Plant Edwin I. Hatch, Units 1 and 2, Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

The report covered a three-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and regional reactor inspectors. There is one self-revealing violation 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 April 29, 2015. The cross-cutting aspects are determined using IMC 0310, "Aspects within the Cross-Cutting Areas," dated December 4, 2014. All violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy dated November 1, 2016. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operations of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 6. Documents reviewed by the inspectors which are not identified in the Report Details are identified in the List of Documents Reviewed section of the

Attachment.

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

A self-revealing non-cited violation (NCV) of Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4.1 was identified when technicians performing maintenance on the 2C emergency diesel generator observed pitting on the lower crank component gears and did not initiate a condition report as required by procedure 52SV-R43-001-0, "Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection." The licensee's failure to initiate a condition report, as required by 52SV-R43-001-0 'Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection', for the pitting observed on the lower crank component gears was a performance deficiency. The violation of regulatory requirement occurred on or about November 2015 until the licensee replaced the 2C EDG cross drive assembly and restored compliance on August 25, 2016. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as CR 10263236.

The performance deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, the failure to evaluate gear pitting would allow progression of a degradation mechanism to the point of EDG inoperability. The inspectors screened this finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, "The Significant Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power," dated June 19, 2012.

Because all four questions in Section A of Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," were answered "no," the finding screened as

Green.

The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the 'Resources' aspect of the human performance area, because the licensee did not ensure adequate procedural guidance to recognize the difference between normal and destructive pitting. [H.1] (Section 4OA3)

Violations of very low safety significance that were identified by the licensee have been reviewed by the NRC. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program. These violations and corrective action tracking numbers are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status

Unit 1 began the inspection period at 100 percent rated thermal power (RTP). On January 21, 2017 power was reduced to 60 percent RTP due high vibrations on the "B" reactor feed pump. On January 24 operators shutdown the unit to replace the "L" safety relief valve pilot. The unit returned to 100 percent RTP on January 29. On February 28, Unit 1 reduced power to 97 percent RTP to reduce leakage by the "L" safety relief valve pilot and operated at or near 97 percent RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at 98 percent RTP in the end of cycle coast down period. On February 6, 2017, operators shut down the unit for a scheduled refueling outage. The unit was restarted on February 25, 2017, and returned to 100 percent RTP on March 1, 2017. The unit operated at or near 100 percent RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.

Hazard Assessment and Instructions to Workers: During facility tours, the inspectors directly observed radiological postings and container labeling for areas established within the radiologically controlled area (RCA) of the Unit 2 (U2) Reactor Building, U2 Turbine Building and radioactive waste (radwaste) processing and storage locations.

The inspectors independently measured radiation dose rates or directly observed conduct of licensee radiation surveys for selected RCA areas. The inspectors reviewed survey records for several plant areas including surveys for airborne radioactivity, gamma surveys with a range of dose rate gradients, surveys for alpha-emitters and other hard-to-detect radionuclides, and pre-job surveys for upcoming tasks. The inspectors also discussed changes to plant operations that could contribute to changing radiological conditions since the last inspection. The inspectors attended pre-job briefings and reviewed Radiation Work Permit (RWP) details to assess communication of radiological control requirements and current radiological conditions to workers.

Control of Radioactive Material: The inspectors observed surveys of material and personnel being released from the RCA using small article monitor, personnel contamination monitor, and portal monitor instruments. The inspectors discussed equipment sensitivity, alarm setpoints, and release program guidance with licensee staff.

The inspectors also reviewed records of leak tests on selected sealed sources and discussed nationally tracked source transactions with licensee staff.

Hazard Control: The inspectors evaluated access controls and barrier effectiveness for selected High Radiation Area (HRA), Locked High Radiation Area (LHRA), and Very High Radiation Area (VHRA) locations and discussed changes to procedural guidance for LHRA and VHRA controls with Radiation Protection (RP) supervisors. The inspectors reviewed implementation of controls for the storage of irradiated material within the spent fuel pool. Established radiological controls, including airborne controls and electronic dosimeter (ED) alarm setpoints, were evaluated for selected U2 Refueling Outage 24 (2R24) tasks. In addition, the inspectors reviewed licensee controls for areas where dose rates could change significantly as a result of plant shutdown and refueling operations. The inspectors also reviewed the use of personnel dosimetry including extremity dosimetry and multibadging in high dose rate gradients.

Radiation Worker Performance and RP Technician Proficiency: Occupational workers' adherence to selected RWPs and RP technician proficiency in providing job coverage were evaluated through direct observations and interviews with licensee staff. Jobs observed included torus diving, valve 2E11FO50 repair work, U2 RWCU HX work, and various outage maintenance tasks in high radiation and contaminated areas. The inspectors also evaluated worker responses to dose and dose rate alarms during selected work activities.

Problem Identification and Resolution: The inspectors reviewed and assessed condition reports associated with radiological hazard assessment and control. The inspectors evaluated the licensee's ability to identify and resolve the issues in accordance with licensee procedures. The inspectors also reviewed recent self-assessment results.

Inspection Criteria: Radiation protection activities were evaluated against the requirements of Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) U2 Chapters 11 and 12, Technical Specifications (TS) Section 5.7, 10 CFR Parts 19 and 20, and approved licensee procedures. Licensee programs for monitoring materials and personnel released from the RCA were evaluated against 10 CFR Part 20 and IE Circular 81-07, "Control of Radioactively Contaminated Material". Documents and records reviewed are listed in the Attachment.

The enforcement aspects of this finding are discussed in Section 4OA7.

2RS2 Occupational As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) Planning and Controls (Five Inspection Samples Completed)

a. Inspection Scope

Work Planning and Exposure Tracking: The inspectors reviewed work activities and their collective exposure estimates for 2R24

. The inspectors reviewed ALARA planning packages for activities related to the following high collective exposure tasks: Rx Vessel Disassembly/Reassembly, Drywell (DW) ISI/FAC, CRD Replacement, MSIV work, and DW scaffold work. 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 2012 - 2015. The inspectors evaluated historical dose rate trends for reactor coolant system piping and compared them to current levels during 2R24. Source term reduction initiatives, including cobalt reduction and zinc injection, were reviewed and discussed with RP staff. The inspectors also reviewed temporary shielding packages for the 2R24 outage

.

Radiation Worker Performance: As part of Inspection Procedure (IP) 71124.01, the inspectors observed pre-job ALARA briefings and radiation worker performance for various HRA jobs in the auxiliary building and containment.

Main article: IP 71153

.1 (CLOSED) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000366/2016-003-00 2C Emergency Diesel

Generator Inoperable Due to Low Lube Oil Pressure

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed this LER for potential performance deficiencies and/or violations of regulatory requirements. Additionally, discussions were held with Operations, Engineering and Licensing staff members to understand the details surrounding this issue. This condition was documented in the licensee's corrective action program as CR 10263236. LER 05000366/2016-003 is closed.

b. Findings

Introduction:

A self-revealing Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4, "Procedures," was identified on August 18, 2016, when the '2C' emergency diesel generator tripped on low lube oil discharge pressure due to a sheared shaft on the cross drive assembly. The licensee's failure to initiate a condition report, as required by 52SV-R43-001-0 'Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection', for the pitting observed on the lower crank component gears was a performance deficiency.

Description:

The cross-drive assembly of the emergency diesel generator is a gear reduction assembly which uses the rotation of the lower crankshaft to power gear-driven auxiliary equipment including the engine driven lube oil pump. The engine driven lube oil pump supplies lubricating oil to the engine during normal operation. On August 18, 2016, the 2C EDG tripped on low lubricating oil pressure 30 minutes into the monthly surveillance run. Engine disassembly revealed that the cross drive shaft that drives the engine driven lube oil pump, was sheared and the supporting cylindrical radial bearing was severely worn. Pitting damage and plastic deformation was found on the cross drive assembly gears and mating gears. Inspectors reviewed maintenance practices related to the cross drive assembly. The cross-drive input gear was visually inspected every two years to assess the health of the gears and identify misalignment, lubrication or backlash issues prior to failure. This visual inspection was a recommended corrective action from Part 21 report 1995-08-9 (Accession No.

9502240086). The recommendation prescribes that "someone expert enough to distinguish between initial pitting which is acceptable and destructive pitting which is not acceptable" was required. Licensee procedure 52SV-R43-001-0 'Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection' stated, "Visually inspect the following LOWER CRANK components Gears for gear wear pattern, pitting, scrubbing, fretting, AND discoloration, chipped OR broken teeth. IF abnormalities are found, initiate a CR." Licensee EDG mechanics who performed the November 2015 visual inspections observed pitting on lower crank component gears, but did not initiate a condition report or take backlash measurements because they had considered the observed pitting to be normal. The licensee mechanics were not trained to distinguish between initial, normal and destructive pitting. Following failure of the 2C EDG, the licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program as CR 10262921 and CR 10263236. Engineering evaluations concluded that had backlash measurements been taken following the November 2015 visual inspection, the measurements would not have been out of tolerance because the cause of the misalignment (and impact on gear backlash) was not similar to the out-of-square bracket condition evaluated in Part 21 Report 1995-08-9.

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's engineering evaluation and concluded that the licensee's failure to initiate a CR following the November 2015 visual inspection did not result in a missed opportunity to identify the impending failure of the cross drive shaft prior to the 2C EDG failure in August 2016. The licensee replaced the 2C EDG cross-drive assembly and associated gearing, and performed extent of condition inspections on all other EDGs. The 2C EDG was returned to an operable condition on August 25, 2016.

Analysis:

The licensee's failure to initiate a condition report, as required by 52SV-R43-001-0 "Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection," for the pitting observed on the lower crank component gears, was a performance deficiency. The failure to initiate a condition report precluded further licensee actions to evaluate and monitor evidence of equipment degradation (i.e., gear pitting). Specifically, the licensee did not implement and track gear lash measurements to identify the potential cause of the pitting and distinguish between initial and destructive pitting. The performance deficiency was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and was more than minor because if left uncorrected, the failure to evaluate gear pitting would allow progression of a degradation mechanism to the point of EDG inoperability. The inspectors screened this finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, "The Significant Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power," dated June 19, 2012. Because all four questions in Section A of Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," were answered "no," the finding screened as Green. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the 'Resources' aspect of the human performance area, because the licensee did not ensure adequate procedural guidance to recognize the difference between normal and destructive pitting. [H.1]

Enforcement:

Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification 5.4.1 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, in part, that maintenance of safety-related equipment is performed in accordance with written procedures appropriate to the circumstances. Procedure 52SV-R43-001-0 'Diesel, Alternator, and Accessories Inspection' required, in part, "Visually inspect the following LOWER CRANK components Gears for gear wear pattern, pitting, scrubbing, fretting, AND discoloration, chipped OR broken teeth. IF abnormalities are found, initiate a CR."

Contrary to the above, in November 2015, the licensee observed pitting on the lower crank component gears and did not initiate a condition report. The violation of regulatory requirement occurred on or about November 2015. The licensee replaced the 2C EDG cross drive assembly and restored compliance on August 25, 2016. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as CR 10263236. (NCV 5000366/2017001-01; "Failure to identify abnormal condition on 2C EDG cross

drive assembly")

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed this LER for potential performance deficiencies and/or violations of regulatory requirements. Additionally, discussions were held with Operations, Engineering and Licensing staff members to understand the details surrounding this issue. This condition was documented in the licensee's corrective action program as CR 10295889. LER 05000366/2016-004 is closed.

b. Findings

The enforcement aspects of this finding are discussed in Section 4OA7.

4OA5 Other Activities

.1 (Closed) Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/192, Inspection of the Licensee's Interim Compensatory Measures Associated with the Open Phase Condition Design Vulnerabilities in Electric Power Systems

a. Inspection Scope

The objective of this performance based Temporary Instruction is to verify implementation of interim compensatory measures associated with an open phase condition design vulnerability in electric power system for operating reactors. The inspectors conducted an inspection to determine if the licensee had implemented the following interim compensatory measures. These compensatory measures are to remain in place until permanent automatic detection and protection schemes are installed and declared operable for open phase condition design vulnerability. The inspectors verified the licensee:

identified and discussed with plant staff the lessons-learned from the open phase condition events at US operating plants including the Byron Station open phase condition and its consequences. This included conducting operator training for promptly diagnosing, recognizing consequences, and responding to an open phase condition.

updated plant operating procedures to help operators promptly diagnose and respond to open phase conditions on off-site power sources credited for safe shutdown of the plant.

established and implemented periodic walkdown activities to inspect switchyard equipment such as insulators, disconnect switches, and transmission line and transformer connections associated with the offsite power circuits to detect a visible open phase condition.

ensured that routine maintenance and testing activities on switchyard components have been implemented and maintained. As part of the maintenance and testing activities, the licensee assessed and managed plant risk in accordance with 10 CFR

50.65(a)

(4) requirements.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 (CLOSED) Notice of Violation EA-16-136, Failure to Provide Complete and Accurate

Information for Weld Overlay 1B31-1RC-12BR-E-5

a. Inspection Scope

In accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 92702, "Follow-Up on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternate Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders," the inspectors performed a follow-up inspection for SL III Traditional Enforcement Notice of Violation (NOV) EA-16-136. The NOV was issued on October 19, 2016, as NRC Inspection Report 05000321/2016011 (ADAMS Accession Number ML16293A900). The report provided the details surrounding the licensee's failure to provide information that was complete and accurate in all respects, which was determined to be a violation of 10 CFR 50.9, "Completeness and Accuracy of Information."

The inspectors' follow-up actions evaluated the licensee's corrective actions that had occurred since the NOV was issued. Specifically, the licensee revised its procedure governing regulatory correspondence to provide more rigor to the review of documents which would be submitted to NRC.

b. Findings

As part of the inspection effort addressed in 05000321/2016011, the NRC concluded that the corrective actions that the licensee had taken and the results achieved were adequately addressed in Inspection Report 05000321/2016010 (ADAMS accession number ML16224A795), and therefore no licensee response to the NOV was required.

During this inspection period, the inspectors determined that the licensee's corrective actions were sufficient to address the identified cause. Therefore, NOV EA-16-136 is closed.

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit

On April 26, 2017, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. David Vineyard and other members of the licensee's staff. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection period.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations

The following violations of very low safety significance (Green) were identified by the licensee and were violations of NRC requirements which met the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy, for being dispositioned as Non-Cited Violations.

Unit 2 Technical Specification 3.6.1.3 requires each PCIV be operable in Mode 1. With one PCIV inoperable, the affected penetration flow path must be isolated by use of at least one closed and de-activated automatic valve, closed manual valve, blind flange, or check valve with flow through the valve secured. Contrary to the above, on November 6, 2016 at 21:51 operators tagged valve 2E41F111, a PCIV, open with the breaker off. Subsequently, a licensed operator performing a main control room board walk down noted the PCIV was inoperable and, on November 8 at 0151, operators closed and de-activated an automatic valve in the line to restore compliance. Inspectors screened the finding in accordance with IMC 609 Appendix A "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at-Power." The finding screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the questions in Appendix A Exhibit 3 for reactor containment were answered "no". This issue was documented in the licensee's corrective action program as CR 10295889. (Section 4OA3.2)

Technical Specification 5.7.1 requires, in part, entrances into areas in which the intensity of radiation is > 100 mrem/hr but < 1000 mrem/hr, measured at 30 cm from the radiation source or from any surface the radiation penetrates, to be controlled by requiring issuance of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP). Contrary to this, On September 9, 2016, two individuals entered a High Radiation Area in the Unit 2 SE Diagonal 87' elevation to calibrate an RHR Service water transmitter without the proper briefing or RWP. The individuals were briefed and permitted to enter the HPCI Room area instead of this area. This finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because there was no substantial potential for overexposure and the licensee's ability to assess dose was not compromised. The immediate corrective actions were documented in CR 10271667. The long term corrective actions include continuing training such that all craft personnel are exposed to the remediation scenario.
