1.0 Introduction and Overview 1.1 Purpose The Cook Nuclear Plant Restart Plan describes the activities and controls that will be implemented to ensure the facilityis ready to safely start up and operate in an event &ee manner. To provide us with the assurance that this can be accomplished we must determine that our people, plant and programs are ready to meet this challenge.
The plan willassess these areas and identify any needed action to ensure we can safely startup and operate reliably in an event &ee manner.
The plan willassess the following:
~
People Have we adequately prepared our people such that they are trained on the changes in our programs and procedures and understand the issues involved in restarting and operating the plant? Are the functional areas staffed, organized and functioning at a level to support safe startup and reliable operation in an event &ee manner?
~ 'rograms Have our programs and procedures been adjusted to include the lessons learned?
Are they adequate to allow us to return to operation and prevent future nonconforming conditions?
o Plant Are our materiel condition, configurations, restart. readiness ofsystems and ability to meet design function while complying with applicable regulations adequate to allow us to return to service?
This plan provides a map to conduct the assessments needed to assure ourselves that we are ready to restart.
The actions and activities needed to do this and any corrective actions willbe performed in accordance with approved procedures.
1.2 Background
During the July - September, 1997, time&arne, the NRC conducted an architect engineering inspection at Cook Nuclear Plant. The AE inspection focused primarily on two safety systems, ECCS and CCW. Six weeks into the AE inspection, a question surfaced regarding our ability to sustain long-term cooling of the core during a design basis accident. As a conservative measure, both units were shut down on September 9 and cooled to cold shut down until this question could be properly answered.
On September 12, the NRC concluded the AE inspection with a public exit
. meeting. Following this meeting, Cook Nuclear Plant committed to addressing and resolving seven (7) specific issues identified during the inspection prior to restart of the units. Itwas believed that these seven issues could be resolved withina few weeks.
Subsequent to our letter to the NRC committing to these actions, the NRC issued a confirmatory action letter (CAL)identifying their approval would be required prior to restarting the units. The NRC CALalso identified two additional actions to be taken as a condition for restarting the units.
The unit 2 reactor was scheduled for a refueling to begin in late September, 1997.
The unit 2 core was withintwo weeks ofnormal burn up window at the time ofthe unscheduled shut down. Our objective was to resolve the CALitems, and restart unit 2 forthe remaining two weeks offuel burn up, then commence the refueling outage.
Over the next several weeks, itbecame apparent that a restart would not be achievable in the near term, and a decision was made to begin the unit 2 refueling outage and its scheduled work on October 20, 1997. In parallel withthe outage work, our organization worked through the many AE inspection/CAL issues. It appeared that a January 1998 restart ofboth units would be feasible.
During the time period ofJanuary - February 1998, the Cook Nuclear Plant senior management team had several meetings withthe NRC, and the CALissues were nearing resolution. It was during this time period that several new issues arose, concerning or relating to our containment systems that would require significant resources and focus to reconcile.
Given the significant period that both units had been shut down up to this point, and the uncertainty for a near-term start up date, itwas decided that the scope ofboth units'utages needed to be re-evaluated, and a more rigorous assessment ofplant readiness was required prior to any restart. These steps are necessary in order to achieve the objectives described in Section 1.1. The key factors that led to this decision are:
Design basis concerns and equipment performance and testing issues which have come to light in recent months raised the concern that additional hardware and non-hardware activities may need to be completed during this extended shut down.
Confirmation is required that procedure inadequacies or equipment deficiencies that may challenge plant operators during normal, abnormal, or emergency conditions have been adequately identified and addressed.
Lessons learned &om other nuclear utilities in the implementation ofan integrated assessment ofreadiness to restart followingan extended shutdown
period are being adopted and applied to Cook Nuclear Plant on a pilot basis during this outage.

2.0 Restart Work Scope Determination 2.1 Restart Work Scope Determination Process The restart work scope is being defined through a determination process driven by the ROC consistent with their charter. Outstanding work items and selected progranunatic issues are reviewed against defined criteria to determine which items should be included in the restart scope.
System engineers have the largest role in this process, but there is also considerable involvement from other organizations including operations, design engineering, and maintenance.
The restart work scope determination process is outlined in attachment E..
2.2 Plant System Review Plant systems are reviewed by the system engineer using the plant system review instructions with results and recommendations presented to the ROC.
The plant system review process consists offourprimlyelements as described below.
2.2,1 Selection ofPlant Systems Plant systems have been selected for a detailed review and affirmation based on the historical performance and risk significance ofthe system.
This review willbe performed in accordance withthe plant system readiness review instructions. Results ofthe assessment ofselected systems willbe presented first to the SERB and, upon approval, to the ROC with appropriate recommendations for additional actions'o be performed after restart. The systems are listed in attachment D.
The remaining systems willbe assessed and evaluated as part ofthe line responsibility ofthe engineering organization through the use ofthe SERB.
Issues that affect restart scope on these systems willbe presented to the ROC on a case basis.
2.2.2 Restart Work Scope Additions The restart work scope addition forplant systems is focused on those items not already included in the restart work scope.
Items already scheduled for completion prior to restart are not evaluated against the criteria provided in attachment C unless there is a proposal to delete them. The goal ofthe system review and work scope addition process is to define'the work necessary for completion prior to restart such that the system is capable of supporting safe and reliable power operation. This review willinclude the following:
10
(a)
(c) the magnitude, significance and risk ofitems which willbe resolved aAer restart should be defined and evaluated; assurance that recurring problems on the system that could affect safe and reliable operations are being fixed; assurance that any design basis and licensing issues on the system are being addressed within a time frame that is appropriate for the issue; and assurance that operators willnot be unnecessarily challenged in the operation ofthe system during normal, abnormal, or emergency conditions.
Based on the review ofopen work items against the criteria presented in attachment C, the system engineer is to provide recommendations for the restart scope changes for the selected systems in attachment D to the SERB and upon approval to the ROC. Items recommended for addition to the restart scope forremaining plant systems willbe handled on an item specific basis by the ROC followingan initialreview by line management.
Itshould be noted that. itwas not the intent ofthis program to resolve all design basis issues.
We are committed to a long range program to accomplish this resolution.
2.2.3 Monitoring Restart Work, Addressing Emergent Issues and Performing a More Detailed Assessment ofSystem Readiness System engineering is to monitor the progress ofwork on assigned system and address emergent issues as required. Anymajor restart scope impacts defined by emergent issues should be brought to the ROC followingline management review. Allother emergent issues are assessed daily by the engineering managers.
Also, the system engineer is to use this period to complete the assessment and evaluation ofsystem readiness in preparation for the final system readiness review and affirmationofreadiness for restart.
2.2.4 Final System Readiness Review and Affirmation This aspect ofthe system readiness review process is summarized in section 4.1. Although it is not expected that any significant restart work scope issues willbe identified during this final review, ifany are identified, they are to be brought to the immediate attention ofthe ROC (followingline management review).
11
2.3 Redefined Restart Work Scope The restart work scope may be redefined based on the evaluation process described above. Decisions made by,the ROC regarding the restart work scope are documented in meeting minutes and work item status is tracked.
3.0 Restart Work Scope Performance 3.1 Work Scope Performance Following determination ofthe restart work scope by the ROC, the restart manager is responsible for coordinating the planning, scheduling and completion ofthe work, including the implementation ofprograinmatic changes.
The restart work scope performance process is outlined in attachment E.
4.0 Restart Readiness Assessment
'he restart ieadiness assessment is an integrated line management assessment that assists station management in determining the readiness to initiate startup and achieve safe, reliable power operation through the next operating cycle. The restart readiness assessment process is outlined in attachment E, This form ofassessment is one element ofa comprehensive plant assessment program that is the foundation ofour continuous improvement philosophy. Implementation ofthis action is consistent with the experience and lessons learned ofother nuclear utilities. The restart readiness assessment is being implemented at Cook Nuclear Plant based on lessons learned and willbe captured such that this process can be implemented on a routine basis in the future.
The restart readiness assessment for restart willverifythe completion ofall defined restart work and the affirmation ofsystem, department and restart readiness for startup and power operations.
Results ofthe assessment and afBrmation ofreadiness willbe presented to the ROC by the responsible system engineer, functional area manager and operations shift supervisor.
- Following acceptance by the ROC, the site vice president willconvene an SMRT meeting to review these affirmations and verify compliance with regulatory commitments and any other applicable criteria. The site vice president willrecommend start up ofthe units based on this review, and assurance regarding the readiness ofthe station to initiate startup and safely, reliably operate through the next operating cycle.
Following is a summary ofthe key elements ofthe program.
4.1 System Readiness System readiness affirmations by the system engineer are to confirm that plant systems meet functional design requirements, have been suitably tested and are ready to support safe and reliable startup and operation through the next cycle. This afIirmation is based on the work completed as described in section 2.2, and is to 12
include a coordinated system walkdown ofthe system with operations and maintenance personnel on systems defined by the plant engineering manager.
Where necessary, compensatory actions for rescheduled work or other areas of performance risk are to be defined and addressed.
System readiness affirmations are to be presented by the system engineer to the SERB and upon its approval to the ROC forthe systems identified in attachment D.
Affirmationofsystem readiness is documented with the signature ofthe system engineer and manager.
Affirmationofindividual system readiness for the remaining plant systems willbe addressed as part ofthe system engineering line management responsibility and willbe one element ofthe functional area readiness evaluation.
4.2 Functional Area Readiness r
Functional area readiness by selected functional areas is an affirmation that the department is in an appropriate state ofreadiness to support startup and safe and reliable power operation through the next cycle. Functional area readiness will include items such as:
(a)
(c)
(d) adequacy ofstaffing levels, personnel experience and qualifications to demonstrate compliance withregulatory requirements and commitments; completion ofpersonnel training on normal startup evaluations, power ascension requirements, industry operating experience including extended shutdown and unusual events at similar plants, emergency preparedness, changes in plant configuration, changes in plant operating and emergency procedures, and changes in key adininistrative procedures and processes; resolution ofsignificant performance deficiencies and reduction of backlogs (corrective action, corrective maintenance etc. ) to manageable levels; and establishment ofgoals and priorities for the continued improvement ofthe department including use ofcritical assessment methods.
