EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Washington Nuclear Project-2
NRC Inspection Report 50-397/98-15
During the weeks of July 13 and July 27, 1998, the NRC conducted the onsite portion of an
engineering team inspection.
The team inspection included a review of the design and
licensing basis for the high pressure core spray system and associated
support systems and a
review of the fire protection program.
The team found that the design and testing of the high pressure core spray system was
generally consistent with applicable licensing, design, and operations documents
(Section E1).
The high pressure core spray pump had adequate available net positive suction head.
The team found that the high pressure core spray system valves were capable of
performing their functions under accident conditions (Sections E1.1.1 and E2.2).
Design control errors were identified that did not affect equipment operability. The
Mode 4 and 5 technical specification surveillance requirement acceptance
criterion for
condensate
storage tank level did not assure the Technical Specification Bases
commitment to maintain 135,000 gallons reserve in the condensate
storage tank. The
technical specification allowable value for reactor vessel water Level 1 ir. the emergency
core cooling system instrumentation table was not correctly derived from the analytic
limitfor Level 1 in that it did not include sufficient margin for post-accident environmental
effects. These errors were determined to be examples of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50,
Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," (Sections E1.1.1 and E1.2).
The licensee had developed a data base that captured the relationship between
calculations, so that they could identify needed calculation revisions. When a
calculation was revised, the data base was used to identify all of the other calculations
that were potentially impacted by the revision. This data base relied on calculation cross
references;
however, these cross references were not always accurate or complete for
older calculations (Sections E1.1.1, E1.3.1 and E8.5).
Based on a sample of six modification packages,
recent design modification packages
were correctly prepared in accordance with the current procedures.
The plant
modification requests addressed
all relevant design and safety issues and effectively
verified the design changes by post-modification testing.
Thc, current format for a
'odification package was clear and easy to understand (Sections E1.1.2, E1.3.2, and
F2).
~
In violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and
Drawings," procedures were not always adequately followed or prescribed.
Category
1
and 2 post-accident monitoring instruments were not all identified on the main control
panel.
The temperature assumptions
in site short-circuit calculations were not
adequately verified to ensure they were representative
of actual room temperatures.
In
addition, the licensee had not identified and accounted for all outstanding calculation
modification records, which could affect the results/conclusions
of the electrical system
load tally (Sections E1.2, E1.3.1 and E8.5).
The installed instrumentation and controls met high pressure core spray system logic
requirements.
The majority of the high pressure core spray controls and
instrumentation were installed in conformance with good human factors practices, and
the licensee routinely trained the operators regarding the availability and use of
particular instruments during accidents.
High pressure core spray instrument setpoint
channel check and calibration procedures were adequate to ensure'safe
and reliable
operation, and the procedures were well written and had an adequate
level of detail
(Sections E1.2 and E2.5).
The license'e responded to the team's findings with a strong safety focus and effectively
identified additional examples of issues identified by the team related to testing the
Division 2 battery and consideration of post-accident environment effects in the setpoint
of reactor vessel Level 1 (Sections E1.2 and E2.6).
The electrical distribution system for the high pressure core spray system was generally
well designed (Section E1.3.1).
The licensee had not appropriately assessed
the significance of some breaker
coordination errors in the dc system and, as a result, did not promptly correct these
design deficiencies.
This was a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI,
"Corrective Action," (Section E1.3.1)..
Based on the area walkdowns, the high pressure core spray and high pressure core
spray standby service water system configurations were consistent with the design
basis.
The plant reflects the licensee's apparent attention to housekeeping.
The team
did not observe any improperly stored material or unsecured temporary equipment
(Sections E2.1 and F3) ~
One unresolved item was identified concerning establishment of appropriate leak testing
for liquid secondary containment bypass valves. This matter is unresolved pending
NRC review of the calculation method for evaluating the consequences
of leakage from
the liquid bypass isolation valves (Section E2.3).
The thermal performance test results for the high pressure core spray standby service
water system demonstrated
that the system was operable.
However, the Division 3
Diesel Generator cooler thermal performance test acceptance
criterion did not assure
acceptable thermal performance for all allowed high pressure care spray standby
service water system flows in violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI,
"Test Control" (Section E2.4).
The licensee had not fullyimplemented a new technical specification requirement and,
as a result, inappropriately credited a battery performance test for a battery service test.
The team identified the issue as it related to the Division 3 battery.
During followup of
the team's findings, the licensee identified a similar condition for the Divisions 1 and 2
Batteries.
This was significant because
the previous service test had expired for the
Division 2 battery, which was in violation of Technical Specification 3.0.2. This required
a notice of enforcement discretion to allow continued operation (Section E2.6).
The fire protection program was effectively implemented.
Fire equipment was being
properly maintained, upgraded, and tested at the required frequencies.
The fire brigade
was properly trained and qualified to perform fire fighting, and the annual medical
examination requirement was being met. The fire protection program procedures'were
comprehensive
in detailing the requirements for control of transient combustibles,
barrier impairments,
and control of ignition sources.
With respect to the fire protection
program, the licensee's audit and corrective action processes
were effective. Several
strengths identified in the 1997 audit by the licensee were confirmed by the team during
this inspection, especially fire personnel knowledge and skill, and excellent material
condition of the fire fightirig equipment (Sections F2, F3 and F7).

Re ort Details
Ins ection Ob'ectives
This inspection was performed in accordance with two core inspection procedures: "Safety
System Engineering Inspection," (93809) and "Fire Protection," (64704). The team reviewed
design and licensing documentation for the high pressure core spray (HPCS) system.
This
system was selected because
of its relatively high risk significance.
In addition, the team
reviewed the design basis documentation for support systems such as HPCS standby service
water and associated
portions of the electrical distribution system.
The team also evaluated
implementation of the fire protection program.

E1.1.1 HPCS Mechanical Design Capability
a.
Ins ection Sco
e
The team reviewed various HPCS system calculations and compared them to the
available licensing, design, and operations documents related to the capability of the
HPCS system to supply required flowfrom either the suppression
pool or the
condensate
storage tank (CST). The team also evaluated the capacity of the CST.
b.
Observations and Findin s
= HPCS System Performance
The team found that the HPCS system was'capable of providing the required flow to the
reactor pressure vessel under accident conditions as specified in Final Safety Analysis
Report (FSAR) Figure 6.3-1, "Head Versus High Pressure Core Spray Flow Used in the
LOCA Analysis," and that the value for the technical specification surveillance
requirement acceptance
criterion for HPCS flowwas appropriate. The team also
confirmed that HPCS system performance was consistent with the design basis
documents provided to a vendor for performance of the emergency core cooling
analysis.
Available HPCS Pump Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH)
The team found that the HPCS pump would be provided with adequate available NPSH
from both the CST source and the suppression
pool source under accident conditions.
The HPCS System design included provisions to automatically transfer the HPCS pump
suction supply from the CSTs to the suppression
pool in the event of a pipe break in the
non-seismic portion of the CST suction piping outside the Reactor Building. Calculation
5.19.13, "Sizing of HPCS Emergency Water Volume," Revision 5, was performed to
verify that, in the event of a pipe break in the non-seismic portion of the CST suction
piping outside the reactor building, the HPCS pump suction would transfer prior to air
being drawn into the pump suction. This calculation was revised by CMR-94-1160 dated
December 19, 1994, and CMR-97-0003 dated April 17, 1997. The team's review of this
calculation indicated that Page 26 of the calculation determined the NPSH based on a
suppression
pool temperature of 140'- F. The calculation did not include a reference for
the 140'- F value. The team asked if a reference for the 140'
value was available.
The licensee determined that the suppression
pool temperature at the time of the
transfer had been revised from 140'
to 146'- F as a part of the power uprate analysis
performed by GE in 1995.
During the inspection, the licensee completed an informal
calculation and determined that the results of Calculation 5.19.13 were not affected by
this error. The team agreed and concluded that the HPCS pump would be provided with
adequate
NPSH from the CST supply considering a break in the CST supply piping, the
most limiting . This condition was fourid to be the most limiting NPSH for the system,
when supplied from the CST.
The licensee initiated PER 298-0963 and stated that the calculation would be revised to
add the appropriate references.
This failure to update the suppression
pool temperature
constitutes a violation of minor significance and is not subject to formal enforcement
action. While not safety significant, this issue is similar to Unresolved Item
50-397/96024-02, which was previously closed in NRC Inspection Report 50-397/97-18.
The team concluded this minor failure provided further support of NRC's conclusion that
the licensee's calculation update controls were weak.
The licensee also developed a calculation that demonstrated that the HPCS pump
would be provided with adequate
NPSH from the suppression
pool assuming a
maximum pool temperature of 204~ F, a run out HPCS pump flow of 7175 gallons per
minute (gpm), and up to 16.1 feet of head loss across the suction strainers.
The team
found this calculation to be correct and consistent with the licensee's commitment to
Regulatory Guide 1.1, "Net Positive Suction Head For Emergency Core Cooling and
Containment Heat Removal System Pumps," Revision 0.
Available CST Capacity
The team found that the CSTs were sized to provide an adequate water supply to the
HPCS system under accident conditions.
However, the operating level requirements in
the technical specifications did not assure operation at design basis capacity in some
modes.
Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.5.2.2 required that the CST water
level be maintained above 13.25 feet in a single tank or above 7.6 feet in each tank if
the suppression
pool level was below its minimum level. This surveillance requirement
was only applicable during plant Modes 4 and 5. The associated Technical Specification Bases, Section 3.5.2, "ECCS - Shutdown," stated that these levels were
equivalent to 135,000 gallons in the CST to ensure that the HPCS system could supply
makeup water to the reactor pressure vessel.
FSAR, Section 6.3.2.2.1, "[System
-2-
P
Design] High Pressure
Core Spray (HPCS) System," also stated that the CSTs contain
a reserve of approximately 135,000 gallons of water just for use by HPCS and reactor
core isolation cooling (RCIC). Similarly, FSAR, Section 5.4.6.2.2.1.f., "[Reactor Core
Isolation Cooling System Design] Description," stated that the total reserve storage for
reactor pressure vessel makeup was 135,000 gallons."
In 1983, Calculation 5.52.070, "Setpoints - CST System," Revision 0, established the
minimum required CST levels of 13.25 feet and 7.6 feet to meet the Technical
Specification Bases.
This calculation determined the level needed to ensure
135,000 gallons of water above the level at which the suction supply for the HPCS and
RCIC systems is automatically transferred from the CSTs to the suppression
pool. The
automatic transfer of the HPCS system supply from the CSTs to the suppression
pool
was designed to be initiated by Level Switch HPCS-LS-1A or HPCS-LS-1 B, both located
on the HPCS standpipe in the reactor building.
In 1991, engineering personnel developed an improved estimate of when the automatic
transfer would occur. Calculation E/I-02-91-1011, "Setting Range Determination for
Instrument Loops HPCS-LS-1A & HPCS-LS-1B," Revision 0, was performed in 1991
and revised by Calculation Modification Record
96-0007 dated January 15, 1996. The
team reviewed the calculation and the associated
calculation modification record and
found the licensee had considered the pressure drop in the piping from the CSTs, as
well as other factors, to more accurately establish the relationship between the water
level in the instrument standpipe and the actual level in the CST.
In this calculation, the
licensee determined that, under some flow conditions, the level sensed by the
instruments located at the instrument standpipe could differ from the CST level. As
shown in Calculation Modification Record.96-0007,
the suction transfer could occur
sooner than previously estimated.
As a result, the team noted that the HPCS pump
suction could automatically transfer from the CSTs to the suppression
pool prior to the
full 135,000 gallons being supplied to the reactor pressure vessel under some flow
conditions.
The team asked if the minimum required CST levels in Technical Specification
Surveillance Requirement 3.5.2.2 assured that the HPCS system could supply
135,000 gallons of makeup water to the reactor pressure vessel.
In response to this
question, the licensee issued Problem Evaluation Request 298-0899, "Results of
Calculation E/I-02-91-1011 (HPCS-LS-1A & 1B) Not Incorporated into Calculation
5.52.070 (CST Setpoints)," dated July 17, 1998.
This problem evaluation report documented that the HPCS and RCIC systems remained
The 135,000 gallon volume requirement was not critical with respect to any
safety function of the HPCS or RCIC systems.
In addition, the licensee stated that the
CST operating procedure maintains the CST level above 21 feet. The licensee stated
that they have implemented additional administrative controls to ensure that an
adequate CST level willbe maintained and that they willeither modify the plant or
revise the technical specification and/or the Technical Specification Bases, as
appropriate, to resolve this conflict.
This failure appeared to be related to the age and lack of references
in the original plant
design calculation, Calculation 5.52.070, that established
the technical specification
-3-
values.
The licensee stated that the more recent calculation revisions included an index
of those interfacing documents that were impacted by the revision, as well as an index
of references.
The licensee had implemented a relational database
to assist individuals
revising engineering documents including calculations.
This database
contained related
interface inputs and outputs for calculations and, when calculations are revised, the
engineers updated the database.
The licensee stated that older calculations have not
been back fit with this design control unless they have been recently revised.
The team
concluded that the lack of a well documented original design basis contributed to a
design control failure.
Based on the additional similar minor failures identified in this report (Sections 1.2 and
1.3.1) and in NRC Inspection Report 50-397/96-24, the team determined that the data
base being used by the licensee to identify calculations impacted by revision of another
calculation was not sufficiently reliable to be used as the only method for evaluating the
impact calculation revisions would have on other older calculations.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," states that measures shall
be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis,
as defined in g 50.2 and as specified in the license application for those structures,
systems, and components to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into
specifications, drawings, procedures,
and instructions.
The design basis CST capacity,
as addressed
in the FSAR and the Technical Specification Bases, were not correctly
translated into the plant design.
This is an example of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50,
Appendix B, Criterion III (50-397/981 5-01).
Conclusions
The team concluded that the HPCS pump would be provided with adequate available
NPSH from both the CST source and the suppression
pool source under accident
conditions. With the exception of the available CST capacity issue, the team found that
the HPCS system design was consistent with the applicable licensing, design, and
operations documents.
In the CST capacity case, the lack of a well documented original
design basis contributed to a design control failure that was determined to be an
example of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control."
E1.1.2 HPCS Strainer Modification
Ins ection Sco
e
The team reviewed one significant design modification to the mechanical portions of the
HPCS system.
Basic Design Change 96-0139-0A, "ECCS Suction Strainer
Replacement," Revision 0, replaced the HPCS, low pressure core spray (LPCS), and
residual heat removal (RHR) system strainers in the suppression
pool in response to
NRC Bulletin 96-03, "Potential Plugging of Emergency Core Cooling Suction Strainers
by Debris in Boiling Water Reactors."
Observations and Findin s
The team found that the reason for change, functional objective, design description,
impact on operation, and testing requirements for the modification were clearly stated in
the modification package.
The installation instructions were detailed and consistent with
the safety evaluation.
The screening for licensing basis and the 10 CFR 50.59 safety
evaluation were complete and correct, the appropriate calculations were referenced, the
post-modification testing requirements were appropriate, and the required plant
documentation had been updated to reflect the modification.
In general, the team found
this modification package to be of high quality.
Conclusions
E1.2
This recent design modification package was correctly prepared in accordance with the
current procedures.
The format was clear and easy to understand.
HPCS Control S stem Desi
n
Ins ection Sco
e
The team reviewed various HPCS instrumentation and control design drawings,
calculations, and isometric sketches to confirm compliance with applicable portions of
the technical specifications and commitments made in FSAR, Chapters 6, 7, and 15; the
licensee's controlled specifications; and correspondence
to the NRC.
The team also
conducted walk downs of the main control room to evaluate the human factors aspects
of the HPCS control panel layout. The team evaluated setpoint calculations for
instruments that initiate and control the MPCS system and the translation of design
, requirements into the technical specifications.
The team reviewed eight setpoint
calculations.
Observations and Findin s
HPCS Control System Logic
The team's review of HPCS and support system electrical control drawings, one-line
power distribution drawings, piping and instrument drawings, and operating procedures
resulted in the conclusion that the HPCS control scheme was designed to provide for
automatic vessel level control between Level 2 (low) and Level 8 (high) or to provide for
manual override as needed to respond to an anticipated transient without scram.
HPCS Main Control Room Panel Layout
The team noted that the majority of the HPCS controls and instrumentation were
installed in conformance with good human factors practices on Panel H13-P601.
The
controls were laid out in a logical manner, and the operators would be able to observe
the results of switch manipulations on nearby process indicators. With the exception of
the keylock override Switches HPCS-RMS-S25 and -S26 for Injection Valve HPCS-V-4,
-5-
all necessary
controls were laid out so that one operator could easily control the HPCS
system with minimal movement.
Switches HPCS-RMS-S25 and -S26 were located on a panel several feet away from
the other HPCS controls. These keylock override switches were installed under Plant
Modification Request 92-0150-2 to expedite post anticipated transient without scram and
loss of vessel level indication emergency procedures and were an improvement over
past procedures that required the installation of jumpers rather than simple switch
manipulations.
Placing the switches in override on Panel H13-P625 will result in an
annunciator window illuminating on the main HPCS control panel, Panel H13-P601.
The
team determined this to be an acceptable design feature.
During a review of the HPCS layout in the control room, the team noted the overall
control room was well designed and maintained.
Noise level and lighting observed
under normal plant conditions were acceptable.
The team noted obsolete recorders
were replaced several years ago with more current technology recorders.
The licensee
consistently used the same make of recorder.
The team determined this effort to
present information to operators on similar devices was a strength.
Regulatory Guide Compliance
The team reviewed the HPCS indicators against Three Mile Island accident lessons
learned described in Regulatory Guide 1.47, "Bypassed/Inoperable
Status Indication,"
Revision 0, and Regulatory Guide 1.97, "Instrumentation for Light-Water Cooled Power
Plants to Assess Plant and Environs Conditions During and Following an Accident,"
Revision 2. The team noted the HPCS out-of-service alarm panel had adequate system
level and specific component alarm windows to meet Regulatory Guide 1.47 guidance.
The team noted that Operating License Condition 16 required the licensee to implement
requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.97, with the exception of flux monitoring, prior to
startup following the first refueling outage.
Section C, "Regulatory Position,"
Paragraph 1.4, stated that the instruments designated as Types A, B, and C and
Categories
1 and 2 should be specifically identifi 'n the control panels so that the
operator can easily discern that they are intended for use under accident conditions.
During the panel walk down, the team noted that the following Regulatory Guide 1.97
Type A, B, and C, Category
1 and 2, post-accident monitoring instruments were not
specifically identified on the control panels so that the operators could tell that they were
intended for use under accident conditions:
ECCS Pump Room Flood Elevation FDR-LI-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
(Type A, Category 1)
Primary Containment Isolation Valves (Type B, Category 1)
Neutron Flux Recorders WRM-LR-1,2, SRM-LR-602A,B, and IRM-LR-603A,B
(Type B, Category 1)
-6-
Building Gaseous
Release
Monitors PRM-RR-3 (Type C, Category 2)
Standby Service Water Radiation SW-RIS-605 (Type C, Category 2)
A design engineer involved with the original post-accident monitoring commitments in
FSAR, Section 7.5.1.1, and Operating License Condition 16 stated that the markings
were described in Standard Engineering Detail, Human Factors Engineering Standard
(HFES) -10, "Demarcation Standard,"
Revision 0. HFES-10, Section 3.1, required the
use of 0.25-inch wide red demarcation lines to identify and enhance the visibilityof
Category
1 post-accident monitoririg instruments; all other demarcation lines were to be
black. The team noted that HFES-10 did not'include a requirement for marking
Category 2 post-accident monitoring instruments.
The licensee initiated Problem Evaluation Report 298-0898 to address this discrepancy.
Based on a review of photo logs of the control room, the licensee determined that they
were in compliance with the license condition for both Category
1 and 2 post-accident
monitoring instruments, as required, prior to startup following the first refueling outage.
The licensee stated that identification of the neutron flux recorder as a post-accident
monitor, Category 1, parameter was probably lost when the recorders were replaced,
but th'e indications were still qualified Class 1E devices.
The licensee stated that the
primary containment isolation valve status panel was removed either during construction
or early after licensing because
of design deficiencies and was replaced with position
lights above each of the associated switches in various locations around the control
room. While these indicators were not 'marked as post-accident monitors, the
indications were still qualified Class 1E. They speculated that the remaining markings
were likely removed and not reinstalled, when the control room was painted.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and Drawings,"
states, in part, "Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented
instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances
and
shall be accomplished
in accordance with these instructions." The failure to accomplish
control panel marking for Category
1 instruments in accordance with HFES-10 and the
failure to prep-.rly prescribe marking requirements for Category 2 post-accident
monitoring instruments in instructions, procedures, and drawings is an example of a
violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V (50-397/9815-02).
Interviews with licensed control room operators, several design engineers, and system
engineers resulted in the observation that, in general, personnel were not aware of the .
Regulatory Guide 1.97 license condition and related commitment to identify
post-accident monitor Category
1 and 2 devices.
However, the licensee noted that
operators received extensive training on the more general topic of which instruments
could be relied upon post accident.
Setpoint Program
At original licensing, the licensee committed to determine instrument errors based on
test and experience.
During the early 1990s, the licensee stated they had subsequently
conducted a large setpoint uncertainty calculation program.
This program was
-7-
described in Procedure EES-4 "Setpoint Methodology" and was based on ISA-67.04,
"Methodology for the Determination of Setpoints for Nuclear Safety Related
Instrumentation."
The results of this program were used as a basis for the improved
technical specification submittal.
The licensee submitted their improved technical specifications in 1995. Technical Specification Bases, Sections B 3.3.1.1, "Reactor Protection System (RPS)
Instrumentation," and B 3.3.5.1, "Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS)
Instrumentation," in the improved technical specifications both state that the technical
specification allowable values were derived from the analytic limits, corrected for
process and all instrument uncertainties, except drift and calibration. The trip setpoints
included in the licensee controlled specification manual are derived from the analytic
limits, corrected for process and all instrument uncertainties, including drift and
calibration.
Elevation Uncertainty
The team questioned the licensee regarding the need for inclusion of an uncertainty
term in the reactor vessel level setpoint calculations to provide an allowance for
construction elevation uncertainty.
The licensee reviewed vendor supplied
documentation related to reactor vessel fabrication and found that the dimensions for
the as-built configuration of the vessel level taps had been measured (post-fabrication)
to within + 1/32 of the designed vessel level tap locations.
The licensee also reviewed
vendor documentation related to the development of analytical limits and found that the
analytical limits included the measured as-built elevation uncertainties.
Therefore, it was
not necessary to include an additional allowance for construction elevation uncertainty in
the reactor vessel level setpoint calculations.
Environmental Effects
The team found that Calculation E/l-02-91-1051, "Setting Range Determination for
MS-LIS-31A, -31B, -31C, -31D, -37A, -37B, -37C, and -37D," Revision 0, contained the
assumption that, although the instruments were 'ocated inside a harsh e;.,:'ronment, the
uncertainties associated
with the harsh environment were not required to be included in
the analysis.
The team questioned the validity of this assumption because
reactor
vessel Level 2 signals generated by Level Indicating Switches MS-LIS-31A, -B, -C & -D
were used for long-term HPCS level control.
The licensee initiated Problem Evaluation Report 298-0900 to address this issue and
determined that MS-LIS-31 A, -31 B, -31C, and -31D remained operable.
The licensee
found that there was enough existing margin between the technical specification
allowable value for HPCS actuation at Level 2 and the analytical limitfor Level 2 to
.
accommodate the larger harsh environment uncertainties.
Because the technical
specification allowable value remained correct and the more limiting setpoints in the
plant calibration procedure continued to ensure that the allowable value of the technical
specifications would not be exceeded,
the team concluded that the calculation e'rror had
not adversely impacted the HPCS control system design.
-8-
The team requested that the licensee verify that this problem did not affect the other
reactor vessel instruments.
The licensee identified that Switch
1 on Switches
MS-LIS-37A, -37B, -37C, and -37D could potentially be affected by the same error. This
switch was used for initiation of the automatic depressurization
and low pressure coolant injection (LPCI) at reactor vessel water Level 1 (consistent
with Technical Specification Table 3.3.5.1-1, "Emergency Core Cooling System
Instrumentation," Items 1.a, 2.a, 4.a, and 5.a).
For the purposes of promptly evaluating operability, the licensee assumed that all of
these switches were required to operate post-accident.
The licensee noted that for the
Level 1 switches, the additional uncertainty introduced because
of harsh environmental
effects could not be accommodated
between the existing technical specification
allowable value and the analytic limit. The licensee determined that a revision to the
technical specification allowable value for Level 1 from -148-inches reactor vessel water
level to -142.3-inches reactor vessel water level would be required, if these switches
were required to operate post-accident.
The most recent calibration settings were
sufficiently conservative to assure the Level 1 trip would occur at a reactor water vessel
level above -142.3-inches reactor vessel water level; therefore, the level switches were
The team determined that the licensee did an effective extent of condition
review.
The licensee planned additional research to determine if all the Level 1
switches were required to operate post-accident.
Subsequent
to the conclusion of the onsite inspection, the team requested a copy of the
environmental qualification report for Switches
MS-LIS-37A, -37B, -37C, and -37D,
used for initiation of ADS, LPCS, and LPCI at reactor vessel water Level 1. The
licensee provided documentation that stated these switches were required to be able to
change state for 4,320 hours0.0037 days <br />0.0889 hours <br />5.291005e-4 weeks <br />1.2176e-4 months <br />, while subjected to harsh environment conditions.
On this
basis, the team concluded the switches were required to operate post-accident and that
the current technical specification allowable values were incorrect in that a more
conservative value was needed to adequately include post-accident harsh environment
uncertainties and assure that the associated
analytical limitwas met.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," states, in part, "Measures
shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design
basis, as defined in g 50.2 and as specified in the license application...
are correctly
translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions." The failure to
correctly translate the Technical Specification Bases commitment to derive the allowable
values from the analytic limitcorrected for process and all instrument uncertainties
except drift and calibration into the technical specification for Reactor Vessel Water Low
I ow Low - Level 1 is a an example of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B,
Criterion III (50-397/9815-01).
Conclusions
The installed instrumentation and controls met HPCS system logic requirements.
The
majority of the HPCS controls and instrumentation were installed in conformance with
good human factors practices, and the licensee routinely trained the operators regarding
the availability and use of particular instruments during accidents.
However, the licensee
did not meet Regulatory Guide 1.97, "Instrumentation for Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear
-9-
Power Plants To'Assess
Plant Environs Conditions During and Following an Accident,"
guidance to specifically identify to operators instruments intended for use under accident
conditions.
Control panel marking was not always accomplished
in accordance
with
Human Factors Engineering Standard (HFES) -10, "Demarcation Standard,"
Revision 0,
Section 3.1, which required the use of 0.25-inch wide red demarcation lines to identify
and enhance the visibilityof Category
1 post-accident monitoring instruments.
In
addition, marking requirements were not prescribed in documented instructions for
Category 2 post-accident monitoring instruments.
The failure to follow procedures and
the failure to prescribe adequate procedures were determined to be examples of a
violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and
Drawings."
In general, HPCS setpoint analyses were acceptably developed based on ISA-67.04,
"Methodology for the Determination of Setpoints for Nuclear Safety Related
Instrumentation."
However, the team identified a failure to include harsh environment
effects on the reactor vessel Level 2 switch. In this case, there was adequate margin
between the analytical limitand the existing technical specification allowable values to
accommodate
the error. The licensee identified a similar issue with the reactor
vessel'evel
1 switches that willlikely require a technical specification revision. The failure to
adequately include post-accident harsh environment uncertainties in the technical
specification allowable value for reactor vessel water Level 1 was an example of a
violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control."

E1.3.1
HPCS Electrical Design Capability
The team reviewed calculations to evaluate the basis for the derated ampacity assigned
to both alternating current (ac) and direct current (dc) HPCS power cables and the
selection and coordination of various protective devices.
The team reviewed calculations
to evaluate the capability of HPCS system components to withstand the maximum
available short-circuit currents in the ac and dc distribution-systems.
The team reviewed
procedures and calculations to confirm that the Division 3 Diesel Generator trips were
functional, especially those not bypassed,
and to check that the generator would not
exceed its nameplate power ratings during the initiation and operation of the HPCS
system.
The team reviewed calculations to confirm adequate minimum expected ac and
dc voltages.
The team also reviewed the cable routing and heat trace design for the
HPCS.system.
Observations and Findin s
Ampacity of AC and DC Power Cables
The team found that all power cables were conservatively derated, assuming worst case
loading in trays and conduits, for environmental conditions that can cause higher
operating cable temperatures.
Calculation 02.06.20 determined a cable's ampacity by
-10-
the calculated-cable-depth
method used in National Electric Manufacturers Association
Publication WC51-1975, "Ampacities Cables in Open-top Cable Trays" This method
assumed
uniform heat production per cable tray area and then determined a given
cable's ampacity based on the calculated depth of all cables in the tray. The licensee
conservatively applied the above formula and then applied derating factors for
temperature
in a specific area; covers on trays; fire barriers; trays covered with Thermo-
Lag; etc.
For conduits, the free air ampacity was derated for the number of cables in a
conduit and the number of conduits in proximity to one another in an array during routing
with the largest array in a given route being most limiting. The derating factors used
were the latest conservative values proposed by industry. After taking this approach, the
allowable ampacities of some cables were less than their required full load currents. The
above formula for calculated cable depth in tray was then adjusted to take into account
the intermittently loaded cables and spare cables in a given tray. This meant heat
production in a given tray dropped, but the allowable heat tolerance of a given cable
would rise permitting higher ampacities for the problem cables.
4 kV Over Current Protection
The team found that the over current protection for the 4 kV supply to the HPCS system
equipment was properly coordinated.
When the respective time overcorrect curves for
the normal feed to 4 kV Switchgear SM-4, the HPCS pump, and the 4 kV feeder to
Motor Control Center MC-4A, respectively, were plotted on the same log-log paper, it
was evident that coordination was achieved for all fault current values including the
starting current of the HPCS pump and the inrush current of the transformer supplying
Motor Control Center MC-4A.
480 Volt Over Current Protection
The team initiallynoted that the over current relay on the feeder from 4 kV Bus SM-4 to
480 volt Motor Control Center MC-4Adid not appear to coordinate with the 100 ampere
breaker on Motor Control Center MC-4A that supplied the Division 3 Diesel Generator
auxiliary ac panel.
In 1985, the licensee issued Field Change Request 85-9528-0-01 to
revise the setting of the over current relay, but at the time of the inspection had not
implemented these changes
in the field. The team was initiallyconcerned that a 1985
field change had not been implemented.
However, the team performed a further
evaluation and independently calculated the actual currents for the ac loads.
Even
though there was some slight overlapping of the time-current curves for the respective
protective devices involved, the overlap occurred at fault current values that were not
expected to occur. The team noted that only three phase fault currents were relevant,
because the 480-volt system was high resistance grounded.
The team determined that
the licensee had acceptably prioritized implementation of this field change based on
available fault currents.
The team found that electrical buses and components associated
with the HPCS system
had been properly sized to withstand the calculated fault currents.
Calculations
E/1-02-92-13, "Short Circuit Current Calculation for 480 V Systems, " Revision 0, dated
-11-
December 22, 1994, and Calculations E/1-02-92-09, "Short Circuit Current Calculation for
4.16 and 6.9 kV Buses," Revision 0, dated June 8, 1992, demonstrated
that the electrical
buses and components were capable of withstanding the maximum available short-circuit
current.
The team reviewed Calculation E/l-02-91-06, "Short Circuit Calculation for the
250 V, 125 V, and 24 V dc Systems," Revision 0, dated March 26, 1993, and determined
that all HPCS dc distribution system components had sufficient short-circuit withstand
capability to endure the low magnitude fault that was calculated to be available in the dc
system.
However, the team noted that all three calculations included incorrect design
assumptions for conductor temperature.
The licensee assumed
a conductor temperature
of 50'entigrade to calculate the cable resistances
in the dc system and 75'- Centigrade
to calculate the cable resistances
in the ac system.
These assumptions were not
conservative, because actual room temperatures
can go as low as 40'entigrade.
A
lower temperature decreases
resistance,
resulting in increased fault current. As
discussed
in the previous subsection,
in some cases breaker coordination and circuit
protection were acceptable based in part on the expected fault currents.
These cases
willneed to be reverified after the fault currents are recalculated.
The licensee agreed and included this concern in Problem Evaluation Report 298-0963.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and Drawings,"
states, in part, "Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions,
procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be
accomplished
in accordance with these instructions." Step 3.1.14 of Engineering
Instruction El 2.15, "Preparation, Verification and Approval of Calculations," effective
July 1 through August 9, 1991, and Step 4.1.15 of Engineering Department
Procedure EDP 2.15, "Preparation, Verification and Approval of Calculations,"
Revision 0, effective August 10, 1991, through March 1996 required that calculations be
verified by ensuring that all aspects are technically correct, complete, and accurate.
The
failure to adequately verify the conductor temperature input assumptions for Calculations
E/l-02-91-06, E/l-02-92-13, and E/1-02-92-09 resulted in an indeterminate conclusion
regarding the adequacy of the selected electrical protective equipment.
This failure is an
example of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V (50-397/9815-02).
'I
Coordination of Protective Devices in the DC System
The team determined that there was lack of coordination between the Division 3, battery
125-ampere output breaker, and the 20- and 70-ampere molded-case breakers located
at Distribution Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS.
The calculated fault current at the load-side
terminals of any breaker in Distribution Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS was 2020 amperes, which
would cause the battery output breaker and the respective molded-case breaker to open
simultaneously.
The team found that the licensee had previously identified the lack of coordination
between the Division 3 battery main breaker and the feeder breakers in Distribution
Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS in September 1992 and had documented the design deficiency on
Problem Evaluation Report 292-0409.
The responsibility for rectifying this design
-I2-
.
deficiency has been transferred among a variety of documents, but the latest one was
Technical Evaluation Request 97-0130-0 initiated in June 1998, which had not been
resolved.
The team found that the licensee had not promptly corrected this design
deficiency, in part, based on the fact that the HPCS system was not designed to be
single failure proof. The licensee had reasoned that for many loads on the distribution
panel, the loss of the load itself would cause loss of the HPCS system and; therefore, the
breaker coordination issue was moot.
However, the team identified that the lack of coordination was a design deficiency that
should be addressed,
because proper application of the single failure criterion required
that failures resulting from design deficiencies be pre-assumed.
Some loads on the
distribution panel were not required to operate the HPCS system, but a fault at the
load-side terminals of the supply breakers for these loads would still prevent operation of
the HPCS system.
For example, the Division 3 Diesel Generator lube oil Pump
DLO-P-10 was supplied from Distribution Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS and was not essential to
operation of the HPCS system.
The lube oil pump was only required for long-range
maintenance and reliabilityof the Division 3 Diesel Generator.
With the current design, a
fault at the load-side terminals of the supply breaker for lube oil pump DLO-P-10 could
cause the battery output breaker to trip, which would unnecessarily prevent the operation
of the HPCS system.
The team reviewed the licensee's commitments to provide proper breaker coordination.
The team found that in FSAR, Section 8.3.2.1.2.2, the licensee had committed to design
the 125-volt dc system in accordance with applicable clauses of IEEE Standard
308-1974.
IEEE Standard 308-1974, Section 5.3.1 (6), "[Direct-Current Systems,
General] Protective Devices states that, "Protective devices shall be provided to limit the
degradation of the Class 1E power systems."
The team determined that the current
protective device design for 125-V dc Distribution Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS did not
adequately limitdegradation of the HPCS Class 1E Power system when a fault occurred
at the load side breakers that supply non-critical loads.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI,"Corrective Action," states that measures
shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality such as deficiencies are
promptly corrected.
The failure to promptly correct the dc breaker coordination
deficiency is a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI (50-397/9815-03).
The licensee agreed and issued Problem Evaluation Report 298-0961
~ This problem
evaluation report included plans to correct the design deficiency during Refueling
Outage R-14 and to evaluate methods of prioritizing and resolving documented design
deficiencies to ensure timely resolution of open issues.
The team determined that this inspection report adequately describes the reasons for the
violation, and the actions taken to correct and prevent recurrence of the violation.
Therefore, the licensee is not required to respond to this violation.
-13-
Protection of Penetration Feedthroughs
The team found that the HPCS system penetration feedthroughs were adequately
protected from damage caused by over current. There are only two circuits that
penetrate containment for the HPCS system, and they are for position indication for
testable check Valve V-5 and for manually operated Valve V-51. Both valve indication
circuits have two over current devices to protect their feedthroughs from high fault
currents.
The indication circuit for Valve V-5 was disconnected,
but the calculation
showed that both valve indication circuits had their penetration feedthroughs adequately
protected by two protective devices in series.
If one device fails to open,
then the other
one will respond to open the circuit path to the feedthroughs.
HPCS Diesel Generator Capability
The team reviewed Calculation E/I-02-91-03, "Div.1, Div.2, and Div.3 Diesel Generator
Loading Calculation," Revision 6, and determined that peak accident loading of the
Division 3 Diesel Generator at 2610.2 kilowatts was just slightly above its continuous
rating of 2600 kilowatts and was well within its 2000 hour0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> rating of 2850 kilowatts. The
only major load on the Division 3 Diesel Generator was the HPCS pump. Based on a
review of the simulated loss of coolant accident tests for HPCS initiation, the team
determined that the Division 3 Diesel Generator could safely start all required HPCS
loads.
The team found that the Division 3 Diesel Generator trips were functional and that
appropriate trips were bypassed to maximize HPCS availability to perform it's safety
function. The team reviewed documentation of the most recent performance of
Procedure MMP-DG3-B103, "Diesel Generator DG-3 Mechanical Inspection," Revision 1,
and found that the over speed trip at 1037 RPM was adequately tested.
Using
Procedure TSP-DG3/LOCA-B501, " HPCS Diesel Generator DG3 LOCA Test,"
Revision 0, the licensee verified that the appropriate trips would be bypassed during a
loss of coolant accident.
The licensee also had performed periodic maintenance to
confirm the readiness of the only Division 3 Diesel Generator trip that was not bypassed,
the differential current relay.
During implementation of Procedure TSP-DG3/LOCA-B501, the licensee also verified
that the fuel oil storage tank level was at 44622 gallons (the technical specification limit
was 33,000 gallons) and that the emergency core cooling system activation signal
initiated the HPCS system.
4 kV Available Voltage During a LOCA and Starting of Large Motors
The team found that during a LOCA, Division 3 was supplied by Transformer TRS from
the 230 kV system.
The off-load tap setting for Transformer TRS was .975. This tap
setting effectively raised the source voltage to 1.025 per unit. The worst case voltage
drops willbe experienced when the HPCS system was supplied from the offsite source
and not the Division 3 Diesel Generator.
-14-
Calculation E/l-02-87-07, "WNP-2 Plant Main Bus Voltage Calculation," Revision 3,
showed that for the degraded grid voltage relay allowable minimum setting of 3684.45
volts ac, the available voltage at Motor Control Center MC-4A would be about 415 volts
ac. Calculation E/I-02-90-01, "Low Voltage Systems Loading and Voltage Calculations,"
Revision
4, indicated that with 415 volts at Motor Control Center MC-4A all of the Motor
Control Center MC-4A loads would be supplied a minimum of 408 volts ac at their
terminals.
This was less than the preferred value of 90 percent of nominal voltage or
414 volts ac and would cause the loads (especially the motor loads) to operate at
increased temperatures
because
of the reduced voltage.
The majority of the loads were
motor operated valves that operate only intermittently during a HPCS initiation and would
not be significantly affected by this concern.
Continuous HPCS loads would experience
an indefinable loss of thermal life because
of the expected increase in current du'ring low
voltage conditions.
However, since HPCS only operates infrequently, the team
determined that this minor design discrepancy would have negligible impact on the
overall reliabilityof the HPCS system.
All HPCS ac loads had sufficient voltage to operate even when starting motors on the
4 kV buses.
For worst case starting voltages at Bus SM-4, the team determined that the
HPCS system could be initiafed without causing the degraded grid voltage relay to
dropout.
Minimum AC Voltages at Low Voltage Buses
The team found that the licensee satisfactorily demonstrated
that all ac loads supplied
from Motor Control Center MC-4A had sufficient voltage to operate properly for all
operating conditions. The mechanical calculations for the HPCS motor operated valves
assumed the terminal voltage at each valve's motor to be 80 percent of 460-volts ac,
unless a higher voltage was required for a motor operated valve to develop its required
torque and thrust.
Some motor operated valves required more than 80 percent voltage
to open or close.
For example, Valves V-23 and V-12 required 85 percent and
88 percent voltage, respectively, to develop their required torque.
In Calculation
E/I-02-90-01, the licensee determined that the available voltage at each motor operated
valve's mc!.---lerminals was higher than that needed to assure proper operations of the
valve during the starting of motors at Motor Control Center MC-4A and upstream buses.
Minimum DC Voltages at Low Voltage Buses
The team's review confirmed that sufficient voltage was available at the terminals of most
dc power loads except for lube oil pump DLO-P-10.
When the starter for the Division 3
Diesel Generator lube oil pump DLO-P-10 was relocated from dc Distribution Panel E-
DP-S1/HPCS to near the pump itself, the voltage drop calculation was not revised to
incorporate this circuit change.
While this was a another indicator of the failure to
update calculations as changes occur, the team noted that lube oil pump was riot
required to support the HPCS system safety function. The licensee agreed that the
voltage drop calculation had not been appropriately revised and documented
it on
Problem Evaluation Report 298-0985.
This failure to update the voltage drop calculation
constitutes a violation of minor significance and is not subject to formal enforcement
action.
-15-
The team also noted that Calculation 2.07.04, "D.C. Cable Voltage Drop," Revision 5, did
not analyze voltage drops for instrumentation, relays, etc., in downstream panels from
the dc Distribution Panel E-DP-S1/HPCS.
The licensee planned to determine how they
assured that loads of this type had the requisite pickup voltage at their terminals under
minimum voltage conditions.
Cable Routing
The licensee, at the team's request, provided a copy of Cable and Raceway Report
CARPS 2.1 for power and control cables to HPCS motor operated valves and the HPCS
pump. This document showed that these cables were routed exclusively with Division 3
cables and in Division 3 raceways, which supported the separation policy.
Heat Tracing
The team asked the licensee about the heat tracing of the HPCS standby service water
piping. Only the return line was heat traced at the point where it rose out of the ground
and then drops down to facilitate discharging HPCS standby service water into standby
service water Pond A. The licensee stated that this heat tracing was supplied by a
Class 1E power supply, was alarmed for power failure, had indication that power was
available, and that the heat tracing alarms and indications were routinely monitored by a
roving operator.
Conclusions
In general,
the electrical equipment for the HPCS system was well designed.
Both ac
and dc power cables for the HPCS system were appropriately sized.
With some
exceptions, the electric protective devices were appropriately selected and coordinated.
The team concluded that the licensee had not appropriately assessed
the significance of
some breaker coordination errors in the dc system and did not promptly correct these
design deficiencies.
This was an example of a violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,
Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action." While some selections were marginal, the team found
that, in general, breakers were properly selected to withstand the maxir..
rn calculated
available short-circuit currents in the ac and dc distribution systems.
However, in conflict
with the licensee's procedures, the calculations to determine available short-circuit
currents contained nonconservative temperature assumptions.
This was an example of a
violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and
Drawings." Breaker coordination and protective device selection will need to be
reassessed
after the licensee correctly calculates the available short-circuit currents.
The team found that the Division 3 Diesel Generator had acequate capacity.
The
protective trips were functional and appropriate trips were bypassed on a safety actuation
signal. The team determined that the minimum expected ac and dc voltages were
adequate to meet HPCS system operating requirements.
The team also determined that
the cable routing and heat trace design for the HPCS system were satisfactory.

and 93-0052-0, "HPCS-MO-4 Close on Torque," to determine whether the intent of the
original design basis was maintained and to confirm that safety functions were not
compromised by the design change.

Plant Modification Record
93-0049-0, replaced an instantaneous
pickup auxiliary relay in
the opening control circuits of HPCS test return Valves V-10 and V-11 with an
instantaneous
pickup and delayed drop-out relay.
This relay was modified to delay the
close signal until the valve's opening motion had ceased,
thus preventing high actuator
currents and protective device actuations, which are caused by sudden motor reversals.
The plant modification record appeared
to the team to resolve the longstanding design
concern.
This design change did not impact the original safety purpose of each valve,
which was containment isolation during an accident, since it only delayed valve closing if
the valve was still trying to open.
The plant modification record properly addressed
the
seismic mounting of relays, ensured that the relays had sufficient rating for the available
current and voltage in each valve's control circuit, and all other relevant design concerns.
Use of Torque Switch to Control Closure for HPCS Injection Valve V-4
Plant Modification Record 93-0052-0, changed the closing control circuit of HPCS
Injection Valve V-4 to prevent damage to the valve by allowing a torque switch to control
closure in lieu of a limitswitch. The primary design safety function of this valve was to
open to inject water into the vessel during an accident, which was not altered by this
design change.
The close safety function was to prevent vessel overfill and containment
isolation. The post-modification test for this modification verified the new settings of the
torque switches along with verifying that back leakage was not altered from what it was
prior to this modification.

The plant modification records addressed
all relevant design and safety issues and

HPCS Pump Testing
Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.5.1.4 required the HPCS pump flow
to be greater than or equal to 6350 gpm and the pump head to be greater than or equal
to 200 psid. These variables were verified by the inservice testing program.
Surveillance
Procedure OSP-HPCS/IST-Q701,
"HPCS System Operability Test," Revision 3, included
the inservice testing of the HPCS pump. The low action limitfor pump flow was 6500
gpm, and the low action limitfor pump discharge pressure was 380 psig. Procedure
PPM 7.4.5.1.11, "Record of Reference Values and Acceptance Criteria Changes for
ASME Pumps and Valves," dated April20, 1992, provided the correction between an
indicated flowof 6500 gpm and an actual flowof 6350 gpm under test conditions.
Calculation ME-02-90-017, "Pressure Drop Verification for the HPCS System,"
Revision 0, determined that a pump discharge pressure of 380 psig would correspond to
a pump head of 200 psid. The team reviewed these documents and found them to be
correct and complete.
HPCS Valve Testing
The Inservice Testing (IST) Program Plan, Second 10-Year Interval, Revision 1,
identified the required testing for the HPCS system valves.
Surveillance Procedures
OSP-HPCS/IST-Q701and
OSP-HPCS/IST-R701,
"HPCS Check Valve Operability-
Refueling Shutdown," Revision 1, included the inservice testing of HPCS system valves.
The team reviewed these documents and found that the procedures correctly
implemented the program plan requirements.
Section 2 of the Program Plan stated that it complied with the requirements of
10 CFR 50.55a(b)(2) and 50.55a(f). The 1989 edition of ASME Section XI was
incorporated into Paragraph 50.55a(b) by rulemaking on September 8, 1992. The 1989
edition specified that the rules for the inservice testing of valves were stated in the
ASME/ANSI Operations and Maintenance (OM) Standards,
Part 10, "Inservice Testing of
-19-
0
0
Valves in Light-Water Power Plants." The applicable revision was the OMa-1988
Addenda to the OM-1987 Edition. OM-10 stipulated that Category A valves are those
valves with functions in which the closed valve seat leakage was limited to a specific
amount.
The team noted that the valves required to provide isolation between the HPCS system
and the CSTs under accident conditions were not classified as Category A and were not
required to be leak rate tested by the IST Program Plan.
Motor Operated Valve V-1
(14-inch) and Check Valve V-2 (20-inch) were in the CST suction line. Motor Operated
Valves V-10 and V-11 (10-inch) were in the HPCS test line to the CST. Allthese valves
would be closed to isolate the HPCS system from the CST, if the HPCS system was
taking suction from the suppression
pool after an accident.
It appeared that any leakage
through these valves could be released to the environment through the vented CSTs.
The IST valve classification of Valves HPCS-V-1, 2, 10, and 11 did not appear consistent
with FSAR, Section 6.2.3, "Secondary Containment Functional Design." Section 6.2.3.2,
"System Design," stated,'"The control rod drive, HPCS, RHR, LPCS, fuel pool cooling,
and RCIC systems connect to systems that terminate outside containment.
Each of the
water leak paths has been evaluated and the isolation valves have been 'assigned
leakage values based upon allowable ASME leak rates.
The summation of the water
leakage for all the water leak paths was equated to 0.03 standard cubic feet per hour
(scfh) of air."
Engineering Technical Memorandum TM-2099, Revision 0, which formed the basis for
part of FSAR, Section 6.2.3.2, established analytical leakage limits for liquid leakage
paths that originated in primary containment and would byp'ass secondary containment
on a "per valve basis," based upon allowable ASME leak rates.
The team determined
that, since these valves were not leak tested, the leakage limits assumed
in Technical
Memorandum TM-2099 were unrealistically low values for valves in service.
The team asked if the IST classification of these valve was consistent with the licensing
basis.
In response to this question, the licensee investigated the history of this issue
and concluded that, while the IST classification was not consistent with the current
licensing basis, it was the licensing basis that was in error. The licensee issued Problem
Evaluation Report 298-0928, "FSAR Value for Secondary Containment Bypass Leakage
Limitwas'nappropriately Being Applied to Liquid Leakage Bypass Paths," dated July 28,
1998.
The licensee planned to correct their licensing basis to make it clear that their
current testing practices were adequate for these secondary containment bypass valves.
The team reviewed the licensee's basis for their position. The licensee determined that
the initial plant licensing basis assigned a secondary containment bypass limitof
0.74 scfh to four gaseous leakage paths and did not include explicit consideration of
liquid bypass leakage paths.
After initial licensing, the licensee identified additional
gaseous bypass leakage paths.
The associated
valves were included in FSAR
Table6.2-16, "Primary Containment Isolation Valves," and were added to the local leak
rate test program.
The overall 0.74 scfh limitwas not changed to accommodate
the
additional gaseous leak paths.
-20-
In 1989, the licensee identified several liquid bypass leakage paths that had not been
explicitly addressed
during plant licensing. To ensure that the original 10 CFR Part 100
calculations remained valid, the licensee developed an equivalence between the gaseous
and liquid bypass leakage paths, utilizing Standard Review Plan 15.6.5, Appendix B, and
assuming that 10 percent of the liquid becomes airborne on a volumetric basis.
They
included the gaseous equivalent of the anticipated liquid bypass leakage in their estimate
of total gaseous
leakage.
The licensee determined that the total predicted liquid
leakage rate was equivalent to a gaseous leakage of .03 scfh. This value was subtracted
from the 0.74 scfh limitto establish the remaining gaseous
leakage limitof 0.71 scfh.
This evaluation was documented
in Interoffice Memorandum SS2-PE-89-0646,
"Potential
Bypass Leakage and Unmonitored Effluent Paths," dated June 22, 1989.
The application of a portion of the secondary containment bypass limitof 0.74 scfh to
liquid bypass leakage paths was added to the licensing basis in 1996.
FSAR/Technical
Specification Bases Change Notice 95-072, Revision 0, was approved on May 8, 1996,
revising FSAR, Section 6.2.3.2, to include a discussion of the liquid bypass leakage
being equated to 0.03 scfh of gaseous leakage.
Engineering Technical Memorandum
TM-2099, "Secondary Containment Bypass Leakage," Revision 0, formed the basis for
part of this FSAR change.
TM-2099 stated that the approach used to correlate liquid
leakage rates to equivalent gaseous
leakage rates was similar to Standard Review
Plan 15.6.5, Appendix B, with 10 percent of the leakage assumed to become airborne.
Based on questioning from the team, the licensee concluded that the calculation method
used to determine the equivalence between airborne and liquid secondary containment
bypass leakage in both Interoffice Memorandum SS2-PE-89-0646 and Engineering
Technical Memorandum TM-2099 was technically inaccurate and did not implement
Standard Review Plan 15.6.5.
During this inspection, the licensee performed an additional informal analysis of the
impact of the liquid leakage bypass paths using a new method and determined that the
offsite and control room doses would remain within the limits of 10 CFR Part 100
guidelines and the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria 19 limits.
Based on this new method, the analyst determined that the low population zone thyroid
dose consequences
would be 2.21 rem/gpm of liquid leakage.
Therefore, a total liquid
bypass leakage rate of greater than approximately 100 gpm would be required to exceed
the limits of 10 CFR Part 100 guidelines and the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General
Design Criteria 19 limits. The licensee stated that the impact of any potential liquid
bypass paths must be individually evaluated to determine the actual anticipated
conditions at the point of release, the timing and holdup capacity, any additional dilution
factors, applicability to the accident scenario being evaluated, and that Engineering
Technical Memorandum TM-2099 and the FSAR would be updated to reflect these
factors.
The licensee concluded that an assumption of a total system leakage limit rather than
individual valve leakage limits was appropriate for these secondary containment liquid
bypass paths.
Therefore an IST classification of Category A was not applicable to the
valves required to isolate liquid bypass leakage paths.
The licensee stated that leak
tightness of all liquid bypass paths would continue to be demonstrated
by Type A
Containment Leak Rate Testing. The liquid leakage necessary
to exceed the analyzed
-21-
limitwas of such a magnitude (approximately 100 gpm) that during the course of normal
plant operation, these potential liquid leakage paths could be demonstrated
to be
adequately leak tight by virtue of relatively stable CST level, reactor water sump and tank
levels, and standby service water system radiation levels. The team agreed that an IST
classification of Category A was not applicable to the valves required to isolate the liquid
bypass leakage paths, if leakage rates of approximately 100 gpm were found to be
acceptable and the FSAR was appropriately revised.
The team reviewed the licensee's informal analysis and questioned the new calculation
method used to determine the equivalence between airborne and liquid secondary
containment bypass leakage.
For the configurations being considered, the Standard
Review Plan 15.6.5, Appendix B, Revision 1, stated that if the calculated flash fraction
was less than 10 percent or if the water was less than 212
F, then 10 percent of the
Iodine in the leakage should be assumed to become airborne unless a smaller amount
was justified based on actual sump pH history and ventilation rates.
The licensee's
informal analysis did not assume that 10 percent of the Iodine in the liquid leakage
becomes airborne.
Instead the informal analysis was based on a General Electric study
that determined that the release fraction would be less than 10'0.1 percent) with 185'- F
suppression
pool water. The team did not verify the applicability of the reduced release
fraction based on the General Electric study to this application during the inspection.
This release fraction had a significant effect on the analysis results.
This item is
unresolved pending completion of an NRC review of the application of the General
Electric study to the release fraction determination (50-397/9815-04).
In 1996, the licensee submitted Letter GO2-96-199, "Request for Amendment to
Secondary Containment and Standby Gas Treatment System Technical Specifications,"
dated October 15, 1996. This amendment had not been approved by the NRC at the
time of the inspection.
The proposed change would increase the allowable secondary
containment bypass leakage from 0.74 scfh to 18 scfh. This change was based on
analyses that have shown that the offsite and control room doses would remain within the
limits of 10 CFR Part 100 guidelines and the 10 CFR Part 50,.Appendix A, General
Design Criteria 19 limits. The licensee stated that the analyses did not specifically
address liquid leakage.
Conclusions
With the exception of valve leakage testing, testing of the HPCS system mechanical
components was consistent with the applicable licensing, design, and operations
documents.
This testing was sufficient to verify the capability of the mechanical
equipment to perform its required functions under accident conditions.
With regard to valve leakage testing, the licensee identified several liquid secondary
containment bypass leakage paths in 1989 and was proactive in addressing the effect of
these paths on the design basis by establishing a reduced total gaseous bypass leakage
limit. However, the licensee did not effectively implement the design controls required to
recognize the valve leakage testing requirements associated
with assigning valve
specific leakage limits. In addition, the calculation method used to determine the
equivalence between airborne and liquid bypass leakage was not well documented and
was in error.
-22-
Based on the results of an informal analysis performed by the licensee during this
inspection and the licensee's statement that the FSAR willbe revised to eliminate valve
specific leakage limits for these liquid bypass leakage paths from the design basis, the
licensee's position that an IST classification of Category A was not applicable to the
valves required to isolate the liquid bypass leakage paths was found to be appropriate.
However, the team did not verify the applicability of the calculation method for
determining the Iodine release fraction used in this informal analysis during the
inspection.
This release fraction had a significant effect on the analysis results.
This
item is unresolved pending completion of NRC review of the applicability of this
calculation method.

The team reviewed the capability of the HPCS standby service water system to provide
an adequate cooling water supply to the Division 3 Diesel Generator Heat Exchanger
DCW-HX-1C, the Division 3 Diesel Generator room Cooling Coils DMA-CC-31 and 32,
and the HPCS pump room cooling Coils RRA-CC-4. The historical thermal performance
monitoring data for the Division 3 Diesel Generator Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C was
reviewed in detail.
Observations and Findin s
A summary of the historical thermal performance monitoring data for the Division 3
Diesel Generator Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C from 1990 through 1998 indicated that
the heat exchanger performance had been maintained at or above 40 percent of the
design heat transfer coefficient value for this heat exchanger.
This thermal performance
monitoring data had been obtained and evaluated in accordance
with Test Procedure
8.4.63, "Thermal Performance Monitoring of DCW-HX-1C," Revision 5.
Calculation ME-02-92-242, "DCW-HX-1C Performance Evaluation," Revision 0, specified
that an o:"..-"-IIheat transfer coefficient of at least 208 BTU/(hrft'), which was
40 percent of the design value of 520 BTU/(hrft'), was required to ensure acceptable
thermal performance under accident conditions. The team's review of this calculation
indicated that this 40 percent acceptance
criterion was developed in Calculation
ME-02-92-0243, "DCW-HX-1C Design Performance Requirements," Revision 0, and was
based on a design HPCS standby service water flow of 910 gpm to Heat Exchanger
DCW-HX-1C. The team noted that heat transfer was affected by fouling and flow.
Flow balance test Surveillance Procedure OSP-SW-M103, "HPCS Service Water
Valve Position Verification," Revision 2, allowed an acceptable flow range of 780 gpm
to 960 gpm to Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C. The purpose of Surveillance
Procedure OSP-SW-M103 was to demonstrate the operability of the HPCS standby
service water system per Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.7.2.1. The
licensee stated that the minimum acceptable flowvalue of 780 gpm was consistent with
FSAR Table 9.2-5, "Standby Service Water Flow Rates and Associated Heat Loads Used
in the Ultimate Heat Sink Analysis."
-23-
The team asked the licensee to determine if the minimum acceptable flow of 780 gpm
allowed by Surveillance Procedure OSP-SW-M103 was less conservative than the flow
value of 910 gpm assumed
in Calculation ME-02-92-243 to develop the 40 percent heat
transfer acceptance
criterion.
In response
to this question, the licensee determined that
the criterion was nonconservative and issued Problem Evaluation Report 298-0959,
"DCW-HX-1CThermal Performance Monitoring Acceptance Criteria was
Non-conservative," dated July 30, 1998. This problem evaluation request determined
that Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C, Diesel Generator DG-3, and the HPCS service water
system were all operable because
Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C had been cleaned in
April 1996 and subsequent
performance monitoring data had shown sufficient margin to
ensure operability.
In addition, the licensee reviewed the calculations and procedures. for
the remaining diesel generator heat exchangers
and the RHR heat exchanger and found
the acceptance
criterion was correctly developed for these heat exchangers.
On August 10, 1998, the licensee provided the latest version of Problem Evaluation
Report 298-0959, which documented their reportability evaluation.
Based on a reanalysis
of past thermal performance and operating data for Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C, the
licensee determined that the heat exchanger had been capable of performing its design
function at all times since performance monitoring began in 1990 and; therefore, the
condition was not reportable.
The problem evaluation report also included the licensee's
plans for correcting the test acceptance
criterion in Procedure PPM 8.4.63 prior to the
next performance of the thermal performance test for Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control" states that a test program shall
be established to assure that all testing required to demonstrate that structures, systems,
and components willperform satisfactorily in service was identified and performed in
accordance with written test procedures, which incorporate the requirements and
acceptance
limits contained in applicable design documents.
The 40 percent acceptance
criterion specified in Calculation MWE-02-92-242 and developed in Calculation
MWE-02-92-243 was not correctly determined from applicable design documents and as
a result the thermal performance test did not assure that Heat Exchanger DCW-HX-1C
would perform satisfactorily in service for all allowed HPCS standby service water flows.
The failure to correctly develop the acceptar.": criterion from design c
umentation is a
violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI (50-397/9815-05).
The team determined that this inspection report adequately described the reasons for the
violation, and the actions taken to correct and prevent recurrence of the violation.
Therefore, no response to this violation is required.
Conclusions
The team concluded that, with the exception of the required flowfor Heat Exchanger
DCW-HX-1C, testing of the HPCS standby service water system demonstrated
that the
system was capable of providing an adequate cooling water supply to support operation
of the HPCS system.
With regard to thermal performance testing of Division 3 Diesel Generator Heat
Exchanger DCW-HX-1C, the licensee failed to effectively implement the test program
control required to assure that the acceptance
criteria of a surveillance test was valid for
-24-
all expected HPCS standby service water flows. This was determined to be a violation of
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 8, Criterion. XI, "Test Control." The licensee determined that
the HPCS standby service water system and associated
equipment were operable at all
times since performance monitoring began in 1990.

Division 3 Battery and Battery Charger Load Calculation
i
The team reviewed Calculation E/l-02-85-02,"High Pressure Core Spray Battery and
Battery Charger," Revision 1, to evaluate the ability of the Division 3 battery to perform in
accordance with its design accident load profile. The licensee had clearly established the
size of all loads supplied by the battery, except two: the inrush current for spring
charging motors of 4 kV breakers and the field flash current for Division 3 Diesel
Generator.
The licensee was not able to directly determine the size of these loads, so
-25-
they estimated their size, based on a combination of information from the nuclear steam
supply system vendor, alternative, calculations, and a review of data for comparable
equipment.
Considering the overall margin in the battery, this level of confirmation was
acceptable.
Division 3 Battery Testing
The team reviewed the Performance Test Procedure ESP-B1DG3-F101
and the Service
Test Procedure 7.4.8.2.1.19 for the Division 3 battery and determined that the licensee
had elected to perform the performance test in lieu of the service test.
However, the
team noted that the performance test was not modified to envelope the service test
during the initial minute of the battery's accident load profile as required by Technical
Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.8.4.7.
In response to that concern, the licensee determined that the current performance tests
for not only the Division 3 battery, but for the Division 1 and 2 Batteries E-B1-1 and
E-B2-1 were also conducted in lieu of their respective service tests on April30, 1998,
May 12, 1998, and April30, 1997 respectively.
Since the performance tests were not
modified to envelope the service test, the licensee now had to rely exclusively on the last
service test for each of the three Class 1E batteries in order to determine their readiness
for performance during an accident.
The licensee determined that the last service tests for Division 1, 2, and 3 batteries were
performed on April 19. 1996, April28, 1995, and May 9, 1996. Technical Specification 3.0.2 requires the next surveillance test to be performed at 1.25 times the
interval stated in the technical specifications.
Applying that criteria, the last service tests
for each of the Division 1,2, and 3 batteries would expire on October 22, 1998,
October 28, 1997, and November 19, 1998. The licensed determined that only the
service test for Division 2 Battery E-B1-2 had expired prior to the perforrriance of a
qualified service test or its equivalent.
The failure to perform a surveillance test that met
the requirements of Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.8.4.7 for
Division 2 Battery E-B1-2 within 1.25 times the specified frequency of 24 months (prior to
October 28, 1997) is a violation of Technical Specification 3.0.2 (50-397/9815-06).
. The licensee informed the NRC of the expired tests on July 14, 1998, and asked for and
was verbally granted a Notice of Enforcement Discretion on July 15, 1998, that permitted
the licensee to delay taking any required actions until a technical specification
amendment was approved.
This allowed the licensee to wait until the R-14 refueling
outage or an earlier outage of sufficient duration in order to perform a qualified service
test for that battery.
Problem Evaluation Report 298-0887 was initiated to document this concern and identify
all related corrective actions to be undertaken.
On August 17, 1998, the licensee
submitted Licensee Event Report (LER) 50-397/98-01 2-00, which discussed reportable
corrective action taken, and action taken to preclude recurrence.
The team determined that the LER, in combination with this inspection report, adequately
describes the reasons for the violation, and the actions taken to correct and prevent
-26-
I
recurrence of the violation. Therefore, the licensee was not required to respond to this
violation.
Conclusions
The team confirmed the capacity of the Division 3 battery to perform its intended safety
function and identified that the licensee had inappropriately credited a battery
performance test for a service test.
However, the previous service test had been
conducted within the allowed frequency.
During their review to identify other similar
problems, the licensee identified that they had exceeded the allowed surveillance test
frequency specified in Technical Specification 3.0.2 for the Division 2 Battery E-B1-2, a
violation of NRC requirements. The team concluded that the licensee's extent of
condition review was effective.

The licensee initiated Problem Evaluation Report 298-0407 on April 21, 1998. The
problem evaluation report concluded that no inspections of the pumps were required at
the time and that inspection of pump Nos. RHR-P-2A or 2B would be placed on the
5-year plan.
In addition, a corrective action plan to inspect and/or replace the suction

The NRC identified three examples of a 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI
violation. The licensee characterized the examples as either failure to promptly identify a
condition adverse to quality or failure to fullyimplement corrective actions in a timely
manner.
The licensee attributed the violation to management
not properly enforcing their
expectations regarding timely identification and completion of corrective actions.
In
addition, the licensee stated that inadequate work management
methods contributed to
the untimely implementation of corrective actions.

The licensee agreed that it misapplied generic technical guidance in downgrading the
- RCIC system and had failed to identify an unreviewed safety question.
During this
inspection, the team confirmed that Work Order KKB9, Task 01, completed the
replacement of RCIC turbine exhaust rupture discs, the last pertinent components
requiring upgrade.
The licensee also reviewed past safety evaluations to identify similar violations. This
review was documented
in "Review of Approved 50.59 Safety Evaluations For the Use of
Generic Guidance" dated 3/16/98. The licensee reviewed 911 safety evaluation
summaries and 101 safety evaluations in order to determine if generic guidance
appropriately applied. -The licensee also revised Procedure PPM 1.3.43, "Licensing
-29-
Basis Impact Determinations," Revision 13, to clarify guidance for use and interpretation
of generic documents and included this event in the licensing basis impact training
outline for safety evaluation preparers and reviewers.
This program upgrade was
reviewed in NRC Inspection Report 50-397/98-13 and found to be satisfactory.
Based on
a review of the completed corrective actions, the team concluded that this violation was
being properly addressed.

~Back round
On April 23, 1998,
a licensee engineering-review showed that discharge-to-radwaste
Valve RHR-V-40 would not close upon receiving a manual close or isolation signal when
throttled less then 13 percent open.
This configuration was in conflict with the RHR
system description as stated in the FSAR.
This four-inch motor-operated valve was used to throttle flow rate to radwaste from the
suppression
pool during normal operation and to initiate RHR, Loop B, shutdown cooling
during shutdown.
The valve provided a close safety function for secondary containment
isolation and emergency cooling system lineup.
The LER documented several planned actions to correct the design deficiency and to
prevent a recurrence of this type of problem for another valve.
b.
Ins ection Followu
The team verified that the licensee completed the corrective action identified in the LER.
The LER stated that the safety consequences
of the design deficiency were minimal
because
the safety function is to close, the valve is normally closed, and the valve was in
series with Valve RHR-V-49 that was unaffected by the design flaw. The probability of
occurrence of Valve RHR-V-40 being open less than 13 percent coincident with a failure
of Valve RHR-V-49 was very low. The team;;.-
ed with the licensee's conclusion that
the safety consequences
of the design deficiency were minimal.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," states,
in part, that measures
shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design
basis, as defined in g 50.2 and as specified in the license application, are correctly
translated into specifications, drawings, procedures,
and instructions.
FSAR Figure 7.3-14C included a wiring drawing for Valve RHR-V-40 that indicated that
the valve would close as required upon initiation of an isolation signal. This design was
not correctly translated into GE Functional Control Diagram CVI- 02E12-04.3.3,
-30-
Revision 8.
As a result, Valve RHR-V-40 would not have closed or auto-closed if it was
throttled open to between 9 to 13,percent.
The failure to correctly translate the design
specified in a license application into drawings is a violation of 10 CFR Part 50,
Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control." The licensee properly identified and corrected
this violation. This non-repetitive, licensee-identified, and corrected violation is being
treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section VII.B.1 of the NRC Enforcement
~Polic
(50-397/9815-07).

Item 50-397/9713-04:
Potentialfor NumerousCalculation
Modification Records to Affect Technical Content of Calculations.
Back<around
Calculation modification records were developed to postpone a calculation's revision until
several design changes could be processed at one time. In NRC Inspection Report 50-
397/96-201, the NRC reviewed Engineering Directorate Manual 2.15, "Preparation,
Verification and Approval of Calculations," Revision 2, and noted that the procedure
recommended that calculations be revised if five or more calculation modification records
were outstanding against a calculation. The NRC found evidence that three sampled
calculations had more than five calculation modification records outstanding and opened
Unresolved Item 50-397/96201-16.
The NRC conducted a followup of the unresolved item and determined that the licensee's
activities were in accordance with Procedure 2.15, in effect at the time, in that
management approval was obtained when more than five calculation modification
records were applied to a specific calculation. The inspectors also found that, as the
result of this NRC finding, the licensee had strengthened
informal management
expectations for calculation modification record control and had established an
engineering team to self-assess
their calculation process and controls. The inspectors
reviewed this self-assessment,
which was completed on October 16, 1997. The
inspectors noted that while the assessment
identified numerous problems with the
retrieving and handling of calculations and with Procedure 2.15, it did not determine, if it
was necc".""p to verify the technical impact of the numerous calculation modification
records on the content of the existing calculations.
The NRC reviewed a listing of calculations dated July 3, 1997, and found that 45
calculations had more than 5 calculation modification records.
The NRC planned further
inspection to evaluate the technical impact of an excessive number of calculation
modification records.
Ins ection Followu
The team found that in April 1998, the licensee implemented a prioritized plan to reduce
the number of calculations with more than 5 calculation modification records from 45 to
13 by July 1999. The licensee stated that the remaining 13 calculations with more than
five calculation modification records would be further reduced once the initial goal was
attained.
-31-
e
HPCS Setpoint Calculation Modification Records
To assess
the technical impact of multiple calculation modification records, the team
reviewed the twelve unincorporated (plant implemented status) calculation modification
records against various HPCS setpoint calculations.
The team identified administrative
and document control problems with four of them (Calculation Modification Records
92-0260, 92-0503, 92-0506, and 92-0546).
In the worst case, these document control
problems resulted in having two calculations of record with different setpoints for the
Level 1 reactor vessel emergency core cooling system level switches and for the starting
control for diesel driven air Compressor DSA-C-2C. However, the team did not find any
evidence that these errors resulted in a plant procedure or hardware error. The licensee
agreed to correct the administrative errors. These failures constitutes a violation of minor
significance and are not subject to formal enforcement action.
Electrical Load Tally Calculation Modification Records
The team also reviewed calculation modification records associated with six calculations
that analyze the loading on medium voltage and low voltage ac buses and one
calculation for each of the three dc divisions that documented a similar analysis for the
loads on the dc buses.
The team found that the licensee used the calculation
modification record process to track the addition of electrical loads to the busses.
Procedure EDP 2.15, "Preparation, Verification and Approval of Calculations,"
Revision 3, Step 4.5.5 stated that, "The CMR [calculation modification record] shall be
prepared against the latest revision of the calculation and all outstanding CMRs against
the calculation shall be considered.
The pertinent outstanding CMRs, which could affect
the results/conclusions,
shall be identified and accounted for in the CMR."
The team found that, in general, the licensee was not specifically identifying the pertinent
outstanding calculation modification records as required by Procedure EDP 2.15. The
licensee was only recording that all CMRs for the particular CMR have been reviewed.
To ensure that the intent of Procedure EDP 2.15 was implemented, the licensee
established an informal computer-based
sy".em to track electrical loa 'dditions to the
various electrical busses evaluated in Calculation E/l-02-90-01, "LowVoltage Systems
Loading and Voltage Calculations, " Revision 4.
The team requested that the licensee review a selection of calculation modification
records for Calculation E/l-02-90-01 to determine if the calculation's working file
adequately addressed
the bus loading. The licensee sampled 63 calculation modification
records and determined that the calculation working file was not properly updated for the
load additions described in the following three calculation modification records:
CMR 92-0453, which increased the load amps on Panel PP-7A-A, circuit 18 by
.04 amps;
CMR 92-0489, which added a new load of 7.38 amps on Panel PP-8A-C-A; and
-32-
CMR 97-0173, which increased the load amps on motor control center MC-8A for
SW-V-12B from 5.75 amps to 5.9 amps.
The team concluded that use of the working file to track loads, did not meet the intent of
EDP 2.15, Step 4.5.5, because
all outstanding calculation modification records were not
identified.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and Drawings,"
states, in part, "Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions,
procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be
accomplished
in accordance with these instructions." The team concluded that the
licensee did not adhere to the requirements of Procedure EDP 2.15 in that the loads in all
outstanding CMRs related to Calculation E/I-02-90-01 were not identified and accounted
for. This failure is considered to be another example of a violation of 10 CFR Part 50,
Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures,
and Drawings," (50-397/9815-02).
Subsequently, the licensee added the loads described in these calculation modification
records to the working file load tally and concluded that the affected motor control
centers still met the acceptance
criteria of the load calculation. The licensee also
informed the team that, as a conservative practice, load deletions were not included in
the working file, making the'working file estimate conservative.
The licensee stated that they plan to develop written guidance for administering the
~
working files.
The team concluded that use of numerous calculation records in lieu of making a formal
revision to Calculation E/I-02-90-01 did affect the technical content of the calculation.
However, the team also concluded that the licensee's working file process would
adequately control load additions, if rigorously followed.

Status of Fire Protection Facilities and Equipment (64704)
Ins ection Sco
e
The team conducted a fire protection equipment walk down with licensee personnel,
interviewed fire brigade personnel, and conducted an independent walk down of selected
areas to verify proper installation, operability, and maintenance of fire protection system
and equipment.
In addition, the team witnessed a fire drill conducted on the evening of
July 29, 1998.
The team also reviewed 27 fire protection system surveillance procedures to determine if
the fire protection equipment was being properly tested.
The team reviewed the content
-33-
of these procedures and the frequency at which they were perfoimed to ensure that the
fire detection and suppression systems were tested in accordance with technical
specification requirements.
In addition, the team reviewed fire protection modifications to
ensure that the fire protection equipment was being properly maintained and upgraded
as needed.
b.
Observations and Findin s
The team's review of the fire protection system surveillances indicated that the licensee
conducted the surveillances in accordance with their procedures and initiated appropriate
work order tasks for any problems or discrepancies
noted.
The team noted that the
surveillance procedures were consistent with technical specification requirements and
performance frequencies. The team noted no discrepancies
in the review of these
surveillance procedures.
The team reviewed four fire protection modifications to assess
the licensee's ability to
maintain and upgrade the fire protection equipment over time. The following four
modifications were reviewed:
~
Technical Evaluation Report 94-0348, Revision 0, which installed a hanger to
steady fire protection line at FP-V-642.
~
Installation of muffler on Diesel Fire Pump
1, via Work Order Task ZP7401.
~
Plant Modification Record 91-0379, Revision 0, Delete the Reactor Water
Cleanup Room Fire Detection Sensors.
Plant Modification Record 89-0427, Revision 0, Addition of Manual Pull Station in
Service Building, Machine Shop.
Based on this review and a review of post modification test activities, the team concluded
that the licensee was properly maintaining and upgrading the fire protection equipment.
The team interviewed several members of the licensee's fire brigade and found them to
be knowledgeable in fire protection, fire fighting, and safe shutdown activities. The
licensee's fire brigade consisted of a qualified fire brigade leader and at least four
additional qualified fire brigade members on-site at all times. The team noted that the
fire brigade was not included in the minimum shift crew complement required for unit
shutdown.
During the interviews, the fire brigade members informed the team that they
maintained their medical certification by attending a yearly .nedical examination.
The
team considered the scheduling of these physical examinations was proactive in that fire
brigade members were notified 45 days to 60 days prior to the examination date.
Any
fire brigade member who missed this examination was removed from the fire brigade
until the medical examination was conducted.
Fire brigade members were required to participate in at least two fire drills each year.
The team noted, during the records review, that the members participated in more than
two fire drills each year. The team observed one fire drill conducted on the evening of
July 29, 1998. The fire drill was conducted and monitored by fire protection personnel,
-34-
including the fire marshall.
The team observed that the fire brigade was fullycapable of
mitigating the fire. The team observed a critique after the fire drill, conducted by the fire
marshall.
Based on these observations,
the team determined that the fire drill was
satisfactory and provided confidence that the fire brigade was properly trained.
The team reviewed the fire brigade training records on seven individuals who were
currently qualified on the fire brigade.
The team noted that these training records were
complete and accurate.
The team conducted a walk down with the licensee of the essential fire fighting systems
consisting of the fire pumps, piping systems, fire hose stations, fire detection systems,
and fire barriers.
During this walk down, the team noted that all fire pumps were
.
operable, piping systems were painted and maintained in good condition, and that the fire
hose stations were fullyoperable with tools attached for opening valves and attaching
hoses.
In addition, the team determined that the fire detection systems and fire barriers
were operable.
The team also conducted an independent walk down of selected areas
in the plant, including the Division 2 Diesel Generator room. The team determined that
fire extinguishers were inspected, charged, and pressurized for use and that transient
combustibles were adequately controlled. The team noted that the fire detectors were
operable and being properly maintained via surveillance procedures.
Qs
The NRC issued a Confirmatory Order modifying the WNP-2 License on March 25, 1998.
This Confirmatory Order requires'that Thermo-Lag barrier modifications be completed
during the R14 refueling outage (Spring 1999) and that all modification package closeout
be completed by December 1999. The licensee stated that the Thermo-Lag Reduction
effort was not currently on schedule and were considering means to assure that the order
requirements were met.
Conclusions
The team concluded that fire equipment was being properly tested at the required
frequencies.
No discrepancies were noted during a walk down of the fire protection
system.
Fire pumps, piping systems, and fire hose stations were being properly
maintained.
Fire detection systems were in service and fire extinguishers were being
inspected and maintained ready for operation.
Fire hose stations were also properly
equipped and ready for use.
The team also concluded that the fire protection equipment
was being upgraded as necessary.
The fire brigade was properly trained and qualified to perform fire fighting, and the annual
medical examination requirement was being met.

Fire Protection Procedures and Documentation (64704)
Ins ection Sco
e
The team reviewed procedures and documentation related to the fire protection program
to evaluate the overall adequacy and implementation of the licensee's
Fire Protection
-35-
Program.
This review included seven procedures related to the licensee's approved Fire
Protection Program.
Observations and Findin s
The team reviewed procedures concerning the fire protection program implementation
including control of transient combustibles, control of ignition sources, plant fire
protection program implementation, and fire barrier impairment.
The introduction of transient combustibles into plant areas during routine operation and
maintenance
activities and the storage of combustibles in plant areas were governed by
Procedure 1.3.10C, "Control of Transient Combustibles," Revision 0. This procedure
delineated the responsibilities and procedural guidance for general combustible material
control criteria, initiating transient combustible (TC) permits, extending TC permits, and
clearing the TC permits. The team determined that this procedure was comprehensive
for controlling transient combustibles.
The installation of permanent combustible
materials was controlled by the design control process.
The team determined that the control of ignition sources was governed by
Procedure 1.3.10A, "Control of Ignition Sources," Revision 3. This proc'edure delineated
the responsibilities and guidelines for the use of ignition sources.
The team noted that
the requirements for the uses of ignition sources were comprehensive.
For example, the
procedure identified what situations required a fire watch assignment,
ensured that fire
protection system impairments would be closed upon work completion, and ensured that
a final inspection of the work area was performed upon termination of the fire watch and
ignition source permit.
Conclusions
The team concluded that the fire protection program procedures were comprehensive
in
detailing the requirements for transient combustibles, barrier impairments, and control of
ignition sources.
Quality Assurance in Fire Protection Activities (64704)
Ins ection Sco
e 64704
The team reviewed the licensee's Quality Assurance activities in the fire protection
program.
These activities included the performance of periodic fire prevention/protection
audits, the identification and resolution of fire protection discrepancies,
the review of fire
system/equipment
changes and alterations, and the review of periodic surveillance
activities to ensure that they were being conducted as required by the fire protection
program.
The team reviewed two periodic audits conducted by the Quality Assurance Department.
These were the 1998 Annual Fire Protection Audit and the 1997 Annual-Biennial-
Triennial Audit.
-36-
'bservations
and Findin s
The team reviewed the 1998 Annual Fire Protection Audit conducted during March 16
through March 31, 1998. This audit concluded that the fire protection program was being
adequately implemented to meet the requirements and assure safety of the plant and
personnel.
The audit determined that the corrective actions taken with respect to fire
protection related problems were evaluated and noted to be effective in preventing
significant adverse trends.
The fire fighting and protection training were judged to be
adequate.
The team agreed with the 1998 Annual Audit findings. The team determined that the
corrective action program with respect to fire protection was notable in that it prevented
the recurrence of events.
The audit determined that 65 problem evaluation requests
were identified since January 1997 for fire protection issues.
The audit then categorized
the problem evaluation reports into groups of common problem types and reviewed them
for increasing trends in the number and severity. The audit determined that there were
no adverse trends.
During the audit review of problem evaluation reports, the licensee identified that several
open corrective action items were over 1-year old. A detailed review of these older
actions determined that the safety of the plant was not being compromised because of
the age of these items. The licensee determined that the these items were in two
categories:
(1) equipment replacements
being done on a planned schedule and
(2) enhancements
and clarifications to documentation.
The audit determined that an
average of three extensions had been, granted with the oldest action item nearly 3 years
old. The Quality Assurance Department initiated a Quality Recommendation 298-013-A
to review the timeliness of open corrective actions.
The fire protection manager reviewed
the current list of fire protection corrective actions and provided a justification for each
item. This review indicated that the scheduled dates were appropriate and that the risk
of problem recurrence was negligible.
The team reviewed Quality Recommendation 298-013-A and the fire protection
manager's response and determined that this action was appropriate.
The audit also included an assessment
of the fire fighting and fire brigade training
program and concluded that the training was adequate with no programmatic
deficiencies.
The most significant issue identified was that the fire brigade had not been
recently trained on rope signals, hand signals, or shoulder tapping. The Quality
Assurance Department issued Quality Recommendation 298-013-B, which
recommended
the addition of communications in fire brigade training.
In response to this issue, the fire department training manager revised the training lesson
plans, classroom, and practical exercise training to include communications.
The team
verified that the revised training had included the use of communication skills.
The team reviewed the 1997 Annual-Biennial-Triennial Fire Protection Audit conducted
May 22 through June 12, 1997, and determined that it was comprehensive
and that it
satisfied the requirements for assessing
fire protection equipment and program
-37-
implementation requirements.
The team agreed with the 1997 audit's findings.
The
1997 audit identified strengths in the following areas:
The training and commitment of fire protection personnel,
The fire penetration seal program,
Implementation and control of fire watch tours,
Material condition of the fire fighting equipment, and
Use of an independent consultant to conduct the fire program self assessment.
c.
Conclusions
The team concluded that both Quality Assurance audits were comprehensive and
satisfied the requirements for assessing
fire protection equipment and program
implementation requirements.
The team agreed with the findings and recommendations
of both audits.
Several strengths identified in the 1997 audit by the licensee were
confirmed by the team during this inspection, especially fire personnel knowledge and
skill, and excellent material condition of the fire fighting equipment.
V. Management Meetings
X1
Exit Meeting Summary
The team met with licensee representatives
on July 31, 1998, to conduct an exit
interview. During this meeting, the team leader noted that team personnel had reviewed
proprietary documentation during the course of the inspection.
Proprietary
documentation was not divulged in this report.
The licensee acknowledged the team's findings.
