PLANT STATUS

Unit 1

The unit began the inspection period during ascension to full power following refueling

outage (RFO) Q1R28, where it remained until May 19, 2025, when the unit automatically tripped

due to a transient on the 125 Vdc bus. The unit was restarted on May 28, 2025, where it

remained at full-rated thermal power, with the exception of short-term power reductions for

control rod sequence exchanges, testing, and as requested by the transmission

system operator.

Unit 2

The unit began the inspection period at full-rated thermal power. On May 19, 2025, power was

reduced to approximately 80 percent due to a transient on the 125 Vdc bus. The unit was

returned to full-rated thermal power the same day where it remained at full-rated thermal power,

with the exception of short-term power reductions for control rod sequence exchanges, testing,

and as requested by the transmission system operator.

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 performed activities described in IMC 2515,

Appendix D, Plant Status, observed risk significant activities, and completed on-site portions of

IPs. 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.

71152S

A self-revealed Green finding and associated Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Actions, was identified for the licensees failure to

correct a condition adverse to quality associated with the Unit 1 main steam isolation

valves (MSIVs). Specifically, the licensee identified two deficiencies with the design of the

Unit 1 MSIVs but failed to take corrective actions to eliminate those design deficiencies

before exceeding Technical Specification (TS) leakage limits on March 12, 2025, during the

Q1R28 refueling outage.

Description:

On March 12, 2025, during the Q1R28 refueling outage, the as-found local leak rate test

results on the Unit 1 MSIVs exceeded the leakage limit of TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 of less than or equal to 62.4 standard cubic feet per hour (scfh) through steam line

C, and 156 scfh for the combined leakage rate for all MSIV leakage paths. The licensee

performed a causal evaluation of the event in the corrective action program under issue

report (AR) 4844848 and submitted LER 2025-003-00, Main Steam Isolation Valves Local

Leak Rate Test Exceed Technical Specification Limits, on May 9, 2025, for a condition

prohibited by Technical Specifications.

On May 10, 2025, the inspectors reviewed the sites Corrective Action Program

Evaluation (CAPE) under AR 4844848, the maintenance history of the affected MSIVs,

previous licensee event reports involving MSIV local leak rate test failures, and previous

corrective action program actions to address those failures. The inspectors noted that in an

apparent cause evaluation under AR 130565130565 Design Deficiency Induces MSIV Seat Wear

Resulting in Unacceptable Leak Rate Performance, dated November 7, 2002, the licensee

identified a design deficiency which caused localized seat wear due to the valve plug

dragging across the seating edge of the seat ring during valve closure. This design deficiency

causes excessive leakage past the valve seat and was determined by the licensee to be the

cause of exceeding TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 limits in LER 2012-001-00,

dated May 18, 2012, LER 2015-003-00, dated April 29, 2015, and LER 2016-001-00, dated

May 19, 2016. In addition to the design deficiency associated with the valve plug, the licensee

identified a separate design deficiency associated with MSIV pilot disc stem wear. This

additional design deficiency caused excessive leakage past the pilot valve seat and was

determined to be a contributing cause of exceeding TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10

limits in LER 2016-001-00, dated May 19, 2016, and evaluated by the licensee in an apparent

cause evaluation under AR 2643434, As-Found LLRT Results on MSIVs Exceeded Tech

Spec Limits during Q2R23, dated March 21, 2016.

Licensee Technical Specification 5.5.12, states, in part, that the primary containment leakage

rate testing program will be in accordance with the guidelines contained in NEI 94-01

Industry Guideline for Implementing Performance-Based Option of 10 CFR 50, Appendix J,

revision 3-A, dated July 2012, and the conditions and limitations specified in NEI 94-01,

12

revision 2-A, dated October 2008. NEI 94-01, Section 10.2.3.4, Corrective Action, states

that if Type C test results are not acceptable, then a cause determination should be

performed and corrective actions identified that focus on those activities that can eliminate

the identified cause of a failure with appropriate steps to eliminate recurrence. Cause

determination and corrective action should reinforce achieving acceptable performance. As

stated in the licensees multiple LERs, the licensee developed corrective actions to modify the

valve design to address both deficiencies.

In response to fleet operating experience with MSIV design vulnerabilities, the licensee

documented AR 4187756, Recommended Reassessment of MSIV Design Vulnerability,

dated October 25, 2018. The assessment performed under AR 4187756 highlighted the risks

of delaying the implementation of the needed modifications and created actions to develop a

more aggressive implementation schedule. In an associated risk assessment documented

under QDC-0-2018-0464, the site acknowledged the potential consequences of continued

operation of the MSIVs without performing the modifications, to include exceeding the

leakage limits of TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 in future outages and determined

that the risk of exceeding TS leakage limits was acceptable until the modifications were

installed. The site approved a plan that included performing the planned modifications on one

valve in each subsequent outage, with the possibility of two valves per outage if resources

were available.

The inspectors reviewed the licensees revised installation schedule and noted that prior to

the refueling outage in 2021 (Q1R26) the site received a license amendment to raise the

leakage limits for TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 (ADAMS Accession

No. ML20150A328). Subsequently, during Q1R26, the site chose not to install the planned

modifications in any of the MSIVs, as all the valves passed their local leak rate tests with the

new elevated limits, despite the leakage results on the 'C' main steam line indicating an

increasing trend and despite developing a plan to proactively complete the modifications to

correct the deficiencies in the valve design. In 2023, the site completed the Q1R27 refueling

outage and MSIV 1-0203-2C, 1-0203-2A, and 1-0203-2D had yet to receive the corrective

modifications to address the design deficiencies. MSIV 1-0203-1C had received one of the

two modifications in a previous outage, but following a local leak rate test failure in Q1R27,

the site chose to flush the valve to obtain more favorable leak rate results rather than

complete the second corrective modification. The post flush local leak rate test met the

acceptance criteria for as-left testing and the site credited the flush as a maintenance activity.

The sites historical use of flushing as a maintenance activity is further discussed in the

Results section of this inspection report.

Ultimately, the inspectors concluded that the licensee had identified deficiencies with the

MSIV design that were the cause of multiple local leak rate test failures since 2002. These

design deficiencies resulted in the licensee exceeding TS leakage requirements on multiple

occasions and were conditions adverse to quality. The inspectors determined that the

licensee failed to correct the design deficiencies before exceeding TS leakage requirements

on March 12, 2025, despite multiple opportunities to complete the modifications prior to that

refueling outage, because the licensee failed to prioritize the corrective modifications and

routinely accepted the risk of violating the Technical Specification leakage limits as a

potential consequence.

Corrective Actions: The site completed the remaining modifications to address the design

deficiencies on MSIV 1-0203-1C, 1-0203-2C, 1-0203-2A, and 1-0203-2D during the

Q1R28 outage.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the failure to correct a condition

adverse to quality with the MSIV design was a performance deficiency. Specifically, while

performing activities governed by TS 5.5.12, Primary Containment Leakage Rate Testing

Program, the licensee identified that design deficiencies within the MSIVs were the cause of

multiple instances of exceeding the leakage limits of TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10

but, contrary to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, failed to correct the condition

adverse to quality prior to exceeding TS limits again during the Q1R28 refueling outage

in 2025.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because it was associated with the SSC and Barrier Performance attribute of the Barrier

Integrity cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable

assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused

by accidents or events. Specifically, TS-allowable leakage limits were exceeded for the

individual leakage path on steam line 'C' as well as the combined leakage for all MSIV

leakage paths.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The

inspectors screened the finding in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix A, exhibit 3, Section

C, and answered No to both screening questions. Therefore, the finding screens to very low

safety significance (Green).

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.14 - Conservative Bias: Individuals use decision making practices

that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is

determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. Specifically,

over multiple years the licensee accepted the risk of not performing modifications to correct

the MSIV design deficiencies prior to exceeding TS leakage limits. In addition, during the

Q1R27 refueling outage, after the 1-0203-1C MSIV had failed its as-found local leak rate test,

the licensee rationalized the performance of valve flushing as a maintenance activity to

achieve more favorable local leak rate testing results rather than completing the intended

modifications on MSIV 1-0203-1C.

Enforcement:

Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires, in part,

that measures be established to ensure conditions adverse to quality, such as failures,

deficiencies, deviations, and nonconformances are corrected.

Technical Specification 3.6.1.3, Primary Containment Isolation Valves (PCIVs), states, in

part, that each primary containment isolation valve be operable. TS 3.6.1.3, Condition D,

MSIV leakage rate not within limits, requires that leakage be restored within limits in 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 outlines the limits for MSIV leakage and requires that

leakage through each MSIV leakage path be less than or equal to 62.4 scfh and 156 scfh for

the combined leakage rate for all MSIV leakage paths.

Contrary to the above, from November 7, 2002, to approximately March 27, 2025, the

14

licensee failed to correct a condition adverse to quality associated with design deficiencies on

the Unit 1 MSIVs, which are safety related components. Specifically, from November 7, 2002,

to approximately March 27, 2025, the licensee failed to modify MSIV 1-0203-2C, 1-0203-2A,

and 1-0203-2D to correct a design deficiency related to valve plug wear occurring on the

seating edge of the seat ring during valve closure. Additionally, from March 21, 2016, to

approximately March 27, 2025, the licensee failed to modify MSIV 1-0203-1C, 1-0203-2C,

1-0203-2A, and 1-0203-2D to correct a design deficiency related to pilot disc stem wear. On

October 22, 2018, the licensee developed a plan to modify each affected valve to correct the

deficiencies but instead deferred those corrective actions through multiple refueling outages,

to include the use of flushing as a corrective maintenance activity in place of completing the

modifications and instead accepted the risk of exceeding the Technical Specification leakage

limits as a consequence of those deferrals. As a result, on March 12, 2025, the licensee

exceeded the leakage limits of TS Surveillance Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 and violated

TS 3.6.1.3, Condition D, to restore leakage within limits in 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> when leakage was not

within limits during the previous operating cycle.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Observation: Review of the Sites use of Flushing as a Maintenance Activity

Following a Local Leak Rate Test Failure of a Main Steam Isolation Valve

71152S

On March 12, 2025, the as-found local leak rate test results on main steam isolation

valve (MSIV) 1-0203-1C exceeded the leakage limit of Technical Specification Surveillance

Requirement 3.6.1.3.10 of less than or equal to 62.4 standard cubic feet per hour (scfh). In

the previous outage, the 1-0203-1C MSIV was flushed after failing the as-found local leak

rate test to obtain more favorable leakage results. The as-left test following the flush resulted

in acceptable leakage and the site credited the flushing as a maintenance activity without

performing in-valve maintenance. The inspectors reviewed the sites historical use of MSIV

flushing against the performance attributes of inspection procedure (IP) 71152 and

determined that the site was not incorporating the applicable lessons learned from relevant

operating experience and implementing that experience throughout the organizational

decision-making process. Specifically, the site's historical use of flushing as corrective

maintenance following an as-found local leak rate test failure has had no technical

justification for why it met programmatic requirements and how it was appropriate for

the circumstances.

NEI 94-01, Industry Guidance for Implementing Performance-Based Option of 10 CFR

Part 50, Appendix J, revision 3-A, Section 10.2.3.4, Corrective Action, states that if Type C

test results are not acceptable, then a cause determination should be performed and

corrective actions identified that focus on those activities that can eliminate the identified

cause of a failure with appropriate steps to eliminate recurrence. The cause determination

and corrective action should reinforce achieving acceptable performance. As documented in

issue report (AR) 4848760, MSIV flushing Trend Information, the site has credited flushing

as a maintenance activity to obtain more favorable testing results twelve times between 2008

and 2023 after as-found local leak rate test failures. Of those twelve times, ten of the flushed

MSIVs went on to fail their as-found local leak rate tests during the next refueling outage.

Industry benchmarking was also performed by the site under AR 4684879, Appendix J

Owners Group Benchmark IR, which similarly showed that seven out of the nine MSIVs

flushed to obtain more favorable local leak rate results went on to fail their as-found local leak

rate test in the subsequent outage. The use of flushing was challenged internally under

15

AR 4757927, Appendix J ER-AA-380 Fatal Flaw Disposition, and was dispositioned by

corporate engineering as acceptable as long as the flushing is characterized as part of

maintenance following the as-found test failure. The inspectors noted that the sites

justification for crediting the use of flushing as a corrective maintenance activity revolved

around the licensee's assertion that nothing in the regulatory requirements prohibited the use

of flushing and the NRC had not issued any violations associated with flushing.

The inspectors reviewed the applicable regulatory guidance and determined that there is not

a prohibition specifically against the use of flushing as a corrective maintenance activity.

Because MSIV flushing is performed after the site accepts the results of an as-found local

leak rate test failure, by definition, the flushing would not be considered pre-conditioning of

the component. However, as the data suggests, performing a flush of the valve does not

correct design deficiencies or degraded conditions associated with the valve. Additionally, if

the site suspects that wear products or other foreign material are on the seat of an MSIV

causing it to fail its local leak rate test, merely flushing the material from the seat does not

eliminate the source of the foreign material and correct the underlying condition. To know

whether foreign material or other build up on the valve seat is the cause of a local leak rate

test failure, the site needs to assess the condition of the valve seating surface after the test

has failed. Historically, the site has not taken affirmative action to perform this assessment.

To the contrary, the site performs a flush of the MSIV following the initial as-found test failure

and, if the results are favorable, retroactively attributes the cause of the failure to foreign

material without ever assessing the internal condition of the valve. This approach lacks

technical rigor and the as-left test results can equally be attributed to cycling the valve open

and shut an additional time to obtain a better seating condition. MSIV flushing without

validating that the cause of the as-found test failure was eliminated potentially masks a latent

degraded condition that the site does not address prior to the next operating cycle. The site

has historically accepted flushing as a corrective maintenance activity, despite applicable

operating experience showing that the way it was being implemented at the site was not

effective, simply because it was allowable and not because it was technically justifiable or

appropriate for the circumstances.

The inspectors did not identify any findings or violations in this observation.

The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50.9,

Completeness and Accuracy of Information, when the licensee failed to submit accurate

information in Licensee Event Report 05000254/2025-003-00 on May 9, 2025. Specifically,

the licensee misrepresented the status of modifications being completed on the affected main

steam isolation valves that were the subject of the LER.

16

Description

On May 9, 2025, the licensee submitted LER 05000254/2025-003-00, Main Steam Isolation

Valves Local Leak Rate Test Exceed Technical Specification Limits, (ADAMS Accession No.

ML25129A031). The licensee stated in the LER that the cause of the event was attributed to

pilot valve rotation causing stem nut wear which led to a leakage path. The licensee stated in

the LER that three of the four affected valves had not yet been modified to include

anti-rotation pilot keys and one valve included the modification. On June 19, 2025, the

inspectors reviewed the licensee's LER submittal along with the causal evaluation performed

by the licensee under issue report (AR) 4844848 and noted conflicting information concerning

which valves had received planned modifications to eliminate the design deficiencies

identified by the licensee in previous LERs. The inspectors requested the work history

concerning the four affected MSIVs, 1-0203-1C, 1-0203-2A, 1-0203-2C, and 1-2023-2D, and

up on review, identified that none of the valves had received the anti-rotation pilot key

modification.

Corrective Actions: The licensee documented the issue in the corrective action program with

actions to update the LER.

Corrective Action References: AR 4874899, NRC ID: LER U1 2025-003-00 Inaccurate Data

Performance Assessment:

The inspectors determined this violation was associated with a minor performance

deficiency. Specifically, the inaccurate LER represented a minor performance deficiency

because it was not viewed as a precursor to a significant event, would not have led to a more

significant safety concern, nor was it associated with a cornerstone attribute, and it did not

adversely affect any cornerstone objectives.

Enforcement:

The ROPs significance determination process does not specifically consider the regulatory

process impact in its assessment of licensee performance. Therefore, it is necessary to

address this violation which impedes the NRCs ability to regulate using traditional

enforcement to adequately deter non-compliance.

Severity: The inspectors determined that NRC Enforcement Policy, Section 6.9, Inaccurate

and Incomplete Information or Failure to Make a Required Report, example d.1 was the most

applicable to the violation. Therefore, the violation was determined to be Severity Level IV.

Violation: Title 10 CFR 50.9, Completeness and Accuracy of Information, states information

provided to the Commission by an applicant for a license or by a licensee or information

required by statute or by the Commissions regulations, orders, or license conditions to be

maintained by the applicant or the licensee shall be complete and accurate in all

material respects.

Title 10 CFR 50.73, Licensee Event Report System, states, in part, that the holder of an

operating license under this part or a combined license under part 52 of this chapter shall

submit a licensee event report for any operation or condition which was prohibited by the

plant's Technical Specifications.

Contrary to the above, on May 9, 2025, the licensee submitted LER 05000254/2025-003-00,

Main Steam Isolation Valves Local Leak Rate Test Exceed Technical Specification Limits,

17

which contained inaccurate information regarding which valves had been modified as the

result of corrective actions from previous LERs to eliminate the cause of exceeding TS

leakage limits. This information was material to the inspectors as it resulted in expanding the

scope of inspection activities associated with reviewing the LER to understand the regulatory

significance of the event.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS
