CRYSTAL RIVER NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT UNIT 3 - USI A-46 Audit

Dear Mr. Anderson:

During the week of November 3,1997, the NRC staff will be performing an audit to verify FPC's implementation of the USl A-46 program. Specifically, the staffs audit will focus on determining if the A 46 program was completed and documented in accordance with FPC's commitments in the plant specific procedures for CR-3 docketed on September 16,1994, and will evaluate the open issues identified in the staffs safety evaluation, dated May 2,1996.

Enclosed is a copy of the staffs ".udit plan. -If you have any questions regarding this matter, please write or call me at (301) 415-1471.

Plan for Performing Plant Specific Audli Review of the Licensee's Implementation of the Resolution for USI A-46 Program at Crystal River Nuclear Generating Plant Unit 3 (CR 3)

Week of November 3 7,1997 1.

Pulpose:

De purpose of the audit review is to verify that the licensee's implementation of the USI A-46 program was completed and oocumented in accordance with the licensee's f

commitments in the Plant Specific Procedure for CR-3, Rev.1, docketed on September -

16,1994 (CR 3 PSP), supplemented by the NRC staffs Safety Evaluation on CR-3 Criteria and Procedures, dated May 2,1996.

I 2.

Audit Team:

4 The audit team will be led by a member from Mechanical Engineering Branch (EMEB)

P and include one member from Civil Engineering & Geoscience Branch (ECGB). A contractor from Brookhaven National Laboratory will participate in this audit.

i Note: Conduct of the audit has been coordinated with the NRR project manager, Region

~

II, and the Resident Inspectors.

3.

Maior Activities:

Nate: Prior to the site visit, the audit team has reviewed the licensee's summary report 4

and responses to the staffs request for additional information.

l he major elements of the audit tea n activities are identified below:

_._..u---.:-_-._--.,-._

- :. ;.c - -

..a

)

o 2-(1)

Review overall program implementation.

(2)

Review resolution of all open issues documented in the staffs Safety Evaluation dated May 2,1996.

(3)

Discuss the licensee's response, dated March 27 and August 1,1997, to the staffs request for additional information (RAls), dated January 28,1997.

(4)

Rt. view the licensee's general approach for equipment anchorage seismic adequacy verification in accordance with the criteria and procedures delineated in Section 4.4 of GIP-2.

(5)

Select sample equipment items fmm the safe shutdown equipment list included in the licensee's correspondence in item (3) above and from the licensee's Seismic Evaluation Report, Rev. O, docketed on January 2,1996. The sample will include, but not limited to, equipment from the following two special categories: (a) equipment considered to have met the applicable GIP-2 caveats, and (b) equipment listed in the seismic evaluation outlier summary table. For the selected equipment, the aucit team will verify, by reviewing the detailed documentation and/or walkdown inspection, the seismic adequacy of these equipment items by focusing on the following aspects, as applicable:

a.

Verify that the licensee has conectly applied or interpreted applicability of the GIP-2 caveats wherever the GlP 2 Bounding Spectrum or Generic Equipment Ruggedness Spectra were used as the basis for seismic capacity. Emphasis will be given to verifying that the seismic review engineers have considered all GIP-2 caveats before deciding on their applicability.

_3, b.

Verify that the licensee has correctly determined and compared equipment seismic capuity and demand.

I c.

Verify that the licensee has correctly determined equipment anchorage

- adequacy.

6 d.

Verify that the applicable caveats for each equipment category are met and l

there are no unusual design details which are not addressed by the

. equipment caveats, and which could compromise the seismic adequacy of the equipment.

e.

Verify that no seismic interaction concerns exist.

f.

Verify adequate resolution of equipment outliers (including the schedule for resolution), and/orjustification provided for not resolving outliers based on safety implications and impact on licensing basis requirements.

(6)

Review, by sampling, the relay portion of the program to verify that essential relays that affect equipment in Safe Shutdown E<1uipment List (SSEL) have been addressed and evaluated for functionality during and after the safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) in accordance with the gensal framework of criteria establi6ed in the staffs Safety Evaluation dated May 2,1996.

N (7)

Review, by sampling, the tanks and heat exchanger portion of the program to verify that criteria and procedures delineated in EPRI Report NP-5228, Revision 1, Volume 4, were adequately implemented.
