EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

Beaver Valley Unit 2 Nuclear Power Plant inspection Report No. 50-412/98-301 Coerations Four Unit 2 senior reactor operator instant (SROI) candidates passed all portions of the initial license examination.

Good performance was noted during the Unit 2 examination in the area of crew communications, control board awareness, and crew briefings during the simulator portion of the operating examination. The NRC examiners observed communications to be direct, succinct, and that all crew members were kept wellinformed. Crew briefings were routinely held when time permitted. The written examination was developed at the appropriate SRO knowledge level, as were the job performance measures and follow-up questions. Several JPMs, in lieu of questions, were appropriately developed to test the knowledge level of the applicants in the administrative area of the examination.

Current operator license training is being conducted in accordance with RG 1.8 Rev. 2.

Appropriate waivers were submitted by the facility licensee and were addressed by the NRC staff.

The examiners concluded that the procedures used were complete in their technical content, were well written, and were clear and understandable for the user.

With respect to licensee restart item P-14, technical specifications surveillance scheduling, was acceptably completed.

With respect to licensee restart items P 15 and P-19, plans and procedures for the new "on-line" scheduling process appear to be in place, but the effectiveness of this procedure remains to be realized.

With respect to licensee restart items M 9 and P-16, during the shutdown, the f acility appeared to have taken adequate steps to reduce the shift workload burden due to post maintenance testing; however, the effectiveness of this process remains to be realized.

The facility developed a plan for upgrading TS training in requalification programs for licensed and nonlicensed operators, as stated in their restart plan. GET and GERT now contain TS training for all non licensed personnel and is of appropriate quality. "Just in time " training was enhanced to include training of operating crews prior to important evolutions.

05 Operator Training and Qualifications 05.1 Senior Reactor Ooerator Initial Examinations i

a. SE921 The examination was prepared by Beaver Valley Power Station (BVPS) personnel in accordance with the guidelines in interim Revision 8, of NUREG-1021," Examiner Standards." The NRC examiners administered initial operating licensing portion of the examination to four Unit 2 senior reactor operator instant (SROI) candidates.

The written exam: nation was administered by the facility's training organization,

b. Observations and Findir.as The results of SRO examination for Unit 2 are summarized below:

SRO Pass / Fail Written 4/0 Operating 4/0 Overall 4/0 Overall the entire examination was well written and validated by the licensee prior to the NRC reviewing it. This was evidenced by the few changes that were required by the NRC after their review.

The written portion, job performance measures (JPMs) and simulator scenarios were developed by BVPS and their contractor in accordance with NR-1021. All individuals involved signed a security agreement once the development of the examination commenced. BVPS personnel validated the operation portions of the examination prior to their submitting it to the NRC. The NRC subsequently reviewed and observed the validation of all portions of the proposed examination.

During the examination preparation week (August 3-7,1998)the NRC examiners noted that the facility staff had performed good validation of the new simulator scenarios and JPM's, because little or no changes were required after the demonstrations.

The written portion of the examination was administered on August 17,1998,and consisted of 100 multiple choice questions. Prior to administration there were minor editorial comments noted by the NRC, that were promptly corrected by the licensee.

2 17-21,1998, The operating portion of the examination was conducted from August All JPMs were followed and consisted of four simulator scenarios and ten JPMs.

up with two system related questions. All candidates were also examined using JPMs and/or questions to evaluate the administrative requirement portion of the examination.

Simulator and JPM performance by the candidates was good. Communication was also good, including the use of repeat backs. The exarniners noted that crew briefings were routinely performed by the SROs. Good control board awareness by all of the candidates was evident throughout each of the four scenarios.

c. . Conclusions The candidates performed well on both the written and operating portions of the examination. The candidates were well prepared for the examination, indicating that the f acility thoroughly evaluated the knowledge and ability of each candidate in i

an effort to determine their readiness to sit for an initial NRC, SROI examination.  ;

Crew communications, control board awareness, and crew briefings were good. As noted in past BVPS NRC reports, the training department, did wellin adhering to the examiner standards and in developing the examination materials needed to administer the examinations.

05.2 Reaulatorv Guide (RG) 1.8 Rev. 2 Reauirements Insoection I

a. Scoce (IP 41500) I RG 1.8 Rev. 2 requires certain requirements, and certain obligations be satisfied by a license candidate prior to taking the examination for a hot Senior Reactor Operators license. The inspectors reviewed the four candidates' training records and NRC records to verify compliance with these requirements.

I

)

b. Observations and Findinas RG 1.8 requires that:
  • Each candidate, for a senior license, have a high school diploma or equivalent. The inspectors verified that all candidates met or exceeded the requirement.
  • Each candidate, for a senior license, have four years of responsible power plant experience. The inspectors verified that all candidates met or exceeded the requiroment.

  • Each candidate, for a senior license, serve three months as an extra person on shift in training for that position. Three months is the equivalent of 520 hours0.00602 days <br />0.144 hours <br />8.597884e-4 weeks <br />1.9786e-4 months <br /> for a 40 hour4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> work week. The candidates did not meet this requirement, however, the NRC granted a waiver on August 17,1998, to take the examination. This may result in ,

a condition on the issued license. l l

e Each candidate, for a hot license, should manipulete controls of the facility during a j minimum of five reactivity changes. The inspectors verified that all candidates met I or exceeded the requirement [10 CFR 55.31(a)(5)). The candidates did not meet  !

I this requirement, however, the NRC granted a waiver on August 17,1998, to take the examination and the licenses will not be issued until this requirement is met.

The licensee agreed, via a letter dated July 13,1998, that the candidates will be placed in the requalification training program as if the licenses are issued.

c. Conclusions Current operator license training is being conducted in accordance with RG 1.8 Rev. 2. Appropriate waivers were submitted by the facility licensee in a timely manner and were addressed by the NRC staff.

08 Miscellaneous Operations issues 08.1 Condition Reoort

. In NRC inspection report 50/334 97 300 the inspector documented inconsistencies within certain documents regarding training requirements. Although, the licensee was conducting the training of perspective operators in accordance with RG 1.8, Rev. 2 other documents listed different training requirements . The licensee issued Leadition Report (CR) 980734, on April 9,1998, that described the inconsistencies. During this inspection, the inspector reviewed the licensee's corrective actions to the CR, and found them satisfactory. Changes to documents reflecting proper training requirements for operators, maintenance personnel and other personnel were being tracked by the licensee's tracking system until licensing basis document are properly changed.

08.2 Procedures (IP 42700)

During the shutdowr, period, the operating procedures underwent major revisions.

The procedures used during the simulator and JPM exercises were reviewed to verify if technical adequacy of the procedures was consistent with desired actions and modes of operation and to verify the ability of procedure (content and format) to be used easily.

i The examiners concluded that the procedures used were complete in their technical content, were well v0ritten, and were clear and understandable for the us'e rs.

{l. Maintenance M8.1 Technical Soecification (TS) Surveillance Schedulina and Trackina,

s. Scone UP 62700)

The inspector evaluated the status of facility restart issue P-14, that addressed centralization of TS surveillance scheduling and tracking in one database, under one Surveillance Coordinator. This was accomplished by a review of the applicable procedure and interviews of the surveillance coordinator and schedulers,

b. Observations and Findinas NPDAP 8.12 Rev 3 " Control and Coordination of Technical Specification Surveillances" defines the responsibilities of the surveillance coordinator. This position tracks all surveillances with frequencies greater than or equal to weekly, including conditional surveillances which may, or may not, be required based on plant operating mode. This tracking is accomplished with a database in the facility's MP (maintenance planning system) software. Required periodic surveillances are incorporated into the baseline 12 week schedule, that is generated with a software called "Primavera." Conditional surveillances are scheduled for the applicable plant mode. The su.veillance coordinator generates reports of potential conditional surveillances and coordinates with schedule preparation personnel reports to ensure required surveillances are indicated. The coordinator is informed of completion of surveillances and any necessary changes such as increased frequency testing requirements both by E-mail and hard copy, then he enters this information into MP.

The inspector reviewed activities performed to verify the accuracy of the consolidated database. The facility had performed an extensive review to ensure that procedures existed to properly test all (TS) requirements. This review was discussed in integrated report 50 344&412/97-11. As a result of this review the f acility generated a software matrix able to cross reference TS's and procedures. ,

This software cross matrix is redundant to an existing hard copy matrix. The surveillance coordinator had verified that all procedures for which he was responsible for had been correctly entered into MP. A partial audit by Ouality Assurance was performed with minor discrepancies resolved.

During this inspection, the coordinator was in the process of verifying that these procedures were correctly referenced in the hard copy technical specification matrix. As a result of this review, additional required changes had been identified which will be incorporated into a future review of the matrix.

Conclusions

c. .

This restart item (P 14) was acceptably completed.

M8.2 Work 2ontrol

a. Scone UP 62700)

The inspector evaluated the status of facility restart issues P-15 and P-19, which addressed the implementation of a 12 week work management process and a combined 12 week / forced outage schedule.

1

b. Observations and Findinos l The week of this inspection was the second week of the facility's revised scheduling and work control process. Scheduling of work was divided into a 12 week "on-line" schedule and an outage schedule. With the plant in an extended forced outage, these schedules have been combined into one schedule. The on-line l schedule is planned around a baseline schedule of work windows for systems and '

trains. Routine preventive maintenance and surveillance items are added to this schedule, along with corrective maintenance. Work is accommodated in the present schedule or the next 12 week scheoule based on priority. The on-line schedulers are current or former SROs for each unit. Once a week, meetings were held between the schedulers, work week management personnel, and supervisors to monitor preparation for future work weeks in advance of scheduled oerformance.

This meeting also includes readiness of current planned work to proceed. The inspector observed a meeting and considered the interaction a benefit.

Outage work was normally planned separately from on-line work. Due to the extended forced outage, the potential benefits of the 12 week schedule were not being realized. The 12 week schedule had been prepared by the on-line schedulers, but any outage related work that could be performed was given priority and fit into the schedule, sometimes with as little as one shift notice. As a result, the potential operational safety benefits of the new schedule and evaluation of equipment out of service were not being realized. These benefits would include ensuring safety related equipment was not removed from service during operations for longer than necessary due to lack of personnel, parts, or interdepartmental coordination, and timely PRA review of the proposed schedule. Since the schedule may have changes subsequent to PRA review, the inspector verified that the facility has an operations department shutdown risk assessment procedure to verify required equipment is operable despite late schedule changes.

Due to the present overlap between shutdown and on-line schedules, the facility did not intend to begin tracking performance indicators for the effectiveness of the revised process until the unit was back on line.

c. Conclusions With respect to licensee restart items P-15 and P-19, plans and procedures for the new "on-line" maintenance scheduling process appear to be in place, but the j effectiveness of this procedure remains to be realized.

M8.3 Post Maintenance Testina

a. Scone flP 62700)

The inspector reviewed the status of restart items M-9 and P 16. These items addressed review of outstanding post maintenance testing items for restart, and revision of the post maintenance testing process to reduce a work load burden on the operating shift.

b. Observations and Findinas item M-9 concerned verifying required post maintenance testing was completed.

The inspector obtained a printout of work orders that had been statused as complete but awaiting post maintenance testing (PMT) and interviewed the PMT SRO. This individual was using the same printout, verifying that post maintenance He testing paperwork was in the centrol room or tracking it down if it was not.

was also coordinating with work control and the control room to ensure necessary work was completed for restart and to schedule specific PMT activities as necessary. The inspector considered the assignment of a dedicated individual and his evaluation to be appropriate.

Item P-16 concerned revision of the post maintenance testing process to better ensure appropriate post maintenance testing requirements were determined and performed prior to declaring equipment operable. This was being addressed in two parts. An SRO per unit was assigned to work control to evaluate work packages prior to scheduling and modify post maintenance testing requirements if necessary.

The second measure was the development of a post maintenance testing procedure to aid shift personnelin determining appropriate post maintenance testing.

Development of this procedure had just started and the form of the end product was not deterrnined. The inspector considered the SRO reviews at the planning and scheduling stage, coupled with the dedicated SRO post maintenance testing reviewer for mode change to be adequate for startup.

c. Conclusions With respect to licensee restart item M 9 and P-16, during the shutdown, the f acility appeared to have taken adequate steps to reduce the shift work load burden due to post maintenance testing, however the effectiveness of this process remains to be realized.

M8.4 Licensee " Culture" Enhancements

a. Scooe (IP 62700)

The inspector reviewed the status of the following items listed as " culture" enhancements in the licensee's restart plan: 1) Develop a plan to upgrade licensed and nonlicensed requalification training programs for increased emphasis on technical specifications. 2) Developed a plan to upgrade General Employee Training l

l l

7 (GET) and General Empbyee Refresher Training (GERT) programs ensuring increased sensitivity to Technical Specification (TS) compliance. 3) Develop a "Just in Time" training plan to train all operating crews involved in an activity prior to the performance of the identified activity. A fourth item concerning " lessons learned,"

from the outage, was not ready for inspection.

b. Observations and Findmos The Training Administrative Manual had been changed to require a two hour session concerning technical specifications in each module for both programs. This training was in additio'n to TS training presented with each specific system. This training

, was scheduled to commence with the next module (module 5) for non licensed l operator training and had already commenced for licensed operator training. The

inspector reviewed the lesson plan for the session taught and considered it to be of 1 appropriate quality.

The inspector reviewed Addenduin 98.5 to GERT which described TS's including; their development, ownership of the document, responsibility for implementation, and purpose for the document. The inspector verified that the addendum was presented to all employees, and that the training will be presented at each session of GET in the future.

The Operations Department in conjunctbn with the Training Department developed a "just in time" training program. The inspector reviewed documents and had discussions with training department personnel regarding training that was presented to operators during this extended outage as follows: All operators have received training regarding changes to procedures altered during this outage.

Operators also received training on design changes implemented during this outage.

2 To be completed is training for start up and heat up of the plant prior to the overall plant start up. Training management informed the inspector that this training will

) take place just prior to returning the unit to service.

c. Conclusions 1

The facility developed a plan for upgrading TS training in the requalification programs for licensed and nonlicensed operators, as stated in their restart plan, GET and GERT now contains TS training for all non licensed personnel and is of

appropriate quality. "Just in time " training was enhanced to include training of i operating crews prior to important evolutions.
