SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

IR 05000321/2013002, 05000366/2013002; 01/01/2013-03/31/2013; Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, Post-Maintenance Testing

The report covered a three-month period of inspection by three resident inspectors, three health physics inspectors, and a reactor inspector. There was one self revealing violation identified and documented in this report. The significance of inspection findings are indicated by their color (i.e. greater than Green, or Green, White, Yellow, Red) and determined using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, "Significance Determination Process" (SDP) dated June 2, 2011.

The cross-cutting aspect was determined using IMC 0310, "Components Within The Cross-Cutting Areas" dated October 28, 2011. All violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement P olicy dated January 28, 2013. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operations of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process" revision 4.

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

A self-revealing Green NCV of Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4. "Procedures," was identified on March 9, 2013, when the licensee failed to perform post maintenance activities appropriate to the circumstances to verify "2A" emergency diesel generator (EDG) lube oil heat exchanger integrity at normal plant service water operating pressure prior to declaring the "2A" EDG operable. This violation has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program as condition report (CR) 603356.

The licensee replaced the gasket on the lube oil heat exchanger waterbox flange and on March 10, 2013, "2A" EDG was returned to operable status.

Failure to perform post maintenance activities appropriate to the circumstances to verify "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger integrity at normal service water operating pressure prior to declaring the "2A" EDG operable was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency was more-than-minor because it adversely affected the equipment performance attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the "2A" EDG was rendered unavailable after leakage developed at plant service water pressure. The inspectors evaluated the finding in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings", June 19, 2012, using Table 2, "Cornerstones Affected by Degradation Condition or Programmatic Weakness." The finding affected the mitigating systems cornerstone and required further evaluation using IMC 0609 Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," June 19, 2012.

Based on Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," Section A, "Mitigating SSCs and Functionality", all four questions were answered 'no' and thus this finding screened as

Green.

The inspectors determined this finding had a cross cutting aspect in the human performance area associated with resources - training and sufficiently qualified personnel because senior reactor operators did not ensure that the post maintenance test conditions were at maximum system operating pressure as required by procedure. H.2(b) (Section 1R19)

A violation of very low safety significance that was identified by the licensee has been reviewed by the NRC. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program. This violation and corrective action tracking number is listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status

Unit 1 began the inspection period at or near 100 percent rated thermal power (RTP).

On February 10, operators inserted a manual reactor scram due to a condenser tube leak. Operators restarted the unit on February 25, and returned the unit to 100 percent RTP on February 28. On March 17, operators reduced unit power to 60 percent RTP in response to isolation of the A feedwater heater train. The unit returned to 100 percent RTP on March 18. The unit operated at or near 100 percent RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at or near 100 percent RTP. On February 12, operators shut down the unit for a scheduled refueling outage. Operators restarted the unit on March 17, and returned the unit to 100 percent RTP on March 24. The unit operated at or near 100 percent RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

b. Findings

Introduction:

A self-revealing Green NCV of Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4 "Procedures," was identified on March 9, 2013, when the licensee failed to perform post maintenance activities appropriate to the circumstances to verify "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger integrity at normal plant service water operating pressure prior to declaring

the "2A" EDG operable.

Description:

On July 4, 2012, the "2A" EDG tripped due to high crank case vacuum. The licensee performed an apparent cause investigation (CAR 195252), which identified tube leakage of plant service water into the "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger as the cause of the trip. As an interim action, prior to the replacement of the heat exchanger, the plant service water valve for the "2A" EDG, 2P41-F339A, was taken out of its normal closed position and placed in open in order to minimize leakage of plant service water into the EDG lube oil system. Opening 2P41-F339A allowed continuous plant service water flow through the EDG heat exchangers and decreased plant service water pressure at the diesel from approximately 104 psig to 35 psig. On February 14, 2013 the 2A EDG was removed from service to replace the lube oil heat exchanger per work order SNC 417842. On February 22, 2013, following a surveillance run and a pressure test of the new heat exchanger while the EDG was in operation, the "2A" EDG was declared operable. During and subsequent to this pressure test, service water system pressure was approximately 35 psig. On March 9, 2013, the clearance order maintaining 2P41-F339A open was released and 2P41-F339A was returned to its normal closed position, increasing plant service water pressure at the "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger to greater than 100 psig. Upon closing 2P41-F339A, a plant service water leak developed on the lube oil heat exchanger waterbox flange joint. On March 9, at 1305, plant service water to the "2A" EDG was isolated and the EDG was declared out of service due to leakage from the heat exchanger. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as CR 603356. The licensee replaced the gasket on the lube oil heat exchanger waterbox flange and on March 10, 2013, "2A" EDG was returned to operable status.

Analysis:

Failure to perform post maintenance activities appropriate to the circumstances to verify "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger integrity at normal service water operating pressure prior to declaring the "2A" EDG operable was a performance deficiency. Specifically, 42IT-TET-001-0, "Requirements for Pressure Testing of Piping and Components," requires in part "Systems designed to operate at different pressures under several modes of plant operation shall be subject to a system leakage test (operation pressure test) within the test boundary defined by the operation mode with the higher pressure." The pressure test performed to establish operability on February 22 was performed at service water system pressure of approximately 35 psig instead of the higher normal operating pressure of greater than 100 psig with valve 2P41-F339A closed. When the "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger was subjected to the higher pressure by closing 2P41-F339A, leakage immediately developed and the EDG was declared inoperable. This performance deficiency was more-than-minor because it adversely affected equipment performance attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the "2A" EDG was rendered unavailable after leakage developed at the higher plant service water pressure. The inspectors evaluated the finding in accordance with IMC 0609, 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," June 19, 2012, using Table 2 Cornerstones Affected by Degradation Condition or Programmatic Weakness. The finding affected the mitigating systems cornerstone and required further evaluation using IMC 0609 Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," June 19, 2012. Based on Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," Section A. Mitigating SSCs and Functionality, all four questions were answered 'no' and thus this finding screens as Green. The inspectors determined this finding had a cross cutting aspect in the human performance area associated with resources - training and sufficiently qualified personnel because senior reactor operators did not ensure that the post maintenance test conditions were at maximum system operating pressure as required by procedure. H.2(b)

Enforcement:

Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4.1, "Procedures," requires, in part, that procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, section 9.a requires that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly preplanned and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances. Procedure 42IT-TET-001-0, "Requirements for Pressure Testing of Piping and Components," requires in part, "Systems designed to operate at different pressures under several modes of plant operation shall be subject to a system leakage test (operation pressure test) within the test boundary defined by the operation mode with the higher pressure."

Contrary to the above, on February 22, 2013, the licensee failed to implement procedure 42IT-TET-001-0 during maintenance of the "2A" EDG lube heat exchanger. The pressure test performed to establish operability on February 22 was performed at service water system pressure of approximately 35 psig instead of the higher normal operating pressure of greater than 100 psig with valve 2P41-F339A closed. On March 9, 2013, when the "2A" EDG lube oil heat exchanger was subjected to the higher pressure by closing 2P41-F339A, leakage immediately developed and the EDG was declared inoperable. The licensee replaced the gasket on the lube oil heat exchanger waterbox flange and on March 10, 2013, "2A" EDG was returned to operable status. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as CR 603356. (NCV 05000366/2013002-01; "Failure to perform appropriate post maintenance test on "2A" EDG.")

1R20 Refueling and Other Outage Activities

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed the inspection activities described below for the Unit 1 forced outage from February 10 through February 25, 2013, and the Unit 2 refueling outage from February 12, 2013 through March 17, 2013. The inspectors confirmed that, when the licensee removed equipment from service, the licensee maintained defense-in-depth commensurate with the outage risk control plan for key safety functions and applicable technical specifications. The inspectors also verified that configuration changes due to emergent work and unexpected conditions were controlled in accordance with the outage risk control plan. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment. Inspection activities included:

  • Reviewed the licensee's integrated risk control plan prior to the Unit 2 outage to verify that activities, systems, and/or components which could cause unexpected reactivity changes were identified in the outage risk plan.
  • Observed portions of the plant shutdown and cooldown to verify that the technical specification cooldown restrictions were followed.
  • Reviewed reactor coolant system pressure, level and temperature instruments to verify that the instruments provided accurate indication and that allowances were made for instrumentation errors.
  • Verified that outage work did not impact the operation of the spent fuel cooling system.
  • Reviewed the status and configuration of electrical systems to verify that those systems met technical specification requirements and the licensee's outage risk control plan.
  • Observed decay heat removal parameters to verify that the system was properly functioning and providing cooling to the core.
  • Reviewed system alignments to verify that the flow paths, configurations and alternative means for inventory addition were consistent with the outage risk plan.
  • Reviewed selected control room operations to verify that the licensee was controlling reactivity in accordance with the technical specifications.
  • Observed the licensee's control of containment penetrations to verify that the requirements of the technical specifications were met.
  • Reviewed the licensee's plans for changing plant configuration to verify that technical specifications, license conditions and other requirements, commitments and administrative procedure prerequisites were met prior to changing plant configuration.
  • Inspected containment for as-found degraded conditions.

b. Findings

Introduction:

An URI was identified when on February 26, 2013, licensee personnel discovered leaking water under Unit 1 reactor vessel during 920 psig pressure test walkdowns. The licensee entered this abnormal condition in their corrective action program as CR 596805. Unit 1 power ascension proceeded without identifying the leakage source.

Description:

On February 26, 2013, during the Unit 1 reactor coolant system 920 psig normal operating temperature primary containment drywell walkdown, licensee personnel discovered a 15 drop-per-minute water leak under the reactor vessel. At the time of the discovery, personnel within the drywell were unable to go under Unit 1 reactor vessel to identify the source of the leak because they did not meet radiological work permit dress requirements for going under vessel. The leak description was reported to the sites Outage Command Center and CR 596805 was initiated. CR 596805 documented that the leak was accepted by management. Justification for accepting the leak is documented in technical evaluation 596805, which states in part "No steam leaks were visible, no sounds of leakage were heard, through indirect observation the water appeared to be cold. The drywell atmosphere consisted of humid air and due to the drywell cooler discharging in the area, it appeared to be condensation.

Based on his judgment, it did not appear to the individual performing the walkdown to be pressure boundary leakage." Hatch Unit 1 Technical Specification 3.4.4, "Reactor Coolant System Operational Leakage," limits reactor coolant system leakage to no pressure boundary leakage. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Actions," requires in part that measures shall be established to assure that conditions

adverse to quality are promptly identified. Because the licensee accepted the leak without determining the source, the inspectors need more information to determine if the abnormal condition (leak identified under Unit 1 reactor vessel) constitutes a violation of Technical Specification 3.4.4 for pressure boundary leakage, and/or a violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVI, for not promptly identifying a condition adverse to quality. To resolve this URI inspection of Unit 1 primary containment drywell is required to identify the source of the leak described in CR 596805. URI 05000321/2013002-02, "Unit 1 Under Vessel Leak Source Not Identified."

a. Inspection Scope

Work Planning and Exposure Tracking The inspectors reviewed planned work activities and their collective exposure estimates for the current Hatch Unit 2 refueling outage 22 (H2R22), the unplanned forced Unit 1 outage and the previous H2R21. The inspectors reviewed ALARA planning packages for the following high collective exposure tasks:

drywell activities including insulation, temporary ventilation, subpile room plate shielding, steam chase work, and scaffolds. ALARA planning packages for torus proper diving was also reviewed. For the selected tasks, the inspectors reviewed established dose goals and discussed assumptions regarding the bases for the current estimates with responsible ALARA planners. The inspectors evaluated the incorporation of exposure reduction initiatives and operating experience, including historical post-job reviews, into RWP requirements. Day-to-day collective dose data for the selected tasks were compared with established dose estimates and evaluated against procedural criteria (work-in-progress review limits) for additional ALARA review. Where applicable, the inspectors discussed changes to established estimates with ALARA planners and evaluated them against work scope changes or unanticipated elevated dose rates.

Source Term Reduction and Control The inspectors reviewed the collective exposure three-year rolling average from 2009 - 2011 and reviewed historical collective exposure trends. The inspectors evaluated historical dose rate trends and compared them to current H2R22 data. Source term reduction initiatives were reviewed and discussed with

HP staff.

Radiation Worker Performance The inspectors observed radiation worker performance for job evolutions occurring in the drywell inclusive of work on the vessel head and in the torus.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations

The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) or Severity Level IV was identified by the licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which meet the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy for being dispositioned as a Non-Cited Violation.

  • A licensee-identified violation of Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 3.6.4.3, "Standby Gas Treatment System," was discovered by site engineering on December 10, 2012. Technical Specification 3.6.4.3 requires in part that Unit 1 and Unit 2 standby gas treatment subsystems required to support LCO 3.6.4.1, "Secondary Containment," shall be OPERABLE in Mode 1. Contrary to this Technical Specification requirement on November 6, 2012, while Unit 2 was operating in Mode 1, the licensee removed the Unit 2 refueling floor hatch which caused the "2B" standby gas treatment train flow to exceed 4000 cubic feet per minute. Hatch Unit 2 Surveillance Requirement 3.6.4.1.4 lists the operable flow limit for each standby gas treatment subsystem to be less than or equal to 4000 cubic feet per minute. From November 6, 2012 through November 17, 2012, the "2B" standby gas treatment train flow exceeded Surveillance Requirement 3.6.4.1.4 requirements and was therefore inoperable. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as CR 576864. The inspectors screened this violation as Green per IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 3, question C.1, because this violation represented only a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the

standby gas treatment system. (4OA3.1)
