71111.15 A Green finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," was self-revealed when the licensee failed to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality associated with the 'B' control structure chiller, which rendered the 'B'
control structure chiller inoperable. Description:  The control structure chilled water system provides chilled water to the cooling coils located in the control room, control structure, the computer room, and the Unit 1 emergency switchgear room cooling air handling units. The control structure chillers normally
transfers heat to the non-safety-related service water system, and during emergency plant
operation heat is transferred to the ESW system.
On April 12, 2018, the station was performing required technical surveillance testing to verify
that the appropriate loads tripped and appropriately sequenced back onto the diesel
generators following a LOOP in combination with a LOCA initiation signal. During this testing,
the 'B' control structure chiller is required to be operating in normal mode prior to the initiation
of the test, will load shed during the initiation, and will restart in emergency mode following an appropriate time delay. When the LOOP/LOCA signal was initiated, the 'B' control structure chiller tripped as expected and restarted in emergency mode after the appropriate time delay.
Seven minutes after the start of the 'B' control structure chiller, it tripped on low refrigerant
temperature. The 'A' control structure chiller automatically started and remained running in normal mode as expected for this test.


The inspectors determined that it was not reasonable to foresee or correct the cause discussed in the LER, and therefore no performance deficiency was identified. The inspectors also concluded that no violation of NRC requirements occurred.

71124.01 A Green finding and associated NCV of TS 5.7, "High Radiation Area," was self-revealed when two plant workers entered a posted high radiation area and one worker's electronic
dosimeter alarmed on dose rate. The workers had not been briefed for entry into this area. Description:  On the April 18, 2018, night shift, during the Unit 1 refueling and maintenance outage, five contract workers were tasked with demobilizing an area of the plant where
replacement of the 'A' recirculation pump had taken place. Part of the area was inside the
Unit 1 drywell, a posted high radiation area with dose rates in excess of 100 millirem per hour (100mR/hr) measured 30 centimeters from the source of radiation. The remaining work area was posted as a radiation area, and was located just outside the drywell equipment hatch. All
workers were assigned to work under Radiation Work Permit 2018-1324. Three of the
workers would be inside the drywell and were briefed for a high radiation area entry, while the
other two would be located just outside the drywell equipment hatch, in the reactor building, and therefore not briefed for a high radiation area entry. These two workers were placed on Radiation Work Permit 2018-1324, Task 1, a non-h
igh radiation area task, with set points of 15 millirem accumulated dose and 35 mR/hr dose rate. 


Disposition:  This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
At approximately 2200 hours, all five members of the work crew left their work area on a
scheduled break. The two workers outside the drywell had previously been instructed to contact the radiation protection staff for assistance in leaving their work area, as it was not located at a normal egress point. Erroneously, these two workers joined their three co-
workers by crossing the high radiation boundary and entering the drywell, then traversing the
drywell to the drywell egress point. While walking through the drywell, one of the two outside
workers received a dose rate alarm when he walked through a 51.6 mR/hr field.
Corrective Actions:  The radiation protection staff responded to the dose rate alarm, debriefed
the workers, identified the likely location and source of the radiation field that led to the dose
rate alarm, and restricted the workers' access to the radiologically controlled area.

In 2015 (CR-2015-17837), a structural monitoring program inspection identified that the degradation continued to become more severe. In 2016 (CR-2016-18922), it was determined that the repair method could not be implemented as planned due to the continuous degradation of the concrete. In May 2018, inspectors questioned the justification for not correcting the degraded condition in the past operating cycle. While the station had an active adverse condition monitoring plan and had been performing structural inspections as their plan had required, the condition had not been tracked as an operable but degraded condition and thus justification was not documented for its deferral past the operating cycle (CR-2018-07884).

Performance Assessment:
Disposition:  This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the
Performance Deficiency:  Not promptly performing corrective actions for operable but
degraded or operable but nonconforming conditions at the first available opportunity unless
justified and documented is a performance deficiency.
Screening:  The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor
because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety
concern. This performance deficiency is also similar to IMC 0612, Appendix E, Example 3.j in
that significant programmatic deficiencies were identified with the issue that could lead to
worse errors if uncorrected. Specifically inspectors identified numerous examples of inadequate justifications for extending corrective actions associated with degraded or nonconforming conditions. The inspectors determined this indicated a programmatic
deficiency with how the station justified extending these actions.
Significance:  The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix  
: [[contact::A. Since in all the identified examples Susquehanna was able to justify continued operability of the system]], structure, or component, inspectors determined the finding did not
represent an actual loss of function of any of these structures, systems, or components and therefore was of very low safety significance (Green).
Cross-Cutting Aspect:  The finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Problem Identification and Resolution - Resolution (P.3) in that the organization did not take effective corrective actions
to address issues in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, numerous conditions adverse to quality were not corrected at the first available
opportunity without appropriate justification for their extension beyond the refueling cycle.
Enforcement:
Violation:  TS 5.4.1, "Procedures," requires that written procedures be implemented for activities listed in RG 1.33, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation)," Appendix A, Revision 2. RG 1.33 requires implementing procedures for the control of maintenance,
repair, replacement, and modification work. Susquehanna's implementing procedure NDAP-
QA-0703, "Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments," Sections 5.5 and 5.6
state, in part, that actions to restore operable but nonconforming or operable but degraded conditions are "normally expected at the first available opportunity and within the current operating cycle, unless justified and documented otherwise."  


Contrary to the above, Susquehanna did not adequately implement procedures as required to
restore operable but nonconforming or operable but degraded conditions at the first available
opportunity and did not appropriately justify and document their extension beyond the current operating cycle.
Disposition:  This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the

The licensee conducted a past operability review of the condition, and the engineering evaluation determined that the unrestrained equipment was not susceptible to tipping, but was susceptible to sliding. Engineering calculations determined the equipment would have slid less than an inch in a seismic event, and therefore there was no effect on past operability of the swing bus switchgear.

SUBJECT: SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000387/2018002 AND 05000388/2018002

Dear Mr. Rausch:

On June 30, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES), Units 1 and 2. On July 26, 2018, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff.

The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.

NRC inspectors documented three findings of very low safety significance (Green) in this report. All of these findings involved violations of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

Separately, a violation involving a failure to set secondary containment during operations with a potential for draining the reactor vessel (OPDRVs) was identified during the Unit 1 refueling outage. Specifically, from April 2, 2018, to April 24, 2018, while all other technical specifications (TSs) were met, Susquehanna conducted several OPDRVs without establishing secondary containment operability, which was a violation of TS 3.6.4.1, "Secondary Containment." NRC issued Enforcement Guidance Memorandum (EGM) 11- 003, "EGM on Dispositioning Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) Licensee Noncompliance with TS Containment Requirements during Operations with a Potential for Draining the Reactor Vessel," on October 4, 2011, allowing for the exercise of enforcement discretion fo r such OPDRV-related TS violations, when certain criteria are met. The EGM, which was revised on January 15, 2016, also required that licensees receiving discretion must submit a license amendment request (LAR) to accept the NRC's generic change to the standard TS t hat will allow a graded approach to OPDRV requirements. The LAR was required to have been submitted and accepted for review by December 20, 2017, in order to continue receiving enforcement discretion while the LAR is

being reviewed. By letter dated September 20, 2017, Susquehanna submitted the required LAR (ADAMS Accession No. ML17265A434). Because the NRC has determined the licensee has met all criteria, enforcement discretion was previously authorized for the site in EA-17-089, and the violations occurred during the period while the LAR described in the EGM was under NRC review, the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion and will not issue enforcement action for these violations. If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at SSES. In addition, if you disagree with a cross-

cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC, 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I, and the NRC Resident Inspector at SSES.

This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection

PLANT STATUS

Unit 1 began the inspection period shutdown in Mode 4 for a planned refueling outage, and reached Mode 5 later the same day. Following the completion of refueling and maintenance activities, operators commenced a reactor startup on April 30, 2018, and achieved full power on

May 10, 2018. On May 11, 2018, operators reduced power to approximately 57 percent to

perform a rod pattern adjustment. Full power was achieved again on May 14, 2018. On

May 18, 2018, operators reduced power to approximately 59 percent to perform a rod pattern

adjustment. On May 20, 2018, power was raised to 96 percent and held for a preconditioning hold. On May 21, 2018, operators reduced power to approximately 73 percent to perform a rod pattern adjustment. On May 22, 2018, power was raised to 98 percent and held for a

preconditioning hold. Unit 1 reached 100 percent on June 4, 2018, and remained at or near 100

percent power for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. On May 10, 2018, operators reduced power to approximately 85 percent to perform a rod pattern adjustment and a condenser

waterbox cleaning. Operators returned the unit to 100 percent on May 13, 2018, and remained

at or near 100 percent power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with

their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, "Light-Water Reactor Inspection

Program - Operations Phase."

The inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515, Appendix D, "Plant Status," and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, "Problem

Identification and Resolution." The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess Susquehanna's performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and

standards.

RADIATION SAFETY

71124.01 - Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Controls

Radiological Hazard Assessment (1 Sample)

The inspectors conducted independent radiation measurements during walkdowns of the facility and reviewed the radiological survey program, air sampling and analysis, continuous

air monitor use, recent plant radiation surveys for radiological work activities, and any changes to plant operations since the last inspection to verify survey adequacy of any new radiological hazards for onsite workers or members of the public.

Instructions to Workers (1 Sample)

The inspectors reviewed high radiation area work permit controls and use, and observed

containers of radioactive materials and assessed whether the containers were labeled and

controlled in accordance with requirements.

The inspectors reviewed several occurrences where a worker's electronic personal

dosimeter alarmed. The inspectors verified follow-up investigations of actual radiological

conditions for unexpected radiological hazards were performed.

Radiological Hazards Control and Work Coverage (1 Sample)

The inspectors evaluated in-plant radiological conditions and performed independent

radiation measurements during facility walkdowns and observation of radiological work

activities. The inspectors examined the physical controls for selected high radiation areas,

locked high radiation areas, and very high radiation areas to verify conformance with the occupational performance indicator.

Contamination and Radioactive Material Control (1 Sample)

The inspectors observed the monitoring of potentially contaminated material leaving the

radiological controlled area and inspected the methods and radiation monitoring

instrumentation used for control, survey, and release of that material.

71124.02 - Occupational As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) Planning and Controls

Implementation of ALARA and Radiological Work Control (1 sample)

The inspectors reviewed radiological work controls and ALARA practices during the observation of in-plant work activities. The inspectors verified use of shielding, contamination controls, airborne controls, radiation work permit controls, and other work

controls were consistent with ALARA plans and that work-in-progress reviews were

performed in a timely manner.

Radiation Worker Performance (1 sample)

The inspectors observed radiation worker and radiation protection technician performance

during radiological work to evaluate worker ALARA performance according to specified work controls and procedures. Workers were interviewed to assess their knowledge and

awareness of planned and/or implemented radiological and ALARA work controls.

71153 - Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

Licensee Event Reports (3 Samples)

The inspectors evaluated the following licensee event reports (LERs):

(1) LER 05000388;387/2017-009-00, Secondary Containment Declared Inoperable Due to Trip of Zone II Equipment Exhaust Fan (ADAMS Accession No. ML17319A056).

The inspectors determined that it was not reasonable to foresee or correct the cause discussed in the LER, and therefore no performance deficiency was identified. The inspectors also concluded that no violation of NRC requirements occurred.

(2) LER 05000388;387/2017-009-01, Secondary Containment Declared Inoperable Due to Trip of Zone II Equipment Exhaust Fan (ADAMS Accession No. ML18046A861). The inspectors determined that it was not reasonable to foresee or correct the cause discussed in the LER, and therefore no performance deficiency was identified. The

inspectors also concluded that no violation of NRC requirements occurred.

(3) LER 05000387/2018-001-00, Implementation of Enforcement Guidance Memorandum (EGM) 11-003, Revision 3, during Unit 1 Refueling (ADAMS Accession No. ML18144A818). The circumstance surrounding this LER are

documented in the Inspection Results section of this report.

71111.15 A Green finding and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," was self-revealed when the licensee failed to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality associated with the 'B' control structure chiller, which rendered the 'B'

control structure chiller inoperable. Description: The control structure chilled water system provides chilled water to the cooling coils located in the control room, control structure, the computer room, and the Unit 1 emergency switchgear room cooling air handling units. The control structure chillers normally

transfers heat to the non-safety-related service water system, and during emergency plant

operation heat is transferred to the ESW system.

On April 12, 2018, the station was performing required technical surveillance testing to verify

that the appropriate loads tripped and appropriately sequenced back onto the diesel

generators following a LOOP in combination with a LOCA initiation signal. During this testing,

the 'B' control structure chiller is required to be operating in normal mode prior to the initiation

of the test, will load shed during the initiation, and will restart in emergency mode following an appropriate time delay. When the LOOP/LOCA signal was initiated, the 'B' control structure chiller tripped as expected and restarted in emergency mode after the appropriate time delay.

Seven minutes after the start of the 'B' control structure chiller, it tripped on low refrigerant

temperature. The 'A' control structure chiller automatically started and remained running in normal mode as expected for this test.

Investigation revealed that there was not a sufficient amount of refrigerant in the 'B' control

structure chiller. Refrigerant was added and post maintenance testing on the 'B' control structure chiller was successfully performed on April 13, 2018.

A review of the CAP revealed that previous refrigerant leak checks had noted leaks on the

chiller that had not been corrected dating back to December 2016. Repairs had been

scheduled for the November 2017 work window which was subsequently cancelled. Inspectors reviewed the 24-month comprehensive flow verification for the 'B' control structure chiller which was performed in February 2018 as well as the engineering evaluation

performed under AR-2018-08706 and determined that a reasonable justification existed that

the 'B' control structure chiller was operable through at least March 12, 2018, and thus, was

not inoperable for longer than the allowed outage time for TS 3.7.4 of 30 days.

Corrective Action: Refrigerant was added to the 'B' control structure chiller under Work Order 2168129 and repairs to fix the known leaks are scheduled for August 2018.

Corrective Action References: CR-2018-05832, CR-2018-08440, CR-2017-17906, CR-2017-

07722, CR-2016-28045

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Not promptly performing corrective actions for identified leaks associated with the 'B' control structure chiller is a performance deficiency.

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

because it adversely affected the Equipment Performance attribute of the Reactor Safety-Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely effected the capability of systems to respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A. The inspectors determined that this finding was a deficiency that did not

represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than the TS allowed outage time. Therefore, the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green).

Cross-Cutting Aspect: This finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance - Work

Management (H.5), since the organization did not implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. Specifically, known leaks were identified on the 'B' control structure chiller but were not

corrected in a timely manner before the

operability of the chiller was challenged.

Enforcement:

Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI requires measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality, such as failures, malfunctions, deficiencies,

deviations, defective material and equipment, and nonconformances are promptly identified and corrected.

Contrary to the above, from December 2016 to present, the licensee had not taken action to repair known refrigerant leaks on the 'B' control structure chiller.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the

Enforcement Policy.

Inadequate Procedure Adherence to Radiation Protection Requirements Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Occupational

Radiation Safety GREEN NCV 05000387/2018-002-02

Closed H.8 - Procedure

Adherence

71124.01 A Green finding and associated NCV of TS 5.7, "High Radiation Area," was self-revealed when two plant workers entered a posted high radiation area and one worker's electronic

dosimeter alarmed on dose rate. The workers had not been briefed for entry into this area. Description: On the April 18, 2018, night shift, during the Unit 1 refueling and maintenance outage, five contract workers were tasked with demobilizing an area of the plant where

replacement of the 'A' recirculation pump had taken place. Part of the area was inside the

Unit 1 drywell, a posted high radiation area with dose rates in excess of 100 millirem per hour (100mR/hr) measured 30 centimeters from the source of radiation. The remaining work area was posted as a radiation area, and was located just outside the drywell equipment hatch. All

workers were assigned to work under Radiation Work Permit 2018-1324. Three of the

workers would be inside the drywell and were briefed for a high radiation area entry, while the

other two would be located just outside the drywell equipment hatch, in the reactor building, and therefore not briefed for a high radiation area entry. These two workers were placed on Radiation Work Permit 2018-1324, Task 1, a non-h

igh radiation area task, with set points of 15 millirem accumulated dose and 35 mR/hr dose rate.

At approximately 2200 hours0.0255 days <br />0.611 hours <br />0.00364 weeks <br />8.371e-4 months <br />, all five members of the work crew left their work area on a

scheduled break. The two workers outside the drywell had previously been instructed to contact the radiation protection staff for assistance in leaving their work area, as it was not located at a normal egress point. Erroneously, these two workers joined their three co-

workers by crossing the high radiation boundary and entering the drywell, then traversing the

drywell to the drywell egress point. While walking through the drywell, one of the two outside

workers received a dose rate alarm when he walked through a 51.6 mR/hr field.

Corrective Actions: The radiation protection staff responded to the dose rate alarm, debriefed

the workers, identified the likely location and source of the radiation field that led to the dose

rate alarm, and restricted the workers' access to the radiologically controlled area.

Corrective Action Reference: CR-2018-06304

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Unit 1 TS 5.7.1.e requires that workers entering a high radiation area are knowledgeable of the dose rates in their work area. The two workers outside the

equipment hatch were not briefed for work inside the drywell, a posted high radiation area.

Screening:

The finding was determined to be more than minor based on similarity to Example 6.h in IMC 0612, Appendix E, and it is associated with Human Performance attribute of the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to

ensure adequate protection of the worker health and safety from exposure to radiation from radioactive material during routine civilian nuclear reactor operation.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix C, "Occupational Radiation Safety SDP," dated August 19, 2008, and determined

that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve: (1)

ALARA occupational collective exposure planning and controls, (2) an overexposure, (3) a

substantial potential for overexposure, or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: This finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance -

Procedure Adherence, since the individuals did not follow processes, procedures, and work

instructions (H.8). Specifically, the workers failed to follow pre-job work instructions for exiting

their work area.

Enforcement:

Violation: TS 5.7.1.e requires that entry into a high radiation area be authorized only after radiological conditions in the work area have been determined and personnel are briefed on

these conditions.

Contrary to the above, on April 18, 2018, two contract workers entered a high radiation area while signed in on Radiation Work Permit 2018-1324, Task 1 that did not authorize entry to a high radiation area and the workers had not been briefed on the radiological conditions in the high radiation area.

Disposition:

This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the

Enforcement Policy.

NCV 05000387/2018-002-03

Closed P.3 - Problem Identification

and Resolution

71152 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated NCV of TS 5.4.1, "Procedures," when the licensee failed to promptly correct numerous operable but nonconforming or degraded safety-related components Description: TS 5.4.1, "Procedures," requires that written procedures be implemented for activities listed in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation)," Appendix A, Revision 2. RG 1.33 requires implementing procedures for the

control of maintenance, repair, replacement, and modification work. Susquehanna's

implementing procedure NDAP-QA-0703, "Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments," Sections 5.5 and 5.6 state, in part, that actions to restore operable but nonconforming or operable but degraded conditions are "normally expected at the first available opportunity and within the current operating cycle, unless justified and documented

otherwise."

The inspectors identified six examples of nonconforming or degraded safety-related

components that Susquehanna had failed to promptly correct or provide adequate justification for their deferral beyond the operating cycle as required by NDAP-QA-0703:

1. Safety-related penetration X-56-1-40 located at the Engineered Safeguards Service Water pumphouse which was identified in August 2012 (CR-1606132) as degraded.

Justification to extend beyond the current operating cycle, which ended in May 2018,

was based on the assessment that piping needed to be excavated to perform the

penetration repairs. No additional justification was provided.

2. Safety-related exhaust plenum concrete missile barrier for 'A', 'B', 'C', and 'D' EDGs was identified in August 2012 (CR-1604923) as having major spalling on the

underside of the concrete beam. In 2015 (CR-2015-17837), a structural monitoring

program inspection identified that the degradation continued to become more severe. In 2016 (CR-2016-18922), it was determined that the repair method could not be implemented as planned due to the continuous degradation of the concrete. In May

2018, inspectors questioned the justification for not correcting the degraded condition

in the past operating cycle. While the station had an active adverse condition

monitoring plan and had been performing structural inspections as their plan had

required, the condition had not been tracked as an operable but degraded condition and thus justification was not documented for its deferral past the operating cycle (CR-2018-07884). No additional justification was provided.

3. In September 2015, an operable but degraded condition was identified associated with the dynamic qualification of four 480VAC load centers (CR-2015-24182). While the three load centers on Unit 1 were restored to their full dynamic qualification, the load center on Unit 2 was not prior to the end of the Unit 2 refueling outage in March

2017. The justification for not correcting the operable but degraded condition was that

the repairs were rescheduled to align with the next divisional outage in 2019.

4. In October 2016, an operable but nonconforming condition was identified when it was discovered that a failure of the non-safety-related reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC)

system barometric condenser vacuum pump, vacuum tank, and relief valve would prevent the safety-related RCIC lube oil pump from receiving its design basis cooling

water flow and would adversely impact RCIC operation (CR-2016-23615). Corrective

actions were developed to replace the non-Q quality relief valve with a Q quality relief valve. The due date assigned to generate the engineering change package has been extended six times from the original due date of November 2017. The justification for

extending correcting the condition was that the engineering change has not been

completed and the work can be done online. No additional justification was provided.

5. In August 2017, an operable but nonconforming condition was identified associated with the safety-related 'A' control structure chiller in that a non-Q quality blank flange was installed on a Q application (CR-2017-14738). The engineering change was

completed in October 2017 but was not implemented. The justification for extending

correcting the condition was that the work required a chiller outage and that the work

can be done online. No additional justification was provided.

6. In January 2018, an operable but degraded condition was identified associated with an ASME Section III Class 2 piping support

for the Unit 1 Loop 'B' RHR system (CR-2018-01164). The justification documented for not completing the repairs prior to the

end of the refueling outage in April 2018 was that a design review and revision to the drawings were required to support the necessary work, and that work can be done online. Upon further questioning by the inspectors, the time frame required for the

design work was deemed reasonable based upon structural modifications that need to

Corrective Action References: CR-1606132, CR-1604923, CR-2015-17837, CR-2015-24182, CR-2016-18922, CR-2016-23615, CR-2018-01164

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Not promptly performing corrective actions for operable but

degraded or operable but nonconforming conditions at the first available opportunity unless

justified and documented is a performance deficiency.

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

because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety

concern. This performance deficiency is also similar to IMC 0612, Appendix E, Example 3.j in

that significant programmatic deficiencies were identified with the issue that could lead to

worse errors if uncorrected. Specifically inspectors identified numerous examples of inadequate justifications for extending corrective actions associated with degraded or nonconforming conditions. The inspectors determined this indicated a programmatic

deficiency with how the station justified extending these actions.

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

A. Since in all the identified examples Susquehanna was able to justify continued operability of the system, structure, or component, inspectors determined the finding did not

represent an actual loss of function of any of these structures, systems, or components and therefore was of very low safety significance (Green).

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Problem Identification and Resolution - Resolution (P.3) in that the organization did not take effective corrective actions

to address issues in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, numerous conditions adverse to quality were not corrected at the first available

opportunity without appropriate justification for their extension beyond the refueling cycle.

Enforcement:

Violation: TS 5.4.1, "Procedures," requires that written procedures be implemented for activities listed in RG 1.33, "Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation)," Appendix A, Revision 2. RG 1.33 requires implementing procedures for the control of maintenance,

repair, replacement, and modification work. Susquehanna's implementing procedure NDAP-

QA-0703, "Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments," Sections 5.5 and 5.6

state, in part, that actions to restore operable but nonconforming or operable but degraded conditions are "normally expected at the first available opportunity and within the current operating cycle, unless justified and documented otherwise."

Contrary to the above, Susquehanna did not adequately implement procedures as required to

restore operable but nonconforming or operable but degraded conditions at the first available

opportunity and did not appropriately justify and document their extension beyond the current operating cycle.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the

Enforcement Policy.

Enforcement Discretion

Enforcement Action (EA)-18-089:

EGM on Dispositioning BWR Licensee Noncompliance With TS Containment Requirements

During Operations With A Potential For Draining The Reactor

Vessel (EGM-11-03)

71153 Description: From April 2 through April 24, 2018, Susquehanna performed OPDRVs without establishing secondary containment integrity. An OPDRV is an activity that could result in the

draining or siphoning of the reactor pressure vessel water level below the top of fuel, without crediting the use of mitigating measures to terminate the uncovering of fuel. TS 3.6.4.1, "Secondary Containment," requires that secondary containment be operable, and is applicable

during OPDRVs. The required action for this specification if secondary containment is

inoperable in this condition of applicability is to initiate actions to suspend OPDRVs

immediately. As reported in LER 05000387/2018-001, Susquehanna conducted the following OPDRVs during the period of secondary containment inoperability:

Recirculation system maintenance and pump replacement; Reactor water cleanup system flushes and maintenance; RHR system maintenance; Hydraulic control unit and control rod drive system maintenance; Local power range monitor replacement

s, including Intermediate Range Monitor 1E Dry Tube replacement; Control rod drive mechanism replacements; and Core spray instrument line flush.

NRC EGM 11-03, "EGM on Dispositioning

BWR Licensee Noncompliance With TS Containment Requirements During Operations With A Potential For Draining The Reactor

Vessel," Revision 3, provides, in part, for the exercise of enforcement discretion only if the licensee demonstrates that it has met specific criteria during an OPDRV activity. The inspectors assessed that Susquehanna adequately implemented these criteria.

In accordance with EGM 11-003, in order to continue to receive enforcement discretion, a

license amendment request (LAR) must be submitted and accepted for review within 12 months of the NRC staff's publication of the generic change, which occurred on December 20, 2016. The inspectors verified that Susquehanna submitted the required LAR on

September 20, 2017 (ADAMS Accession No. ML17265A434), and that it was subsequently

accepted by the NRC for review by a letter dated October 16, 2017 (ADAMS Accession No.

ML17290A024).

Corrective Action: Susquehanna submitted an LAR to adopt TS Task Force Traveler 542,

Reactor Pressure Vessel Water Inventory Control, on September 20, 2017.

Corrective Action Reference: AR-2015-01733

Enforcement:

Violation: TS 3.6.4.1, "Secondary Containment," requires that secondary containment be

operable, and is applicable during OPDRVs. The required action for this specification if

secondary containment is inoperable in this condition of applicability is to initiate actions to suspend OPDRVs immediately. Therefore, failing to maintain secondary containment operability during OPDRVs without initiating actions to suspend the operation was considered

a condition prohibited by TSs as defined by 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B).

Contrary to the above, from April 2 through April 24, 2018, Susquehanna performed OPDRVs without establishing secondary containment integrity.

Basis for Discretion: The NRC is exercising enforcement discretion in accordance with Section 3.5, "Violations Involving Special Circumstances," of the NRC Enforcement Policy

because all criteria described in EGM 11-003 were met, enforcement discretion was previously authorized by EA-2017-089, and the licensee submitted an LAR on September 20, 2017 which was subsequently accepted by the NRC for review on October 16, 2017, and, therefore, will not issue enforcement action for this violation.

The disposition of this violation closes LER 05000387/2018-001-00.

Observations

71152 Semi-Annual Trend Review The inspectors performed a semi-annual review of

site issues to identify trends that might indicate the existence of more significant safety concerns. As part of this review, the

inspectors included repetitive or closely-related issues documented by Susquehanna in the CAP database, trend reports, site performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, system health reports, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance or CAP backlogs.

The inspectors also reviewed how Susquehanna's CAP evaluated and responded to

individual issues identified by the NRC inspectors during routine plant walkdowns and daily condition report reviews.

Rigor of operability determinations. The inspectors noted a trend of conditions adverse to quality for which the basis for operability was inadequate. Station procedure NDAP-QA-0703,

"Operability Determinations & Functionality Assessments," Attachment E, "Guidance for

Operability Determinations & Functionality Assessments," contains guidance for evaluating

operability in some specific situations. The inspectors noted examples of operability determinations that accepted plant structures, systems, or components as operable without considering all guidance offered in the procedure. For example:

The basis for operability given in condition report CR-2018-01164, which documented a deformed hanger supporting piping for the residual heat removal suppression pool spray system, did not reference NDAP-QA-0703, Attachment E, Section 11, "Piping and Pipe

Support Requirements." Section 11 states that specific operability criteria for pipe

supports are provided in NRC Inspection and Enforcement Bulletins 79-02 and 79-14. Susquehanna did not appear to use these criteria to determine operability of the pipe

hanger. Condition report CR-2018-02398 documented that the walls of the 'D' EDG air compressor receivers were found below minimum allowable thickness due to corrosion.

The licensee did not use NDAP-QA-0703, Attachment E, Section 8, "Flaw Evaluation," to evaluate for operability. The licensee ultimately found an alternative method of

evaluation, however the inspectors noted this as another example of a failure to use

procedural guidance.

The inspectors also noted examples of inadequate justifications for delays in performing corrective actions for conditions adverse to quality. These examples are documented in NCV

05000387/2018-002-03 of this report.

Housekeeping deficiencies in the plant affecting seismic qualification. The inspectors identified a trend of unrestrained items being left in locations where they could adversely impact installed plant equipment. The inspectors noted the following examples:

On December 3, 2017, licensee staff identified that from December 1, 2017, to December 3, 2017, a 540 pound, ten foot long replacement pipe had been staged on 34 inch high stands within 34 inches of the safety-related Unit 1 'B' core spray room cooler.

Based upon engineering review, the room cooler was determined to be inoperable during

this timeframe since during a seismic event, the pipe could have reasonably contacted and damaged the flexible conduit for the power cable to the room cooler. The inspectors documented this as a licensee-identified NCV in Inspection Report

05000387;388/2018001, Section 71111.15.

During a plant walkdown on March 27, 2018, the inspectors identified several items improperly staged in the Unit 1 reactor building in preparation for the refueling outage. Specifically, lead shielding blankets were stacked near sensitive monitoring equipment for

the post-accident sampling system, and tool boxes were blocking access to the control rod drive skid. The licensee documented this issue in CR-2018-04587 and moved the blankets and tool boxes to an appropriate storage location.

On April 4, 2018, licensee staff identified that two unrestrained hand trucks carrying a replacement motor generator set had been left within two inches of the Unit 1 division 1 swing bus switchgear when pre-staged in preparation for the refueling outage. The licensee documented this issue in CR-2018-04998 and moved the hand trucks and their contents to an appropriate storage location. The licensee conducted a past operability

review of the condition, and the engineering evaluation determined that the unrestrained

equipment was not susceptible to tipping, but was susceptible to sliding. Engineering

calculations determined the equipment would have slid less than an inch in a seismic

event, and therefore there was no effect on past operability of the swing bus switchgear.

On May 7, 2018 and May 9, 2018, licensee staff identified that overhead cranes had been parked and left unattended over the Unit 1 RHR hatches, which is clearly marked as a "red zone" area with restrictions on storing transient combustibles. NDAP-QA-0440

states that overhead cranes contain combustible materials and therefore may not be

parked and unattended without an approved permit. The licensee documented these

occurrences in CR-2018-07606 and CR-2018-07499 and established an hourly fire watch until the cranes could be moved to the proper storage area.

During a plant walkdown on June 18, 2018, the inspectors identified a ladder upright and leaning against the wall adjacent to the instrument rack that houses the Unit 1 division 2 RCIC turbine rupture disc high pressure switches. The licensee documented this

observation in CR-2018-09496 and moved the ladder to an approved storage rack. A past operability review is in progress.

During a plant walkdown on June 27, 2018, the inspectors identified a large unrestrained breaker improperly staged in the Unit 1 reactor building near the alternate rod insertion division 2 panel. The licensee documented this observation in CR-2018-09955 and

moved the breaker to an appropriate storage location. A past operability review is in

progress.

Observations 71152

Follow-up of

selected issues During 2015 and 2016, three Green NCVs were identified involving inadequate controls over

high and locked high radiation areas (05000387&388/2015002-02; 05000387&388/2016002-

05; 05000387&388/2016002-06).

Susquehanna performed apparent cause analyses on the three events under CR-2014-31911, CR-2015-33947, and CR-2016-11944. In all three cases the apparent cause was related back to issues with human performance and individual contributor knowledge.

Corrective actions were appropriately taken by Susquehanna to address each of the specific

instances that occurred through focused training or standards reinforcement to the involved

individuals or groups of individuals.

The inspectors reviewed the technical adequacy and depth of evaluations performed by the

licensee for these issues. The inspectors also evaluated the licensee's development and

implementation of corrective actions in this area.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

Inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.

On July 26, 2018, the inspectors presented the quarterly resident inspector inspection results to Mr. Timothy Rausch, President and Chief Nuclear Officer, and other members of the Susquehanna staff.

THIRD PARTY REVIEWS

Inspectors reviewed Institute of Nuclear Power Operations reports that were issued during the

inspection period.
