The inspectors evaluated the design, material condition, and procedures for coping with the design basis probable maximum flood. The evaluation included a review to check for deviations from the descriptions provided in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) for features intended to mitigate the potential for flooding from external factors. As part of this evaluation, the inspectors checked for obstructions that could prevent draining, checked that the roofs did not contain obvious loose items that could clog drains in the event of heavy precipitation, and determined that barriers required to mitigate the flood were in place and operable. Additionally, the inspectors performed a walkdown of the protected area to identify any modification to the site, which would inhibit site drainage during a probable maximum precipitation event or allow water ingress past a barrier. The inspectors also walked down underground bunkers/manholes subject to flooding that contained multiple train or multiple function risk-significant cables. The inspectors also reviewed the abnormal operating procedure (AOP) for mitigating the design basis flood to ensure it could be implemented as written.

REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant Status Unit 1 The unit operated at or near full power for the inspection period, except for brief power reductions to conduct planned maintenance and surveillance activities.
Unit 2 The unit operated at or near full power until March 4, 2017, when the unit began coastdown in preparation for the planned refueling outage (RFO) U2R35. The unit was shut down on March 18, 2017, and remained shut down for the remainder of the inspection period.
REACTOR SAFETY
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, and Emergency Preparedness
1R01 Adverse Weather Protection
.1 External Flooding
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors evaluated the design, material condition, and procedures for coping with the design basis probable maximum flood. The evaluation included a review to check for deviations from the descriptions provided in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) for features intended to mitigate the potential for flooding from external factors. As part of this evaluation, the inspectors checked for obstructions that could prevent draining, checked that the roofs did not contain obvious loose items that could clog drains in the event of heavy precipitation, and determined that barriers required to mitigate the flood were in place and operable. Additionally, the inspectors performed a walkdown of the protected area to identify any modification to the site, which would inhibit site drainage during a probable maximum precipitation event or allow water ingress past a barrier. The inspectors also walked down underground bunkers/manholes subject to flooding that contained multiple train or multiple function risk-significant cables. The inspectors also reviewed the abnormal operating procedure (AOP) for mitigating the design basis flood to ensure it could be implemented as written. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This inspection constituted one external flooding sample as defined in inspection procedure (IP) 71111.01-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R04 Equipment Alignment
.1 Quarterly Partial System Walkdowns
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant systems:
- G-03 emergency diesel generator (EDG) with G-01 EDG out of service (OOS);
- diesel-driven fire pump with the motor-driven fire pump OOS; and
- Unit 1 motor driven auxiliary feedwater pump after testing. The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the Reactor Safety Cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could impact the function of the system and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable procedures, system diagrams, the FSAR, and the Fire Protection Evaluation Report to determine the correct system alignment. The inspectors also walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the components and observed operating parameters of equipment to verify that there were no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly identified and
resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the corrective action program (CAP) with the appropriate significance characterization. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. These activities constituted three partial system walkdown samples as defined in IP 71111.04-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R05 Fire Protection
.1 Routine Resident Inspector Tours
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors conducted fire protection walkdowns, which were focused on availability, accessibility, and the condition of firefighting equipment in the following risk-significant plant areas:
- Fire Zone 309: G-02 EDG room;
- Fire Zone 552: service water pump room & Fire Zone 553; circulating water pump room;
- Fire Zone 237: component cooling water heat exchanger and boric acid tank room;
- Fire Zone 305: 4160 volt vital switchgear room; and
- Fire Zone 310: air compressor room.
5 The inspectors reviewed areas to assess whether the licensee had implemented a fire protection program that adequately controlled combustibles and ignition sources within the plant, effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability, maintained passive fire protection features in good material condition, and implemented adequate compensatory measures for OOS, degraded or inoperable fire protection equipment, systems, or features in accordance with the licensee's fire plan. The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk as documented in the plant's Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later additional insights, their potential to impact equipment which could initiate or mitigate a plant transient, or their impact on the plant's ability to respond to a security event. Using the documents listed in the Attachment to this report, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed; that transient material loading was within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to be in satisfactory condition. The inspectors also verified that minor issues identified during the inspection were entered into the licensee's CAP. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. These activities constituted five quarterly fire protection inspection samples as defined in IP 71111.05-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R07 Annual Heat Sink Performance
.1 Heat Sink Performance
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the licensee's testing of the G-02 EDG coolant heat exchanger and the primary auxiliary building battery room vent cooler heat exchanger to verify that potential deficiencies did not mask the licensee's ability to detect degraded performance, to identify any common cause issues that had the potential to increase risk, and to ensure that the licensee was adequately addressing problems that, in the event of an initiating event, would cause an increase in risk. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's observations as compared against acceptance criteria, the correlation of scheduled testing and the frequency of testing, and the impact of instrument inaccuracies on test results. Inspectors also verified that test acceptance criteria considered differences between test conditions, design conditions, and testing conditions. Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the Attachment to this document. This annual heat sink performance inspection constituted two samples as defined in IP 71111.07-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R08 Inservice Inspection Activities
From March 22, 2017, through March 31, 2017, the inspectors conducted a review of the implementation of the licensee's Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program for monitoring degradation of the Unit 2 reactor coolant system (RCS), emergency feedwater systems, risk-significant piping and components, and containment systems. The reviews described in Sections 1R08.1, 1R08.2, R08.3, IR08.4, and 1R08.5 below, count as one inspection sample as described by Inspection Procedure 71111.08.
.1 Piping Systems Inservice Inspection
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed records of the following Non-Destructive Examinations (NDE) required by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)Section XI Code, and/or Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.55a to evaluate compliance with the ASME Code,Section XI, and Section V requirements, and if any indications and defects were detected, to determine whether these were dispositioned in accordance with the ASME Code or an NRC-approved alternative requirement:
- visual VT-3 examination of residual heat removal system pipe supports AC-601R-6-2H20A and 601R-6-R2376. The licensee had not identified any recordable indications during surface and volumetric examinations performed since the beginning of the previous refueling outage. Therefore, no NRC review was completed for this inspection procedure attribute. The inspectors reviewed records of the following risk-significant pressure boundary ASME Code Section XI Class 2 welds fabricated since the beginning of the last refueling outage to determine whether the licensee applied the pre-service NDE and acceptance criteria required by the construction Code and the ASME Code Section XI. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the welding procedure specification and supporting weld procedure qualification records to determine whether the weld procedure was qualified in accordance with the requirements of the Construction Code and the ASME Code Section IX:
- welds 1, 2, and 3 in the component cooling water system - Work Order (WO) 040312562-01 (2CC-755B Cutout and Replace Valve).
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Reactor Pressure Vessel Upper Head Penetration Inspection Activities
a. Inspection Scope
For the Unit 2 vessel head, no examination was required pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(g)(6)(ii)(D) for the current refueling outage. Therefore, no NRC review was completed for this inspection procedure attribute.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.3 Boric Acid Corrosion Control
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed an independent walkdown of portions of the RCS and connected systems within containment that had received a recent licensee boric acid walkdown to determine whether the licensee's visual examinations had effectively identified boric acid leakage that potentially degraded safety-related components. The inspectors reviewed the following licensee evaluations of RCS components with boric acid deposits to determine whether degraded components were documented in the corrective action system and for degraded components that the planned or completed corrective actions met the Construction Code, ASME Section XI Code, and/or NRC-approved alternative.
- boric acid corrosion control evaluation 15-190B-E (2SC-00966C-reactor coolant sample line hot leg containment isolation valve); and
- boric acid corrosion control evaluation 15-373A (2-RC-500-reactor vessel head vent valve). The inspectors reviewed the following corrective actions related to evidence of boric acid leakage to determine whether the corrective actions completed were consistent with the requirements of the ASME Code Section XI and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI.
- Action Request (AR) 02160467 (2SI-0866B boric acid leak); and
- AR 02153935 (2SI-0897B boric acid leak).
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.4 Stream Generator Tube Inspection Activities
a. Inspection Scope
The NRC inspectors observed acquisition of ed dy current (ET) data, observed ET data analysis and reviewed procedures implementi ng the steam generator (SG) ISI program to determine whether:
8
- the numbers and sizes of SG tube flaws/degradation identified was bounded by the licensee's previous outage Operational Assessment predictions;
- the SG tube ET examination scope and expansion criteria were sufficient to meet the Technical Specifications (TS), and the Electric Power Research Institute 1003138, "Pressurized Water Reactor SG Examination Guidelines";
- the SG tube ET examination scope included potential areas of tube degradation identified in prior outage SG tube inspections and/or as identified in NRC generic industry operating experience applicable to these SG tubes;
- the licensee identified new tube degradation mechanisms and implemented adequate extent of condition inspection scope and repairs for the new tube degradation mechanism;
- the licensee implemented repair methods which were consistent with the repair processes allowed in the plant TS requirements and implemented at appropriate tube locations;
- qualified depth sizing methods were applied to degraded tubes accepted for continued service;
- the licensee implemented an inappropriate "plug on detection" tube repair threshold (e.g., no attempt at sizing of flaws to confirm tube integrity);
- the licensee primary-to-secondary leakage (e.g., SG tube leakage) was below 3 gallons-per-day, or the detection threshold, during the previous operating cycle;
- the ET probes and equipment configurations, as documented on the Examination Technique Specification Sheets, used to acquire/analyze data from the SG tubes were qualified to detect and/or size the known/expected types of SG tube degradation in accordance with Appendix H and I, Performance Demonstration for ET Examination, of Electric Power Research Institute 1003138, "Pressurized Water Reactor Steam Generator Examination Guidelines"; and
- the licensee performed secondary side SG inspections for location and removal of foreign materials; The licensee did not perform in situ pressure testing of SG tubes. Therefore, no NRC review was completed for this inspection attribute.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.5 Identification and Resolution of Problems
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a review of ISI/SG related problems entered into the licensee's corrective action program and conducted interviews with licensee staff to determine whether the licensee had:

To determine the accuracy of the PI data reported during those periods, PI definitions and guidance contained in the NEI
Document 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Revision 7, dated August 31, 2013, were used. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's operator narrative logs and station power history during this time period to validate the accuracy of the submittals. The inspectors also reviewed the licensee's issue report database to determine if any problems had been identified with the PI data collected or transmitted for this indicator and none were identified. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.
26 This inspection constituted two unplanned transients per 7000 critical hour samples as defined in IP 71151-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems
.1 Routine Review of Items Entered into the Corrective Action Program
a. Inspection Scope
As discussed in previous sections of this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify they were being entered into the licensee's corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, adequate attention was being given to timely corrective actions, and adverse trends were identified and addressed. Some minor issues were entered into the licensee's corrective action program as a result of the inspectors' observations; however, they are not discussed in this report. These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure they were considered an integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues:
G-02 Emergency Diesel Generator Wrist Pin Bearing Degradation
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected the following issue for an in-depth review:
- G-02 emergency diesel generator (EDG) oil analysis indicates increased silver content. This issue was identified on December 28, 2016, when a review of results from a lubricating oil sample of the G-02 EDG taken on November 17, 2016, indicated increased silver content. The licensee routinely analyzed the silver content of the G-02 EDG lubricating oil based on manufacturer and vendor recommendations as increased silver content may indicate abnormal wear on susceptible components, including the engine's wrist pin bearings. As a result of the increase in silver content, the licensee inspected the EDG engine on January 3, 2017, and identified silver debris in the oil sump and wear on the wrist pin bearings. The licensee replaced all power assemblies in the engine with an updated wrist pin bearing design that is less susceptible to this issue. The G-02 EDG was returned to service on January 8, 2017, after repairs were completed. The licensee completed an apparent cause evaluation (ACE) and a past operability review for this issue. Additionally, they performed an analysis of the wrist pin bearing degradation.
27 As appropriate, the inspectors verified the following attributes during their review of the licensee's corrective actions for condition reports (CR's) documenting the issue:
- complete and accurate identification of the problem in a timely manner commensurate with its safety significance and ease of discovery;
- consideration of the extent of condition, generic implications, common cause, and previous occurrences;
- evaluation and disposition of operability/functionality/reportability issues;
- classification and prioritization of the resolution of the problem commensurate with safety significance;
- identification of the apparent and contributing causes of the problem;
- identification of corrective actions, which were appropriately focused to correct the problem; and
- completion of corrective actions in a timely manner commensurate with the safety significance of the issue. The inspectors discussed the corrective actions and associated evaluations with licensee personnel. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This review constituted one in-depth problem identification and resolution inspection sample as defined in IP 71152. b. Observations The licensee's past operability review discussed that increased silver content in the lubricating oil was first detected on November 29, 2016, when the licensee received analysis results from an oil sample taken on November 17, 2016. The inspectors questioned the sequence of events from November 17, 2016, until the condition report was written on December 28, 2016, for this issue. The licensee indicated that lubricating oil samples were taken monthly, however, they were analyzed on a quarterly basis, which was identified as a programmatic issue in their ACE. The initial analysis results for the November 17, 2016, oil sample were received on November 29, 2016. However, the vendor that completed the analysis did not use a high accuracy analysis method.
This resulted in the silver content being repor ted as 1 ppm silver and the exact level of silver was unknown by the licensee. At the request of the licensee, the sample was reanalyzed with a high accuracy analysis and the licensee received the resulting silver content of 1.1 ppm on December 27, 2016. When the high accuracy analysis results were received, the licensee submitted additional G-02 lubricating oil samples from October 18, 2016, and December 15, 2016, for analysis. The licensee's ACE identified that an elevated silver content was also discovered in these two samples. The inspectors questioned the licensee's sensitivity to this issue due to past operating experience. Specifically, on November 29, 2016, they received analysis results that, although not a high accuracy analysis, indicated a higher than expected silver content in the lubricating oil. At that time, the issue was discussed among the system engineers, however it was not placed in the CAP process. The inspectors discussed that, although the licensee took prompt action when the high accuracy analysis results were obtained, the opportunity to take more timely action was missed when the low accuracy results were initially received on November 29, 2016.
c. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA3 Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion
.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000266/2016-001-00:
Unit 1 Degraded Condition On March 15, 2016, during performance of boric acid inspection activities for the Unit 1 refueling outage the licensee identified a boric acid indication upstream of the valve seating surface on the inlet of the "B" letdown orifice outlet control valve body. The condition was assessed as a through-wall flaw located within the reactor coolant system pressure boundary. On May 12, 2016, the licensee submitted the licensee event report (LER) in accordance with requirements of 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(ii)(A) for any event or condition that resulted in the condition of the nuclear power plant, including its principal safety barriers, being seriously degraded. The licensee concluded that the material defect in the primary coolant system could not be found acceptable in accordance with ASME Section XI, IWB-3600, "Analytical Evaluation of Flaws," or ASME Section XI, Table IWB-3410-1, "Acceptance Standards." The licensee performed an ACE, which identified the most likely cause for the through-wall leak to be associated with a sand inclusion during valve fabrication revealed through destructive testing and records review. Review of valve fabrication radiographic examination results from 1968 further revealed that sand inclusions were noted and accepted as is using the Class 2 acceptance criteria of ASTM Specification E-71, "Reference Radiographs for Steel Castings up to 2 inches in Thickness," which was the inspection specification at the time of fabrication. Corrective actions included replacement of the leaking "B" letdown orifice outlet control valve and extent of condition visual examinations of the other valves fabricated using the same casting. The inspectors reviewed the LER, the licensee's ACE and corrective actions and determined
that no findings or violations of NRC requirements existed. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.
.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000266/2012-001-00:
Operability of G-01 and G-02 Emergency Diesel Generators
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the subject LER that was submitted on June 25, 2012. In Task Interface Agreement (TIA) 2011-011, "Evaluation of Point Beach Nuclear Plant Tornado Missile Protection Licensing Basis," dated August 16, 2011, the NRC concluded that the licensing basis for Point Beach Nuclear Plant (PBNP) required the EDG exhaust stacks to be protected from tornado missiles. Licensee personnel, in a prompt operability determination, determined that the EDGs were operable, but non-conforming. Subsequently, the NRC issued TIA 2012-07, "App licability of General Design Criteria Requirements in Operability Determinations and Assessment of the Point Beach Nuclear Plant Operability Determination for Emergency Diesel Generators with Respect to Tornado Missiles," dated April 24, 2012. Based on concerns in TIA 2012-07, PBNP declared EDGs G-01 and G-02 inoperable on April 26, 2012, and entered the 7-day Action Condition for TS 3.8.1, "AC Sources - Operating." A protective structure was 29 designed and built around the G-02 EDG exhaust stack within 7 days and the EDGs were returned to an operable status. Subsequently, in November 2012, the licensee revised the FSAR which changed the PBNP tornado missile licensing basis for safety related equipment to "separation and redundancy" as opposed to providing physical protection from tornado missiles. The inspectors noted that the FSAR change was performed under AR 01819360 dated November 2, 2012, and 10 CFR 50.59 Screening SCR 2012-0178 dated November 5, 2012. While reviewing the FSAR change, the inspectors noted that the licensee used a Westinghouse letter E-R-206, dated October 2, 1969, and the NRC Staff Evaluation Report, "Individual Plant Examination of External Events Submitted for PBNP, Units 1 and 2," dated September 15, 1999, as the basis for the FSAR change. The inspectors identified this action was contrary to the conclusions of TIA 2011-011, and was a minor violation of "Failure to obtain a License Amendment for a Licensing Basis Change in the UFSAR." The conclusions of the TIA 2011-011 stated, in part that, "the licensee's use of the Individual Plant Examination of External Events, other non-licensing basis documentation and judgements of low probability to demonstrate compliance with the licensing basis are not acceptable without submitting this material for NRC staff review and inclusion in the UFSAR." When the inspectors raised this concern the licensee captured it in their CAP as AR 02188846 with the recommendation to initiate a licensing change to remove "separation and redundancy" as the licensing basis for tornado missile protection from the FSAR. The inspectors reviewed the LER to ensure it was reported accurately in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73 reporting requirements. Documents reviewed are listed in the to this report. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.3 Notification of Unusual Event due to Fire Alarm in Unit 1 Containment
a. Inspection Scope
On Monday, March 20, 2017, at 4:20 p.m. CDT, Point Beach, Unit 1 declared a Notice of Unusual Event due to a smoke detector alarm in the Unit 1 containment. There were no indications of any other detector alarms, no abnormal equipment indications, and containment temperature and humidity parameters were normal. The declaration was made under the Initiating Condition of HU2, "Fire Within Protected Area Boundary Not Extinguished Within 15 Minutes of Detection," and the Emergency Action Level HU2.1, "Fire in Table H-1 areas not extinguished within 15 minutes of control room notification or verification of control room alarm." Unit 1 containment was one of the areas listed in Table H-1. Following the smoke detector alarm, the licensee entered AOP-40, "Response to Fire," Revision 0 and dispatched the fire brigade to the Unit 1 containment. The licensee entered the Unit 1 containment lower hatch at 4:36 p.m., and at 4:40 p.m., the individuals in containment reported that there was no smoke, no fire, and no hot spots identified. The licensee announced that the smoke alarm was not valid and directed the 30 fire brigade response to stand down. The malfunctioning smoke detector was declared non-functional and the licensee terminated the event at 8:22 p.m. The inspectors responded to the control room shortly after fire was announced and remained in the control room throughout the event until it was terminated. The inspectors confirmed that the licensee's event classification and notification were both timely and accurate. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA5 Other Activities
.1 (Closed) NRC Temporary Instruction 2515/192, "Inspection of the Licensee's Interim Compensatory Measures Associated with the Open Phase Condition Design Vulnerabilities in Electric Power Systems"
a. Inspection Scope
The objective of this performance-based temporary instruction (TI) is to verify implementation of interim compensatory measures associated with an open phase condition (OPC) design vulnerability in the electric power system for operating reactors.
The inspectors conducted an inspection to determine whether the licensee had implemented the following interim com pensatory measures. These compensatory measures are to remain in place until permanent automatic detection and protection schemes are installed and declared operable for OPC design vulnerability. The inspectors verified the following:
- The licensee had identified and discussed with plant staff the lessons-learned from the OPC events at the U.S. operating plants including the Byron station OPC event and its consequences. This includes conducting operator training for promptly diagnosing, recognizing consequences, and responding to an OPC
event.
- The licensee had updated plant operating procedures to help operators promptly diagnose and respond to OPC events on off-site power sources credited for safe shutdown of the plant.
- The licensee had established and continued to implement periodic walkdown activities to inspect switchyard equipment such as insulators, disconnect switches, and transmission line and transformer connections associated with the offsite power circuits to detect a visible OPC.
- The licensee had ensured that routine maintenance and testing activities on switchyard components have been implemented and maintained. As part of the maintenance and testing activities, the licensee assessed and managed plant risk in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(a)
- (4) requirements.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors identified that the licensee conducted training with personnel to understand the consequences and required actions 31 upon detection of an open phase event. The licensee had not provided operator training for promptly diagnosing an open phase event beyond the existing training for responding to annunciator alarms. The licensee has, in their current analyses for plant response to an open phase event, concluded that either the safety busses will switch to onsite power or, because of their transformers winding configuration and capability, will be adequately powered even with an open phase. Licensee procedures require a minimum of two daily inspections of the switchyard, weather permitting, with instructions to visually inspect conductors and switchyard equipment. The licensee also schedules semi-annual thermography inspection of switchyard components. TI 2515/192 is closed.
4OA6 Management Meetings
.1 Exit Meeting Summary On April 4, 2017, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. R. Coffey and other members of the licensee staff.
The licensee acknowledged the issues presented.
The inspectors confirmed that none of the potential report input discussed was considered proprietary.
.2 Interim Exit Meetings Interim exits were conducted for:
- On March 2, 2017, the inspectors conducted an interim exit and presented the inspection results for the LER 05000301/2012-001-00, "Operability of G-01 and G-02 Diesel Generators" closure to Mr. B. Woyak, Regulatory Assurance Manager. Licensee personnel acknowledged the inspection results.
- On March 31, 2017, the inspectors conducted an interim exit for the inservice inspection activities with Mr. R. Coffey, and other members of the licensee's staff. Licensee personnel acknowledged the inspection results.
- The inspection results for the Radiation Safety Program review with Mr. R. Coffey, on March 31, 2017. The inspectors confirmed that none of the potential report input discussed was considered proprietary. Proprietary materials received during the inspection were returned to the licensee.
4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations The following violation of very low significance (Green) was identified by the licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements, which meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy for being dispositioned as a non-cited violation (NCV). The licensee identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an NCV of TS 5.5.14, "Safety Function Determination Program (SFDP)," due to the failure to detect
a loss of safety function and ensure appropriate actions were taken during maintenance activities conducted during performance of WO 40513133 for troubleshooting the check source drive mechanism for RE-235, control room noble gas monitor, on January 18, 2017. In addition to the troubleshooting activities in WO 40513133, the licensee concurrently performed preventative maintenance on W-14A, F-16 control 32 room charcoal filter fan, and W-13B2, control room recirculation fan. Due to these activities, the licensee implemented procedure NP 10.3.8, "Safety Function Determination Program," to ensure that a loss of safety function was detected and the appropriate actions were taken for the equipment out of service associated with the CREFS. Specifically, NP 10.3.8, step 4.2.2 stated, "Perform Loss of Safety Function Evaluation." Contrary to NP 10.3.8, step 4.2.2, an adequate loss of safety function evaluation was not performed for the CREFS system based on the equipment that was out of service. As a result of the inadequate loss of safety function evaluation, the licensee did not perform the Required Actions of TS limiting condition for operation (LCO) 3.7.9, "Control Room Emergency Filtration System (CREFS)," Condition C. The inadequate loss of safety function evaluation was identified when an operator wrote an action request that questioned condition of the CREFS during maintenance activities on January 18, 2017. TS 5.5.14, "Safety Function Determination Program," required, in part, that if a loss of safety function is determined to exist by this program, the appropriate Conditions and Required Actions of the LCO in which the loss of safety function exists are required to be entered. Contrary to the above, on January 18, 2017, the licensee did not enter the appropriate Conditions and Required Actions of the LCO in which a loss of safety
function existed. Specifically, the licensee did not adequately implement procedure NP 10.3.8, step 4.2.2, which resulted in the licensee not performing the Required Actions of TS LCO 3.7.9, Condition C. The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as AR 02183341. The inspectors determined that this issue was of very low safety significance (Green) after reviewing IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process,"
0609.04, "Initial Characterization of Findings," dated October 7, 2016 and IMC 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power," dated July 1, 2012. The inspectors answered "Yes" to Question 1 in
Exhibit 3, Section C, "Control Room Auxiliary, Reactor, or Spent Fuel Pool Building." This resulted in the finding screening as Green. ATTACHMENT:
