i Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Items of Interest Week Ending November 5, 1993 Brunswick Units 1 and 2 The licensee is preparing the setup for the electric discharge machining (EDM) equipment that will be used to machine the bolt holes for the core shroud clamp modification. The EDM will start on November 6, 1993, and the modification should be completed by December 6, 1993. The core shroud repair, control blade installation, and core reload remain as the critical path activities for the restart of Unit I scheduled for early January 1994.
Palo Verde The Unit 1 eddy current inspection has been compieted. Tube plugging is almost complete.
Steam genera +. 21 has 56 tubes plugged this outage; steam generator 12 has 131 (these numbers include tubes plugged for preventative reasons). No freespan axial indications were identified (similar to the numerous indications found in the " arc" on the most recent Unit 2 inspection).
However, numerous tubesheet circumferential cracking indications (almost all in the sludge pile) were identified.
The licensee's eddy current report was received on November 3, 1993. A meeting is planned for November 9 with APS ar.d Region V to discuss the results.
The licensee is still preparing its eddy current inspection plan for the upcoming Unit 3 outage (plant shutdown expected in late November). The Unit 2 mid-cycle inspection is scheduled for early January 1994.
i Palisades This highlight is an update of the Palisades activities regarding the pressurizer nozzle crack.
At 11:15 a.m. on November 3,1993, the Palisades reactor reached criticality.
This is the first time the Palisades reactor is at power since their shutdown i
for a refueling outage on June 5.
Due to problems during the outage with fuel handling activities and a crack in a pressurizer nozzle, the outage was extended several months.
The staff is continuing its review of the licensee's engineering analyses regarding the pressurizer nozzle crack and plans to issue a Safety Evaluation later this month.
System 80+ SGTR lssue r
On October 27, 1993, the staff met with ABB-CE to discuss the System 80+ issue of containment bypass that may result from a steam generator tube rupture.
l The discussion focused on the enhanced features of System 80+ over the t
System 80 designs regarding mitigation of Steam Generator Tube Rupture (SGTR) events, especially the design change to ensure continuous operation of the Turbine Bypass Control System (TBCS) upon a Safety Injection Actuation System (SIAS) actuation, and the installation of N-16 radiation monitors in the main t

2 steam lines. These and other enhancement features provide the operator with better diagnostics for the SGTR events, and provide the operator with extended time before the main steam safety valves (MSSVs) are challenged in the event of a SGTR.
The intent of these changes is to reduce the probability of operator errors in the SGTR mitigation and recovery actions.
The staff concludes that these improvements should result in a significant reduction in challenges to the MSSVs; and, therefore, this issue is technically resolved.
As a follow-up action, ABB-CE will provide more detailed information for staff review related to the TBCS operability after an SIAS actuation, a comparison of system response to a SGTR event for the System 80+ design with and without these enhancements, and updated emergency procedure guidelines that properly reflect the new design features.
NUMARC-Industry Thermo-lea Workshop On December 1 and 2, 1993, the Nuclear Management and Resources Council (NUMARC) will hold an industry workshop on Thermo-Lag fire barriers in Baltimore, Maryland.
NUMARC will present the results of Phase 1 of its fire test program and will discuss future plans.
NRC staff will attend the workshop.
Emergency Preparedness Counterpart Teleconference On November 2,1993, PEPB conducted the monthly telephone conference with the Emergency Preparedness groups in all five Regions.
The following topics were discussed:
impending FEMA reorganization, guidance on emergency worker dose limits, and experience with accountability drills at power plants.
Poor performance in accountability drills is on the list of issues for restart at South Texas.
It was determined during the conference that some other plants in other Regions are having performance problems in this area.
PEPB agreed to examine the issue of acceptance criteria for accountability drills.
ACRS Briefina on ABWR instrumentation and Control System desian On November 2, 1993, GE Nuclear and the staff of the Instrumentation and Controls Systems Branch (HICB), NRR briefed the ACRS ITAAC Subcommittee on the final ABWR instrumentation and control (I&C) system design, associated design certification material and the staff's acceptance of the design for certification under 10 CFR Part 52.
GE representatives described the basic 1&C system architecture, functional design requirements, and the associated ITAAC for implementation of the design in accordance with an approved digital system design development process. The HICB staff described the criteria and basis for its acceptance of the ABWR design including the features provided to meet the Commission approved digital 1&C system diversity position.

decontamination and decommissioning of the site.
Technical Assistance Contractors Travel to Licensee Facilities During the period October 13-28, 1993, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission sponsored travel by two members of the Savannah River Technology Center (SRTC) of the Department of Energy to three NRC-licensed fuel fabrication facilities.
The SRTC is currently under contract with the NRC to develop, among other 1
things, a guidance document on Integrated Safety Analysis.
The travel was intended to provide an opportunity for the SRTC members to familiarize themselves with typical fuel cycle facilities, to obtain first-hand information on the methods of safety analysis used by the facilities, and to assess their capabilities for performing Integrated Safety Analyses. The i
facilities visited were those of Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Columbia, South Carolina; Babcock and Wilcox Company and B&W Fuel Company, both at j
Lynchburgh, Virginia; and General Electric Company, Wilmington, North Carolina. An NRC staff member accompanied the SRTC members, and plant tours and discussions with the facility staff were held at each stop.

Meetina with Envirocare on License ADolication Analyses On November 4,1993, Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) staff met with Envirocare of Utah, Inc. (Envirocare) to discuss possible changes to operations at its proposed 11e.(2) byproduct material disposal facility from those presented in its current license application. These changes are to allow more operational flexibility due to customer i
considerations. During the meeting, Envirocare discussed possible actions it could take that would justify changes in the operating parameters incorporated i
in the license as conditions.
It was emphasized to Envirocare that the license conditions were based on the information presented in its license application, and that if Envirocare wanted to obtain more operating flexibility, it needed to present additional analyses establishing new i
operating bounds. Envirocare stated that the information presented in the application was intended to demonstrate expected operating situations, and was not intended to set bounds on operations.
NMSS management explained that because the situations presented in the application are the basis for analysis of the facility, these become the bounds placed on operations.
Envirocare stated that it understood this position, and agreed to determine what analyses would be needed to justify different operating parameters.

Technical Trainina Center (TTC) 1 The Shoreham simulator (BWR/4 design) has been acquired through a contract l
with Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO). The simulator has now been moved from the LILCO site to the S3 Technologies Company's facility in Columbia 1
Maryland. The simulator move contract with S3 Technologies provides for i
3 months storage while space at the TTC is being acquired and includes the provision for additional. storage time, if needed.
Efforts continue with GSA l
to acquire suitable space within the TTC building. Once the Shoreham simulator is operational at the TTC, the major reactor technology training programs in the General Electric design will be shifted from the-BWR/6 to the BWR/4 base.
TTC staff members provided technical support to the Human Factors Branch of RES by providing simulation data for a research project to study ways of measuring cognitive workload that may be associated with operator needs to navigate through hierarchical display screens that may be presented through i
j advanced control room interfaces. The simulation data obtained will be used to enhance the realism of the testing scenarios which will be accomplished through a series of laboratory studies using a part-task simulator at ORNL.
On November 5, management from AE0D briefed the ACRS'on the existing NRC Technical Training Program. The briefing described the training resources, current needs reevaluation, TTC facilities, staff qualification and training programs, existing curriculum areas under the TTC purview, simulator programs, and high technology training enhancements being used or developed.

The action was based on violations found in operations conducted on federal property under reciprocity, including failures to perform adequate surveys, to properly post high radiation and radiation areas, to provide training to an assistant radiographer, to block and brace material during transport, and failure of an assistant radiographer to wear an alarm ratemeter.
The improper survey and ratemeter violations were assessed at Severity Level III and were repeat violations.
Both violations were escalated for NRC identification and for poor past performance.
In addition, Demands for Information are being issued to the licensee and to the radiographer.

University of Viroinia-Research Reactor The University of Virginia has detected a leakage of water from the pool of water surrounding the research reactor. The rate of leakage is estimated to be 100 gallons per day as determined by pool level decrease. The licensee has pool water makeup capacity exceeding this rate.
The pool is a concrete structure 32 feet long,12 feet wide and 26 feet j
deep containing approximately 75,000 gallons of water. The licensee has i
not identified the exact location of the leakage, but is obtaining the services of a contractor to repair the source of the leakage. The licensee indicates that if water leaks outside the building, the pathway would be into a retention pond next to the reactor building. Measured radioactivity levels in water samples from the pool and pond are well below 10 CFR Part 20 limits for release to unrestricted areas. The licensee has an alarm if the pool water level drops to a predetermined level which is 19 feet above the top of the reactor fuel. The alarm system activates an automatic telephone notification of designated licensee individuals. The licensee will be analyzing water samples from the pool and pond on a daily basis until the cause of the leakage is identified and corrected. The licensee will also be conducting surveillance to note status of pool water level during periods when the reactor is not operational and reactor operators are not at the facility.
The Region has notified the Commonwealth of Virginia and is continuing to follow the licensee actions. The Region and the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation requestad the licensee to analyze water from the reactor pool and the pond for radioactivity on a daily basis.
