====a. Inspection Scope====
Region-based specialist inspectors reviewed Entergy's corrective actions related to theexisting Indian Point alert and notification system (ANS) failures, and reviewed the progress made in the design and installation of the new siren system. Inspection activities were conducted onsite periodically between April 12 and June 28, 2007. This inspection was conducted in accordance with the baseline inspection program deviation authorized by the NRC Executive Director for Operations (EDO) in a memorandum dated October 31, 2005, and renewed by the EDO in a memorandum dated December 11, 2006.A new ANS is being installed around the Indian Point Energy Center to satisfycommitments documented in an NRC Confirmatory Order (dated January 31, 2006) that implements the requirements outlined in the 2005 Energy Policy Act. In January 2007, 9EnclosureEntergy requested an extension of the deadline for completing the ANS project asdescribed in the Confirmatory Order. The Confirmatory Order set a January 30, 2007, deadline for completing installation. Entergy's extension request cited several issues that were beyond their control as the basis for the delay. On January 23, 2007, the NRC granted Entergy's extension request and established April 15, 2007, as the new installation completion date. Entergy conducted a full-system demonstration test of the new ANS on April 12, 2007, and the results of that test failed to meet the acceptance criteria for the new system. On April 13, 2007, Entergy requested another extension which was subsequently denied. On April 23, 2007, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation and civil penalty for Entergy's failure to comply with the siren operability date in the Confirmatory Order.The inspectors conducted the following onsite inspection activities during this quarter.
 
*The inspectors observed the full-volume sounding on April 12, 2007 to meet theApril 15, 2007 deadline.*The inspectors reviewed supplemental bench testing done by Entergy's vendorto verify test results from the degraded battery voltage testing performed in the previous quarter.*The inspectors observed and inspected the degraded voltage re-test of one ofthe back-up batteries for the new ANS system. The re-test was done because during the first test there was a problem with the resistive load used for the simulated activation. This testing conducted from May 29, 2007 to June 6, 2007 assured that the battery at the siren would operate at its end-of-life condition after having lost alternating current power for 24 hours.*During all onsite siren inspection activities, the regional inspectors also reviewedthe status of and corrective actions for the current ANS to assure that Entergy was appropriately maintaining the system, including the quarterly full-system growl test of the current ANS conducted on June 28, 2007 to demonstrate its functionality.

The inspectors included in this review repetitive or closely related issues that may have been documented by Entergy outside of the normal corrective action program (CAP), such as trend reports, performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance and CAP backlogs.The inspectors reviewed Entergy's CAP database during the first and second quartersof 2007 to assess the total number and significance of condition reports written in various subject areas, such as equipment or processes, to discern any notable trends in these areas. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's quarterly assessment/trend reports forboth CAP and Quality Assurance for the fourth quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007 to ensure they were appropriately evaluating and trending identified conditions. b.Assessment and ObservationsNo findings of significance were identified.
 
12EnclosureThe inspectors determined that Entergy was appropriately identifying and evaluatingtrends in identified conditions..3Fitness-For-Duty (FFD) Program (71152 - 1 sample)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspector reviewed the actions taken by Entergy in response to an employeedisplaying unusual behavior. The actions taken by the employee's supervisor and the Fitness-for-Duty personnel in the Medical Department were reviewed along with Entergy's FFD policies and procedures.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors determined that Entergy tookappropriate actions in accordance with applicable NRC regulatory requirements and internal FFD policies and procedures..4PI&R Annual Sample Review:  Procedure Upgrade Project (71152 - 1 sample)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
On March 2, 2007, the NRC issued the Annual Assessment Letter for Indian Point Units2 and 3. In the letter, the NRC identified a substantive cross-cutting issue in the area of human performance at Unit 2 due to the number of inspection findings that were attributable to procedural adequacy over the assessment period. The inspectors conducted a review of Entergy's action plans and progress in addressing improvements in operations and maintenance procedures. The inspectors reviewed the scope of Entergy's plans in the areas of operations, instrumentation and control, and maintenance to determine if the scope was sufficient to address the identified concerns.
 
The inspectors also evaluated Entergy's progress on the project and reviewed the metrics and time lines that Entergy had established. A sample of procedures was selected for review to evaluate the quality and scope of the upgrades in the procedures that had been completed. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's self-assessments to ensure they were thorough and critical in nature. A sample of condition reports which contained aspects of procedural adequacy were reviewed to ensure the actions to address the concerns were covered within the scope of the procedure upgrade project and that immediate actions were taken to mitigate the concern where appropriate.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
The inspectors noted that a previous concern associated with the development of theaction plans in the area of instrumentation and controls had been addressed. The inspectors determined the detail and scope of the plans in this area had been enhanced to an appropriate level.
 
13EnclosureHowever, the inspectors identified concerns associated with the effectiveness ofEntergy's implementation of their corrective actions to date. A review of Entergy's progress identified that the goal for completed procedures had not been achieved in the area of the Operations Department. Some changes to operating procedures had been accomplished to address specific concerns identified through inspection findings and condition reports; however, as of June 11, 2007, no upgraded procedures had been generated in the operations portion of the upgrade project, although per Entergy's plan, 90 out of 548 procedures were scheduled to have been completed by this date. The inspectors also noted that Entergy was still in the process of allocating resources to the project to meet the requirements of the action plans. In the area of operations, only 63 percent of the required personnel had been allocated to the project. The inspectors determined this concern was recognized by Entergy and additional resources were scheduled to be allocated to the project. In addition, Entergy was developing a recovery plan to ensure that the project goals would be met, including detailed metrics to monitorthe progress of the upgrade project.
 
===.5 PI&R Annual Sample Review - Corrective Actions for Utility Tunnel Degradation===
{{IP sample|IP=IP 71152|count=1}}
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
In March 2006, a 20 to 30 gallon per minute leak was identified from a 10 inch fireprotection header in the Indian Point utility tunnel. At the time, the NRC identified that Entergy's corrective actions for previous utility tunnel degradation had been inadequate, and issued non-cited violation 05000247/2006002-03. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's analysis and corrective actions associated with this issue, and a number of other condition reports documenting poor material condition in the utility tunnel (CR IP2-2005-03578, IP2-2006-00893, and IP2-2006-06807). These CRs were initiated to document, investigate, and develop corrective actions to resolve material deficiencies in the systems located in the utility tunnel, most notably with fire protection and city water piping. The inspection included a review of the Utility Tunnel Action Plan, Project Plan, and Technical Report 00263-TR-001, "Functionality and Risk-Significance Evaluation of the Indian Point Unit 1 and 2 Mechanical and Electrical Systems Located in the Utility Tunnel," Revision 0. Additionally, the inspectors performed a walkdown of the utility tunnel to confirm Entergy's observations as documented in CRs and held discussions with cognizant personnel to verify the technical adequacy of the proposed resolution of the deficiencies.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
The inspectors determined that Entergy's causal analysis was acceptable and that anadequate corrective action plan had been developed. While Entergy had replaced the leaking pipe and initiated increased monitoring of the utility tunnel equipment, including periodic ultrasonic testing and visual inspections, the inspectors identified that some of the planned corrective actions had not been implemented and that the material condition 14Enclosureof the utility tunnel had not improved significantly. Because the affected plant systemsand equipment in the utility tunnel were not safety-related, the inspectors determined that Entergy's actions were adequate..6Annual Sample:  Safety Conscious Work Environment Corrective Actions (71152 - Unit 2: 1 sample / Unit 3: 1 sample)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
On December 21, 2006, the NRC issued a letter [ADAMS Ref. ML063560335]requesting that Entergy provide its plan for evaluating a potential chilling effect onsite and its plan of action for addressing the matter to the NRC. This letter and its enclosure documented the results of problem identification and resolution (PI&R) team inspections at the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC). The letter stated that the NRC had become aware of incidents where workers perceived that individuals were treated negatively by management for raising issues. As a result of these incidents, some workers expressed reluctance to raise issues under certain circumstances. While most workers made a distinction between nuclear safety issues and other concerns, the teams noted that some of the illustrative examples provided by plant workers could have nuclear safety implications. However, the teams did not identify any more than minor issues which had not been raised. The teams also noted that Entergy had not fully evaluated the results of a 2006 safety culture assessment to understand the causes of negative responses and declining trends related to the safety conscious work environment onsite.
 
Entergy responded in a letter dated January 22, 2007 [ADAMS Ref. ML070240242]. Based primarily on the results of interviews conducted by an independent assessment team, Entergy reported that a "perception exists within a segment of the IPEC workforce that they may suffer in some way if they were to raise a safety concern."  The results of the interviews were consistent with NRC's observations during PI&R inspections and generally consistent with the results of the independent safety culture assessment. Entergy's letter provided a plan with actions intended to improve the safety consciouswork environment (SCWE). Specifically, the plan included corrective actions to improve communications; identify and prevent retaliation, chilling effect, and the perception of retaliation; enhance the corrective action program; enhance the employee concerns program; and improve the broader work environment at IPEC. Entergy also indicated that metrics would be developed to measure performance at achieving the components of a healthy SCWE and an assessment would be conducted to confirm the effectiveness of its actions in early 2008.The NRC reviewed Entergy's response and concluded that Entergy's completed andplanned diagnostic activities were reasonable to characterize the challenges to the safety conscious work environment onsite and the planned corrective actions were appropriate. The results of the NRC's review were documented in a letter to Entergy dated February 26, 2007 [ADAMS Ref. ML070570518]. This letter also stated that the NRC would monitor Entergy's corrective actions through baseline inspection activities.
 
15EnclosureIn June 2007, the inspectors performed PI&R sample inspections on each operating unitto review the status of Entergy's corrective actions related to the SCWE at Indian Point.
 
The inspection included over 50 interviews and discussions with technicians, staff, supervisory and management personnel in a representative cross section of work groups. The inspectors also attended selected meetings and reviewed supporting documentation for corrective actions.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
The inspectors concluded that Entergy's progress on corrective actions related to theSCWE was adequate. The inspectors observed that Entergy implemented a number of actions to address previously identified issues affecting the work environment, as revealed in a 2006 safety culture assessment, NRC inspections, and an independent assessment conducted on behalf of Entergy.Based on interview results and document reviews, the inspectors determined thatseveral actions were effective in communicating the site's commitment to a safety conscious work environment. These actions included:*Site Vice President meetings with small groups;*Site-wide communications on safety conscious work environment; and
*Changes to site schedules that allowed supervisors and managers to spendmore time in the field.The inspectors identified two corrective actions that were not yet effective. Both ofthese were associated with Entergy's actions to detect and prevent retaliation, chilling effect, and the perception of retaliation. These items constituted issues of minor significance, because there was no actual impact on the work environment.  *First, the inspectors identified a deficiency in the implementation of the ExecutiveReview Board (ERB), which was established to review proposed personnel actions to ensure:  they were not in violation of 10 CFR 50.7 employee protection regulations; they did not involve retaliation; and any potential chilling effect was addressed. Specifically, the inspectors identified that the potential for retaliation or a chilling effect for raising safety issues was not considered for some adverse personnel actions that went before the ERB. In response to this observation, Entergy entered the issue in the corrective action program with an action for the ERB to review the personnel action cases for the potential for retaliation or a chilling effect related to raising safety issues. *Secondly, the inspectors identified that the Executive Protocol Group (EPG) wasnot fully meeting its charter in providing advice to senior management on issues that may be related to retaliation or a chilling effect. For example, the EPG had not reviewed a specific event involving an individual who felt reluctant to raise issues based on the actions of a site manager. Additionally, the inspectors 16Enclosureobserved that the EPG was not reviewing some data and trending information asspecified in its process document. For example, the EPG had not reviewed SCWE-related data from condition reports or findings from surveys and assessments. Entergy made several enhancements to the EPG meeting process to incorporate the inspectors' observations.The inspectors also observed that Entergy's process for tracking and trending conditionreports (CRs) with potential SCWE aspects was not timely. Specifically, the review of CRs with SCWE-related trend codes was being performed on a 6-month basis, which may not be timely for management to respond to and mitigate new issues or trends that could affect the work environment. During interviews with the inspectors, all personnel indicated that they would raiseissues that they recognized as a nuclear safety concerns. Some individuals stated they had heard of others who may be hesitant to raise issues, due to events that had happened in the past. A few individuals stated that they may not raise low level issues, because they did not believe the issues would be corrected.When questioned about the site's initiatives in the area of SCWE, most individuals wereaware of the ongoing efforts. Some believed that the corrective actions were having a positive effect. Others were more skeptical of the corrective actions, based on their observations or what they had heard about statements made by management. Some personnel indicated that they were awaiting a demonstrated commitment to a SCWE, rather than just communications.The inspectors noted that Entergy has a number of actions planned to continue itsprogress in improving the SCWE onsite. These actions include:*Departmental action plans to address the safety culture aspects of a 2007Entergy Employee Survey;*A second round of Site Vice President meetings with small groups to continuethe dialogue on SCWE;*Ongoing efforts to conduct facilitated discussions and additional activities toimprove the work environment in the Instrumentation and Controls work group;
 
and*Refresher training on SCWE.
 
The inspectors observed that Entergy's self-assessment of actions related to SCWE have been self-critical. For example, Indian Point management held a meeting in April 2007, to discuss and take corrective actions for certain events and management behaviors that were not conducive to establishing and maintaining a healthy safety conscious work environment onsite. Additionally, a recent Entergy corporate assessment and a quality assurance audit identified opportunities for improvement in this area.

At the time, the plant was shutdown in hot standby, both main feedwater pumps were isolated, and the auxiliary feedwater system was in operation. Entergy determined the most likely cause of the actuations was a malfunction in the 21 main boiler feedwater pump turbine oil pressure switch. Because the auxiliary feedwater system was in operation prior to the start signal, there was minimal impact on plant operation. Entergy entered this issue into the corrective action program (CRs IP2-06-06885 and -06944). The inspectors reviewed LER 05000247/2006006-00, Entergy's causal analysis, and the associated corrective actions. No findings of significance or violations of NRC requirements were identified. This LER is closed.
 
===.2 (Closed) LER 05000247/2006007-00, Plant Condition Prohibited by TechnicalSpecifications due to Operation of Containment Pressure Relief Valves WhileSurveillance Requirement Not MetOn December 5, 2006, Entergy determined that three containment isolation valves hadbeen inoperable, but not closed and deactivated as required by TS.===
Specifically, valve travel for these valves was not limited to less than 60 degrees from the fully closed position, as required by TS. The three valves, PCV-1190, -1191, and -1192, are part of the containment pressure relief system and are used to relieve containment pressure to keep internal pressure within normal operating limits. Entergy determined that this condition was caused by a design deficiency which resulted in failure of a retaining clip used to limit valve travel. Entergy entered this issue into the corrective action program (CR IP2-06-06322) and initiated actions to correct the valve design deficiency. The inspectors reviewed LER 05000247/2006007-00, Entergy's causal analysis, and the associated corrective actions. This issue was determined to be a violation of minor significance, because a subsequent calculation completed by Entergy demonstrated that the valves would have been able to perform their safety function even if travel was not limited to less than 60 degrees, as required. This LER is closed.
 
18Enclosure4OA5Other Activities.1 Groundwater Contamination Investigation
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
Continued inspection of Entergy's plans, procedures, and characterization activitiesaffecting the contaminated groundwater condition at Indian Point, relative to NRC regulatory requirements, was authorized by the NRC Executive Director for Operations in a Reactor Oversight Process deviation memorandum dated October 31, 2005 (ADAMS Accession number ML053010404) and renewed on December 11, 2006 (ADAMS Accession number ML063480016). Accordingly, continuing oversight of Entergy's progress has been conducted throughout this quarterly inspection report period consisting of onsite inspections, independent split sample analyses of selected monitoring well samples, review of action plan completion status, and periodic communications with Federal, State, and local government stakeholders.Inspectors conducted an onsite review of tracer test sampling results on May 9 and 10,2007. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation officials observed and participated in the proceedings. The onsite meeting provided for an independent hydrology review of Entergy's tracer test findings and associated re-evaluation of the current site groundwater model.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
The objective of the tracer test, as mentioned above, was to identify groundwater flowand direction by injecting fluorescent tracer dye into a subsurface location representing the source of leakage, and tracking its natural groundwater migration as it was intercepted by existing monitoring wells and storm drain locations. The fluorescein dye was injected into a specially designed tracer injection co-located near monitoring well MW-30, adjacent to the Unit 2 spent fuel pool (SFP). On February 8, 2007, the tracer test began with injection of approximately 200 gallons of dye at a subsurface elevation equivalent to the bottom of the Unit 2 spent fuel pool. The natural groundwater migration of this tracer has been tracked for approximately 13 weeks by measuring the dye content in either charcoal samplers or water samples collected at selected onsite monitoring wells and storm drain locations.The tracer test was designed as an analogue to the Unit 2 SFP leakage. Entergy'shydrology consultant, GZA, described (through its visualizations) how the tracer entered the unsaturated zone above the local water table similar to the abnormal releases from the Unit 2 SFP, and moved horizontally to adjacent wells before moving vertically into the saturated zone. GZA also noted the roles of backfills which provide preferential paths to the storm drains as was demonstrated from tracer material observed in the manholes near the Unit 2 SFP.
 
19EnclosureGZA indicated that its preliminary assessment considered flow and transport in theInwood Marble formation to be dominated by porous media flow conditions, and that the fractures were so numerous and interconnected at the site scale that it may not be reasonable to single out and ascribe parameters for fracture flow and transport modeling. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) indicated the possibility that analysis of borehole data (e.g., downhole logging data), pump test and ambient flow results, and observed fracture orientations and spacing using the WELLCAD code could provide insights to discern the presence of significant fracture zones, and their transmissivities (i.e., flow parameters). To this end, NRC staff is working with the USGS to accomplish an independent analysis considering an alternative conceptual model of flow and transport. Additional review and evaluation is expected to ascertain if there could be any significant difference in groundwater flow that would affect the overall assessment of public dose.GZA noted that it was in the process of modifying its dose assessment model to factorin more realistic, site-specific conditions and parameters that were revealed from the recovery well RW-1 pump test and subsequent tracer test results. GZA, USGS, and NRC staff agreed that it was important to effectively consider the groundwater recharge zones and net flow discharge zones, and couple the information with the data developed from the pumping and tracer test; and the transmissivity values for the fracture zone as derived from WELLCAD modeling results. Such effort is expected to provide a more refined estimate of groundwater effluent release and dose assessment. NRC, USGS, Entergy, and GZA staff discussed the development of a site-wide, long-term monitoring program plan to be linked to the dose assessment model. The plan would identify which existing wells and manhole sampling locations could provide the best performance indicators of the groundwater flow system behavior, and provide early detection of any abnormal radiological releases from onsite structures, systems, and components.Based upon the technical discussions, current remediation strategies include thecontinued processing of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool utilizing filter/demineralization processes; the eventual removal of the spent fuel to dry cask storage; and subsequent draining of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool. Such activities are planned to be accomplished by Entergy in 2008. Currently, Entergy has no plans for further pumping tests using RW-1 since it was demonstrated that pump-out of the groundwater through this location will result in cross-contamination of groundwater in the vicinity of Unit 2. Entergy indicated that the groundwater conditions would continue to be evaluated for remediation, as necessary, upon completion of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool activities. Monitoring for tracer material is expected to continue through July 2007, and samplingresults will be reported to the NRC and NYS DEC. GZA agreed to provide well logging, pumping test, and fracture characterization data for USGS's WELLCAD modeling.
 
Follow-on technical meetings will focus on GZA's final monitoring report which incorporates their new dose assessment model; USGS's WELLCAD analyses; and development of a site-wide groundwater monitoring plan.
 
20EnclosureThe NRC monitoring well samples were analyzed by the NRC's contract laboratory, theOak Ridge Institute for Science and Education, Environmental Site Survey and Assessment Program (ORISE/ESSAP) radioanalytical laboratory. The NRC's assessment of Entergy's sample analytical results data indicated that their analytical contractor continued to report sample results that were comparable with the NRC's analytical results. Information to date continues to support that the estimated radiological release fraction through groundwater is negligible relative to NRC regulatory limits.The NRC's ORISE/ESSAP sample results are available in ADAMS under the followingaccession numbers:  ML071900438, ML071900442, ML071900445, ML071900447, ML071900448, ML071900456, ML071900458, ML071900462. To date, sample results from site boundary wells and offsite environmental groundwater sampling locations have not indicated any detectable plant-related radioactivity.4OA6Meetings, including ExitExit Meeting SummaryOn July 13, 2007, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Anthony Vitaleand other Entergy staff members, who acknowledged the inspection results presented.

a. Inspection Scope

Region-based specialist inspectors reviewed Entergy's corrective actions related to theexisting Indian Point alert and notification system (ANS) failures, and reviewed the progress made in the design and installation of the new siren system. Inspection activities were conducted onsite periodically between April 12 and June 28, 2007. This inspection was conducted in accordance with the baseline inspection program deviation authorized by the NRC Executive Director for Operations (EDO) in a memorandum dated October 31, 2005, and renewed by the EDO in a memorandum dated December 11, 2006.A new ANS is being installed around the Indian Point Energy Center to satisfycommitments documented in an NRC Confirmatory Order (dated January 31, 2006) that implements the requirements outlined in the 2005 Energy Policy Act. In January 2007, 9EnclosureEntergy requested an extension of the deadline for completing the ANS project asdescribed in the Confirmatory Order. The Confirmatory Order set a January 30, 2007, deadline for completing installation. Entergy's extension request cited several issues that were beyond their control as the basis for the delay. On January 23, 2007, the NRC granted Entergy's extension request and established April 15, 2007, as the new installation completion date. Entergy conducted a full-system demonstration test of the new ANS on April 12, 2007, and the results of that test failed to meet the acceptance criteria for the new system. On April 13, 2007, Entergy requested another extension which was subsequently denied. On April 23, 2007, the NRC issued a Notice of Violation and civil penalty for Entergy's failure to comply with the siren operability date in the Confirmatory Order.The inspectors conducted the following onsite inspection activities during this quarter.

  • The inspectors observed the full-volume sounding on April 12, 2007 to meet theApril 15, 2007 deadline.*The inspectors reviewed supplemental bench testing done by Entergy's vendorto verify test results from the degraded battery voltage testing performed in the previous quarter.*The inspectors observed and inspected the degraded voltage re-test of one ofthe back-up batteries for the new ANS system. The re-test was done because during the first test there was a problem with the resistive load used for the simulated activation. This testing conducted from May 29, 2007 to June 6, 2007 assured that the battery at the siren would operate at its end-of-life condition after having lost alternating current power for 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.*During all onsite siren inspection activities, the regional inspectors also reviewedthe status of and corrective actions for the current ANS to assure that Entergy was appropriately maintaining the system, including the quarterly full-system growl test of the current ANS conducted on June 28, 2007 to demonstrate its functionality.

b. Findings

a. Inspection Scope

As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems,"and to identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of all items entered into Entergy's corrective action program. The review was accomplished by accessing Entergy's computerized database for CRs and attending CR screening meetings.In accordance with the baseline inspection modules, the inspectors selected correctiveaction program items across the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones for additional follow-up and review. The inspectors assessed Entergy's threshold for problem identification, the adequacy of the cause analyses, extent of condition reviews, operability determinations, and the timeliness of the specified corrective actions. The CRs reviewed during this inspection are listed in theAttachment.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Semi-Annual Trend Review

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a semi-annual review to identify trends that might indicate theexistence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors included in this review repetitive or closely related issues that may have been documented by Entergy outside of the normal corrective action program (CAP), such as trend reports, performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance and CAP backlogs.The inspectors reviewed Entergy's CAP database during the first and second quartersof 2007 to assess the total number and significance of condition reports written in various subject areas, such as equipment or processes, to discern any notable trends in these areas. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's quarterly assessment/trend reports forboth CAP and Quality Assurance for the fourth quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007 to ensure they were appropriately evaluating and trending identified conditions. b.Assessment and ObservationsNo findings of significance were identified.

12EnclosureThe inspectors determined that Entergy was appropriately identifying and evaluatingtrends in identified conditions..3Fitness-For-Duty (FFD) Program (71152 - 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspector reviewed the actions taken by Entergy in response to an employeedisplaying unusual behavior. The actions taken by the employee's supervisor and the Fitness-for-Duty personnel in the Medical Department were reviewed along with Entergy's FFD policies and procedures.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors determined that Entergy tookappropriate actions in accordance with applicable NRC regulatory requirements and internal FFD policies and procedures..4PI&R Annual Sample Review: Procedure Upgrade Project (71152 - 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

On March 2, 2007, the NRC issued the Annual Assessment Letter for Indian Point Units2 and 3. In the letter, the NRC identified a substantive cross-cutting issue in the area of human performance at Unit 2 due to the number of inspection findings that were attributable to procedural adequacy over the assessment period. The inspectors conducted a review of Entergy's action plans and progress in addressing improvements in operations and maintenance procedures. The inspectors reviewed the scope of Entergy's plans in the areas of operations, instrumentation and control, and maintenance to determine if the scope was sufficient to address the identified concerns.

The inspectors also evaluated Entergy's progress on the project and reviewed the metrics and time lines that Entergy had established. A sample of procedures was selected for review to evaluate the quality and scope of the upgrades in the procedures that had been completed. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's self-assessments to ensure they were thorough and critical in nature. A sample of condition reports which contained aspects of procedural adequacy were reviewed to ensure the actions to address the concerns were covered within the scope of the procedure upgrade project and that immediate actions were taken to mitigate the concern where appropriate.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

The inspectors noted that a previous concern associated with the development of theaction plans in the area of instrumentation and controls had been addressed. The inspectors determined the detail and scope of the plans in this area had been enhanced to an appropriate level.

13EnclosureHowever, the inspectors identified concerns associated with the effectiveness ofEntergy's implementation of their corrective actions to date. A review of Entergy's progress identified that the goal for completed procedures had not been achieved in the area of the Operations Department. Some changes to operating procedures had been accomplished to address specific concerns identified through inspection findings and condition reports; however, as of June 11, 2007, no upgraded procedures had been generated in the operations portion of the upgrade project, although per Entergy's plan, 90 out of 548 procedures were scheduled to have been completed by this date. The inspectors also noted that Entergy was still in the process of allocating resources to the project to meet the requirements of the action plans. In the area of operations, only 63 percent of the required personnel had been allocated to the project. The inspectors determined this concern was recognized by Entergy and additional resources were scheduled to be allocated to the project. In addition, Entergy was developing a recovery plan to ensure that the project goals would be met, including detailed metrics to monitorthe progress of the upgrade project.

.5 PI&R Annual Sample Review - Corrective Actions for Utility Tunnel Degradation

a. Inspection Scope

In March 2006, a 20 to 30 gallon per minute leak was identified from a 10 inch fireprotection header in the Indian Point utility tunnel. At the time, the NRC identified that Entergy's corrective actions for previous utility tunnel degradation had been inadequate, and issued non-cited violation 05000247/2006002-03. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's analysis and corrective actions associated with this issue, and a number of other condition reports documenting poor material condition in the utility tunnel (CR IP2-2005-03578, IP2-2006-00893, and IP2-2006-06807). These CRs were initiated to document, investigate, and develop corrective actions to resolve material deficiencies in the systems located in the utility tunnel, most notably with fire protection and city water piping. The inspection included a review of the Utility Tunnel Action Plan, Project Plan, and Technical Report 00263-TR-001, "Functionality and Risk-Significance Evaluation of the Indian Point Unit 1 and 2 Mechanical and Electrical Systems Located in the Utility Tunnel," Revision 0. Additionally, the inspectors performed a walkdown of the utility tunnel to confirm Entergy's observations as documented in CRs and held discussions with cognizant personnel to verify the technical adequacy of the proposed resolution of the deficiencies.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

The inspectors determined that Entergy's causal analysis was acceptable and that anadequate corrective action plan had been developed. While Entergy had replaced the leaking pipe and initiated increased monitoring of the utility tunnel equipment, including periodic ultrasonic testing and visual inspections, the inspectors identified that some of the planned corrective actions had not been implemented and that the material condition 14Enclosureof the utility tunnel had not improved significantly. Because the affected plant systemsand equipment in the utility tunnel were not safety-related, the inspectors determined that Entergy's actions were adequate..6Annual Sample: Safety Conscious Work Environment Corrective Actions (71152 - Unit 2: 1 sample / Unit 3: 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

On December 21, 2006, the NRC issued a letter [ADAMS Ref. ML063560335]requesting that Entergy provide its plan for evaluating a potential chilling effect onsite and its plan of action for addressing the matter to the NRC. This letter and its enclosure documented the results of problem identification and resolution (PI&R) team inspections at the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC). The letter stated that the NRC had become aware of incidents where workers perceived that individuals were treated negatively by management for raising issues. As a result of these incidents, some workers expressed reluctance to raise issues under certain circumstances. While most workers made a distinction between nuclear safety issues and other concerns, the teams noted that some of the illustrative examples provided by plant workers could have nuclear safety implications. However, the teams did not identify any more than minor issues which had not been raised. The teams also noted that Entergy had not fully evaluated the results of a 2006 safety culture assessment to understand the causes of negative responses and declining trends related to the safety conscious work environment onsite.

Entergy responded in a letter dated January 22, 2007 [ADAMS Ref. ML070240242]. Based primarily on the results of interviews conducted by an independent assessment team, Entergy reported that a "perception exists within a segment of the IPEC workforce that they may suffer in some way if they were to raise a safety concern." The results of the interviews were consistent with NRC's observations during PI&R inspections and generally consistent with the results of the independent safety culture assessment. Entergy's letter provided a plan with actions intended to improve the safety consciouswork environment (SCWE). Specifically, the plan included corrective actions to improve communications; identify and prevent retaliation, chilling effect, and the perception of retaliation; enhance the corrective action program; enhance the employee concerns program; and improve the broader work environment at IPEC. Entergy also indicated that metrics would be developed to measure performance at achieving the components of a healthy SCWE and an assessment would be conducted to confirm the effectiveness of its actions in early 2008.The NRC reviewed Entergy's response and concluded that Entergy's completed andplanned diagnostic activities were reasonable to characterize the challenges to the safety conscious work environment onsite and the planned corrective actions were appropriate. The results of the NRC's review were documented in a letter to Entergy dated February 26, 2007 [ADAMS Ref. ML070570518]. This letter also stated that the NRC would monitor Entergy's corrective actions through baseline inspection activities.

15EnclosureIn June 2007, the inspectors performed PI&R sample inspections on each operating unitto review the status of Entergy's corrective actions related to the SCWE at Indian Point.

The inspection included over 50 interviews and discussions with technicians, staff, supervisory and management personnel in a representative cross section of work groups. The inspectors also attended selected meetings and reviewed supporting documentation for corrective actions.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

The inspectors concluded that Entergy's progress on corrective actions related to theSCWE was adequate. The inspectors observed that Entergy implemented a number of actions to address previously identified issues affecting the work environment, as revealed in a 2006 safety culture assessment, NRC inspections, and an independent assessment conducted on behalf of Entergy.Based on interview results and document reviews, the inspectors determined thatseveral actions were effective in communicating the site's commitment to a safety conscious work environment. These actions included:*Site Vice President meetings with small groups;*Site-wide communications on safety conscious work environment; and

  • Changes to site schedules that allowed supervisors and managers to spendmore time in the field.The inspectors identified two corrective actions that were not yet effective. Both ofthese were associated with Entergy's actions to detect and prevent retaliation, chilling effect, and the perception of retaliation. These items constituted issues of minor significance, because there was no actual impact on the work environment. *First, the inspectors identified a deficiency in the implementation of the ExecutiveReview Board (ERB), which was established to review proposed personnel actions to ensure: they were not in violation of 10 CFR 50.7 employee protection regulations; they did not involve retaliation; and any potential chilling effect was addressed. Specifically, the inspectors identified that the potential for retaliation or a chilling effect for raising safety issues was not considered for some adverse personnel actions that went before the ERB. In response to this observation, Entergy entered the issue in the corrective action program with an action for the ERB to review the personnel action cases for the potential for retaliation or a chilling effect related to raising safety issues. *Secondly, the inspectors identified that the Executive Protocol Group (EPG) wasnot fully meeting its charter in providing advice to senior management on issues that may be related to retaliation or a chilling effect. For example, the EPG had not reviewed a specific event involving an individual who felt reluctant to raise issues based on the actions of a site manager. Additionally, the inspectors 16Enclosureobserved that the EPG was not reviewing some data and trending information asspecified in its process document. For example, the EPG had not reviewed SCWE-related data from condition reports or findings from surveys and assessments. Entergy made several enhancements to the EPG meeting process to incorporate the inspectors' observations.The inspectors also observed that Entergy's process for tracking and trending conditionreports (CRs) with potential SCWE aspects was not timely. Specifically, the review of CRs with SCWE-related trend codes was being performed on a 6-month basis, which may not be timely for management to respond to and mitigate new issues or trends that could affect the work environment. During interviews with the inspectors, all personnel indicated that they would raiseissues that they recognized as a nuclear safety concerns. Some individuals stated they had heard of others who may be hesitant to raise issues, due to events that had happened in the past. A few individuals stated that they may not raise low level issues, because they did not believe the issues would be corrected.When questioned about the site's initiatives in the area of SCWE, most individuals wereaware of the ongoing efforts. Some believed that the corrective actions were having a positive effect. Others were more skeptical of the corrective actions, based on their observations or what they had heard about statements made by management. Some personnel indicated that they were awaiting a demonstrated commitment to a SCWE, rather than just communications.The inspectors noted that Entergy has a number of actions planned to continue itsprogress in improving the SCWE onsite. These actions include:*Departmental action plans to address the safety culture aspects of a 2007Entergy Employee Survey;*A second round of Site Vice President meetings with small groups to continuethe dialogue on SCWE;*Ongoing efforts to conduct facilitated discussions and additional activities toimprove the work environment in the Instrumentation and Controls work group;

and*Refresher training on SCWE.

The inspectors observed that Entergy's self-assessment of actions related to SCWE have been self-critical. For example, Indian Point management held a meeting in April 2007, to discuss and take corrective actions for certain events and management behaviors that were not conducive to establishing and maintaining a healthy safety conscious work environment onsite. Additionally, a recent Entergy corporate assessment and a quality assurance audit identified opportunities for improvement in this area.

17Enclosure4OA3Event Followup (71153 - 2 samples).1(Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000247/2006006-00, Automatic Actuation ofBoth Motor-Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pumps After Local Reset of the 21 MainFeedwater Pump During Corrective Maintenance and Troubleshooting of the TurbineGovernor ValveOn November 30, 2006, and on December 1, 2006, both motor-driven auxiliaryfeedwater pumps received automatic actuation signals during troubleshooting of the 21 main boiler feedwater pump high pressure steam governor valve. At the time, the plant was shutdown in hot standby, both main feedwater pumps were isolated, and the auxiliary feedwater system was in operation. Entergy determined the most likely cause of the actuations was a malfunction in the 21 main boiler feedwater pump turbine oil pressure switch. Because the auxiliary feedwater system was in operation prior to the start signal, there was minimal impact on plant operation. Entergy entered this issue into the corrective action program (CRs IP2-06-06885 and -06944). The inspectors reviewed LER 05000247/2006006-00, Entergy's causal analysis, and the associated corrective actions. No findings of significance or violations of NRC requirements were identified. This LER is closed.

.2 (Closed) LER 05000247/2006007-00, Plant Condition Prohibited by TechnicalSpecifications due to Operation of Containment Pressure Relief Valves WhileSurveillance Requirement Not MetOn December 5, 2006, Entergy determined that three containment isolation valves hadbeen inoperable, but not closed and deactivated as required by TS.

Specifically, valve travel for these valves was not limited to less than 60 degrees from the fully closed position, as required by TS. The three valves, PCV-1190, -1191, and -1192, are part of the containment pressure relief system and are used to relieve containment pressure to keep internal pressure within normal operating limits. Entergy determined that this condition was caused by a design deficiency which resulted in failure of a retaining clip used to limit valve travel. Entergy entered this issue into the corrective action program (CR IP2-06-06322) and initiated actions to correct the valve design deficiency. The inspectors reviewed LER 05000247/2006007-00, Entergy's causal analysis, and the associated corrective actions. This issue was determined to be a violation of minor significance, because a subsequent calculation completed by Entergy demonstrated that the valves would have been able to perform their safety function even if travel was not limited to less than 60 degrees, as required. This LER is closed.

18Enclosure4OA5Other Activities.1 Groundwater Contamination Investigation

a. Inspection Scope

Continued inspection of Entergy's plans, procedures, and characterization activitiesaffecting the contaminated groundwater condition at Indian Point, relative to NRC regulatory requirements, was authorized by the NRC Executive Director for Operations in a Reactor Oversight Process deviation memorandum dated October 31, 2005 (ADAMS Accession number ML053010404) and renewed on December 11, 2006 (ADAMS Accession number ML063480016). Accordingly, continuing oversight of Entergy's progress has been conducted throughout this quarterly inspection report period consisting of onsite inspections, independent split sample analyses of selected monitoring well samples, review of action plan completion status, and periodic communications with Federal, State, and local government stakeholders.Inspectors conducted an onsite review of tracer test sampling results on May 9 and 10,2007. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation officials observed and participated in the proceedings. The onsite meeting provided for an independent hydrology review of Entergy's tracer test findings and associated re-evaluation of the current site groundwater model.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

The objective of the tracer test, as mentioned above, was to identify groundwater flowand direction by injecting fluorescent tracer dye into a subsurface location representing the source of leakage, and tracking its natural groundwater migration as it was intercepted by existing monitoring wells and storm drain locations. The fluorescein dye was injected into a specially designed tracer injection co-located near monitoring well MW-30, adjacent to the Unit 2 spent fuel pool (SFP). On February 8, 2007, the tracer test began with injection of approximately 200 gallons of dye at a subsurface elevation equivalent to the bottom of the Unit 2 spent fuel pool. The natural groundwater migration of this tracer has been tracked for approximately 13 weeks by measuring the dye content in either charcoal samplers or water samples collected at selected onsite monitoring wells and storm drain locations.The tracer test was designed as an analogue to the Unit 2 SFP leakage. Entergy'shydrology consultant, GZA, described (through its visualizations) how the tracer entered the unsaturated zone above the local water table similar to the abnormal releases from the Unit 2 SFP, and moved horizontally to adjacent wells before moving vertically into the saturated zone. GZA also noted the roles of backfills which provide preferential paths to the storm drains as was demonstrated from tracer material observed in the manholes near the Unit 2 SFP.

19EnclosureGZA indicated that its preliminary assessment considered flow and transport in theInwood Marble formation to be dominated by porous media flow conditions, and that the fractures were so numerous and interconnected at the site scale that it may not be reasonable to single out and ascribe parameters for fracture flow and transport modeling. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) indicated the possibility that analysis of borehole data (e.g., downhole logging data), pump test and ambient flow results, and observed fracture orientations and spacing using the WELLCAD code could provide insights to discern the presence of significant fracture zones, and their transmissivities (i.e., flow parameters). To this end, NRC staff is working with the USGS to accomplish an independent analysis considering an alternative conceptual model of flow and transport. Additional review and evaluation is expected to ascertain if there could be any significant difference in groundwater flow that would affect the overall assessment of public dose.GZA noted that it was in the process of modifying its dose assessment model to factorin more realistic, site-specific conditions and parameters that were revealed from the recovery well RW-1 pump test and subsequent tracer test results. GZA, USGS, and NRC staff agreed that it was important to effectively consider the groundwater recharge zones and net flow discharge zones, and couple the information with the data developed from the pumping and tracer test; and the transmissivity values for the fracture zone as derived from WELLCAD modeling results. Such effort is expected to provide a more refined estimate of groundwater effluent release and dose assessment. NRC, USGS, Entergy, and GZA staff discussed the development of a site-wide, long-term monitoring program plan to be linked to the dose assessment model. The plan would identify which existing wells and manhole sampling locations could provide the best performance indicators of the groundwater flow system behavior, and provide early detection of any abnormal radiological releases from onsite structures, systems, and components.Based upon the technical discussions, current remediation strategies include thecontinued processing of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool utilizing filter/demineralization processes; the eventual removal of the spent fuel to dry cask storage; and subsequent draining of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool. Such activities are planned to be accomplished by Entergy in 2008. Currently, Entergy has no plans for further pumping tests using RW-1 since it was demonstrated that pump-out of the groundwater through this location will result in cross-contamination of groundwater in the vicinity of Unit 2. Entergy indicated that the groundwater conditions would continue to be evaluated for remediation, as necessary, upon completion of the Unit 1 spent fuel pool activities. Monitoring for tracer material is expected to continue through July 2007, and samplingresults will be reported to the NRC and NYS DEC. GZA agreed to provide well logging, pumping test, and fracture characterization data for USGS's WELLCAD modeling.

Follow-on technical meetings will focus on GZA's final monitoring report which incorporates their new dose assessment model; USGS's WELLCAD analyses; and development of a site-wide groundwater monitoring plan.

20EnclosureThe NRC monitoring well samples were analyzed by the NRC's contract laboratory, theOak Ridge Institute for Science and Education, Environmental Site Survey and Assessment Program (ORISE/ESSAP) radioanalytical laboratory. The NRC's assessment of Entergy's sample analytical results data indicated that their analytical contractor continued to report sample results that were comparable with the NRC's analytical results. Information to date continues to support that the estimated radiological release fraction through groundwater is negligible relative to NRC regulatory limits.The NRC's ORISE/ESSAP sample results are available in ADAMS under the followingaccession numbers: ML071900438, ML071900442, ML071900445, ML071900447, ML071900448, ML071900456, ML071900458, ML071900462. To date, sample results from site boundary wells and offsite environmental groundwater sampling locations have not indicated any detectable plant-related radioactivity.4OA6Meetings, including ExitExit Meeting SummaryOn July 13, 2007, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Anthony Vitaleand other Entergy staff members, who acknowledged the inspection results presented.
