FLORIDA POWER
AND LIGHT COMPANY (FP&L)
TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 3
AND 4
During the periods of September
11 through 15, September
25 through 29,
and
October
12 and 13,
1989,
a Design Validation Inspection
(DVI) was conducted at
the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant, Units 3 and 4,
and the Nuclear Engin-
eering offices at Juno
Beach, Florida.
The purpose of the inspection
was to
assess
the effectiveness
of the actions
implemented
as part of the Turkey Point
Performance
Enhancement
Program
(PEP) Project
4 on configuration control.
To
do so the team performed
a Safety
System Functional
Inspection
(SSFI)
on the
reactor protection,
component cooling and electrical distribution systems.
As a result of the inspection,
the team concluded that the facility had
an
inadequate verification program for the Design Basis
Documents
(DBDs) and
Component
Design
Documents
(CDRs).
The team identified numerous errors within
the
CDRs.
The verification program did not envelope
the external
hazards
design basis
and only addressed
a limited scope of the Reactor Protection
System
(RPS) characteristics.
The existing inaccuracies
in the
CDRs limited
the usefulness
of the
DBDs.
The team identified a number of concerns
regarding the seismic
and anchorage
qualifications for mechanical
components
in the component cooling water
(CCW)
system.
In some cases,
no calculations
were available,
and in other situa-
tions, there were errors in the method of analysis.
The adequacy of the
emergency
powe~ system
was not fully demonstrated
for the case of a battery
end-of-service-life voltage.
The team identified additional errors within the
design output documents
generated
by the architect engineers
in the electrical
and mechanical
areas.
Some
key electrical calculations
were not available.
Finally, some plant operating
procedures
were found in error with respect to
the'alve
lineup configuration.
The inspection
team identified several
strengths.
These
included the
analysis-based
preventive
maintenance
program, which utilized results
from
vibration, oil sampling,
and thermography
equipment monitor ing programs.
The
system level
DBDs were well prepared.
The team also noted significant improve-
ment in the quality of the Plant
Change
and Modification (PC/N) packages
as
a
result of the
PEP actions.
The Systematic
Design Investigation
program
provided
an excellent
means to prioritize and resolve outstanding
technical
issues.
Based
upon the identified design output document
and design interface control
problems,
the team concluded that greater technical oversight is needed
on the
part of the Florida Power and Light Company
(FP&L).
These
included
improperly performed stress
analyses for CCW components
and piping systems,
battery charger specification errors
and failure to revise
a stress
calculation
based
upon increased
loads.

INTRODUCTION
The Nuclear Regulatory
Commission
performed the Turkey Point Design Validation
Inspection
(DVI) to assess
the actions that have
been
implemented
as Project
4
of the Performance
Enhancement
Program
(PEP)
on configuration control.
The
PEP
was developed
by Florida Power and Light (FP8L) in 1984 to address
performance
and programmatic
problems at Turkey Point.
The four main objectives of the
PEP
were the continued
safe
and reliable plant operation,
improved plant material
conditions,
increased
emphasis
on quality performance
and continued responsive-
ness to regulatory requirements.
The
PEP was
composed of the following nine
projects:
site facility upgrade,
operations
enhancement,
procedures,
configu-
ration control program, training, management
action program, licensing program,
quality assurance
and quality control,
and the maintenance
management
system.
The remaining
PEP projects,
one through three
and five through nine,
were
evaluated
by Region II inspections.
The DVI assessed
the implementation of PEP regarding
the configuration control
program.
The program
had been
developed
to provide more detailed
systems
and
controls to describe
and
manage
the facility design
and operation.
The follow-
ing eleven tasks
were associated
with the configuration control project:
Task
1 - Enhancement
of the Plant
Change
and Modification (PC/M) program
by the establishment
of a Plant Review board to screen
proposed
PC/Ms and
issuance
of improved construction work controls.
e.
Task
2 - Evaluation of construction
documentation
to improve the controls
for the
PC/M implementation
and closeout
process.
Task
3 - Generation of an
FPSL startup
manual to formalize the startup
and
turnover process.
Task 4 - Updated drawings to incorporate outstanding
PC/Hs
and developed
criteria to as-built operations critical drawings.
Task
5 - Enhancement
of the control of vendor manual
documentation.
Task
6 - Formation of a Design Integration
Review Team (DIRT) to enhance
the coordination
between engineering disciplines.
Task
7 - Development of a standard
engineering
design
package to ensure
that
PC/Ms met the required
design criteria.
Task 8 - Development of an enhanced
program for vendor surveillance
and
establishment
of a formal review of the Architect Engineer
(A/E) work
products.
Tasks 9, 10,
and ll - Performance of selected
safety
system reviews.
A
Phase
I operability review of ten systems
was performed
by the Safety
Engineering
Group (SEG).
Phase II involved a further review of fourteen
accident mitigating and support
systems
which included:
Reconstitution of design basis
information and verification to
establish
consistency
between
the design basis
and design drawings.

Performance
of plant walkdown verifications for small bore piping and
tubing isometrics,
piping and instrument diagrams,
operating dia-
grams,
and the breaker list.
Performance
of a
SEG functionality and operability review.
Implementation of an enclosed
configuration management
program.
Implementation of plant hardware modifications
and performance
of an
Auxiliary Feedwater reliability study.
The DYI was performed in the framework of a Safety
System Functional Inspection
(SSFI)
on three plant systems.
The SSFI technique
involves the performance of
a vertical slice review of a system across
the functional areas
of engineering,
surveillance,
maintenance,
and operations
to verify that the attributes of
these functional areas
support the as-built plant configuration.
The systems
reviewed includeg component cooling water, reactor protection
and electrical
distribution.
The inspection evaluated
the adequacy
of the system Design Basis
Documents
(DBDs) by verifying the appropriateness
of the design
bases
and their
incorporation in the inputs to the
DBDs.
The
DBDs were then validated
by
reviewing their consistency with the as-built plant configuration, plant
procedures,
and engineering
calculations.
The inspection
was conducted at both the corporate
nuclear engineering offices
and the Turkey Point facility.
The inspection
dates
were September
11 through

15, September
25 through 29, and October
12 and 13,
1989.
This report describes
the activities and findings generated
by this team
inspection.
Some of the findings may result in potential
enforcement
items.
Region II will initiate and execute
any required
enforcement action that
results
from this inspection.
The inspection
team examined
a representative
sample of design
documents,
operating
procedures,
plant drawings, plant components,
and
DBDs to ascertain
the ability of the selected
systems
to perform the design functions.
The
review evaluated
compliance with regulatory requirements
and effectiveness
of
the design control process.
During the course of the inspection,
the team
on
a
sample basis verified the consistency
of the
DBDs with licensing
commitments,
design
and accident
analyses,
system performance criteria,
and system design
documents
and validated the ability of the system to perform the intended
design basis functions by comparing the
DBDs with the as-built plant.
The team
validated the DBDs, assessed
system functionality, and examined
the

Performance
Enhancement
Pro ram
(PEP
The inspection
team reviewed the eleven task areas
associated
with PEP
Project 4.
This involved an examination of the commitments,
procedural
changes
and program enhancements,
personnel
interviews, records review,
and review of
the
PEP implementation
through the performance of a functional inspection for
three safety-related
systems.
The inspection revealed
several
areas
in which the
PEP actions
remain outstand-
ing and for which inadequate
information was available to inspect.
These
have
been tracked
by the appropriate
licensee
management
systems
and are scheduled
for resolution.
They are identified in Appendix
C as Inspector
Followup
items 89-203-01
through 89-203-09.
The licensee
work has
been prioritized with
respect
to the safety significance of the actions.
With the exception of the
actions that the licensee
was currently pursuing,
the team found that the
facility had satisfactorily
implemented
the
PEP items.
2.2
Plant
Chan
e and Modification Pro ram
The team reviewed the enhanced
process
that had been established
for the Plant
Change
and Modification (PC/H) program
as part of Tasks I and
2 of the
PEP.
The implementing procedures for the Change
Review Team
(CRT) and Plant Review
Board
(PRB) were examined.
The multi-level review process for proposed
PC/Ns
addresses
work prioritization, technical
review, cost estimates,
work scope,
and work description.
The review groups are
composed of plant supervision
and
management for the
CRT and
PRB, respectively.
The review groups
screen
unnec-
essary

"'The 'team reviewed
an
FPSL task team assessment
of the large quantity of plant
changes
that had been in progress.
The assessment
was performed to identify
means to ensure that the operations staff had clear
knowledge of the plant
configuration during the modification process.
The task team also evaluated
methods to reduce the
PC/H life cycle and to expedite
PC/H closeout.
The
inspection
team reviewed the associated
plant procedures
and found the facility
had taken appropriate
steps
in response
to the task team recommendations.
The
team also reviewed
a recent
PRB meeting
summary to assess
how the group func-
tioned.
The enhanced
PC/H procedures
and processes
were found satisfactory.
2.2.1
Plant Hodification Im lementation
The team reviewed the following PC/Hs in detail to assess
their implementation:
PC/N 86-101,
EDG-B Auxiliaries Power Supply Relocation
Fuel Oil Transfer
Pump
4P10
and CV-2046B; and
PC/H 86-238; Safety Relief Valve Replacement
Component Cooling Water
System.
PC/H 86-101
addressed
modifications to three
components
in the emergency
diesel
generator
(EDG) fuel oil system.
While the team's
review found that the
facility tested
the fuel oil transfer
pump and control valve CV-2046B following
the modification, the team could not readily identify post-modification test
results for solenoid valve SV-3552B.
Subsequent
review of the diesel generator
surveillance
procedure
indicated that the valve was tested appropriately,
although the facility failed to include documentation with the
PC/N to substan-
tiate the testing.
The team also identified that,
due to
a relabeling of
common plant equipment,
the test documentation for PC/N 86-101
was not consis-
tent with the faci lity 's revised
equipment labeling.
Based
upon the team's
observations
noted in Section 2.9 of this report,
the nomenclature
problem also
existed in the
EDG fuel oil surveillance
procedures.
The post-modification test procedures
were reviewed for PC/H 86-238.
The team
noted that the documentation
was difficult to review and that clarifying
information was required from the responsible test engineer.
The team reviewed the startup testing manual,
issued
by FPSL,
as part of Task
3
of the
PEP.
The manual
was comprised of the Field Startup
Procedures
(FSPs).
The team assessed
the effectiveness
of the startup
manual
through
a review of
post-modification testing.
The
FSPs were found adequate
and the system testing
conformed to the
FSP requirements.
In general,
the team found that PC/Ns written after the
PEP implementation
were
more comprehensive
than the earlier PC/Ns.
For example,
recent
PC/Hs included
startup testing
and pre-operational
requirements
that were lacking in the
earlier
PC/Hs.
With the exception of the test procedure
inconsistencies
within
PC/N 86-101,
the plant modification implementation
phase
was considered
satisfactory.

'~i'he
team reviewed the piping and instrumentation
diagrams
(P8IDs), training and
education
diagrams
(T-Es),
and the isometric drawings for the
instrument
air,
125V/120VAC vital power,
and
emergency
diesel
generator
(EGG] systems
to
assess
the implementation of PEP Task
4 for drawing updates.
The team performed walkdowns of the Unit 3 and
4
CCW systems with respect
to
the associated
T-E drawings,
P&IDs, and piping isometric drawings.
The team
found that the T-E drawings accurately reflect the installed system.
Minor
inconsistencies
were identified on the piping isometric drawings involving the
location of branch lines
and vent or drain valves.
The facility informed the
team that the current revision of the isometrics
was scheduled for field
verification to update the drawings to an as-built status.
The team found the
system
P&IDs difficult to use
because
of poor legibility.
The licensee currently maintains four separate
sets of P&ID type diagrams:
A set of T-E drawings that are functionally as-built and are maintained
in
the control
room;
A set of P&IDs that depict as-built line sizes;
A set of P&IDs that depict the piping seismic boundaries;
and
A set of P&IDs that depict the piping safety classifications.
The team reviewed the various
P&IDs associated
with PC/M 86-238
and identified
several
discrepancies
in these
drawings.
The line size
P&ID did not specify
correct valve sizes,
and the seismic boundary
P&ID incorrectly identified the
valves
as non-seismic.
However, the safety classification
P&ID did indicate
that the valves were safety-related,
and the licensee
did procure these
1-1/2 inch and I inch valves
as safety-related
and seismically designed.
The
licensee
indicated that these
separate
sets of P&IDs will be consolidated.
Bechtel
had previously revised the original Dravo pipe fabrication drawings to
reflect the installed plant configuration.
Bechtel later reissued
those
drawings
as as-bui lt drawings in response
to
This program
was completed in 1984;
however,
those
drawings were neither maintained as-built
nor controlled by the licensee.
For that reason,
as-built piping physical
drawings
prepared
by Teledyne also function as piping stress
isometric draw-
ings.
Teledyne is currently issuing updates
of the Bechtel piping physical
drawings to incorporate
design
changes
that have
been
implemented
since
1984.
These
drawings will be field verified, and as-built versions of the piping
isometrics will be issued.
The licensee
has indicated that these
drawings will
be maintained as-built and controlled in-house.
The team found
some minor errors in the licensee's
instrumentation
and control
( I&C) plant operating
diagrams
(PODs)
as discussed
in Section 2.8.4, but
concluded that these errors would have
no impact on safe operation or design of
the plant.
For example,
the team identified one-line
POD that omitted
a fuse,
which could affect the use of the one-line
by operations.
The team found the
elementary
diagrams to be of good quality and without errors.
However, for
non-POD drawings,
such
as internal wiring and connection
diagrams,
the team
found several
errors
as discussed
in Section 2.5.2.

Section 3.2.12 of the specification
stated that the
pumps shall
be designed to resist earthquake
forces in the
horizontal
and vertical directions,
as specified
by the

FP&L addi-
tionally could not access
any seismic criteria for the
CCW surge tank, or any

should
be checked for the combined effects of piping
thrusts,

and seismic load.
However,
FPSL could not access
the anchor-
age calculations for the

and surge tanks.
The team was informed that an essential
calculation
program is planned for the
facility.

which calculations
are required
and will
verify that the calculations
are retrievable.

Teledyne
reviewed the safety-related,
large-bore piping systems,
equipment,
and supports
associated
with the
CCM system in Units 3 and
4 for
acceptance
to
FSAR criteria.
Bechtel previously reviewed these piping systems
for functionality.
Review of Teledyne calculations
6961C-1
and 6961C-3
revealed that the Teledyne stress
packages
cannot
be audited
as
independent
documents.
The Teledyne calculations
use information which Bechtel originally
prepared,
without clear reference
to 'the originating Bechtel
documentation.
ExampTes of such unreferenced
information include equipment nozzle thermal
displacements
and valve weights
and offsets.
The Teledyne stress
packages
do not appear to incorporate, either directly or
by reference,
the Bechtel information required to make these stress
packages
audi table.
This item an Inspector
Follow-up item (89-203-17).
Requirement:
Section 4.1 of ANSI N45.2.11 requires that design activities be documented
in
sufficient detail to permit verification and audit.

The team
compared
these calculations
against the applicable Teledyne engineer-

Some anchor bolt tens>on
and shear
loads,
such
as for support SR-703,
were
not computed in accordance
with the Teledyne procedure.
For example,
baseplate
edge distance amplification factors were not applied to compute
bolt tension
loads,
and the shear
loads were distributed to all, rather
t5an half, of the anchor bolts.
The allowable bolt tension
used to qualify pipe support
4-ACH-211 exceeded
the bolt tension allowed by the Teledyne design guide.
Bending stresses
in single-angle
supplementary
steel
were not correctly
computed.
Examples
included the supplementary
steel for pipe
supports
4-ACH-14 and 4-ACH-46.
Some supplementary
steel
was checked
using
assumed
cross-sectional
dimen-
sions that were not field verified.
Examples
included the supplementary
steel for pipe supports
4-ACH-190 and 4-ACH-191.
Spring hanger
4-ACH-207 tops

as-is
without ana lysis.
The Teledyne stress

indicated that
ZPA and seismic inertia loads
should
be combined absolutely,
however,
these
values
were actually
calculated
by the
SRSS
method within the stress

Dia ram Errors
Discussion:
The team reviewed the
POD logic diagram for the component cooling
water
pumps
and determined that the
CCW pump
3B breaker close logic was in
error.
The diagram incorrectly indicated that
a loss-of-offsite-power
load
shedding
signal would close the breaker
and start the
pump.
The correct logic
would open the breaker to clear the loads
on the bus
when
a load shed signal
were present.
The team determined that the elementary
diagrams
implemented
the
cor rect logic.
The licensee initiated DCR-TPI-89-187 to correct the error on
the logic diagram.
The diagram incorrectly depicted the start/stop
selector switch action for all
CCW pumps except
pump 3B.
The logic diagram
shows the switches
as maintained
in the stop position, which does not agree with the elementary
diagram.
These
switches
are spring returned to middle from start
and stop,
and pull-to-lock in
the stop position.
The team also identified an error on the
CCW T-E diagram where the drawing
incorrectly shows
a functional connection
between
the
CCW pumps
and the
pump discharge
pressure
channel
PI-*-640C.
The pressure
channel is a local
gauge with no electrical output,
and the
pump start function is provided by
PC-*-611 which is correctly shown elsewhere
on the drawing.
During a field inspection of miscellaneous
relay rack 4(R46, the team identi-
fied a drawing discrepancy
regarding the termination of PC-611X relay contacts
wired out for the
CCW low pressure
alarm.
The field inspection
indicated that
contacts
3 and
7 appear to be wired out, whereas
the instrument
loop diagram
shows contacts
4 and
8 wired out.
As wired in the field, the contacts will
B-10

operate
opposite to the contacts
as
shown
on the drawing.
The correct configu-
ration depends
on the external
annunciator circuit, which the team did not
review.
The licensee
agreed to investigate this discrepancy.
The errors in the
POD drawings
do not represent
hardware errors
and are consid-
ered comparatively minor, although they could mislead
an inexperienced
user.
The
POD errors cited herein appear to be isolated errors not typical of other
PODs examined
by the team.
The licensee
agreed to investigate
and correct the remaining errors
and
discrepancies.
This item is an Inspector Follow-up item (89-203-21).
Requirement:
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, states
that appropriate
drawings shall
be
utilized to accomplish activities affecting quality.

Assurance
of Un rounded
DC Control
Power
Discussion:
An automatic start signal
pressure
(60 psig) is
provided to the standby
CCW pump.
No credit is assumed for this automatic
start function for safe
shutdown or accident mitigation functions,
and the
automatic start is overridden during
a loss of offsite power to preclude
over load.
The low-pressure start circuits for each
CCW pump use
a
common
dc-powered control relay located in the miscellaneous
relay rack.
This device
presented
a potential
common
mode vulnerability to all three
CCW pumps.
The
team performed
a limited field inspection of the wiring of this relay and
determined that the contact output wiring for the two trains of pump controls
and the non-safety,
low-pressure
alarm circuit was bundled together.
The team
also identified
a discrepancy
between
the as-built wiring of the relay alarm
contact
and the instrument
loop diagram.
This discrepancy
is discussed
sepa-
rately in Deficiency 89-203-21.

The team's
review identified the following:
The miscellaneous
relay racks were not originally intended to contain
safety-related
circuits.
The team reviewed the relay rack seismic docu-
'entation that demonstrated
the seismic qualification of the rack and the
relay.
The configuration appeared
vulnerable to a single failure which could
disable all three
CCW pump control circuits by blowing fuses
in all three
control circuits.
The licensee
responded
that credit is being taken for
ungrounded
DC control circuits,
a single ground
on either
DC system would
not blow the fuses,
and such ground faults are detectable
and monitored
continuously.
However, the off-normal procedure for clearing grounds
does
not require
immediate action when'a
ground is detected
and provides
no
time limits on operating with a single ground
on the system.
The licensee
developed
a preliminary
FHEA for this circuit to address
actuation failure
of the relay, spurious actuation of the relay,
and contact welding or
short circuits.
The
FLEA took credit for detecting, isolating,
and
repairing the first ground in a timely manner.
Although unlikely, multi-
ple grounds
would need to be assumed if there are
no time limits on
removing grounds while the plant is at power.
The team found that external field cabling from the miscellaneous
relay
racks to the
CCW pumps
and to non-lE had
no separation
of internal wiring.
The team determined that the
FNEA demonstrated
that
a single failure
postulated for the internal rack wiring would not disable both trains.

The licensee's
design basis for the single failure criterion is provided in
guality Instruction JPE-gI 2.3.
That instruction specifies that both active
and passive electrical failures must be considered,
and the effect of each
single failure may be analyzed separately.
Accordingly, the ability of the
system to perform its safety function must not be precluded
by a single active
or passive failure.
While the team concluded that design basis
and
FSAR separation criteria have
been
met for the circuits in question,
the team also determined that assurance
must be provided that grounds
on the
DC system will not exist indefinitely.
Presently,
no such assurance
appears
to be provided in plant procedures.
This
is the remaining Inspector Follow-up item (89-203-22).

Discussion:
The minimum end-of-service-life battery terminal voltage is 105
Volts Direct Current
(VDC).
There is no evidence that the terminal voltage is
adequate
to power all safety-related
devices.
The licensee
has
performed
individual voltage drop calculations for load addition or modification.
The licensee
has not performed
a bounding calculation to show that all devices
located remotely from the battery
bus will be able to operate, successfully.
While some tests
have
been performed, certain
components
were bypassed
during
the testing
and were therefore
not verified to operate at the low battery
terminal voltage.
Adequate
assurance
does not exist that the combination of the minimum battery
terminal voltage
and system voltage drop considerations will yield sufficient
equipment voltages to maintain equipment functionality.

SUMMARY OF LICENSEE
STRENGTHS
AND WEAKNESSES
The following strengths
and weaknesses
represent
the more significant items
that were identified by the team during the DVI.
3.1
Plant Modifications
~Stree
the
The team found that the more recent
PC/Ms sampled during the inspection
were of
generally high quality and represented
a great
improvement over earlier
PC/Ms.
The team was impressed
by two recent instrumentation
and control modifications
which provided thorough
and explicit safety evaluations,
clearly stated
the
bases for the modifications,
and provided explicit design requirements.
The
team found the electrical
and mechanical
PC/M packages
well assembled
from an
administrative standpoint.
Weaknesses
The calculations
and specifications
associated
with the
PC/Ms that had been
generated
by the A/Es contained technical errors.
Contributing causes for the
problems
were the lack of sufficient FPIIL technical oversight of the A/E design
process
and the lack of
FPImL maintained
design specifications to ensure
consis-
tent design
approaches
among the A/Es.

Documents
~Stren the
In general,
the team
was impressed
by the depth, breadth,
and quality of the
system
DBDs and found them to be useful
and well researched
documents for
capturing the design intent without being unduly encumbered
by configuration
detailZ.
The SLI DBDs were also
deemed well researched
and useful.
Weaknesses
The engineering
personnel
did not appear to regard the
DBD as
a design tool.
The fact that the
DBD was produced
by non-licensee
personnel
appeared
to have
contributed to the lack of FPSL acceptance.
Furthermore,
the licensee's
intention to revise the
DBD only once
a year would tend to limit its usefulness
for modification packages.
The breadth of the
DBD verification was insufficient in, some cases.
The
was only verified with respect to a limited set of attributes,
and the alter-
nate verification approaches
were not well specified.
The preparation of a
verification attribute matrix captured
the alternate verification methods in a
concise
manner.
The
DBD system level documents
were
complemented
by the information contained
within the
CDR, although
numerous errors were found within the
CDR.
In some
cases
calculations to support the
CDR were unavailable
in the seismic
and
electrical areas.
These
shortcomings
could have
been
avoided if the licensee
had expanded its verification effort to include the
CDR.
The licensee's
development of the
CDR was considered
a significant area of
weakness,
since the
CDR was originally represented
by the licensee
as
an
approved
and controlled document containing information suitable for use in the
design
process
by utility engineering
personnel
and outside contractors.
3.3
S stem Procedures
Weaknesses
The team found two test procedures
which improperly identified system valves
due to a relabeling of the plant components.
While the correct valves were
manipulated
during the test, test personnel
did not utilize the procedure
update
process
when necessary
to correct procedural
deficiencies prior to test
performance.
Errors were also found within the
CCW system operating
procedure
involving inaccurate
valve lineups.
These
involved situations
where value
positions
were incorrectly specified that could result in a loss of inventory.
The battery surveillance
procedure
was found to test the battery in an improper
sequence
as the service test could be performed in a condition that was not
representative
of the as-found battery condition.
The off-normal operating
procedures for loss of
CCW flow could not be fully implemented
due to
improperly staged
emergency
equipment.

could be triggered.
Thus, the
attention of engineering
and operations
was appropriately
focused
on issues
that involved inherent high plant risk.
The proceduralization
and expansion of
the program to issues
beyond the scope of the select
system review is consid-
ered
a strength.

APPENDIX

DEFICIENCIES
This appendix
documents
the deficiencies that were identified by the inspection
team.
NRC open item numbers correlate with the deficiencies
discussed
in the
body of the report.
In addition to those
presented
in this Appendix,
Appendix
C identifies nine open items (89-203-01
through 89-203-09) for which
deficiencies
were not written because
they represent
PEP items for which the
licensee
actions
were outstanding
and inadequate
information was avai lable for
inspection.
DEFICIENCY 89-203-10:
CCW Heat Exchan
er
Fundamental
Fre uenc
Discussion:
FPSL engineering
package
PC/H 88-263
was written for replacement
of the Unit 4 heat exchangers.
FP&L prepared
purchase
order C88658 90314 to
procure the replacement
heat exchangers.
Appendix
C of the purchase
order
required that the replacement
heat exchangers
be qualified by the response
spectrum
approach for the
SSE depicted in Figure
1 of that Appendix.
Bechtel calculation C-SJ-183-02,
CCW Heat Exchanger
Support Pedestal
Load
Evaluation,
included
an evaluation of the heat exchanger
fundamental
frequency.
The Bechtel calculation
computed
a fundamental
frequency greater
than
33
Hz for
the heat exchangers,
and concluded that the heat exchangers
were rigid.
The
calculation therefore
used the Zero Period Acceleration
(ZPA) values of the
spectrum to compute the seismic reactions of the heat exchangers.
However, the
Bechtel calculation did not consider the transverse flexibilityof the concrete
pedestals
supporting the heat exchangers.
If the heat exchanger
and the
supporting
concrete
pedestals
were analyzed
as
a single mathematical
model, the
fundamental
frequency of the heat exchanger
along its longitudinal axis drops
to about
10 Hz.
This would increase
the magnitudes of the seismic
loads for
which the heat exchanger
must be qualified.
The replacement
heat exchangers
were qualified for piping thrust,
deadloads
and
seismic
loads
by Target Technology Ltd.
Bechtel
recommended
that Target
compute the heat exchanger
fundamental
frequency
and use the
ZPA loads both to
qualify the heat exchangers
and to compute the heat exchanger
support reac-
tions.
Like Bechtel, Target
computed the heat exchanger
fundamental
frequency
without considering
the transverse flexibilityof the concrete
pedestals
and
concluded that the heat exchanger
was rigid.
As a consequence,
Target quali-
fied the heat exchanger with respect
to the
ZPA seismic loads.
Since the heat
exchanger
and concrete
pedestal
configuration is flexible, the Target stress
report does not adequately
qualify the replacement
heat exchangers
for the
governing seismic loads.
This item remains
unresolved
(89-203-10).

included the qualification of the
CCW piping attached
to the
CCW heat exchanger
shell-side
nozzles.
In order to reduce the shell-side
nozzle loads,
Teledyne
input circumferential
and longitudinal rotational spring constants
at the
pipe-nozzle interfaces
instead of modeling these
interfaces
as rigid anchors.
However, Teledyne did not input a translational
spring in the global
2-direction to account for the transverse flexibilityof the concrete
pedestals
supporting the heat exchanger.
The addition of this translational
spring
constant
to the piping mathematical
model
may change
the frequency
response
of
the attached
piping,
and
may affect the magnitudes of the piping stresses
and
the shell-side

included
a check of the heat

for the replacement

seismic reac-
tions.
The Bechtel calculation
computed the heat exchanger
seismic reactions
using.-ZPA loads,
which implicitly assumed
the concrete
pedestals
behave
as
rigid structures.
However, Bechtel also did not access
the concrete
pedestal
detail drawing.
Without the civil drawing for the concrete
pedestal,
the load
transfer
between
the heat exchanger
and the top of the pedestal
through the
pedestal
anchor bolts, the structural
capacity of the pedestal itself, and the
load transfer
between
the base of the pedestal
and the building concrete
slab,
cannot adequately
be checked.
Calculation C-SJ-183-02
therefore
contained
several
undocumented

Teledyne technical report TR-5322-1, requires that
safety-related
piping be qualified to the appropriate
loading combinations
and
stress
limits.
However, the Teledyne calculation
does not address:
The effects of valve thrust;
The need to support valve RV-3-1431 with a tieback from the 3-inch run
pipe, since the branch line is not rigid;
A stress
check at the root of each branch line for the combined effects of
pressure,
deadload,
valve thrust,
and seismic loads; or
The effects of lumped mass of the branch line and relief valve.
If this
lumped mass is considered,
the fundamental
frequency of the branch line
will drop.

Procedures
Discussion:
The inspection
team reviewed operating
procedure
3/4-OP-030 for
the
CCW system to determine if valve lineups were consistent with approved
design
drawings
and if lineup changes for various operating evolutions were
properly established
and restored.
The team found the following deficiencies
when comparing the procedures
to system drawings 5610-T-E-4512,
Sheets
1 and 2:
Procedure
4-0P-030,
page 25, Step 7.5.2.7, directs the operator
to makeup
the
CCW surge tank as required
by manipulating valves t10V-4-832, 4-711B
and 4-710B.
Valve 4-737C was not referenced
as requiring manipulation;
however, it is shown as
a normally closed valve on the system drawing and
would inhibit makeup flow if not opened.
Procedures
3-OP-030
and 4-0P-030,
page 27, step 7.3.2.15 specify that
valve 4-711B be left open although drawing 5610-T-E-4512 indicates the
normal position as closed.
Step 7.6.2.15 specifies
the positions of
valves 3-711A and 4-711A as being left open although the referenced
drawing indicates
closed
as the normal position.
Procedures
3-OP-030
and 4-0P-030,
Attachments
2 and 3, for CCW valve
alignment inside and outside containment,
contained
the following
deficiencies:
Valves 3-10-681,
3-10-682,
and 3-10-683 were specified
as having
a
normal position of open in the valve lineup as
opposed
to closed
as
indicated
on the system drawing.
Valve 4-10-689
was specified
as being closed in the valve lineup as
opposed to closed
and capped
as indicated
on the system drawing.
Valves 3-10-749, 4-10-692,
4-10-1009,
4-10-1010,
4-1181, 4-1182,
and
4-769D were
shown
on the system drawings but were not included in the
valve lineup.
These deficiencies, if not corrected,
could have resulted
in failure to ade-
quately verify system integrity or could have placed the system in a condition
where valves were left opened
instead of closed, resulting in a loss of system
integrity.
With the exception of the makeup valves
(4-737C, 4-711B, 3-711A,
and 4-711A) the valves noted were vent and drain valves.
The licensee
agreed to make the identified corrections to the procedures.

Reactor Protection
S stem
The team reviewed the
DBD and verification report.
The team also reviewed
the Select Licensing Issues
(SLI) DBDs covering separation
and single failure
criteria, plant modifications,
system drawings, plant procedures,
and survei 1-
lance testing.
The team also performed
a walkdown of the control
room and
instrument rack room areas
to confirm proper
switch alignment.
In general,
the team was impressed
by the depth, breadth,
and quality of the
DBD and found it a useful
and well-researched
document for capturing the
design intent without being unduly encumbered
by configuration details.
However, the team concluded that the breadth of the
DBD verification was
insufficient in some cases.
The
DBD verification for the
was limited to
IEEE Standard
279 conformance,
which is a necessary
but incomplete criterion on
which to base
RPS functionality.
The licensee
did not include the verification
of critical
RPS functional requirements,
such
as response
times in the report.
The team was told that the licensee
took credit for periodic surveillance
test
results
and other plant programs to provide
a verification method for perfor-
mance attributes
such
as response
time and other design attributes,
such
as
separation.
The licensee
provided
a preliminary draft of a
DBD attribute
verification matrix for the
RPS.
This matrix identified references
to configu-
ration drawings,
performance
analyses
and calculations,
performance tests,
and
operability documents that verify key design attributes of the system.
It
appeared
that the verification matrix would enhance
the current
verification.
The team discussed
with licensee
engineering
and plant personnel,
the disposi-
tion of a variety of PWOs.
The
PWOs involved the
RPS fuse replacement
program
supported
by Westinghouse,
relay failures, the thermography monitoring program,
instrument vibration problems,
and various unrelated
items.
From these discus-
sions,
the team concluded that the
PWOs were properly dispositioned.
The team also identified one concern in the
CCW design involving a potential
single failure vulnerability that required
a successful
Failure trode and
Effects Analysis
(FMEA) to resolve.
Thq team noted that the
DBD validation
appears
to deliberately
exclude the use of Fh1EAs.

Procedures
(OPs) 3/4-OP-030
and Off-Normal Operating
Procedures
3/4-ONOP-030
and 3/4-0HOP-3108.2
were reviewed.
The team determined
that the valve lineups for procedure
3/4-OP-030
were incorrect.
The
CCW surge
tank makeup directions failed to include
a step to open valve 4-710B which
would be necessary
to achieve flow to the tank.
Several
vent and drain valve
positions
were specified in a position contrary to the system
TSE diagrams.
The identified concerns
could have resulted in a loss of system inventory.
This item is unresolved
(89-203-15).
The team also determined that procedure
3/4-ONOP-030 for loss of component
cooling water flow could not be implemented.
The Unit 4 charging
pump room was
not provided with emergency
hoses,
the hoses
in the Unit 3
pump room were not
of sufficient length,
and the hose couplings in the Unit 4
pump room were

The licensee
provided dedicated
hoses of
sufficient length in each unit and replaced
the hose couplings.

Logic diagrams

24D and 24E,
showed
a setpoint of 78.5 psig.
The team was
informed that the diagrams
were in the revision cycle and that the control
room
prints
had been red-lined.
FP&L letter L-86-112 described
the activities associated
with the formation of
a
CCW valve task team.
The team was informed that
CCW valve operability was
examined
and that the identified issues
were documented
on the select
system
deficiency master punchlist.
Some of the valves required repacking or seal
replacement
to ensure
the abi lity to perform in the post-accident
alignment.
The most significant overhaul
was replacement
of the emergency
containment
cooler containment isolation valve liners to reduce
excessive
leakage.
In 1984, Westinghouse
notified the
NRC of a reportable
item associated
with a
potential overpressurization
condition in the
CCWS system
due to a closure of
the surge tank vent valve due to high radiation.
recommended
disabling the surge tank vent valve in the open position and removing the surge
tank relief valve.
The licensee
developed plant modifications for both units
in response
to the recommendations.
In 1987, the vendor subsequently
reported
to the
NRC and the utility that implementation of the earlier
recommended
modifications would result in a violation of containment isolation require-
ments.
The plant modifications were placed
on hold and the licensee
demonstrated
that the system could support the postulated
overpressurization.
In addition, the licensee
evaluated
the release
of radioactive
gases
through
the surge tank relief valve.
The team reviewed the licensee's
documentation,
procedures,

FSAR Appendix 5A designates
the
CCW pump and the
CCW surge tank as Class I
components.
As such, this equipment
was to have
been designed
to withstand
....,.,;...earthquake
and other specified
loads without loss of function.
The team found
that
FP&L could not access
the design documentation
to confirm that the
pump and the
CCW surge tank had been seismically qualified, or that an anchor-
age
check for either
component
had been performed.
FP&L was able to provide
the team with the Westinghouse
design specification
and
pump data sheet for the
CCW pump, which detail the
pump seismic design requirements.
The licensee
initiated
a review to regenerate
the equipment calculations.
This item is
unresolved
(89-203-16) .
The team reviewed the safety-related,
large bore piping analysis
performed
by
Teledyne for conformance
to FSAR requirements.
The Teledyne effort was
an
extension of previous work which Bechtel
performed to evaluate safety-related,
large bore piping for functionality as part of the
NRC Bulletin 79-14 review.
The team found that the Teledyne stress
packages
could not be audited since the
calculations
use information such
as valve weights
and offsets
and equipment
nozzle thermal displacements
without clear reference
to the originating Bechtel
calculations.
The Teledyne analysis
was not structured
in a manner to support
an independent
audit.
This item is an Inspection
Followup item (89-203-17).
The team reviewed
a sample of approximately
two dozen pipe support calculations
which Teledyne
prepared
to qualify the
CCW pump and
CCW heat exchanger
piping.
The following concerns
were identified:
The baseplate
procedure
used
by Teledyne
was not applicable to the stan-
chion configurations that were qualified for uplift loads;
Some anchor bolt tension
and shear
loads were not computed in accordance
with Teledyne's
baseplate
procedure;
Bending stresses
in single-angle
supplementary
support steel
were not
correctly computed;
The Teledyne stress
packages
indicated that seismic inertia and
ZPA loads
were
combined absolutely,
although these
values
were actually combined
by
the square root of the
sum of the squares
method for use in qualifying the
pipe supports;
and
The
beam stiffener American Institute of Steel Construction
web crippling
check was not performed.
These
concerns
are unresolved
(89-203-18).
The team performed
a limited review of the Bechtel
program to qualify
safety-related
small bore piping.
One Bechtel
walkdown package
and backup
calculation
was reviewed.
The governing Bechtel specification required that
the cantilever branch lines
be rigid and satisfy the applicable stress crite-
ria.
The calculation which the team reviewed accepted
two branch lines with
frequencies
that were not in the rigid range, without requiring additional
supports to stiffen the branch line or additional
analyses
to properly seismi-
cally qualify the branch lines.

Q%P
Desi
n Basis Documentation
The team conducted
a detailed review of the
DBD verifica-
tion report to assess
the adequacy of the
DBD reconstitution
program,
the
adequacy
and pertinence of the information contained
in the
DBD, the prioriti-
zation
and resolution of open
items and missing essential
documentation,
and
the degree of verification and validation of the information contained
in the
DBD.
The team noted that Westinghouse
supplied the components,
designed
the
CCW system,
and
was tasked with preparing the
DBD documents.
The team observed that the
DBD contained
an adequate
level of system functional
basis
information and was well-supported
by reference
to-supporting
documents
and calculations.
The licensee
listed eleven calculations
performed during the
preparation of the
DBD which were associated
with the determination of the
component
and system heat
loads
and flow balance
requirements
to ensure
ade-
quate
performance of the system under normal, design,
and postulated
accident
conditions.
The team noted the following minor concerns with the system
DBD:
The list of components
that automatically isolate
on high containment
pressure
did not differentiate between
the Phase
A isolation signal
and
the Phase
B isolation signal.
The licensee will correct the list in the
next revision of the
DBD.
e
The calculation references
were not consistent within the
DBD.
The
licensee will correct this in the next revision of the
DBD.
The
DBD stated that the system relief valves should be located at the
boundary of the
low pressure
section of the
CCW piping instead of on the
surge tank to accommodate
a break flow into the
CCW system during an
thermal barrier tube rupture event.
The licensee
noted that this was
a
recommendation
and not
a requirement,
and will clarify the statement
in
the next revision of the
DBD.
The review of the portion of the
DBD that contained
the
questions
about the information contained in the document.
The team noted that
many of the stated
design
requirements
were not traceable
due to the lack of
references.
The document
was not well-prepared or reviewed.
It contained
information from the procurement specifications that did not reflect true
design
requirements
and information that was inconsistent with the system
design basis,
as illustrated by the following examples.
System configuration
changes
were designated
as pre-Operating
License
(OL)
and post-OL.
However, all of the configuration
changes
had occurred prior
to issuing the operating
license
on Unit 3.
The licensee
agreed to
correct the discrepancy
in the next revision to the
CDR.
The
CDR implied that the original chemical mixing pot had been replaced
and that the design pressure
and design
temperature
of the
new pot were
indeterminate.
The licensee
reviewed the information and determined that
the
CDR statement
was erroneous
because
the original mixing pot was only
moved to a different location in the system.
The licensee
agreed to
correct the information in the next revision of the
CDR.

The licensee
agreed to correct
the

CDR.
The required stroke times for the subject
containment isolation valves
were identified as
10 seconds
at 125 psid.
The surveillance
procedure for
valve stroke times listed closure stroke times of 30 to 120 seconds
in
accordance
with the technical specifications.
The licensee
noted that the
CDR requirement
was
a procurement
requirement
and was not related to
accident mitigation requirements.
The licensee
indicated that it would
revise the
CDR to clarify the requirement.
The
RCP thermal barrier heat exchanger inlet check valves were identified
as subject to Inservice Inspection
( ISI) and testing requirements.
The
licensee
determined that the supplemental
testing
was not required.
The
licensee
agreed
to correct the information in the next revision of the
CDR.
The design
parameters for the component cooling
pump suction pressure
instruments
were identified as
unknown.
The licensee
determined that the
statement
was erroneous
and agreed to delete it in the next revision of
the
CDR and to include the appropriate
information.
It appeared
that the licensee
had accorded substantially
less
importance to the
CDR document than the system
DBD.
The information found in the
CDR was often
in error or inappropriate.
The licensee
subsequently
issued
a directive that
e
established
cautions
and limitations on the use of the
CDR information.
Therefore,
the
FPSL end-users
were encumbered
with verification of the
information before using it as design input.
The team reviewed the
DBD system verification that was performed
by
The report verified 34 design basis
statements
by verifying
performance
requirements,
basic functions,
and interface requirements
that
related
the design basis of the system against plant documentation.
In some
cases
the verification was not completed
and
was reported for resolution.
The report also identified some areas of inconsistency
between the design basis
and plant documents.
The team concluded that the
CCW system design basis
requirements
were adequately verified and that the areas of incomplete verifi-
cation we'e appropriately identified.
The team noted,
however, that the
verification process
was primarily a documentation
review and very little
comparison of actual plant test results,
equipment
performance
and physical
walkdowns
was associated
with the verification process.
A notable exception
was the consideration of special test 86-05 involving the flow balance test
for the
CCW system.
The licensee
subsequently
generated
a
DBD verification
matrix that correlated
CCW testing with the performance verification
attributes.
A significant weakness
in the
DBD reconstitution
program was the lack of a
verification program for the information contained
in the
CDR document.
The
team was informed that
FPSL would perform an undefined verification of the
information.
This item is unresolved
(89-203-20).
An additional
weakness
in the verification process
was the exclusion of verifi-
cation for single failure vulnerabilities
as well as external
hazard
design
bases
such
as seismic, internally generated
missi le, compartment flooding,
16

fire, and electrical separation.
The licensee
informed the team that other
programs
(such
as Appendix
R
environmental qualification, high energy line
break,
and
sufficiently addressed
the design
bases for the
system
. The team determined that component seismic
response
and support
load
calculations
were not available for the
CCW pumps
and the
CCW surge tank as
documented earlier in this section.
A verification program for the hazards
would have identified this missing documentation.
The licensee
had prepared
a punchlist of open issues resulting from the verifi-
cation process.
Several of the punchlist items which related to emergency
containment
cooler heat removal performance,
excessive
CCW supply temperatures
under certain accident conditions,
and possible revisions to the
DBD heat
and
flow balance tables,
were addressed
in the SDI program described
in
Section 2.7.
Instrumentation
and Control
The team reviewed the
CCW design
aspects
related to leakage detection
and
mitigation.
The associated
instrumentation
was reviewed relative to the design
basis
leak rate,
the plant operating
procedures,
the surveillance
requirements,
and the operator
response
aspects.
The maintenance
instructions for the
surge tank level instrumentation calibration were found lacking in detail.
The
team was informed that
a procedure
upgrade
program for the instructions is in
progress.
The local
CCW surge tank level indicator for Unit 3 was found
by the team
and
PWO 6571/63
was issued to fix the indicator.
The
team reviewed
FPKL Technical
Issue
76, which stated that
no credit is taken for
the surge tank level instrumentation
channel.
The analysis of a failure or
inoperability of the
CCW level indication channel
was also reviewed.
The
analysis
demonstrated
that the fai lure modes
and consequences
are within the
plant design basis.
The team identified several
errors
on the
and
an instrument
loop
diagram:
I) The
CCW pump breaker
logic incorrectly
showed the breaker would
close
on
(LOOP) load shed signal.
The correct logic
would block the
pump start during
a
(LOOP) load shed.
The elementary
diagrams
properly implemented the logic.
2) The diagram incorrectly depicted the
start/stop
selector
switches for the
CCW pumps
as maintained in the stop
position.
The switch was also found to be
a pull to lock in the stop position
with a spring return from the stop position.
The elementary
diagram correctly
depicted the switch characteristics.
3) The T-E diagram incorrectly showed
a
functional connection
between
the
CCW pumps
and the
pump discharge
pressure
indication channel
which was only a local gauge.
4) The termination contacts
for relay
PC-611X were inconsistently
shown
on the instrument
loop diagram.
The licensee initiated
a correction
and investigation of the drawing errors
and
this item remains
an Inspector Follow-up item (89-203-21).
The automatic
pump start circuitry for a low
pressure
was reviewed
by the
team.
A common control relay was provided for all of the
CCW low
pressure
start circuits.
The relay contact output wiring was found bundled
together in the field.
The team reviewed
a
Ft1EA for the circuit configuration.
The
FHEA demonstrated
that internal rack wiring single failures would not
disable
both
CCW trains.
The
FMEA took credit for the ungrounded direct
current control circuit, such that
a single ground would not blow the fuses
and
that the ground faults are detected
and cleared.
The team noted that the
off-normal procedure for clearing grounds
does not require
an immediate action

and does not specify
a time limit to allow the ground to exist.
This is an
u
~
inspector follow-up item to evaluate
the administrative controls to preclude
ground faults from existing for extended
time periods
(89-203-22).
The team concluded that the licensee's
design basis reconstitution effort was
adequate, in the areas
covered
by the program, but that overall weaknesses
existed in the verification and validation process
due to its limited scope.
In particular, the team also questioned
the licensee's
approach with respect
to
verification and validation of the
CDR,
and felt that effort should
be expended
by the licensee
to make it a reliable document.
The team also found
some minor errors in the instrumentation
and control
PODs,
but concluded that the errors would not have significant impact on safe
operation or design of the plant.
The team found several
deficiencies
and
weaknesses
related to a lack of correspondence
between
the operating
procedures
and the plant configuration,
and the improper staging
and poor condition of
emergency
equipment.
Supporting calculations to demonstrate
the
CCW pump and
surge tank load and anchorage
adequacy
were not available.
2.8.5
Electrical Distribution
S stem
The team reviewed the electrical distribution system including the
EDG loading
calculations,
the capability to start large motors,
load sequencing,
the
battery rating and testing,
the replacement
of station battery chargers,
and
the
EDG enhancement
project.
The associated
calculations
and drawings were
reviewed with respect to the technical
requirements
contained within the
and
FSAR.
The team found that the
DBD,
FSAR and drawings were in agreement.
However the
calculations
were not consistent with the
FSAR and
DBD, and in some
cases
were
not available.
The inconsistencies
included battery capacity,
the method of
calculating short circuit currents,
instrument voltage tolerances,
and
terminal voltage.
The team was informed that the
DBD and
FSAR would be revised
appropriately.
These
were further examples of CDR errors discussed
in
Section 2.8.4.
The short circuit analysis of the Class
lE buses
was found incomplete.
Short
circuit calculation 5177-203-E-02,
issued in 1983, indicated the need to
perform an additional calculation to include the contribution of the
EDG.
The
licensee
generated
the missing calculation
and the results
were satisfactory.
As a result of its review of the
EDG motor starting,
the team questioned
the
CCM pump load value and the extrapolation of the
EDG response
to the
480 volt
loads.
The licensee
performed
a
new analysis,
in response
to the team's
questions,
to demonstrate
that the restart of the
CCll motor could be accom-
plished
when the diesel is running in a loaded condition.
The motor voltage tolerance
was specified
as plus/minus
10 percent in the
DBD,
although plant operating
procedures
allow the
EDG voltage output to operate
in
the range of plus/minus
15 percent.
The team determined that the operating
procedures
were in error and that the
EDG voltage regulator actually controls
the voltage to plus/minus
one per cent.

The team reviewed the adequacy
of the station batteries.
The minimum
end-of-service-life battery terminal voltage was stated to be
105 V.
The
licensee
has performed individual voltage drop calculations for load addition
or modification.
However,
no general tabulation of all loads exists to demon-
strate
the acceptability of the battery terminal voltage, i.e., that the loads
will function at 105 V.
The team reviewed selected test results that were
performed with the battery in a discharged
state.
Equipment appeared
to
function properly; however certain equipment
was bypassed
during the test.
Therefore,
the team remains
concerned that the testing
and available calcula-
tions'Mid not adequately
demonstrate
that the dc-powered
equipment
would
function at
105
V.
This item is unresolved
(89-203-23).
2.8.6
Plant Confi uration
The team performed
system walkdowns for the
CCW, instrument air,
and
systems.
Specific findings from system walkdowns
and general
observations
are
listed below:
e.
Instrument air control valve CV-4-2803 was erroneously
labeled
as
a
containment isolation valve.
The containment isolation valve label
was
removed to correct this problem.
During
a containment
walkdown for Unit 4, the team identified various
valves belonging to the breathing air, demineralized
water,
and service
air systems that were not labeled inside containment.
The team was
informed that the licensee
plans to label the service air and
demineralized
water systems
during the next outage.
A program has
been
implemented to tag the breathing air system during
a future outage.
The team identified a broken
gauge faceplate
inside containment for
pressure
gauge TI-4-1467.
The licensee
stated that it would replace
the
The team identified two
CCW relief valves
on the containment
coolers that
had tape covering the vent ports.
The licensee
subsequently
removed the
tape.
Excessive boric acid crystal buildup was identified around the valve
bonnet flange on two containment
spray
pump suction valves.
The licensee
informed the team that the valves would be fixed during the next outage.
As discussed
in Section 2.3,
some discrepancies
were found between
the plant
drawings
and the as-built plant configuration.
The assessment
of these errors
was that plant operability would not be affected.
During
a general
area
walkdown the team observed that 4-inch holes
had been
drilled into the bottom of the lagging covering the electrical
cables to the
safe
shutdown
panels at 3-inch intervals.
The licensee
stated that water and
high humidity problems
caused
the lagging to swell and
bow, and that drainage
holes were drilled in the bottom of the lagging to allow water to escape.
The
team reviewed Industrial Testing Laboratories report 86-1-143,
which demon-
strated that an equivalent
lagging configuration
had passed
the ASTN-E119 test
requirements
to limit the inner conduit surface
temperature
to 325 degrees

2.9
Surveillance Testin
The team reviewed the
CCW surveillance
procedures
and applicable
TS require-
ments.
The team identified that the monthly flowpath verification procedure,
3/4-0SP-030.3,
did not address
the
CCW pump seal valves
and the
A and
8 header
cross-connect
valves.
The licensee
incorporated
both sets of valves into the
lineup verification procedure.
The
TS requires that the emergency
containment
coolers
be tested
during each
refueling outage to ensure
2000
gpm flow through
each cooler unit.
The appli-
cable surveillance
procedure,
3/4-0P-4704.5,
described flow test performance
with two pumps in operation.
However, the post-accident
lineup is expected
to
include only one
pump.
The team was informed that
a
CCW system flow balance
had been
performed in 1986
and that the system valves were aligned for proper
single-pump operation.
The licensee
stated that
a correlation
between
the one-
and two-pump operation
would be incorporated
into the revised
TS to remove the
current ambiguity.
The team reviewed the IST program for containment isolation valves.
Review of
the
DBD CDR indicated that it specified the
CCW containment isolation valve
stroke time as
10 seconds.
The
IST stroke times for the valves were
30 seconds.
The team was informed that the
DBD CDR time limits were based
upon
vendor recommendations
and that the
DBD CDR would be revised for consistency
with the IST requirements
which implement the applicable
TS requirements.
The team noted that FP8L's Measuring
and Test Equipment
(NOTTE) program was very
comprehensive
and technically acceptable.
The team questioned
the controls for
loaning ATE to plant employees for personal
use
and
was informed that the
equipment
would be calibrated
both prior to leaving the site and upon return.
The team found the surveillance test procedures,
particularly the Integrated
Safeguards
Test
( IST), technically adequate.
However, maintenance
calibration
procedures
did not contain sufficient details for the
CCW surge tank level
instrument calibration.
FPSL informed the team that upgraded
maintenance
calibration procedures
were being developed similar to the in-place surveil-
lance program.
The team also reviewed the
EDG surveillance testing
and found that the test
results
under simulated
loadings were not extrapolated
to predict the
response
to the actual
loss-of-coolant-accident
(LOCA) loading.
The team
reviewed the
EDG vendor, startup,
periodic loading,
and sequencing
test
results,
and concluded that the
EDG has been'roperly
tested.
The response
of
the
EDG was questioned
during the situation
when the
EDG is paralleled to the
off-site source during the test.
The team reviewed the
EDG response,
which
would include isolation from the off-site source
and mitigation of the loss of
offsite power.
The successful
response
would be achieved with an assumed
single failure and without violation of redundancy
between
the two redundant
trains.
The team reviewed the fuel oil transfer testing
and noted that the procedure
valve nomenclature
did not correspond with the plant valve identification.
Due
to
a relabeling of equipment,
discussed
in Section 2.2.1,
the test procedure
did not reflect the current
component identification.
The team confirmed that
20
~i
I
~
0
the proper equipment
was operated
during the test.
The licensee
implemented
a
procedure
change to correct the improper valve nomenclature.
The team reviewed the ammeter
instrument accuracy with respect to the battery
surveillance test.
To account for the instrument accuracy,
FP8L documented
that sufficient margin existed
between
the actual test loading and the duty
cycle presumed
in the battery calculation.
The team also questioned
the
procedure
sequence for checking
and tightening the battery cell cable
connec-
tors.
FP&L revised the test procedure to preclude
these
concerns for future
testirfg.
The calibration of the source-range
nuclear instrumentation
was reviewed
by the
team.
The procedure relies
upon megger tests.
However,
megger testing
measures
only impedance
to ground
and cannot
be relied upon to detect
cable
degradation.
Other attributes
such
as conductor
impedance
need to be validated
before
a comprehensive
conclusion
can
be reached
regarding
cable degradation.
The use of time-domain reflectometry
(TDR) is an alternate
system that
can
identify problems with the cable
and connector
system.
The
TDR system
compares
reflected versus original pulses to identify weak links in the system.
Based
upon the team's
review, the licensee
has properly structured
the survei 1-
-.lance program to verify the operability of the system
components.
2.10
Maintenance
0
The team reviewed the predictive maintenance
program that utilizes vibration
analysis, oil sampling
and thermography
techniques,
as well as the following
documentation
regarding
CCW system maintenance activities:
corrective
and
preventive maintenance
procedures;
Plant Work Orders
(PWOs); Nuclear Plant
Reliability Data System
(NPRDS) failure information; and vendor technical
manuals.
The team's
review of
CCW maintenance
procedures
and the associated
equipment
vendor manuals
found them satisfactory with regard to format, incorporation of
vendor requirements,
quantitative
acceptance
criteria, coordination with
operations,
and post-maintenance
testing.
The team reviewed the licensee's
analysis-based
preventive maintenance
program
which included the predictive maintenance
program.
Routine monitoring of plant
equipment
has
been
performed which utilized vibration analysis, oil sampling
and infrared thermography.
The results
were trended
and analyzed to obtain
early detection of equipment degradation.
The
CCW pumps were examined
on a
quarterly basis.
The program has successfully
identified problems in other
plant systems,
such
as improper oil in a auxiliary feedwater
pump governor
and
electrical
system hotspots.
The team reviewed the
CCW component failure information.
The repetitive
pump mechanical
seal failures were found rectified by revising
a maintenance
procedure that had specified the incorrect seal
spring compression
value which
could have resulted
in increased
seal
wear.
The team reviewed the outstanding
PWOs for the
CCW system.
While the work
prioritization appears
proper,
157
PWOs remain outstanding.
Three of the
PWOs
have
been outstanding
since
1986, while the majority (109) were issued in 1989.

design review processes.
The team reviewed the DIRT charter,
which stated
additionally that the DIRT's mission
was to review PC/Ms, safety evaluations,
and justifications for continued operations
(JCOs).
The team reviewed meeting minutes from a recent
DIRT session.
In addition, the
team attended
a DIRT meeting
and found good communications
among the corporate
and site engineering
organizations.
The DIRT discussed

As part of PEP Task 7,
FPSL issued
several
upgraded
procedures
to implement

The inspection
team reviewed
these
procedures
and determined that they defined the responsibilities of
design organizations,
control of design interfaces,
release of design output
documents,
changes
to approved output documents,
changes
to drawings,
and
control of design records.
An EP is developed
in stages
in coordination with plant operations
and instal-
lation personnel.
The final design
package
may be audited
by the DIRT which is
described
in Section 2.4.
The licensee
uses
an
EP feedback sheet to provide
constructive
feedback to the design organization
regarding the quality of the
design output.
The team also reviewed the procedure for DEEPs, which are
issued to implement
a change that does not alter the plant design basis.
Typically, a
DEEP is used for like replacements.

To evaluate
the facility's electrical engineering
design
packages,
the team
reviewed
PC/M 88-350 for the installation of the
new battery chargers.
Although the package
had not been fully approved, it had been design verified.
The purchase
specification for the
new chargers
had been
issued for bids,
and
two chargers
had been
shipped to the site.
The team also reviewed calculations
and
EC-52 for battery charger sizing
and supply cables,
respectively.
The battery charger sizing calculation
was
found adequate.
The supply cable calculation,
however,
was found deficient
since the licensee
had not checked
the short circuit capability of the
cables.
The supply cables
were rechecked
by the licensee
and verified to be
satisfactory for service.
The licensee .stated that it would institute
a
formal procedure to preclude
a recurrence
of this problem in the future.
The team raised

of the
vendor,
compliance with IEEE 650 was
added
as
an amendment to the original

and 2.38 volts per cell, which would result in a
battery voltage of 139.8 to 142.8 volts.
Plant operating
procedure
O-SME-003.3 defined the maximum equalizing voltage
as
138 volts.
The
licensee
confirmed that the charger
specification
was incorrect
and would
be revised.
In summary, while the team found the
PC/M adequate,
the associated
specifica-
tion and calculations
lacked proper coordination,
and did not contain clear
definition of the applicable requirements,
and contained technical errors.
2.5.2
Instrumentation

The team reviewed the following modification packages:
PC/M 86-239,
RPS Test Selector Switch Replacement
PC/M 87-114,
CCW Heat Exchanger

within the
and
CCW systems
respectively.
Both provided thorough
and
explicit safety evaluations,
clearly stated
the bases for the modification,
and
provided explicit design requirements.
PC/M 86-239 indicated that the facility properly consiaered
the effects of any
new failure modes or effects introduced
by the
new configuration.
The team
examined portions of the revised surveillance test with respect
to the revised
wiring diagrams,
drawings,
and other design
documents
and found the
implementing documentation
to be consistent.
PC/M 87-114 explicitly documented
requirements for channel
accuracy
and
provided sufficient engineered
design details for proper procurement
and
installation.
The team asked
the licensee to verify that the associated
flow
channels
were designed
in a manner that would promote sufficiently accurate
and
repeatable
measurements.
The licensee
demonstrated
that adequate
upstream
and
downstream conditions
had been provided for the flow elements.
During the review of drawings associated
with PC/M 86-239, the team identified
several
errors
on the
RPS wiring and connection
diagrams.
These
involved
incorrect status light wiring, improperly identified switches,
poor cross
references,
and ambiguous
terminal identification.
The licensee
reviewed the
drawings
used for work implementation
and determined that the identified
concerns
stemmed
from drafting errors.
The licensee
agreed to correct the
affected drawings.
The team noted that the requirement for failure mode evaluation
and explicit
safety evaluations
was reflected in the modifications.
The team also noted
that the concept of the engineering

mechanism to solicit feedback
on the quality of the engineering
package.
The
team was impressed
by these
two recent modifications.
The packages
provided
thorough
and explicit safety evaluations,
clearly stated
the bases for the
modifications,
and provided explicit design requirements.
2.5.3
Mechanical
Com onents
The team reviewed the following design modification packages
concerning
mechan-
ical equipment modifications:
PC/M 88-263,
Component
Cooling Water Heat Exchanger
Replacement;
and
PC/M 86-238, Turkey Point Unit 4 Safety Relief Valve Replacement/Component
Cooling Water System.
A Bechtel calculation,
prepared to check the concrete
pedestals
supporting the
heat exchangers,
erroneously
concluded that the heat exchanger
was.,rigid with a
fundamental
frequency greater
than
33 Hertz (Hz).
Subsequently,
Target Tech-
nology performed
a frequency
check and confirmed that the heat exchanger
shell
is rigid.
Target then used the safe
shutdown earthquake
(SSE) zero period
acceleration
(ZPA) to qualify the heat exchanger
shell
and attachments
based
on
the fundamental
frequency calculated
by Bechtel.
The team found that the
Bechtel calculation failed to consider the transverse flexibilityof the
concrete
pedestals,
which would affect the heat exchanger
response
and would
lower the fundamental
frequency to approximately
10 Hz.
As
a result,
the
loads
computed
by Target Technology would represent
less
than half of the
seismic
loaas that the heat exchanger
would engage
based
on the flexibilityof
the concrete
pedestals.
Consequently,
the Target stress
report does not
adequately qualify the replacement
CCW heat exchangers
for the governing
seismic
loads.
The licensee initiated
a review of the calculation.
This item
remains
unresolved
(89-203-10).
Teledyne
prepared
the stress
analyses
to qualify the shell-side piping of the
CCW heat exchangers.
Teledyne
modeled the circumferential
and longitudinal
nozzle stiffness
as rotational springs,
and restrained
the remaining rotational
degree of freedom and the three translational
degrees
of freedom.
Because of
the concrete
pedestal flexibility, the translational
degree of freedom at each
shell-side
nozzle-piping interface
should also
be released
and modeled
as
a
translational
spring.
Adding this translational
spring constant to the mathe-
matical piping model
may affect the frequency
response
and the stress
magnitude
of the attached
piping.
The licensee initiated
a review of the calculation
and
this item is an Inspector Follow-up item (89-203-11).
The team reviewed the Bechtel calculation which was prepared
to check the
heat exchanger
concrete
pedestals
due to the heat exchanger reactions.
The
Bechtel calculation
makes
assumptions
regarding
the pedestal
steel reinforce-
ment because
the installation drawings
could not be found.
Consequently,
the
team could not check the following attributes:
the load transfer
between
the
heat exchanger
and the top of the pedestal;
the load transfer through the
pedestal
anchor bolts; the structural
capacity of the pedestal itself; and the
load transfer
between
the base of the pedestal
and the building concrete slab.
This item is an Inspector Follow-up item (89-203-12).
The team reviewed another
Bechtel calculation which tabulated
CCW heat

nozzle
loads that Bechtel
had originally transmitted to Target Technology.
Although Bechtel transmitted
these revised
loads to Target Technology, Target
Technology never revised
and reissued
the seismic qualification report for the
CCW heat exchangers
to document the acceptability of the increased
shell-side
nozzle loads.
The licensee initiated
a review of the calculations
and this
item remains unresolved
(89-203-13).
The team reviewed the calculation prepared
by Teledyne to support
PC/H 86-238
for the replacement
of the Unit 4
CCW relief valves.
The calculation did not
address
the effects of valve thrust,
the need to support
a flexible branch
line, and the performance of a stress
check at the root of each branch line.
The licensee initiated a review of the calculation
and this item remains
unresolved
(89-203-14).
The team concluded that the documentation
associated
with recent Unit 4
heat exchanger
replacement
did not adequately qualify the heat exchangers,
anchorages
or pedestals.
The team also concluded that while the
EPs were
satisfactorily
documented
from an administrative standpoint,
the supporting
technical specifications
and calculations
prepared
by the architect engineers
(A/Es) contained errors involving improper design
assumptions
and poor design
interface controls.
Greater technical oversight
by FP&L is required to ensure
the acceptability of the A/E design output documentation.
2.6
Vendor Surveillance
As part of the
PEP,
FP&L developed
a program of enhanced
vendor surveillance.
FP&L acts largely in a project management
role and relies
upon A/Es to prepare
complex modifications.
The vendor surveillance
program was developed
to ensure
that more uniform quality work products
were received from the vendors.
FP&L issued
procedures
to provide guidelines
and guality Assurance
(gA)
requirements
that must
be followed for the Delivery and Work Authorizations
(DWAs) that
FP&L engineering
prepares for the A/Es and other consulting
services.
In September
1988,
FP&L engineering initiated periodic reviews of
both Bechtel
and Ebasco to assess
the quality of their work.
The assessments
were documented
in formal proprietary reports.
The objective of these reports
is to provide structured
feedback to the A/E, the basis for improvement goals,
and
an understanding
of expected
performance
goals.
The surveillance
program
also provides for monthly status
meetings,
quarterly
management
reviews,
and
formal six month appr'aisals
of the A/Es.
While the team found the vendor surveillance
program to be
a worthwhile initia-
tive, the concerns identified by the team relative to the design output docu-
ment errors discussed
in Section 2.5.3, ndicate that
FP&L should provide more
vigorous technical oversight of the A/Es.

The team reviewed the licensee's
efforts to handle the technical
issues
that
arose
from the design basis reconstitution
program for the selected
systems.
These
issues
included
many unanswered
technical questions,
which the licensee
identified during the design verification process,
that could not readily be
answered
and that potentially involved nuclear safety
issues
and deviations
from NRC requirements.
To handle
these
issues,
the licensee
developed
the
0

r
As
V, L
I
...,Systematic,
Design Investigation
(SDI) program through which it prioritized and
resolved questions
based
on their safety significance.
The SDI program employed
a risk-based prioritization based
on standard reli-
ability techniques.
The risk screening
process identified the failure, its
consequence,
and the sequence
of events.
In addition it quantified the limit-
ing scenario
as the basis for assigning
the concern to
a risk category.
Risk
categories
were developed
based
on the probability of the scenario
compared to
the risk limits of core melt or significant release.
Based
upon the relation-
ship tretween the scenario risk and the risk limits, the appropriate
action
would be taken including immediate evaluation or plant shutdown.
The scenario
was additionally ranked with consideration of the regulatory requirements
to
capture
low probability events
such
as seismic events.
The licensee
implemented
the
SDI program in 1987
and realized the benefits of
an ordered
approach
to resolution of technical
issues,
an integration of
design,
operations,
and risk perspectives,
and
an enhanced
understanding
of
plant safety.
At the time of the inspection,
62 risk evaluations
had been
completed, with only 2 categorized
a high risk.
Both of these
issues
related
to the
CCW heat
loads being greater
than the design basis
and the resultant
possible
loss of the
CCW system.
The team reviewed the two technical
issue
documents
regarding the
CCW risk evaluations
and concurred with the licensee's
conclusion that the plant systems
could accommodate
the increased
heat
loads.
The team concluded that the SDI program was
an area of strength for the
licensee
and noted that the licensee
has proceduralized
the program and
expanded it to include technical
issues
beyond the select
system issues
which
are described
in the next section.

The select
systems
review addressed
Safety Engineering
Group reviews, plant
walkdowns, configuration management,
and design basis reconstitution.
Fourteen
systems
were originally identified for the select
system review.
System level
DBDs were developed to identify the functional requirements for the systems
and
the system interface requirements
and licensing
commitments.
The team verified
the
DBDs to ensure
consistency with the design
documents
and also validated the
DBDs to ensure
consistency
with the as-built configuration.

(SEG
The
SEG review was conducted
in two phases.
During the Phase
I program, the
SEG performed
an assessment
of the operability of the select
systems
using the
vertical slice approach.
During the Phase II program,
a more comprehensive
review was conducted
to substantiate
operability and functionality throughout
the select
system review program.
The inspection
team reviewed the reports
issued
by the
SEG between
January
31,
1986,
and August 10, 1989,
and discussed
the results of the
findings with licensee
representatives
in the
SEG organization.
The Phase II
reviews addressed
the status
and resolution of Phase
I issues
and identified
additional
items requiring resolution.
The
SEG open items were incorporated
into a comprehensive
select
system punchlist.
Initially, over
2400 items
and
issues
were identified, with over 80 percent of the items having been resolved.

In addition to design
and operational
concerns,
the
SEG reviews identified
administrative
and programmatic
weaknesses
in the areas
of plant housekeeping,
reduction in the large backlog of Plant Work Orders
(PWOs),
and
management
controls for effective problem resolution.
The team was informed that these
concerns
arose
during
a period of high turnover in maintenance
and other plant
management
positions.
Improvements
have
been
made in the identified areas
to
yield better
management stability and continuity.
Of the more than
30 specific items identified by the
SEG in connection with the
CCW system,
4 items remained
open.
One long-standing
concern
involved the
automatic temperature
control valves for the non-regenerative
heat exchangers
on Units 3 and 4.
The valves were designed
to modulate the cooling water to
the shell side of the heat exchanger
as necessary
to maintain the desired
tube-side outlet temperature
in the chemical
and volume control system
letdown
line.
Due to recurring maintenance
problems with the temperature
control
valves,
the valves
on both units were inactivated
by closing the upstream
manual valves
and throttling the bypass
valves to allow a fixed flow of approx-
imately 350 to 550 gallons per minute (gpm).
The
CCW flow diagram
showed the
revised valve arrangement.
The P&ID, however,
showed the original design
arrangement.
The
SEG identified that the change to the flow diagram
was
made
without an approved
design
change
review.
The inspection
team was concerned that the proper documentation
to resolve the
identified design
change deficiency
was not issued
in the three years
since the
discrepancy
was identified.
Additionally, in preparing
the system heat
balances
under various flow and operating
modes,
both the
CCW System
DBD and
the Design Basis Verification Report
assumed
the valves functioned
as designed.
The team subsequently
reviewed the results of a special test which demonstrated
the acceptability of the revised valve arrangement.
Approximately 53
SEG identified issues
remain outstanding
although the final
reports
have been
issued for both units.
The team discussed
this situation
with the
SEG chairman
and was assured
that the items would be tracked to
resolution.
Also, the
SEG reports for three additional select
systems
are
outstanding.
Appendix
C identifies these
items
as Inspector Followup items.

The team reviewed the walkdown program for the small bore piping and tubing
program associated
with the select
systems.
The program was established
due to
the lack of a controlled, as-built record for the small bore piping and tubing
and associated
supports
and restraints.
The small-bore walkdowns were conducted
in three
phases
over the period from
1985 to 1989.
The licensee
defined
more than 250 walkdown packages for the two
units and prepared detailed isometric drawings to record the as-built and
as-found conditions of each piping and tubing section.
Each walkdown package
was evaluated
using
span tables,
or more detailed
support calculations
when
necessary,
to ensure that deadweight,
seismic,
and thermal
loads did not cause
the piping system to exceed allowable stresses.
The inspection
team selected
three walkdown.packages
and associated
documents
for the
RPS, the emergency
power system,
and the auxiliary feedwater
system.
The walkdown packages
identified numerous
minor deficiencies
including bent or
missing support clips and unattached
pipe or tubing supports.
