SUMMARY

OF FINDINGS Inspection Report (IR) 05200025/2020009, 05200026/2020009; 07/01/2020 through 09/30/2020; Vogtle Unit 3 Combined License, Vogtle Unit 4 Combined License, initial test program and operational programs integrated inspection report.

This report covers a 3-month period of announced Inspections, Tests, Analysis, and Inspection Criteria (ITAAC), preoperational test program, and operational program inspections by resident and regional inspectors. Two findings of very low safety significance (Green) were identified by the inspectors. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2519, Construction Significance Determination Process. Cross-cutting aspects are determined using IMC 0613, Appendix F, Construction Cross-Cutting Areas and Aspects. All violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRCs Enforcement Policy and the temporary enforcement guidance outlined in enforcement guidance memorandum (EGM)11-006. The NRCs program for overseeing the safe construction of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in IMC 2506, Construction Reactor Oversight Process General Guidance and Basis Document.

A. NRC-Identified and Self Revealed Findings Green. The inspectors identified a performance deficiency and an ITAAC finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated non-cited violation (NCV) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 50, Appendix J, Primary Reactor Containment Leakage Testing for Water-Cooled Power Reactors, for the licensees failure to complete the containment system in accordance with Option B, "Performance-Based Requirements," prior to commencing the Unit 3 Type A containment integrated leak rate test (CILRT). The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP) as CR 50061137 with planned corrective actions to complete the containment system and perform additional testing.

The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was material to the acceptance criteria of the ITAAC. The finding was associated with the Construction Reactor Safety -

Inspection/Testing Cornerstone. Using IMC 2519, Appendix A, Construction Significance Determination Process, this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was associated with the containment system (CNS), which is in the low risk column of the AP1000 Construction Significance Determination Matrix, and was not a repetitive significant condition adverse to quality. In accordance with IMC 0613, Appendix F, Construction Cross-Cutting Areas and Aspects, the finding was determined to be indicative of present licensee performance and was associated with the cross-cutting aspect of Change Management in the area of Human Performance. Specifically, rather than maintaining nuclear safety as the overriding priority, the design change associated with the new pressure boundary welds on the EPAs was not adequately evaluated to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements [H.3].

(Section 3T05)

Green. The inspectors identified a performance deficiency and a construction finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to establish an adequate procedure for UFSAR required battery performance testing of the Division B and C, Class 1E, 72-hour batteries.

The licensee entered this issue into their CAP as CRs 50058111, 50057805 and corrected the procedure prior to implementation.

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor and a finding because it represented a substantive failure to establish or implement an adequate program, process, procedure, or quality oversight function. The inspectors concluded the finding was associated with the Inspection/Testing cornerstone and assessed the finding in accordance with IMC 2519, Construction Significance Determination Process, Appendix A, AP 1000 Construction Significance Determination Process, Section 4. The inspectors determined the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not related to a security or operational program and the test had not been performed. In accordance with IMC 0613 Appendix F, Construction Cross-Cutting Areas and Aspects, the inspectors determined the finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Avoid Complacency in the area of Human Performance. Specifically, the licensee did not properly proofread following a copy/paste from a previous section that allowed an incorrect number to propagate through the procedure

[H.12]. (Section 3T12)

B. Licensee-Identified Violations None

REPORT DETAILS Summary of Plant Construction Status During this report period for Unit 3, the licensee completed various activities to satisfy aspects of the Vogtle Unit 3 operational programs and preoperational testing program. These activities included completion of Unit 3 closed vessel testing, Automatic depressurization system line resistance testing, ADS check and squib valve testing, Appendix J-Type B and Type C containment leak rate tests, completion of the initial Appendix J containment integrated leak rate test, completion of Vogtle Unit 3 structural integrity test,. The licensee also conducted its first NRC-observed Emergency Preparedness Drill for Unit 3, completed installation of the passive containment cooling tank, air operated valves, and motor operated valves; and test calibrations associated with various safety-related and nonsafety-related level transmitters, flow transmitters, pressure transmitters, and temperature elements.

During this report period for Unit 4, the licensee completed installation of various portions of Unit 4, including the Unit 4 conical roof.

65001.D-02.02-Test Witnessing The inspectors performed interviews, walkdowns, direct testing observations, and documentation reviews of the CILRT procedures and associated documents to verify that the testing performed for the CILRT met the requirements in the licensee's containment leak rate test program, 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix J, NEI 94-01, and ANSI/ANS-56.8-1994.

The inspectors observed portions of the test for the following attributes:

latest version of the test procedure was at the test location and in use by test personnel; minimum crew requirements were met; responsibilities and qualification requirements of test personnel were met; test prerequisites and initial conditions were met; testing was executed and coordinated properly; M&TE required by the procedure was calibrated and in service at the time of the test; and administrative test controls were properly followed.

In addition, the inspectors observed the following activities:

pre-job briefs were performed for multiple shifts and work disciplines that discussed critical aspects of the task, safety concerns and precautions, and series of actions that would occur if leaks were identified; the test was performed such that hold times and pressures were in accordance with required regulations and commitments; the containment structure was closed out and a general inspection of the accessible portions of interior and exterior containment surfaces was performed in accordance with procedures; the test pressure and hold time used, maximum rate of pressurization, including pressurization increments, and depressurization of the containment were adhered to; logging of required test parameters, leakage rates, and observations, which included atmospheric and containment pressure, temperature, dew point temperature, and liquid level (e.g., sump levels, pressurizer level) was performed as required; test anomalies, problems, interruptions, and/or deficiencies were recorded in logs and reviewed for inclusion in the licensees corrective action program; proper system alignment and configuration control for testing criteria was performed in accordance with procedure and work order instructions; the test crews were evaluated to verify that the test performance was coordinated and the crews were knowledgeable of the test program and procedures and the application and reading of instrumentation; and the inspectors verified that no adverse environmental conditions, such as high wind or extreme temperature differentials, could potentially impact the pressurization and stabilization for the CILRT; the inspectors reviewed the containment area temperature surveys and verified that the instrument strings were operational and adequately covered the volumes covered by the area surveys; the inspectors verified that the applicant utilized an NRC accepted method of analysis for the CILRT computer program to determine the overall leak rate; and the inspectors also reviewed the preliminary CILRT results to determine if they were satisfactory for the as-left containment conditions.

b. Findings Introduction NRC inspectors identified a performance deficiency and an ITAAC finding of very low safety significance (Green), and associated non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J, Primary Reactor Containment Leakage Testing for Water-Cooled Power Reactors, for the licensees failure to complete the containment system prior to commencing the Type A containment integrated leak rate test (CILRT).

Description Type A containment ILRTs are intended to measure the primary reactor containment overall integrated leakage through all potential leakage paths. Primary reactor containments for all water-cooled power reactors that have a combined license under 10 CFR Part 52 are required to meet the containment leakage test requirements set forth in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J. In the licensees UFSAR, the licensee was committed to implementing a containment leak rate test program compliant with the Option B requirements defined in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J. Option B required, in part, that the Type A containment ILRT must be conducted after the containment system has been completed and is ready for operation.

On June 18, 2020, the licensee approved an Engineering and Design Coordination Report (E&DCR) to change the ASME Section III jurisdictional pressure boundary of the containment system (CNS) related to the electrical penetration assemblies (EPAs).

Specifically, this change moves the pressure boundary from the EPA extension sleeve

- to - containment penetration sleeve weld to new welds associated with a retaining ring. The new welds that attach the retaining ring were to be installed at a later, unspecified date and were designed to cover the non-pressure boundary EPA extension sleeve - to - containment penetration sleeve welds. This change was designed to comply with the ASME code during the containment vessel structural integrity test, which was performed in conjunction with and just prior to the Type A containment ILRT.

On July 9, 2020, the licensee began pressurization of containment for the Type A CILRT, following a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> hold after completion of the structural integrity test. The inspectors noted that the new pressure boundary welds described in the E&DCR had not been installed prior to the start of the Type A containment ILRT and required Type B local leak rate testing associated with the new welds had not been incorporated in the testing procedures. The inspectors questioned the licensees ability to satisfy 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J, Option B having started the Type A containment ILRT without the containment system complete and ready for operation. Subsequent to the inspectors questions, the licensee documented this issue in their corrective action program as CR 50061137.

Analysis The inspectors determined that the failure to complete the containment system prior to commencing the Type A containment ILRT, as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J, Option B, was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be an ITAAC finding because it was material to the acceptance criteria of ITAAC 2.2.01.07.i (107) in that a valid leak rate less than La cannot be obtained until subsequent Type B local leak rate testing is performed on the retaining ring pressure boundary welds associated with the EPAs, which had not been incorporated in the testing procedures prior to NRC questions. Additionally, the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was material to the acceptance criteria of the ITAAC.

The finding was associated with the Construction Reactor Safety - Inspection/Testing Cornerstone. Using IMC 2519, Appendix A, Construction Significance Determination Process, this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was associated with the containment system (CNS), which is in the low risk column of the AP1000 Construction Significance Determination Matrix, and was not a repetitive significant condition adverse to quality.

In accordance with IMC 0613, Appendix F, Construction Cross-Cutting Areas and Aspects, the finding was determined to be indicative of present licensee performance and was associated with the cross-cutting aspect of Change Management in the area of Human Performance. Specifically, rather than maintaining nuclear safety as the overriding priority, the design change associated with the new pressure boundary welds on the EPAs was not adequately evaluated to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements [H.3].

Enforcement 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix J, Primary Reactor Containment Leakage Testing for Water-Cooled Power Reactors, Option B, Performance-Based Requirements, requires, in part, that the Type A containment ILRT must be conducted after the containment system has been completed and is ready for operation.

Contrary to the above, the licensee began the Type A containment ILRT on July 9, 2020, prior to the containment system being complete and ready for operation.

The licensee entered this issue into its corrective action program as CR 50061137 with planned corrective actions to complete the additional pressure retaining welds described in the E&DCR along with the necessary testing to calculate an accurate La.

This violation is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05200025/2020009-01, Failure to Complete Containment Prior to Unit 3 ILRT).

b. Findings Introduction The NRC inspectors identified a performance deficiency and construction finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to establish an adequate procedure to verify the test method and acceptance criteria prescribed in UFSAR Section 14.2.9.1.14. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that preoperational test procedure 3-IDS-ITPP-501 would adequately verify by a battery performance test that the capacity of the Class 1E, Division B and Division C, 72-hour batteries (3-IDSB-DB-2A, 3-IDSB-DB-2B, 3-IDSC-DB-2A, 3-IDSC-DB-2B) meets or exceeds the required battery ampere-hour rating and that following a discharge test the voltage of each battery cell is verified to be greater than or equal to the specified minimum cell voltage.

Description On August 4, 2020, the inspectors reviewed preoperational test procedure 3-IDS-ITPP-501, Class 1E DC and UPS Preoperational Test, to verify if the procedure would demonstrate the test method and acceptance criteria prescribed in UFSAR section 14.2.9.1.14 was met. During their review, the inspectors identified that procedure sections 4.2.4 and 4.3.3 only required a test duration of 21.6-hours. The inspectors questioned the licensee to determine if 24-hour test durations would adequately verify the UFSAR requirements for the 72-hour batteries. Upon review, the licensee stated that they used the wrong test duration in the procedure and that the correct test duration should have been 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. The inspectors noted that if the procedure were completed as written, the licensee would not have been able to verify the acceptance criteria in UFSAR section 14.2.9.1.14 for the 72-hour batteries. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as CRs 50058111 and 50057805 and corrected the procedure.

Analysis The inspectors determined the failure to establish an adequate procedure to verify the acceptance criteria in UFSAR section 14.2.9.1.14 for the 72-hour batteries was contrary to the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V and was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor and a finding because it represented a substantive failure to establish or implement an adequate program, process, procedure, or quality oversight function. Specifically, preoperational test procedure 3-IDS-ITPP-501 allowed a 24-hour test duration for a performance test of the 72-hour batteries (3-IDSB-DB-2A, 3-IDSB-DB-2B, 3-IDSC-DB-2A, 3-IDSC-DB-2B) rather than a 72-hour test duration to meet the test method and acceptance criteria specified UFSAR section 14.2.9.1.14.

The inspectors concluded the finding was associated with the Inspection/Testing cornerstone and assessed the finding in accordance with IMC 2519, Construction Significance Determination Process, Appendix A, AP 1000 Construction Significance Determination Process, Section 4. The inspectors determined the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not related to a security or operational program and the test had not been performed.

In accordance with IMC 0613 Appendix F, Construction Cross-Cutting Areas and Aspects, the inspectors determined the finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Avoid Complacency in the area of Human Performance. Specifically, the licensee did not properly proofread following a copy/paste from a previous section that allowed an incorrect number to propagate through the procedure [H.12].

Enforcement Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, states, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances. UFSAR Section 14.2.9.1.14 requires, in part, that the capacity of each of the seven Class 1E batteries is verified to meet or exceed the required ampere-hour rating by a battery performance test in accordance with IEEE 450 and following discharge testing, the voltage of each cell is verified to be greater than or equal to the specified minimum cell voltage.

Contrary to the above, since July 22, 2020, the licensee failed to have an adequate procedure for activities affecting quality that was appropriate to the circumstances.

Specifically, the licensee failed to establish an adequate procedure to verify the test method and acceptance criteria prescribed in UFSAR Section 14.2.9.1.14 because the procedure allowed for a 24-hour test duration instead of a 72-hour test duration for the performance testing of the 3-IDSB-DB-2A, 3-IDSB-DB-2B, 3-IDSC-DB-2A, and 3-IDSC-DB-2B 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> batteries. The licensee entered this issue into its corrective action program and corrected the procedure.

Because this violation was not repetitive or willful, was of very low safety significance (Green), and was entered into the licensees CAP as CRs 50058111 and 50057805, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation (NCV 05200025/2020009-02, Failure to Establish Adequate Procedure for Unit 3 72-hour Battery Performance Test) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
