PLANT STATUS

Unit 1 began the inspection period at Rated Thermal Power (RTP). On December 4, 2020, the unit was down powered to 92 percent to resolve level control issues associated with the 1A Heater Drain Tank. The unit was returned to RTP on December 8, 2020, and remained at or near RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at RTP. On November 12, 2020, the unit automatically tripped due to an unexpected failure of the 'B' Generator Step-up (GSU) Transformer. The licensee placed the spare GSU in-service and the unit was returned to RTP on November 20, 2020, and remained at or near RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), resident inspectors were directed to begin telework and to remotely access licensee information using available technology. During this time, the resident inspectors performed periodic site visits each week; conducted plant status activities as described in IMC 2515, Appendix D, Plant Status; observed risk-significant activities; and completed on-site portions of IPs. In addition, resident and regional baseline inspections were evaluated to determine if all or portions of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. If the inspections could be performed remotely, they were conducted per the applicable IP. In some cases, portions of an IP were completed remotely and on-site. The inspections documented below met the objectives and requirements for completion of the IP.

(1)2515/194 - Inspection of the Licensees Implementation of Industry Initiative Associated with the Open Phase Condition Design Vulnerabilities In Electric Power Systems (NRC Bulletin 2012-01) Revision 0 of this Temporary Instruction (TI) was previously inspected, and closed, in Inspection Report 2019012 (ML19268A063).

However, a subsequent revision to the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Voluntary Initiative (Revision 3), provided licensees the option to leave the open phase protection (OPP) system in monitoring mode only in lieu of activating the automatic trip circuitry, provided it was supported by a risk evaluation. Revision 1 (and later Revision 2) of this TI was issued to provide inspection guidance for the new option.

The inspectors remotely reviewed licensee analyses and procedures that demonstrated operator manual actions would successfully mitigate the impact of an OPC. The inspectors completed Section 03.01c of TI 2515/194, Revision 2.

The inspectors verified that modeling used for the OPC reflected the as-designed and as-built plant, assumptions made by the licensee were reasonable, and licensee procedures were adequate to respond to an OPC. The inspectors also verified that human reliability analysis and recovery evaluations were done in accordance with NEI and voluntary initiative guidance.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Failure to Initiate Actions to Repair or Replace Degraded Cables associated with the Standby Auxiliary Transformer Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events

Green FIN 05000424,05000425/2020004-01 Open/Closed

[H.13] -

Consistent Process 71111.15 The inspectors identified a Green finding when the licensee failed to initiate actions per procedural requirements in NMP-ES-051-002, Tan Delta Testing, Version 10.2, for degraded cabling associated with the Standby Auxiliary Transformer (SAT). Specifically, following Tan Delta testing on September 2020, the licensee failed to initiate corrective actions per NMP-ES-051-002 for cabling conditions that met the Action Required criteria per the Tan Delta Assessment Criteria, which stated Repair or replacement of the cable SHALL occur at the first preventative maintenance activity or outage.

Description:

The SAT serves as an additional swing preferred offsite power source which is available to supply a safety-related bus for either unit in response to emergency conditions or for use during Reserve Auxiliary Transformer maintenance. The SAT is capable of being placed in service to fulfill Technical Specification 3.8.1, AC Sources - Operating, which requires two qualified circuits between the offsite transmission network and the onsite Class 1E AC Electrical Power Distribution System. The SAT is supplied power through direct buried cables from the Plant Wilson switchyard 13.8 kV system which can be powered from either the Southern Company 230 kV grid or Plant Wilsons onsite combustion turbine electrical generators.

From September 14, 2020, to September 23, 2020, the SAT was taken out of service for planned maintenance and testing evolutions. During the system outage, the licensee performed procedure NMP-ES-051-002, Tan Delta Testing, Version 10.2, in order to assess the global condition of the insulation. Tan Delta testing is performed to ascertain the current health of cables in order to detect degradation and initiate repairs prior to failure. Procedure NMP-ES-051-002, Attachment 4, Evaluation of TD Test Results, Version 10.2, provides Tan Delta assessment criteria for cables, which classifies the condition into Good, Further Study Required, or Action Required. The SAT cable ANAA02 has two parallel sets of shielded cables for all 3 phases and 4 test criteria for the Tan Delta testing. Cables ANAA02AA (A Phase) and ANAA02AF (C Phase) met the criteria for Action Required for exceeding Tan Delta and Delta-Tan Delta assessment criteria. As a result, Procedure NMP-ES-051-002, 4, states the following for Required Actions: Immediate repair or replacement should be performed. IF it is desired to return the cable to service prior to repair or replacement, perform a Withstand Test (see Note). IF the cable passes the Withstand Test, the cable can be returned to service for a limited period. Safety and operational effects of the cable failing during continued operation (I.e., an in-service failure) SHALL be evaluated prior to returning the cable to service. Repair or replacement of the cable SHALL occur at the first preventative maintenance activity or outage.

The licensee deferred the immediate repair or replacement, performed the Withstand Test, and performed a safety and operational effects assessment. The degraded condition and associated evaluation was captured in the Corrective Action Program (CAP) under Condition Report (CR) 10739386. However, the licensee failed to initiate any corrective actions or other formal tracking items to perform a repair or replacement of Cables ANAA02AA (A Phase) and ANAA02AF (C Phase) in accordance with the procedure.

Additionally, the inspectors performed a historical review of the Tan Delta testing results associated with the SAT. The only other Tan Delta data set was the first time performance in September 2013 per work order SNC141477, utilizing Procedure NMP-ES-051-002, Tan Delta Testing, Version 5.1. The inspectors compared the September 2013 Tan Delta results against the effective procedural requirements and assessment criteria at the time and determined Cable ANAA02AA (A Phase) exceeded the acceptable limits and met the criteria for replacement of the cable. However, the licensee did not replace the cable and the inspectors could not locate a condition report documenting the unsatisfactory results, an evaluation of the data, or a basis for deviating from the procedure. The inspectors communicated this concern to the licensee, and the licensee was unable to produce any condition report, technical justification, or assessment conducted at the time that would explain the deviation from the procedural requirement to replace the cable.

Corrective Actions: The licensee captured the inspectors findings in the CAP and created an action to repair or replace Cables ANAA02AA (A Phase) and ANAA02AF (C Phase)during the next preventative maintenance activity or outage, scheduled for September 2022.

Corrective Action References: 10751488, 10762502

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Procedure NMP-ES-051-002, Tan Delta Testing, Version 5.1, required the licensee to replace the cable if it exceeds the assessment criteria. Additionally, Procedure NMP-ES-051-002, Tan Delta Testing, Version 10.2, required that if testing determined the cabling condition met the Action Required criteria, Repair or replacement of the cable SHALL occur at the first preventative maintenance activity or outage. Following Tan Delta testing in September 2013 and 2020, the licensee failed to perform or initiate a corrective action to repair or replace the degraded cabling that met the criteria for repair or replacement in accordance with procedural requirements.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, continuing to operate the SAT without performing the appropriate repairs or replacement of the degraded cabling could lead to an unexpected failure of the SAT and/or a potential partial loss of offsite power if aligned to a safety related bus.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. Utilizing IMC 0609, Appendix A, the performance deficiency was screened as Green because the performance deficiency did not result in a complete or partial loss of a support system.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.13 - Consistent Process: Individuals use a consistent, systematic approach to make decisions. Risk insights are incorporated as appropriate.

Enforcement:

Inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this finding.

Inadequate Procedure to Maintain Secured Emergency Diesel Ready for Restart Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems

Green NCV 05000424, 05000425/2020004-Open/Closed

[P.1] -

Identification 71111.21M The team identified a Green finding and associated Non-cited Violation (NCV) of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to have appropriate procedures to maintain an intentionally secured Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) ready for restart in response to a single failure in the remaining operating train as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR).

Description:

The team reviewed unresolved item (URI) 05000424, 425/2019010-02 and additional information provided by the licensee. The team determined that a violation of NRC requirements existed. The URI concerned CR 10606308 that identified the EDGs do not meet a 7-day mission time due to the inability to start a previously secured EDG. When addressing the issue identified in the CR, the licensee asserted that the CR is identifying scenarios that are beyond the current license basis or represent departures from recommended accident response (as stated in the FSAR).

The current licensing basis described in the UFSAR and accepted by the NRC established that a single failure may occur at any time for the entire accident period. Consequently, it was determined that the licensee did not have appropriate procedures to maintain the EDGs in an operationally ready state for the entire accident period after one EDG is secured to preserve Nuclear Service Cooling Water (NSCW) mission time capabilities without offsite power available.

The following procedures were modified to include steps to correct the issue:

• 1910-1, E - 1 Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, version 3

• 1910-2, E - 1 Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, version 3

• 19010-C-BD, E-1 Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, Background Document, version 2

• NMP-OS-019-002-GL03, Vogtle Technical Support Center (TSC) Options Guideline, version 1

Corrective Actions: The licensee modified CR10606308 to document the deficiency in having appropriate procedures and to identify the procedures that need to be updated.

Corrective Action References: CR 10606308

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The team determined that the licensees failure to have appropriate procedures to maintain an intentionally secured EDG ready for restart in response to a single failure in the remaining operating train as described in the UFSAR was a performance deficiency and reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and prevent.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to have appropriate procedures affected the availability of ESF equipment required to mitigate a design basis accident.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Att. 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued October 7, 2016, for the Mitigating Systems cornerstone, and IMC 0609, App. A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC that maintained its operability or PRA functionality.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: P.1 - Identification: The organization implements a corrective action program with a low threshold for identifying issues. Individuals identify issues completely, accurately, and in a timely manner in accordance with the program. Specifically, the licensee failed to identify that appropriate procedures were necessary to maintain the design basis of the plant accurately and in a timely manner in accordance with the program (PI.1).

Enforcement:

Violation: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, required, in part, that Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Instructions, procedures, or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished.

Contrary to the above, prior to April 30, 2019, the licensee failed to prescribe instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances. Specifically, the licensee failed to prescribe procedures to maintain an intentionally secured EDG ready for restart in response to a single failure in the remaining operating train to mitigate a design basis accident.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

URI Corrective Actions for Single Failure Vulnerabilities Identified in Condition Report, CR 10606308 URI 05000424,05000425/2019010-02 71111.21M

Description:

The team identified an unresolved item (URI) for the licensees corrective actions associated with a single-failure vulnerability that is revealed when implementing emergency operating procedures (EOPs).

The EOP 19010-1, E - 1 Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, version 2, Step 17, directs the operators to shut down a train of engineered safety features (ESF) to preserve their long-term Nuclear Service Cooling Water (NSCW) inventory. The licensee identified a single failure hazard when implementing this procedure, and documented it in condition report, CR 10606308. The hazard resulted from previously unidentified design flaws in the EDGs starting system. The procedure stopped one of the operating EDGs during an accident. A short time after this manual stop of the EDG, the EDG becomes incapacitated because the starting air receiver and batteries drain. The EDGs are part of the ESF. The NSCW is the site ultimate heat sink. Neither the procedures nor the UFSAR discussed the ESF train becoming incapacitated from these design flaws during an accident. The licensees immediate determination of operability (IDO) for the condition report stated, This CR is identifying scenarios that are beyond the current license basis or represent departures from recommended accident response (as stated in the FSAR). In summary of the licensees position, the scenarios were judged, beyond the current license basis, because the UFSAR Section 9.2.5, "Ultimate Heat Sink," specified, in part, that the two tower basins of the NSCW meet the combined storage capacity requirements without makeup if operated in conformance with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.27. Section 9.2.5.1, "Design Bases," stated, in part, the design basis meets RG 1.27.

The UFSAR specified several accidents that required the NSCW. The design requirements postulated an accident along with a loss of offsite power, and an electrical or piping system single failure. The requirements for postulating the Single Failure Criterion for electrical and piping system cases were discussed in multiple chapters of the UFSAR. The two cases were postulated differently. For electrical single failures, any single failure within the protection system shall not prevent proper protective action at the system level when required, and there were no differences for active and passive failures. However, for piping systems there were differences between active and passive failures. Only active failures are postulated in the short-term period of an accident, while active or passive failures could be postulated in the long-term period of an accident. The UFSAR acknowledged the Single Failure Criterion in chapters one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, fifteen, and eighteen and did not specify any exceptions to it. Some of these instances are as stated below.

The UFSAR for electrical systems:

The UFSAR Section 3.1.2, Protection by Multiple Fission Product Barriers, for electrical power systems, stated, in part, a failure of a single component will not prevent the safety-related systems from performing their functionThe diesel generators are arranged so that a failure of a single component will not prevent the safe shutdown of the reactor.

The UFSAR Section 3.1.3, Protection and Reactivity Control Systems, stated, in part, the design basis for all protection systems is in accordance with the guidelines of Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) Standards 279-1971 and 379-1972.

• The IEEE 279-1971 standard specified two relevant criteria described by the NRC positions for electrical single failures described in the SECY paper; 4.2, any single failure within the protection system shall not prevent proper protective action at the system level when required, and that 4.16, the protection system shall be so designed that, once initiated, a protective action at the system level shall go to completion. Return to operation shall require subsequent deliberate operator action.

• The relevant criteria from the IEEE 379-1972 standard was, "The system shall be capable of performing the protective actions required to accomplish a protective function in the presence of any single detectable failure within the system (this is the "single failure") concurrent with all identifiable, but non-detectable failures, all failures occurring as a result of the single failure, and all failures which would be caused by the design basis event requiring the protective function."

The UFSAR for fluid systems:

The UFSAR Section 6.3.2.5, System Reliability, for the emergency core cooling system (ECCS), stated, in part,

• 6.3.2.5.1, Active Failure Criteria, an active failure is the failure of a powered component such as a piece of mechanical equipment, a component of the electrical supply system, or instrumentation and control equipment to act on command to perform its design function. Examples include the failure of a motor-operated valve to move to its correct position, the failure of an electrical breaker or relay to respond, the failure of a pump, fan, or diesel generator to start, etc....the ECCS can sustain an active failure in either the short or long term and still meet the required level of performance for core cooling.

• 6.3.2.5.2, Passive Failure Criteria, a passive failure is the structural failure of a static component which limits the component's effectiveness in carrying out its design function. Examples include cracks in pipes, sprung flanges, valve packing leaks, or pump seal failures. the ECCS can sustain a single passive failure during the long-term phase and still retain an intact flow path to the core to supply sufficient flow to keep the core covered and to effect the removal of decay heat.

In 1977, the staff submitted a commission paper (SECY) to describe how the staff used the Single Failure Criterion as a tool in the review of the design of nuclear power plants (SECY 77-439). The SECY discussed the acceptable interpretations of IEEE 279-1972, IEEE 379-1972, and the Single Failure Criterion as applied to piping systems. A summary of the NRC positions from SECY 77-439 were as follows: The General Design Criteria make it clear that for electrical, instrumentation and control systems, application of the Single Failure Criterion to systems evaluation depends not only on the initiating event that invokes safety action of these systems, together with consequential failures, but also on active or passive electrical failures which can occur independent of the event. Thus, evaluation proceeds on the proposition that single failures can occur at any time. In contrast, for various fluid systems, the most limiting single active failure is considered in evaluating systems performance capability within the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. Twenty-four hours or greater after the event, a single passive failure equal to the leakage that would occur from a valve or pump seal failure, is assumed.

In addition, the UFSAR chapter 8 identified that the standard for the power systems was IEEE 308-1974, IEEE Standard Criteria for Class 1E Power Systems for Nuclear Power Generating Stations. Section 4.8 of the standard stated, in part, an analysis of the failure modes of Class 1E power systems and the effect of these failures on the electric power available to Class 1E loads shall be performed to demonstrate that a single component failure does not prevent satisfactory performance of the minimum Class 1E loads required for safe shutdown and maintenance of post-shutdown or post-accident station security.
