f I. - BACKGROUND 1 1

i The Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) units were shut down in March 1993 following a rupture of a 10-inch, Unit 2, No. 2 extraction steam line to a No. 2 feedwater heater. Significant

'i

- weaknesses were identified in the SQN erosion / corrosion (E/C) program that ultimately led i to unacceptable thinning and the subject rupture at power. A Confirmation of Action Letter  !

(Reference 1) was issued by NRC that documented agreements between TVA and NRC (see -

l Reference 2 TVA letter) regarding actions to be taken before the restart of either unit. ' The  !

actions addressed the evaluation of the specific event, E/C piping evaluation and repairs, E/C program upgrade, and review of other technical programs for similar potential weaknesses. i l

Prior to this event, a number of weaknesses in SQN's performance had been identified that resulted in regulatory noncompliances, adverse impacts on safety system availability, and )

plant trips and transients. Targeted improvement efforts had not been effective in achieving  ;

the requisite levels of improvement. In evaluating past performance and events, common i weaknesses continued to be identified in: control of configuration, control of work, i sensitivity to and focus on the balance of plant (BOP), personnel performance relative to  !

expectations, and program ownership. .l d

At the time of this event, actions were underway to carry out a comprehensive Site Improvement Plan (SIP), which includes broad initiatives both to address specific weaknesses (identified both internally and externally) and to target those areas most critical to overall TVA Generating Group objectives. Several specific ongoing initiatives included conducting a l comprehensive Secondary Plant Reliability Study, restructuring and reorganizing l imp!ementation and ownership for specific site technical programs, and concentrating i additional management talent and focus on improvements in the Operations department's performance. Accordingly, these same key focus areas - BOP, Technical Programs, and ,

Operations department's performance - were identified for improvement action ,

implementation before restart of the units. Weaknesses in these areas have been major contributors to past challenges to effective plant operations.

In analyzing the underlying causes of performance weaknesses over the past several years, l two key areas, both involving management effectiveness, were identified: ineffective -

resource management and ineffective personnel / management performance. Several improvement areas have been targeted for short-term focus, including reducing backlogs, >

improving work prioritization, clarifying the interface between the site and corporate y organizations, and continuing efforts to elevate overall site workforce effectiveness (people / culture / organization). In sum, restart initiatives were identified to correct not only  ;

the specific causes for the shutdown, but also to reduce impediments to effective plant j operations following restart.

.) !

A " restart list" containing specific detailed restart actions was developed utilizing input from .l a variety of sources. These included E/C associated corrective actions including technical )

l

}

program reviews, management review of the SIP areas (which included BOP and Operations l improvement action plans), soliciting feedback on significant problems from key employees' in targeted departments, review of internal and external reviews, review of backlog or open i items / issues, and system design reviews in targeted areas. I

)

As specific potential restart actions were identified, a Management Restart Review i Committee (MRRC), chaired by the SQN Site Vice President, was established to_ review and 'l approve (or disapprove) potential restart item / issues. Restart criteria were developed for use -  :

in screening potential items and evaluating the merit of those specific items. The criteria- ,

focused on nuclear safety, piant reliability, and operational impacts. {

1 A large number of assessment / review efforts were identified to assist in identifying problems, 'l evaluating the adequacy of the restart initiatives, assessing the effectiveness of initiatives, and i assessing readiness for restart. These assessments / reviews included a review of recent events l and trends by SQN management and the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations'(INPO); team  ;

reviews of selected technical program areas, reviews by the Nuclear Safety Review Board a (NSRB); a high-level, Senior Management Oversight Group using experienced nuclear industry managers; a Restart Readiness Team review of the Operations department's  !

readiness; and a variety of site and corporate reviews in targeted areas by Nuclear l Assurance. j The development of this integrated SQN Restart Plan was is ated to fully develop the above. .

efforts and to provide an integrated framework for consistent, effective implementation. t i

II. RESTART PLAN OBJECTIVES  ;

f 1

The overall objectives of the SQN restart efforts are to remove or reduce barriers to effective plant operations and lay the foundation for continuing postrestart improvement. f

.i The overall objectives of the SQN Restart Plan are to ensure the comprehensiveness of the '

restart efforts; to provide an integrated framework for consistent, effective implementation of 1 those efforts; and to assist in the management and communication of those efforts. This - ~l document summarizes key initiatives; extensive supporting detail is referenced as indicated,  !

e.g., detailed implementation schedules, workoff curves, and summary reports. '

This plan, including revisions, is issued and approved by the SQN Site Vice President.-

' build on the multiple ongoing efforts described above. This includes: identification of key j

- focus areas for improvement based upon the analysis of performance problems and  ;

underlying causes, identification of restart actions and scope' utilizing documented restart  !

evaluation criteria consistent with Restart Plan objectives, development of processes to  ;

facilitate and ensure the comprehensive and effective implementation of restart efforts j consistent witn estart Plan objectives, utilization of assessments to verify effectiveness and .

readiness for restart, and integration of the restart efforts with the postrestart overall Site "

Improvement Plan.  !

The SQN Restart Plan methodology and integration of efforts are depicted in Figure 1.  ;

Detailed descriptions of each facet of this plan are provided in Sections IV - VI. In general overview, potential restart issue identification results from a variety of sources, as discussed -

in Section I, and potential restart items are evaluated against the restart evaluation criteria -  !

(see Section V.A) and reviewed by MRRC before being added to the restart list (see Sections l

V. A and B). Restart list hardware items are forwarded to the outage management team, and software items are assigned to responsible department owners. Restart readiness will be .:

principally comprised of integration of systern readiness affirmations (hardware) and l department readiness affirmations (e.g., software, programs, processes, and people). Restart . t activities in key focus areas such as the BOP, programs, and the Operations department's  ;

performance feed into these two readiness processes. Restart readiness will not only address restart activities but adequacy of postrestart plans as well. Multiph assessments are being -  ;

used to assess restart plan adequacy, restart plan implementation, and restart readiness.  ;

r IV. RESTART FOCUS AREAS i

i This section will address each restart focus area. Both hardware and software elements are i

addressed. In many cases improvement plans / initiatives will be continuing past restart.

Processes have been established as described in Section V to' establish the basis for restart

• readiness.

')

IV.A BALANCE OF PLANT (BOP)

Over the past several years, an increasing number of plant transients and reactor trips have resulted from secondary plant problems. Causes have included unexpected hardware failures, marginally designed or degraded system /cwonent performance, and ineffective application of programs /proce2 n Insufficient focus / priority has been provided to the secondary plant to achieve effee <e, reliable operation.

Multiple reviews have been conducted to ensure accurate identification of problem areas.

These included INPO assistance (Reference 3), a comprehensive Secondary Plant Reliability Study (Section IV. A.1), an independent Secondary Plant Design Review (Section IV.A.2),

a .. . j reviews of technical program areas as applied to the BOP (Section IV.A.5), and performance -  ;

evaluations of BOP work by the Nuclear Assurance organization (Section IV.A.6).

The objectives of restart activities associated with the BOP include improving material [

condition and plant reliability, strengthening c' ontrol of work for secondary plant activities, .;

and increa. sing overall site focus on secondary plant performance.  ;

Implementing initiatives to address these objectives include the following areas: l IV.A.1 Secondary Plant Reliability Study j In January 1993, a Secondary Plant Reliability Study (Reference 4) was initiated to provide a structured, prioritized approach to effecting secondary plant performance improvements.  ;

Specific objectives included understanding the causes of increased contribution of the .!

secondary plant to trips /runbacks/ transients, identifying points of single component failure l requiring less than full power to repair, and providing appropriate recommendations to site i management. This study was conducted using a multi-organization Sequoyah team. Review ~l elements included the allocation of technical, maintenance, and budget resources (work prioritization relative to primary plant); trips /runbacks/ power reductions; trip logic review l for single failure points; control of work on the BOP; and successful utility experience. The  !

evaluation process involved collecting SQN and industry data; conducting specific department j reviews; reviewing management controls and processes; and analyzing data.

Recommendations / resolutions were evaluated for cost effectiveness and priority, and  ;

categorized by action type, i.e., modification, corrective or preventive maintenance, l procedure change or training. i Modifications were further classified as high, medium or low priority and results were j reviewed against the restart criteria. Of the twenty-eight identified high priority . l modifications, twenty-two are being implemented before restart. Key restart modifications I include modifications to heater drains and vents (piping and valves), feedwater system >

(controller relays and solenoid valves), control air (receiver drain and copper unloader lines), l switchyard (generator breakers and Buckholtz relays), tt.rbine/ generator (turbine runback  ;

pressure switches and volts / hertz relay), condensate demineralizer (replace and upgrade i valves), and the electrical system (vital invertor transfer switch and vital battery test '

breaker).

Additional deficiencies were categorized as preventive or corrective maintenance items.

These items are to be evaluated by the Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) program to determine the optimum resolution. These items were screened to identify items of immediate  ;

concern due to existing or potential plant conditions. Items considered to pose higher near term risk were addressed by work requests for component replacement. These items  :

included such things as selected turbine building junction box cleaning, inspecting and l repairing (those exposed to ground water in-leakage); turbine trip test valves which were

?

difficult to open/close; rigid control air line tubing to stator cooling water temperature control valves subject to vibration (replaced with flex tubing); continuously energized relays [

in the #3 and #7 heater drain tank level' control circuits; and fuses in the transformer cooling circuitry. Nine additional actions were also identified for restart including evaluation of corrosion in raw cooling water piping; formanite replacement; preventive maintenance on .;

electrical boards; resolving work requests on turbine building sightglasses; resolving work requests.on the Amertap system; replacement of thin-wall piping; replacement of Moisture .;

Separator Reheater manway spiral Dexitallic gaskets; evaluating impact of corrosion on  !

structural integrity of hydrogen piping; and replacement of oil coolers on selected BOP ,

pumps. ,

r Of sixteen identified procedure / training issues, one procedure issue was identified for restart t involving draining water from the Main Turbine Oil Tank. The remaining procedure / training.

issues typically involve engineering enhancements or work efficiency items.  !

The modifications, preventive maintenance, procedures and training not recommended for i implementation prior to restart are being prioritized for longer term implementation post restart as part of the ongoing Site Improvement Plan.

In addition to the evaluation of existing deficient conditions, a single point failure analysis - l was performed. This review identified rnultiple points of single point failure vulnerability in control and electrical circuitry. The results, along with results from an industry trip review  ;

evaluation, will be integrated into the RCM program for analysis and development of I preventive maintenance procedures as part of the post restart SIP.

Additional actions were identified for improvement regarding control of work on the .;

secondary plant. These actions are addressed in sections IV.A.6 and IV.A.7.

IV.A.2 Secondary Plant Design Study As a further extension of the inhouse reliability study, a BOP system design review was ,

conducted by Stone and Webster Engineering Corporation (Reference 5). The review was performed by an experienced light water reactor (LWR) BOP systems and heat balance engineer who had not previously been exposed to TVA practices or implementation. This effort was initiated to identify additional problems or vulnerabilities. Observations'were i requested regarding features that deviated from industry practice or Stone and Webster's standard practices. The review involved an evaluation of Cow and piping drawings, unit walkdowns, TVA design standards and descriptions of systems, and discussions with TVA personnel. A general review of calculations was performed, which focused primarily on  !

methodology and results.

It was concluded that while there are a number of design features not commonly observed, none, specifically or in combination, should preclude safe, reliable unit operation. Specific 7

findings addressed the design and orientation of the feedwater heater safety relief valve vent stack and points of highly suspected erosion-induced wall thinning. Recommendations were made to reduce turbine water induction risk, provide assurance on turbine speed control after trips, and avoid long-term problems on the reheater drains. Recommendations for actions were also made in the condensate / heater drain /feedwater system hydraulics, pump start transients, and feedwater heater level stability during unit transients. The review also noted the unavailability of certain BOP as-built documentation and calculations.

Study results have been evaluated for corrective actions and to identify items for restart implementation. Restart items included addressing the above noted specific findings regarding feedwater heater relief valve vent piping orientation and points of highly suspected erosion induced wall thinning. Remaining longer term actions will be factored into long-term BOP system reliability improvements as part of the SIP.

IV.A.3 Performance of Corrective and Preventive Maintenance During the current dual-unit outages, extensive corrective and preventive maintenance -

activities are being performed, with specific focus on the secondary plant. Maintenance prioritization and high-benefit work identification processes are being enhanced through the use of the Secondary Plant Reliability Study results. Activities include outstanding corrective maintenance items, conduct of preventive maintenance, temporary repair restorations and inspection and refurbishment of secondary plant piping as part of the E/C program review .

1 efforts (see Reference 15 for workoff curves).

The existing Maintenance work request (WR) backlog has been reviewed by licensed senior reactor operators using the restart evaluation criteria considerations for assessment of risk - .

t individual and aggregate - and identification of degradation levels. The results of the Secondary Plant Reliability Study were utilized as part of this review, as were insights provided by INPO's review of BOP material condition. This methodology is being employed on a continuing basis to address emergent, day-to-day WRs. This WR backlog will be ,

reviewed by the individual system engineer who will present these results/ recommendations to the Backlog Review Committee (BRC) described in Section V.D. The results of this effort have been used to identify the restart maintenance population for current outage performance. Approximately 5300 WRs for primary and secondary plant are currently ,

planned for completion prior to restart.

The permanent correction of temporary repairs to existing piping as the result of E/C effects is being conducted before restart. Other temporary repairs are being evaluated and permanently corrected as appropriate. All through wall Furmanite applications for Units 1 -

and 2 will be repaired before restart. Other temporary fittings will be totally repaired for Unit 1 before restart and the majority for Unit 2 with a small number to be repaired by the end of the Unit 2 Cycle 6 refueling outage. In addition, a site procedure will be developed before restart that describes the temporary repair process including the control, tracking, and trending of such repairs.

8  :

a

l The existing preventive maintenance (PM) backlog has been reviewed and prioritized using j the restart evaluation criteria (Section V.A.2). Delinquent PMs (unimplemented PMs past j their due date without technical evaluation) will be reduced to less than five (for both units) i before restart. PMs due before the Unit 2 Cycle 6 refueling outage for which conduct at j power is considered to constitute an unacceptable level of risk are being performed during i the current outages. RCM-driven PM revisions with identified plant reliability benefits are  :

being reviewed and expedited for PM conduct during the current outages. PMs not  ;

performed during the current outages will essentially consist of lower benefit PMs that can be effectively performed with the units online. The PM backlog will also be reviewed by the l BRC. Approximately 3700 PMs for primary and secondary plant are planned to be  !

completed prior to restart.

IV.A.4 Implementation of Secondary Plant Modifications A number of modifications are being implemented to improve secondary plant component and system reliability and performance. Several of the modifications were identified and planned prior to the unit shutdown for implementation during subsequent outages. Additional  !

modifications were identified through Secondary Plant Reliability Study recommendations, q backlog reviews, employee feedback, and selected system reviews. Key modifications i' involve imprcvements in feedwater heater level controls, electrical system and control component changeouts and upgrades, reduction in air system design vulnerabilities, switchyard breaker and relay changeouts, and turbine / generator improvements.

IV.A.5 BOP Technical Programs Application IV.A.5.a E/C and Confirmatory Action Letter (CAL) Issues As a result of the erosion / corrosion induced rupture of the Unit 2 large bore extraction steam line and previous small bore piping failures, an overall E/C programmatic review and reevaluation of piping condition were initiated. Significant programmatic weaknesses were identified and a strategic scoping plan was developed by Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). A comprehensive piping inspection and reevaluation effort for both large- and.

small-bore piping are being conducted by TVA, with contracted expertise and support. For ,

large-bore piping (greater than 2-inch diameter), this includes: a complete rebuild of the ,

~

CHECMATE large-bore model using verified model inputs, full pass two piping inspection data inputs based on fullinspection grids, development and documentation of verified  ;

acceptance criteria, and required repairs / replacements. For small-bore piping, efforts ,

include: completion of piping changeouts ongoing and scheduled at the time of the unit shutdowns, development of a detailed inspection plan based on a review of system design and ,

operation and operating experience, and changeouts of indicated thinned piping.

Approximately 3000 feet of small bore piping and 300 feet oflarge bore piping are being changed out per unit. E/C programs for both small- and large-bore piping are being ,

J upgraded consistent with industry standards using contracted expertise. Organizational j responsibility has been reassigned to the new Technical Performance and Program - t organization described in Section IV.B. A third- party (EPRI) review of the entire piping evaluation and E/C program upgrade will be conducted. _l

+l Actions resulting from the extraction steam line rupture event identified in TVA's letter and ,

the NRC Confirmation of Action Letter dated March 4,1993 (References 1 and 2) will be completed before restart. These include the complete review of the event including the piping failure mechanism and impacts of the event on plant equipment, the review of the.

E/C program including a third-party review, an evaluation of the condition of plant piping subject to E/C effects, the completion of permanent repairs to piping that was under 1 temporary repair because of E/C effects, and the evaluation of other programs relative to weaknesses identified in the E/C program implementation. All CAL actions will be verified and affirmed complete by the Site Licensing manager before restart as provided for in Appendix 8. l IV. A.5.b Other Secondary Plant Programs l

~

Additional technical program reviews (reference Sections IV.C and Reference 6) identified several targeted areas for improvement in program applications to the secondary ,

plant. These areas addressed the E/C program (including MIC) application to secondary _ 3 systems such as raw water and high-pressure fire protection, preventive and predictive j maintenance for secondary plant equipment, switchyard (SWYD) controls, and temporary ,

1 repair controls. Strengthened controls and selected inspections / evaluations are being -

implemented on the BOP for restart. Additional enhancements will be implemented as part  ;

of the SIP following restart.  !

IV.A.6 Upgrading Work Practices  !

i IV.A.6.1 Maintenance Processes and Standards  !

A number of actions are being taken to elevate the standards of maintenance conduct on the secondary plant. The Maintenance / Modi 0 cations Managers are conducting communications and coaching sessions during department standdowns (see Section IV.E) with Maintenance, Modifications, and contract personnel to heighten sensitivity and attention to detail in conduct of secondary plant maintenance activities. This includes a discussion of plant operating reliability, risk and consequences using previous events, and maintenance work observations.

Secondary plant work practices and standards in such areas as planning detail for secondary work are being similarly heightened to parallel implementation practices and standards used for the primary plant. ,

In addition, clearly defined management expectations concerning higher standards for BOP  !

1 are being communicated and enforced at all levels of the Maintenance department.  :

l l

A specific training session is being developed on BOP quality standards that will be presented to Maintenance personnel.

IV.A.6.2 Control of Work  ;

Several initiatives have been implemented to improve the control of work on the BOP. As a a result of previous plant events, Plant Manager policies were developed for work on or- 1 around sensitive equipment and for the types of equipment adjustments (e.g., set point dials) l that can be made without a work document. The policy on sensitive equipment has been  ;

-incorporated into a site standard practice that will involve training and result in enhanced  !

awareness of plant personnel (Reference 16). The policy on BOP equipment / controller- l

~

adjustments clarified expectations regarding the use of procedures / work documents for BOP adjustments (Reference 17). This policy defines the following: (1) Operations is authorized _ l to make certain adjustments during plant evolutions or when prompt action is necessary; (2)  :

Operations, with support from the system engineer, can make adjustments for equipment ,

optimization but not to compensate for needed maintenance; and (3) other adjustment actions i on BOP equipment can only be performed by utilizing the appropriate work document.

In the area of Maintenance and Modifications work control, a number of BOP performance / planning weaknesses have been identified by the Nuclear Assurance Organization Performance Evaluation Program (Reference 18). As corrective actions for' -i these weaknesses, Maintenance / Modifications management has initiated a strategic plan '!

(Reference 19) that includes communication of heightened expectations for the quality of  ;

BOP work. This plan also includes specific expectations for each level of supervision  ;

including the craft. In addition, actions have been taken to increase supervisory presence in the plant for coaching and oversight, and increase the level of detail in work order planning.  ;

The authorization of BOP work by Operations will continue to be performed through the l Operations Control Center (OCC). Operations' reviews prior to the authorization of work -i have placed increased emphasis on configuration control and single-failure activities that could result in unit trips.  :

IV.A.6.3 Control of Configuration  ;

Operations' management has determined that BOP process systems will be placed under the controls of Site Standard Practice (SSP) 12.2, " System and Equipment Status Control." The .i application of this level of control will ensure that BOP systems are properly aligned and  !

maintained during restart and subsequent plant operation through use of system alignment l checklists and status files. To further ensure adequate configuration control is established _3 and maintained on BOP, process equipment will receive a verification of status prior to l1 Il  !

i IV.A.6.4 Improved Assessment of and Prioritization of l

Outstanding Work /Open Items on BOP l l

A number of initiatives are being taken to improve the assessment of impact / risk for J!

outstanding secondary plant issues / work. These include assignment of risk degradation levels to work orders to aid in proper prioritization of work, adjustment in the site work prioritization processes to increase weighing of plant reliability issues, and augmented controls and reviews of WRs over 90 days old. Results from the Secondary Plant Reliability j Study are also being used to upgrade the weighing of plant reliability considerations,in work  :

.prioritization and monitoring. .

IV.A.7 Switchyard (SWYD) Controls and Interfaces ,

Several initiatives are being taken to further improve SWYD controls and interfaces. Actions ' <

'i being taken and/or to be completed prior to restart include establishing an onsite Customer Group (CG) owner for switchyard activities, removing outdated signs for access gates and l vehicle control, revising the site instruction (SSP 6.52, " Activities of Customer Group at - ,

Sequoyah Nuclear Plant") to ensure CG activities are impact reviewed and that Operations is {

properly notified, formalizing the switching order execution process, ensuring the_ CG fully - a implements site instructions for switchyard activities, and strengthening the' control of- .!

switchyard work during high-risk evolutions. Other long-term recommendations to further enhance switchyard activities will be addressed through the SIP. i i

IV.B OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT'S PERFORMANCE {

Weaknesses in'the Operations department's performance have resulted in adverse impacts on safety system availability and a large number of plant events. A comprehensive improvement effort was ongoing at the time of unit shutdown. The review of performance history and ongoing performance evaluation efforn by Nuclear Assurance'are being used to ,

identify current areas requiring additional improv: ..ent to support unit start-up and safe,  ;

reliable operations over the next operating cycle. Additionally, senior corporate staff's y assisted by industry experienced consultants are verifying the identi6 cation of problem areas and assessing performance levels to ensure operational readiness (Reference Appendix 1 for activity description).

The overall objectives of restart improvement efforts in the Operations area include: i ensuring the establishment of an effective configuration control process; " certifying" the configuration of the p!:mt both to support shutdown and restart conditions; providing safe and effective conduct of operations in targeted areas such as procedure adherence, plant ownership, command and control, formality of communications, self-checking, logkeeping, i and turnover and status monitoring; strengthening management and personnel; and continuing -

efforts to upgrade personnel standards and culture.

IV.B.1 Configuration Control l Multiple efforts are ongoing to enhance the configuration control process in the short and  ;

long term. These include the simplification and strengthening of the verification processes 1 and requirements, additional training in standardized methods for configuring various j component types (e.g. setting throttle valves), inclusion of additional systems within the 1 configuration control process scope, ongoing procedure simplifications /matchups to eliminate  !

multiple procedure alignments, trial use of a computerized configuration control system, and i strengthened controls over con 6guration changes in the BOP by adding secondary plant  ;

process systems to the scope of the site configuration control process. i i

IV.B.2 Configuration Verification 'i Prior to unit shutdown, several configuration verification efforts were ongoing to provide additional assurance that components - valves, handswitches, etc. - were in the correct ,

position to perform their required design function. A main control room handswitch j verification effort is in progress including a comprehensive procedure and drawing review, to  ;

ensure the accurate assignment of positions. Reviews of associated Operation's procedures ,

and drawings are ongoing. Incorrect procedures and primary drawings will be corrected ,

before restart of respective units. Following specialized training and upgrading of .

verification processes, a 100 percent field verification effort was initiated for Unit I required i

systems for Modes 5 and 6 and for Unit 2 and common for all configured systems. The verification of configured systems will be completed before restart. SROs are being used to l conduct " spot checking" of alignments (see Reference 15 for applicable workoff curves).

IV.B.3 ' Strengthening of Operations' Management and Personnel

The capability and effectiveness of Operations' personnel are being evaluated, and necessary actions are being identified as part of the overall evaluation of site personnel discussed in .,

f Section IV.E. Additionally, an experienced supervisor' has been recently hired to provide ]

( management oversight and workforce strengthening for auxiliary unit operators (AUOs).  ;

Experienced ' industry SROs and AUOs (Trojan Nuclear Generating Station)~are being  ;

recruited and hired to infuse additional talent and perspective into the Operations department over the long term. This effort will be supplemented by recruiting and hiring of former U.S. -

Navy officers and petty officers as SRO and AUO trainee candidates, respectively. .

IV.B.4 Conduct of Operations Expectations and standards of performance in key areas - procedural adherence, command .;

and control, plant ownership, formality of communications, self-checking, logkeeping,  !

turnover, and status monitoring - are being enhanced, communicated, reinforced and .

monitored on a continuing basis.

Procedure adherence is being stressed with communication of expectations regarding -

inadequate, incorrect, or unclear procedures. The procedure revision process for Operations' procedures has been improved by supplementing support in this area. Turnover meetings ,

and Operations' management briefings during training week, as well as weekly meetings with ,

the Site Vice President, are used to discuss and reinforce expectations and areas for further >

improvement. Operations' administrative procedures, including the Conduct of Operations >

procedure, are being discussed, and expectations in execution are being communicated during  ;

ongoing Operations department's standdowns (see Section IV.E). Processes such as  ;

logkeeping and turnover are being standardized'as much as possible. The utilization of the ,

stop, think, act, review (STAR) process to enhance self-checking is continuing.

IV.B.5 Operations' Performance Assessment Nuclear Assurance is evaluating performance relative to conduct of operations through the l ongoing Cperations Performance Evaluation Program followup. Results of that evaluation effort are being discussed with Operations' management and factored into ongoing communications. A Restart Readiness Team headed by the Vice President, Nuclear  !

a , 1 IV.C PROGRAMS- i i

Weaknesses were identified in several program areas over the past several years, including the programmatic weaknesses in the site E/C program, which resulted in the Unit 2 extraction line rupture and shutdown of the units for the current outages. Beyond specific  :

program weaknesses, identined common elements or causes included an unclear deGnition of - ]'

program ownership, responsibilities and interfaces, and ineffective change management relative to responsibilities, organization, supervision, and resources allocation. A significant weakness was identined regarding split responsibilities between site and corporate 1

organizations.  ;

The objectives of the restart activities in this area are to assess the adequacy of site programs and implementation; assess the consequences of any identified weaknesses and take actions necessary to provide current implementation consistent with restan plan objectives; ensure clear ownership for site programs is established, including an effective organization structure  !

and organizational interfaces: and provide a foundation to continue longer-term program J enhancements. ,

Three key actions are being taken to address this area: team reviews of selected, "high risk" technical program areas; reviews of program areas by department program owners as part of the department readiness assessments; and establishment of a Technical Performance and Programs organization to consolidate and better focus definition and implementation of key site technical programs.

IV.C.1 Technical Programs Review A review of technical programs was conducted by a team headed up by the Chairman of ,

TVA's NSRB (see Reference 6). The purpose of the review was to assess program adequacy, identify specific deficiencies or work items that should be addressed before restart, i and to provide advice and assistance to implement longer-term program improvements. The review teams were composed of 38 TVA personnel from Nuclear Assurance, corporate technical groups, and SQN site organizations. Eight industry experts external to TVA also  ;

participated in the review effort. Programs for review were identified by a team of senior I corporate managers consisting of the Chairman, NSRB; the Manager, Nuclear Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (NLRA); the Chief Engineer; the Manager, Technical Programs; the ,

Manager, Nuclear Fuels; and the Manager, Quality Programs. Program selection was based on a review of events, trends, and performance indicatoe; a review of common elements associated with recent events; the potential to impact plant operations; and programs with split ownership between corporate and site (Reference 7). The programs reviewed included: l open issues (including backlogs); switchyard control; corrosion control programs; American Society of Mechanical Engineers and regulatory programs; valve, predictive maintenance,

)

and equipment trending programs; control of temporary repairs; chemistry; and environmental qualification. Oversight of the conduct of the review was provided by a panel 15 1

- composed of the Chairman, NSRB; the Vice President, Technical Support; the General J Manager, Nuclear Assurance; the Vice President, Nuclear Readiness; the SQN Site Quahty .

l Manager; and the SQN Site Licensing Manager. This panel will also review the actions i being taken to resolve the review Gndings. >

i The results of these reviews (Reference 6) were provided to program owners and both restart- i and long-term improvement recommendations were identi6ed. Program owners are utilizing  ;

these reviews to assist in baselining current program health; additional reviews are being j conducted as appropriate. j l

IV.C.2 Program Owner Reviews l As part of department readiness assessments (Section V.F), department program owners will l assess the health and effectiveness of programs owned by that department. This assessment j will consider program assessments and performance indicators / trends and the potential impact ofidenti6ed program weaknesses on near-term, safe, reliable plant operation. The scope and j methodology for conducting these reviews is de6ned in Appendix 9 (also see Reference 27).  ;

IV.C.3 Technical Performance and Programs Organization Prior to the shutdown of the units, early in 1993, weaknesses were observed in the -!

organizational structure for several technical programs. The observed weaknesses included j the inadequate definition of program ownership, fragmented implementation, and split responsibilities between multiple organizations, both within the site organizations and i between the site and corporate organizations. As a result, an effort was initiated in early 1993 to develop a single site organization of technical programs to provide a better structure ,

for delineating program responsibility and authority and facilitating implementation through j well-focused control, e.g., minimizing and/or better controlling " hand-offs" and interfaces. 1 Program ownership is being clearly established at the site; program de6nition or r implementation functions previously performed by corporate organizations are being 1 transferred to the site. (See Section IV.F for additional discussion of corporate / site interface.) i The overall objective of the organization is to achieve and maintain total program definition, j ownership, and responsibility for effective SQN implementation. As practical, organizational  !

" hand offs" will be minimized. The scope of the technical programs to be included in this -  !

organization was developed from a review of program magnitude and complexities, potential l for weaknesses identified by recent events, and consequences of ineffective implementation.

{

The new organization has been approved and key positions permanently Elled, including the [

organization manag:;r and several supervisory positions; temporary assignments are being  !

used in some areas (Reference 21). The transfer of responsibilities and personnel from l l

i IV.D BACKLOGS /OPEN ITEMS - WORK PRIORITIZATION -  :

1 A number of site processes generate work items of various types that until implemented ]

constitute open or backlogged items. Schedules for working these items are dictated by l process requirements, significance / priority and site work prioritization processes. Prior to

. i the current outages, the SIP had identiGed backlogs as a major improvement area with focus on assessing the individual and aggregate impact of backlog items on safe, reliable plant operation; reducing existing backlogs that can adversely impact the effective management of i site activities; improving work prioritization and scheduling processes to_ optimize priority assignment; and improving work processes to control the development of future backlogs.  ;

It is recognized that open items and backlogs will always exist to some degree. The restart objectives in this area are to ensure that backlog items individually or in the aggregate do not pose unacceptable risk to effective plant and site operation from hardware and i personnel / management impact perspectives, and to lay the foundation for the effective control {

and management of backlogs following restart. ,

Accordingly, restart activities in the area of backlogs are focused at gaining a good understanding of the individual and aggregate impact of existing backlog items; working open  ;

items with signincant impact / risk to safety system availability, plant reliability, or effective l plant / personnel performance on either an individual or aggregate basis; improving backlog l assessment and monitoring processes to ensure effective controls and understanding of 1 postrestart backlogs; establishing detailed workoff plans for postre. start backlogs; and initiating improvements to work processes to optimize postrestart priority assignments and l control the development of future backlogs. ,

l The above activities are being implemented and captured through three key restart plan ,

processes, the backlog rev;ew process (see Section V.D), the system readiness assessments  !

(see Section V.E), and the department readiness assessments (see Section V.F). In summary, l through a designated Backlog Review Committee (BRC) and system engineer evaluation, site l

backlogs are being identified and backlog items are being evaluated individually and/or in the -

aggregate against restart evaluation criteria. Applicable restart workoff curves are provided ,

by Reference 15. System readiness assessments will consider the aggregate impact of any ,

remaining postrestart backlogs /open items on system functionality. Department readiness  ;

assessments will ensure a thorough analysis and understanding of the department-owned postrestart backlog compositions, will have established acceptability of those backlog levels  :

to support safe and reliable operations, will have determined what process improvements are ]

necessary to prevent the development of unacceptable postrestart backlogs, and will have - ,

established workoff curves and performance indicators to ensure effective management of  !

postrestart work. l 1

IV.E PERSONNEL, ORGANIZATION AND CULTURE As discussed in Section I, the analysis of the underlying causes for observed weaknesses in  ;

SQN performance identified repeated indications of ineffective personnel and management  ;

performance. While it is recognized that improving personnel performance and effectiveness '

is an ongoing, long-term effort, specific restart initiatives were identified in personnel / management capability, organization structure and definition of responsibilities, ,

and personnel culture in terms of ownership and standards of performance. l IV.E.1 Personnel Fvaluation/ Management Development -

An evaluation of site personnel / management capability and performance is being conducted to identify weaknesses and associated action / development needs (see Reference 20). This i effort will be completed down through the first-line supervisor in all site organizations and - t for the entire Operations department (down to AUO levels) before restart. Remaining  ;

personnel will be evaluated through the continuation of this process following restart. This evaluation is being conducted by first identifying key behaviors for success and then  ;

evaluating managers / supervisors / personnel against these behaviors.

I The restart evaluation has been completed. Immediate restart actions or development needs l

!- are being _ identified as well as postrestart actions. Evaluations are being compared against - ]

previous performance appraisals for management feedback and appraisal updating. Targeted l development training will be conducted. Detailed action plans are being developed for

" action required" managers. Actions needed before restart are being identified and implemented.

l The results of this effort will be integrated into the department readiness affirmations, the I overall site restart readiness assessment, and continuing postrestart management performance reviews and individual development plan processes. It is acknowledged that this initiative is primarily one of enforcing an existing system that has broken down. Long-term success will depend on management commitment.

IV.E.2 Organization, Roles and Responsibilities To improve the effectiveness and ownership of site personnel, an effort was initiated to evaluate the effectiveness of and revise as appropriate the organizational structure, and to clearly define roles, responsibilities, and interfaces. Organizational weaknesses are being identified, and necessary restart and postrestart actions are being defined. The results of this l effort will be documented and communicated to site personnel; impacted procedures will be revised as appropriate. This effort will interface with efforts addressing the corporate / site  !

19 i l

a

.. . .t

~ interface in Section IV.F, and provides an. input to both the department readiness assessments and integration into the overall site readiness assessment.

i It is expected that full implementation of results of these efforts will continue beyond restart.  !

IV.E.3 Culture and Ownership Restart and postrestart continuing efforts are being implemented to build an effective site ~

culture, instill ownership, and foster teamwork among management and site personnel.

' A long-term action plan has been developed, and efforts are being integrated into ongoing restart efforts. These efforts are focused at communicating and reinforcing a common site vision among all personnel, including overall site objectives and standards of performance and expectations for job function execution.

A series of department standdowns in key departments are being conducted before restart to devote special focus to this area. Department-specific performance, processes, procedures, and issues are being addressed as well as overall site restart and postrestart plans and objectives. This effort comprises a small subset of a broad, long-term action plan for continuing postrestart improvement.

i IV.F ' CORPORATE / SITE INTERFACE Separate from (but in parallel with) the SQN restart efforts, the TVA corporate organization in Nuclear Power has been recently restructured (see Reference 22 for organization charts).

This effort included the assignment of a new Vice President of Nuclear Operations (R. M. Eytchison) who has responsibility over the nuclear sites. A corporate group under ,

the newly created Vice President of Nuclear Readiness (D. R. Keuter) is responsible for overseeing site readiness and reporting the state of operational readiness to the Vice President l of Nuclear Operations. The recent reorganization realigns all corporate technical functions under one Vice President of Technical Support (M, O. Medford) to consolidate technical and  ;

programmatic oversight and site support functions into a single organization for a more integrated, unified approach. >

A key element of the overall restructuring effort is to ensure that all site technical functions are owned by and conducted from the site organizations. Actions are ongoing to clearly ,

define the corporate mission in terms of site oversight, plant support, and TVA program area  ;

responsibilities and to coordinate with the site for the effective transfer of  !

responsibilities / functions (see References 23 and 33). Companion efforts to improve the.

effectiveness of the corporate organizauon are also ongoing. A clear definition of the corporate / site interface will be integrated into the site organizational activities discussed in ,

Section IV.E.2 and the overall site readiness assessment.

L V. PROCESSES This section outlines the processes being utilized to identify potential restart items, conduct ,

i or obtain associated reviews / approvals, and assess readiness for restart through the integration of multiple processes / reviews. These processes will be defined, revised, implemented, and controlled under appendices to this plan. A revision to or a refmement of l these processes, following the issuance of this Restart Plan, will constitute a revision to the i Restart Plan and will be approved by the Site Vice President. ,

V.A RESTART ITEM IDENTIFICATION The following three sections identify key aspects of the restart item identification process. It is expected that application of the specific processes described in sections V.A.2 and V.A.3 (e.g., criteria, forms) will continue until a time close to unit restart where transition to normal operational processes will occur. Appropriate implementation of normal processes for Unit One will be established as described in Appendix 12.

l V.A.1 SOURCES OF POTENTIAL. RESTART ITEMS AND ISSUES Potential restart items have been (and/or may continue to be) identified through the following principal sources:

A. Management Review The Site Vice President, his direct reports, and their direct reports met to identify both hardware and administrative weaknesses, problems, or areas for improvement that directly or .,

indirectly contributed to the forced outages and should be addressed / resolved prior to restart.

Additionally, this team identified additional actions that should be taken before the restart of the units, considering major weaknesses such as identified in the SIP, to further improve postrestart operational effectiveness. This team identified a base initial "52 item restart list" from which the current restart list developed. .

B. Employee Feedback In mid-March, utilizing the SIP and initial "52 item restart list," designated department managers met with targeted personnel groups to determine if other significant issues / problems existed that were not already identified or whether the current assessment of significance (and therefore priority) of problems was appropriate. (The designated departments and personnel populations were those considered most likely to be aware of other significant issues / problems.) Appendix 2 provides the documentation package utilized j in that process. Additional potential restart items resulting from that process were presented to the MRRC for approval / disapproval for adding to the restart list.

22 l

o. i C. Site Improvement Plan (SIP) Review  :

The SIP was reviewed on a line-by-line (SIP matrix line entries) basis by AIRRC members

" for identification of potential restart items.

. D. Program Reviews .

. As discussed in Section IV.C, team reviews of a number of program areas were conducted that identified both restart and postrestart recommendations.

.l E. Assessment Reviews Trend reports and internal and external assessments, e.g., Nuclear Assurance trend reports

- and Performance Evaluations, and the 1992 SQN Nuclear Plant Self-Assessment ("Keuter report"), were reviewed by department mangers for potential restart items. ,

1 F. Backlog Reviews  !

1 Prior to establishing the BRC and the associated comprehensive backlog review effort, a - l number of site backlogs were reviewed by department backlog owners for the identification ,

of potential restart items. The ongoing comprehensive backlog review effort through the '!-

BRC will ensure that all backlogs are identified and reviewed as appropriate against the _ ,

current restart evaluation criteria. Additional potential restart items may be' identified as part  !

'of this effort. ,

G. Restart Plan / Activity Implementation ,

Ongoing reviews. assessments, and Restart Plan process / activity implementation, e.g.,

backlog reviews, may identify additional restart items.

.i L

-j 23

t V.A.2 RESTART EVALUATION CRITERIA Criteria.or considerations communicated by the Site Vice President for use in identifying -

potential restart items have focused on nuclear safety, plant reliability, and operational impacts, with examples provided such as items resulting in frequent entry into limiting conditions for operation (LCOs) and items that could result in plant transients. The following restart evaluation criteria reflect a consolidation and reformatting of these criteria / considerations, along with the explanation / guidance in the application of the criteria.

Actions needed to ensure technical specification (TS) operability will be completed before entering a mode for which associated requirements are applicable (except as allowed under LCO 3.0.4 exception). Actions needed to satisfy NRC docketed commitments or agreements .

associated with the current outages (e.g., CAL items) will be completed before restart. The  :

following screening criteria will be used to evaluate other open items / issues to determine what additional actions should be taken before the restart of the units from the current outages. The criteria establish basic considerations involving nuclear safety, plant reliability, ,

and operational impacts for' which assessments and judgements must be applied, e.g., degree and probability or consequences of impact. Potential restart itemt should be conservatively assessed and presented to MRRC by the responsible organiza; ion / owner as described in Sections V. A.3 - V.D of this document. MRRC will either approve the item / issue for restart scope inclusion or will provide the basis for why the item / issue should be addressed following restart or the restart scope modified.

• Adverse impact on safety system availability or performance For example, potential for causing frequent entry into TS action statements, potential for entry into short-term TS action statements, and potential to render a component or system incapable of performing intended design function

• Significant challenge to plant / personnel performance because of individual or aggregate impact For example, high numbers of compensatory actions, disabled annunciators, high backlog numbers, and degraded or unreliable equipment performance

• IIigh potential to impact plant operating reliability For example, likelihood for causing trips / transients, common or single failure point weaknesses, necessitates entry into short-ter.n TS action statements, and likelihood for hardware failure before the end of the next operating cycle

• Prudence of or need for working during two unit outage For example, reduced TS action statement applicability, reduced outage risk, and reduced operational impact The above criteria do not preclude the approval and inclusion of activities that do not meet 24

l =!

l . < q the criteria but are determined desirable / prudent in consideration of overall site objectives,  !

e.g., activities associated with ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable), industrial safety,  ;

and/or resource optimization. <

V.A.3 POTENTIAL RESTART ITEM DOCUMENTATION AND EVALUATION ,

Potential restart items have been and are being documented and evaluated as described in this f section. This process does not apply to items required to satisfy TSs, high-priority outage work orders / work requests, or other normal emergent outage scope addition items handled .;

through the outage addition process in SSP-7.2, " Outage Management." It is recognized that  !

the forced Unit 2 and Unit 1 outage schedules and the Unit 1 Cycle 6 refueling outage  ;

schedule contain activities not added through this process.

Potential restart items from any source may be documented on form Att.- 3-1, " Potential j Restart Evaluation for Sequoyah", contained in Appendix 3, reviewed and concurred with by l the responsible supervisor, and provided to the Manager, Project Management and Controls, - j for scheduling a MRRC review. Items that have been previously (prior to issuance of this {

plan) presented to MRRC or previously identified / evaluated utilizing alternative i documentation do not have to be placed (retrofitted) on the form in Appendix 3. Outage.

1 hardware related additions / deletions are documented on form Att. 3-2, " Restart Work Item Addition / Deletion Form" as described in Appendix 3. This process is in addition to the .

normal outage activity addition process provided under SSP 7.2. Items resulting from and '!

documented through the Restort Plan implementing processes, e.g., BRC reviews, will also be provided to the Manager, Project Management and Controls, for scheduling MRRC  ;

review and approval as defined in this plan. The restart form provided in Appendix 3 need ,

not be used for items documented through these processes. j The deletion of restart items from the restart scope requires technical evaluation by the -)

system engineer and MRRC approval. MRRC may delegate day-to-day review authority for -  !

WR deletions to BRC with followup overview presentation to MRRC. This process is in ,

addition to the normal outage activity deletion process provided under SSP-7.2. This process  !!

is also implemented through Appendix 3, Attachment 3-2.

Completion of restart items will be documented on a Restart Item Closure form as indicated i in Appendix 10. j f

Plant Manager a Engineering and Modifications Manager Site Licensing Manager Maintenance Manager Operations Superintendent i Site Quality Manager V.B.2 RESPONSIBILITIES AND FUNCTIONS .!

The MRRC oversees and directs the overall management and implementation of the restart -

activities and processes addressed under this Restart Plan. The MRRC approves or ,

disapproves potential restart items / issues, reviews summary results of restart evaluations, reviews the adequacy of restart activity completion verification activities, and reviews results of restart readiness assessments and affirmations. MRRC will provide overall management direction and approval of the restart process, including the outage schedule development, execution, and completion.

V.B.3 MRRC MEETINGS i MRRC meetings to review potential restart items or to review results of restart item evaluations are scheduled through the Manager, Project Management and Controls. Potential' restart items are presented to MRfd : during scheduled meetings by the appropriate j department manager, program ov, w system enginecr, or other sponsoring individual. j MRRC makes a restart determinat'.on based on the i ' ation presented or may direct that  ;

V.D BACKLOG REVIEW COMMITTEE (BRC) i The BRC was established to effect a comprehensive and consistent review of key site backlogs for restart consideration. Prior to establishment, a number of backlogs or portions-of backlogs had already been evaluated by department managers as restart item assignments or indepandent assessment efforts; additionally, the employee feedback process had identified  ;

a number of restart items from various backlogs. A multidiscipline composition was .

established to ensure appropriate site impact considerations, e.g; Operations' SRO input. [

Members were selected based upon broad experience, knowledge, and perspectives. The implemertation of the backlog review through the BRC ensures the comprehensiveness of ,

backlog review efforts, appropriate operational impact assessments using a current SRO I

licensed individual, and consistency in backlog review implementation. Reviews are being conducted on a system basis as appropriate to provide the foundation for assessing the ~  ;

aggregate impact of outstanding items / issues on system functionality. Members serve as  ;

representatives or liaisons with associated departments to ensure the effective coordination of-  ;

the completion of this effort with other restart processes, e.g., system readines and -

i department readiness affirmations. The detf. led process is described in and controlled under  !

Appendix 4 (References 12 and 24).

V.D.1 BRC COMPOSITION  ;

The BRC is composed of multidisciplined members representing the key site organizations  ;

owning or affected by the majority of site backlogs. The members include the following: 'i 1

H. R. Rogers, Technical Support Program Manager (lead) ,

M. J. Lorek, Nuclear Engineering (current SRO)  !'

I. Dibiase, Maintenance C. R. Brimer, Nuclear Engineering q

V.D.2 BRC RESPONSIBILITIES AND FUNCTIONS f

The BRC identifies and evaluates existing site backlogs (as defined in . Appendix 4) as ofi '!

May 1,1993, for their individual and aggregate impact on restart and, with the .  ;

recommendation of the department backlog owner and/or affected system engineer (s), makes l 27 ,

1 I

.e - , ,- - - y , - ,,----,, e, y, ,,, ,--- -,-,v 4

restart decisions on those backlogs, The BRC uses the collective experience and judgement .'

of members with~ supporting input and conducts reviews against the restart evaluation criteria.

The system engineer (as the system owner) participates in backlog reviews and through  :

his/her system-specific expertise and judgement has significant impact on the BRC decision-  :

making process for system related backlogs. The BRC process provides significant input to  ;

the system readiness evaluation described in Appendix 5. The BRC presents to the MRRC,  !

with department head and/or system engineer support as appropriate, the summary results of  ;

their determinations. Items / issues that are recommended for restart and items / issues for which a restart recommendation is not clear are discussed in detail with the MRRC.

For items for which the evaluation criteria are generally satis 5ed but it is determined that significant s;hedule/ resource impacts would be involved, the BRC, with input from the department head / system engineer, may assess the technical acceptability of not resolving the ' ,

item (s)/ issue before restart and the level of equipment, personnel, or program performance

" risk" that could be assumed or expected. These items would be presented and discussed in 'i detail with the MRRC for final restart determination. The restart item addition / deletion ,

process is described in and controlled under Appendix 3.  ;

Backlogs can present an adverse impact to effective plant operation because of the effect of ,

individual or aggregate items and because of the demands that backlogs place on managing line organizations. Collateral to the BRC's primary restart responsibility, the BRC may '

document observations and formulate recommendations for improvement of how the site I accumulates and manages backlogs for senior site management consideration.  ;

1 Emergent items identified after the backlog review process cutoff date (May 1,1993) are ,

reviewed for restart scope inclusion as described in Appendix 4. In general, the interim j process for review of emergent items begins the transition from use of special restart review- i processes back to use of normal operational review processes. This process still employs use I of the restart evaluation criteria and additional management oversight. The BRC reviewed restart determinations for emergent WRs initiated between May 1 and July 1,1993 to .

validate appropriate application of criteria through use of normal processes. The system i engineers review restart determinations for emergent items against their systems for ongoing i input into system readiness assessment. Unresolved differences in opinions are presented to '

MRRC for final determination.  ;

V.E SYSTEM READINESS i

Prior to restart, the responsible system engineer will review the status of each system as indicated in Appendix 5 and will affirm restart readiness of the system to support safe and reliable restart and operation during the next operating cycle. The purpose of this process is to collectively assess system readiness from a hardware standpoint to support the management restart decisions, to reinforce ownership for system performance and improvement with the system engineers, and to lay the foundation for postrestart work / improvement prioritization. l The process requires both a preliminary assessment of projected system status at restart (assuming completion ofidentified outstanding restart work) and a final assessment and  ;

affirmation prior to restart. Outstanding restart activities at the time of the final system readiness will be identified. Technical Specification systems will be verified operable before entry into a mode where they are required operable. System work items identified subsequent to the final system readiness affirmations will be handled by the nctm:1 post -l restart work processes.

Walkdowns will be conducted on focus systems to assess material condition as indicated in Appendix 5. Focus systems include key safety significant and plant reliability significant - .

systems. Walkdowns at system operating temperature and pressure will be conducted as appropriate to identify leaks following system restoration. The Technical Support manager ,

will coordinate the overall completion of these efforts with other outage and startup activities.

Considerations that will be addressed by the system engineers in support of the readiness {

affirmation will include the status of the material condition of the system including the j review of outstanding backlogs or open items / issues on their system; the completion of  ;

walkdowns on focus systems listed in Appendix 5; the completion of the review of  ;

information related to significant recurring or repetitive equipment problems and a plan to -

, address them; the establishment of compensatory measures (if appropriate) for postrestart items / issues; and the establishment of priorities for the continued improvement of system performance and system material condition.  :

System readiness reviews will be reviewed by the system engineer supervisor, the BRC, the i Technical Support manager, and the MRRC as indicated in Appendix 5. System readiness- ,

affirmations will be input into the department readiness affirmations discussed in Section V.F. and into the overall MRRC site re. idiness assessment.

The system readiness process is detailed in Appendix 5.

-I V.F DEPARTMENT READINESS AFFIRMATION I Prior to restart, the managers responsible for each major functional department as indicated in Appendix 6 will affirm restart readiness of that department to support a safe and reliable-  :

restart and operation during the next operating cycle, The purpose of this process is to l ensure department completion of assigned restart actions; to ensure that programs, processes, -i organization, and personnel / management capability are sufficient to support safe and reliable operation;' to ensure that postrestart work and improvement efforts (including backlogs) are  :

sufficiently defined, prioritized, scheduled, and controlled; and to ensure that appropriate  :

postrestart assessment and monitoring processes are in place (See References 13 and 25). 1 The process leading to this affirmation will include a series of meetings with the department .I manager and the Site Vice President to discuss needed actions leading to department restart  ;

readiness, to review progress in attaining organization / functional readiness, and to assist in department manager development via the process for establishing department readiness for r both short- and long-term considerations. Final department readiness affirmations will be ,

reviewed by the MRRC and will be input into the overall MRRC site' readiness assessment. l The department readiness affirmation process is detailed in Appendix 6. l l

V.G SITE READINESS ASSESSMENT The overall site readiness assessment will consist of a "rollup" of a number of interfacing and overlapping inputs. These include the system and department readiness affirmations described in Sections V.E and V.F, the closecut by the outage management team of outage activities, the closecut/ disposition of all restart hst items, the review of organization and personnel adequacy (Section IV.E) including the corporate / site interface (Section IV.F), and the review / assessment of restart readiness assessment activities described in Section VI. The MRRC will review and evaluate both the inputs and rollup of these inputs and provide, through the Chairman, final restart approval and authorization. A MRRC readiness assessment will be conducted before initial mode change (Mode 5 to 4) and the full site readiness assessment will be completed before unit restart, defined as unit criticality.

Preliminary or intermediate assessments will be conducted as determined appropriate by the MRRC or the Site Vice President. The Plant Operations Review Committee will also review site readiness for initial mode change and unit restart.

The site readiness assessment process is depicted in Appendix 7.

Appendix 11, Startup and Power Ascension Plan, describes the management plan for ensuring the safe, controlled, and deliberate return to service of Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN). This plan defines and describes assessment hold points where reviews, affirmations, and approvals will be conducted. Control / assessment hold points will occur at Mode 5 prior to entry into Mode 4; Mode 3, prior to pulling control rods to achieve criticality; 30%

reactor power, +/- 10%; 65% reactor power, +/- 10%; 90% reactor power, +/- 5%; and 100% reactor power. This plan also describes additional oversight and checks during the startup and power ascension to review plant equipment and personnel performance. This plan integrates portions of other Restart Plan processes, outage closecut processes, and site startup processes and procedures with additional requirements set forth by the startup and power ascension plan.

associated restart plan and activities are appropriate to address those weakrr.ms, and that Ge restart plan is effectively implemented. Key review and assessment actinties inclue: (1) the technical program reviews referenced in Section IV.C; (2) a special SQN NSRB review of the restart plan; (3) a high-level, Senior Management Oversight Group review of the restart plan and overall restart readiness; (4) internal and external reviews of the BOP; (5) a Restart Readiness Team review of the Operations department's restart readiness; (6) an NSRB/QA special review of backlogs; (7) a comprehensive program of Nuclear Assurance  ;

assessments and audits; and (8) restart readiness oversight, assessment, and affirmation ,

processes described in Section V of this document. A listing of these activities is provided in  !

Appendix 1. ,

The application of these efforts in the restart plan development and implementation is described below.

VI.A IMPROVEMENT- AREA IDENTIFICATION - RESTART PLAN ADEQUACY As discussed in Section 1, an effort was underway prior to the shutdown of the units to ,

identify the root cause(s) or principal barriers to the successful accomplishment of TVA Generating Group objectives and to establish detailed action plans through an integrated Site .

Improvement Plan to address targeted areas for improvement. The identification of specific l and common causes/ barriers was accomplished through a management team review of recent 1 events, trend analyses, and internal and external assessments. In more broadly analyzing the underlying causes of overall performance weaknesses over the past several years, two general ,

causes were identified: ineffective resource management and ineffective ,

personnel / management performance. As a result of this recent and current analysis, the six l focus areas described in Section IV were identified for intensive short-term and continuing long-term improvement. ,

-l Three additional independent reviews are being employed to evaluate the accuracy of the  ;

above assessment and associated adequacy of the overall restart plan initiatives described in this document. They include an INPO problem / event analysis to determine if additional i underlying / common weaknesses exist (Reference 29); a special NSRB evaluation of the  !

restart plan scope and approach (References 10 and 31); and a review of the SQN history and  :

the restart plan by an independent industry Senior Management Oversight Group (References 8 and 28). The results of additional restart readiness assessments, reviews, and oversight activities described below will be evaluated for the need for additional focus or scope within the restart plan on an ongoing basis.

32

VI.B RESTART PLAN IMPLEMENTATION / EFFECTIVENESS - RESTART READINESS A combination of varied restart readiness processes and assessments / reviews will be conducted to support a determination of site readiness to safely restart and operate the units over the next operating cycle. The implementation of the Restart Plan, through readiness assessments / affirmations, BRC and MRRC review / oversight, and Gnal closure and documentation processes, provides a structured approach to line readiness assessment. The extensive use of multiple non-line assessments, reviews, and oversight activities is being additionally employed to address readiness in targeted areas such as the RRT review of the Operations department's readiness, and more general readiness assessments such as the Senior Management Oversight Group review addressing management, organization, j personnel, hardware, and technical program issues. The comprehensive Nuclear Assurance L restart assessment program (Reference 11) was developed by the consideration of programmatic, hardware, and personnel performance weaknesses. The TVA Nuclear Safety Review Board will meet for a final assessment of restart readiness just prior to restart of I unit 2 (Reference 34). Restart readiness assessments will be presented to and reviewed by  !

the MRRC for the determination of additional needed actions and/or integration into the  !

overall site readiness assessment rollup. I VI.C ASSESSMENT CAPABILITY AND EFFECTIVENESS - POSTRESTART ASSESSMENT A number of activities are ongoing to strengthen the assessment / root cause capability and effectiveness. Department readiness assessments and afnrmations will ensure that meaningful performance indicators are established and monitored and that these measures are being integrated into the postrestart Site Improvement Plan. A key element of the restructuring of the corporate organization described in Section IV.F is to clearly de6ne and enhance the corporate oversight functions and effectiveness. A comprehensive audit of the corrective action program has been conducted to assess implementation effectiveness and identify actions for further strengthening from both programmatic and implementation perspectives.

33

VII. CLOSURE AND DOCUMENTATION The MRRC will review the rollup documentation of Restart Plan completion as described in Section V.G. Documentation and closure will be tracked, compiled, and presented to the MRRC, VIII. POSTRESTART As stated in the objective to the Restart Plan (section II), the overall objectives of the SQN restart efforts are to remove or reduce barriers to effective plant operations and lay the - ,

foundation for continuing postrestart improvement. Prior to the current forced outage, the SQN Site Improvement Plan (SIP) was undergoing development and refm' ement to provide a living document for charting ongoing site improvement efforts; at the time of the shutdown, the SIP provided a starting framework for development of the restart activities described under this Restart Plan. As a result of implementation of the many restart activities associated with the Restart Plan, the scope, priority and schedule for SIP implementation require extensive updating and reevaluation. Following such updating, which is underway, the SIP will be integrated into the SQN business plan. This business plan will target improvement efforts correlated to overall station and generating group objectives. -

A Post Restart Plan is being developed and will be submitted to NRC 'before restart which j will describe how SQN will identify, prioritize, fund, implement and_ manage postrestart improvement activities. The management systems described in this plan will provide the basis for ensuring effective completion of post restart improvement activities and . ensuring effective management of resources to maintain safe and reliable operations into the future. ,

The Post Restart Plan will describe the SQN business planning process; work prioritization-rerocesses; the composition and significance of post restart backlogs; management controls and oversight to ensure effective implementation of post restart improvements; and -

identification of key post restart improvement efforts. ,

The above described processes and controls will be established before restart, Identification 1 ofimprovement priorities and schedules will be accomplished through "living"  ;

implementation of these processes.

APPENDIX 1 ASSESSMENT / REVIEW /OVERSIGIIT ACTIVITY LISTING The following assessments, reviews, and oversight activities are being performed to (1) ensure that areas needing improvements are identified, including the underlying cause(s) for overall performance weaknesses; (2) to ensure that the Restart Plan is appropriate to the-achievement of overall restart plan objectives; (3) to verify the proper implementation of the restart plan; and (4) to assess the effectiveness of restart actions, i.e., restart readiness.

I. Identification of Restart Focus Areas for Improvement

• Prior to unit shutdown, an overall Site Improvement Plan was developed to target key 1 areas for improving the ability to meet overall site and Generating Group objectives, i.e.,

nuclear safety / regulatory performance, plant capacity factor, and generation cost per kilowatt-hour. To develop this plan, the site management team reviewed previous events and trends and internal and external assessments / reviews. The plan included both software and hardware issues and included the following focus areas: BOP, Operations' performance, and backlogs.

• Following the shutdown, the site management team reviewed key areas for improvement during the forced outages, including the review of the SIP areas. An initial restart list of 52 items was developed. This list included both specific items to be implemented as well as actions to evaluate other areas for potential identiHcation of restart actions, e.g., an action to review corrective action (C/A) items or justi5 cations for continued operation (JCOs).

• Following the development of the 52 item list, site management solicited employee feedback from designated departments to determine whether additional signincant problems impacting nuclear safety, plant reliability, or operational performance existed that had not been identined in either the SIP or the 52 item list and whether the indicated ,

management priority for resolution was considered inappropriate, e.g., true risk not recognized and therefore scheduled in SIP postrestart; and to identify any specific individual concerns, e.g., a specine backlog item such as a hardware upgrade. This effort provided an overlap with some actions being taken as part of the 52 item list (Appendix 2).  ;

• As restart evaluation criteria evolved, additional reviews of the SIP and internal and '

external assessments / reviews were conducted by site management, and additional items ,

were added to the restart list as appropriate.

• INPO conducted a problem / event analysis using C/A documents for 1992 and 1993 to determine if additional problem areas existed that had not been identined by the above efforts. (Reference 29) 41 l

APPENDIX 1 IV. Reviews / Assessments of Restart Plan Implementation and Effectiveness - Restart Readiness (in addition to the review and readiness processes described in Section V of this document)

• EPRI and Altran review of the E/C recovery program and long-term program upgrades.

• Multiple Nuclear Assurance and Independent Safety Engineering assessments, audits,  ;

and followups of department, backlog, and program areas (Reference 11).

• Contract expertise using Reedy Associates in the Section XI program areas and Impell and Altran in the E/C program areas.

• The oversight panel for the team technical program reviews will review the actions i taken to address the team review findings (Reference 35).

• A review by an Operations department Restart Readiness Team to assess and verify the readiness of operations to conduct safe and effective reactor operations. This review team will be led by the Vice President, Nuclear Readiness (D. R. Keuter),

and will be composed of senior TVA managers and industry consultants '

(Reference 32).

• The Senior Management Oversight Group will conduct a week-long assessment of ,

overall site readiness for restart, addressing management, organization, personnel, hardware, and program issues (Reference 8).

t

• A special session for NSRB review of final SQN restart readiness following the NRC Operational Readiness Assessment Team (ORAT) inspection and before i mode 2 (Reference 34).

-l IV. Start-up Oversight

• Observations of the Operations department by Nuclear Assurance will continue during start-up and mode change evolution.

• The Operations department will have a team of nonshift SROs conducting 24-hour Operations oversight starting approximately one week in advance of Mode 4 and continuing through achievement of 100 percent power.

• An integrated startup and power ascension plan addressing site readiness reviews, augmented management oversight, material condition and housekeeping, regulatory closure, power ascension activities, and specified control / assessment holdpoints is being prepared.

APPENDIX 3 PROCESS FOR EVALUATING, ADDING OR DELETING POTENTIAL RESTART ITEMS I, Objective Provide a documented mechanism for evaluating, reviewing and approving potential restart .

items for addition or deletion to the current forced outage scope.  ;

II. Applicability As described in Section V. A of the Restart Plan. i III. Implementation The attached memorandum from Robert A. Fenech provides overall direction for evaluating restart items. Attachment Forms 3-1 and 3-2 provide the documented mechanism to obtain appropriate evaluation, review and approval of potential items for either addition or deletion.

Form Att.3-1 was developed early in the shutdown period for identification of any potential  ;

~

restart item. At the time of issuance of Revision I to this plan, Att.3-1 is generally used to document identification of (adding) potential restart non-WR items / issues or the basis for deleting or changing the scope of an existing non-hardware restart item. System related hardware items are generally added or deleted / changed by use of form Att.3-2 as described below to provide system engineer involvement in the decision-making process for outage hardware scope deletions and a mechanism for presenting system engineer disagreement with a non-restart determination to MRRC for final determination.

Form Att.3-2 was init; ally developed under Revision 0 to this plan to document restart work i item deletions. Form Att.3-2 issued under Revision I to this plan can be used to document both restart item additions or deletions. While emergent (post 5/1/93) WR's are evaluated -

by the WCG SRO's against the restart criteria and do not require an Att.3-2 for outage  ;

addition, an Att.3-2 may be used to document basis for addition for presentation to MRRC to ,

resolve any disagreement between the system engineer and outage management or the WCG regarding the restart determination. This application is also acceptable for similarly documenting / resolving system engineer disagreement for any item type, e.g., PER, DCN, etc. Att.3-2 is used in addition to the normal outage activity addition / deletion process  ;

provided in SSP 7.2.

As indicated in Appendix 4 MRRC approval of emergent (post 5/1/93) WR restart additions is not required and MRRC may delegate approval of emergent corrective action document '

restart additions to the daily corrective action Management Review Committee. Deletion of j previously defined restart items from the restart scope must be approved by MRRC; however MRRC may delegate authority to BRC for day-to-day implementation of WR deletions with followup MRRC briefing. Responsibility for MRRC briefing rests with the BRC.

'i e APPENDIX 4 BACKLOG REVIEW PROCESS OBJECTIVE

• Identify all site backlogs as of May 1,1993, and review (verify reviewed) to determine .

whether either the individual or aggregate impact of backlog items needs to be addressed before startup.

• Identify emergent backlog items after May 1,1993, and evaluate them for restart.

• The backlog review process, which defines the responsibilities of department managers (backlog owners), the Backlog Review Committee (BRC), system engineers, the Management Restart Review Committee (MRRC), and other site organizations, will be used to accomplish this task.

PROCESS I. Ensure Full Scope of Backlogs identified - Department Manager A. A backlog item is a pre-May 1,1993, item.

B. Beginning with the Sequoyah Improvement Plant (SIP) list, department managers review to affirm that other lists do not exist (e.g., EQ binder update backlog, NER, and licensing commitments) and identify additional lists to Backlog review Committee (BRC) by May 10, 1993.  ;

Note: A backlog is considered to be any accumulation of unimplemented work beyond active in-process levels. Questions regarding the application of this definition should be discussed with the MRRC. ,

C. Backlogs to be reviewed by system will be reviewed against the list of systems (Attachment 4-1-A) developed by Technical Support and the BRC as of May 17, 1993. These systems are typically safety, reliability, or balance of plant (BOP) related or common. Systems not included are, in general, non-process systems.

D. The list of site backlogs identified as of May 17, 1993, and categorized as requiring either BRC or department manager reviews is shown in Attachment 4-1-B. BRC evaluated backlogs are further broken down in Attachment 4-1-B to identify which' ,

will receive review by system and which will receive a programmatic review. The.

basis for backlog categorization is also shown in Attachment 4-1-B.

'II. Department Managed Backlogs

- Backlogs identified in Attachment 4-1-B as " Department Managed Backlogs" will be.

reviewed for restart by the department using Attachment 4-3 with recommended restart -

items brought to the MRRC for final restart determination, following the normal process. Each post restart backlog in the Department Managed Backlog category will be J evaluated by the department manager using the process in Attachment 4-4. The BRC '!

will review the department managed backlog evaluations and brief the MRRC on the ,

results of that review (See References 27 and 36).

i III. Backlog Review Committee Evaluated Backlogs - Department Manager Responsibilities' .

A. Review (or venfy reviewed) backlogs as of May 1,1993, against restart evaluation criteria (Attachment 4-2). ,

Note: Attachment 4-2 criteria reflect reformatting and explanation of application of -

essentially the same criteria previously distributed for use.

B. Backlog Review Documentation

1. Group backlog items by system. Evaluate %ckwt items against restart criteria in Attachment 4-2 and document the department r..anager evaluation on the' form in Attachment 4-3. A separate form is required for each item for the following -

backlogs:

V. MRRC Review of Backlog Evaluation  !

A presentation will be made to the MRRC for the 26 "BRC Evaluated Backlogs"  ;

evaluated by the BRC. Each presentation will consist of two parts. )

i A. Attachment 3 Evaluations for Restart '

Backlog items will be grouped and presented in three categories: restart, nonrestart, ,

and " grey." The presentation will focus on the "YES" and " grey" items with the l MRRC making / concurring with restart calls for these items. Backlog presenters to the MRRC will include the backlog owner, the BRC, or system engineers, as appropriate.

The backlog presenter is responsible for documenting restart decisions made in the  ;

MRRC meeting on Attachment 4-3 forms. The disposition of Attachment 4-3 documentation at the end of the MRRC meeting is as follows:

RESTART EVALUATION CRITERIA

. Actions needed to ensure technical specification (TS) operability will be completed before entering a mode for which associated requirement are applicable. Actions needed to satisfy NRC docketed commitments or agreements associated with the current outages (e.g., CAL items) will be completed before restart. The following screening criteria will be used to .

evaluate other open items / issues to determine what additional actions should be taken before restart of the units from the current outage. The criteria establish basic considerations  !

involving nuclear safety, plant reliability, and operational impacts for which assessments and ,

judgments must be applied, e.g., degree and probability or consequences ofimpact. ,

Potential restart items should be conservatively assessed and presented to the MRRC by the .

responsible organization / owner. The MRRC will either approve the item / issue for restart I scope inclusion or will provide the basis for why the item / issue should be addressed i following restart or the restart scope modified. '

• Adverse impact on safety system availability or performance, e.g., potential for causing frequent entry into TS action statements, potential for entry into short-term TS action -

statements, and potential to render a component or system incapable of performing intended design function.

• Significant challenge to plant / personnel performance because of either individual or i aggregate impact, e.g., high numbers of compensatory actions, disabled annunciators, and high maintenance backlog.

• High potential to impact plant operating reliability, e.g., likelihood for causing trips / transients, common or single failure point weaknesses, necessitates entry into short-term TS action statements, and likelihood for hardware failure before the end of the next l

operating cycle.

e Prudency of or need for working during two-unit outage, e.g., reduced TS action f statement applicability, reduced outage risk, and reduced operational impact. j The above criteria do not preclude approval and inclusion of activities that do not meet the criteria but are determined desirable / prudent in consideration of overall site objectives, e.g.,

activities associated with ALARA, resource, and/or efficiency optimization. ,

BACKLOG REVIEW COMMITTEE (BRC) CHARTER The BRC is established by the SQN Vice President as a subcommittee of the Management  !

Restart Review Committee (MRRC). The BRC consists of the following members: l l

H. 'R. Rogers, Lead  !

M. J. Lorek  !

I. Dibiase 1 C. R. Brimer The uRC is empowered to identify and evaluate all existing site backlogs as of May 1,1993, -

for their individual and aggregate impact on restart and, with the recommendation of the- -

backlog owner and affected system engineer (s), to make restart decisions on all backlog items. Specifically, the BRC will: ,

A. Establish the site backlog review process, defining the relative responsibilities of the site department managers (backlog owners), system engineers, MRRC, and Project ,

Management and Controls (PM&C), and obtain MRRC approval.

B. Implement the process approved:

1. Establish schedules for site organization evaluation and for participation in BRC l meetings, maintaining overall status of BRC work, including organization, backlog, {

and system completion. '!

2. Define and maintain records and documentation associated with the process.

3. Provide written verbal communication of BRC results to affected organizations (department managers and PM&C and to the MRRC).

f C. Use the collective experience and judgement of BRC members to evaluate the individual and collective impact of backlog items against the restart evaluation criteria to identity items that do and do not need to be completed prior to restart. The consideration of the causes of past transients and significant equipment, program, and personnel performance -l problems will provide a basis for the BRC's application of restart criteria to backlog  !'

items and issues. For individual or aggregate items that are not " clean cut" restart /postrestart or items for which significant schedule / resource impacts would be involved, the BRC will assess and document the level of equipment, personnel, or 'i program performance risk that could be expected if the issue is not resolved prior to restart and present these issues to the MRRC for final resolution. I l

i

r ATTACllMENT 4-5 .

Page 2 of 3 D. Backlogs present risk to effective plant operation because of the affect ofindividual or aggregate items and because of the demands that backlogs place on line organizations to manage them. Collateral to the BRC's primary responsibility, the BRC will document observations and formulate recommendations for improvement of how the site accumulates and manages backlogs for senior site management consideration. Recommendations may include improvements that could result from a combination of existing backlogs, improved backlog processes, clarification of ownership, or utilization of backlog indicators that flag significance as opposed to backlog number. Consideration will be given to how the present-condition of backlogs was reached and measures to prevent this from occurring in the future.

E. Perform additional reviews / evaluations as assigned by the Site VP or MRRC.

The backlog review process for which the BRC is responsible is shown in the attached flowchart.

APPENDIX 10 RESTART ITEM CLOSURE l

I.- Objective j

- This appendix provides the process for documenting completion of Restart Items. This process provides requirements for closure documentation, assignment of responsibilities and i appropriate levels of management review to ensure proper closure; (see Reference 37) .

'l II. Applicability This process applies to c!vare of all Restart items listed on the Restart Evaluations for SQN listing maintained by Project Management and Controls (Reference 14). This process is in  ;

addition to normal site activity closeout processes, e.g., WR/WO completion, corrective-action document completion etc. -

1 III. Implementation Closure for each restart item will be accomplished through use of a Restart item Closure .

Form as illustrated in. Attachment 10-1. The Attachment 10-1 form is an example; closure of  !

restart items using department established recreations / renditions of this form is acceptable l provided the department rendition provides for the same information and signatures. j As detailed in Attachment 10-2, use of the form will provide for brief documentation of the restart item, what actions were taken to resolve / address the item, reference to supporting -

documentation, signature of the evaluator of completion and review signature of the . ,

Department manager. The department manager will be responsible for maintaining the  ;

supporting documentation and ensuring the accuracy of the closure documentation. Upon completion of the form, the original should be maintained in the department operational  ;

readiness notebook with copies forwarded to the SQN Restart Manager (O&PS-4C) and .!

Project Management & Controls (O&PS-4G). .

. 4 APPENDIX 11 STARTUP AND POWER ASCENSION PLAN I. OllJECTIVE This appendix describes the management plan for ensuring the safe, controlled, and deliberate return to service of Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN). This plan defines and describes assessment hold points where reviews, affirmations, and . )provals will be conducted. This plan also describes additional oversight and checks during the startup and power ascension to review plant equipment and personnel performance. This plan integrates portions of other Restart Plan processes, outage closcout processes, and site startup processes and procedures with additional requirements set forth by this appendix.

II. ASSESSMENT IlOLD POINTS  ;

This plan establishes the following assessment hold points at which plant conditions are maintained until a prescribed assessment of site readiness for further progression, as defined by this appendix, is completed.

• Mode 5 prior to Mode 4 entry

• Mode 3 prior to Administrative Mode 2 entry (prior to pulling control rods to approach and achieve criticality)

• 30 percent reactor power +/- 10 percent

• 65 percent reactor power +/- 10 percent

• 90 percent reactor power +/- 5 percent

• 100 percent reactor power (assessment to approve continued operation)

Corresponding holdpoints requiring Plant Mansger approval for further increase in plant mode or power level will be established in the applicable general operating instructions. The -

basis for Plant Manager approval is addressed in this appendix. These holdpoint and associated operational allowances, e.g., +/- 10%, shall not preclude licensed responsibilities to take the unit, if determined necessary, to a reduced power level or operating mode to ensure safe and stable unit operation.

III. STARTUP AND POWER ASCENSION REVIEW AND APPROVAL MATRIX-The Startup and Power Ascension Review and Approval Matrix (attachment 11-1) identifies the review and assessment areas and the types of reviews and approvals for each assessment hold point. Supporting detail for the matrix requirements and associated assessment hold point checklist is contained in Sections IV. - IX.

APPENDIX 12 9 UNIT ONE TRANSITION FROM RESTART PLAN TO NORMAL PROCESSES I. OBJECTIVE This appendix describes the management plan for ensuring the safe, controlled, and deliberate return to service of Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQN) Unit One. This appendix defines and describes assessment hold points where reviews and approvals will be conducted. .

This appendix also describes additional oversight and checks during the startup and power ,

ascension to review plant equipment and personnel performance. This appendix integrates portions of other Restart Plan processes, outage closecut processes, and site startup processes and procedures with additional requirements set forth by this appendix.

.l The SQN restart plan and associated processes were established as management tools to ful.ly develop, integrate, and manage a large number of hardware and software efforts aimed at-establishing site readiness for safe and effective operations. The processes provided in the i restart plan augmented the preexisting processes used for the normal day-to-day operations at  :

SQN. The full transition to normal station processes will occur at such a time that the overall objectives of the Restart Plan are assured and adequate processes to support future effective operations are established.

II. PROCESS The following information provides the approach to the application and transition of existing processes to Unit 1.  ;

NRC Involvement - The last NRC hold point for Unit 2 has passed, and the NRC Restart Panel will be kept informed of the status of Unit 1 including any differences between the Unit 2 and Unit I restart approach. The regulatory oversight and inspection of TVA"s completion of the Unit 1 outage and startup will be provided as determined appropriate by the NRC. The regulatory interface, including management briefings / meetings and .,

commitment closecut, will be completed through normal processes. The mode change and restart of Unit I will be coordinated with the NRC. ,

Restart List - A list of items has been generated as part of the original Restart Plan. The items on that list approved as restart items by the Management Restart Review Committee (MRRC) can only be removed by the MRRC. 1 Corrective Action Documents - The process currently being used to identify corrective ,

action documents needing action or disposition before startup (Nuclear Assurance [NA] '

coding documents from the morning Management Review Committee meetings) will be 90

.. n continued for the Unit I startup. NA will provide the status of corrective action documents.

Addition and Deletion of New Work Orders and Work Reauests - Site Standard Practice (SSP) 7.2 " Outage Management" is the SQN procedure used to add or delete work orders and work request. Newly initiated work requests, meeting the restart criteria below, will be  ;

added to the Unit One outage scope by the Outage Manager. Deletion of previously defined outage scope is made by the Outage Manager with appropriate system engineer concurrence.

Work activities that are deleted from the outage scope, for performance as either a nonoutage or future outage activity, are presented to the MRRC for final approval.

System Readiness - System walkdowns have beer, conducted on Unit 1. System engineers will track the completion of the outage scope on tncir systems and conduct additional system J walkdowns (e.g., Normal Operating Temperature and Pressure [NOTP]). An activity to conduct NOTP walkdowns will be added to the outage schedule. The system engineers will review their system readiness with the Technical Support Manager, Operations Superintendent, and Plant Manager before restart. i Denartment Readiness - Department readiness reviews will be handled during the monthly SQN Management Assessment Review Team meetings.

Startun and Power Ascension - Outage closecut, startup, and power ascension will be conducted and controlled using SSP-7.2 and Operations' startup and operating procedures (e.g., checklists, general operating instructions technical specification component reports, etc.). The appropriate level of management involvement and oversight (e.g., special management reviews or Plant Operations Review Committee [PORC] reviews will be provided consistent with unit / outage / site performance. As a minimum, this willinclude senior TVA management approval before Mode 2 entry. SQN Site Vice President approval is required for all other mode changes.

A PORC review will be conducted before Mode 2 to review final closeort.

RESTART EVALUATION CRITERIA

• Actions needed to ensure technical specification (TS) operability will be completed before entering a mode for which the associated requirements are applicable except as allowed under the Limiting Condition for Operation 3.0.4 exception.

• Actions needed to satisfy NRC docketed commitments or agreements associated with l the current outages (e.g., CAL items) will be completed before startup.

• The following screening criteria will be used to evaluate other open items / issues to i determine what additional actions should be taken before the restart of the units from the current outages:

91

)

i

I o -n

- Adverse impact on safety system availability or performance. For example, the potential for causing frequent entry into TS action statements, the potential for entry into short-term TS action statements, and the potential to render a component or system incapable of performing the intended design function.

- Significant challenge to plant / personnel performance because of individual or aggregate impact. For example, high numbers of compensatory actions, disabled annunciators, high backlog numbers, and degraded or unreliable equipment ,

performance.

- High potential to impact plant operating reliability. For example, the likelihood for causing trips / transients. Common or single failure-point weaknesses necessitate entry ..

i into short-term TS action statements and the likelihood for hardware failure before the end of the next operating cycle. ,

r The above criteria do not preclude the approval and inclusion of activities that do not meet the criteria but are determined desirable / prudent in consideration of the overall site objectives (e.g., activities associated with ALARA, industrial safety, and /or resource optimization).

l III. ASSESSMENT IIOLD POINTS l

l This appendix establishes the following assessment hold points at which plant conditions are maintained until a prescribed assessment of site readiness for further progression, as defined by this appendix, is completed.

• Mode 5 prior to Mode 4 entry

• Mode 3 prior to Administrative Mode 2 entry (prior to pulling control rods to approach and achieve criticality)

• 30 percent reactor power +/- 10 percent

• 65 percent reactor power +/- 10 percent

• 90 percent reactor power +/- 5 percent

• 100 percent reactor power (assessment to approve continued operation)

Corresponding holdpoints_ requiring Plant Manager approval for further increase in plant mode or power level will be established in the applicable general operating instructions.

These holdpoint and associated operational allowances, e.g., +/- 10%, shall not preclude licensed responsibilities to take the unit, if determined necessary, to a reduced power level or operating mode to ensure safe and stable unit operation.

IV. STARTUP AND POWER ASCENSION REVIEW AND APPROVAL MATRIX The Startup and Power Ascension Review and Approval Matrix (Attachment 12-1) identifies the review and assessment areas and the types of reviews and approvals for each assessment 92

T c3.

hold point. Approval checklists (Attachment 12-2) and supporting approval checklist continuation forms (Attachment 12-3) will be completed for the associated assessment hold points. The assessment hold point, as defined in Section III above will be entered at the top of Attachment 12-2 and 12-3 forms. The checklists will be completed for the assochted ,

assessment hold points and reviewed by the Plant Manager and Site Vice President before providing approval in the General Operating procedure for unit progressio_n beyond that hold point defined condition. Appropriate implementation of normal processes for Unit One will be as described in this Appendix.
