SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION The Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) conducted its first evaluation of Duquesne Light Company's (DLC) Beaver Valley Power Station during the weeks of July 20 and July 27,1981. Beaver Valley Power Station consists of one 833 megawatt (net electrical) Westinghouse pressurized water reactor plant.

The site is located on the Ohio River, 25 miles from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The plant was placed in commercial operation in December 1976.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE INPO conducted an evaluation of site activities to make an overall determination of plant operating safety, to evaluate management systems and controls, and to identify areas needing improvement. Information was assembled from discus-sions, interviews, observations, and reviews of plant documents.

The INPO evaluation team examined station organization and administration, training, operations, maintenance, radiological and chemistry activities, and site '

technical support. Corporate activities were not included in the scope of the evaluation, except as an incidental part of the station evaluation. As a basis for the evaluation, INPO used performance objectives and criteria relevant to each of the six areas examined; these were applied and evaluated in light of both the experience of team members and INPO's observations of best practices within the industry.

INPO's goal is to assist member utilities in achieving the highest standards of excellence in all phases of nuclear plant operation. Accordingly, the conditions found in each area were compared to best practices, rather than to minimum acceptable conditions or requirements.

I DETERMINATION i

i Within the scope of this evaluation the team determined that the plant is being l

operated in a safe manner by qualified personnel. Certain beneficial practices and accomplishments were noted by the evaluation team:

i Extensive efforts have been made in the development of the system training manuals.

l l

The instrument planning aid, which contains the location of every l

instrument in the plant, is beneficial.

l l

The efforts to control and minimize materials taken into containment have reduced solid waste volume significantly for the last two years.

l d

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)-

Page 2 Improvements were recommended for the following general conditions:

Management and supervisory personnel need to be more involved in observing and evaluating plant operations.

-~

A program for the reduction of operator errors is needed.

Operator manning needs strengthening, as indicated by the current four-shif t schedule.

Training for non-licensed operators needs improvement.

~

Preventive and corrective maintenance backlogs appear excessive.

Additional trained personnel are needed in maintenance and technical support.

Industrial safety rules need more vigorous enforcement.

Housekeeping is in need of significant improvement.

Specific evaluation findings and recommendations are contained in the accom-panying DETAILS, and information of an administrative nature is included in the ADMINISTRATIVE APPENDIX.

These findings were presented at an exit meeting at the plant on July 31,1981.

Recommendations are intended to augment Duquesne Light Company's efforts to achieve the highest standards in its nuclear operations. Certain findings may reflect multiple deficiencies within a particular area. Therefore, in addressing these findings and recommendations, the company should lock beyond correction of the specific deficiencies and address corrective actions toward the underlying issues.

The findings and responses were reviewed with DLC management on October 8, 1981. DLC responses are considered adequate. To follow the completion of improvements included in the responses, INPO requests written notif!:ation of status six months after the date of this repart.

The evaluation team appreciates the cooperation received from all levels of the Duquesne Light Company.

Page 3 DUQUESNE LIGHT COMPANY Response Summary Duquesne Light Company is dedicated to the safe operation of the Beaver Valley Power Station and appreciates the INPO contribution made during the evaluation in July 1981. A new organization was in the process of being implemented at the time, and the INPO ideas and recommendations provided valuable assistance to management in identifying areas in need of improvement.

Duquesne Light Company appreciates the acknowledgment of our accomplish-ments in the development of system training manuals, the instrument planning, and the solid radioactive waste reduction program.

Duquesne Light Company concurs with INPO in the need for improvements and believes a major contribution to an overall improvement in plant activities was already undertaken in s major reorganizational effort through the creation of four nuclear departments reporting to a Nuclear Division Vice-President.

The number of supervisory and management positions has been increased, and the

~

development of a managemerit/ supervisory job activity surveillance procedure is intended to increase their involvement in observing and evaluating plant opera-tions.

The development of a critique procedure is intended to provide maximum input into the evaluations of unusual plant events by personnel involved in the event and thereby aid in the determination of the root cause of the event. Corrective actions will be taken to prevent reoccurrence, including instances of operator error.

The training for non-licensed operators was improved with the development of the Non-licensed Operator Training Program, which includes formal classroom training as well as plant system checkoffs. The program was implemented in February 1981. The first group of non-licensed operators will be available to assume shift responsibilities in December.

The current four-shift operations schedule has been reevaluated and a five-shift rotation will be implemented.

The corrective maintenance backlog has been reduced by elimination of com-l pleted and duplicate items.

An evaluation of the preventive maintenance l

program is underway.

The shortage of trained personnel in maintenance and technical support gtwps is recognized; an aggressive recruiting program will be promptly undertaken.

The industrial safety program is a Company program and will be vigorously enforced at the Beaver Valley Power Station.

Working conditions will be evaluated for safety during the management / supervisory job activity surveil-lances, and this will result in greater emphasis on industrial safety. The removal of emergency plan responsibilities from the Fire and Safety Engineer will provide for his greater involvement in the industrial safety issues.

Page 5 DETAILS This portion of the report includes the detailed findings. It is composed of six sections, one for each of the major evaluation areas. Each section is headed by a summary describing the scope of the evaluation. The summary is followed by the specific findings, recommendations and utility responses related to INPO's-evaluation procedures.

Items that relate to criteria not included in INPO procedures but that are generally recognized as desirable, accepted techniques of industry and management are listed as General Criteria. The evaluation procedures used are listed in the ADMINISTRATIVE APPENDIX.

ORGANIZATION AND ADMINISTRATION In this area, the team evaluated the overall management of the plant from an administrative viewpoint.

This encompassed an assessment of the existing directives and procedures, as well as their effectiveness.

ORGANIZATIONAL OBJECTIVES (INPO Performance Objective OA.1)

The plant's method of promulgating goals and objectives was evaluated. This included the method of implementing actions and of providing a periodic assessment of progress.

Finding (Criterion E)

Although annual performance appraisals are performed for supervisors, and position descriptions do exist, the appraisals are not based on position descriptions.

Recommendation Revise the performance appraisal guidelines to require that future evaluations of supervisors be based on their position descriptions.

Response

New appraisal forms are being developed and will be implemented in 1982. The Nuclear Division is also preparing personnel rating guidelines based on job descriptions as well as other factors related to performance and job qualifications for 1982.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE (INPC Performance Objective OA.2)

The administrative organization of the plant was evaluated. The following key areas were reviewed: organization structure, position description utilization, performance evaluations and workload distribution.

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

  • Page 6 Finding (General Criterion)

The existing organizational structure does not promote efficient plant operation. Some individuals are not able to define their relationships and responsibilities to other organizational units. Division of work is not balanced, and the span of control of certain supervisors appears excessive.

Recommendation It is understood that Duquesne Light has a revised organizational struc-ture under development. Concurrent with the implementation of the new organizational structure, reporting relationships and responsibilities should be more clearly defined.

Response

The implementation of the new organizational structure includes definition of reporting relationships and responsibilities. This will be accomplished by January 1982.

MANPOWER RESOURCES (INPO Performance Objective OA.3)

The ability of management to fill all job positions with qualified people was evaluated.

Finding (Criterion A)

Manpower planning and recruiting efforts have not yet provided a sufficient number of qualified people to fill all required positions. As a result, many positions are filled with contractors and consultants on a continuing basis.

Recommendation Initiate an aggressive recruiting program to fill authorized staff posi-tions.

Response

The Company will initiate an aggressive recruiting program with the objective of having more than 90 percent of the Nuclear Division positions filled by July 1,1982.

1 a

~

BEAVER VALLEY (19811 Pags 16 1.

Finding (Criterion D)

Control room operators do not appear to have a high degree of confidence in the accuracy of their instruments. Delays in restoring out-of-service alarm modules to normal service are common. Many instru-ments are overdue for calibration.

Recommendation Implement an aggressive program to routinely monitor and correct instrument calibration deficiencies and out-of-service alarms. Provide feedback to station management when corrective work is not completed promptly.

Response

Restoration of all out-of-service alarm modules is in progress and is targeted for completion by the end of the second refueling. Additional-ly, increased emphasis and priority will be given to future out-of-service alarms. The existing problems with Category I calibrations have been identified as non-standard practices in the dating of stickers and out-of-date procedure frequency requirements.

There are no out-of-date calibrations on Category I instrumentation. The software changes will i

be issued prior to each procedure performance. Calibration frequencies l

for non-safety-related control room instrumentation are being reviewed with the completion scheduled for May 1982.

2.

Finding (Criterion K)

Persons passing through the control room to the Nuclear Shift Operating Foreman's desk and the Nuclear Shift Supervisor's office sometimes distract the control room operators from their normal duties by engaging them in casual conversation. This situation also contributes to the high noise level noted in the control room on several occasions.

Recommendation Implement more stringent policies for control' room access.

Response

Measures have been implemented to significantly reduce control room traffic.

These measures include utilization of the on-shift administrative assistant (see Response OP-1) to screen unnecessary visits. Shift turnover for auxiliary operators is now performed outside the control room. Some operations / maintenance interface activities in the control room have been eliminated.

Minimizing control room distraction will be a continuing management review function.

3.

Finding (General Criterion)

Analysis of past Licensee Event Reports and operational problems observed during the evaluation shows a large number of operator errors.

Increased management attention is needed in identifying the fundamental causes of these errors and implement!ng corrective measures.

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Page 17 Recommendation Institute an aggressive program to analyze operating experiences and provide feedback of the lessons learned to all operations personnel.

Additionally, emphasize to each individual his responsibilities and ac-countabilities for the safe and reliable operation of the plant.

Response

A critique procedure has been written and implemented. Included ese guidelines for dissemination and review of the critique results. Corree-tive actions to prevent recurrence will be identified as a result of the Information gathered in the critique. The root cause will be addressed in determining corrective actions.

The responsibilities and accountabilities for safe and reliable plant operation were discussed with operations personnel by station manage-ment and are included in the station administrative procedures.

PLANT OPERATIONS PROCEDURES (INPO Performance Objective OP.4)

The methods of maintaining plant status controls in support of equipment availability and~ safe, reliable plant operations were evaluated. Areas reviewed included administrative guidance on status controls, actual practices in use, and the responsibilities of senior licensed operators for reviewing and monitoring plant status.

1.

Finding (Criterion C)

The methods of maintaining plant status need to be formalized to ensure that comprehensive plant status is communicated from one shift to another.

Recommendation Formalize guidance for annotating valve diagrams and plant status boards. These methods of conveying plant status should be kept current and reviewed during shift turnover.

l i

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Page 18

Response

Formal guidance will be provided for maintaining the plant safety and non-safety-related status boards. Review of the status boards will be incorporated into the shift turnover checklist.

This action will be completed by November 30, 1981. Guidance on use of valve diagrams currently exists in the station manual.

2.

Finding (Criterion J)

Unapproved caution tags, drawings, and operating curves are posted throughout the plant.

Recommendation Develop and implement a policy to prevent the posting or use of uncontrolled labels, curves, notes, and instructions. This policy should include a mechanism to ensure that any necessary posted materials remain current and reflect approved operating information.

Response

An operating aid index is being developed to control operating in-plant procedures and tables. In-plant drawings will be added to the listing of the station controlled copy drawings and will be revised according to their procedures.

The above actions will be completed by November 30,1981.

3.

Finding (General Criterion)

Operations personnel need more effective management direction to ensure the timely return of a unit to power operation af ter a unit outage.

Recommendation Assign an appropriate manager overall responsibility for minimizing delays and problems during plant startup preparations and startups.

Response

Increased operating organization input and detail will be included in future plant scheduling. This increase in scope will be utilized by all station organizations to better coordinate group actions.

A startup manager will be utilized for extended outage recovery operations.

SHIFT TURNOVER (INPO Performance Objective OP.6)

The team examined the shift turnover process to determine if a continuous and correct understanding of plant conditions was conveyed between all shift positions.

1.

Finding (Criterion B)

Turnover checksheets are needed for shift positions outside the control room. The checksheets used by control room operators need to be expanded to ensure that complete plant status is communicated.

.2.

f BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Page 19 Recommendation Evaluate the shift turnover process and revise the turnover sheets to include all items appropriate for a complete turnover, including inoper-ative equipment, operations and testing planned or in progress, and reviews of pertinent logs / records. A separate turnover sheet should be established for each shift position.

Response

In addition to the existing control room personnel turnover lists, check-lists will be provided for all permanent watch station locations. Addi-r tionally, the turnover checklists will be expanded to include the recommendation items. Action will be completed by November 30,1981.

2.

Finding (Criterion C)

A review of the control boards should be performed regularly during shift turnover.

Recommendation Revise the turnover procedure to require a general review of the control room panels by all control room personnel and supervisors. This review I

should be conducted jointly between the oncoming and off-going oper-I ators during the turnover process or immediately after tv nover by the oncoming operator.

Recommendatioa Action should t.e taken to upgrade the cleanliness and storage of equipment in the shop areas.

Response

Recent increases in maintenance supervisory personnel (see MA.3, Finding 2) along with implementation of the management surveillance program and the housekeeping program have resulted in improved housekeeping.

f WORK CONTROL SYSTEM (INPO Performance Objective MA.3)

The effectiveness of the work control system was evaluated.

The system functions were checked to see if they promote adequate identification of potential work; define and authorize work to be performed by the maintenance groups; provide for planning, scheduling and control of actual work; and have a mechanism to input the maintenance results into an equipment history file for future evaluation.

1.

Finding (General Criterion)

A large volume of outstanding work was identified. Many items have been outstanding for a considerable period of time.

Recommendation Outstanding work should be reviewed on a periodic basis, and a plan should be developed to systematically reduce its volume. Management attention should be directed toward reducing obstacles to timely comple-tion of maintenance work and improving performance in this area.

Response

A management review of the outstanding work identified approximately one-half the Maintenance Work Requests were either invalid or previously completed.

An additional 20 percent required station shutdown conditions to be performed.

2.

Finding (Criterion G)

First-line maintenance supervists' access to work sites is restricted by security requirements to the extent that supervisory tours in vital areas are infrequent.

Recommendation Management should ensure that supervisors conduct surveys of mainte-nance activities during and after performance of work to ensure the expected results are achieved and good housekeeping practices are maintained. Efforts should be made to reduce the impact of security restrictions on supervisory personnel.

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Paga 23

Response

The addition of four supervisors to the maintenance organization has increased the supervisor / worm ratio and enables closer job follow and inspections. The security restrictions for supervisory personnel were removed.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (INPO Performance Objective MA.4)

The team evaluated the degree to which procedures enhance the quality and effectiveness of mr5.tenance activities. Procedures and manuals were examined to determine the types of maintenance covered, scope, level of detail, review and approval process, document control requirements, and methods of revision.

Finding (Criterion A)

Vendor manuals used in the work spaces and in the field are often not controlled copies. Controlled copies are maintained by the document center. However, because of the location of the document center, they are seldom used by maintenance personnel.

Recommendation Controlled copies of all manuals used in the performance of safety-related or critical balance-of-plant work should be maintained in the shop areas.

Response

A file of controlled copies of vendor manuals has been provided in the maintenance work area.

MAINTEN ANCE HISTORY (INPO Performance Objective MA.5)

Page 26 RADIOLOGICAL PROTECTION AND CHEMISTRY Radiological Protection and Chemistry were evaluated by reviewing the performance of radiological protection training, personnel dosimetry, external and internal radiation exposure, radioactive contamination control, and chemistry.

A number of good practices were observed in radiological protection. These practices included an effective solid waste reduction program, the requirement that workers demonstrate practical abilities du.-ing radiation worker training, positive controls over the issue and use of portable radiation survey instruments,.

and detailed guidelines for installation of temporary shielding.

f The most significant problem areas were the need for a formalized radiation exposure reduction program (ALARA), a more active involvement of the ALARA coordinator in exposure reduction, unnecessary generation of radioactive efflu-ents due to systems leakage, and training of plant chemists.

MANAGEMENT OF RADIOLOGICAL PROTECTION (INPO Performance Objective RC.1)

An evaluation was performed to determine the effectiveness of the management of the radiological protection program.

Finding There were no findings in this area.

i RADIOLOGICAL PROTECTION TRAINING (INPO Performance Objective RC.2)

Radiological protection training programs were evaluated to ensure that person-i nel have the knowledge and practical abilities necessary to implement radio-logical protection practices effectively.

Finding (Criterion B.1)

Contract laborers involved in the packaging and shipment of radioactive waste should be trained to perform all functions of their job. Specifi-

)

cally, personnel were not trained with regard to the burial site criteria, applicable regulations and plant radioactive waste procedures.

A formal radioactive waste shipment training program will be instituted in November 1981 and completed by May 1982. Interim training has been conducted for personnel engaged in radioactive waste shipments.

PERSONNEL DOSIMETRY (INPO Performance Objective RC.3)

An ev'aluation was performed to verify that personnel radiation exposures were being accurately determined and recorded.

Finding (Criterion C.4)

Comprehensive quality controls are needed for the plant's thermo-luminescent dosimetry (TLD) system. Blind, spiked TLDs were not being submitted to dosimetry technicians to check the accuracy of the TLD processing system. The plant formerly used a program of quality control checks, but stopped after participating in a nationwide program that showed acceptable performance.

Recommendation Reinstitute the program for testing the TLD processing system.

Response

The program for testing the TLD processing system will be reinstituted in November 1981.

EXTERNAL RADIATION EXPOSURE (INPO Performance Objective RC.4)

An evaluation was performed to determine if the plant was minimizing personnel external radiation exposure.

1.

Finding (Criterion A)

A formal personnel radiation exposure reduction program (ALARA) is needed. While significant exposure reduction efforts were implemented for some specific jobs during the 1980 outage, approximately 500 man-rem of the plant's 550 man-rem of exposure in 1980 resulted from work that received no input from the ALARA coordinator. It is understood that the procedure for ALARA implementation is under review.

Recommendation Expand the ALARA coordinator's involvement in the ALARA program to include preplanning for specific jobs, following exposure trends, and initiating corrective action if exposure trends or accumulations are excessive. Exposure goals should be established for jobs with significant anticipated exposures. Overall annual exposure goals are recommended.

i

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Page 28

Response

A Radeon procedure for ALARA implementation has been prepared and has been reviewed by the On-site Safety Committee. Radeon personnel are being trained to the new procedure.

Exposure goals will be established by January 1982, and trend analyses will be performed.

2.

Finding (Criterion B.1) r Multiple point calibrations need to be performed. on portable radiation survey instruments.

Recommendation Calibration procedures should be changed to incorporate the guidance given in sections 4.1 and 4.22 of ANSI N 323-1980 " Radiation Protection Instrumentation Test and Calibration."

Response

All Radeon instrument procedures are being revised or rewritten to incoporate multipoint calibration requirements. These procedures will be revised or rewritten by November 30,1981.

(~

I 3.

Finding (Criterion B.3)

The sources used for calibrating radiation survey instruments are not capable of delivering the exposure rates necessary for calibration of.

high-range instruments.

Recommendation Establish a program of periodic calibrations for high-range instruments.

Guidance in ANSI N 323-1980 should be used as a basis for incorporating these changes.

Response

High-range instruments are currently sent to a vendor for periodic calibrations.

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Page 30 CHEMISTRY (INPO Performance Objective RC.10)

The chemistry program was evaluated to determine if accurate measurements and effective control of chemistry parameters were being maintained.

1.

Finding (General Criterion)

The plant chemists hired within the last year have not received training in basic nuclear physics or reactor theory as specified in the training r

procedure. Chemists should also receive. systems training. A retraining program is needed.

Recommendation Reinstitute nuclear physics as part of chemistry training.

Provide specific training in plant systems, and establish a retraining program for chemistry personnel.

Response

A formal training program will be developed for chemists to familiarize them with plant systems and nuclear physics. Retraining on applicable system modifications will be conducted by June 1982.

I 2.

Finding (General Criterion)

The two exhaust hoocs in the chemistry laboratory used for analysis of radioactive samples were not providing specified exhaust flow.

Recommendation Repair the exhaust hoods.

Consider installing flow indicators and establishing a routine check of the hood exhaust flow.

Response

Repair actions and flow indication purchase were in progress prior to the evaluation visit and finding. Hood air flow has been reestablished and the flow meter is on order. Additionally, other chemistry exhaust hoods were verified to have sufficient flow.

3.

Finding (General Criterion)

Chemistry laboratories appeared cluttered and disorderly. Equipment la-beled as radioactive was not adequately segregated from non-radioactive materials.

Recommendation Remove unnecessary equipment and material from the laboratories.

Segregate radioactive materials from non-radioactive materials.

Response

A laboratory cleanup has been conducted and unnecessary equipment removed. The hot lab has always been a controlled area separated into three radioactive control levels. This segregation is not absolute, as some apparatus must be utilized in all three areas.

BEAVER VALLEY (1981)

Paga 31 TECHNICAL SUPPORT An evaluation was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the on-site technical support function.

Specific areas evaluated included organizational structure and size, plant efficiency and reliability, assessment of operating experiences, coordination of plant modifications, and reactor engineering activ-ities.

ON-6tTE TECHNICAL SUPPORT ORGANIZATION AND ADMDHSTRATION (INPO Performance Objective TS.1)

An evaluation was performed to determine if on-site technical support is effectively organized and adequately staffed. The capability to perform all assigned duties and responsibilities, and training to enhance engineering skills were examined.

1.

Finding (Criterion A-4)

Reactor engineering tasks need to be better organized and more clearly defined. These tasks are currently performed by four different super-visors at the plant and one supervisor at the corporate office.

Recommendation Reactor engineering tasks should be defined and written into job descriptions and qualifications. An organization should then be formu-lated to support these tasks and provide responsibility and accountability for task completion.

Response

The position of Reactor Engineer will be deleted in the new station organization scheme. Reactor engineering duties will be reassigned to the Testing Group, the Operations Group, and the Analytical Services Group as appropriate. Reactor engineering responsibilities for each of these groups will be clearly defined and documented during this reassignment evolution.

2.

Finding (Criterion C)

Technical support personnel need more effective continuing training.

Although some general training has been provided for test engineers and design engineers, no commitment to an ongoing program to improve and develop skills, maintain personnel cognizant of the state-of-the-art changes, and provide specific plant systems training was evident.

Recommendation Implement a training program for on-site technical support personnel.

The program should address plant systems and components, specialized engineering knowledge and skills, and management techniques. On-site technical support personnel should also be encouraged to cttend seminars and conferences within the areas of their responsibility.

Response

A formal training program will be developed for technical support personnel, as noted in the above recommendation, during 1982.
