Gulf States Utilities EVALVATIrj.1 PERIOD: January 1, 1985 to January 31, 1986 PROJECT MANAGER:

Stephen M. Stern I.

INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the evaluation of the performance of Gulf States Utilities (GSU), the licensee and applicant for the River Bend Station, in the functional area of Licensing Activities.

The approach used in this evaluation is consistent with the provisions of NRR Office Letter No. 44, NRR Inputs to SALP Process, dated January 3, 1984, which requires that each organization responsible for preparing a Safety Evaluation provide a SALP input upon completion of the evaluation. The staff has applied the SALP evaluation criteria for the performance attributes based on first hand experience with the licensee or with the licensee's submittals.

The individual SALP evaluations for each rated issue were assembled into a matrix (seeAppendixA). Those data were then used, with apprnpriate weighting factors for the importance to safety of the licensing issue, to develop the over-all evaluation of the licensee's performance. The assessments for the individual ratings were also tempered with judgment regarding the appropriateness of the rating for the specific licensing issue.

Thi3 ap' roach is consistent with NRC Manual Chapter 0516, which specifies that p

each functional area evaluated will be assigned a perfomance category based on a composite of a number of attributes.

II.

SUMMARY

OF RESULTS The licensee has, in general, continued the high level of performance of the previous two SALP evaluations in the Licensing Activities area. There were a few exceptions to this general high level of performance; specifically, continued last minute changes in plant design, evidenced by two rather large FSAR amendments in the few weeks imediately preceding low power license issuance complicated the staff's task to perform an integrated safety review of the plant design. However, the licensee's response to staff inquiries on the impact of these changes was responsive, comprehensive and technically sound in most instances.

Overall, the licensee's strcngest point is management. The licensee proposed and the staff agreed (in part) to proposals to issue the low power operating license prior to completion of certain selected construction and test items.

The staff was satisfied with the procedures implemented by the licensee to manage the list of construction and test completion items.

In fact, the NRC Commissioners recomended that the management practices employed at River Bend w

w

- for managing work queues be considered for possible application to other plants.

A weak point may be in the area of monitoring and implementing lessons learned from others in the instrumentation and control area.

Based on the assessment approach described in the Introduction, the licensee's performance in the functional area of Licensing Activities is rated Category 2.

III. CRITERIA The seven evaluation criteria as given in NRC Manual Chapter 0516 (Table 1) were used in this assessment.

In addition, housekeeping in and around the plant is also discussed. These criteria are as follows:

A.

Management involvement in assuring quality B.

Approach to resolution of technical issues from a safety standpoint C.

Responsiveness to NRC initiatives D.

Enforcement History

  • E.

Staffing (includingmanagement)*

F.

Reporting and analysis of reportable events G.

Training qualification and effectiveness

  • H.

Housekeeping

  • IV. PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS The licensee's performance for the Licensing Activities functional area was evaluated for four of the eight criteria listed above. The data base of experience in this rating period for the remaining four criteria (asterisked above) was much smaller than for the other four criteria and therefore, only a summary comment is provided for those criteria.

This performance a:sessment is based on the staff's evaluation of the licensee's performance in support of licensing actions which had a significant level of activity during the assessment period. These actions included preparation of four supplements to the SER, low power licensing, meeting with the ACRS, pre-sentations in support of the proposed full power license for the Consnission, and operation of the plant during the startup testing program throughout half of the rating period. An extensive effort was required by the staff and the licensee to support these actions during the rating period. Those actions which were explicitly identified as completed licensing actions and reported inSERsupplementsarelistedbelou(92 actions):

i A.

Management Invo_lvement and Control in Assuring, Quality The licensee's management participated directly in almost all of the major licensing activities addressed in this report, Notable examples l

of the contributions that resu Rad from this management involvement are

{

summarized below:

)

The Senior Vice President - River Bend Nuclear Group and the plant manager were directly involved in the headquarters management review

.)

of the status on construction and test completion (March 26,1086),

and the site visit by the Director, NRR and staff on readiness for 1

licensing (May 13-14,1986).

i The Commissior.trs commended Gulf States Utilities (GSU) for its innovative practices for managing the queue of remaining construc-tion activities during the latter stages of licensing and early j

stages of low power startup.

l Furthermore, the N3C Commissioners commended GSU for its c0munica-i tions with the Comissioners, themselves, over their accelerated i

approach to completion of licemsing.

In January 1986, the staff had some concerns over the number of reportable events, scrams and LERs during the River Bend startup.

The staff was impressed with the innovative programs instituted by GSU to prioritize activities and focus resources on problem areas.

In particular, the staff was impressed with direct senior management (vice presidential level) involvement in these problem i

i area remediation activities.

I Furthermore, GSU has displayed a corporate commitment to resolution of issues through participation in various licensee review groups and owrars i

groups. The staff views this approach as indicative of a positive atti-tude towards management involvement and control in licensing activities.

i i

In a few instances, notably outstanding licensing issues number 4, 5, and l

10 listed in item IV above, the staff raised concerns to GSU senior management over delays in resolution.

GSU senior management became directly involved and mutually satisfactory resolutions of these issues were developed and implemented.

Based on the above detailed observations, GSU is rated Category 1 for this attribute.

l B.

Approach to Resolution of Technical Issues From a Safety Standpoint Responses to NRC inquiries by GSU have been general y viable with technically sound, conservative and thorough approaches in almost all cases. The applfcant has demonstrated a clear understanding of most i

technical issues involved in many review areas including containment i

systems, power systems,'and instrumentation and control. GSU was willing to perform additional studies, as necessary, to resolve technical issues.

1 1

  • However, in several areas, particularly outstanding licensing issues number 3, 4,15 and 31, the staff questioned the licensec's lack of i

understanding of the technical issues involved or the depth of their technical responses.,

)

While GSU is aggressive in resolving many safety issues, the staff feels that the utility has relied excessively on its Architect-Engineer for technical responses. Additionally, the staff is of the opinion that GSU tends to be more concerned in many instances with cost rather than takirj tha mbre conserystive approaches to issue resolution.

On the basis of the above observations, GSU is rated Category 2 in this area.

C.

Responsiveness to NRC Initiatives 4

GSU proposed an accelerated licensing schedule, which involved the resolution of a large number of open licensing items (see Part IV) during the latter phases of licensing. This accelerated licensing schedule was ca.mplicated by GSU's desire for a low power license while several con-struction and test items remained to be completed.

Given the potential complexities of the " tight" review schedule, GSU performed very well indeed. GSU demonstrated an aggressive attitude in the resolution of many issues, requesting conference calls and meetings which were promptly followed up with submittals or responses. Responses were generally technically sound and addressed staff concerns. However, several submittals, particularly those for outstanding items 4, S, 6 and

,31 either required frequent slippages in schedules or were late.

Of particular concern was the submission of yoluminous last minuto amend-ments to the FSAR in the weeks preceding the low power licensing. While most of these FSAR amendme.a.ts reflected previous docketed commitments, there was sufficient new material in these to complicate the staff's tight review schedule.

i On the basis of these observations, considering the compressed licensing schedule, a rating of Category 2 is appropriate for this crea.

1 D.

Enforcement History i

No basis for rating in this area.

E.

Staffing The comments in this area are based on the Project Mnager's observations during the rating period.

~

i-l j Positions wittiin GSU's organization are identified and authorities and responsibilities well defined. GSU licensing and engineering groups i

appear to be well staffed as indicated by representatives present at review meetings and site groups. During licensing, GSU consistently had staff available to discuss review items.

)

NRR's principal involvement with staffing issues during the review period involved the issues of engineering expertise or stdft. On this topic, the licensee was faced by a change in Conunission policy during the period j

~

between low. power and full power licensing. Licensee management and the staff negotiated a phased resolution on shift staffing which was accept-able to the Connissioners.

)

Accordingly, the staffing attribute at River Bend is rated Category 1.

F.

R portjmod Analysis of Reportable Events J

)

4 GSU received its low power operating license for the River Bend station on August 20, 1985, and their full poper operating license on November 2A, 1985. This evaluation covet-s the low pow 6r license period and fuM power i

license period through Jonvary 31, 1986. During this five month period, the licensee reported 95 non-security events;. Approximately 10% of these events do not appear to be reportable. Approximately phe half of 1

the events are associated with isolation of the Reactor % ter Cleanup J

3 System or Residual Heat Removal System due to personnel error or leakage 4

j detection system temperature switch module malfunctions. Corrective i

measures instituted by the licensee educed the number of events con-siderably during the month of January.

.None of the reported events was considered individually significant anough to warrant detailed staff followup. The above average number 1

i of events overall, howe'cer, prompted staff attention and a site visit January 28-30, to discuss RBS operating experience. The events that were most safety significant were the loss of offsite power, feedwater system problems, and va M operator bolting inadequacies (may be 4

generic). Operator errors in general including the RHR isolations, l

are also a con;ern. The number of such events appears to be decreasing, j

based on a review 07 the January reports.

]

P.BS experienced 7 reactor scrams during the evaluation period. This number is not abnormal for a new plant, but is higher than the averege j

frequency of 8i.9 scrams / plant / year, All equipment operated normally l

following each scr:hm, l

l The majority of the events appear to have been reported promptly and

{

accurately.

4 i

Based on these evaluations, the number and sepetition of reportable

{

events, and the reactor scrahi exper.ience, we reconnend a rating of Category 3 for the licensee's performance in frequency, reporting, 4

i and analysis of reportable events.

t

G.

Training and Qualification Effectiveness No basis far rating in this area.

H.

Housekeepina During the rating period the licensee was completing an accelerated construction program. Based on the observations of the Project Manager during four site visits during this period, the licensee made great strides in cleaning up the plant prior to the commence-ment of fuel loading and has maintained a satisfactory level of 1

cleanliness since that time.

(Insufficient basis for rating in thiscategory.)
