wAssmotom o. c. aosss NRC-lNSPECTION MANUAL poEa TEMPORARY' INSTRUCTION 2515/97, REVISION 1 MAINTENANCE INSPECTICH 2515/97-01 PURPOSE This temporary instruction (TI) provides guidance fore conducting a perfor-mance-based inspection of.an established and implemented maintenance process

, at cll operating nuclear power stations.

2515/97-02 OBJECTIVES The pricary objective of this TI is to detennine whether all components, systems, and structures of nuclear Wwer plants are adequately maintained so that-they can be relied upon to perfonn their intended' functions.

R' Additionally, this T1 should determine whether the maintenance process provides for the prompt repair of plant components, systems, and structures, as appropriate to their prescribed functions.

2515/97-03 BACKGROUND

. NRC has examined their nuclear power plant maintenance programs and has found a wide' variation in their effectiveness.

Inadequate maintenance has been a significant contributor to plant and system reliability problems and, thus, is a safety concern.

Analysis of operational events has shown that nuclear power plant components are not being maintained at a level of reliability-R commensurate with their-importance to safety.

This TI was ;ceveloped to inspect and assess.the-effectiveness of maintenance at selected nuclear power plant sites.

A Maintenance Inspection Tree (tree) will be used as guidance-during these inspections to - collate and present inspection findings.

The tree is intended.to provide a systematic approach-p

. to the performance of the inspections and to ensure a level of consistency.

R 2515/97-04 CONDUCTING TEAM INSPECTIONS The maintenance team inspections sill be announced when the team leader prepares for the p.e-inspection visit (Section 04.01) to the site. The full-scope inspection cycle will generally be of a 6-week duration, with the team leader possibly taking an additional 2 weeks to initially coordinate the inspection, gather infonnation, and issue the final inspection report.

Issue Date:

09/22/09 n

f

The (Jweeks nf; team _ ef f ort should gercrally consist of I week nf preparation.

$l week of)in-of fice inspection, I weeks of onsite inspection, and 2 weeks of-L g

l documentation.

The_ sequence-of the inspection _ effort will be_ determined by

~

the regional of fice.- For example,_ the 2 weeks uf onsite~ inspection may be-l consecutive or separett:d. hy I week of in-office inspection.

I Generally, the inspection team will be composed of the;following six members:

une team leader (region) two reactor / project engineers (region)_

one radiation specialist (region) two engineers (HQ)

The team composition and/or the extent-of effort for individual members may-bt adjusted by the region.

For example, the extent of involvement of the radiation, specialist may be less than 6 full weeks, as determined by the regional of fice.

In addition, the regions may include involvement of the resident inspector -(RI) ~to the extent that is normally covered by IP-62703 monthly examinations.

The RI should be provided training in the use of the logic tree by the appropriate team leader for this purpose.

The project manager (PM) will be generally involved with each inspection to' the following extent:

be available to the team leader to facilitate contacts with the licensee attend 1 to 2 days of the team preparation E attend final pre-exit team meeting attend exit meetings The team will determine what failures of significant equipment (probabilistic R

)

risk assessment (PRA)-identified, safety-related, or balance of plant (B0P) that' affects safety-related and special interest items) have occurred and will inspect the licensee's trending and maintenance activities to schedule, R

repair, and prevent further failure of - that equipment.

(lther selective examinations of equipment failures attributed to maintenance will be examined to determine the adequacy of licensee corrective actions and root-cause detenninations of the failures. W inspection should be performed following, review of the elements of the Maintenance Inspection Tree (tree) and the additional inspection guidance provided in the Maintenance Inspection Guid-ance Volumes I and II (separately distributed).

This guidance should be used as an aid in determining adequacy - and implementation of maintenance activities and to evaluate them. The tree is also used as a tool to provide a level of uniformity in inspection structure and in the preliminary recording of the inspection results, it is important to stress that the tree does not drive the inspecticn, but it does represent guidance in the areas of inspection to be considered in planning the scope of the inspection, with R inspection results recorded on the tree to the extent completed.

The tree consists of three major sections:

(1) Overall Plant Performance, (2) Management Support. of Maintenance, and (3) Maintenance implementation.

The inspection requirements for Haintenance Inplementation, which focus on the plant systems, components, test and surveillance data, and related 3

activities, will receive the major portinn (at least 80 percent, including direct observations of maintenance being performed) of the inspection effort.

Issue Date:

09/22/89 2510 97

iiu

" ' ' ' I t'. sheuld be recognized that irspection results fror; the Mointenance

', implementation,crea;will'also provide input tn the Nanagement Support area.

,I t

-it is expected that - portions of the-Management Support of Maintenance

-sections of the -_ tree, especially the Management Commitment and Management

. Organization sections, could be ' conducted by a single team merrber in :a relatively short time.

The amount of. inspection effort devoted to the. individual subsections of-the - tree wil's be determined by the regional office. taking into account inspection findings, time and staff limitations, and future inspec-recent tions planned to cover spscific areas.

The inspection is to determine the effectiveness of the total integrated maintenance - process of the power reactor licensees.

Therefore, the team inspection may be directed into areas for which explicit regulatory require-ments may not exist.

Thus, the inspection is oriented toward "nalyzing the performance of maintenance activities rather than toward the tientifi-cation of violations.; A specific example of an area not subject to explicit requirements is the licensee's participation with the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations _ (INPO).

Review of licensee resolution of INP0 activities shall be conducted in accordance with established policy and, thus, observa-tions in this area, when warranted, should be treated as indicators of strengths or weaknesses.

Although the inspection may result in the identification of inadequacies that are not covered by explicit regulatory requirements, there is no intent' to

" ratchet" licensees..

Individual findings that licensees are _ not following published NRC guides and industry guidelines do not necessarily indicate that a program or area is inadequate.

The goal' of the inspection effort is to j

emphasize the use of plant experience, test, reliability and surveillance R-data, component failures, PRA insights (available to the licensee or provided R

the team by the Risk Applications Branch), and items of interest in to evaluating the licensee's maintenance process in terms of capabilities and performance, and to identify major strengths and weaknesses as they are related to safety significance.

04.01-Team Leader Preparation.

A meeting should be held with the licensee to describe the scope. of the inspection and to obtain preliminary review materials, such as the licensee's procedures for planning, conducting and assessing - maintenance, as. well as organizational charts, work schedules, equipment lists, component failure and trending data, completed work orders, R and related quality control (QC) inspection procedures.

The material obtained by the team leader from the licensee should be distributed to the team members for their. review.

Following completion of the in-office review of the. licensee's maintenance process, the team leader will discuss the results of these reviews with the team members and factor them into the plan for the ' nsite inspection.

o 04.02 Inspection Preparation.

In preparation for site inspections, the inspection team should review the elements of the Maintenance inspection Tree to ' determine which areas may have received recent inspections, which areas may not be applicable, and which areas will be reviewed at the plant site.

The three major parts of maintenance (i.e.,

overall plant performance, management support of maintenance, and maintenance implementation) should be inspected to the degree required to provide a valid conclusion %garding the effectiveness of the licensee's maintenance program.

-During the prepa ra tion phase, the team should select ~ several components T l,1 and/or systems ' for detailed inspection either throuch' consideration of available PRA insights.-

licensing trending data, component-failures R fn safety-related or 80P systems that affect safety, or selected equipment of

[

heightened interest to the Commission, such as check valves, motor-operated

\\'

valves' solenoid-operated valves, and air systems.

The PRA insights may -

be used to - select-components or activities whose pottetial failures are predicted to' contribute most to the risk at that plant.

At least one high-risk: system should be included -to veri fy that all performance-related maintenance has been accomplished, including preventive maintenance. Equip-R j

ment failures provide a vehicle for review of various aspects of maintenance, s

including ront-cause analysis and trending, equipment history, corrective R actions, ~ and past maintenance (preventive or corrective).

Inspection of failed equipment repairs or work packages will provide the opportunity to examine the adequacy of the interaction of all licensee functions supporting maintenance,_ including engineering analyses and trending.

. Review of performance indicator data, systematic assessment of licensee performance (SALP) reports, previous inspection findings, licer.see event reports (LERs), maintenance radiation exposure history, and other direct j

measures may identify potential weak areas at that plant for. which more detailed inspection may be required.

Figure 1 (Inspection Flowchart) depicts the initiators that may be selected to enter the tree.

During the preparation phase, program strengths - and weaknesses in certain areas may be recorded on the Maintenance inspection Tree (working tree).

If there are sufficient data to provide an evaluation rating during the prepara-tion, the elements should be ra ted in accordance with the Maintenance Inspection Guidance.

However, selected items and, in particular, identified I

f weaknesses should be verified during the onsite inspection, even if an

(.

evaluation rating is assigned during the preparation.

04.03 Onsite Inspection.

An entrance meeting shall' be held with the licen-see tc. detail the scope and schedule of the inspection, introduce the team

.l members._ and establish the licensee's contacts for the inspection.

The team.should obtain from the licensee the status of ongoing work applicable to the inspection or that may affect the perfonnar.ce of the inspection or the.

inspection ' schedule.

Schedules and plans for the exit meetings and the interim meetings 'between the team. leader and licensee management should also

' be establisheo during the entrance meeting.

Team members shall perfonn a detailed walkdown inspection of the plant on the first 'or second day on site to observe the overall plant and equipment material condition.

This walkdown inspection, in which the team should i

observe the condition of numerous valves, pumps, motors, etc.,

should include, but not be limited to the following:

i Condition of components Significance of tagged equipment Housekeeping and environment Adequacy of labeling Comparisons with drawings and/or procedures Status nf annuncictors This walkdown inspection may provide indications of areas requiring further examination during the inspection.

When this analysis has been completd. an overall rating can be determined in accordance with the Maintenance inspection Guidance and Criteria.

04.05 Exit Meeting.

Before the final days of inspection, issues and I

findings should be reduced to definitive-writing and then used to highlight

- the presentation version of the Maintenance inspection Tree (the Presentation Tree), and to complete the rating roll-up.

The exit meeting should include a brief discussion of the preliminary inspection findings using the presenta-tion Tree to depict inspection results in a. summary fashion;;however, the licensee should be informed that the findings are preliminary until they are reviewed by regional management and the inspection report is issued.

04.06 Report Preparation.

Because of the' broad extent of the inspection, documentation of inspection activities should begin early in the process to minimize the time required to complete the final report.

The final report should document the assumptions used, the elements inspected, the elements that were not applicable, licensee conclusions consistent with IMC-0610. strengths and weaknesses, and overall The report should address elements of 1
