The inspector
reviewed all the above indicated procedures,
completed
since
commercial
operations. for the
above listed valve,
to verify
that
these
procedure
are
the latest
ones
approved
and that test
acceptance
criteria used
were valid for the component
being tested.
d.
The inspector
reviewed all the above indicated procedures,
completed
since
commercial
operations
for the
above listed valves, to verify
that inservice test results
were recorded
per the approved
procedures
and that data
was evaluated within the time constraints
delineated
in
the appropriate edition of the
ASME Code Section XI, Subsections
IWP
and
IWV.
e.
The inspector
reviewed data
from all the above indicated procedures,
completed
since commercial
operations for the above listed valves, to
verify that
IST data
was evaluated
per the requirements
of ASME Code
Section XI, Subsection
IWV, and
and
ensured
that
appropriate
followup actions
were taken.
f.
The inspector
examined
selected
records
to verify that
IST records
are
maintained
as
delineated
in
IWV-6000;
and
engineering
evaluations
are sufficient to justify changes
to reference
values
and
removal
of
increased
frequency
testing
requirements
should
be
documented
and reviewed;
g.
Relative to the above,
the inspector
made the following observations.
(1)
Valve No. 1-SC-34
a 3-inch check valve is required
by ISI-203 to
be full flow tested.
This testing
is
accomplished
with
OST-1215,
"Emergency
Service
Water System Operability quarterly
Interval
Modes 1-2-3-4."
OST-215,
Rev.
1, paragraph
1. 1 states
"to verify the operability of 1B-SB
ESW Screen
Wash
Pump
and
that its associated
discharge
check valve (1-SC-34)
passes
flow
in the forward direction."
The procedure
provides
no full flow acceptance criteria for the
pump
and
therefore,
no full flow acceptance
criteria for
1-SC-34.
The
above is the result of the fact that the screen
wash
pump flow is dependent
on system
demand.
In view of the
above, it is evident that the licensee
has not demonstrated
that
valve
1-SC-34 is exercised
to the position required to fulfill
its safety function as required
by IWV-3522.
IWV-3522 has
been
interpreted
by the Office of Nuclear
Reactor
Regulation
(NRR)
letter from D.
G. Eisenhut,
Director, Division of Licensing to
C.
E. Norelius, Director, Division of Engineering
and Technical
Programs,
Region III, dated
January 3,
1983,
which indicated
that
NRR has
found four methods
acceptable
to test check valves
in which the full stroke motion of the disk cannot
be directly
observed
or where there is no position-indicating device are
as
follows:
a.
By demonstrating that the valve can
pass
the full flow
which has
been
taken credit for in FSAR analyses.
b.
By showing that, for the measured
flow, the pressure
loss
through
the valve is
such that the valve could
only be fully open.
c.
By using
a mechanical
exerciser
which can
be observed
to move through
a full stroke.
d.
By partial
disassembly
of the valve
and
manually
moving the disc through
a full stroke.
-The inspector
noted that
a similar condition exists for OST-1315
relative to valve
1-SC-34.
The licensee
indicated that they
would review their
program relative to full flow check valve
tests
to assure
that those
valves are tested
consisted with the
NRR position
as stated
in the January
3,
1983 letter.
Pending
NRC review of the licensee's
actions
relative to the
above
issue, this matter will be identified as inspector followup item
50-400/87-39-01:
"Full Flow Testing of Check Valves."
(2)
Procedure
No. ISI-203,
Rev. 3,
on page
4 of 259 states
in part
that "Valve Stroke Direction:
Valves will be stroked
and timed
in their Safety-Related direction(s)."
Valve 1-SI-86 is stroked
and timed from closed to open in OST-1106
and open to closed in
OST-1028.
The licensee
indicated that they would review the
valve
program to assure
that valves are'tested
in a direction
consistent with the commitment in ISI-203.
(3)
Procedures
OST-1216
and
1106
reference
CPSL
letter
SHH10/14506101
MS-850167
(o)
dated
December
9,
1985,
which
states
in part:
"Increase-Test-Frequency-
This limit on
stroke
time
is
specified
by Section XI.
If a
valve
stroke
time
exceeds
this
value the test
frequency will be
doubled until corrective action is
taken."
The
above is not consistent
with
ASNE
B&PV Code
Section
XI
paragraph
IWV-3417 which requires test frequency,
when required
to be increased,
be increased
to once each
month instead of once
each
month and
a half.
The inspector
was
unable
to identify any examples
where test
frequency
increase
was actually necessitated
because
repairs to
valves
were
made within one
month of the identification of an
unacceptable
increase
in stroke time test results.
The licensee
indicated
that
they
would
review their
program
and
make
necessary
changes
to assure
that increased
frequency testing,
when required,
would be consisted
with the applicable
sections
of the code.
(4)
The inspector
noted that procedure
Nos.
OST-1315
and OST-1215,
produce
records
attesting
to
exercise
testing
of valve
No.
1-SC-34
by inference only.
The
same is true for procedure
No. OST-1103 for the
IWV-3300 testing of valve
No. 1-CC-128.
The licensee
indicated that they would review the valve test
procedures
relative to record clarity and
make
any necessary
changes.
Within the areas
examined,
no violations or deviations
were identified.
