SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

IR 05000 498/20 13003 , 05000 499/20 13003; 03/31/2013

- 06/29/2013

South Texas Project Electric Generating Station, Units 1 and 2

, Integrated Resident and Regional Report;

Operability Evaluations and Functionality Assessments.

The report covered a 3

-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by region-based inspectors.

The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process." The cross-cutting aspect is determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0310, "Components Within the Cross-Cutting Areas." Findings for which the significance determination process does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC

's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG

-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 4, dated December 2006.

A. NRC-Identified Findings and Self-Revealing Findings

Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity

Green.

The inspectors identified a Green finding for the licensee's failure to follow Procedure 0PGP04

-ZA-0307, "Preparation of Calculations," Revision 4. Specifically

, two parts were not followed, step 3.1.5.4 states all design calculations SHALL be identified AND their sources indicated by providing an adequate title/description; and step 3.2.2 which instructs performing a peer check review of the calculation for completeness, clarity, and accuracy.

As part of a routine walkdown of the spent fuel pool area, the inspectors identified several issues of concern regarding the licensee's spent fuel pool mitigation strategy equipment which implements the fill and/or spray strategy. Specifically, the as-designed equipment did not match the as-installed configuration and the as-designed calculations did not account for standard engineering practices to ensure that all calculation considerations were taken into account. The licensee captured these issues in Condition Reports 13

-3767 and 13

-5006. Corrective actions included updating the calculations to include standard engineering practices and ensuring that the design matched the as-installed configuration.

The failure to follow Procedure 0PGP04

-ZA-0307 to ensure an adequate design calculation and review for accuracy was a performance deficiency. This finding was more than minor because it adversely affected the design control attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers such as fuel cladding protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. The inspectors performed the significance determination process using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," which evaluates the finding using Appendix L, "B.5.b Significance Determination Process", "Table 2

- Significance Characterization," and determined the finding was of very low safety significance because the finding did not result in an unrecoverable mitigating strategy due to the unavailability of post-accident cooling systems for the spent fuel pool. No cross-cutting aspects are assigned to this finding because the calculations were performed in 2007 and 2008 and are not considered indicative of current performance (Section 1R15).

B. Licensee-Identified Violations

None

REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status

Unit 1 began the inspection period at 100 percent rated thermal power and remained there until May 10, 2013, when the plant shut down for Reliability Outage 1P1301 to work on the main generator stator cooling water system. On May 15, 2013, Unit 1 commenced a reactor startup and reached 100 percent rated thermal power on May 17, 2013.

Unit 2 began the inspection period in Forced Outage 2F1302 as a result of a fire in main transformer 2A , which resulted in an automatic reactor trip.

On April 12, 2013, Unit 2 commenced a reactor startup and achieved Mode 1. While at approximately 10 percent rated thermal power

, the licensee performed post

-maintenance testing on the main turbine. During the testing

, main turbine bearing number 2 temperature spiked causing control room alarms, and resulted in operators initiating a manual turbine trip. Based on indications of bearing damage , the licensee cooled the reactor coolant system back down to Mode 5 on April 14, 2013 , to repair bearing number 2. On April 19, 2013, Unit 2 commenced a reactor startu p , achieved Mode 1 on April 20, 2013, and reached 100 percent rated thermal power on April 23, 2013

REACTOR SAFETY

Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity

1R01 Adverse Weather Protection

.1 Summer Readiness for Offsite and Alternate

-AC Power Systems

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a review of preparations for summer weather for selected systems, including conditions that could lead to loss

-of-offsite power and conditions that could result from high temperatures. The inspectors reviewed the procedures affecting these areas and the communications protocols between the transmission system operator and the plant to verify that the appropriate information was being exchanged when issues arose that could affect the offsite power system. Examples of aspects considered in the inspectors' review included:

The coordination between the transmission system operator and the plant

's operations personnel during off

-normal or emergency events The explanations for the events The estimates of when the offsite power system would be returned to a normal state The notifications from the transmission system operator to the plant when the offsite power system was returned to normal During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant-specific design features and the procedures used by plant personnel to mitigate or respond to adverse weather conditions. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the UFSAR and performance requirements for systems selected for inspection

, and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant-specific procedures. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. The inspectors also reviewed corrective action program items to verify that the licensee was identifying adverse weather issues at an appropriate threshold and entering them into their corrective action program in accordance with station corrective action procedures.

The inspectors' reviews focused specifically on the following plant systems:

On May 3, 201 3, the inspectors completed a review of the offsite and onsite power systems

, including the Units 1 and 2 engineered safety features transformers

main transformers
auxiliary transformers
and standby transformers. Inspectors also completed walkdowns of the switchyard and reviewed the return

-to-service plan of action for main transformer 2A after Forced Outage 2F1302.

These activities constitute completion of one sample to evaluate the readiness of offsite and alternate

-ac power for summer weather, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Readiness to Cope with External Flooding

a. Inspection Scope

On June 10, 2013, 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 UFSAR for features intended to mitigate the potential for flooding from external factors. As par t 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 n inspection of the protected area to identify any modification to the site that would inhibit site drainage during a probable maximum precipitation event or allow water ingress past a barrier. The inspectors also reviewed the abnormal operating procedure for mitigating the design basis flood to ensure it could be implemented as written. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute completion of one external flooding sample

, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

, auxiliary feedwater system train A June 14, 2013, Unit 1, component cooling water system train B 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 affect the function of the system, and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, UFSAR, technical specification requirements, administrative technical specification s, outstanding work orders, condition reports, and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of performing their intended functions. The inspectors also inspected 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 with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute completion of three partial system walkdown sample s , as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05. b. Finding s No findings were identified.

.2 Complete Walkdown

a. Inspection Scope

Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute completion of six operability evaluations inspection samples

, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-05.

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspectors identified a Green finding for the licensee's failure to follow Procedure 0PGP04

-ZA-0307, "Preparation of Calculations," Revision 4. Specifically two parts were not followed

, step 3.1.5.4 states all design calculations SHALL be identified AND their sources indicated by providing an adequate title/description; and step 3.2.2 which instructs performing a peer check review of the calculation for completeness , clarity, and accuracy.

Description.

As part of a routine walkdown of the spent fuel pool area

, the inspectors identified several items of concern regarding the licensee's spent fuel pool mitigation strategy equipment. The inspectors determined that the licensee did not follow Procedure 0PGP04

-ZA-0307 for the implementation of the fill and/or spray strategy. Specifically, the as

-designed equipment did not match the as

-installed configuration and the as-designed calculations did not account for standard engineering practices to ensure that all considerations were accounted for. For example, a single 2 1/2 inch fire hose versus two 2 1/2 inch fire hoses

200 gpm versus 250 gpm
and stresses associated with the weight of the hoses, water, fittings, etc. The licensee captured these issues in Condition Reports 13

-3767 and 13

-5006. Corrective actions included updating the calculations to include standard engineering practices and ensuring that the design matched the as

-installed configuration.

Analysis.

The failure to follow Procedure 0PGP04

-ZA-0307 to ensure an adequate design calculation and review for accuracy was a performance deficiency. This finding was more than minor because it adversely affected the design control attribute of the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers such as fuel cladding protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Design control was affected in the area of plant modification s that maintain post

-accident cooling of the spent fuel pool cooling system. Specifically, the field installation did not match the design calculations and those design calculations did not include an evaluation for all the calculation components used

, which resulted in significant errors requiring the calculations be revised.

The licensee entered this finding into the corrective action program as Condition Reports 13-3767 and 13

-5006.

The inspectors performed the significance determination process using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609

, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," dated June 19, 2012, because the finding affected the Barrier Integrity cornerstone while the plant was at power. Attachment 4 evaluates the finding using Appendix L, "B.5.b Significance Determination Process

", "Table 2 - Significance Characterization,"

dated December 24, 2009, as a finding of very low safety significance because the finding did not result in an unrecoverable mitigating strategy due to the unavailability of post-accident cooling systems for the spent fuel pool

. No cross-cutting aspects are assigned to this finding because the calculations were performed in 2007 and 2008

, and , therefore , are not considered indicative of current performance.

Enforcement.

This finding does not involve enforcement action because no violation of a regulatory requirement was identified. Because this finding does not involve a violation and is of very low safety significance, it is identified as a finding.

The inspectors evaluated these activities for the following (as applicable):

The effect of testing on the plant had been adequately addressed; testing was adequate for the maintenance performed Acceptance criteria were clear and demonstrated operational readiness; test instrumentation was appropriate The inspectors evaluated the activities against the technical specification s, the UFSAR , 10 CFR Part 50 requirements, licensee procedures, and various NRC generic communications to ensure that the test results adequately ensured that the equipment met the licensing basis and design requirements. In addition, the inspectors reviewed corrective action documents associated with post

-maintenance tests to determine whether the licensee was identifying problems and entering them in the corrective action program and that the problems were being corrected commensurate with their importance to safety. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute completion of five post-maintenance testing inspection samples , as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.19-05.

4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution

.1 Routine Review of Identification and Resolution of Problems

a. Inspection Scope

As part of the various baseline inspection procedures discussed in previous sections of this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify that they were being entered into the licensee's corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and addressed. The inspectors reviewed attributes that included the complete and accurate identification of the problem; the timely correction, commensurate with the safety significance; the evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent of condition reviews, and previous occurrences reviews; and the classification, prioritization, focus, and timeliness of corrective actions. Minor issues entered into the licensee's corrective action program because of the inspectors' observations are included in the attached list of documents reviewed. 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 and documented in Section 1 of this report.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews

a. Inspection Scope

In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific human performance issues for follow

-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the licensee's corrective action program.

The inspectors performed these daily reviews as part of their daily plant status monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Semi-Annual Trend Review

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a review of the licensee's corrective action program and associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors focused their review on repetitive equipment issues, but also considered the results of daily corrective action item screening discussed in Section 4OA2.2

, above, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human performance results. The inspectors nominally considered the 6

-month period of January 2 013 through June 2013, although some examples expanded beyond those dates where the scope of the trend warranted.

The inspectors also included issues documented outside the normal corrective action program in major equipment problem lists, repetitive and/or rework maintenance lists, departmental problem/challenges lists, system health reports, quality assurance audit/surveillance reports, self

-assessment reports, and Maintenance Rule assessments. The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensee's corrective action program trending reports. Corrective actions associated with a sample of the issues identified in the licensee's trending reports were reviewed for adequacy. These activities constitute completion of one single semi

-annual trend inspection sample , as defined in Inspection Procedure 71152-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

4OA3 Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

(71153)

.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000499/2013

-00 2-00 and 05000499/2013 01 , "Reactor Trip Due to Main Transformer Lockout Relay Trip" On January 8, 2013, a failure of the Unit 2 main transformer 2A occurred which resulted in an automatic reactor trip. The failure of the main transformer resulted in a fire and damage to the transformer. The fire deluge system for the main transformer automatically activated and the onsite fire brigade responded. No offsite assistance was required. An Unusual Event was declared for Fire or Explosion in the Protected Area or Switchyard Which Affects Normal Operation that resulted in damage to equipment necessary for normal plant operation. As a result of normal site electrical bus alignment, the loss of the main transformer resulted in the loss of the unit auxiliary transformer and, therefore, loss of power to Class 1E 4160

-Vac busses 2A and 2C; the associated standby diesel generators started as required and loaded their respective busses. Bus 2B remained powered from offsite during the event. As a result of the partial loss of power, all reactor coolant pumps tripped and the plant was cooled down via natural circulation using auxiliary feedwater and the steam generator power operated relief valves. The Unusual Event was terminated after verification that no fire hazards existed, plant conditions stabilized, and offsite power was restored.

The most likely cause of the transformer failure was an internal electrical fault on the phase C high voltage windings. Corrective actions included replacing main transformer 2A with an on

-hand spare and implementing a large equipment asset management process. Revision 1 was submitted to describe and explain why a control room operator inappropriately switched the pressurizer master pressure controller from automatic to manual mode. It was determined that the control room operator's action did not extend or complicate the event.

The licensee event report was reviewed. No findings or violations of NRC requirements were identified.

.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000499/2013-003-00 and 0500499/2013

01 , "Operational Mode Change Prohibited by Limiting Condition for Operation 3.0.4 with Limiting Conditions for Operation Unknowingly Not Met for Inoperable Essential Cooling Water Pump" On January 14, 2013, after performing system trending, the licensee's essential cooling water system engineer identified a temperature excursion had occurred on essential cooling water pump 2B lower motor bearing on January 6, 2013. Essential cooling water pump 2B motor lower bearing temperature began to increase from 100 degrees Fahrenheit at about 11:00 p.m., peaked at 163 degrees Fahrenheit at 11:18 p.m., and then retur ned to normal by 1:25 a.m. on January 7, 2013. The bearing temperature did not reach the alarm level setpoint of 185 degrees Fahrenheit, therefore, no indication was provided to the control room operators of the elevated temperature

. However, t he system engineer initiated a condition report and vibration data was obtained on January 14, 2013. The data revealed increased vibration in the motor bearings and led to the determination that essential cooling water pump 2B was inoperable because the licensee did not have reasonable assurance that the pump would meet its 30-day mission time.

Although the operations staff was not aware of the temperature excursion and the pump remained in operation from December 26, 2012 through January 14, 2013

, until the licensee declared the pump inoperable, Unit 2 had transitioned from Mode 2 to Mode 1 with an inoperable essential cooling water pump and supported equipment

. Therefore , the mode change violated the limiting conditions for operation (LCO 3.0.4) and this event was reportable under 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(8) for an operation or condition prohibited by the plant's technical specifications. The licensee performed a root cause investigation and determined the root cause to be insufficient motor shaft endplay resulted in axial forces on the lower bearing

, which caused fatigue in the material at the bearing race surface and spalling of the bearing inner race.

When the licensee's quality assurance department reviewed the root cause investigation and the circumstances surrounding the insufficient motor endplay

, they determined that similar work was performed on the Unit 1 essential cooling water pump 1C. Therefore, essential cooling water pump 1C should have been included in the extent of condition review. The licensee revised the root cause investigation to include the information identified by the quality assurance department. In addition, the licensee determined that all essential cooling water pump motors were subject to the same insufficient motor endplay, however, none had experienced the rapid temperature excursion while in operation, and

, therefore, remained operable. The licensee submitted Revision 1 of the licensee event report to include all of the essential cooling water pump motors as affected components. The licensee has planned maintenance to restore each essential cooling water pump motor to the motor endplay tolerances recommended by the vendor.

The licensee event report was reviewed. No findings or violations of NRC requirements were identified.
