INSPECTION RESULTS
Inadequate Procedure Leading to A EDG Fire Event

Systems05000395/2018004-02 Risk Assessments and
Opened/Closed Emergent Work Control &
71111.19 - Post
Maintenance Testing
A self-revealing, Green NCV of Technical Specification 6.8, Procedures and Programs, was
identified for the failure to ensure procedures for performing maintenance on the A EDG
were adequately established which led to a leak in the A EDG exhaust manifold and a
consequent fire event.
Description:
On November 4, 2018, during a surveillance test of the A EDG, exhaust fumes were
reported by the operator. Following review by maintenance personnel, the licensee made the
determination that this was a normal condition and the decision to load the EDG was made.
Approximately 16 minutes into the full load run, the operators identified visible flames near the
exhaust manifold in the vicinity of the turbochargers. The A EDG was immediately unloaded,
shutdown, and declared inoperable; operators extinguished the fire using an extinguisher.
The licensee initiated CR-18-05016 to document the event, perform an investigation of the
cause, and implement repairs.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective action program (CAP) database and noted
that on August 23, 2018, the licensee initiated CR-18-03451 to document an exhaust leak on
the A EDG near the turbochargers during a post-maintenance run. The CR was updated on
the following day to state that exhaust fumes were no longer visible when the EDG was
loaded to greater than 3000 kilo-watts due to suspected gasket leakage prior to exhaust
manifold warming up. The inspectors reviewed maintenance history and noted that the
exhaust manifold assembly on A EDG was replaced during the Fall refueling outage in 2015,
due to cracks in circumferential welds. Additionally, the B EDG exhaust manifold was
replaced during the Spring refueling outage in 2017, for similar reasons.
The inspectors reviewed the results of the investigation documented in CR-18-05016 and
noted the following comments: it was determined the exhaust manifold bellows flange
serving the #8, #9, and #12 cylinders nearest the right bank turbo was almost completely
disassembled and was the source of the significant exhaust leakage. Five of the six bellows
flange bolts had worked loose and had fallen off into the exhaust manifold shroud and/or
cover which provided approximately a 1/4 wide circumferential gap allowing exhaust gas
leakage. The inspectors noted the hot gas leakage along with residual oil led to the fire.
While the licensee did not perform an apparent cause evaluation, the inspectors noted that
related vendor drawing P12620219, Sheet 1 of 3, specified a torque value of 35 - 50 foot
pounds for the bolts which had loosened and fallen out of the exhaust bellows flanges. The
inspectors reviewed safety-related mechanical maintenance procedure, MMP-180.050,
Diesel Generator Exhaust Manifold Maintenance, XEG0001A/B-E, Revision 1, and noted
that step 7.2.4 stated, Tighten exhaust joints and bellows bolts wrench tight verifying bolts do
not protrude through the nut plate and contact the bellows. The inspectors noted there was
11
no torque specification for the bolting.
The inspectors concluded the licensee failed to adequately establish MMP-180.050 to
stipulate required torque specifications contrary to the requirements of TS 6.8.1a, which
states in part that written procedures shall be established covering the activities referenced in
Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Section 9, Procedures for Performing
Maintenance. Although the failure occurred during a refueling outage with the unit in a
defueled mode in which the A EDG was not required by TS or for risk mitigation, the
inspectors also concluded that had the A EDG been depended upon during its mission time
of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> during the previous operating cycle, the resulting vibration, loss of bolting
material, and resultant exhaust leakage most likely would have led to a fire event.
Additionally, the inspectors concluded that the licensee had opportunities for more timely
corrective action prior to the fire event when identified previously in CR-18-03451.
Corrective Action(s): The licensee implemented CR-18-05016 to identify causes and
appropriate corrective actions.
Corrective Action Reference(s): The licensee entered this issue into their CAP as CR-18-
05016. CR-18-03451 was also previously initiated for an exhaust leak on A EDG. WO 1818803 was initiated to correct the similar condition adverse to quality (CAQ) on B EDG.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to adequately establish MMP-180.050 with
required torque values which led to exhaust leakage and consequent fire event was a
performance deficiency (PD).
Screening: The inspectors determined the PD was more than minor because it adversely
affected the mitigating systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and
capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences
and the respective attribute of equipment performance relative to maintenance. Specifically,
the licensee failed to adequately establish MMP-180.050 with required torque values for
exhaust manifold bolting material.
Significance: The inspectors used IMC 0609, Significant Determination Process,
Attachment 4, dated October 7, 2016, and Appendix A - Exhibit 2, dated July 1, 2012, and
determined the finding was of very low safety significance or Green because the finding was
not a design deficiency or loss of function.
Cross-cutting Aspect: The inspectors reviewed IMC 0310, Aspects Within Cross Cutting
Areas, dated December 4, 2014, and determined the cause of this finding involved the cross-
cutting area of problem identification and resolution and the aspect of resolution, P.3,
because the licensee failed to take effective corrective actions commensurate with an issues
safety significance in that they failed to correct a CAQ involving the A EDG exhaust leak
documented in CR-18-03451.
Enforcement:
Violation: TS 6.8.1a states in part that written procedures shall be established covering the
activities referenced in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978.
Section 9 of RG 1.33 requires procedures for performing maintenance on safety related
12
equipment. MMP-180.050, Diesel Generator Exhaust Manifold Maintenance, XEG0001A/B-
E, Revision 1, was established to perform maintenance on the EDG exhaust manifolds.
Contrary to the above, on November 4, 2018, the licensee failed to adequately establish
MMP-180.050 to stipulate required torque specifications for bolting materials which led to
exhaust leakage and consequent fire event
Disposition: This violation is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the
Observation and Minor Violation for SW Pinhole Leaks 71152
Trend
Review
Minor Violation: 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for failure to
promptly identify and correct a condition adverse to quality (CAQ). Specifically, the licensee
did not initiate corrective actions related to cavitation damage on the downstream pipe tees for
the component cooling water heat exchanger discharge butterfly valves, XVB03123A&B-SW,
which are normally throttled for flow control. As a result, the piping tees were damaged to the
extent that multiple pinhole leaks developed requiring the licensee to seek NRC approval for
multiple relief requests and non-code repairs.
Screening: Because the licensee implemented prompt corrective actions during the
subsequent refueling outage and the components remained in an operable but degraded
condition, the inspectors identified this as a minor violation of Criterion XVI.
Enforcement: This failure to comply with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI constitutes a
minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs
Enforcement Policy. The licensee entered the multiple problems into their CAP as trend CR-
18-02820.
The inspectors performed a corrective action program (CAP) trend review for problems
related to service water (SW) pinhole leaks after facilitating multiple licensee requests for
temporary non-code repairs for SW pinhole leaks for emergency diesel generators (EDGs)
and component cooling water (CCW) heat exchangers (Hx) over the previous inspection
quarters. Additionally, the inspectors noted the licensee initiated CR-18-02820 for a similar
trend and to also perform a common cause evaluation. Specifically, the inspectors identified
14 CRs for SW pinhole leaks and are listed in the documents attachment.
The inspectors had previously documented CAP observations and a minor violation regarding
cavitation damage downstream of throttled butterfly valves in NRC Integrated Inspection
Report 05000395/2018001. The observations discuss historical aspects of cavitation damage
relating to the downstream SW piping for the EDGs. The inspectors identified additional
historical information relating to the licensees awareness of the cavitation issues associated
with throttle butterfly valves, XVB03123A&B-SW.
- An engineering Technical Work Record, TWR-LS11312, dated May 18, 2005,
evaluated wall thinning downstream of a butterfly valve, XVB03125A-SW, throttled for
back-flushing of CCW Hxs. The TWR stated, The CC Hx valves are manufactured
by Henry Pratt and the Henry Pratt Company recommends that their butterfly valve not
13
be used for throttling with less than a 15 degree opening or when cavitation can
occur.
- An engineering services procedure, ES-505, Service Water System Corrosion Control
and Monitoring Program, inspection of XVB03123B-SW on May 6, 2008, had pictures
of the gate valve which exhibited cavitation damage.
- An ES-505 inspection of XVB03123A-SW on October 27, 2009, had pictures of the
gate valve and downstream piping. The inspectors noted both components exhibited
indications of cavitation damage when compared to other components with known
cavitation damage. The inspectors noted the licensee documented the inspection was
performed for suspected cavitation but there were no indications of cavitation.
- An ES-505 inspection conducted on the same valve on October 27, 2012, stated, The
valve body and disc had areas of moderate cavitation damage from years of throttling.
The inspectors identified pictures with similar cavitation damage as shown in the 2009
pictures of the same component. The inspectors also noted the licensee failed to
provide any documentation of the downstream piping tee.
- The inspectors identified historical operating experience (OE) documents within the
licensees OE files discussing the cavitation phenomenon with one of the primary
causes as the throttling of butterfly valves for flow control.
Licensee Identified Non-Cited Violation 71124.01
Inspection
Results
This violation of very low safety significant was identified by the licensee and has been
entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a Non-Cited
Violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Violation: TS 6.8.1, Procedures and Programs, requires, in part, that written procedures be
implemented covering the activities recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33,
Rev. 2, Section 7(e), Radiation Protection Procedures. Specifically, VCS-HPP-0160.001,
Radiological Posting and Labeling, Revision 1, Attachment II, HRA, LHRA, and VHRA Down-
Posting Checklist, states in part, that prior to actual down posting, HP survey the area to
confirm radiation levels do not exceed criteria for down-posted conditions prior to worker
access.
Contrary to the above, on November 3, 2018, prior to an actual down posting, the licensee did
not conduct a survey of the area to confirm that radiation levels did not exceed criteria for
down-posted conditions prior to worker access. Specifically, after the HRA boundary around
the reactor head was moved on November 3, 2018, a survey was not performed until the next
shift by an HP who identified dose rates up to 110 mr/hr at 30 cm outside the posted HRA
boundary.
Significance/Severity Level: The inspectors reviewed Inspection Manual Chapter 0609,
Appendix C, Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, dated
August 19, 2008, and determined the finding was of very low safety significance, Green,
because the finding was not related to the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA)
planning, did not involve an overexposure or substantial potential for overexposure, and the
ability to assess dose was not compromised.
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee has documented this problem in their CAP as CR-
18-05037.
