziences) consisted primarily of a three-seep process:

1) compile information on the events, 2) screen the events for significance using selected criteria and guidelines, and 3) evaluate the'ignificance and importance of the events from a safety standpoint. The evaluations were to determine those areas where safety problems existed in terms of systems, equipment, procedures, and human error.

The reviewers worked semiindependently (brief exchanges of ideas and information) and then were brought together periodically for discussion and final resolution as to how events were to be categorized and how the criteria were to be used consistently.

3.1 Si ificant Shutdowns and Power Reductions For the purpose of compiling information and for evaluation, the power reductions were treated in the same manner as the forced shutdowns.

3.1.1 Cziteria for si ificant shutdowns and ower reductions As indicated previously, the occurrences identified as design basis events were used as criteria to categorize and note significant shutdowns.

These events are li,sted in Table 3. 1 as they are found in SRP Chap. 15.

3'1.2 Use of criteria for dete'zminin si ificant shutdowns and ower reductions The generic DBE initiating event types, e.g., "increase in heat removal by the secondary system" or "decrease in reactor coolant system," were used as primary flags for. reviewing the forced shutdowns (and power reductions).

Once the genezic type of event was identified, the particular initiating event was determined from the details associated with the shutdown. For example, if the reactor shuts down because of an increase in heat removal

3-6 due to a feedwater regulator valve failing open, the shutdown is a DBE generic type 1 event. Specifically, based upon the initiating event (valve failed open), it is a 1.2 DBE - feedwater system malfunction that results in an

'increase in feedwater flow. Some shutdowns were readily identifiable as specific DBE's, such as tripping of a main coolant pump - a 3.1 DBE.

Once categorized as a DBE," the shutdown was considered significant regardless of the resulting effect on the plant (because a design basis event had been initiated).

Loss of flow from one feedwater loop was considered sufficient to qualify as a 2.7 DBE - loss of normal feedwater flow. The closure of a main steam isolation valve in one loop was considered sufficient to qualify as a 2.4 DBE - inadvertent closures of main steam isolation valves.

3.1.3 Non-DBE shutdown and ower reduction cate orization Those non-DBE shutdowns were assigned NSEC categories (Table 3.2) to provide more information on the failure or error associated with the shut-down. With these categories, more specific types of errors and failures could be examined through tabular summaries to focus the reviewer's attention on problem areas (safety-related or not) that were not revealed by the DBE categories .

The causes for non-DBE shutdowns taken from the Gray Book (listed in Table 1.1) are limited and very general, while NSIC cause categories

3-9 are more specific. Thus, as an ex~le, the number of Gray Book- causes noted as eqixLpment failure should" not be expected to equal those identified as.

equipment failures with the NSIC categories. Other NSEC categories, such as component failure; co'uld be classified as an equipment failure if the. only available designations for cause were those listed in the Gray'. Book.

3.2 Si ificant Re ortable Events 3';2.1 Criteria for si ificant re ortable events Two groups of criteria were used in determining significant reportable events. The first=set of criteria (Table 3.3) indicates those events that are'definitely'significant in terms of safety and are termed significant.

Those criteria in'Table 3.4 indicate events that may be of potential con-cern. These events,which. might require additional information or evaluation to determine their full implication, were noted as conditionally significant.

3.2.2 Use of criteria for determinin si ificant re ortable events The reportable events were all reviewed applying the two sets of criteria for significance rather liberally. A number of significant events and conditionally significant events were noted. The events initially identified as significant ox conditionally significant were ana1yzed and evaluated further based upon (1) engineering )udgment; (2) the systems equipment, or components involved; or (3) whether the safety of the plant was compromised. The final evaluation for significance considered whether a DBE was initiated or whether a safety function was compromised such that the system could not mitigate the propagation of events for which it was designed. Thus, the number of events categorized finally as significant was reduced considerably by these steps in the review process.

4. OPERATING EXPERIENCE REVIEW OF GINNA 4.1 Summa of 0 erational Events of Safet Importance" P

The operational history.. of Ginna has been reviewed to indicate those g

areas of plant opexation that compromised plant safety.. The revie~ included a detailed examination o'f pl'ant shutdowns, power reductions, reportable events, and 'events of special environmental importance. The criteria used to show degradations in plant-safety were (I) events that initiated a DBE

'I and (2) events that compromised safety functions designed to mitigate the propagation of the initiating events.

Shutdowns and power reductions indicated the number and types of DBEs entered. The repoxtable events and special environmental events indicated the number of times each engineexed safety function was compromised. The results of the analyses.ideritified 23 DBE's entered. -Additionally, events were identified where loss of safety system function occurred in some engineered safety features.

0 4-2 4,2 General Plant Descri tion R. E. Ginna Nuclear Station is a Westinghouse pressurized water reactor (PWR) of 470-MWe net maximum dependable capacity, owned by Rochester Gas &

Electric Corporation (RGE) and located in Ontario, New York. The Architect/

Engineer was Gilbert Associates, and the constructor was Bechtel. The con-denser cooling method is once-through,'nd Lake Ontario is the condenser coo&a'g water source. The Plant is subject to license DPR-18, issued September 19, 1969, pursuant to Docket Number 50-244. The date of initial reactor criticality was November 9, 1969, and commercial generation of power began July 1, 1970.

The nearest city is Rochester, New York, 17 miles away. The population within 30 miles is 840,000 and within 50 miles, 1,200,000.

'4.3-Availabilit "and Ca acit Factors Table 4.1 contains Ginna's availability and capacity factors. The rated net power was boosted from 420 to- 470 K<e on March 3, 1972, to moie fully utilize the installed generating capacity. From mid '1972 .until mid 1973 there was a xegulatoxy limit of 1266 MWt (83% of design value of 1520 MWt). The reactor availability from 1970 through 1979 stayed above 70% except for 2 years, 1974 and 1976, when major outages were necessary for repairs (see Sect. 4.4).

The ten full years of operation, 1970 through 197$ , averaged 78.1% reactor availability and 74.6% plant availability. Capacity factors were not avail-able prior to 1975. The. Ma C and DER capacity factors from 1975 through 1979 averaged 69.5 and 68;5%,, xespectively.

4.4 Review of Reactor Shutdowns and Power Reductions Table A.l provides a comprehensive summary of information concerning shutdowns and power reductions at Ginna. Some information is still missing (denoted by blanks), however, and some was assumed (denoted by "A/"). More complete information was provided when events generated reports; in such instances, more detailed descriptions are in Sect. 4.5.

Tables 4.2 and 4.3 of forced shutdowns and power. reductions summarize Table A.l. Causes of forced shutdowns, item l.3 in Table 4.2 and item 'Z.2 in Table 4.3, are dominated at Ginna by equipment'failures. Shut-

\

downs reported to be caused by operator errors amount to only 10K of the total, and no power reductions are attributed to operator error. More than one system is often involved in a shutdown or power.'eduction and in some cases the cause of the shutdown is not ascertainable. Therefore, the totals for cause, shutdown method, and system in Tables 4.2 and 4.3 are not compar-able.

4-8 4.4.1 DSE Initiatin Events Of the 118 total forced shutdowns and power reductions accumulated at 23 fell into DBE initiating event categories as shown in Table 4.4.

None of these events initiated any sequence that led to any significant economic loss or safety hazard to the plant or the environs.

The categorized events were dominated by control rod malfunctions, steam generator tube leaks, and spurious closures of the main steam isolation valves (MSIVs). Seven of the eight control rod malfunctions generated individual reports (the exception is the first one, July 5, 1971), as did all five steam generator tube failures and one HSIV spuxious closure (June 23, 1975}. Control rod failures and steam generator tube failures are thoroughly discussed as recurring reportable events in Sect. 4.5.2.

The only turbine trip that caused shutdown occurred on January 27,'1970 because of "the loss of the electro-hydraulic (EH) governor pump pressure."

The only loss-of-offsite-power event occurred on October 21, 1973, and is described in detail in .Sect. 4.5.1.

All three loss-of-normal-feedwater events occurred within 2 months of each other on July 11 and 13 and September 5, 1971. The two in July most likely are related (instrument bus, 81 inverter failures), but not enough information is given in the semiannual report to be conclusive. The September event occurred when the containment ventilation was reset causing the feedwater valves to close by mistake.~

4-10 Note that the trend of total number of DBEs per year bears no correlation with other trends, such as plant performance as measured by total number .of shutdowns per year or total downtime pex year.

4.4.2 Trends and safet implications of shutdowns and ower reductions Over the moxa than 10 years of operation at Ginna, forced downtime averaged nearly 40 d/year. Annual downtime was dominated by single, large events such as the 114-d shutdown in 1974 to overhaul the /f2 low-pressure turbine. Total annual'hours of forced down-time followed no trend. Years 1970, 1974, 1976, and 1979 each recorded more than 1100 h forced out of service; the other 6 years each. recorded less than 450 h forced out of service.

Pour out of every five. forced shutdowns were caused by equipment, failures.

Operator exrors that were reported to have caused shutdowns fell from five in the 2 months in 1969 and foux in the first full year of operation (1970) to one in 1972 and none thereafter. Some fine tuning of the feedwater system and its controls made it easier to operate after,'970,. a year in.

which all four operator-error shutdowns were because of feedwater regulation problems. Today, the general availability and use of simulators helps alleviate this problem.

All of the 118 forced shutdowns that did not fall intoSBE categories were put in NSIC categories + (see Sect. 3.1.1). Tn NSIC event categories, leaks curtailed operations most often, with 31 shutdowns caused by leaks in the secondary system and 14 caused by leaks in the primary system. Thirty eight 12/15/69, 12/30/69 (2),

  • Except eight forced shutdowns [12/6/69, 12/14/69,sufficiently to enable 1/3/70, 1/4/72, and 7/28/72] that were not documented categorization.

4-11 equipment failures- in normal operation (equipment other, than instruments .

and controls) forced. shutdowns or power reductions.. The third major type

.of NSXC event was instrumentation and control anomalies, with 31 leading to shutdowns or forced reductions. 'I No fuel/cladding failures required shutdowns or foxced reductions, and no environmental operating constraints curtailed operations either. Nine events had an undetermined category.

~ ~ . r Causes of the forced reductions in,reactor power were evenly split

~ ~ ~ ~

between equipment failures and maintenance or testing restrictions. Forced L'

xeductions in power were reported only once at Ginna befoxe the fourth year of ooeration. After 1973 began, however, forced reductions were reported I

nearly five times per year. They usually lasted only a few hours, and seldom was power reduced more than 5QX. Power reductions under 30/ were if the P

included only associated failure had safety significance.

A discussion of shutdowns and power reductions for each year 1969 through 1979 follows.

1969 The Ginna PWR went critical at 0530 on November 9, 1969, and the genera-tor was first synchronized on December 2. Low-power physics testing in December showed excellent agreement between experimental and predicted values (Ref. 8, p. 2).

Operatox errors dominated the causes for forced outages, inducing 5 of the 11 recorded incidents (Table A.~,]. ). The steam and power system was involved nine times.

i

~ ~

4-12 Two shutdowns were caused by Technical Specification restrictions.

On December 16, safeguard valve 850B on the RHR pump suction line from the containment sump failed to open during a test. Both discs of this double-disk valve were bowed from internal pressure. When the RHR system is put in service, the water between the disks is. heated to about 285 0 7, creating a large internal pressure. (The valveis tested for 750 psig in this space.}

The recommendation was made that any double-disc valves that are closed during RHR operation be tested immediately after shutting down the system.

The other shutdown caused by a Technical Specification restriction occurred when the d'ischarge valve on the 1B motor-driven auxiliary .feedwater pump (AZWP) was "found to be inoperable" (Ref. 8, p. 17). No cause has been documented.

During the automatic scram on. December 3, one shutdown rod .(E-11) failed to drop. Exercise of the shutdown bank freed the rod. This situation did not occur again and is not considered safety significant.

Two, recurring problems first surfaced during this report period. A condenser hotwell problem was investigated on December 14, but no results were reported (Ref. 8, p. 17). Feedwater control problems caused eight forced shut-downs in the first 7 months of Ginna's operation. The first four shutdowns because of feedwater control problems occurred in this report period. On December 3, three shutdowns resulted from operator errors in aligning feed-I water valves. The shutdown on December 30 occurred in switching to the auxiliary feedwater. After June, 1970, manual control of the feedwater flow caused no problems; some fine tuning af the feedwater control system made it easier to operate.

I 4-13 1970 In 1970, the reactor and control system proved its capacity to operate under the most severe transient conditions: four automatic scrams from 100K power (420 MRe) occurred, and the plant responded as designed each time.

~

This year had 27 forced shutdowns (plus 1 power reduction), the most in the 10 years of operations at Ginna (Table 4.2). The shutdowns axe attxibuted partly to the operator's lack of familiarity with the new plant; ten of the 27 forced'hutdowns were caused by maintenance, testing, and operator errors.

Only 12 of these errors occurred over the following 9-year period (1971 through 1979). The remaining 17 shutdowns were caused by failures of new equipment.

Two lengthy shutdowns accounted for 80K of the forced downtime this year.

On May 4, the unit went down fox'4- d to repair the 82 low-pressuxe turbine blades (Table A.l.2). On September 30, the'nit went down for 14 d to repair, among othex things, a leak in a reactor coolant temperature detector.

One incident at the beginning of 1970, only 2 months after the initial criticality, exemplified the problems in maintenance and testing that plagued Qiana in its early years. Following a spurious safety in]ection signal on January 3, one train of the high-pressure coolant in]ection system did not operate. After dirty contacts on a relay were found and cleaned, a test signal activated the train. However, at this point, motor operator valve (MOV)-878B failed closed, thereby stopping the SI flow from entering the cold leg. After adjusting the valve's arms and, contacts, operators stroked it successfully seven times.

'I 11 The contxol rod step counters malfunctioned on January 17, requiring a manual shutdown. The ability to safely shut down the reactor was not compromised.

4-14 The first of six 'LLSIV failures over the 10 years of operation at Ginna occurred during the low-pressure turbine failure on May 14, when MS'-1B did not close on a manual signal from the control room. None of these failures compxomised the safety of the plant.

A recurring problem with the packing of the pressurizer spray valves first surfaced on May 2, at which time the reactor was shut down to repack these Valves. On July 5,'acking was added to pressurizer control valve (PCV)-431A, but design capability of these valves was never compromised.

The first of many shutdowns to repair'eaking pressurizer relief valves was required on July 12; others followed on November 15 and December 12.

12 These leaks never jeopardized the safe operation of Ginna.

Another pxoblem recurring over the life of the plant first occurred on January 27 when the-EH turbine governor lost pressure, causing the turbine to trip (this was an DBE Category 2.3 initiating event). The manual feed-water contxol was too slow in responding to the consequent steam generator leve1 transient, and the reactor scrammed on lo-lo steam generator level and E

was down for 25 min (Ref. 8, p. 18). On June 19, a manual turbine trip to repair the governor caused an unintentional reactor trip. During the September 6 shutdown, unspecified repairs on the EE governor control system were made.

None of the 12 EK governor-relate'd shutdowns over the life of Ginna compromised the safe operation of the plant.

Feedwater manual contxol problems and leaking condenser tubes continued to plague Ginna in 1970. Brief shutdowns caused by manual feedwater control errors occurred on January 27 (discussed previously) and 28, March 30, and

i 4-15 June 19. Condenser tubes were plugged during two shutdowns in December, at which time other necessary maintenance was concurrently accomplished.

1971 The number of forced outages dropped to 14 in 1971 (Table A.1.3); with no reported power reductions. The unit was generally base loaded at full load during this pex'iod, as it was thx'oughout the following years. Total forced downtime was only 169 h, second lowest in Qiana's history." On February 3 and November 12, the previously mentioned recurring problem with the packing in the pressurizer spxay valves occurred causing forced outages for repairs of 27.2 h total duration. The sexies of failures leading to a shutdown on June 30 is described in detail in Sect. 4.5.2. On July ll, the inverter on the 125-V dc connection to instrument bus Ol led .to an automatic scram. This problem surfaced'our more times in the period 1974 through 1976.

During the x'efueling outage commenced February 27, all,fuel'ssemblies were tested using the wet-dry sipping technique. Defective fuel was found in region 3.

1972 The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) granted permission to increase power from 1300 to 1520 NRt on March 1. The 1520-HWt level was reached on April 12.

This year saw- the least forced downtime in Ginna's history: 12 forced shutdowns for 87 h total (Table A.1.4), The EH tuzbine governor system caused shutdowns again on Pebruazy 24 and March 8. Shutdowns accounting for 287 of this year's total-downtime were necessary on March 20 and September.

5 to repair'acking on pressurizer spray valves. Malfunctions in the drive

4-16 and .logic supply power for the contxol rods'caused shutdowns on June 23 and July 27, respectively. A leak in the block valve downstream of the power-operated relief valve necessitated a shutdown on December 14; 1972.

Duxing the refueling outage commenced April 14, inspections found defective fuel: some rods were bowed, some were collapsed and some leaking.

Sixty-one new fuel assemblies replaced all of region 3, part of region 2, and 3 'assemblies in region l.

On June 24 the turbine generator returned to service using an interim set of conditions. The maximum nuclear power was not to exceed 1266 MWt (83/ of rated power). Other conditions.,required various tests to be performed at various power levels.

1973 Only five forced shutdowns occurred in 1973, Five power reductions also occurred, all for required maintenance (Table A.l.5).

A new problem surfaced on June 9 when the bearing shoes on the 1A main feedwater pump needed to be replaced. Power reductions were also necessary on August 19 and September 10 to repair the B main feedwater pump.

Tubes in the main condenser leaked again and caused a shutdown for repairs on January 12 and a 38K power reduction on March 9.

Further repairs on the turbine EH contxol system necessitated a 50K power reduction in November.

Two lengthy shutdowns occurred thi.s year; On July 22, an 8.5-d shut-down began to repair a disconnected flow transmitter on the B auxiliary feed-water pump control valve. The disconnection occurred during the only water-hammer event in Ginna's history severe enough to cause a shutdown. 13 In

4-17 October, Ginna experienced its sole loss-of-offsite-power event, described in detail in Sect. 4.5.1.

Ginna was restarted 6 d later.

1974 This year Ginna suffered the moat. forced downtime in its history. Of the total 3291 h out of sexvice, 83K'ere caused by a blade failuxe'.in the. same low-pressure turbine that caused a 5-week shutdown in May and June 1970. The maintenance overhaul began January 1 and ended April 25 (Table A.l.'6). Refuel-ing was completed during this outage.

Instrument bus inverters failed twice,. on April 27 and July 26, both causing a low steam generator level and low feedwater flow. The same event happened in July 1971.

A repair was attempted on June 29 to stop a leak on a charging pump filter vent line. After the 43-h repair, the reactor was restarted. It was shut down 14 h later; and the repair gob was redone correctly.

The 1A main feedwater pump impeller failed on May 20, forcing a power reduction. This was the fifth power reduction or shutdown caused by mechanical failure of a main feedwater pump.

On November 2, the reactor was manually shut down to begin an" inspection of the steam generator tubing. This inspection, lasting more than 11 d, was the first of seven outages forced by steam generator tube degradations or inspections. RG&E's practice throughout the life of Ginna has been to plug leaks in the steam generators and condenser as soon as they are observed as opposed to continuing operation with leakage. Though there had been no leakage at this time, two tubes were plugged.

0 The recurring pxoblem 'with the condenser tubes forced three power reductions of 52% in December. Freon checks of the 1B condenser tubes were made. Since changing the secondary chemistry from phosphate to all volatile treatment (AVT) during the last shutdown for steam generator tube inspection, condenser tube integrity problems have caused more frequent shutdowns. Whereas in the five years of operation previous to November 1974 in which Ginna has been shutdown five times for condenser tube inspections, plugging, and repairs, future years saw an average of three shutdowns per year because of condenser tube problems. Ho~ever, no technical evidence has been documented to demonstrate this link.

1975 Condenser tube leaks continued to plague Ginna in 1975 (Table A.1.7).

Power- reductions .were necessary on July 30 and December 21 and 23 to do freon checks for leaks. On December 23, one leak was found in the B condenser.

Another familiar problem caused three shutdowns in May 1975. The EE turbine control sys'em malfunctioned and forced two shutdowns in May. The xeactor was taken down to repair the control system on May 31. Two more shutdowns were to occur because of this system in 1976.

The unit was at 95% power on June 17 when a reactor trip was caused by

'he loss of the IA inverter and the corresponding loss of the 1A instrument bus; The inverter failed. when the pulse drive printed circuit card failed.

1976 An unusually difficult year for Ginna was 1976. Twenty-six forced outages and power reductions were recorded, only two less than during 1970, the first full year of operation. Equipment failures accounted for 20

i 0

4-19 of these events. A total of 2026 h forced out of service this year was second only to 1974, when 2737 h were needed for one job alone the mainten-ance overhaul of the 82 low-pressure turbine; 36K of the downtime in 1976 was attributed to blade failures on the same turbine [January 29, July 29, and August 7 (Table A.1.8)]. Another large contributoX was steam 'generator tube leaks, accounting for 30/ of the forced downtime this year (continued from the December 30, 1975, outage and on April 24).

Three shutdowns wexe.caused by EH turbine control problems. On-April 18 water leaking into the oil from the oil cooler forced two shutdowns. On May 22 another fluid leak in the system forced another shutdown.

Other recurring problems affecting Ginna in 1976 were an instrument bus inverter failure on June 3 and a main feedwater pump impeller failure on September 10.', 46K power reduction for 1 week was necessary to. repair the main feedwater pump.

A total of ten condenser tubes were plugged during four forced outages.

Erosion from the bottom side of the tubes was caused by steam impingement from the steam dump lines located below the affected tubes (September 25 and December 11, 14, and 17).

1977 This year was the first of three successive years of few forced shutdowns and power xeductions and high unit availability. Only six forced shutdowns and three forced power reductions occurred in 1977 (Table A.1.9).

Condenser tube leaks forced two 50/ power reductions one in January and one in March. The recurring problem with steam generator tube leaks forced an 8-d shutdown beginning July 5 for inspections and repairs.

4-20 A new problem surfaced in 1977. Shaft seals on steam generator snuobers were found leaking. Inoperable snubbers forced shutdowns on August 2 and November 2.

1978 Pour forced shutdowns and -four forced power reductions occurred in 1978, totaling only 281 h down. A steam generator tube leak on January 25 accounted for 73K of this downtime (Table A.l.10}.

Other recurring problems were condensex'ube leaks (January ll and 14 and September 15) and packing leaks ar'ound the pressurizer spray and block valves (February 20) .

1979 Three forced shutdowns and seven forced power reductions occurred in 1979. Repairs beginning December 2 on a steam generator tube leak accounted for 38% of the total downtime this year (Table A.l.ll).

A gasket leak around, the B steam generator handhole forced brief power reductions on October 27 and Hovember 10 and.24.

Nearly a month was spent out of service starting July 6 because of an NRC requirement to inspect welds on the feedwater nozzles at the steam generators.

No condenser tube leaks caused shutdowns or power reductions in 1979; this problem may have been alleviated, although 1980 'data are necessary for confirmation. Note that of the 22 shutdowns caused by condenser tube leaks or degradation, 17 occurred after the switch to all volatile treatment (AVT) was made on Novembex 2, 1974. Similarly, all shutdowns caused by steam

4-21 generator tube degxadations occurred after. this switch.'owever, there is no conclusive technical evidence to link these events.

4.5 Review of Re ortable Events Appendix A.Z is a table of all reportable events at Ginna. A few pieces of information, usually dates, axe missing; blanks in Table A.2 indicate this.

Dashes indicate "not applicable." Occasionally reviewers were able to deduce facts from the sketchy reports; these. assumptions are denoted "A/." Shen the reportable event involved a forced shutdown, it is denoted in the "comment" column by the words "reactor shutdown." These events, then, appear in the shutdown Table A.l as well.

Of the 23 D>E -related shutdowns in Table A.l, 14 generated reports and thus appear in Table A.2 also. Of these, seven involved control rod malfunc-tions, five involved steam generator tube leaks, one loss of offsite power, and one spurious closuxe of the MSZVs. These are of varying degrees of significance, so the overlap between Tables A.l and A.2 does not in itself indicate particularly significant events.

Prom the plant startup in November 1969 through 1973, events were simply reported in letters to the AEC Directorate of Licensing and, fox the purposes of Table A.2, are numbered chronologically. Starting in 1974 the events wexe reported as "Abnormal Occurrences" labeled chronologically with an "AO" pre-Qx. Xn 1975, events were repoxted as "Unusual Events" (UEs) and "Reportable Occurrences" (ROs) as well as Abnormal Events. Tn 1976 and 1977, events wex'e reported as ROs only. Ginna began reporting events as Licensee Event Reports in 1978, and the other designations were dropped.

4-22 The reporting pattern over the life of Ginna is shown in Figure 4.1, with the trend toward more reported events. The years 1970 through 1973 averaged 10 reported events per year whereas. the years 1974 through 1979 averaged over 23 per year. The recurring failures discussed in Sect.

4.5.2.2.1 contribute to this trend. But even if these recurring failures are subtracted from the total number of reported events, the upward trend is still marked. (The year 1978 set capacity factor records and, thus, is below this trend.)

4.5.1 Si ificant events at Ginna As the initial step is identifying significant, events among Ginna's reported events, the reported events were screened by the significance categories listed in Section 3.2. The events meeting at least one of the significance criteria in the first step were reviewed relative to either (1)'he initiation of a DBE from Gi'nna's FSAR Chapter 14 (listed in Table 4.5), or (2) the compromise of a safety function design to mitigate one or more of the DBEs.

The events identified from this review were termed significant.

Two significant events, summarized in Table 4.6 resulted from the review i'f Ginna's reportable events.

These events were:

1) loss of offsite power, and
2) MSIVs closure.

i 4-26 The total number of significant events, tallied in the bottom row in Table 4.6, does not equal the total in the far right column because two events, 71-02 and 73&9, required multiple significance categories.

4.5.1.1 Loss of offsite ower leads to excessive cooldown rate. On October 21, 1973, the reactor was at 91X power, with one of four 115-kV transmission circuits'out of service because of construction. Auxiliary power was provided from the station switchyard and an external 34.5 kV line. A second 115-kV line, sagging from the increased load, flashed over to an underbuilt 34.5 kV line, and its circuit opened. The consequent 230-MRe power swing on the remaining two 115-kV lines caused them both to trip, resulting in complete loss of generator output abi3.ity. The loss of all 115-kV transmission lines overloaded a supply circuit'or the remaining auxiliary power source, causing it to trip and resulting in a total loss of offsite power plus a turbine trip and a reactor trip (Fig. 4.2).

According to an RGE letter on October 23, 1973, to the AEC Directorate of Regulatory Operations, Region 1 (NSIC 87031), disturbances on the instru-ment buses generated a double low level in both steam generators wnich started the steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump. This injected cold water into the steam generators and caused a rapid cooldown of the reactor coolant system (RCS) (an 85'F drop in the cold leg in 10 min, see NSZC 85369) which exc'ceded the Technical Specification limit. (TS 3.1.2.1.b states "for temperature above an indicated temperature of 290'F the [cooldown] rate shall not exceed 1QO'F/hr.") The rapid cooldown lowered the RCS pressure, and Sl was automatically initiated on low. pressure/low level in the pressurizer.

4-28 At this point, RGE's letter of October 31, 1973 (NSIC 85370), picks up the sequence of events: power was lost for 38 s to instrument bus lA, causing a premature transfer of the SI pump suction from the boric acid storage tanks to the refueling water storage tank. Operator error was suspected, but no malfunction was found. The concentrated boric acid was not necessary for maintaining subcriticality, and no core damage occurred.

4.5.1.2 Both MSIVs close s uriousl . On June 23, 1975, the unit was operating at 88% of full power when a reactor trip occurred caused by a double low level in the "B" steam generator. The "A" and "B" main steam isolation valves had failed closed. The steam flow impinged on the leading. edge of the MSIV's disks and forced the valves closed. This was a common cause failure.

The same event had occurred 17 d earlier (June 6, 1975) and caused a shutdown (see Appends< A.l), but no failure cause was found at that time and no report was made, After the June 23, 1975, event, the rubber piston seat in the MSIV actuators was removed to increase the piston stroke, and 1 in. of metal was removed from the valve disk stops to permit positioning of the disk's leading edge out of the steam flow path. This event was mitigated without incident both times.

4.5.1.3 Conditionall Si ificant Events of Im ortance. The following two conditionally significant events are described in further detail because they represent partial loss of important safety system functions.

4.5.1.3.1 Safet in ection train B fails to actuate on demand.

~

Pour failures occurred after. an accidental SI signal on January 3, 1970. The reactor was operating at less than 1X thermal power, and repair personnel were calibrating one of six pressure transmitters associated with the safety injection logic system when the accidental signal was given. The reactor scrammed as designed,

4<<29 but the B SI train did not respond. A rel'ay failed in the open position.

After relay contacts were. cleaned,

~ s '

.the~ ~

~

train actuated properly. The second and third failures in this event were malfunctions of two -different position-indicators on isolation valves inside containment. Finally, the motor-operated valve on the. 2-in. SI line to the B cold leg inside containment did not operate because of an open limit switch contact. -This event was

,flagged S3 because the four failures constituted a breach of the second line of assurance: the B SI t'rain failures reduced. the capability to miti-gate loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) as analyzed in FSAR Chap. 14.3.

4.5.1.3.2 Loss of concentrated boric acid in ection ca abilit . On April 27, 1971, two concurrent tests turned up a design error that was not detectable by standard tests. A safety injection signal was given during a simulated station blackout. These two conditions were not normally tested concurrently. Shen station blackout occurs, the voltage is momentarily lost on all 480-V safeguard buses (Nos. 14, 16, 17, 18). Instrument bus 1B (1 of 4) is tied to 480-V bus 14 [with a backup supply from the main lighting panel (see FSAR p. 8.2-5 and Figure 8.2-5)]. Instrument bus 1B feeds the concentrated boric acid tank .level channels LC 102 and LC 172, (NSIC 66927, RO-71-02). Therefore, when the 1B bus voltage was lost, a downscale indica-tion was shown on LC 102 and LC 172. Low-level indication from these two channels actuates an interlock which prevents the concentrated boxic acid

\

tank outlet valves (826A, B, C, and D in FSAR Figure 6.2-1) from openingy thereby preventing all direct flow from the chemical volume control system (CVCS) concentrated boric acid. tanks to the suction of the SI pumps. The power supply for LC 102 and LC 172 was changed to a battery-supplied uninterrupt'ed bus.

'-30 The design purpose of the concentrated boric acid injection system is to provide protection from a main steam pipe break and potential return to criticality and power. During hot functional testing prior to initial

~

criticality, the fact that the momentary 1oss of bus 14 would cause this problem was not discovered because two different tests were involved.

4.5.2 Trends and safet im lications of re ortable events in addition to those cata prized as si ificant An overview of all the reportable events is given in Table 4.7. The system categories are those used in coding these events, and the number of times per 'year that a system is involved in a reported failure is tabulated.

The most frequently reported systems are high-pressure safety injection (HPSI) (24), main cooling. (23), chemical and volume control (19), reactor protection (16)., and emergency electric power (14). Fourteen of the twenty-four safety injection/HPSI failures were caused by recurring failures during start'up tests of the HPSI pumps .powered;by the emergency buses (detailed in Sect. 4.5.2.2.1). The CVCS failures did not begin occurring until 1974;

4-32 since then they have averaged over three pez year. Fourteen of the nineteen CX'CS failures involved cxacks in piping and associated welds, all apparently caused by vibrations of the charging pumps.

4.5.2.1'auses of reported events, Causes of th'e 183 reported events are shown in Table 4,8. Only one cause was attributed to each event.

Inherent failures account for 44% of 'all reported events. Roughly 50%

of these were equipment failures caused by age and normal wear, and the other 50% had undetermined causes, which means that nearly a quarter of a11 reported events had undetermined causes. These events with undetex-mined causes represent a significant part of the operating e~erience data base at Ginna and should not be simply ignored by labeling them "inherent failure" with cause unknown.

The 30 administrative errors were generally.attributed to inadequate ox nonexistent procedures oz training and inadequate records and adminis--

trative control. Note that preopexational errors, design and installation erxors, account fox'early 23% of reported events. Greater care taken during constxuction can significantly reduce failures during operation.

Also, note that failures attributed directly to operator exror were not reported until 1975 and then averaged 2.2 per yeaz thxu 1979. The LER reporting system formally implemented in 1975, introduced new cause categories for reporting purposes operator error was one of these. How-ever, all human errors administrative, design, fabzication, installation, maintenance, and operational accounted for 56% of the total number of zeported events. Each year'hey consistently accounted fox about one half I

of all events reported. No significant trend in the reporting of human-induced errors is found.

4-34 4.5.2.2 Trends in conditionall si ificant events. Though only two events in Ginna's life were labeled "significant," many events portended

\

problems that possibly could adversely affect the safe operation of the plant.

Eighty-four of these were 1abeled conditionally significant (C) and are summarized and discussed in Table 4.'9 and text that fo11ows. Two of these conditionally significant events were discussed earU.er in Sect. 4.5.1.3.

The thirteen C3 events offsite radiation releases are discussed sepa-rately in Sect. 4.6. The fifteen C4 events design, manufacturing, or installation deficiences, might have been prevented by diligently applied, routine quality assurance measures. The six CS events forced outages lasting longer than 10 d', a11 occurred in the second half of Ginn'a life.

Four were shutdowns to plug failed steam generator tubes (AO 75-07, RO 75-13, 76>>15, and 79-22). Both C6 events engineered safety feature (ESF) actuation, did not involve any loss of coolant; event 7i0-01 was an SI subsystem failure in a test, and event 70-01. called on the SX because of overcooling of the primary'ystem by the auxiliary feedwater in this loss-of-offsite-power incident.

The 34 C7 events recurring failures, are discussed in detail in Sect.

4.5.2.2.1. The 12 CS events other conditionally significant events, are discussed in Sect. 4.5.2.2.3 and 4.5.2.2.4.

4.5.2.2.1 Recurrin Failures C7. Failures recurring over the life of the-plant were labeled C7. Four problems are identified with a historical recurrent rate greater than or equal to 0.5 per year; and a fifth area, leaking snubber reservoirs (Table 4'.10) is included because of a recurrence rate of 1 per year for the last 3 years.

Cl 4-37 All ten of the SI pumps'ailures to start were caused by the emergency bus breaker problems discussed in Sect. 4,5.2.2.2.

Steam generator tube failures'ecame a problem in 1975 concurrent with-the switch to all volatile chemical contxol (system modification 74-45, started during shutdown November 2, 1974}; tube thinning and corrosion problems- have not yet been solved.

None of .the eight contxol rod drive mechanism (CRDM} malfunctions reported over Ginna's life compromised its safety function. Watez from a leaking fitting in a feedwater flow indicator entered the power cabinet and grounded out the control power, causing rods G-5 and G-9 to drop on June 23, 1972 (72-09); the cabinet was dried and the leaking fitting was replaced.

Rod G-5 did not move with 'its bank during a xod control system test in i.- 1975, though the rod drop was not impeded upon a had an open circuit, preventing tzip signal; the normal driving {UR75-08}. Then lift coil in April and July of 1976, rods G-5 and G-9 dropped: the alarm indication was a station-ary "A" regulation failure', but in both. instances no cause could be deter-mined and the rods tested normally. Based on similar instances at other Westinghouse facilities, certain electronic components in the zod control circuitry were replaced with upgraded components (76-13 and 76-18). In August of this year rods G-3 and G-11 partially dropped. into the core. This was the first occurrence with these two rods, but the fifth such occurrence associated with 'the 2BD power cabinet. Again, no abnormalities were found (76-21}. Polarity checks conducted in January, 1978, indicated that 27 movable coils and 2 lift coils, had polarity reversals, resulting in too short an interval between stationary coil mechanism latch-in and movable coil mechanism drop-out. Since these polarity reversals were corrected, Ginna has.had'o further rod drop problems,

4-38 Either of the two station diesel generators failed during tests only five times over Ginna's life; they never failed on demand. This failure rate of 0.25 per year per diesel is remarkably low.

Steam generator or main steam line snubbers were found with low or no reservoir level in 77-13, 78-06, and 79-20, Excessive seal leakage on these vibration-damping components had not yet been remedied.

Finally, note the trend over the years at Ginna of increasing numbers of xecurring failures. These five recurring failures over the period 1975 through 1979 occurred at a combined rate of over 5 per year. This fact focuses future maintenance efforts on recurring failures.

4.5.2.2.2 'Emer enc bus breaker failures. Breakers in three positions marked 1, 2, and 3 in Fig. 4.3 failed 14 times 'in Ginna's life during tests of safety injection pump "C" (see FSAR Fig. 8.2 fox details), as shown in Table 4.11.

Table 4.12 lists the 14 breaker failures between the diesel generator "B", buses 14 and 16, and HPSi pump "C".

From this series of failures, apparently the conservative design of three 50% HPSI pumps is partially nullified by the unreliability of the cir-cuit breakers. From 1973 through 1979, the three breakers failed an avexage of two tests per year. The HPSl pumps are tested monthly (TS 4.5.2.1) this is the relevant test for breaker position numbers 1 and 2. The diesel generators are started in a monthly test (TS 4.6.l.a) this is the relevant test for breaker position 3 only. The diesel generators are also tested with a simulated

4.5.2.2.3 Common cause failures. Table 4.13 lists ten common cause failures that were reported at Ginna. Two failures are considered significant events (71-02 and UE 75-03) and are described in detail in Sect. 4.5.1.

Two control rods dropped when water leaked into their shared cabinet on June 23, 1972, and again on March 5, 1975. That problem was solved by welding a leak-tight cover to that cabinet. Three common cause events (72-09, UE 75-01, and UE 75>>03) turned up during operations, and three common cause failures t

(78-06, 79-12, and 79-15) were identified during inspections. With the excep-tion of 71-2, discussed in Sect. 4.5.1, none of these common cause failures significantly affected the safety of the plant.

4.5.2.2.4 Other conditionall si ficant events. Twelve conditionally significant events, flagged C8, portended significant problems but did not qualify as S or C1-7 events.

4&4 Five of the CS events were common cause failures and were discussed in Sect. 4.5.2.2.3. Of the other seven, two similar events were reported in 69-02 and 74-06, both involving a failed valve in the 10-in. line between the containment sump and the residual heat removal pumps. On December 16, 1969, both disks of a valve were bowed outward from internal pressure caused by heatup of water trapped inside the valve by ambient reactor coolant water.

Similarly, on April 22, 1974, water trapped between two valves in the same line was heated, and the consequent pressure seated the valve so tightly that it would not open on a signal from the control room. Operating procedures should preclude this problem.

Qn June 30, 1971, when a thixd condensate pump was put in service, a series of failuxes occurred that led to a condensate line water hammer and a reactor scram (71-04). The safety of the plant and pubs.c was not endangered, but the event sequence deserves some attention. Increased condensate pump outlet pressure, resulting from the added condensate pump, caused the hydrogen cooler temperature control valve superstructuxe to buckle, and the valve failed closed. The hydrogen cooler temperature rose, and the normal condensate bypass valve consequently closed. This caused an emergency feed valve to open, supplying relatively cold condensate directly to the main feedwater pumps'MFA} suction, which induced severe vibrations in the MFA's suction line and tripped HFrP A. MFA B was tripped manually, tripping the turbine and then the reactor in the normal logic sequence. This is the only condensate line water hammer reported at Ginna.

4-45 On July 22 1973, a water hammer in the feedwater line to the B steam generator damaged several supports and insulation at'various".locations the line (73-06). Failure of a small pin which prevents rotation 'long of the control plug on the B feedwater control valve caused the control plug to separate from the threaded stem of the valve, inducing rapid flow variations, causing the water hammer. According to a RG&E letter to the AEC Directorate of Licensing dated August 21, 1973, the valve manufacture was consulted and subsequent investigation revealed that the original stem on the B feedwater control valve had been damaged during construction.

A replacement stem had been installed, but the recommended torquing pro-cedure had not been followed during reassembly of the new plug on the stem.

Had the plug been torqued properly, the holding pin would not have failed.

RG&E has since stated that a design change has been made in this valve operator.

On June 26, 1974, following maintenance on the main steam isolation valves, the four solenoids on each of the MSIVs were left in the energized position. During subsequent testing, five of the eight solenoids failed; but, after they were allowed to cool, they operated correctly. 'nadequate maintenance procedures were responsible for this failure (74-11).

Both discharge valves for one of three 50%-capacity SI pumps were found closed in a test on June 25, 1975 (AO 75-10). The recognized unre-liability of the HPSI emergency bus breakers (Sect. 4.5.2.2.2) makes this operator error more significant.

The administrative oversight reported in UEK 75-06 is significant because it represents.a deficiency in quality assurance procedures.

A modification was made in which a steam generator level signal input was transferred to a bus that was already part of the lo-lo steam generator level protection system and the reactor trip logic for steam flow-feedwater flow mismatch. On discovery of the error only hours later, the system was returned to its original configuration.

An actuator in a control room ventilation damper was originally installed incorrectly and was not discovered until March 8, 1976 (76-11).

Previous tests'ad assumed that actuators had been properly installed.

Proper tests verify functionability of a system and not gust its components.

4.6 Events of Environmental Importance A summary by year of the total radioactivity released from Ginna is shown in Table 4.14, organized by airborne and U.quid.effluents and by off-i site shipments of solid waste. Because of varying reporting requirements in 1969, 1970, and 1978, some data are not available. The 1979 data has not been published as of April 1981. An overall increase over 10 years is apparent in the activity released as airborne tritium and as airborne noble gases, with the notable exception of 1972 which had the largest releases of noble gases.

Note the spike of mixed fission and activation products released via the U.quid pathway in 1970. Approximately 88% of this ad<ed activity was discharged in March and April 1970 because of increased activity in the primary coolant leaking from the plunger leakoffs of the charging pumps.

Increased primary loop activity detected at 100X power in March was first evidence of leaky fuel. On March 25, during full power operation, and

4-48 again on April 24, during startup after a month-long scheduled maintenance outage, the maximum concentration of liquid released (2.4 E-07 uCi/cc, excluding tritium) exceeded the techni'cal specification limit of 1.0 E"07 pCi/cc but did not exceed the maximum permissible concentration (MPC) isotopic limits; isotopic analysis showed Iodine-131 to be the only isotope discharged at a concentration greater than one-tenth of its MPC. (This value for I-131 could not be found.) At no time did the concentration of tritium in the discharge canal exceed the technical specification limit of 3 E-03 pCi/cc.

Four radiation exposure incidents and nine offsite releases are sum-marized in Table 4.15. Thirteen of these appear in Table A.2, all marked C3.

One incident was reported in a letter to the AEC on June ll, 1971, in which two concurrent yet independent leaks were surmised to have exceeded technical specification release limits (71-03). Another incident was reported in a letter to the AEC on February 9, 1973: a maintenance error on the RCS letdown line caused a 47-h unplanned release of radioactive gases on June 10, 11, and 12, 1972 (72-07). Note that 1972 airborne noble gas releases (Table 4-14) were the highest ever at Ginna, exceeding 1971 and 1973 releases by over a factor of 100.

The four overexposures aU. resulted from administrative errors and lax health physics procedures. No equipment failures caused overe~osures.

Of the nine offsite releases, five occurred during operations and four P

during maintenance. The CVCS was involved in all but one of these incidents.

4-S 1 4.7 Evaluation of" eratin Experience Reactor availability at Ginna has been among the industry's highest, averaging 78.1% over the ten full years of operation. Equipment failures dominated the shutdowns, 1

accounting for 737 of the total causes; however, equipment failures accounted for only 44X of the'licensee event reports and their predecessors (hereafter referred to as zeportable events), a difference that vill be discussed in more detail in this section.

Whexeas trends in shutdowns and power reductions generally followed trends 'in reactor ave.ability, reportable events had two distinct phases (Fig. 4.1). Through 1973, reportable events were generated consistently at a rate of about ten per year; then, in 1974, these rates doubled and averaged about 25 pez year through 1979. The exceptional year, 1978, with only nine reportable events, set the record for capacity factor at 78.27.. This is the only reason found for the low number of reportable events in 1978.

Tvo points of view provided by the analysis of shutdowns and power reduc-tions and of the reportable events complement one another'n assessing the operational history of the plant. The analysis of the shutdowns is most use-ful in identifying accident sequences, whereas the analysis of xepoztable events is most useful in providing specific information and in identifying specific failures tuithin accident sequences. The distinction arises from the

4-52 fact that the plant is designed to shut down nlhenevez an unsafe operating condition exists, such as when an P

- accident sequence has been initiated; whereas an event report is generated to fulfilla specific technical specifica-tion requirement, such as a limit bounding the accident sequence or a com-ponent failure that limit the plant's capability to respond to an accident sequence. Reportable events tend to be more component oriented, identifying single events or occurrences. Whereas Ginna has ezperie'aced 118 shutdowns, reportable events totaled 181 ~ Reportable events cover a wider range of events, including causes not categorized in the shutdown tables (such as test-induced failures during a shutdown and all design and fabrication errors).

Reportable events cover all actual failures, including releases, ma)or outages and ma5or damages, and all SIs, plus potential failures identified through operations or reanalyses with impact on plant safety. Nearly one in four reportable events had undetermined causes (Sect. 4.5.2.1).

Conclusions about the overall operational safety of the plant do not vary when taken from shutdowns and from reportable events. Safety significant events consistently are identified in both ways. The two points of view are complementary in individual cases. For e~mple, the MSIV spurious closures were reported by shutdowns on both June 6 and 23, 1975, but only by reportable event on the latter date, when the cause was surmised and corrective action was taken. For review purposes, the complementary aspects of the two points of view are apparent from the interwoven nature of Sects. 4.4 and 4.5 on shut-downs and reportable events, respectively.

4-53 One result of the reportable events different from that of the shutdowns concexns preoperational sources of error; design" and installation errors.

-- account for 23X 'of all reportable events (Sect.. 4.5'.2.2). Shutdowns do not acknowledge this source'f error explicitly.

Human factors cause a higher percentage of reportable events, by a factor of 2, than of shutdowns . This difference in human causes 56X of the repoxtable events to 27X of the shutdowns is discussed below...

For reportable events, human'actors 'include administrative, design, fabrication, installation, mainten'ance, and operator errors -'n short,. all those causes listed in Table 4.8 ezcept inherent failures, lightning, and other weather. For -shutdowns, human factors include 'maintenance or .testing, administrative, or operational errors (item I.3 of Table 4.2). This categoriza-tion scheme itself tends to attribute human factors as cause to more reportable events than to shutdowns. In spite of this inherent bias in the categoriza-tion scheme; same valid conclusions can be drawn.

Operator errors as.repoxted causes for shutdowns were reduced to one in 1972 and none thereafter, and no evidence exists in the shutdown reports to suggest that operator-error-induced shutdowns occurred after 1972 but were reported as having other causes. Human factors as defined above caused shut-downs throughout the plant's life, though again the first years of operation were the worst here, with over one-third (10 of 28) occurring in 1970 alone.

4-54 Reportable events, on the other hand, attribute over half of their causes to human factors. No reportable events were attributed to operator errors thxough 1974; however, in 1975 through 1979, they avexaged ovex'wo per year (Table 4.8), Human factors averaged 7 per year'hxough 1974 and from 1975 through 1979 averaged 13.4 per year. 'This increase, however, simply reflects the overall trend of increased numbers of reported events (Fig. 4.1); human factors accounted for roughly 50Z of all reportable event causes each year from 1970 thxough 1979. The difference in causes for shutdowns and reportable events indicates that while human factors can frequently incapacitate com-ponents and can influence tests and maintenance operations that in turn generate reportable events, they are much less likely to incapacitate systems that in turn generate reactor shutdowns. Also, as indicated before, 27Z of reportable events were generated by preoperational causes (design, fabrication, and installation errors) all of which are caused by human factors.

=Tests helped identify many potential safety hazards at Ginna. Tests uncovered significant fault's as reported in (1) AO 75-10, when both of SI

,pump C's outlet valves were found closed, and (2) 76-11, when 25Z of the control room ventilation filter capability was found inoperable. Concurrent tests run on April 27, 1971, uncovered a highly significant fault in the emergency power supply for all four boric acid tank (BAT)-to-SI valves.

Never did failures resulting from tests jeopardize the safety of the plant or nullify the design capability of a safety system.

4-55 Inspections turned up the recurring main steam and steam generator snubber leak problems as reported in 77-13, 78-06, and 79-20. Inspections also found potential common cause failures involving safety equipment anchor bolts (79-12) and piping supports (79-15). System modifications did not cause problems except for one in 1975 when an. inspection found that no separation of redundant function was provided for a modified'afety system (UE 75W6).

Although 1979 was a very good year at Ginna, recurring problems with condenser and steam generator tube failure are not yet solved. Problems here have consistently caused shutdowns from 1975 through the present. Condenser tube failures were identified through power reductions; reportable events never were involved.

Other recuxxing problems leading to shutdowns seem to be solved: EH turbine-generator governor control problems, not a factor since May 22, 1976; instrument bus inverter failures, not a factor since June 3, 1976; manual feedwater control prqblems, never a factor except in the first 8 months of operation; main feedwater pump impeller failures, no occurrence since September 10, 1976; MSXV spurious closuxes, not a factor since June 23, 1975; pressurizer spray valve packing leaks, not a factor since September 5, 1972; and turbine blade failures, not a factor since August 7, 1976. Contxol rod malfunctions, though they have not caused a shutdown since November 17, 1977, have not been resolved.

No enyironmental considerations ever constrained operations at, Ginna.

Only once, in March and April 1970, did the liquid effluent require isotopic analysis and comparison with maximum permissible concentrations befoxe being xeleased to the discharge canal.
