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.

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
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.
