REVIEW, IMPLEMENTATION, AND REPORTING OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE REVIEW (OER) ITEMS 1.0 D

_URPOSE' -

This standard practice implements .the TVA program for review of operating experience reports within the nuclear industry and-

' implements- the requirements of Area Plan Procedure No. 0601.01. -

It is the intent of this procedure to ensure that operating information pertinent to plant safety originating both within and outside the ~

i utility organization is continually supplied to operators and other

' personnel and is incorporated into training and retraining programs.

This procedure also provides a method to ensure that high priority matters are dealt with promptly and discrimination is used in the dissemination of other information so that personnel are not deluged

= with unimportant and extraneous information. Also, technical reviews

. are conducted to preclude premature dissemination of conflicting or contradictory information. g s

2.0 _ SCOPE This standard practice describes how operating experience review reports are disseminated by the Nuclear Power Central Office (NCO) or other sources to the Regulatory Engineering Section (RES) at Sequoyah for review, and how

& information obtained from this review is acted upon. Items which may, qf as appropriate, be included under the OER program are:

-NRC Bulletins, Circulars, and Information Notices, f -In House NRC Inspection Reports 4

! -In House LERs/PR0s,

~ dF -NPRDS Reports

-Vendor Information Letters, j( -Externally Generated 10CFR21 Reports

-qf -INPO Summary (SEE-IN), SOERs, Outside Utility Reviews, Good Practices' .

-Industry Review of.LERs -

-Industry Nuclear NETWORK information (i.e. , SERs, S0s, O&MRs~, etc.)

1 Atomic Energy Clearinghouse

-In-House Corrective Action Reports (CARS) -

-Additional information determined appropriate by the Plant Manager or Regulatory Engineering Section.

. Appendix A The following are suggested guidelines which may be used to receive,.

track, screen and evaluate operating experience reviews.

1. ' Screening (Program Coordinator) .

Step 1 Upon receiving an OER item, determine if the operating .

experience report is applicable and enter the results on the OER item. Reports involving equipment or situations not comparable to what exists at the plant will be categorized as not applicable.

Step 2 Determine if it requires immediate attention and enter this information on the OER item.

' Step 3 Identify on the OER item the plant groups that should receive "Information Only" copies of the OER and which plant groups are assigned review and dispositioning responsibilities.

2. Screening Follow-Up (OER Administrator)

Step 1 The OER Administrator shall update attachment ~1 to reflect results of the screening process and place attachment I and a copy of the OER item in the OER files.

Step 2 Update' the tracking system.

(1) Enter the results from the screening process.

(2)' Close out those reports that were classified as not applicable to the plant.

(3) Enter evaluation assignment information for reports

. classified as applicable to the plant.

Step 3 Ensure that reports identified in the screening process as requiring immediate attention are passed along so that the reports are processed on a timely basis.

. Step 4 Route "Information'0nly" copies of applicable operating experience reports to the plant groups identified on the screening sheet as having a need for the information.

-Step 5 Prepare applicable reports for errluation. ~

(1) Enter the evaluation assignment information on the ~

review sheet.

(2) Attach a copy of Attachment 2 (Transmittal. Sheet) to the package (report and all information developed during '

the screening process) to the evaluation form (Attachment 3) and forward to the assigned evaluator. -

" ~ Standard Practice 'Page 10 SQA26 Appendix A (Continued) Rev. 6 _

3. Evaluation (Assigned Evaluator)

The objective of the evaluation process is to determine the impli-cations an operating experience item might have for the plant and to -

propose corrective actions. The adequacy of plant procedures, design, and operating practices for minimizing the probability and consequences of the reported occurrence should be assessed.

In formulating the proposed corrective actions, the following areas should be considered: .

(1) Changes to operating, maintenance, test, and emergency response-procedures, (2) Changes to the emergency plan and its implementing procedures, (3) Changes to training, radiation protection, inspection, and administration control programs and procedures, and (4) Changes to. plant design.

If the operating experience report contains multiple recommendations, such as an INPO SOER, each recommendation should be addressed

separately and plant-specific corrective actions proposed for each recommendation, as appropriate. This does not preclude additional

' or alternate corrective actions not addressed in the operating experience report from being proposed for consideration.

Step 1 Sign and date the Attachment 2 and return to RES.

Step 2 Perform the evaluation and prepare the evaluation report using addittenal sheets as necessary. If more than 20 or 60 days are' required to complete this evaluation, request an extention as necessary from RES and note this extention on the Attachment 3. Any evaluation related to or affecting of 10 CFR 50.49 equipment, shall be coordinated with the EQ d#

d6 Coordinator prior to returning Attachment 3 to the program coordinator (RES).

Step 3 Complete the OER Evaluation Form, Attachment 3, and attach it to the evaluation report.

Step 4 Return the evaluation package to the program coordinator' by the date specified or request an extension from RES if needed.

pg 4. Evaluation Follow-Up (Program Coordinator) -

Step 1 Review the evaluation package and either concur by signing '

and dating the review sheet or return the package with comments to the evaluator for further review.

Step 2 Update.the tracking' system. -

(1) Close out those reports for which the evaluation disclosed no inadequacies or problems, and no correc-

~

tive actions were recommended.

(2) Enter assignment information for reports that have recommended corrective actions. (Track these correc-ti've actions to completion).

Step 3 Submit the corrective action (Attachment 4) to cognizant plant / group supervisors for action.

Step 4 Place a copy of the evaluation report in the program files.

Step 5 ' Transmit a copy of any completed Attachment 3 forms which .

SE . relates to 10CFR50.49 (Environmental Qualification) to the EQ Coordinator.

h 5., Corrective Action (Plant / Group Supervisors)

The cognizant plant / group supervisor (s) is responsible for completing corrective actions identified in the evaluation process and for keeping the program coordinator informed on the completion status.

Step 1 Upon receipt of an attachment 4, which includes the

• recommended corrective actions, ensure that the corrective actions are assigned and scheduled for completion by the requested due date or request a due date extension from RES if required.

p Step 2 When~ corrective actions have been reported complete, verify

-jf their completion and adequacy. Completed corrective actions f related to or involving 10CFR50.49 equip'ent, m shall be coordinated with the EQ Coordinator prior to returning Attachment 4 to the program coordinator (RES).

Step 3 Complete the OER sheet, Attachment 4, and return the entire package to the program coordinator after all corrective ,

actions have been completed. Remarks should include a summary _

description of the corrective actions that were completed. .

Discuss any differences between the recommended corrective -

actions and what was actually completed, and indicate the completion date.

The types of events on which reports should be written are listed below. This list may not be all inclusive, and if doubt exists, the general rule is to document the event.

(1) Events where equipment or systems were subjected to conditions in excess of operating or design limitations. The report should include the appropriate plant parameters, their operating and/or design limits and the amount each was exceeded.

(2) Events where unusual values of monitored plant parameters are noted.

(3) Events where unusual trends are noted in the course of monitoring plant operating conditions.

e Note: For 2 and 3 above, these events should be reported.even though operating or design limits have not been exceeded.

- (4) Emergency shutdowns, automatic or manual, of the plant or associated systems.

(5) Operational errors that damaged or had a high probability of damaging equipment or systems. This category. covers all opera-tional events including maintenance, testing, calibration, etc.

(6) Malfunctions of components, piping systems or electrical sys-tems, other than routine adjustments or maintenance resulting from normal wear. . Examples of malfunctions to be -reported are:

(a) Failure of a component part which would indicate a possible design deficiency.

(b) Malfunction of a component or system that did or could (if it got worse) cause a plant shutdown.

.(c) Malfunctions that require component replacement.

(d) Halfunctions caused by improper maintenance.

(e) Excessive frequency of minor repairs, or repeated failures. 1 (7) Each failure or malfunction of a safety related system or component including test deficiencies.

The discussion of co~rrective action taken or planned should provide sufficient information to permit an evaluation of its adequacy. For example, it is not sufficient to state that the procedure was changed. The scope of the changes should be identified.

Step 1 Conduct an' initial investigation of the event to determine what happened, apparent causes, and immediate corrective

, actions.

Step 2 Prepare an in-house-event report (Supplement A, Attachment 1)

! or a Potential Reportable Occurrence (PRO). Contact RES-for a report number for Supplement A, Attachment 1.

Step _3 Forward a copy of the report to the Operating Experience. #

the PRO as required in SQA-84, Compliance shall perform trends on PR0s and Licensee Event Reports (LERs) and

. forward that information to the Program Coordinator to enter into'the in-house event reporting system.

6.2 Screening (Program Coordinator)

The objective of the screening process is to identify in-house events that are significant with respect to plant safety and reliability.

This ;s erves to highlight these more important events for purposes of further evaluation and reporting.

The Screening Guide provided in Exhibit 2 will be used to. select those in-house events-that are most likely to be significant. Three categories of criteria are shown in the screening guide:

Significant, Conditionally Significant, and Normal. Those events falling into the first category normally will be classified significant unless, in the screener's judgement, special considera-

~

tions or circumstances make the event not significant.

Events falling into the 'second ' category will require further assessment by the. screener to determine significance, as indicated by the subheadings under each criteria. Events placed in this ~

second category will eventually be recategorized significant or ,

normal, depending on the results of the screener's assessment. .

Events in the third categor.y are typically. normal unless there are special circumstances.

If an-in-house event is categorized significant, the next considera- ~

tion is whether the event applies to other nuclear power plants, i.e., if it is generic. ,

Step 3 Provide a copy of significant in-house event reports to INPO.

Step 4 Decide which of the significant events designated as generic should be reported via. Nuclear NETWORK, obtain the necessary management approvals and enter the event description into Nuclear NETWORK.

' Step 5 Prepare appropriate in-house event reports for evaluation.

(1) Enter the evaluation assignment information on the In-House Event Review Sheet, (Supplement A, Attachment 2).

(2) Assess the priority- for evaluation based on the relative significance of the event and assign the expected com '

, pletion date~in accordance with this priority.

(3) Attach the package (event report and.all information developed during the screening process) to forward to

'the assigned evaluator (s).

6.4 Evaluation (Assigned Evaluator)

The primary objective of the evaluation process is to ensure that significant in-house events and their causes are thoroughly under-stood and that effective corrective actions are recommended.

All in-house event reports that are categorized significant in the screening process will be reviewed by an assigned evaluator to deter-mine if the report has adequately described the event and addressed all the~ concerns raised by the event.

The assigned evaluator will conduct investigations, interviews, and research as necessary for a thorough evaluation. If the evaluator is confronted with areas beyond his technical knowledge or experience, he should' contact individuals or organizations having the required info rmation.

The event also should be reviewed in the context of previous related ~

events that have occurred at the plant. Recurrence rate and trend ',

patterns should be examined for the purpose of identifying declining performance and uncovering. clues to the root causes of the failures.

The adequacy of past corrective actions on recurring problems also should be evaluated.

The final in-house event report will receive a second, multidisci-plinary review by cognizant individuals or an established review -

group independent 'of the plant management. This is to help ensure that important aspects of'the event are not overlooked.

Step 2 Update the tracking. system by closing out the event when all corrective actions have been completed.

Step 3 Place a copy of the completed review sheet and all related information in the program files.

7.0 PROGRAM EFFECTIVENESS REVIEW (Site Quality Assurance Staff)

The purpose of the program effectiveness review is to ensure the site QA staff periodically monitors:the success of the operating experience program in attaining its desired objectives and suggests needed improvements to the program. (Review may be conducted on an annual basis.

Results of the review should be distributed to the Site

• Director, Plant Manager, and Site Services Manager). _

.The effectiveness review should not focus on the details of program administration and procedure adherence but on the end results of the p rogram.
