Exit Interview (30703)

The inspection scope and findings were summarized on February 6, 1987,

with the general manager, vice president and manager engineering and

construction. Three violations (see paragraphs 6 and 7) were discussed in

detail. The licensee acknowledged the findings without exception.

The

licensee did not identify as proprietary any of the materials provided to

or reviewed by the inspectors during the inspection.

Followup on Previous Enforcement Matters (92702)

(OPEN)

Violation (324/86-12-01), Inadequate Acceptance Test 'in Valve

Operator Plant Modifications, response dated May 22, 1986. The inspector

reviewed documentation of training on this issue and verified that the

manual revision commitment in the response has been met.

However, a

related problem sas identified by the licensee during a review of the

results of 2MST "CI39R, High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) Initiation

Response Time Tes'

run on January 16, 1987. The test had been completed

satisfactorily,

b ever, a member of the maintenance staff questioned

whether the respon;e time of 2-E41-V8, HPCI turbine stop valve, was

correct.

The licensee assigned BESU an action item to research the

problem.

Plant modification 2-83-240, HPCI Turbine Stop Valve Limit Switch Replace-

ment (E41-C002-LS4), failed to adequately specify a test for the HPCI

system.

The limit switch provides the permissive to open the HPCI

injection valve, directly affecting the response time of the system. The

acceptance test only verified that V8 opened and closed and that the limit

switch functioned correctly. The affect on HPCI system response time was

not addressed. While the acceptance test was inadequate, the response

i

'

time was satisfactory based on the performance of the 2MST-HPCI39R on

January 16, 1987.

However, the modification had been declared operable

per memorandum dated March 28, 1986.

No notice of violation is being issued since the date of modification

'

operability predates the issuance of the violation and subsequent

response. This violation remains open pending review of the licensee's

Operating Experience Report (OER) and further corrective action in this

area.

One licensee identified violation and no deviations were identified.

4.

Maintenance Observation (62703)

,

The inspectors observed maintenance activities and reviewed records to

verify that work was conducted in accordance with approved procedures,

Technical Specifications, and applicable industry codes and standards. The

inspectors also verified that:

redundant components were operable;

administrative controls were followed; tagouts were adequate; personnel

were qualified; correct replacement parts were used; radiological controls

were proper; fire protection was adequate; quality control hold points

'

were adequate and observed; adequate post-maintenance testing was

performed; and independent verification requirements were implemented.

The inspectors independently verified that selected equipment was properly

returned to service.

.

3

Outstanding work requests were reviewed to ensure that the licensee gave

priority to safety-related maintenance.

The inspectors observed / reviewed portions of the following maintenance

activities:

86-BUGG1

Conduit Changeout on Diesel Generator (DG) No.1 Lubrica-

tion Temperature Switch.

87-AABK1

Reference Leg Fill for Unit 2 Reactor Water Level Instru-

ment B21-LTM-N0170-1.

MI-10-6G

Plant Batteries, Rev. 12, performed on battery 1A-1,

86-BSDF1

MI-10-500G

Annual Lubrication Change Schedule.

The licensee found a deteriorated jacket water gasket while performing

maintenance on DG 3.

The gasket was located between the engine block and

a cylinder head. The gasket sealed the internal Jacket water passage from

the block to the cylinder head.

The gasket had allowed jacket water to

leak out onto the top exterior of the engine. No damage was done to the

engine.

The licensee has sent the gasket to the Harris Energy and Environ-

mental Center for examination. The licensee plans to replace the gaskets

(one per cylinder) during normal diesel outages once the new 7 day LC0 TS

is approved. The inspector will followup on the licensee's final resolu-

tion of this issue. This is an Inspector Followup Item: DG Jacket Water

Gasket Deterioration (325/87-02-03 and 325/87-02-03).

No violations or deviations were identified.

5.

Surveillance Observation (61726)

The inspectors observed surveillance testing required by Technical

l

Specifications.

Through observation and record review, the inspectors

verified that:

tests conformed to Technical Specification requirements;

administrative controls were followed; personnel were qualified; instru-

l

mentation was calibrated; and data was accurate and complete.

The

inspectors independently verified selected test results and proper return

l

to service of equipment.

The inspectors witnessed / reviewed portions of the following test

activities:

PT-12.3.1

Emergency DG Inspection.

While observing PT-12.3.1 on DG No.1, the inspector observed that the

fuel pump to injector lines had been removed with no action taken to

prevent trash from falling into the fuel pump discharge opening.

The

cross connect between the left and right fuel return lines was found with

two adjacent support clamps missing. The inspector found one fuel return

line flexible hose abraded from contact with a support member edge. No

condition found by the inspector rendered the DG inoperable. These items

were called to the attention of the maintenance manager.

No violations or deviations were identified.

6.

Operational Safety Verification (71707)

The inspectors verified conformance with regulatory requirements by direct

observations of activities, facility tours, discussions with personnel,

reviewing of records and independent verification of safety system status.

The inspectors verified that control room manning requirements of 10 CFR 50.54 and the technical specifications were met.

Control room, shift

supervisor and clearance logs were reviewed to obtain information

concerning operating trends and out of service safety systems to ensure

that there were no conflicts with Technical Specifications Limiting

Conditions for Operations. Direct observations were conducted of control

room panels, instrumentation and recorder traces important to safety to

verify operability and that parameters were within Technical Specification

limits. The inspectors observed shift turnovers to verify that continuity

of system status was maintained.

The inspectors verified the status of

selected control room annunciators.

Operability of a selected Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) train was

verified by insuring that: each accessible valve in the flow path was in

its correct position; each power supply and breaker, including control

room fuses, were aligned for components that must activate upon initiation

signal; removal of power from those ESF motor-operated valves, so identi-

fled by Technical Specifications, was completed; there was no leakage

of major components; there was proper lubrication and cooling water

available; and a condition did not exist which might prevent fulfillment

of the system's functional requirements.

Instrumentation essential to

system actuation or performance was verified operable by observing on-

scale indication and proper instrument valve lineup, if accessible.

i

l

.

.

The inspectors verified that the licensee's health physics policies /

procedures were followed. This included a review of area surveys, radia-

tion work permits, posting, and instrument calibration.

The inspectors verified that:

the security organization was properly

manned and security personnel were capable of performing their assigned

.

functions; persons and packages were checked prior to entry into the

protected area (PA); vehicles were properly authorized, searched and

escorted within the PA; persons within the PA displayed photo identifica-

tion badges; personnel in vital areas were authorized and effective

compensatory measures were employed when required.

The inspectors also observed plant housekeeping controls, verified

position of certain containment isolation valves, checked a clearance, and

verified the operability of onsite and offsite emergency power sources.

The following items were observed in the main control room:

a.

On December 31, 1986, the inspector observed licensed personnel's

response to notification of inoperable Technical Specification (TS)

equipment from the time of notification through completion of the

required action statement. The Limiting Condition of Operation (LCO)

involved less than the required number of chlorine detection system

monitors being available, as required by TS 3.3.5.5.

Action state-

ment "b" of TS 3.3.5.5, requires, with both chlorine detectors of

either subsystem inoperable, within one hour isolate the control room

and operate in the recirculation mode. The licensed operator, whom

i

was notified that both the Unit 1 and 2 control room monitors

1-X-AT-2977 and 2-X-AT-2977 were inoperable due to electrolyte not

wetting the sensor, knew immediately that they were in a TS LC0

condition.

The inspector noted the following areas of concern:

o

The notified individual failed to note the time of notification.

He estimated a time of 9:35 a.m.

When the one hour action

statement was completed at 10:37 a.m., he re-evaluated his time

of initial notification as 9:40 a.m.

The inspector cbserved the

individual on the phone between 9:38 a.m. and 9:40 a.m.

o

The action statement phrase, " operate in recirculation mode",

caused some confusion.

The operators had been trained that

recirculation mode meant running the Control Building Emergency

Air Filtration (CBEAF) trains with a makeup of 1000 SCFM from

the outside. In the event of a real chlorine release this would

not be desirable. Shift personnel finally decided that recircu-

lation mode meant running the normal air conditioning system

without any outside makeup.

o

The operator followed the instructions provided in annunciation

procedure APP-UA-28, 5-1, Control Room Intake Air Hi Chlorine,

Revision 7, dated May 22, 1986. By following this procedure, the

operator was unsuccessful in closing the normal makeup air

damper (2L-D-CB). One of the chlorine monitor test buttons was

depressed and left engaged to keep the damper closed until a

fuse could be pulled to de-energize the damper in the close

position.

The annunciator procedures app-UA-28,

5-1,

on both Unit 1

(Revision 8) and 2 (Revision 7) were inadequate.

New chlorine

monitors were installed per plant modification 86-072. The system

had been returned to service at 9:30 a.m. , on December 24, 1986.

The new monitors incorporated an automatic reset of the high

chlorine alarm when the condition cleared.

Hence, the momentary

lifting and retermination of a lead in the logic without resetting

the monitor as provided in the annunciator procedure, would not keep

the makeup damper closed.

The need to change the APP was not

identified by the modification package. TS 6.8.1.a. requires written

procedures be established for procedures in Appendix A of Regulatory

Guide 1.33, November 1972. The regulatory guide requires procedures

for correcting abnormal, offnormal or alarm conditions.

Failure to

adequately establish APP-UA-28, 5-1, is a violation of TS 6.8.1.a:

Failure to Adequately Establish Chlorine Monitor Annunciator

Procedure (324/87-02-02 and 325/87-02-02).

The licensee identified the problem with the monitors as a vacuum

being created in the electrolyte reservoir, thereby inhibiting flow

onto the sensor. The licensee drilled holes in the plastic reservoir

cap to correct the problem.

The licensee will issue an OER to resolve the issues found during

this event.

The inspector will review the OER as part of the

violation followup.

b.

On January 6, 1987, the inspector observed on Unit 2, that the B Loop

of Residual Heat Removal (RHR) was in an abnormal configuration.

Discussion with the control operator, who was reviewing the system

alignment, revealed that the RHR pump shutdown cooling suction valves

E11-F006B and 0 had been lef t closed.

The operator had initialed

step 5.4.B.28 of OP-17, Residual Heat Removal System Operating

Procedure, indicating that he had opened these valves. The failure

to complete the step correctly is considered a licensee identified

violation per 10 CFR 2,

Appendix C,

in that it would have been

identified had the inspector not asked.

Corrective actions were

discussed with the operations manager.

c.

On January 12, 1987, the inspector observed no indication on the Unit

1 "J" drywell to torus vacuum breaker. The operator replaced a burnt

out lamp.

d.

On January 18, 1987, at 4:10 p.m., the inspector observed that Unit 2

had entered an LC0 per TS 3.3.2.

The shift foreman, while reviewing

procedures for changing conditions from startup to power operation,

discovered that reactor pressure was above 500 psig with the -low-

condenser vacuum switches B21-PTM-N056A,

B,

C and D bypassed.

Footnote f of TS table 3.3.2-1, requires the channels to be operable

with reactor steam pressure greater than or equal to 500 psig.

Reactor pressure was reduced to below 500 psig at 5:02 p.m.

The subject was brought to the attention of the operations super-

intendent and general plant manager on January 20, 1987.

The

licensee then initiated a review into the circumstances surrounding

the LCO.

On January 17, 1987, at 11:58 p.m.,

in accordance with

Gp-05, Unit Shutdown, the bypass switches were placed to BYPASS when

reactor pressure was less than 500 psig. At 11:50 p.m., the inboard

Main Steamline Isolation Valves (MSIV) had been closed to maintain

reactor pressure.

At 1:00 a.m.,

on January 18, a clearance,

No. 2-0087, was hung on the inboard MSIV to allow the turbine

gen 2rator exciter to be uncoupled from the generator. Between 2:15

and 2:45 a.m. , on January 18, the shift which bypassed the low

condenser switches allowed reactor pressure to go above 500 psig.

Pressure remained above 500 until the time of discovery at 4:10 p.m.,

by the next shift.

With the switches bypassed, all four channels were inoperable. Per

TS action statement 3.3.2.c, one channel had to be tripped in one

hour and take the action in table 3.3.2.1.

The action No. 21,

required by table 3.3.2.1, is to be in at least startup with the

MSIVs closed within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> or be in at least hot shutdown within 6

hours and in cold shutdown within the next 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

From the information presented to the inspector, it appears

fortuitous that the action statement associated with TS 3.3.2 was

met.

According to the licensee, because the inboard MSIVs were

closed prior to exceeding the 500 psig, the intent of action No. 21

{

was met; the unit was in startup with the reactor isolated from the

condenser by the main steamlines being closed. The inspector agrees

with the licensee that this was indeed the situation.

However, the

l

inspector notes that the action statement does not specifically

indicate whether closure of one or both MSIVs are required in each

i

line.

Failure to close both valves in each line in this particular

case resulted in no safety hazard.

However, this same action

i

statement also applies to inoperable main steam radiation monitor

l

channels. In that case, it would be advantageous to have both valves

closed, thereby reducing the potential of leakage through the main

i

steam 11nes. During the exit, the plant manager agreed to provide the

operators additional guidance concerning shutting the MSIVs in

'

compliance with TS.

The licensee plans to revise GP-05 to include a caution note not to

exceed 500 psig with the low condenser vacuum switches bypassed.

This is an Inspector Followup Item: Add Caution Note to GP-05 and

Review Instructions Regarding MSIV Closure (324/87-02-04).

e.

On January 26, 1987, the inspector observed no indication on the

Unit 1 "C" drywell to torus vacuum breaker. The operator replaced a

burnt out lamp.

During a Unit 2 drywell inspection on January 7,

1987, the inspector

observed a loose pipe clamp nut on snubber 2E11-875S318 and a missing and

some loose pipe clamps on the CRD lines. The licensee issued work request

87-AASE1 to tighten the snubber pipe clamp.

Field inspection by the

,

licensee revealed 5 of 1216 pipe clamps inspected were missing. Another

114 were either loose or bent such that the tolerance between the clamps

and CRD lines exceeded the allowable tolerance. The allowable tolerance

is 1/8" as specified in piping specification BSEP 248-107, section 20.1.

The licensee corrected the problems prior to startup.

An engineering evaluation (EER 87-0051) identified the as-found condition

of the insert lines to meet both short term and long term ASME code

criteria.

One configuration on the withdrawal lines was found to meet

only the short term criteria. Meeting the short term criteria means that

the calculated stresses do not exceed that required to make the material

fail, but, all the conservatism required by the ASME code is not met.

Hence, none of the as-found conditions were severe enough that failure of

a line would have occurred in the event of a seismic event. The safety

significance of postulated CRD line breaks is discussed in FSAR paragraphs

4.6.2.2.2, 4.6.2.2.3 and 4.6.2.2.4.

In summary, the control rod is

anticipated to either stay in place or insert into the core.

A break in the CR0 lines would result in leakage of the reactor coolant

into the drywell .

Paragraph 4.6.2.2.3 of the FSAR states that in an

experiment to simulate the failure of the withdrawal line, a leakage rate

of 80 gpm had been measured with reactor pressure at 100 psi. These lines

are considered to be safety related lines. Failure to have the CR0 lines

supported in accordance with section 20.1 of procedure BSEP 248-107 is

a condition adverse to quality.

This is a violation of 10 CFR 50,

Appendix B, Criterion V, which requires activities affecting quality be

accomplished in accordance with procedures: Failure to Have CRD Supports

Installed Per Specification (324/87-02-01).

One violation and no deviations were identified.

7.

Onsite Followup of Events (93702)

On January 5,

1987 at 4:12 p.m.,

Unit 2 reactor experienced a turbine

control valve (TCV) fast closure scram from 100*. of full power.

The

initiating event was a malfunction of the main generator auto voltage

regulator.

While attempting to raise the voltage as required by

procedures, the auto voltage regulator became erratic. Voltage oscillated

up and down randomly in large swings.

On one spike down, the loss of

excitation relay actuated causing the generator field breaker to open and

a load reject signal to be generated.

The TCVs fast closed on the load

reject signal. The loss of excitation relay actuation also initiated a

primary generator lockout. The resultant trip of the generator caused a

power drain on the system and a 60% to 70*.' of nominal voltage degraded

voltage condition. This condition existed for approximately five seconds.

The following sequence of events describes the plant response of major

systems and operator actions required to place the plant in a stable

condition.

6 at 1950 hours0.0226 days <br />0.542 hours <br />0.00322 weeks <br />7.41975e-4 months <br /> without any

major problems.

Excluding HpCI and RCIC, all other major components functioned as

designed. These items are discussed in greater detail below. The voltage

regulator was found to have dirty contacts.

Because the regulator had

been erratic, the licensee was in the process of writing a special

procedure to clean the contacts while on line.

During the event, the RHR Service Water (RHRSW) pump 20 was found tripped.

It was restarted without difficulty.

The permissive suction pressure

switch was calibrated.

No problem could be found.

The cause of the

initial pump trip was attributed to low suction pressure. Apparently when

the 2A RHRSW pump was started with two service water pumps supplying

the conventional service water header, the header pressure decreased

momentarily causing the 2D RHRSW pump to trip.

Other problems encountered involved SRV sonic detector indications and

some computer points which did not print.

These items were corrected

prior to startup on January 13, 1987,

2-E51-F022, RCIC Return to Condensate Storage Tank (CST), Anti-Rotation

Device

The F022 valve failed to fully close due to failure of the valve's anti-

rotation device.

During normal operation, the motor operator stem nut

turns, moving the valve stem up or down.

The stem clamp, normally

attached to the valve stem through a key and set screw arrangement, rides

up and down a groove inside the valve yoke, preventing stem rotation.

If

the stem clamp disengages from the yoke guide, the valve stem would turn

with the stem nut and not open or shut the valve.

Once the actuator

turned the limit switches the required number of turns, the valve would

indicate the required position and stop.

The F022 valve failed because the set screw had not been engaged to the

valve stem.

The valve stem set screw hole had been drilled in the wrong

location, not allowing the set screw to engage the valve stem.

This let

the stem clamp drop down, freeing the stem clamp key, disengaging the stem

clamp from the yoke. When the valve was operated, the motor-operator

turned the required number of turns, the closed limit switch then opened,

stopping the motor. However, since the stem was rotating, the valve was

not shut.

The licensee found five other valves with anti-rotation device stem clamp

problems during subsequent inspections as follows:

-

Valve

Problem

2-E11-F0248, RHR Suppression Pool

Valve Stem Not Drilled.

Return Valve.

2-E11-F045, RCIC Steam Admission Valve.

Missing Key.

1-E41-F012, HPCI Minimum Flow Valve.

Missing Key.

Two Unit 2 non-safety Reactor Water Cleanup (RWCU) valves also had

problems.

The licensee has inspected all but seven Unit 1 valves that have anti-

rotation devices as of the exit interview. The licensee has committed to

report the complete inspection results in a supplement to LER 2-87-01.

The inspectors will followup on the inspection as part of the LER

clowout.

When the licensee had discovered the F022 problem, they embarked on an

ihspection program.

Special Procedure SP-87-002, Inspection of Anchor-

04,rling Anti-rotation Devices for Unit 1 and 2, was written to conduct

the inspection.

The licensee started inspecting Unit 2 valves per the

pricedure first and performed a visual inspection of the Unit 1 valves for

dislodged stem clamps. No problems were noted during the visual inspec-

tien. However, the E41-F012 valve was found with a missing key when the

SP-37-002 inspection was performed. The stem clamp had rotated with the

set screw catching in the stem keyway. While the valve would continue to

function like that, for how long is unknown. Thus, the ability of the

miniaum flow valve to maintain a flowpath for the HPCI system was in

jeopt rdy.

The tissing key for the 2-E51-F045 valve could have compromised the

operaatlity of the RCIC system.

The F045 must open in the event of a

demand for RCIC in order to supply steam to the turbine. The set screw

was pieventing rotation of the valve stem rather than the key / keyway fit.

While the RCIC was not rendered inoperable at that time, valve failure

could have occurred in the future.

Two licensee procedures currently govern the installation of the anti-

rotation devices:

Anchor (Pressure Seal) Globe Valves Maintenance

Instruction MI-16-503J, and Anchor (Bolted Bonnet) Globe Valves Mainte-

nance Instruction MI-16-5030.

For example, MI-16-503J, Rev. 6

step

!!.D.18 of the reassembly procedure, requires that the mechanic " Replace

the -key (s) and lif t the stem clamp in place." Contrary to this require-

ment, valves 2-E51-F045 and 1-E41-F012 were found without keys.

Step

!!.D.17, requires the mechanic to drill small indentations in the valve

. - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

.

14

stem per attachment 1 in the procedure.

Contrary to this requirement,

valve 2-E51-F022 was found with the stem indentation incorrectly drilled.

Based on the location of the set screw, the indentation could not be lined

up to the screw. The above failure to follow procedure is a violation:

Failure to Follow Maintenance Procedures When Installing Motor-Operated

Valve Anti-Rotation Devices (325/87-02-05 and 324/87-02-05).

2-E41-F006, HPCI Injection Valve, Motor Failure

As described above, the F006 motor failed when the operator attempted to

manually inject HPCI. The licensee found a hole burned through the motor

armature and extensive heat damage.

The DC motor was manufactured by

Peerless for Limitorque in August,1985, per the date code in the serial

number. The inspector verified that environmentally qualified insulation

had been used in the motor.

The verification was accomplished through

examinations of motor procurement documents, motor and insulation inspec-

tion, and discussions with licensee employees and a vendor program branch

inspector.

The inspector also verified that a recent Part 21 issued by

Limitorque on December 19, 1986, concerning lead wire insulation, did not

apply to the F006 motor. The part 21 referred to a Kapton over Nomex

insulation while the F006 valve had a woven fiberglass over Nomex.

One violation and no deviations were identified.

8

Engineered Safety Features (ESF) System Walkdown (71710)

The inspectors performed a walkdown of the Unit 1 and 2 HPCI systems. The

walkdown included inspection of the turbine pump skids, portions of the

steam lines and injection lines.

Major valves and instruments were

verified to be in service as required by operating procedure, OP-19, High

Pressure Coolant Injection System, Revision 7 and 52 for Units 1 and 2,

respectively.

No violations or deviations were identified.

9.

Onsite Review of Licensee Event Reports (92700)

The listed Licensee Event Reports (LERs) were reviewed to verify that the

information provided met NRC reporting requirements.

The verification

included adequacy of event description and corrective action taken or

planned, existence of potential generic problems and the relative safety

significance of the event.

Onsite inspections were performed and

concluded that necessary corrective actions have been taken in accordance

with existing requirements, licensee conditions and commitn.ents.

The

following reports are considered closed.

the above

documents and discussions with plant personnel, the inspector concludes

that the licensee has adequately addressed the issue.

No violations or deviations were identified.

12. Cold Weather Preparations (71714)

The inspector verified that the licensee had implemented 0/I-43, Freeze

Protection and Cold Weather Bill, Rev. 1,

on January 30, 1987.

The

inspector verified that the freeze protection circuit lights were

energized for the RCIC/HPCI condensate storage tank low level switches.

The inspector noted that the thermometers used to measure ambient

temperatures in the service water and diesel generator buildings were

missing. The shift foreman directed an auxiliary operator to replace the

thermometers.

No violations or deviations were identified.

13. Unit 2 Drywell Closeout and Containment Integrity (71707, 61715)

On January 11, 1987, the inspector conducted a tour of the Unit 2 drywell

prior to operations closeout. The inspector observed that the "L" sonic

detector had two of the four mounting band nut to retaining band tack

welds broken.

One edge of the detector was in contact with the SRV

discharge pipe but the opposite side was approximately 1/8" from the pipe.

The licensee replaced the retaining band with one from stock per work

request 87-ABER1.

The licensee could not determine when or how the

retaining assembly got damaged. The inspector verified that the manual

isolation valves on the RHR and core spray systems were locked open as

required per procedure.

A visual inspection of the inboard primary

containment isolation valves was performed on the following systems:

HPCI, RCIC, RWCU, feedwater and main steam. No problems were noted. The

inspector also examined the outboard MSIVs and fesd.ater stop check valves

in the MSIV pit.

Some scoring was noted on the

"C"

MSIV stem.

This

condition had already been evaluated by maintenance.

staff in the safety evaluation issued by NRR on June 3,

1983.

The

licensee committed to the installation of the modifications in a letter

dated March 9, 1984. NRR accepted the licensee's commitment in a letter

dated May 18, 1984. The licensee installed the Plant Modifications (PM)

in PM-84-369, declared operable on October 26, 1985, and PM-84-370,

declared operable on May 20, 1986, for Units 1 and 2, respectively.

TS

amendment 87 for Unit 1, dated July 30, 1985, and amendment 124 for

Unit 2, dated April 30, 1986, were made, incorporating the logic changes.

The inspector verified that the ADS logic change was accomplished in

accordance with the commitments made to the NRC.

The verification

included a review of the plant modification packages, as-built drawing

changes, review of Emergency Operating Procedures level / power control flow

chart which included the requirement to place the ADS logic inhibit

switches to inhibit prior to injecting Stanoby Liquid _ Control during an

Anticipated Transient Without Scram (ATWS).

The inspector reviewed

training documents concerning the modification.

The inspector verified that the new switches were installed in the control

room.

The inspector verified that the surve. lance requirement to verify

the position of the inhibic switches had been implemented in 01-3.1 and

3.2, revisions 2 and 4, for Units 1 and 2, respectively.

This item is

closed for both units.

No violations or deviations were identified.

15. Unit 2 Hydrogen Water Chemistry Test (79502)

The licensee conducted test 2-SP-86-081, Rev. 1: Hydrogen Water Chemistry

Mini-Test to Determine the Feasibility of Using Hydrogen to Minimize

Inter-Granular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) at Brunswick.

Report

325, 324/87-01 has further details.

The resident inspectors verified

i

that: Main Steam L_ine (MSL) radiation monitor setpoints were increased

per procedure; radiation surveys were conducted prior to and during the

test; personnel manned H2 and 02 flow control stations continuously; H2

detectors were in place and appeared operable; visiting personnel had

required escorts; H2 trucks maintained required distance from the chlorine

tank car; licensee routinely checked for H2 leaks; reviewed SP-86-096,

E&RC Activities During Hydrogen Water Chemistry Test; installation of

,

!

hydrogen and oxygen lines per SP-86-096.

The inspector reviewed the

first two water chemistry data sets to ensure that no unanticipated

affects were found.

l

No violations or deviations were identified.

16.

Reportability of HPCI Valve Failure (93702)

The licensee found that the Unit 1 E41-F002, HPCI inboard steam supply

valve, would not stroke open while returning HPCI to standby after a

surveillance test.

The event occurred at 9:45 a.m. on January 16, 1987

l

,

.

,

.

21

but the licensee did not report the event via the Emergency Notification

System till 6:08 p.m. on January 17. The. licensee failed to recognize

that the event was reportable under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(iii)(D). Since the

licensee identified the problem, reported it when found, and has issued

NCR S-87-002 to address permanent corrective action, no notice of viola-

tion is being issued.

The F002 valve failure resulted from a faulty

auxiliary contact block.

The inspectors will followup on the contact

failure and the above NCR as part of the LER followup.

One licensee identified violation and no deviations were identified.
