ENCLOSURE 1 i
ASSESSMENT OF LICENSEE READINESS FOR RELEASE FROM NRC APPROVAL POINT NUMBER 5 PERMITTING OPERATION TO FULL POWER I.
Background
NRC Confirmatory Action Letter No. 86-10 of April 12, 1986 and the August 27, 1986 supplemental letter identified specific +.echnical issues to be resolved prior to facility restart.
In addition, due to other long-term management, hardware and program issues, Boston Edison Company (BECo) sub-mitted a formal power ascension program to the NRC. As specified in the licensee's NRC-accepted Power Ascension Test Program, the licensee must obtain the NRC Region I Regional Administrator's agreement to proceed be-yond the 75% NRC approval point to full power. The program includes NRC Regional Administrator approval points at 5%, 25%, 50%, 75% of full power, as well as requiring a licensee formal assessment and NRC review after completion of the Power Ascension Program, which includes tasting at full
- power, By letter dated August 18, 1989, Mr. Thomas T. Martin, Acting Regional Administrator for NRC Region I, authorized BECo to proceed beyond the fourth approval point and conduct power operations up to 75% of full power. This enclosure provides the NRC Restart Assessment Panel's evalu-ation of licensee performance since the licensee's request for release from the fourth approval point.
II.
Chranology of Significant Plant Events August 18, 1989 Licensee received NRC agreement to proceed from fourth NRC approval point.
August 21, 1989 Licensee completed surveillance tests on the main turbine, turbir.e control /stop valves, turbine by-pass valves, main steam isolation valves and jet pump calibrations at 60% power and the plant sub-sequently reached 75% power.
August 24, 1989 The test program was completed at the 50% - 75%
power plateau as described in the August 31, 1988 Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station Power Ascension Program.
2 August 30, 1989 The reactor automatically scrammed on high reactor vessel pressure. A random component failure, possibly due to aging, caused the failure of a potential transformer associated with the main voltage regulator. This caused a turbine runback and a reactor scram due to high reactor vessel pressure. All safety systems responded as de-signed.
Sertember 6,1989 The Pilgrim plant was taken critical at 10:16 p.m.
Sep: ember 18,1989 The licensee presented results of the Power
,3 Ascension Progra:n at the 50%-to-75% power plateau to the NRC Pilgrim Restart Assessment Panel and requested approval to proceed from PATP Approval Point No. 5.
III. Staff Evaluation 1.
The NRC Restart Assessment Panel considered the following approval poirs release criteria to evaluate the conduct of the Pilgrim Power Ascension Test Program and consider approval of the licensee's con-tinuation of power ascension up to full power:
a.
Plant status and equipment operability b.
Management /persontiel performance and oversight activities c.
Power Ascension Testing Program adequacy d.
Power Ascension Test Program results e.
NRC inspection coverage and program status 2.
Staff assessment of licensee performance is as follows:
a.
Plant Status and Equipment Operability The licensee has determined and the NRC is satisfied that all equipment required for continuation of the Power Ascension Pro-gram is operable. When equipment inoperabilities have occurred, the licensee has generally handled them conservatively and with-in Technical Specification requirements.
Required non-safety-related equipment is in a condition that supports safe plant operation.
Surveillance tests are up-to-date with no signi-ficant identified discrepancies.
The licensee's management re-view of facility operation up to seventy-five percent power is complete. Operation of the facility was conducted in a safe manner and concerns raised by the NRC and BECo management re-garding facility operations were appropriately addressed.
+
3 On August 30, 1989, while the reactor was at about 75 percent power, a potential transformer associated with the main voltage regulator failed. This caused a turbine runback and a reactor scram due to reactor vessel high pressure.
The root cause of l
the potential transformer failure was determined to be a random component failure, possibly age related. The failure of the l
potential transformer caused the voltage to the electrical grid and to the Unit Auxiliary Transformer to rise and exceed 115% of
)
the normal operating voltage.
The licensee replaced the poten-1 tial transformer and performed electrical testing of the main generator, main transformer and those safety-related loads that were running on the buses at the time. The licensee's correc-tive actions with respect to this transient were appropriate, t
Thorough rost cause analysis demonstrated that safety-related i
equipment did not exceed the maximum voltage requirements of the equipment.
As discussed in the previous NRC Approval Point Release Memo for release to 75% power, the licensee continues to experience con-denser biofouling problems, necessitating routine power reduc-tions for thermal backwashing at a frequency of approximately i
once per week.
l In summary, the NRC Re' start Assessment Panel is satisfied that all equipment required for continuation of the Power Ascension Program is operable.
b.
Management / personnel Performance and Oversight Activities The NRC Restart Staff has continued to monitor management and personnel performance on an as-needed, around-the-clock basis since startup. BECo management has been found to be generally responsive to NR0 concerns and to perform in a cautious, de-liberate manner.
Licensee peer evaluators were observed and have been providing good feedback to plant personnel. Operators l
were generally knowledgeable of their duties and plant condi-tions and management maintains an active and effective oversight j
of operations.
The licensee has recognized that there were several lapses of performance during this plateau.
These fell into two areas, each with two examples.
The first area involved initial slow-ness, with NRC questioning required, to fully analyze the poten-tial for effects on safety related equipment of the following:
(1) The overvoltage transient resulting from the voltage regu-lator failure of August 30, and (2) A licensee finding that holddown bolts on a spent fuel pool cooling pump has, at some unknown time in the past, been filed down to less than nominal diameter.
7
l 1
4 j
The second area of performance lapse involved failure to follow f
procedures as follows:
(1) During inspection of holddown bolts on a sampling of pumps in response to the bolting concern addressed above, one 1
maintenance team overtorqued bolts during reinstallation, and l
(2) An effluent release was approved even though computer cal-culations indicated the release did not meet procedural limits for discharge.
(Actually, a data entry error had occurred and effluent radicactivity was well within limits.)
l In each case, the licensee's eventual response was thorough and i
included appropriate reviews, evaluations, and physical inspec-tions.
In addition. the licensee conducted an expanded self-l assessment before approaching the NRC Restart Assessment Panel to propose release from the 75% approval point.
Evaluations by line management, peer evaluators, and Quality Assurance person-nel, as reviewed by the Management Oversight and Assessment Team (MOAT), indicated that progress is being made on areas pre-viously identified as needing management attention but addi-tional emphasis is warranted in several areas, including strict procedural compliance, attention to administrative details, and l
some aspects of the corrective action process (clearinghouse).
The licensee also believes that some recent organizational changes will accelerate progress in some areas. These changes include (1) creation of a Vice President - Nuclear Administra-tion position under a recently-hired former Navy Admiral, and (2) elevation of the Regulatory Affairs organization to full department level with full-time representative on the MOAT.
The Panel has reviewed the above issues and licensee evaluations and determined that (1) appropriate actions were taken in re-sponse to individual events and (2) the licensee continues to t
aggressively pursue a consistently high level of performance.
The NRC Restart Assessment Panel has concluded that the licensee management and plant staff performance support proceeding to full power.
The licensee's performance will continue to be re-viewed during the full power plateau of the Power Ascension Test Program (PATP). Also, the NRC Restart Staff will evaluate an upcoming mid-cycle outage, as well as the licensee's return to power following that outage.
The NRC Restart Assessment Panel will review the results of the Restart Staff inspections and will evaluate the licensee's PATP final assessment report in conjunction with panel deliberations regarding potential final closure of Confirmatory Action Letter 86-10.
5 l
i c.
Power Ascension Testing Program Adequacy i
The licensee's Power Ascension Test Program continues in accord-i ance with the licensee's commitments documented in the December 30, 1988 supplement to Confirmatory Action Letter 86-10. No l
significant problems or technical issues are outstanding as a t
result of implementing this program.
By letter dated July 12, 1989, the licensee indicated intent to defer the second phase of the Shutdown from Outside the Control Room Demonstration from its originally scheduled test plateau (50%) to the Fall 1989 maintenance outage. The staff found this approach acceptable and documanted staff agreement in a letter to the licensee on August 18, 1989.
l d.
Power Ascension Test Program Results L
The NRC is satisfied that tests and conditions required to be completed by the licensee during performance of the NRC-accepted Power Ascension Program up to 75 percent of rated power have been completed.
Satisfactory results were achieved during the performance of.
(1) Reactor Engineering Testing (2) Drywell Temperature Profile Measurements Also, the NRC evaluated licensee management and plant staff per-formance during planned periods of normal operations at about 75% of rated power. During this period, licensee management had, as planned, reduced the level of operations oversight. The NRC panel has concluded that plant operations are being con-ducted safely and conservatively.
The NRC has reviewed BEco's actions in response to inspection findings which had potential to impact further reactor opera-tions and found no outstanding issues which would preclude the licensee from proceeding to full power.
e.
NRC Inspection Coverage and Program Status The NRC integrated inspection plan covering activities from 75%
to full power has been approved. The inspection plan and in-spection coverage levels are equivalent to those delineated in the Pilgrim Restart Staff Operating Plan dated Octc,ber 13, 1988 for the Power Ascension Test Program.
There are no open allegations at Pilgrim affecting this recom-mendation.
One recently received allegation is presently under review by the NRC.
r h
af L
6 There are no enforcement actions pending which would preclude continued plant operations.
On August 23, 1989, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty for the April 12, 1989 RCIC system overpressurization event.
However, the licensee had already implemented corrective ac-tions.
Reviews by the NRC Staff indicated that the corrective actions for those events were acceptable and formed a reasonable basis to conclude that such events would not recur. NRC Region I Inspection Report 50-293/89-07 details three violations (Level IV) concerning the changeout of equipment and control identification name plates on control room front panels without procedural controls or a maintenance request, failure to perform an adequate procedurel review for the testing of logic relays, and having only one instrument channel in one trip system oper-able for the RCIC turbine compartment wall temperature detection function when two were required.
However, the Panel has deter-mined that corrective actions for these issues are sufficient to support continued plant operation. Therefore, the panel con-cludes that there are no pending enforcement issues which would preclude operation up to full power.
IV.
Conclusion The NRC continues to monitor facility operation and licensee actions in conjunction with the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station Power Ascension Pro-gram. The licensee has completed the activities of the Power Ascension Program from 50% to 75% power. BEco has conducted oversight of those ac-tivities, assessed performance ind requested agreement from NRC to proceed to the next NRC approval point of full power.
The NRC Power Ascension Program Restart Inspection Staff has monitored licensee activities and conducted an independent assessment of operational training, personnel and equipment performance. The licensee occasionally was slow in initially identifying potential safety concerns related to plant equipment.
How-ever, after questioning by the NRC Restart Staff, the licensee performed a thorough engineering analysis of the events and took appropriate correc-tive actions where warranted. Additionally, although isolated procedural compliance issues continue to exist, the licensee continues to aggres-sively pursue and emphasize strict procedural compliance. The NRC Restart Panel noted that the licensee approached plant operations in a generally conservative manner.
On September 18, 1989 the Pilgrim Restart Assessment Panel convened in the NRC Region I offices to review licensee readiness to proceed beyond 75%
power.
Presentations were made by the licensee and the NRC inspection 1
program Restart Manager.
The basis for the BEco performance evaluation conclusion was reviewed and NRC inspection activity results were assessed.
Based on these activities, the Restart Assessment panei is satisfied that plant operations up to full power can proceed in a safe and deliberate manner.

>11 grim Station Progress continues to be noted in the state of emergency preparedness for r
Pilgrim in the areas of training of personnel, in the identification and re-i solution of Reception Center issues, in supplying equipment to local towns, in the active and visible involvement in the review process by the Federal Emer-gency Management Agency (FEMA), and in the scheduling and planning for the October 1989 full participation emergency exercise.
Plymouth has 91 of 92 implementing procedures approved in concept by the Board of Selectmen. All 92 procedures have been forwarded to MCDA for review and Plymouth has authorized MCDA to forward all but the school committee procedure to FEMA. All procedures except the school procedure were subsequently forwarded to FEMA on August 8, 1989.
Plymouth has requested technical assistance from MCDA on the school procedure.
In Duxbury, all 44 of the procedures have been reviewed by the Department Heads and the review committee and were forwarded to the Board of Selectmen on May 1, 1989. On July 28, 1989, the Town of Duxbury voted to send the updated drafts of the Emergency Phn and Implementing Procedures to MCDA. They also requested MCDA to forward thest draf ts to FEMA for review and comment.
These were sub-sequently forwarded to FEMA on August 8, 1989.
The other towns have received a copy of the FEMA technical review of their emergency plaq and implen,enting procedures.
There are no major issues iden-tified and the towns are working to address FEMA comments.
Overall training continues to progress. The Commonwealth has been working closely with BEco and the towns to approve lesson plans.
To date, approxi-I mately 70% of training, (based upon BEco status) for state, federal and local agencies has been completed.
Progress continues on the reception centers.
In Taunton, all equipment is in place and available for use.
Staff has been identif ni for all reception center activities and training is escentially complete.
In Bridgewater, all l
equipment is in the town and available for use at the reception center.

2 The Public Information Brochure has been published; distribution began the week of August 21, 1989 and is complete.
The staff has continued to attend planning meetings with town Civil Defense Directors, local elected officials, Commonwealth and MCDA Area II officials that discuss the status of off-site emergency preparedness.
FEMA and the Commonwealth Secretary of Public Safety continue to hold regular meetings.
These meetings have been invaluable in addressing the remaining issues to be completed prior to the exercise.
FEMA continues to be actively involved with the Commonwealth and local towns, attending many meetings and work sessions, as well as the regular weekly planning meetings. A Regional Assistance Committee (RAC) meeting was held on September 6,1989 at which the Emergency Plan and Implementing Procedures for Plymouth and Duxbury were reviewed. No significant problems were noted.
Significant meetings scheduled include a September 28, 1989 follow-up meeting between FEMA and the Commonwealth Secretary of Public Safety and a RAC meeting on October 3, 1989.
The attached emergency preparedness summaries provide the September 8, 1989 status of selected emergency preparedness issues for each town surrounding the Pilgrim Station, the Commonwealth and MCDA Area II as compared to that of July 20, 1989. The staff provided the summaries to the respective town officials through the Civil Defense Directors of each area and subsequently contacted each official to verify the accuracy of the summaries.
