Station, Units 1 & 2; Identification and Resolution of Problems
 
The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors, regional reactor inspectors, and a regional health physics inspector. One Green finding was identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, ASignificance Determination Process
@ (SDP). Findings for which the SDP does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC
=s program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, AReactor Oversight Process,@ Revision 3 dated July 2000.
 
===A. NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings===
 
===Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems===
: '''Green.'''
A self-revealing, Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI "Test Control," was identified for the failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure. The test procedure for the line starter establishes test conditions by installing jumpers into a process rack, RK-2SEC-PROC-B1. Due to misidentification, jumpers were installed into the incorrect process rack, RK-2SEC-PROC-B. This rendered the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System inoperable. The licensee entered the deficiency into their corrective action program as Condition Report 08-37168. FENOC performed a root cause evaluation, evaluated appropriate human performance contributors, and initiated corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
 
The finding is greater than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the associated Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1 worksheet, the finding was determined to have very low safety significance, because there was no overall loss of system function due to system redundancy and the system would have been able to perform its required safety function for the applicable mission time during design basis events.
 
The cause of this finding is related to the cross-cutting area of human performance, in that FENOC failed to utilize adequate self and peer checking dur ing the identification of equipment and circuits specified in the test plan [H.4(a)]. (Section 4OA2.1) 
 
===B. Licensee-Identified Violations===
 
None

2OS1 Access Control to Radiologically Significant Areas (71121.01)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
(10 samples)
During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities to verify that the licensee was properly implementing physical, administrative, and engineering controls for access to locked high radiation areas, and other radiological controlled areas (RCA) during power operations. Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, relevant TS, and the licensee
=s procedures.
 
Plant Walkdown and Radiation Work Permits (RWP) Reviews
 
The inspectors toured accessible radiological controlled areas in Units 1 and 2, and with the assistance of a radiation protection technician, performed independent radiation surveys of selected areas to confirm the accuracy of survey data, and the adequacy of postings.
 
The inspectors identified an area in Unit 2 where radiological significant work was being performed. This area was the Unit 2 spent fuel pool transfer bridge, where pre-operational checks were being performed. The inspectors interviewed the worker performing the checks and reviewed the applicable RWP (208-2004) to determine if the radiological controls were acceptable and if the dosimetry setpoints were consistent with plant policy.
 
There were no significant dose gradients requiring relocation of dosimetry for the radiological significant job reviewed during this inspection. There were no current radiation work permits for airborne radioactivity areas with the potential for individual worker internal exposures of > 50 mrem.
 
During 2007, there were no internal dose assessments for any actual internal exposures that reached the reporting threshold of greater than 50 mrem Committed Effective Dose Equivalent (CEDE). The inspectors also reviewed data for the ten highest exposed individuals for 2007, and the dose/dose rate alarm reports and determined that no exposure exceeded site administrative, regulatory, or performance indicator criteria. Additionally, the inspectors confirmed that no declared pregnant workers were employed during 2007.
 
Problem Identification and Resolution A review of a licensee's Integrated Performance Assessment, Radiation Protection (BVSA-08-029), was conducted to determine if identified problems were entered into the corrective action program for resolution.
 
Nine (9) condition reports, associated with RCA access control, initiated between October 1, 2007 and February 28, 2008, were reviewed and discussed with the licensee staff to determine if the follow-up activities were being conducted in an effective and timely manner, commensurate with their safety significance.
 
High Radiation Area and Very High Radiation Area Controls
 
Nuclear Operating Procedures, related to high radiation area, and very high radiation area control, were reviewed, and implementation of these changes was discussed with the Radiation Protection Manager and Nuclear Oversight personnel.
 
Keys to locked high radiation areas (LHRA) located in Unit 1 and Unit 2 were inventoried and accessible LHRAs were verified to be properly secured and posted during plant tours.
 
Radiation Worker and Radiation Protection Technician Performance
 
Several radiological-related condition reports were reviewed to evaluate if the incidents were caused by repetitive radiation worker errors and to determine if an observable pattern traceable to a similar cause was evident.
 
Radiation Protection Technicians were questioned regarding their knowledge of plant radiological conditions and associated controls.
 
====b. Findings====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
2OS2 ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
(9 samples)
During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities to verify that the licensee was properly implementing operational, engineering, and administrative controls to maintain personnel exposure as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) for activities performed in 2007. Also reviewed were the dose controls for current activities and the preparations to control dose during the spring Unit 2 (2R13)refueling outage. Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable industry standards, and the licensee
=s procedures.
 
Radiological Work Planning
 
The inspectors reviewed pertinent information regarding cumulative exposure history, current exposure trends, and ongoing activities to assess 2007 site ALARA performance, current (2008) exposure trends, and the challenges for the spring 2008 Unit 2 (2R13) outage.
 
The inspectors reviewed the exposure status for tasks performed during the Unit 1 (1R18) fall 2007 outage and compared actual exposure with forecasted estimates contained in ALARA reviews. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the
 
{{a|1R18}}
==1R18 post outage plan and minutes for the Station ALARA Committee meetings==
 
to determine if ALARA measures were appropriately addressed for outage activities that resulted in actual doses greater than originally forecasted.
 
The inspectors evaluated the departmental interfaces between radiation protection, operations, maintenance crafts, and engineering to identify missing ALARA program elements and interface problems. The evaluation was accomplished by attending the daily management alignment meeting, a 2R13 Radiation Protection Readiness Review meeting and a Station ALARA Committee (SAC) meeting (08-10), reviewing recent SAC meeting minutes and the BVPS Mid-Cycle Review report, and interviewing the station Radiation Protection Manager. During the SAC, the inspectors evaluated challenge board presentations for various 2R13 jobs including reactor shutdown/startup, mechanical maintenance, and reactor coolant pump seal and motor maintenance.
 
The inspectors reviewed ALARA Plans for the upcoming 2R13 outage including steam generator channel head work (AP 08-2-21), reactor building sump modification (AP 08-2-33), steam generator permanent platform installation (AP 08-2-20), and split pin replacement (AP 08-2-38).
 
Verification of Dose Estimates
 
The inspectors reviewed the assumptions and basis for the annual site collective exposure projections. The inspector also reviewed individual and departmental exposure data for activities performed in 2007, to evaluate the accuracy of past dose projections.
 
The inspectors reviewed the licensee
=s procedures associated with monitoring and re-evaluating dose estimates when the forecasted cumulative exposure for tasks was approached and the implementation of these procedures during the Unit 1 fall 2007 outage. The inspectors reviewed the dose records for the ten workers who received the highest doses for 2007 to confirm that no individual exceeded the regulatory annual limit, administrative limits, or performance indicator criteria.
 
Past Jobs Performed
 
The inspectors reviewed the ALARA controls contained in various RWP's and ALARA Plans (AP) for activities performed during 2008. Included in this review were Unit 1 containment entries to identify and correct valve leakage (RWP 108-1038/AP 08-1-07), spent resin transfers (RWP 108-1032/AP 08-1-02), 1CH-FL-2 filter change-out (RWP 108-1032/AP 08-1-03), in-core drive replacement (RWP 108-1039/AP08-1-08), and Unit 2 radwaste processing activities (RWP 208-2034
& 2035/AP08-2-04 &05).
 
Source Term Reduction and Control The inspectors reviewed the status and historical trends for the Unit 1 and Unit 2 source terms. Through review of survey maps and interviews with the Senior Nuclear Specialist-ALARA, the inspectors evaluated recent source term measurements and control strategies. Specific strategies being employed included zinc addition (Unit 1), chemistry controls for 2R13, system flushes, and temporary shielding.
 
Declared Pregnant Workers The inspectors determined that no declared pregnant workers (DPW) were employed during 2007.
 
Problem Identification and Resolution
 
The inspector reviewed elements of the licensee
=s corrective action program related to implementing the ALARA program to determine if problems were being entered into the program for timely resolution. Eight condition reports related to dose/dose rate alarms, programmatic dose challenges, and the effectiveness in
 
predicting and controlling worker dose were reviewed.

===.1 Daily Review of Problem Identification and Resolution===
 
a Inspection Scope As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems,"
and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for followup, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into FENOC's corrective action program. This review was accomplished by reviewing summary lists of each CR, attending screening meetings, and accessing FENOC's computerized CR database.
 
====b. Findings====
 
=====Introduction.=====
A Green self-revealing, Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control," was identified for the failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure. This error resulted in the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System becoming inoperable.
 
=====Description.=====
On March 21, 2008, during activities to test the line starter to a safety-related battery exhaust fan, the test jumper was inadvertently placed on terminal points in the wrong process rack. The testing was in support of Engineering Change Package (ECP) 07-0002-40, which was being implemented to replace select Class 1E motor control center components.
 
The purpose of this phase of the ECP test plan was to test the battery rooms' exhaust fan [2HVZ-FN216B] control circuit, overload protection, and the alarm logic circuit. The plan required a jumper installation in process rack RK-2SEC-PROC-B1, but was inadvertently placed in rack RK-2SEC-PROC-B. This jumper was necessary to simulate the absence of a differential-pressure signal across fan 2HVZ-FN216A.
 
Both process racks are located below the Unit 2 Control Room in the Control Building 707 foot level, however in different rooms. Each process rack has a white placard label with its identification number. Also, there is a black placard that has a note for the location of the expansion panel. The black placard acts as a cross-reference to the other process rack, which added confusion to identifying the correct process rack.
 
Once the incorrect rack was opened, the identification tag for the circuit to be jumpered could not be observed due to obstruction by wires. To prevent disturbing other live circuits, prints were used to identify the location to place the jumper, contrary to station procedure NOBP-LP-2603, "Event-Free Tools and Verification Practices."  The jumper was installed into what was believed to be the correct location.
 
After a repeat failure to obtain expected test results, during re-verification of test setup conditions, a technician studied the process rack placards with more scrutiny and identified the jumper had been installed in the wrong process rack. The job was stopped and the control room was notified. The jumper was removed and the area inspected for damage, including an engineering evaluation for damaging effects. None was found.
 
The licensee entered the deficiency into their corrective action program as Condition Report 08-37168. FENOC performed a root cause evaluation, evaluated appropriate human performance contributors, and initiated corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
 
The adverse consequence of the jumper installation into the incorrect process rack would have caused a partial mis-alignment of the Quench Spray Chemical Additive System in the event of a Containment Phase 'B' isolation. If Quench Spray had been initiated, a portion of the 'B' train chemical injection flow would be diverted to the containment sump and not the spray header as designed. Because the 'B' train would not have been able to perform as designed, operators declared 'B' train of Quench Spray inoperable. This was an unplanned entry into Technical Specification 3.6.8 Condition A action statement.
 
Operations considered the 'B' train of Quench Spray to be inoperable for a period of seven hours and fifty minutes. The Technical Specification allowed outage time for one train of Quench Spray out of service is 72 hours. The jumpers were actually installed in the wrong process rack for a total time of approximately 30 minutes.
 
=====Analysis.=====
The failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure is considered a performance deficiency. Traditional enforcement does not apply because the issue did not have an actual safety consequence or potential for impacting the NRC's regulatory function, and it was not the result of any willful violation of NRC requi rements. The finding is greater than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the associated Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.
 
The significance of this finding was evaluated using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, "Phase I- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings". The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because there was no overall loss of system function due to system redundancy and the system would have been able to perform its required safety function for the applicable mission time during design basis events. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into FENOC's corrective action program, the violation is being treated as a non-cited violation.
 
The cause of this finding is related to the cross-cutting area of human performance, in that FENOC failed to utilize adequate self and peer checking dur ing the identification of equipment and circuits specified in the test plan [H.4(a)].  
 
=====Enforcement.=====
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, requires in part, that test activities are performed in accordance with written test procedures. Contrary to these requirements, FENOC failed to ensure test activities involving the battery rooms' exhaust fan were appropriately performed in accordance with the test plan, rendering the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System inoperable. Because this deficiency was considered of very low safety significance, and was entered into the corrective action program for resolution as CR 08-37168, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
 
(NCV 05000334/2008002-01, Incorrect Jumper Placement during Testing Renders Quench Spray Chemical Addition Inoperable.)
 
===.2 Semi-Annual Trend Review===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
(1 sample)
The inspectors reviewed site trending results for June through December 2007, to determine if trending was appropriately performed and evaluated by FENOC. This review covered the site trending program under FENOC's Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) process, and included a sample of self-assessments from the several organizations at Beaver Valley, such as BV-SA-08-014, "I&C Maintenance, 2007 IPA 2 nd 6Mos". This review verifies that existing trends were (1) appropriately captured and scoped by applicable departments, (2) consistent with the inspectors
= assessment from the daily CR and inspection module reviews (Section 40A2.1 and
 
===.3 ), and (3) not indicative of a more significant safety concern.===
Additionally, the inspectors verified the performance of site trending against NOP-LP-2001, Rev. 18, ACondition Report Process@, and NOBP-LP-2018, Rev. 03, AIntegrated Performance Assessment /Trending.
 
@  The inspectors also reviewed quarterly Quality Assurance reports and issues captured in the Activity Tracking database to identify issues and trends to evaluate during the inspection.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified. However, an adverse trend in human performance was identified, evident from previous IPAs as well as a review of condition reports and inspection findings over the course of the assessment period. This trend was also identified by the licensee's IPA process (e.g. IPA BV-SA-08-032, CR 07-25570, and CR 08-33463). Also of note, the licensee appropriately identified a weakness in the corrective action process, specifically with regard to the effectiveness of investigations for IPA-identified issues (CR 07-32032) and the quality of Full Apparent and Root Cause evaluations.
 
===.3 Annual Sample Review===
 
Annual Safety Culture Assessment
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
(1 sample)
The inspectors selected the 2007 annual Safety Culture Assessment (BV-PA-07-143)
 
and management assessment process for detailed review. This review utilized guidance contained in NOBP-LP-2501, Rev 8., "Safety Culture Assessment" and NOBP-LP-2502, Rev. 4, "Safety Culture Monitoring" and focused on the adequacy and appropriateness of corrective actions. The 2007 Safety Culture Report and 2007 safety conscious work environment (SCWE) surveys were reviewed for trends. The inspectors also attended various licensee discussions regarding the station culture assessment and development of corrective actions.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors noted that the overall statistical rating was high, indicating a positive safety culture. The licensee management team downgraded six of eight assessment areas based on group discussions in each area and noted areas for improvement. The overall assessment of station safety culture appeared to be consistent with inspector observations.
 
Issues identified were documented in condition reports.

$ Unit 2:  On January 19, 2008 , at 2:42 p.m., operators received an alarm and responded to an apparent failure of level control to the 22D moisture separator drain tank which resulted in a thermal power transient. Operators responded by stabilizing power at 99 percent by reducing main tu rbine load and inse rting control rods. The appropriate alarm response procedure was referenced. The cause of the control failure was determined to be due to a valve positioner failure. The valve positioner was repaired and the unit returned to full power two days later.

reduced turbine load and insert ed control rods to stabilize power at 99 percent. The cause of the lowering water level was due to condensate water being diverted to the turbine plant water storage tank by an automatic dump valve. The dump valve responded properly to a hotwell level transient caused by a malfunctioning circulating water vacuum priming valve on the 'B2' condenser waterbox. The malfunctioning valve failed open, resulting in the initial hotwell transient. The valve failed in a safe operating condition and the unit was returned to full power on February 21 after the transient was understood.

2OS1 Access Control to Radiologically Significant Areas (71121.01)
a. Inspection Scope (10 samples)  During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following
activities to verify that the licensee was properly implementing physical, administrative,
and engineering controls for access to locked high radiation areas, and other radiological
controlled areas (RCA) during power operations. Implementation of these controls was
reviewed against the criteria contained in
: [[10 CFR]] [[20, relevant]]
TS, and the licensee=s procedures. Plant Walkdown and Radiation Work Permits (RWP) Reviews
The inspectors toured accessible radiological controlled areas in Units 1 and 2, and with the assistance of a radiation protection technician, performed
independent radiation surveys of selected areas to confirm the accuracy of survey
data, and the adequacy of postings.
The inspectors identified an area in Unit 2 where radiological significant work was being performed. This area was the Unit 2 spent fuel pool transfer bridge, where
pre-operational checks were being performed. The inspectors interviewed the
worker performing the checks and reviewed the applicable RWP (208-2004) to
determine if the radiological controls were acceptable and if the dosimetry
setpoints were consistent with plant policy.
There were no significant dose gradients requiring relocation of dosimetry for the radiological significant job reviewed during this inspection. There were no current
radiation work permits for airborne radioactivity areas with the potential for
individual worker internal exposures of > 50 mrem.
During 2007, there were no internal dose assessments for any actual internal exposures that reached the reporting threshold of greater than 50 mrem
Committed Effective Dose Equivalent (CEDE). The inspectors also reviewed
data for the ten highest exposed individuals for 2007, and the dose/dose rate
alarm reports and determined that no exposure exceeded site administrative,
regulatory, or performance indicator criteria. Additionally, the inspectors
confirmed that no declared pregnant workers were employed during 2007. Problem Identification and Resolution    A review of a licensee's Integrated Performance Assessment, Radiation Protection (BVSA-08-029), was conducted to determine if identified problems
were entered into the corrective action program for resolution.
Nine (9) condition reports, associated with RCA access control, initiated between October 1, 2007 and February 28, 2008, were reviewed and discussed with the
licensee staff to determine if the follow-up activities were being conducted in an
effective and timely manner, commensurate with their safety significance.
Enclosure  High Radiation Area and Very High Radiation Area Controls
Nuclear Operating Procedures, related to high radiation area, and very high radiation area control, were reviewed, and implementation of these changes was
discussed with the Radiation Protection Manager and Nuclear Oversight
personnel.
Keys to locked high radiation areas (LHRA) located in Unit 1 and Unit 2 were inventoried and accessible
: [[LH]] [[]]
RAs were verified to be properly secured and
posted during plant tours. Radiation Worker and Radiation Protection Technician Performance
Several radiological-related condition reports were reviewed to evaluate if the incidents were caused by repetitive radiation worker errors and to determine if an
observable pattern traceable to a similar cause was evident.
Radiation Protection Technicians were questioned regarding their knowledge of plant radiological conditions and associated controls.

ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02)
a. Inspection Scope (9 samples)  During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities
to verify that the licensee was properly implementing operational, engineering, and
administrative controls to maintain personnel exposure as low as is reasonably achievable
(ALARA) for activities performed in 2007. Also reviewed were the dose controls for
current activities and the preparations to control dose during the spring Unit 2 (2R13)
refueling outage. Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria
contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable industry standards, and the licensee=s procedures. Radiological Work Planning
The inspectors reviewed pertinent information regarding cumulative exposure history, current exposure trends, and ongoing activities to assess 2007 site
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA performance, current (2008) exposure trends, and the challenges for the
spring 2008 Unit 2 (2R13) outage.
The inspectors reviewed the exposure status for tasks performed during the Unit 1 (1R18) fall 2007 outage and compared actual exposure with forecasted
estimates contained in
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA reviews. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the
1R18 post outage plan and minutes for the Station
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA Committee meetings
to determine if
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA measures were appropriately addressed for outage
activities that resulted in actual doses greater than originally forecasted.
The inspectors evaluated the departmental interfaces between radiation protection, operations, maintenance crafts, and engineering to identify missing
Enclosure
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA program elements and interface problems. The evaluation was accomplished by attending the daily management alignment meeting, a 2R13
Radiation Protection Readiness Review meeting and a Station
: [[ALA]] [[]]
RA
Committee (SAC) meeting (08-10), reviewing recent SAC meeting minutes and
the
: [[BV]] [[]]
PS Mid-Cycle Review report, and interviewing the station Radiation
Protection Manager. During the SAC, the inspectors evaluated challenge board
presentations for various 2R13 jobs including reactor shutdown/startup,
mechanical maintenance, and reactor coolant pump seal and motor
maintenance.
The inspectors reviewed
: [[ALARA]] [[Plans for the upcoming 2R13 outage including steam generator channel head work (]]
AP 08-2-21), reactor building sump
modification (AP 08-2-33), steam generator permanent platform installation (AP
08-2-20), and split pin replacement (AP 08-2-38). Verification of Dose Estimates
The inspectors reviewed the assumptions and basis for the annual site collective exposure projections. The inspector also reviewed individual and departmental
exposure data for activities performed in 2007, to evaluate the accuracy of past
dose projections.
The inspectors reviewed the licensee=s procedures associated with monitoring and re-evaluating dose estimates when the forecasted cumulative exposure for tasks was approached and the implementation of these procedures during the
Unit 1 fall 2007 outage. The inspectors reviewed the dose records for the ten
workers who received the highest doses for 2007 to confirm that no individual
exceeded the regulatory annual limit, administrative limits, or performance
indicator criteria. Past Jobs Performed
The inspectors reviewed the
: [[ALARA]] [[controls contained in various]]

4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution (71152 - 2 samples total) 
: [[contact::S. Baker Site]], Radiation Protection Manager
.1  Daily Review of Problem Identification and Resolution
a Inspection Scope  As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems,"
and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance
issues for followup, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC's corrective action program. This review was accomplished by reviewing
summary lists of each
: [[CR]] [[, attending screening meetings, and accessing]]
FENOC's
computerized CR database.
b. Findings  Introduction. A Green self-revealing, Non-Cited Violation of
: [[10 CFR]] [[50, Appendix B, Criterion]]
XI, "Test Control," was identified for the failure to properly perform line starter
testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with
the written test procedure. This error resulted in the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical
Additive System becoming inoperable. Description. On March 21, 2008, during activities to test the line starter to a safety-related battery exhaust fan, the test jumper was inadvertently placed on terminal points in
the wrong process rack. The testing was in support of Engineering Change Package
(ECP) 07-0002-40, which was being implemented to replace select Class 1E motor
control center components. The purpose of this phase of the ECP test plan was to test the battery rooms' exhaust
fan [2HVZ-FN216B] control circuit, overload protection, and the alarm logic circuit. The
plan required a jumper installation in process rack
: [[RK]] [[-2]]
SEC-PROC-B1, but was
inadvertently placed in rack
: [[RK]] [[-2]]
SEC-PROC-B. This jumper was necessary to simulate
the absence of a differential-pressure signal across fan
: [[2HVZ]] [[-]]
FN216A. Both process racks are located below the Unit 2 Control Room in the Control Building
707 foot level, however in different rooms. Each process rack has a white placard label
with its identification number. Also, there is a black placard that has a note for the
location of the expansion panel. The black placard acts as a cross-reference to the other
process rack, which added confusion to identifying the correct process rack. Once the incorrect rack was opened, the identification tag for the circuit to be jumpered
could not be observed due to obstruction by wires. To prevent disturbing other live
circuits, prints were used to identify the location to place the jumper, contrary to station
procedure
: [[NOBP]] [[-]]
LP-2603, "Event-Free Tools and Verification Practices."  The jumper
was installed into what was believed to be the correct location. After a repeat failure to obtain expected test results, during re-verification of test setup
conditions, a technician studied the process rack placards with more scrutiny and
identified the jumper had been installed in the wrong process rack. The job was stopped
Enclosure  and the control room was notified. The jumper was removed and the area inspected for damage, including an engineering evaluation for damaging effects. None was found.
The licensee entered the deficiency into their corrective action program as Condition
Report 08-37168.
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC performed a root cause evaluation, evaluated appropriate
human performance contributors, and initiated corrective actions to prevent recurrence. The adverse consequence of the jumper installation into the incorrect process rack would
have caused a partial mis-alignment of the Quench Spray Chemical Additive System in
the event of a Containment Phase 'B' isolation. If Quench Spray had been initiated, a
portion of the 'B' train chemical injection flow would be diverted to the containment sump
and not the spray header as designed. Because the 'B' train would not have been able
to perform as designed, operators declared 'B' train of Quench Spray inoperable. This
was an unplanned entry into Technical Specification 3.6.8 Condition A action statement.
Operations considered the 'B' train of Quench Spray to be inoperable for a period of
seven hours and fifty minutes. The Technical Specification allowed outage time for one
train of Quench Spray out of service is 72 hours. The jumpers were actually installed in
the wrong process rack for a total time of approximately 30 minutes. Analysis. The failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure is
considered a performance deficiency. Traditional enforcement does not apply because
the issue did not have an actual safety consequence or potential for impacting the NRC's
regulatory function, and it was not the result of any willful violation of NRC requirements. The finding is greater than minor because it affected the equipment performance
attribute of the associated Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the
availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The significance of this finding was evaluated using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04,
"Phase I- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings". The inspectors determined
that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because there was no
overall loss of system function due to system redundancy and the system would have
been able to perform its required safety function for the applicable mission time during
design basis events. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been
entered into
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC's corrective action program, the violation is being treated as a non-
cited violation. The cause of this finding is related to the cross-cutting area of human performance, in
that
: [[FENOC]] [[failed to utilize adequate self and peer checking during the identification of equipment and circuits specified in the test plan [H.4(a)]. Enforcement. 10]]
CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, requires in part, that test activities are performed in accordance with written test procedures. Contrary to these
requirements,
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC failed to ensure test activities involving the battery rooms' exhaust
fan were appropriately performed in accordance with the test plan, rendering the 'B' train
of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System inoperable. Because this deficiency was
considered of very low safety significance, and was entered into the corrective action
program for resolution as
: [[CR]] [[08-37168, this violation is being treated as an]]
NCV,
consistent with Section
: [[VI.A.]] [[1 of the]]
NRC Enforcement Policy.  (NCV 05000334/2008002-01, Incorrect Jumper Placement during Testing Renders Quench Spray Chemical Addition Inoperable.)
Enclosure  .2 Semi-Annual Trend Review
a. Inspection Scope (1 sample)  The inspectors reviewed site trending results for June through December 2007, to
determine if trending was appropriately performed and evaluated by
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC. This
review covered the site trending program under
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC's Integrated Performance
Assessment (IPA) process, and included a sample of self-assessments from the several
organizations at Beaver Valley, such as
: [[BV]] [[-]]
SA-08-014, "I&C Maintenance, 2007 IPA 2nd 6Mos". This review verifies that existing trends were (1) appropriately captured and
scoped by applicable departments, (2) consistent with the inspectors= assessment from the daily CR and inspection module reviews (Section 40A2.1 and .3), and (3) not indicative of a more significant safety concern. Additionally, the inspectors verified the
performance of site trending against
: [[NOP]] [[-]]
: [[LP]] [[-2001, Rev. 18,]]
: [[AC]] [[ondition Report Process@, and]]
NOBP-LP-2018, Rev. 03, AIntegrated Performance Assessment /Trending.@  The inspectors also reviewed quarterly Quality Assurance reports and issues captured in the Activity Tracking database to identify issues and trends to evaluate during the inspection.
b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. However, an adverse trend in human
performance was identified, evident from previous IPAs as well as a review of condition
reports and inspection findings over the course of the assessment period. This trend
was also identified by the licensee's
: [[IPA]] [[process (e.g.]]
: [[IPA]] [[]]
: [[BV]] [[-]]
SA-08-032, CR 07-25570,
and CR 08-33463). Also of note, the licensee appropriately identified a weakness in the
corrective action process, specifically with regard to the effectiveness of investigations for
: [[IPA]] [[-identified issues (]]
CR 07-32032) and the quality of Full Apparent and Root Cause
evaluations.   
.3 Annual Sample Review  Annual Safety Culture Assessment
a. Inspection Scope (1 sample)  The inspectors selected the 2007 annual Safety Culture Assessment (BV-PA-07-143)
and management assessment process for detailed review. This review utilized guidance contained in
: [[NOBP]] [[-]]
: [[LP]] [[-2501, Rev 8., "Safety Culture Assessment" and]]
: [[NOBP]] [[-]]
LP-2502,
Rev. 4, "Safety Culture Monitoring" and focused on the adequacy and appropriateness of
corrective actions. The 2007 Safety Culture Report and 2007 safety conscious work
environment (SCWE) surveys were reviewed for trends. The inspectors also attended
various licensee discussions regarding the station culture assessment and development
of corrective actions.
b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors noted that the overall
statistical rating was high, indicating a positive safety culture. The licensee management
team downgraded six of eight assessment areas based on group discussions in each
area and noted areas for improvement. The overall assessment of station safety culture
Enclosure  appeared to be consistent with inspector observations. Issues identified were documented in condition reports.
4OA3 Followup of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion (71153) 
.1 Review Personnel Performance during Non-Routine Operations
a. Inspection Scope (2 samples)  The inspectors reviewed two events that demonstrated personnel performance in coping
with non-routine evolutions and transients. The inspectors observed operations in the
control room and reviewed applicable operating and alarm response procedures, TSs,
plant process computer indications, and control room shift logs to evaluate the adequacy
of
: [[FEN]] [[]]
OC's response to these events. The inspectors also verified the events were
entered into the corrective action program to resolve identified adverse conditions.
Documents reviewed during the inspection are listed in the Attachment.  $ Unit 2:  On January 19, 2008, at 2:42 p.m., operators received an alarm and responded to an apparent failure of level control to the 22D moisture separator drain tank which resulted in a thermal power transient. Operators responded by
stabilizing power at 99 percent by reducing main turbine load and inserting control rods. The appropriate alarm response procedure was referenced. The cause of
the control failure was determined to be due to a valve positioner failure. The
valve positioner was repaired and the unit returned to full power two days later.
The inspectors verified safety and steady-state power limits were not exceeded.
This event was documented in the corrective action program as CR 08-33868. 
$ Unit 2: On February 20, 2008, at 3:30 a.m., operators identified lowering levels on all three steam generators from their program band. Level was 2 percent lower than expected and trending downward. Operators stabilized level and returned level to the normal band by manual control of the feedwater regulating
valves. The feedwater transient resulted in a thermal power transient. Operators
reduced turbine load and inserted control rods to stabilize power at 99 percent. The cause of the lowering water level was due to condensate water being
diverted to the turbine plant water storage tank by an automatic dump valve. The
dump valve responded properly to a hotwell level transient caused by a
malfunctioning circulating water vacuum priming valve on the 'B2' condenser
waterbox. The malfunctioning valve failed open, resulting in the initial hotwell
transient. The valve failed in a safe operating condition and the unit was returned
to full power on February 21 after the transient was understood. The inspectors
verified safety and steady-state power limits were not exceeded. This event was
documented in the corrective action program as CR 08-35615.
b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified.

UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 475 ALLENDALE ROAD KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-1415 May 8, 2008

Mr. Peter III Site Vice President FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company Beaver Valley Power Station Mail Stop A-BV-SEB1 Post Office Box 4 Shippingport, Pennsylvania 15077

SUBJECT: BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000334/2008002 AND 05000412/2008002

Dear Mr. Sena:

On March 31, 2008, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Beaver Valley Power Station Units 1 and 2. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on April 23, 2008, with you and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission

=s rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, this report documents one self-revealing finding of very low safety significance (Green). This finding was determined to involve a violation of NRC requirements. However, because of the very low safety significance and because the issue has been entered in the corrective action program, the NRC is treating the finding as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy

. If you contest the finding in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Beaver Valley.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, and its enclosures, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public ins pection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of

NRC=s document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). We appreciate your cooperation. Please contact me at 610-337-5200 if you have any questions regarding this letter.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

IR 05000334/2008002, IR 05000412/2008002; 01/01/2008 - 03/31/2008; Beaver Valley Power

Station, Units 1 & 2; Identification and Resolution of Problems

The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors, regional reactor inspectors, and a regional health physics inspector. One Green finding was identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, ASignificance Determination Process

@ (SDP). Findings for which the SDP does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC

=s program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, AReactor Oversight Process,@ Revision 3 dated July 2000.

A. NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

A self-revealing, Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI "Test Control," was identified for the failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure. The test procedure for the line starter establishes test conditions by installing jumpers into a process rack, RK-2SEC-PROC-B1. Due to misidentification, jumpers were installed into the incorrect process rack, RK-2SEC-PROC-B. This rendered the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System inoperable. The licensee entered the deficiency into their corrective action program as Condition Report 08-37168. FENOC performed a root cause evaluation, evaluated appropriate human performance contributors, and initiated corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

The finding is greater than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the associated Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1 worksheet, the finding was determined to have very low safety significance, because there was no overall loss of system function due to system redundancy and the system would have been able to perform its required safety function for the applicable mission time during design basis events.

The cause of this finding is related to the cross-cutting area of human performance, in that FENOC failed to utilize adequate self and peer checking dur ing the identification of equipment and circuits specified in the test plan H.4(a). (Section 4OA2.1)

B. Licensee-Identified Violations

None

REPORT DETAILS

RADIATION SAFETY

Cornerstone:

Occupational Radiation Safety

2OS1 Access Control to Radiologically Significant Areas (71121.01)

a. Inspection Scope

(10 samples)

During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities to verify that the licensee was properly implementing physical, administrative, and engineering controls for access to locked high radiation areas, and other radiological controlled areas (RCA) during power operations. Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, relevant TS, and the licensee

=s procedures.

Plant Walkdown and Radiation Work Permits (RWP) Reviews

The inspectors toured accessible radiological controlled areas in Units 1 and 2, and with the assistance of a radiation protection technician, performed independent radiation surveys of selected areas to confirm the accuracy of survey data, and the adequacy of postings.

The inspectors identified an area in Unit 2 where radiological significant work was being performed. This area was the Unit 2 spent fuel pool transfer bridge, where pre-operational checks were being performed. The inspectors interviewed the worker performing the checks and reviewed the applicable RWP (208-2004) to determine if the radiological controls were acceptable and if the dosimetry setpoints were consistent with plant policy.

There were no significant dose gradients requiring relocation of dosimetry for the radiological significant job reviewed during this inspection. There were no current radiation work permits for airborne radioactivity areas with the potential for individual worker internal exposures of > 50 mrem.

During 2007, there were no internal dose assessments for any actual internal exposures that reached the reporting threshold of greater than 50 mrem Committed Effective Dose Equivalent (CEDE). The inspectors also reviewed data for the ten highest exposed individuals for 2007, and the dose/dose rate alarm reports and determined that no exposure exceeded site administrative, regulatory, or performance indicator criteria. Additionally, the inspectors confirmed that no declared pregnant workers were employed during 2007.

Problem Identification and Resolution A review of a licensee's Integrated Performance Assessment, Radiation Protection (BVSA-08-029), was conducted to determine if identified problems were entered into the corrective action program for resolution.

Nine (9) condition reports, associated with RCA access control, initiated between October 1, 2007 and February 28, 2008, were reviewed and discussed with the licensee staff to determine if the follow-up activities were being conducted in an effective and timely manner, commensurate with their safety significance.

High Radiation Area and Very High Radiation Area Controls

Nuclear Operating Procedures, related to high radiation area, and very high radiation area control, were reviewed, and implementation of these changes was discussed with the Radiation Protection Manager and Nuclear Oversight personnel.

Keys to locked high radiation areas (LHRA) located in Unit 1 and Unit 2 were inventoried and accessible LHRAs were verified to be properly secured and posted during plant tours.

Radiation Worker and Radiation Protection Technician Performance

Several radiological-related condition reports were reviewed to evaluate if the incidents were caused by repetitive radiation worker errors and to determine if an observable pattern traceable to a similar cause was evident.

Radiation Protection Technicians were questioned regarding their knowledge of plant radiological conditions and associated controls.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

2OS2 ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02)

a. Inspection Scope

(9 samples)

During the period February 25 - 28, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities to verify that the licensee was properly implementing operational, engineering, and administrative controls to maintain personnel exposure as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) for activities performed in 2007. Also reviewed were the dose controls for current activities and the preparations to control dose during the spring Unit 2 (2R13)refueling outage. Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable industry standards, and the licensee

=s procedures.

Radiological Work Planning

The inspectors reviewed pertinent information regarding cumulative exposure history, current exposure trends, and ongoing activities to assess 2007 site ALARA performance, current (2008) exposure trends, and the challenges for the spring 2008 Unit 2 (2R13) outage.

The inspectors reviewed the exposure status for tasks performed during the Unit 1 (1R18) fall 2007 outage and compared actual exposure with forecasted estimates contained in ALARA reviews. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the

1R18 post outage plan and minutes for the Station ALARA Committee meetings

to determine if ALARA measures were appropriately addressed for outage activities that resulted in actual doses greater than originally forecasted.

The inspectors evaluated the departmental interfaces between radiation protection, operations, maintenance crafts, and engineering to identify missing ALARA program elements and interface problems. The evaluation was accomplished by attending the daily management alignment meeting, a 2R13 Radiation Protection Readiness Review meeting and a Station ALARA Committee (SAC) meeting (08-10), reviewing recent SAC meeting minutes and the BVPS Mid-Cycle Review report, and interviewing the station Radiation Protection Manager. During the SAC, the inspectors evaluated challenge board presentations for various 2R13 jobs including reactor shutdown/startup, mechanical maintenance, and reactor coolant pump seal and motor maintenance.

The inspectors reviewed ALARA Plans for the upcoming 2R13 outage including steam generator channel head work (AP 08-2-21), reactor building sump modification (AP 08-2-33), steam generator permanent platform installation (AP 08-2-20), and split pin replacement (AP 08-2-38).

Verification of Dose Estimates

The inspectors reviewed the assumptions and basis for the annual site collective exposure projections. The inspector also reviewed individual and departmental exposure data for activities performed in 2007, to evaluate the accuracy of past dose projections.

The inspectors reviewed the licensee

=s procedures associated with monitoring and re-evaluating dose estimates when the forecasted cumulative exposure for tasks was approached and the implementation of these procedures during the Unit 1 fall 2007 outage. The inspectors reviewed the dose records for the ten workers who received the highest doses for 2007 to confirm that no individual exceeded the regulatory annual limit, administrative limits, or performance indicator criteria.

Past Jobs Performed

The inspectors reviewed the ALARA controls contained in various RWP's and ALARA Plans (AP) for activities performed during 2008. Included in this review were Unit 1 containment entries to identify and correct valve leakage (RWP 108-1038/AP 08-1-07), spent resin transfers (RWP 108-1032/AP 08-1-02), 1CH-FL-2 filter change-out (RWP 108-1032/AP 08-1-03), in-core drive replacement (RWP 108-1039/AP08-1-08), and Unit 2 radwaste processing activities (RWP 208-2034

& 2035/AP08-2-04 &05).

Source Term Reduction and Control The inspectors reviewed the status and historical trends for the Unit 1 and Unit 2 source terms. Through review of survey maps and interviews with the Senior Nuclear Specialist-ALARA, the inspectors evaluated recent source term measurements and control strategies. Specific strategies being employed included zinc addition (Unit 1), chemistry controls for 2R13, system flushes, and temporary shielding.

Declared Pregnant Workers The inspectors determined that no declared pregnant workers (DPW) were employed during 2007.

Problem Identification and Resolution

The inspector reviewed elements of the licensee

=s corrective action program related to implementing the ALARA program to determine if problems were being entered into the program for timely resolution. Eight condition reports related to dose/dose rate alarms, programmatic dose challenges, and the effectiveness in

predicting and controlling worker dose were reviewed.

4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution (71152 - 2 samples total)

.1 Daily Review of Problem Identification and Resolution

a Inspection Scope As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems,"

and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for followup, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into FENOC's corrective action program. This review was accomplished by reviewing summary lists of each CR, attending screening meetings, and accessing FENOC's computerized CR database.

b. Findings

Introduction.

A Green self-revealing, Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control," was identified for the failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure. This error resulted in the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System becoming inoperable.

Description.

On March 21, 2008, during activities to test the line starter to a safety-related battery exhaust fan, the test jumper was inadvertently placed on terminal points in the wrong process rack. The testing was in support of Engineering Change Package (ECP) 07-0002-40, which was being implemented to replace select Class 1E motor control center components.

The purpose of this phase of the ECP test plan was to test the battery rooms' exhaust fan [2HVZ-FN216B] control circuit, overload protection, and the alarm logic circuit. The plan required a jumper installation in process rack RK-2SEC-PROC-B1, but was inadvertently placed in rack RK-2SEC-PROC-B. This jumper was necessary to simulate the absence of a differential-pressure signal across fan 2HVZ-FN216A.

Both process racks are located below the Unit 2 Control Room in the Control Building 707 foot level, however in different rooms. Each process rack has a white placard label with its identification number. Also, there is a black placard that has a note for the location of the expansion panel. The black placard acts as a cross-reference to the other process rack, which added confusion to identifying the correct process rack.

Once the incorrect rack was opened, the identification tag for the circuit to be jumpered could not be observed due to obstruction by wires. To prevent disturbing other live circuits, prints were used to identify the location to place the jumper, contrary to station procedure NOBP-LP-2603, "Event-Free Tools and Verification Practices." The jumper was installed into what was believed to be the correct location.

After a repeat failure to obtain expected test results, during re-verification of test setup conditions, a technician studied the process rack placards with more scrutiny and identified the jumper had been installed in the wrong process rack. The job was stopped and the control room was notified. The jumper was removed and the area inspected for damage, including an engineering evaluation for damaging effects. None was found.

The licensee entered the deficiency into their corrective action program as Condition Report 08-37168. FENOC performed a root cause evaluation, evaluated appropriate human performance contributors, and initiated corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

The adverse consequence of the jumper installation into the incorrect process rack would have caused a partial mis-alignment of the Quench Spray Chemical Additive System in the event of a Containment Phase 'B' isolation. If Quench Spray had been initiated, a portion of the 'B' train chemical injection flow would be diverted to the containment sump and not the spray header as designed. Because the 'B' train would not have been able to perform as designed, operators declared 'B' train of Quench Spray inoperable. This was an unplanned entry into Technical Specification 3.6.8 Condition A action statement.

Operations considered the 'B' train of Quench Spray to be inoperable for a period of seven hours and fifty minutes. The Technical Specification allowed outage time for one train of Quench Spray out of service is 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. The jumpers were actually installed in the wrong process rack for a total time of approximately 30 minutes.

Analysis.

The failure to properly perform line starter testing for a Unit 2 safety-related battery exhaust fan (2HVZ-FN216B) in accordance with the written test procedure is considered a performance deficiency. Traditional enforcement does not apply because the issue did not have an actual safety consequence or potential for impacting the NRC's regulatory function, and it was not the result of any willful violation of NRC requi rements. The finding is greater than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the associated Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.

The significance of this finding was evaluated using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, "Phase I- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings". The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because there was no overall loss of system function due to system redundancy and the system would have been able to perform its required safety function for the applicable mission time during design basis events. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into FENOC's corrective action program, the violation is being treated as a non-cited violation.

The cause of this finding is related to the cross-cutting area of human performance, in that FENOC failed to utilize adequate self and peer checking dur ing the identification of equipment and circuits specified in the test plan H.4(a).

Enforcement.

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, requires in part, that test activities are performed in accordance with written test procedures. Contrary to these requirements, FENOC failed to ensure test activities involving the battery rooms' exhaust fan were appropriately performed in accordance with the test plan, rendering the 'B' train of Quench Spray Chemical Additive System inoperable. Because this deficiency was considered of very low safety significance, and was entered into the corrective action program for resolution as CR 08-37168, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

.2 Semi-Annual Trend Review

a. Inspection Scope

(1 sample)

The inspectors reviewed site trending results for June through December 2007, to determine if trending was appropriately performed and evaluated by FENOC. This review covered the site trending program under FENOC's Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) process, and included a sample of self-assessments from the several organizations at Beaver Valley, such as BV-SA-08-014, "I&C Maintenance, 2007 IPA 2 nd 6Mos". This review verifies that existing trends were (1) appropriately captured and scoped by applicable departments, (2) consistent with the inspectors

= assessment from the daily CR and inspection module reviews (Section 40A2.1 and

.3 ), and (3) not indicative of a more significant safety concern.

Additionally, the inspectors verified the performance of site trending against NOP-LP-2001, Rev. 18, ACondition Report Process@, and NOBP-LP-2018, Rev. 03, AIntegrated Performance Assessment /Trending.

@ The inspectors also reviewed quarterly Quality Assurance reports and issues captured in the Activity Tracking database to identify issues and trends to evaluate during the inspection.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified. However, an adverse trend in human performance was identified, evident from previous IPAs as well as a review of condition reports and inspection findings over the course of the assessment period. This trend was also identified by the licensee's IPA process (e.g. IPA BV-SA-08-032, CR 07-25570, and CR 08-33463). Also of note, the licensee appropriately identified a weakness in the corrective action process, specifically with regard to the effectiveness of investigations for IPA-identified issues (CR 07-32032) and the quality of Full Apparent and Root Cause evaluations.

.3 Annual Sample Review

Annual Safety Culture Assessment

a. Inspection Scope

(1 sample)

The inspectors selected the 2007 annual Safety Culture Assessment (BV-PA-07-143)

and management assessment process for detailed review. This review utilized guidance contained in NOBP-LP-2501, Rev 8., "Safety Culture Assessment" and NOBP-LP-2502, Rev. 4, "Safety Culture Monitoring" and focused on the adequacy and appropriateness of corrective actions. The 2007 Safety Culture Report and 2007 safety conscious work environment (SCWE) surveys were reviewed for trends. The inspectors also attended various licensee discussions regarding the station culture assessment and development of corrective actions.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors noted that the overall statistical rating was high, indicating a positive safety culture. The licensee management team downgraded six of eight assessment areas based on group discussions in each area and noted areas for improvement. The overall assessment of station safety culture appeared to be consistent with inspector observations.

Issues identified were documented in condition reports.

4OA3 Followup of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

.1 Review Personnel Performance during Non-Routine Operations

a. Inspection Scope

(2 samples)

The inspectors reviewed two events that demonstrated personnel performance in coping with non-routine evolutions and transients. The inspectors observed operations in the control room and reviewed applicable operating and alarm response procedures, TSs, plant process computer indications, and control room shift logs to evaluate the adequacy of FENOC's response to these events. The inspectors also verified the events were entered into the corrective action program to resolve identified adverse conditions.

Documents reviewed during the inspection are listed in the Attachment.

$ Unit 2: On January 19, 2008 , at 2:42 p.m., operators received an alarm and responded to an apparent failure of level control to the 22D moisture separator drain tank which resulted in a thermal power transient. Operators responded by stabilizing power at 99 percent by reducing main tu rbine load and inse rting control rods. The appropriate alarm response procedure was referenced. The cause of the control failure was determined to be due to a valve positioner failure. The valve positioner was repaired and the unit returned to full power two days later.

The inspectors verified safety and steady-state power limits were not exceeded.

This event was documented in the corrective action program as CR 08-33868.

$ Unit 2: On February 20, 2008 , at 3:30 a.m., operators identified lowering levels on all three steam generators from their program band. Level was 2 percent lower than expected and trending downward. Operators stabilized level and returned level to the normal band by manual control of the feedwater regulating valves. The feedwater transient resulted in a thermal power transient. Operators

reduced turbine load and insert ed control rods to stabilize power at 99 percent. The cause of the lowering water level was due to condensate water being diverted to the turbine plant water storage tank by an automatic dump valve. The dump valve responded properly to a hotwell level transient caused by a malfunctioning circulating water vacuum priming valve on the 'B2' condenser waterbox. The malfunctioning valve failed open, resulting in the initial hotwell transient. The valve failed in a safe operating condition and the unit was returned to full power on February 21 after the transient was understood. The inspectors verified safety and steady-state power limits were not exceeded. This event was documented in the corrective action program as CR 08-35615.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.
