SUBJECT:

CRDM PENETRATION CRACKING ISSUE DATE: March 11,1992 Attached are my trip reports from attending the NUMARK AHAC600 group meeting on February 19,1993 and the NRC meeting on March 3,1993 on this issue. Also, available are handouts from the WOG Material subcommittee meeting in Pittsburgh on March 4th and 5th, which was attended by Dr. Jim Perrin from L:JB. Three plants, DC Cook Unit 2. Point Beach Unit 1 and Oconee have volunteered to inspect their Rx head CRDM penetrations during 1994. As a prudent action and to protect its investment, Salem 1 should plan an inspection during 1R12 (Spring 95) subject to the NRC approval of the NDE acceptance criteria and successful development of NDE and repair technology by the vendors. During presentation to the NRC by N'JMARK, the NRC indicated its disappointment regarding industry position on Rx head leak and boric acid wastage based on Turkey Point, Salem and other plants. Bill Russell, Associate Director-NRR, wants industry to explain how plants operating at pretent are considered safe when they do not have a reactor head leak detection system. Mode 3 walkdown and visualinspection (even with new shroud doors) are considered inadequate because plant may have a good operating record of 300-400 days. NRC wants above position submitted by WOG, CEOG and B&WOG. It then wants to review and document its position why it is safe ! to continue to operate until a plant conducts its inspection. The NRC Senior Management seems to be reacting to the external pressure on this issue. Due to the complexity and long term nature of this project, it is recommended that a l Project Manager be assigned by E&PB, who will prepare and implement a strategic l' plan. This strategic plan could be developed from elements of the attached action plan. Senior Management needs to be briefed regarding resources which may be j required during 94-95. Copies of the handout are not being attached to this letter, but are available if anyone requires it. p\

Copes-Vulcan Valve Opening Time for Pressurtzer PORV/SV Thermal Hydraulic Analysis Gentlemen; Per your telephonc tcquest of Jar.um la,19M, the followingi technical inforrnat on sent to clarify the technical input Jsed for the Pressurizer PORV/SV thermal hydraulic analyds. The original thermal hydraulic analpis was perfctmed by both ABB Imlell and PSE&G 1985. This analysis is the basis that was used by the NRC in 'he:r review and le r:fere in the NRC Safety Ee.luatien Report that we subtruned to PS2&G 10, 1990. on May

 ; -   The 1985 thermal hydraulic analysis for the PORY two-valve case utilized a stroke t 150 ms. The NRC had acknowledged a the SER that the 150 ms value used in was conservative. It should be noted that the 1985 analysis assemed that a loop seal was n pmsect on the charge side of the PORVs.

The analysis that was recently perfonr.ed for the Engmecring Evaluation to demonstra operability (ABB Impell Prcject 0014-000e4) included that effect of a loop seal at the PORVs and utlized an opening stroke time fer the two-valve case of 500 ms (0 . This value is consistent with the EPRI tett data for the Copes-Vulcan PORVs (Re The current analysis (ABB Impell Project 00144X)073) which removes the loop daimag also uses an opening stroke urns of 0.50 second:. Based on current inforTnation received from Copes-Vulcan (Reference 2), Copes-V advised PSE&G that the valve has a " quick-opemng charactenstic," i.e.,90% open the stem travel. I' ting an opemag time in the range of appmximazdy 0.25 seconds to 2 seconds does n sigmficantly affect the rnagnimde est the !oads developed.

A88 Impedi Corporation r Mr. Dilip Bhavnaal i Scalor Staff Engineer Public Service Electric and Gas Corppany , January 15,1993 0014 00073 414  ; Page Two  : If *.he vahe opening tune is 2 seconds, which was discussed at previous project meetngs is correc, the use of a 0.5 second fully opened condition is reasonable (i.e.,0.3 X 2 seconds = 0.6 seconds). If the valve opening ume is ' second due to mod 1Destions that may have taken place to the diaphragm then the opening nme would be on the order of 0.3 seconds which will still not dgnificantly imroct the magnitude of the loads developed. Based on the current information and EPRI test data, ABB 1mpell believes (nat a value of 0.5 seconds for tne PORVs is a reasonable and justifiable value for the currem vajve configuranon.

valve manufacturer indicates that valve has quick opening . characteristic i.e. 90% open at 30% of stem travel. In t addition, utilizing an opening time of 0.25 to 2'secondr does  ; not significantly affect the magnitude of loads developed.

SUBJECT:

PORV/PSV LOOP SEAL DRAINING DCP DATE: January 26,1993 I With reference to yourletter MEC 931025 dated January 21,1993 there are several items which should be included in the scope of DCP.  ; 4

1. 1PS22 was found to be excessively leaking last outage. 2PS22 was changed out to Yarway FA 130.1PS22 also needs to be changed out to Yarway FA 130 from Rockwell FA 14.
2. Several Pressurizer Safety Valve Loop Seal drain valves (1/2 PR 8,9,10, 23) are Rockwell FA 14 valves. These valves have generic problem of stem  ;
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       +

detaching from the plug. These FA 14 valves need to be replaced by FA 130.

3. Several of the existing drain valves (1/2 PR 8,9,10, 23) have their reach rods disconnected outside the PZR enclosure. Either the reach rods should be made operable or removed from the field.
4. Removal of PZR Safety Valve Loop Sealinsulation box should be delayed until i Salem has had some experience with drained loop seal. Salem would like to retain capability to return to loop sealif PZR Safety Valves have serious leakage problems. A loop seal without insulation would be considered cold loop seal with much higher forcing function. Therefore, retaining the insulation 1 box would allow to return to hot loop seal with lower forcing function.
5. Drain line connection to PZR could be provided downstrecm of 1/2 PS22.

Existing PZR liquid space sample could be connected to thermowell in the , bottom of pressurizer. This will require modification of the thermowell. e CL/gb c: D. Bhavnani M 4.Danak Wiedemann , 1

DATEt 6 February 1993- . I^ , In January 1993, we provided comment concerning the . design change proposal on the PORV Loop Seal removal. While' the conceptual design of routing these loop seal drains back to-the Pressurizer appears to be the proper method of j addressing the stress loads on the piping, there are a few issues to resolve before pursuing this solution. These issues  ! are listed below 1.-How will safety valve leakage be minimized during rormal operation, since the original purpose of the , i loop seal was to minimize' leakage?

2. What steps have been taken to preclude the buildup of boron in this drain line? ,
3. The medification can only be performed in Mode 6 with the Paactor Head removed or Defueled. How is this  :

i goir,q to fit into the outage schedule?

4. What will be the impact on RCS leakage with the  ;

potential additional safety valve leakage to the PRT? l' If the identified leakage to the PRT increases to greater than 5.0 gpm, what will be the impact on the i. liquid radioactive waste volume and curie count?

5. Will-the project pick up the additional cost of processing any additional water waste from the safety
                  - and relief valves as a guarantee of their work?

Your: assistance in making sure that these issues are addressed' prior to acceptance of the design change will help . expedite the package through SORC. If you have any further  ! questions concerning these issues, contact me as soon as. -- possible.- , (RA-i

8 lEF DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM i This was a working enesting in pr oper ation of a rnesting with the NRC on 3-3-g3. The NAC wants highly susceptable plants in the US to initiate inspections. It is based on ' e new approach whete actions are vnitiated by industry without teguistory actions by the NRC. While this approach may have its advantages because initiotive stays with  ; industry, however, disadvantage could be unnecessary requirements which could be im-posed by the NRC without t h e i r m e n a l, <tme n t opproval. Also industry may have problems it implementing letge cost items wethout regulatory teaultements. NUMARC is trying to plo-cote the NRC so that it does not issue e generic letter or bulletin requiring all plants to do inspections. Colem et has to be concerned about future inspections. t

WOG, EPRI made presentations on various segments or program. WOG inforreed the group i that one circumfetential crack has been reported by EDF. This is very significant since all stress emelysis so for in Europe indicate no circumferential cracking would occut, lastead all crackeng will te amiel. A safety evaluation submitted to the NRC wili need to be tevised, The f,RC me11 force inspections with this unfortunate finding. NUMARC & 400 eent all Category 3 plants to voluntarily inspect their teettor head  ; during late 1993 and 1994 Setem #1 is e Category 3 plant and cannot inspect during r R11 (Fell '93) since planning for the outage is nest completion. Setem #1 con perfori anspections during 1R12 ef management opproves and the NRC sccepts acceptance criterie and the industry develops the technology adequately. Salem management should not agree to inspection if the above ley parameters are not complete. There is a good possibility ) thet by 1R12, the NRC would have opcided that a problem does not exist in US plants based on inspections et other plants dureng 1993 and 1994 Susceptability inden work by 400 does not consider key factors such as fabrication metnods, elding history & microstructure. Present indau is not a true indication of s eist of PASCC, DC Cook Unit 1 & 2 and a few other plants are prepared to proceed for enspections in 1993/1994., 400 timelene was revised to require NRC acceptance of industry ecceptance criterie before inspections would begin. The meetsng resolved thet the NRC would not be provided with names of any plants and their categories. Generally absolute value for renteng has been revised downwards from previous draft. , Tne CJO presented meterial on outside flows. WOG is nitiating a test program to determine crack growth reise bounding all plants. Additional funding is being i sought and the results would'not be sveilable until the end of 1994. A Ituttutet sub group has reviewed *00-work and finds it acceptable to present it to the NRC,

This job is not being proposed cecause of any safety considerations per WOG. NRC Assoseate Director. Bill Allen. congtstulated industry for toking a proactive patosch on this issue. However. he was very forceful and indicated displessire on industry fall owners groups) not submstting a position in short term why industry can continue to operate until inspections are done, Present WOG safety evaluation , has been submitted to the NRC, ehach concludes that up to 6 years plants are in compliance with ASME code with expected teakege in CROM penetration above weld. WOG took a very narrow and indenfensible oppfosch. Most plants are on 18-24 months refuel-ing cycle. Once a plant finds e reek during refueling or shutdoen, it cannot start until leek 4 ropeared since this mould be considered a pressure coundary leekage under Tech. Spets.

Salem also performs a formel reactor head inspection on every shutdown which is quite frequent, it is bad from operational reliab:lity but is considered positive from reactor head inspection frecuency.

purpose of the loop ual u as to msn.'rnlu leakaget' ABB Impell recommended draining cf the Pressurtar Safety Valve loop mais based upon uveriences at other nuclear p' ants with sicitar piping eeneerts and staular safety valv*s. Salem's Prueuriser Safety Valm were manufactured by Cresby Valve and Gege Ocupany. Ornby was contacted to dinuas drmning of the protacave water loop seals and any recommended modiflesmans to the safety valves. The erfsting safety valve design has required a water loop seal to protect the saatics of the valvea from steam cutting and non condenemle gases. Crosby has sabeequently douleped a design of the meernals (P'ad. Dine design)(or their safety valves that do not require a water loop seal. N tasse modificacion twolves replacement of the nosale and disc anurt and macnining of the exietics disc ring. The above modifications will take place at Wyle labs under the direction of a Craby npresentative. OVyle Labs has previously nAirtished and tasted the SVs for Salem I'nita 3 and 2 durug past eutages.) Following the modecadons, the SVs will be tuted fer !caksge and set point to the same nquirements o(the past testing. The SVs wi]l function as in:nally dulgned, e.= cept without the requirement for a loop seal. Copu Vulcan, the vendor of the PORVs, was also costaeted to addnse the nmov.sl of the lxp seals. Copes Vulcan roepastded with reecmroendations ta enhance the maling af the PORVs. Copes Valcan recommended 420 stainlus steelint4 mal trim set finished and tested in a 'siave body". N PORVs are butt welded into the system piping and thus, cannot be nir.oved.

2. 'What stepe have been taken to preclude the busldup of boron in this drain line!"

There will be no build up of boron in the new drain line. First, there is no ersporation taking place in the drain hne to concentrate the baron. Second, during operation, there will exist a continuous flow of" clean' eendensed water in the drain line, essentially continuously purgmg it of any boren which entered it dursar startuvrefueling. Thirdly, the drain line wiD be insulated. Also for comparison, the F8' pressunser liquid space ssapling tubing, which is not maulated or heat traced in containment, has not had problems due to boron solldl8eation. 3.

SUBJECT:

PCS DFAINDOWN WITHOUT REFUELING RVLIS INDICATION For RCS drain down +1 ring 2R7 after off-loading fuel from the reactor,it is u.derstood that the REFUELING RVLIS indication in the control room is not available.With the core completely otf-loaded to the spent fuel pool, core cooling concerns et NRC Generic Letter 38-17 and INPO SOERs do not apply.With appropriate measures in place to prevent loss or the RHR puroc ,enile in mid-loop,an unnecessary failure of catety equipment (RHR PUMPS) can be avoided.The following precaut:anc snould be taken: 1.The prescurl:er ;old level channel chould be compared to the intermediate (23RC15) leg tygon tubing.If discrepancy is greater than , anches,the tygon tubing ccale reference level chould be verified.Although an initial call to System Engineer is appropriate, the E&PB Civil group support for chooting a level from a reference level outside the biochield area may be necessary. Outage management should alett E&PB Single Point Contact for off-hour coverage. 2.The pressuricor cold level channel vill provide coverage to approx. 104' elevation.from 10 elevation to 99.1' elevation,;nter..ediate leg tygon Jbing local leVol indication anall te recorded evet, hour in the draindown procedure.from elevation 99.1'to 97.5', redundant mid-loop level indication in the control room are still available.Further draini.ng if required, may be accomplished by gravity drain from 23RC14 with RHR pumps tagged. Note that the mid-loop low res level alarm at 97.5' elevation may be utilized in addition to the redundant mid-loop level indication availabic in control room.Mid-loop level indication shall be calibreted !AW applicable procedures.

3. Admir.isrativa actions such as a Supervisory Letter, Management awareness training session and fornal training of licensed operators is not necessary since the reactor is nefueled.However, a shift briefing on the revised procedure is recommended. containment coordinators should review Attachment 2 of this procedure with the USS overy shift to prevent unauthorized activities which could result in loss of RCS inventory or loss of RHR pumps 4.When Tygon tubing is the only available RCS indication (from 104' to 99.1' elevation ) local level monitoring REV1 inside the bioshield by an operator overy hour, with direct communication to contral room, shall be provided.

If communication with the control room is lost or malfunctions, the drain down shall be immediately suspended. 5.The tygon tubing installation shall be walked down by the System Engineer and Nuclear Shift Supervisor, 11 Db discrqpancy areu. fir than 9" are recorded. 6.To ensure RCS Jraindown activities are carried out IAW with wr itten instructions,a TEMPORARY procedure with appropriate instructions is recommended. 7.A review of the NRC Ceneric Letter 88-17 and PSE&G responses has been conducted.Dasically, GL 88-17 requirements apply to reduced inventory operations with fuel in the reactor.The GL 88-17 requires two independent level indications in the control room while in reduced inventory operations.The NRC does not approca of Tygon tubing as level indication and states in the GL 88-17 "We also note that ordinary plastic tubing doen not meet our concept of reliable instrumentation, and its use may not be accepted as a component in instrumentation system". Since we are defueled, above concern does not apply. In this evolution, loss of shutdown cooling is not a concern, but protection of the RHR equipment is essential.

Dear Mr. Sicari:

REACTOR COOLANT PUMP SEAL INJECTION FLOW Salem is evaluating the need for a Technical Specification (TS)

                                 ~

change pertaining to Controlled Leakage. Currently Controlled Leakage is dafined as that seal water flow from the reactor coolant pump seals and is limited to 40 gpm with Reactor Coolant System (RCS) pressure at 2230 2 20 psig per LCO 3.4.6.2 (Unit 1) and 3.4.7.2 (Unit 2). Salem Station measures number one seal leakof f to -omply with the '?S. The bases for the specification states that it is to ensure that in the event of a LOCA, the safety injection flow will not be less than that ascumed in the Accident Analyses. As you are aware, seal return is an accurate indicator of the safety injection inventory that would not enter the RCS on a LOCA; however, it is net indicative of the total flow that would be delivered to the seals. For this reason PSE&G is requesting the following informetion:

1. What is the specific basus for the 40 gpm criteria for controlled Leakage, (e.g., charging pump runout, flow not delivered to the core via Cold Leg Ir.jection, flow diverted from the RCS, etc.)?
2. Does Salem meet the assumptions of the Accident Analyses by measuring seal leakoff flow?
3. If number one seal leakoff flow is the correct parameter to be measured, what limiting value should be used; the 20 gpm given in the vendor's manual or the 40 gpm e currently used?

4. If Salem does not meet the assumptions of the Accident Analyses, what affacts does this have on the analyses including assescaent of available margins?

Your response to the above quactions is necessary to ensure Salem  ; Stations are consistent with the Accident Analyses. Please ' contact Steve Mannon (609-339-1129) if you have any questions on the above. , Sincerely, *

SUBJECT:

4.0.5 P-CS.11

REFERENCE:

TEST DATED 6/2/93 The purpose of this memo is t) revise the existing baseline dated 6/26/91 for 11 CS pump, based on rev' s 01 the test data during last 2 years. Review of the trended test data clearly indicates that the scatter of test data is too close to the high alert line (1.02x). This basically is a problem with the Code (Table IWP-3100-2 of ASME Section X1). The Code allows lower side acceptable range of 71 but only 21 for higher side. The acceptable range is (0.93-1.02)x D.P.(reference). The Code reflects the basic presumption that pumps do degrade but do not improve over time. However, the Code did not tako into account the readability error of the operator, specifically when the pressure gauge needle may be fluctuating bi approximately 5 psig. This fluctuation and operato1.- readability errors may be responsible for putting 11CS pump in alert range in the past. - To correct this situation, it is recommended to change existing baseline table with new baseline prepared from test dated 6/2/93. This would minimize higher value alert while also avoiding thu lower range alert as well. Please centact me if any additional information is required. CL/gb cc: R. Gallaher P. O'Donnell J.

O y. TO: K. Piko Manager - Salem Technical (Acting) FROM: C. Lashkari System Engincor Salom Technical SUCJECT: CRDM PENETRATION CRACKING ISSUE DATE: July 7.1993 This momo presents curront status of CRDM Ponotration Cracking issue. O&M Funding is required for planning and implomonting a multi year and a multi discipline action plan that encompasses reactor head inspection and repair technology for both Units. My memo dated March 11.1993 briofod the status of tho issue as presented to the NRC on Maich 3,1993 by NUMARK ADHOC Advisory Committoo on Alloy 600 (AHAC 600) group. Notes from the NRC mooting on July 15,1993 are being circulated separately. During this mooting, WOG presented to the NRC acceptanco critoria for axial and circumferential cracking in CRDM tubos. Acceptanco of this ':ritoria is ossential for inspections to begin and is expected by the and of 1993. Listou below are different olomonts of our acticn plan and proposed responsibility assignments.

1. Salign 1 Insnection On March 3,1993, NUMARK modo a presentation to the NRC when 3 U.S. plants (D.C. Cook-2. Point Beach 1 and Oconoo) committed to inspections during 1994. WOG had classified all oporating Westinghouso plants based on operating timo and RCS temperaturo. A Relative Susceptibility index (RSI) was calculated which comparos U.S. plants to Ringhals 2. The susceptibility index for Salem 1 indicates a potential for Alloy 600 cracking based on comparison to Ringhals 2 operating history. Salem 2 is relatively Ic.w on RSI and therefore will need inspection based on Unit 1 results. Salom 1 was found to be in the samo category ar. DC Cook 2, Point Beach 1 and Trojan. Although Salem 1 has not made a specific commitment to the NRC, Salem 1 is planning inspection during 1R12 as a planned and prudent action. The inspection is anticipated to be performed through the ISI Group. The Toch. Dept, and E&PB will be responsible for selecting the NDE method and vendor.

2. NDE Techniques f

EPRI is developing various NDE' techniques at the NDE conter. Thc mockups will be complete by the end of the year. Demonstration and qualification of operators / vendors will be carried out to meet the - - inspection echedule in 1994. A vandor will need to be selected to j support 1R12 inspection requirements. RESPONSIBill1Y Salem ISI/ Salem Technical /E&PB 1

3. REPAIRS /VSE AS IS A NSSS vendor from West? .1 house, CE or B&W needs to be selected for carrys.'q out a USE AS-IS safety evaluation or repairs to CRDM tubes, if required. All tooling and techniques need to be evaluated on EPRl/NSSS mockup as a contingency. The piesent acceptance criteria does include a use as is criteria that will allow repair at a later date.  ;

RESPONSIBILITY Salem Technical

4. YlQEQ RECORD OF RX HEAD _ UNDERSIDE A video recording of Rx Head underside is proposed which will be useful as planning tool prior to 1R12. This recording can be n.ade by Brooks Associates for approximately $40,000 during 1R11 with approximate dose of 100 MR. The job can be completed in one shift and requires approximately 1 more shift of prep ~ation time inside containment. ,

it should be noted that this video recording has no potential to detect any defect which could delay the outage. Out Of Budget funding is needed so that this activity can be carried out during 1R11. Work Order

                                         #930702183 has been initiated.

S. MITIGATION TECHNIQUES The following 3 options are presently _WOG and EPRI recommendations. _ Additional- options may develop as technology and industry data increases . .The final selection at Salem will be dependant on life extension efforts, outage impact, technical feasibility and economic impact, No action is anticipated until after 1R11.  ;

                                                                                                                                                                         )

                                           'A,     Rx Head T Cold Conversion-WOG has recommended modifications internal to the reactor which c-                                                  could increase leakage flow. This increased flow to the Rx Head is_ expected to reduce the Rx Head temperature, thus decreasing the potential for CRDM cracking.

t B. Zinc Addition WOG and EPRI have reco,:. mended Zine addition to the RCS which will reduce the potential to cracking in the Alloy 600 CRDM tubes - while generally lowering the radiation fields around RCS piping and components. This would reduce the outage dose while reducing

  • the potential to cracking in Alloy 600 CRDM tubes. This

, modification will not be available until 1995 and therefore, will be implemented during 1R13 and 2R9, if considered effective and safe. Since WOG general meeting did not approve this item, a sub group of approximately 15 plants has been foi. >3d to continue to fund the research. PSE&G is participating in this effort. C. Shot Peenina CRDM Tubes - WOG and EPRI have recommended shot poening the CRDM tubes. This project is similar to shot peening the S.G. alloy 600 tubes which is being carried out during 1R11. Shot poening does not help with existing crack initiation. However, it will prevent further crack growth by removing residual stresses at the crack tip.

6. RECURRING PM TASK After initialinspections are complets on both Salem Jnits, RTs will have to be created to carry out this inspection approximately every 10 years along with- 10 years ISI of RV. This will depend upon WOG recommendations.

SUMMARY

/ CONCLUSIONS CRDM Alicy 600 defect acceptance criteria is expected to be approved by the NRC by the end of 1993.

Inspection will be required on U/1 based or$ similer history to Rinhals-2. Salem U/2 may be required later based on U!1 results.

 +e b                                                               .

An inspection technique will need to be selected and scheduled for 1R12. Itis expected to involve robotics to minimize doso. Repair techriology is under development. Proventivo options are under develop nont. O&M budget allocations for insg9etioni anatyeis and repair will be needed for support of 1R12.

Review of DCP 1EC-3249 Haplac4 ment of PS 1&3-Internals DATE: July 22,1993 A review of DCP 1EC-3249 indicates a potential nuclear safety concern regarding safety Injection during the special test per DCP Section 10.3.4.1 used to determine pressurizer spray valve capacity.This capacity should be determined either by calculation or test by the vendor.The test does not predict the valve flow capacity nor does it provide adequate acceptance criteria. My concerns are:

1. Increased-probability of Safety Injection during the test as a result.of rapid RCS cooldown.
2. The test does not determine the capacity of the valve quantitatively.
3. The special test in the DCP is a test or experiment not described in the SAR. However, safety evaluation per 10 CFR 50.59 does not address the test.If this special test needs to be run, then safety evaluation should be-revised.

In addition, the package is deficient with respect to CDs on changes to the Maintenance Department Procedure SC.MD-CM.RC-0002(Q) and CBD. Marked-up changes should be provided in the DCP. C: K Pike J Wiedemann / k

WOG MATERIALS SUBCOMMITTEE TRIP REPORT-DATE: August 17,-1993 I attended the-August /10-11, 1993 WOG Materials Subcommittee . Meeting held in Pittsburgh, PA. The meeting was chaired by Sid Butler of Southern' Nuclear. Highlights of the meeting are listed below.. REACTOR VESSEL CLOSURE HEAD-PENETRATION ALLOY 600 PWSCC PROJECT. This WOG project is being conducted as a result of Alloy 600 penetration leakage in an EdF PWR, Inspections indicated the presence of axial cracks on.the inside diameter of the .illoy 600 tube. Cracks extended above and below the' head attachment veld. The EdF leakage nas been attributed to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC). Inspections at other EdF plants

            ! revealed the presence of_ cracking in additional penetrations.                                                (

Phase 1 of the WOG project confirmed PWSCC as the cause of the

                                                       ~

cracking, and concluded that Westinghouse vessels may be susceptible to head-penetration PWSCC. _As part of Phase-II, a 10CFR50.59 safety evaluation for operation with_ cracked penetrations was completed. Also, a technical basis was developed forLa susceptibility screening methodology. The 4 current phase of the' project includes the-assessment of an outside diameter crack.that has been found-in an EdF reactor, the continued support for developing:an industry strategy, the

performance cf additional microstructural assessments, and the continuation of crack. growth tests. The preliminary results of the in-progress crack-growth tests is that_the growth rate is similar to the rates found:in earlier testing-for-Alloy 600-steam generatorLtubing. The_NRC is reviewing the technical basAs of
             -flaw = acceptance criteria ~for flaws _that may be found in U.S.

plants.- In addition, a proposed WOG project authorization for

             -developing a-cost-effective management strategy _ relative to potential repairs and mitigation actions.is under review.

i [ J. Bailoy 2 08/17/93 PROJECT AUTHORIZATION FOR NEW FATIGUE TEST DATA. A project authorization for a program to develop new fatigue test data was considered. The S-N fatigue curves for carbon and low alloy steels defined in ASME Section III were based on laboratory tests performed in air many years ago, while the_-_ curves for austenitic steels-include more data in the area of high cycle fatigue. The da/dN-fatigue crack growth curves in Section XI were based on data from more current work, but today there are improved analytical methods and a better appreciation of the effects of variables. In some cases, da/dN data exceed the Section XI curves. As a result, the NRC has been considering the appropriatoness of the fatigue curves in Sections-III and XI. Another concern is whether or not the ASME approaches described in the respective sections reflect the environmental effects on fatigun behavior. After extensive discussion, a project authorization for a reduced program in the amounc of $25,100 was approved. LOW UPPER SHELF ENERGY LEVELS. A WOG project is underway to assess upper shelf toughness for prussure vessels in Westinghouse plants. A draft report, WCAP 13587 " Reactor Vessel Upper Shelf Energy Bounding Evaluation for Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactors", is in the process of being completed. SURVEILLANCE CAPSULE FLUENCE PROJECT. Since the early 1970s, a large number of Westinghouse pressure vessel surveillance capsules have been examined, with fluence values determined for each capsule. A WOG project is being conducted to reevaluate fluence values that have been reported during capsule examinations. This is being done using improved techniques for determining fluences that are now available. It is important that fluences be known as accurately as possible since the NRC uses this information as part of the input for establishing trend curves incorporated into regulatory guides. It is expected that this project will be completed by the end of 1994. REACTOR VESSEL ANNEALING. A project authorization for an annealing demonstration project was presented. The purpose for annealing a reactor pressure vessel is to remove neutron embrittlement that occuru during plant operation. Although many Russian reactor vessels have been annealed, no U.S. vessels have yet been annealed. An economic analysis has been performed to evaluate the cost benefit of vessel annealing. Westinghouse believes that development of an annealing option would allow some PWRs to save significant money in the course of operating until the end of the 40-year license period. In addition, annealing may be necessary for some plants in order to go beyond 40 years into a license' renewal period. A proposed project authorization is expected to be faxed to subcommittes' members later this month. Please contact me at X1655 if you have any questions or would liku additional information.

Salem 1 Mode 6 Pressure Relief at Greater Than 0.3 PSIG Procedure S1'.OP-SO.CBV-0002(Q) requires System Engineering evaluation at containment pressures between +1.0 PSIG and +3.0 PSIG. This memorandum provides guidance on this subject. Please install a hand-sender un IVC 5. While IVC 6 is fully open, crack open-1VCS to establish airflow from containment. This will slowly reduce the containment pressure yet ensure the pressure relief system components are not damaged. When containment pressure is reduced to 0.3 PSIG, 1VCS may be fully opened. Contact system engineering when the pressure relief is complete, so that the system visual inspection may be completed in accordance with procedure step number 5.1.2.

REACTOR COOLANT PUMP SEAL INJECTION FI4W DATE: OCT 215G3 REF: h R-I93561 As requested by your department, Licensing has been investigating a change to the Technical Specifications which would redefine Controlled Leakage as seal water 12 the RCP's. To assist in the justification for this change, Licensing requested information f rom Westinghouse concerning the bases of the LCO, assessment of the accident analyses assumptions, and resolution of values to be used, (Re f. NLR-N9 3 08 5, attached). Westinghouse has verbally responded to our request by stating that it is their belief that the Contro11od Leakage should be measured to the RCP sesis rather than seal leak-off as currently stated. Westinghouse will be assessing the affect on the accident analyses based on recently acquired data and formally documenting their response. At this time, it appears unlikely that their response will be received prior to the end of the Unit 1 eleventh refueling outage. It is Licensing's opinion that this initial assessment could impact the manner in which the seal injection flows are set. If 40 gpm proves to be the naximum total seal injection flow allowable at normal operating pressure, (equating to 82 gpm accident flow used in Westinghouse analyses and cold Leg Injection Cl'w o testing), then the CV98 valves should ce adjusted such that Cinaximum of 10 gpm/ pump is all that can be achieved with the @ full open and no normal charging flow; the actual LOCA configuration during injection and that which was used in the analyses. Achieving the configuration when setting the RCP seal injection flows coming out of the outage would avoid the risks of adjusting flows during power operation should Westinghouse's finalized conclusion necessitate such en adjustment.

                                                                        %)

M. Morroni. 2 NLR-I93561 This-flow limitation might necessitate a change to-operating procedure S1(2).OP-SO.CVC-0001(Q), " Establishing, Charging,. Letdown, and Seal Injection," but other procedure changes, (surveillance, RCP cperation, and alarm response) would not require revision until approval of the_ proposed License Change Request to the Technical Specifications since they would still 4 bound the lower seal flows. 1 Since Westinghouse's conclusions are preliminary, adjustment of the Unit 2 RCP seal flows at this time is not warranted. However, should the opportunity arise such that Unit 2 enters a Mode when adjustments can be made with reduced risk, consideration for similar adjustments should be given.

             'FROM:            aC P Lashkari, Systom" Engineer SUBJ ECT:      4  POPS Setpoint impact on-PTS Concern DATE:             January 30, 1994-Vice President Stanley LaBruna required Salem. Generating Station to investigate possible. violation of Tech Spec on RCS Heatup-and cooldown at-Diablo Canyon 1/2 as reported in Industry Briefs Volume II, Number 29,( copy attached ).

An EWR was written to E&PB to evaluate this concern.

            - Additionally, Westinghouse identified in PSE-93-204 a                            .

Potential Issue (PI) regarding non-conservatism in the POPS setpoint development. The pressure difference from the vide range pressure transmitter to the reactor vesnel midplane . (where the Tech. Spec. heatup and cooldown pressure / temperature limits are defined) was not considered. In OE 5691, Comanche Peak SES ( 4-loop Westinghouse PWR) alsa reported that indicated wide range pressure could be lower than actual pressure at reactor vessel / core midplane elevation by approximately 50 psi.

                          ~

Based on above concerns, the NRC issued INFO NOTICE IN-93-56 which shows similar concern has been reported to the NRC by Byron', Zion, Diablo Canyon, Kewanee,Sqquoyah and Point Beach , Salem analysis provided by E&PB letter MEC-93-917 dated December 30,1993 confirmed that calculated pressure at core midplane would violate the Tech Spec Heatup & Cooldown curves. Cooldown Curve at 20 F/HR was considered'in determining the POPS setpoint. E&PB has takea credit for ASME Code Case:N514 which provides 10% margin over Appendix G of ASME Code. Appendix G is also the bases of-Tech Spec

            . heatup and cooldown curves. The Code Case is not approved

- by the NRC and its use to defend a Tech Spec violation is not allowed. Licensing Department needs to submit an emergency. revision-to the. Tech. Spec. on heatup and cooldown curves. If.. limitation-on number of reactor coolant pumps in

            -operation during-POPS applicability temperature range                             >

Your Pace Idea regarding improvements in the process of repairs to the  ; CRDM ventilation fans was reviewed within Salem Technical Department using standards and guidelines for such processing. The suggested idea is already covered by the present action plan for these fans based on past job , review and continuous improvemc its in the efficient use of the Salem Station resources. This is evidenen Sy the action plan provided to the Outage Manager on or about August 13. This was before System Er ;ineer became aware of your Pace Idea. Pace ideas must involve innovation, original and unique thinking in l suggesting improvements over and above what is expected by the company in our normal duties as good employees. A questioning attitude aoout past ,

        -jobs and practices is e: sected from all good employees as a normal management function.

Processing of Pace Ideas must be handled professionally, judiciously and _ anonymously. Your efforts are appreciated by the program ' If you are not - E satisfied by the disposition, appropriate procedures are available for appeal to the higher management if you so desire. A dispositioned idea can not be

        -reopened but a new idea can be submitted if any additional information is to be added to the original Pace Idea.

SUBJECT:

- PORV POSITION INDICATION REF: NLR-I94239 DATEt. May 24,.1994-

        'This. memo documents the result of our meeting on May 19, 1994, and my conversation with Mr'. Jim Stone (NRC Project Manager) regarding the PORVs position le31 cation and the requirements of Generic Letter (GL) 90-06.

As previously discussed, GL_90-06 recommended the PORVs not be cycled in Modes 1 and 2. However, the GL does not unilaterally grant relief from the requirements of Technical Specifications (T/S); it is up'to the licensees to identify and request the appropriate T/S changes. PSE&G submitted its final GL 90-06 application to the NRC on December 8, 1993, and NRC approved the request on April 7, 1994 (Amendment 150/130) with an implementation date of June 4, 1964. However, our submittal failed to recognize that Channel Functional Chr ck (CFC) of Table 4.3-11 needed to be changed. This CFC is-tequired every 92 days and verifies circuitry continuity through the open and close limit switches. This-surveillance has been historically performed by cycling the PORVs through one full cycle. Consequently, the CFC for the PORVs position indication as established by Table.4.3-11 nust be conducted at the required frequency to remain in compliance with the T/S requirements. At'your request, Licensing pursued a technical specification

        -interpretation of this . issued with our NRC project manager.
                                                                                                               )

                                                                          ~

          ' J. Wiedemann
           ' NLR-I94239 The result of the discussion between Licensing, and our NRC project manager is presented below;-
                  -(A) The NRC.(NRR)_will not be pleased: knowing that the PORVs are to be cycled-in-Modes 1 or 2; however, they recognize that a T/S surveillance' requirement must be complied with, and failure to do so will. result in a T/S violation.

In conclusion, GL 90-06 does not prohibit the cycling of the PORVs at power in order to satisfy the requirements of Table 4.3-11 of T/S 3.3.3.7. The required CFC must be performed within the required frequency to avoid a possible T/s violation. ' Note

           -that cycling of the PORVs may not be the only appropriate means of complying with the surveillance requirement. Licensing is presently developing a license change request to modify Table 4.3-11 in crder to avoid having to cycle the PORVs in Modes 1 and 2.

Should you have any questions regarding this memo, please do not hesitate to call me at ext. 5429. EHV/ CC F.- Thomson, Jr. J. Morrison P.-O'Donnell P. Ott D.-Smith file-1.4.1 l l l-o

FROht: C P LASIIKARI, SYSTEhi ENGINEER SUBJECT. MISSED SURVEILLANCE TABLE 4.311 ITEM 12 DATE: JUNE 2.1994 BASED ON REVEW OF AVAILABLE PROCEDURES FOR STROKING TIE PRI&2 AND DOCUMENTING THE SURVEILLANCE FOR CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL EVERY QUARTER PER TECH SPEC TABLE 4.3-11 ITEM 12 ON BOTH SALEM UNITS 1&2 IT CAN BE DEFINITELY CONCLUDED THAT THIS SURVEILLANCE HAS BEEN MISSED MORE THAN ONCE ON EACH UNIT. TIE ROOT CAUSE IS IMPLEhfENTATION OF NRC GENEPJC LETTER 90-06. THIS GENERIC LETTER REQUIRED IMPLEhiENTATION OF NRC POSITION ON XOT STROKING TIE PORVs IN MODES l&2. THIS WAS BfPLEhENTED BY SALEM AS OF JANUARY 1,1991, JUST AS REQUIRED BY GENERIC LETTER. TIE PROCEDURE CHANGE REQUIRED OPERATING ENGINEER / OPS MANAGEF. PERA11SSION FOR STROKING PORVs IN MODES 1&2. THERE WERE SEVERAL TIMES WIEN TECHNICAL DEPAR5fENT REQUESTED STROKING THE PORVs TO VERIFY RELI ABILITY OF VARIOUS DIAPHRAGM MATERIAL IN PORV AIR ACTUATOR. ADDITIONAL STROKING ARE RELATED TO DCP OR POST-MAINTENANCE TESTING. PER APPLICABLE PROCEDURE AT VARIOUS TmiES DURING LAST 3 YEARS TIE STROKING OF PORVs WAS MARKED NOT-APPLICABLE BECAUSE PLANT WAS IN MOOF 1 OR 2. THE OPERATING SHIFT WERE IN COMPLIANCE WITH TIE PROCECURE AND NRC GENERIC LETTER. WHAT WAS NOT REALIZED BY VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS IN SALEM STATION THAT STROKING OF PORVs WAS ALSO NEEDED TO COMPLY WITH ANOTHER TECH SPEC ON POSITION INDICATION PER TABLE 4.3-11 ITEM 12. THIS CONFLICT WAS ALSO NOT REALIZED BY LICENSING AND VARIOUS REVEWERS OF THE LCR (AND VARIOUS REVISIONS ) SU3MITTED IN RESPONSE TO GENERIC LETTER 90-06. IT ALSO WAS NEVER PICKED UP BY TECH SPEC ADMINISTRATOR IN REVIEWING THE LCRs AND PROCEDURE REVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO TECH SPEC M/2tlX MAINTAINED BY HIM. THE ROOT CAUSE AS STATED EARLER IS AMENCE OF TECH SPEC REFERENCE AND INADEQUATE PURPOSE IN PROCEDURES IN EFFECT IN 1990 TBE FRAME. PERFORMANCE OF STROKING OF PORVs & TIMING, MET THE POSITION INDICATION SURVEILLANCE IN MIND BUT NOT ON PAPER. THIS ABSENCE OF DOCUNENTATION LED TO THE MISSING OF OBVIOUS CONFLICT IN TECH SPECS BY VARIOUS PERSONNEL IN THEIR REVIEW OF LCR FOR y GENERIC LETTER 90 06. 4

SALEM GENERATING STATION SALEM TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT ENGINEERING MEMO: 94 103 TO: P J Ott, Operating Engineer Salem Operations Department FROM: C P Lashkan, system Engineer Salem Technical Depanment

SUBJECT:

CRDM Ventii. - n On Salem 1& 2 DATE: June 10,1994 Salem Operations Dept. Procedure Sl/S2.OP-AR.ZZ-00ll(Q) alarm respon3e to ber.el alann for high temperature at the fan outlet requires consideration of Unit shutdown by NSS/SNSS if temperamres can not be lowered. This Engineering Memo documents why Unit need not be shutdown. He procedure will be revised reflecting the Engineering position on this subject. During the week of June 10,1994 CRDM Ventilation on Salem Unit I was exhibiting high ambient temperature on the outlet of the motor / fan units. Although bezel alann ( temperature setpoint >l50F) was lit on 14 CRDM fan only, P-250 computer readings were as follows: FAN AMPS FAN EXIT TEMP 11 45 FAILED T/C 12 61 157.7F 13 59 162.2F 14 64 161.5F 4

In addition on Unit 2,23 CRDhi fan is clear & tagged for maintenance. All 3 CRDhi vent, fan bezel alanns (setpoint= 150F) are lit although P-250 (setpoint = 160F) temperatures are not in alarm yet. This Engineering hiemo presents short term and long tenn actions which need to be taken to address OPS concem on CRDhi cooling. SIIORT TERhi REC 05151ENDATIONS

1. There is no operability concern at the present time for the Salem Unit 1/2 with the recorded temperature of approx.162F.

Three motors on Unitl and all motors in Unit 2 are from Reliance Electric with insulation class IL The 13 CRDht fan motor is a Westinghouse motor with insulation class F. The motor insulation or both types of motors can withstand temperatures greater than 200F. Ilowever, the motor bearings are limited to 220 to 240F. The bearing temperature is expected to reach these temperatures if ambient air (ctoH wtr) temperature is 170F. This temperature limit is because of thennal expansion of the bearing races and the loss of oil viscosity ( the ability to lubricate the bearing surfaces)per memo from Reliance Electrie. The CRDhi magneticjack assemblics would start experiencing reduced life at temperature in excess of 392F. This temperature relates to the fan exit temperature of 170F, The CRDhi coil stack is limite ' to 175F, Based on the above temperature restrictions, the maximum fan exit allowable temperature can be increased from 160F to 170F. i

2. Attached is data taken with AD-46, WO. 940613104 which shows that the system operates cooler with 3 CRDM vent. fans instead of 4. OPS Procedure St.OP-SO.CBV-0001(Q) requires operating with 2 CRDM vent. fans. 3rd fan could be started if temperatures exceed 150F. It is not recommended to put the 4th fan into service.

During the AD-46 and before,11 CRDM fan was found to be drawing 45 AMPS compared to the other 3 fans drawing 55-60 AMPS. When 3 fans were operating including 11 fan, all 3 fans including 11 fan were found to be drawing approximately equal current in the range of 55-60 AMPS. A procedure revision request for changing OPS Procedure Sl/2.OP-SO.CBV-0001(Q) will be submitted by the System Engineer by July 1 1994

 %g o%MM J0%& OF TV4 TD M YMuo N 61EU'6., TD CAR
3. System Engineering would like control room to record once every shift the CRDM v.mt im outlet temperatures for fans 1/S (indicate which fans are O/S) containment average temperatu e, and containment 136 fl el. temperature

( P 2<0 Pts 1044A or 1064A) for the months of July & August. System Engr wJ' b: ion to provide Station Management trending of the CRDM fans dunn s e.n 2 months. LONG TERM RECOMMENDATIONS

1. An inspection of RX head insulation was made on 6/14/94. The insulation was not inissing any pieces. It may have larger gaps than on Unit 2 or the insulation on Unit 1 is degraded compared to Unit 2. This may result in somewhat higher temperatures on Unit I compared to Unit 2. The insuhtion on Unit 1 is planned to be removed ca Unit! during IR12 for CRDM alloy 600 inspection. Any required corrective action will be taken at that time.
2. The bezel alarms should be repaired with the existing wom orders during next forced outage on Unit 1.
3. The bezel alarm setpoint at 150F should be changed to 170F in order to avoid unnecessary CR alarms. The CR operators can start the standby fan based on P-250/ Doric alann readings. The procedures will be revised to reflect this position. The P-250 and Doric alarm set points should be changed.fc.m l@*f to 170F based on Westinghouse letter on the coil stack and Reliance Electric letter on CRDM fan motor.

s 4' Westinghouse identified in letter PSE 93-204 dated March 15, 1993 (NSAL-93-005B) a potential non conservatism in the calculation of the pressurizer overpressure protection system (POPS) setpoint (375 Psig) that effects Salem Units _1 and 2. The pressure difference from tne wide range pressure transmitters (PT403 and PT405) which sense hot leg pressure to the reactor vessel midplane (where the Tech. Spec. heatup and cooldown pressure / temperature (P/T) 'imits are defined) was not considered in the Westinghouse analysis. The Tech. Spec. heatup and cooldown curves are determined in accordance with the requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix G and ensure reactor vessel integrity. The POPS protects the RCS from exceeding the Tech. Spec. limits by opening the PORVs during cold overpressure transients (RCS Temperature below 312

  • F) . The c.rrent heatup and cooldown curves (Tech. Spec. Figures 3.4-2 and 3.1-3) POPS limits are 450 and 475 psig for Salem Units 1 and 2, respectively. The Salem POPS analysis calculated a maximum peak pressure during an overpressure transient of 446 psig with the PCRV set at a pressure of 375 psig. Further analysis was required to show that the pressure difference _between the RCS hot leg and the midplane of the vessel plus the maximum calculated pressure (446 psig) did not exceed the Tech. Spec. P/T curves.

The results of this evaluation by engineering are provided ir. letter MEC-93-917 dated December 30, 1993 (Attached). In summary, the calculated maximum pressures ssuming 1 or 2 RCPs in operation compared to the Tech. Spec P'; curves are as folicws: Enti RCPs ir Service Max. Press. Tech. Spec. Limi! 1 2 485 450 1 1 477 450 2 2 485 475 2 1 477 475 Based on the above, when the non-conservatism is removed by adding the pressure difference calculated, the limits of both

was issued to evaluate this issue. As identified in MEC-93-917 additional margin on the Tech. Spec. curves can be gained when operating with POPS (RCS less than 312

  • F) by taking credit for ASME Code Case N514. This Code Case states that the LTOP systems shall limit the maximum pressure in the vessel to 110% of the pressure determined to satisfy Appendix
                                                                              ,Y l

 )i G of Section XI, Article G-2215. Crediting the Code Case will allow the maximum allowable plessure (Tech. Spec. P/T limits) for POPS to be increased to 495 psig and 522 psig for Salem Units 1 and 2,   espectively. However, utilization of the Code Case will require NRC approval prior to implementation. This Code Case has been relied upon by another utility under these circumstances.

Also, Procedure revisions that have been implemented to limit the number of RCPs in operation to 2 while in Mode 5 will ensure that the maximum pressure will not be exceeded when credit is taken for Code Case N514. As a prudent measure, Salem Operations Dept. is revising the relevant procedures to limit 1 RCP operating during Mode 5. Engineering is in the process of completing plant specific analysis of the POPS utilizing the RHR relief valves (RH3). Westinghouse WCAP 11640 allows plants to credit the RH3 valves for LTOP applications if the Autoclosure Interlocks for valves RH1 and RH2 tied to PT403 and 405 (> 375 psig) have been removed to crevent the inadvertent isolation of RH3. The These interlccks RH3 setpoint along nav'e been deleted from both Salem Units. with the valve capacity were generically evaluated by Westirgrouse to provide the Appendix G protection during low temrerature overpressurization events without relying solely on the PCRVs. Although the plant specific analysas for Salem 1 and

           ~

2 have not been completed at the present time, the results are expected to produce acceptable results that the present Tech. Spec. P/T limits would be satisfied assuming either i or 2 RCP(s) in Operat:On. These analyses do not credit Code Case N514. Eased on the above, reasonsble assurance exists that the current Tech. Spec. P/T limits would be met when considering the pressure difference between the midplane of the Reactor Vessel and the location of PT403 and 405. Therefore, it is judged that this issue :s not an immediate operability or safety concern. r However, Salem 1 and 2 are considered outside of their design basis per 10CFR50.72 (b) (1) (ii) for reporting purposes. i .

a SALEM PREDECisIONAL ENFORCEMENT CONFERENCE _ i  % _IR No. Date Discussion of Issues / Apparent Violations 94-32 3/30/94 The original POPS setpoint analysis (SER date 2/21/80) supported a 375 psig setpoint. A 3/15/93 Westinghouse 5 NSAL informed the lices.see of nonconservatisms in the setpoint methodology for POPS for low temperature overpressure transient conditions. After 9 months of analysis, the licensee concluded that the corrected peak Sect. transient pressure would exceed P/T limits (450 psig, 10 2.0 unit 1; and 475 psig, unit 2), i.e., 485 psig. On 12/3/93 the licensee dispositioned the matter by administratively limiting operation to 2 RCPs when less Sig, than 200* and increasing each unit's P/T limit by 10% Issue based on unapproved ASME coC case N-514 (10CFR50.60). I 15 Though the licer.see knew that the design bases was exceeded, the condition was not reported (10CFR5^ 72/73). In early January 1994, the licensee recognized tne inappropriateness of using an unapproved code case and subsequently elected to take credit for the capacity 20 provide by RHR system suction relief valve RH3 to augment POPS relief. The licensee's analysis indicated that with RH3 available, the transient peak pressure would remain below the App. G limits. The licensee took credit for, d but coatinued to analyze the ability of, RH3 until April 25 94, though no 50.59 evaluation or approval from NRC for TS amendment was initiated. in April 94, a DEF was generated which identified that RH3 was not credited in the POPS analysis or in the design bases. [ Note: For over a year, the licensee had failed to effect any 30 corrective action or come to any resolution of the POPS setpoint issue (10CFR50 App. B, Criterion XVI)]. Though the issue was finally entered in the DEF process, the fact that Salem was outside design bases was still not reporteo. To address im ediate safety concerns, 35 procedui: evision was ma ! to assure that only one RCP would be available in Mode 5 (to limit the dynamic head error affecting P/T limits), and efforts were taken to assure the availability of RH3 (though no TS amendment was initiated). [ Note: Throughout this period, the 40 licensee's effort was directed toward developing a rationale to support that the nonconservatism expressed in the NSAL did not apply to Salem.] In a final attempt, the licensee elected to change the bases upon which the original POPS analysis was founded by relying on 45 procedural controls to limit possible injection sources. By limiting magnitude of mass addition, and revising the limiting transient upon which the setpoint was based, the licensee was able to predict a peak transient of 438 psig (i.e., below the P/T limits) and therefore considered 50 that the existing POPS setpoints continued to be valid. However, as of 12/94 the change in the POPS design basis was not reviewed to determined if an USQ existed (10CFR50.59). G: SALEM.PEC 1

  • installed a design change to accommodate the results of their analysis of pressurizer safety valve performance concerns discussed in 0737, Item 5 Sect.. 11.D.1. The DCP involved system modifications to 4.4 remove the loop seals associated with 2PR3, 4, and 5 by establishing a drain system for the loop seals Sig. (with associated drain valves and header; and Issue change of the valve internals to materials designed 10 to operate in a steam only environment. Upon completion of the modification, the drain valves were added to the valve lineup scheme,. including the common isolation valve 2PR66 in the common drain header. The required lineup specified 2PR66 15 to be open, however the lineup was not accomplished. Further, no evidence could be determined that a post modification test had been accomplished relative to the DCP. Consequently, the 2PR66 remained closed causing water due to 20 condensation to remain within the loopseal throughout the operating cycle to 2R8 (October 1994). As a result, a safety related system existed in an unanalyzed configuration (10CFR50, App. B, Criterion V).

25 B. The following are issues involve 10CFR50 App. B, Criterion XVI. 8.1 On June 7, 1994, material management documentation 30 for limit switches associated with head vent valves erroneously identified the material as NSR. A DEF identified that a switch short circuit could render two head vent valves inop since they were powered Sect. from the same common circuit. However, the DEF did 35 4.5 not identify any operability or safety concerns based on the reviewers conclusion that, whether NSR Agg. or SR, the switches were the same and were issue differentiated only by test certification for the SR component. In February 1995, the licensee 40 determined that NSR switches were actually installed in the Unit 1 vent valves. However no safety evaluation or analysis was performed to demonstrate the acceptability of NSR parts installed in a SR application or the bases for

The licensee speculated that the low RCS temperature caused boric acid crystallization that Sect.                 prevented the valve from functioning.

The valve was issue                returned to service on July 10, 1994 with no further review, evaluation, or assessment iaw normal work control process procedures.

20 Consequently no actions were initiated to address maintenance, operability, corrective action issues, or generic implications. 25

An oil sample lab report dated 8/4/94 recommended 5 -4.3 resampling and changing oil on the 21 high-head SI Agg. pump due to significant increase in wear particle issue concentration. Sect. 2. An oil analysis dated 11/28/94 identified high wear 10 4.3 particle concentration in the 22 high head SI pump Agg. speed increaser oil. Issue In both these cases, the system engineer, though aware of the findings of the lab reports, did not initiate any 15 followup, evaluation, or corrective measure; or establish a bases for operability or reliability in view of the apparent degraded condition of the equipment. The degraded nature of the equipment was not entered into the Equipment Malfunction Identification System (EMIS) until 20 March 20, 1995. Sect. 3. A lab report, dated 10/6/94, recommended resampling 4.3 the 23 AFW turbine lube oil due to some small Agg. amount of water found and an increase in wear 25 issue particle concentration. The degraded nature of the equipment was not entered into the EMIS by the system engineer until 3/27/95. The system engineer did not initiate any review, evaluation, 30 or establish any basis for equipment operability or reliability. Sett. 4. In May 1994, a systems engineer initiated a work 4.3 request to inspect the 2Al 28 VDC battery charger 35 Agg. due to configuration concerns involving the ground Issue detection circuit. The work order to accomplish the task was not issued until April 1995. Sect. 5. LER 95-05 identified seven instances. between 40 4.3 5/8/90 and 1/14/95, of PSVs being beyond the 1% Agg. tolerance required by TS 4.0.5 for Unit 1. Four Issue instances were identified between 11/14/94 and 1/14/95 involved 2 or the 3 inctalled PSVs. In all instances, the vendor notified the appropriate 45 system engineer by telephone, with written followup reports. Notwithstanding, the responsible system engineer never initiated an Incident Report, and consequently, root cause, operability, and reportability actions were not accomplished. C: SALEM.PEC 4

Since 2/29/92, sevsral instances occurred involving i Cont. failure (cracks) of the threaded portion of the a pressure switch instrument pipe nipples associated Sect. with emergency diesel generator jack water cooling 5 6.1.B system. Previously, the failed component was merely rethreaded and/or replaced without any root Agg. cause ef fort being applied. On 6/7/95, the issue licensee finally determined that the cause was due to resonance frequency that could be treated nj 10 modification of the size and mounting of the pipe. Sect. 5. On 7/11/92, the 21RH10 (21 RHR pump discharge 6.1.A isolation valve) was observed to be " clanking." on 4/16/93 the valve was opened and inspected to 15 Agg. investigate the cause of the noise. Two deep wear issue marks were discovered on the disc, but engineering concluded that they did not affect operability of the valve since seat damage was not observed. The marks were buffed out; the valve reassembled, and 20 placed in service. On 6/10/95, the loud noise was once again observed. While insrection of the valve was planned, the 21 pump was not considered'to be affected even though the licensee had no basis to support the conclusion in view of the possibility 25 (as described by the SRI) that if the disk separated from the stem (due to whatever mechanism was causing the loud impact noises), RHR flow would be lost or restricted. Subsequently, the licensee performed a more thorough assessment and developed 30 a reasonable rationale (based on input from the valve vendor and a search of industry experience with the valve type) that support that separation

       ;                         of the disk from the stem was not a likely failure.

Subsequently, the licensee committed to examine the 35 valve and determine root cause once the system could be removed for service. G: SALEM.PEC 6
