SUMMARY
An evaluation of the content and quality of a representative sample of the Licensee Event Reports (LERs) submitted by McGuire 1,2 during the period from March 1, 1986 to July 31, 1987 was performed.
This evaluation provides an overview of the quality of the LERs by comparing their contents to the reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.73(b) and the guidelines contained in NUREG-1022 and its Supplements Nos. I and 2.
This is the second time the McGuire LERs have been evaluated using this methodology.
The results of this evaluation indicate that the overall quality of the McGuire LERs, for the three areas that are evaluated (i.e.,
the text, abstract, and coded fields), has improved from the previous evaluation.
The first evaluation's overall average LER score was 8.3, which was above the industry average (7.7) at that time.
For the current evaluation, McGuire's overall average LER score is 8.9, while the current industry average has increasad to 8.4.
This indicates that the licensee is keeping pace with the overall industry's efforts to provide LERs of consistently high quality. The quality of the discussions concerning.
]
safety consequences and operator actions has increased since the previous l
l evaluation.
Two deficie.:ies found in this evaluation concern the requirements to j
discuss the corrective actions and to adequately identify failed l
components.
The score *for the corrective actions decreased somewhat since the previous evaluation.
The score for the requirement to identify those components that failed (e.g., by manufacturer and model number) increased from the previous evaluation but is still considered inadequate.

c LER QUALITY EVALUATION FOR MCGUIRE 1,2 i
INTRODUCTION 1
In order to evaluate the overall quality of the contents of the Licensee Event Reports (LERs) submitted by McGuire 1,2 during the period from March 1, 1986 to July 31, 1987, a sample of the unit's LERs was evaluated.
This evaluation was performed by comparing the contents of each LER to the reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.73(b) and the guidelines 1
2 and 2.3 The contained in NUREG-1022 and its Supplements Nos. 1 sample consists of a total of 15 LERs, which is considered to be the maximum number of LERs necessary to be evaluated for a unit / station.
See Appendix A for a list of the LER numbers in the sample.
This is the second time that the McGuire LERs have been evaluated i
using the same methodology. As before, it was necessary to start the evaluation before the end of the assessment period because the input was due such a short time after the end of the assessment period. Therefore, those LERs prepared by the unit late in the assessment period were not available for selection.
METHODOLOGY The evaluation consists of a detailed review of each selected LER to determine how well the content of its text, abstract, and coded fields meet the criteria of 10 CFR 50.73(b).
In addition, each selected LER is l
compared to the guidance for preparation of LERs presented in NUREG-1022 and Supplements No. I and 2 to NUREG-1022; based on this comparison, suggestions were developed for improving the quality of the LERs.
The purpose of this evaluation is to provide feedback to improve the quality of LERs.
It is not intended to increase the requirements concerning the
" content" of these reports beyond the current requirements of 10 CFR 50.73(b).
Therefore, statements in this evaluation that suggest 1
measures be taken are not intended to' increase requirements and should be viewed in'that light.
However, the minimum requirements of the regulation must be met.
The evaluation process for each LER is divided into two parts. The first part of the evaluation consists of documenting comments specific to the content and presentation of each LER.
The second part consists of determining a score (0-10 points) for the text, abstract, and coded fields of each LER.
The LER specific comments serve two purposes:
(1) they point out what the analyst s considered to be the specific deficiencies or observations concerning the information pertaining to the event, and (2) they provide a basis for a count of general deficiencies for the overall sample of LERs that was evaluated.
Likewise, the scores serve two purposes:
(1) they serve to illustrate in numerical terms how the analysts perceived the content of the information that was presented, and (2) they provide a basis for determining an overall score for each LER.
The overall score for each LER is the result of combining the scores for the text, abstract, and coded fields (i.e., 0.6 x text score + 0.3 x abstract score + 0.1_x coded fields score = overall LER score).
The results of the LER quality evaluation are divided into two categories:
(1) detailed information and (2) summary information. The cetailed information, presented in Appendices A through D, consists of LER sample information (Appendix A), a table of the scores for each sample LER (Appendix B), tables of the number of deficiencies and observations for the text, abstract and coded fields (Appendix C), and comment sheets containing narrative statements concerning the contents of each LER (Appendix D).
When referring to Appendix 0, the reader is cautioned not to try to directly cor elate the number of comments on a comment sheet with the LER j
scores, as the analysts have flexibility to consider the magnitude of a deficiency when assigning scores (e.g., the analysts sometimes make comments relative to a requirement without deducting points for that 1
requirement).
i 2
f 1
RESULTS A discussion of the analysts' conclusions concerning LER quality is presented below. These conclusions are based solely on the results of the evaluation of the contents of the LERs selected for review and as such represent the analysts' assessment of the unit's performance (on a scale of 0 to 10) in submitting LERs that meet the criteria of 10 CFR 50.73(b) and the guidance present in NUREG-1022 and its supplements.
Table 1 presents the average scores fo the sample of LERs evaluated for the unit. In order to place the scores provided in Table 1 ir, perspective, the distribution of the overall average score for all units / stations that have been evaluated using the current methodology is provided on Figure 1.
Figure 1 is updated each month to reflect any changes in this distribution resulting from the inclusion of data for those units / stations that have not been previously evaluated or those that have i
been reevaluated.
(Note: The previous score for those units / stations that
)
are reevaluated is replaced with the score from the latest evaluation).
Table 2 and Appendix Table B-1 provide a summary of the information that is the basis for the average scores in Table 1.
For example, McGuire's
]
average score for the text of the LERs that were evaluated is 9.1 out of a possible 10 points.
From Table 2 it can be seen that the text score actually results from the review and evaluation of 17 different requirements ranging from the discussion of plant operating conditions prior to the event [10 CFR 50.73(b)(2)(ii)(A)] to text presentation.
The resultant percentage scores in the text summary section of Table 2 provide an indication of how well each text requirement was addressed by the unit for the 15 LERs that were evaluated.
Based on similar methodology, the percentage scores for the various sections of the abstract and the items in the coded fields were also computed and are shown in Table 2.
As indicated in Table 2, certain requirements or areas within the text, abstract, and coded fitids are causing the unit difficulty when preparing LERs. Relatively low percentage scores may indicate that the unit needs additional guidance concerning these requirements, or it may indicate that the unit understands the basic requirement but has either:

Percentage scores are the result of dividing the total points fer a requirement by the number of points possible for that requirement.
(Note:
Some requirements are not applicable to all LERs; therefore, the number of points possible was adjusted accordingly.)
The number in parenthesis is the number of LERs for which the requirement was considered applicable, b.
A percentage score for this requirement is meaningless as it is not possible to determine from the information available to the analyst whether this requirement is applicable to a specific LER.
It is always given 100*4 if it is provided and is always considered "not applicable" when it is not.
7
(1) excluded certain less significant information from a number of the discussions concerning that requirement or (2) totally failed to address the requirement in one or two of the selected LERs. The unit should review f
the LER specific comments presented in Appendix 0 to determine why it received less than a perfect score for certain requirements.
Specific Deficiencies and Observations The more important deficiencies and observations.for the text, y
abstract, and coded field sections of the LERs are discussed separately below.
Text Deficiencies and Observations The discussions of corrective actions, Requirement 50.73(b)(4), are considered to be marginal for eight of the 15 discussions as they lacked certain information necessary to a complete discussion.
Four of these eight failed to adequately discuss those actions that appeared necessary to prevent recurrenct of the event; two failed to adequately discuss the generic implications of the failure or error; and one failed to adequately discuss the immediate corrective actions.
Corrective actions, both immediate and planned, should be discussed for all causes ider.tified in an LER.
The requirement to provide adequate identification for failed components, Requirement 50.73(b)(2)(ii)(L), was considered deficient in four of the seven LERs involving a failed component.
In most cases this requirement can be met by simply providing both the manufacturer and model number for each failed component.
For certain components (e.g., pipes, i
fitting, et'c.) the material and size of the failed component may be more appropriate information. Whatever information is provided, it should be specific enough to allow the reader to determine if the failed component is the same as one that is used at his facility.
In addition, there are instances when component identification can be important to the reader, even though the component did not fail.
For example, if the design of a component contributes to the event, it would be helpful to provide 8
j
f 1
information that would enable others to specifically identify that component.
I The Energy Industry Identification System (EIIS) codes were not provided for the components mentioned in nine of the 15 LERs, and another LER failed to include any EIIS codes.
These codes should be provided for all components and systems referred to in the text.
> Abstract Deficiencies and Observations While there are no specific requirements for an abstract, other than those given in 10 CFR 50.73(b)(1), an abstract should, as stated in 4
NUREG-1022, Supplement No. 2, summarize the following information from the text:
1 1
1.
Cause/Effect What happened that made the event reportable.
I 2.
Responses Major plant, system, and personnel responses as a result of the event.
3.
Root / Intermediate The underlying cause of the event. What Cause caused the component and/or system failure or the personnel error.
4.
Corrective Actions What was done immediately to restore the I
plant to a safe and stable condition and what was done or planned to prevent recurrence of the event.
Items 1 and 2 above had acceptable scores; but the cause summaries were inadequate in eight LERs; and the corrective actions summaries were inadequate in ning LERs.
Summarizing all corrective actions and causes discussed in the text will help eliminate many of the problems found.
Eight of the abstracts were deficient in the area of presentation.
9
The use of a more concise summary would have improved the abstract score for the four LERs that exceeded the specified maximum length of 1400 spaces; while three abstracts failed to use the space available to provide the nuessary information.
l Coded Fields Deficiencies and Observations The main deficiency in the area of coded fields involves the titles, Item (4). Nine of the 15 titles failed to include adequate cause information, two failed to include the result of the event and three failed
)
l to include the link between the cause and the result.
While the result is considered to be the most important part of the title, cause and link information (as suggested in NUREG-1022, Supplement No. 2) must be included l
to make a title complete.
Example titles are presented in Appendfx D for many of the LERs which were considered to have poor titles.
SUMMARY
l Table 3 provides a summary of the areas that need improvement for the McGuire LERs.
For additional and more specific information concerning deficiencies, the reader should refer to the information presented in Appendices C and D.
General guidance concerning requirements can be found i
in NUREG-1022, and NUREG-1022 Supplements No. I and 2.
l l
As was mentioned earlier, this is the second time that the McGuire i
I LERs have been evaluated using the same methodology.
The previous evaluation was reported in March of 1986.
Table 4 provides a comparison of I
the scores for both evaluations.
Improvements in the information provided for nearly all the requirements resulted in increased scores for the texts, the abstracts, and the coded fields.
The overall average LER score of 8.9 remains above the current industry overall average of 8.4.
(Note: The ind:.stry overall average is the result of averaging the latest overall average LER score for each unit / station that has been evaluated using this methodology.)

50.73(b)(2)(ii)(C)--At what time on March 12 did the DRPI indication for Control Rod D-2 begin to jump sporadically?
2.
50.73(b)(2)(ii)(D)--The root and/or intermediate cause discussion concerning the problem is I
inadequate. Although there is no requirement to do so, a supplemental report may be appropriate to I
describe the results of the troubleshooting efforts if these results significantly change the reader's perception of the event and/or require additional I
corrective actions be taken.
3.
50.73(b)(2)(ii)(J)(2j--It appears that personnel error and/or procedural deficiency may be involved in I
this event, but it is not discussed. Are the operators required to respond to the " Control Rod Position Unreliable - Yes" alarm by observing the l
video display?
4.
5_0;73(b)(4)--Discussion of corrective actions taken or planned is inadequate.
Although there is no i
requirement to do so, a supplemental report may be j
appropriate to describe the results of the i
troubleshooting efforts if these results I
significantly change the reader's perception of the l
event and/or require additional corrective actions be taken.
Would it help if the video display information was alta directed to the printout?
5.
50.73(b)(5)--Information concerning previous similar events is inadequate.
The number of the LERs for the previous incidents (at least the four involving circuit card failures) would be helpful.
Abstract 1.
50.73(bl(,1}--Summary of cause information is inadequate. The reason that the OAC Rod Position Indication program "could not be verified operable during all portions of this event" would be good information to mention in the abstract.
