- Abstract -

In a study sponsored by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Pacific Northwest laboratory he.3 dtveloped and applied a methodology for deriving plant specific risk-based guidance for the auxiliary feedwater (AIM') system at pressurized water reactors that have not undergone probabilistic risk assessment (PRA). This methodology uses existing PRA results and plant operating experience information. Existing PRA-based inspection guidance information recently developed for the NRC for various plants was used to identify generic component failure modes. j This information was then combined with plant-specific and industry-wide component information and failure data to

- identify failure modes and failure mechanisms for the AFWsystem at the selected plants. Prairie Island was selected as I the seventh plant for study. The pr(xtuct of this effort is a prioritized listing of AFW failures which have occurred at the plant and at other PWRs. This listing is intended for use by NRC inspectors in the preparation of inspection plans addressing AFW risk.important components at the Praitic Island plant.

Summary This document presents a compilation of auxiliary feedwater (AFW) system failure information which has been screened for risk significance in terms of failure frequency and degradation of system performance. It is a risk-prioritized listing of failure events and their causes that are significant enough to warrant consideration in inspection planning at the Prairic Island plant. This information is presented to provide inspectors with increased resources for inspection planning at Prairie Island.

The risk importance of various component failure modes are identified by analpis of the results of probabilistic risk assessments (PRAs) for many pressurized water reactors (PWRs). However, the component failure categories identified in PRAs are rather broad, because the failure data used in the PRAs is an aggregate of many individual failures having a variety of root causes. In order to help inspectors foc's on specific aspects of component operation, maintenance and design which might cause these failures, an extensive review of component failure information was performed to identify and rank the root causes of these component failures. Both Prairie Island and industry-wide failure information was analyzed. Failure causes were sorted on the basis of frequency of occurrence and seriousness of consequence, and categorized as common cause failures, human errors, design problems, or component failures.

This information is presented in the body of this document. Section 3.0 provides brief descriptions of these risk. ,

important failure causes, and Section 5.0 presents more extensive discussions, with specific examples and references.

The entries in the two sections are cross-referenced.

- An abbreviated system walkdown is presented in Section 3.2 which includes only components identified as risk l

important. 'Ihis table lists the system lineup for normal, standby system operation.

3 This information permits an inspector to concentrate on components important to the prcvention of core damage.

However,it is important to note that inspections should not focus exclusively on these components. Other compo-l nents which perform essential functions, but which are not included because of high reliability or redundancy, must also be addressed to ensure that degradation does not increase their failure probabilities, and hence their risk importances.
