SUBJECT: DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000275/2008002 AND 05000323/2008002 
Dear Mr. Conway:
On March 31, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission completed an inspection at your Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, facility.  The enclosed integrated report documents
the inspection findings that were discussed on April 1, 2008, with Mr. James Becker and members of your staff.
This inspection examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations, and with the conditions of your licenses.  The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
Based on the results of this inspection, three NRC-identified findings of very low safety significance (Green) were identified in this report.  These findings involved violations of NRC
requirements.  However, because of their very low risk significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these three findings as noncited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy.  If you contest any NCV in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

IR 05000275/2008002, 05000323/2008002; 1/1 - 3/31/08; Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1
and 2; Fire Protection, Maintenance Effectiveness, and Occupational Radiation Safety.
This report covered a 13-week period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced inspections in radiation protection.  Three NRC-identified, Green, noncited violations were identified.  The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or
Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609 "Significance Determination Process."  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 and Self-Revealing Findings
  Cornerstone:  Mitigating Systems
* Green.  On February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after Pacific Gas and Electric failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door.  The inspectors identified that the latching mechanism on Fire Door 348 was degraded
and not engaged.  The unlatched fire door resulted in a reduction in fire confinement capability.  The door was required to provide a 11/2-hour fire barrier between two plant fire areas.  The licensee had several prior opportunities to identify the degraded fire door.  Security and operations personnel passed through the affected fire area several times each day. 
This finding is greater than minor because the degraded fire barrier affected the mitigating systems cornerstone external factors attribute objective to prevent undesirable consequences due to fire.  Using Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, "Fire Protection Significance Determination Process," the inspectors determined
this finding is within the fire confinement category and the fire barrier was moderately degraded because the door latch was not functional.  The inspectors concluded that this finding is of very low safety significance because a non-degraded automatic full area water based fire suppression system was in place in the exposing fire area.  This finding was entered into the corrective action
program as Action Request A0719774.  This finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because plant personnel did not maintain a low threshold for identifying issues.  [P.1(a)] (Section 1R05)
* Green.  The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), after Pacific Gas and Electric Company failed to effectively control performance monitoring of the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radiation monitor through appropriate preventive maintenance.  Eight functional failures of the
radiation monitor occurred between November 2006 and January 2008.  The 
  Enclosure - 4 -licensee did not categorize any of these failures as Maintenance Rule functional failures. 
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the mitigating systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and it affects the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of the
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.  The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1, Appendix A.  The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance because this is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss
of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events.  The inspectors also determined that this finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because engineering staff failed to follow the November 2006 revision to the licensee maintenance rule procedure that would have required each failure to be counted as a maintenance rule functional failure.  Engineering staff incorrectly concluded that the revision
was not applicable to the radiation monitors and therefore did not implement the change  [H.4(b)] (Section 1R12).
Cornerstone:  Occupational Radiation Safety
* Green.  The inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1 for failure to follow a licensee procedure.  Specifically, while touring the Unit 2 spent fuel pool on February 13, 2008, the inspectors observed workers performing fuel inspections on the fuel bridge.  The inspectors noted that the physical location of a continuous air monitor, an AMS-4, was in the southeast corner of the floor.  Ventilation flow in this area was north to south with negative ventilation centered on the spent fuel pool.  Section 2.2 of Procedure RCP D-430
states, in part, the purpose of the continuous air monitors was to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions and that locations are selected based on their potential as contributors to airborne activity.  The location of the continuous air monitor was not appropriate to alert the workers of changing radiological conditions.  During review of this occurrence, the inspectors were made aware of
a similar issue.  Specifically, Action Request A0666110 was opened on May 3, 2006, to evaluate the adequacy of AMS-4 placement in the fuel building during fuel moves.  This action request was currently open with a resolution date of December 15, 2008.
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the occupational radiation safety program and process attribute and affected the cornerstone objective, in that the failure to monitor for radioactive material in the air had the potential to increase personnel dose.  This occurrence involves workers unplanned, unintended or potential for such dose; therefore, this finding was evaluated using the occupational radiation safety significance determination process.  The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety
significance because it did not involve: (1) an as low as is reasonably achievable planning or work control issue; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose.  This finding also has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, corrective 
  Enclosure - 5 -action component, because the licensee failed to take timely corrective actions to address safety issues.  P.1(d)] (Section 2OS1)
 
  Enclosure - 6 -REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant Status
  Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) was operating Diablo Canyon Unit 1 and Unit 2 at full power at the beginning of the inspection period.  On January 5, 2008, the licensee reduced
both units to 55 percent power in response to condenser fouling resulting from high sea swells.  On January 6, plant operators returned both units to full power and subsequently reduced Unit 1 to 50 percent power following high circulating water pump bearing temperature.  On January 7, plant operators returned Unit 1 to full power after repairing a failed bearing temperature sensor.  PG&E shut down Unit 2 on February 3 for refueling and steam generator replacement.  Unit 2
remained down for the remainder of the inspection period.
1. REACTOR SAFETY
  Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, and Emergency Preparedness
1R01 Adverse Weather (71111.01)
  .1 Winter Seasonal Readiness Preparations
      a. Inspection Scope
  The inspectors conducted a review of PG&E preparations for seasonal susceptibilities involving high wind and heavy rains on January 3, 2008.  The inspectors completed this review to verify that the plant's design features and procedures were sufficient to protect mitigating systems from the effects of adverse weather.  Documentation for selected risk significant systems was reviewed to ensure that these systems would remain functional
when challenged by inclement weather.  During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant specific design features and the licensee's procedures used to mitigate or respond to adverse weather conditions.  Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and performance requirements for systems selected for inspection and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant
specific procedures.  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.  Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. 
 
  This inspection constitutes one seasonal readiness preparations sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.      b. Findings
  No findings of significance were identified.
 
  Enclosure - 7 -.2 Readiness for Bio-fouling Concerns
      a. Inspection Scope
  During the week of January 1, 2008, the inspectors observed licensee activities associated with expected condenser and ultimate heat sink heat exchanger fouling
resulting from high sea swells.  The inspectors observed pre-job briefings, pre-shift briefings and control room briefings to determine whether the briefings met licensee standards.  The inspectors reviewed Procedure OP O-28, "Intake Management," Revision 10, to verify reactor power reduction prerequisites were met.  Finally, during the remainder of the inspection period, the inspectors periodically reviewed licensee
activities and data collection as specified by licensee procedures to determine whether increasing condenser circulation water pressure was properly monitored.  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. 
This inspection constitutes one readiness for imminent adverse weather condition
sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.
      b. Findings
  No findings of significance were identified.
1R04 Equipment Alignments (71111.04)
  .1 Quarterly Partial System Walkdowns
      a. Inspection Scope
  The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant systems:  * Unit 2, Spent fuel pool cooling system during core offload, February 14, 2008 
* Unit 1, Component cooling water pump and heat Exchanger 1-1, March 21, 2008
The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the
reactor safety cornerstones at the time they were inspected.  The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could impact the function of the system, and, therefore, potentially increase risk.  The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, FSAR, Technical Specification requirements, Administrative Technical Specifications, 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 walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and were 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 
  Enclosure - 8 -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 two partial system walkdown samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05.
      b. Findings
  No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Semi-Annual Complete System Walkdown
      a. Inspection Scope
  On January 22, 2008, the inspectors performed a complete system alignment inspection of the Unit 2 high head injection system to verify the functional capability of the system.  This system was selected because it was considered both safety-significant and risk-
significant in the licensee's probabilistic risk assessment.  The inspectors walked down the system to review mechanical and electrical equipment alignment, electrical power availability, system pressure and temperature indications, as appropriate, component labeling, component lubrication, component and equipment cooling, hangers and supports, operability of support systems, and to ensure that ancillary equipment or
debris did not interfere with equipment operation.  A review of a sample of past and outstanding work orders was performed to determine whether any deficiencies significantly affected the system function.  In addition, the inspectors reviewed the corrective action program database to ensure that system equipment alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved.  The documents used for the
walkdown and issue review are listed in the attachment.
These activities constitute one complete system walkdown sample as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05.      b. Findings
  No findings of significance were identified.
1R05 Fire Protection (71111.05)
 
Quarterly Inspection
  a. Inspection Scope
  The inspectors conducted fire protection walkdowns which were focused on availability, accessibility, and the condition of firefighting equipment in the following risk significant plant areas:
 
* Fire Area 8-A, Unit 1, Computer room, January 15, 2008
* Fire Area 8-D, Unit 2, Computer room, January 15, 2008
* Fire Area 14-D, Unit 1, 140' Turbine deck, January 15, 2008
* Fire Area 19-D, Unit 2, 140' Turbine deck, January 15, 2008 
  Enclosure - 9 -* Fire Area 22-C, Unit 2, Diesel generator corridor, January 29, 2008
* Fire Area 24-D, Unit 2, Excitation switchgear room, January 29, 2008
* Fire Area 3-X, Auxiliary building 100 foot level, February 10, 2008
* Fire Area  3-T-2, Unit 2, Motor-driven auxiliary feed pump, February 10, 2008
* Fire Area 3-BB, Unit 1, Containment penetration room, February 17, 2008
The inspectors reviewed areas to assess if the licensee had implemented a fire protection program that adequately controlled combustibles and ignition sources within the plant, effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability, maintained passive fire protection features in good material condition, and had implemented adequate compensatory measures for out of service, degraded or inoperable fire
protection equipment, systems, or features in accordance with the licensee's fire plan.  The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk as documented in the plant's Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later additional insights, their potential to impact equipment which could initiate or mitigate a plant transient, or their impact on the plant's ability to respond to a security event.  Using
the documents listed in the attachment, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed, that transient material loading was within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to be in satisfactory condition.  The inspectors also verified that minor issues identified
during the inspection were entered into the licensee's corrective action program.  Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. 
These activities constitute nine quarterly fire protection inspection samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.
  b. Findings
  Introduction.  The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after PG&E failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door.
Description.  On February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after PG&E failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door.  The inspectors identified that the latching mechanism on Fire Door 348 was not engaged.  The degraded door latch resulted in a reduction in the confinement capability of the fire barrier.  The door was required to
provide a 11/2-hour fire barrier between Fire Areas 3-BB and 3-AA.  The licensee had several opportunities to identify the degraded fire door.  Security personnel passed into the affected fire area at least three times each day and operations personnel passed through the fire area at least once each shift.  Procedure OM8.ID2, "Fire System Impairment," Revision 13, required plant personnel to notify the operations shift foreman
and ensure an action request is generated after discovering a fire protection system impairment.  The inspectors verified that licensee personnel had neither communicated to the operations shift foreman nor had an action request been generated for the degraded fire door.  The inspectors previously identified that the latches on Fire Doors 258-2, 174-A, and 350-2 were degraded on February 10, 2008.  The failure of
licensee personnel to identify these degraded fire doors was entered into the corrective action program as Action Requests A0718944, A0718946, and A0718947. 
  Enclosure - 10 -  Analysis.  The failure of PG&E to maintain the integrity of Fire Door 348 is a performance deficiency.  This finding is more than minor because the degraded fire barrier affected the mitigating systems cornerstone external factors attribute objective to prevent undesirable consequences due to fire.  The inspectors used the Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, "Fire Protection Significance Determination
Process," to analyze this finding.  The inspectors determined this finding was a fire confinement category and that the fire barrier was moderately degraded because the door latch was not functional.  The inspectors concluded that this finding is of very low safety significance because a non-degraded automatic full area water based fire suppression system was in placed in the exposing fire area.  This finding has a
crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because plant personnel did not maintain a low threshold for identifying issues [P.1(a)]. 
  Enforcement.  Technical Specification 5.4.1.d required that PG&E implement a Fire Protection Program.  The Fire Protection Program requirements, as described by FSAR Appendix 9.5a, Fire Hazards Analysis, required that Fire Door 348 be maintained as a fire area boundary.  Contrary to the above, on February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified that plant personnel failed to maintain Fire Door 348 as a fire boundary.  Because this finding is of very low safety significance and was entered into the corrective action program as Action Request A0719774, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy: 
NCV 05000275/2008002-01, Failure to Identify a Degraded Fire Barrier.
1R08 Inservice Inspection Activities (71111.08)
  02.01 Inspection Activities Other Than Steam Generator Tube Inspection, PWR Vessel Upper Head Penetration Inspections, Boric Acid Corrosion Control
      a.  Inspection Scope
  The inspection procedure requires review of two or three types of nondestructive
examination (NDE) activities and, if performed, one to three welds on the reactor coolant system pressure boundary.  Also review one or two examinations with recordable indications that have been accepted by the licensee for continued service.  In addition the inspectors also reviewed welding and NDE activities associated with the steam generator replacement to fulfill the inspection requirements of Inspection
Procedure 50001, "Steam Generator Replacement Inspection."
The inspectors directly observed the following nondestructive examinations:

During the review and observation of each examination, the inspectors verified that
activities were performed in accordance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code requirements and applicable procedures.  Indications were compared with previous examinations and dispositioned in accordance with ASME Code and approved procedures.  The qualifications of all nondestructive examination technicians performing the inspections were verified to be
current.   
  Enclosure - 12 - No NDE examinations with relevant indications were accepted by the licensee for continued service. 
Three examples of welding on the reactor coolant system pressure boundary and one example of welding on the chemical and volume control system were examined through
direct observation and/or record review as follows:
  System  Component/Weld Identification
Chemical & Volume Control System Charging Pump 2-2, discharge line pipe-to-fitting Weld 7  Reactor Coolant System Pressurizer Safety Valve "B" Nozzle WOL
Reactor Coolant System Pressurizer Spray Line/WIB-345-346 WOL
Reactor Coolant System Pressurizer Surge Line/WIB-438-439 WOL
Welding procedures and nondestructive examination of the welding repair conformed to ASME Code requirements and licensee requirements.

This inspection constitutes two quarterly maintenance effectiveness samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12-05.      b. Findings
 
Introduction.  The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), after PG&E failed to effectively monitor performance of the Unit 2, containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor through appropriate preventive maintenance. 
Description.  Eight functional failures of the Unit 2, containment atmosphere particulate radiation monitor occurred between November 2006 and January 2008.  Each failure required entry into Technical Specification Action 3.4.15, "Reactor Coolant System Leakage Detection Instrumentation."  The licensee did not consider any of the radiation monitor failures as Maintenance Rule functional failures.  Beginning in November 2006, Procedure MA1.ID17, "Maintenance Rule Monitoring Program," required that the licensee declare a maintenance rule functional failure for failed scoped components that
also required an unplanned entry into a Technical Specification action.
Technical Specification bases for 3.4.15 stated that reactor coolant leakage detection systems met Regulatory Guide 1.45, "Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leakage Detection Systems."  Regulatory Guide 1.45 stated that the particulate radiation monitor
provides a separate and diverse method for detection, classification, and location of reactor leakage throughout the plant operating cycle.  The inspectors concluded that the numerous failures of the particulate radiation monitor should have been evaluated against the licensee's performance criteria and resulted in placement of system into Maintenance Rule (a)(1) status. 
Analysis.  The failure of PG&E to effectively control performance monitoring of the Unit 2, containment particulate radioactivity monitor in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) was a performance deficiency.  This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the mitigating
systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.  The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1, Appendix A.  The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety 
  Enclosure - 17 -significance (Green) because this finding is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events.  The inspectors also determined that this finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because engineering staff failed to follow the November 2006 revision to the licensee maintenance rule procedure
that would have required each failure to be counted as a maintenance rule functional failure.  Engineering staff inaccurately concluded that the revision was not applicable to the radiation monitors and therefore did not implement the change [H.4(b)].
Enforcement.  10 CFR 50.65(a)(1), requires, in part, that the holders of an operating license shall monitor the performance or condition of structures, systems, and components within the scope of the rule as defined by 10 CFR 50.65(b), against licensee-established goals, in a manner sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that structures, systems, and components are capable of fulfilling their functions. 
Paragraph (a)(2) of 10 CFR 50.65 states, in part, that monitoring as specified in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) is not required where it has been demonstrated that the
performance or condition of an structures, systems, and components is effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance such that the systems, structures, and components remains capable of performing its intended function.
Contrary to the above, PG&E did not demonstrate that the performance or condition of the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor had been effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance and did not monitor against licensee-established goals.  Specifically, repetitive failures associated with Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor from
November 2006 to January 2008 demonstrated that the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor performance was not being effectively controlled per 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2).  Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into PG&E's corrective action program as Action Request A0717009, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the
NRC Enforcement Policy:  NCV 05000275, 05000323/2008002-02, Failure to Demonstrate a Containment Atmosphere Particulate Radiation Monitor Performance was Effectively Controlled.
1R13  Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control (71111.13)
      a. Inspection Scope
  The inspectors reviewed the licensee's evaluation and management of plant risk for the maintenance and emergent work activities affecting risk-significant and safety-related equipment listed below to verify that the appropriate risk assessments were performed prior to removing equipment for work:
* Technical Specification Sheet T0061921, Unit 1, Residual Heat Removal Pump 1-2 planned maintenance, January 9, 2008
* TSS T0062026, Unit 2, Trip risk during scaffolding construction, January 15, 2008 
  Enclosure - 18 - * TSS T0062095, Unit 1, Surveillance testing of excore instrumentation, January 30, 2008

* TSS T0062492, Unit 1, Removal of Vital Battery Charger 1-1 for planned maintenance, March 24, 2008
These activities were selected based on their potential risk significance relative to the reactor safety cornerstones.  As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified that
risk assessments were performed as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) and were accurate and complete.  When emergent work was performed, the inspectors verified that the plant risk was promptly reassessed and managed.  The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance work, discussed the results of the assessment with the licensee's probabilistic risk analyst or shift technical advisor, and verified plant conditions were
consistent with the risk assessment.  The inspectors also reviewed Technical Specification requirements and walked down portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk analysis assumptions were valid and applicable requirements were met.
 
These activities constituted six samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.13-05.
      b. Findings

* Action Request A0721019, Unit 1, Emergency Diesel Generator 1-01 primary fuel filter leak, February 27, 2008
The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk-significance of the associated components and systems.  The inspectors evaluated the technical
adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that Technical Specification operability was properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no unrecognized increase in risk occurred.  The inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the Technical Specifications and FSAR to the licensee's evaluations, to determine whether the components or systems were
operable.  Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled.  The inspectors determined, where appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations.  Additionally, the inspectors also reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to verify that the licensee was
identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with operability evaluations.  Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. 
This inspection constitutes eight samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-05.      b. Findings

This inspection constitutes 20 samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71121.01.
      b. Findings
  Introduction.  The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1 for failure to follow a licensee procedure.
Description.  While touring the Unit 2 spent fuel pool on February 13, 2008, the inspectors observed workers performing fuel inspections on the fuel bridge.  Radiation
Work Permit 08-2019-00 requires a continuous air monitor be operating in the fuel building, with an appropriate alarm setpoint to alert workers and provides actions for workers to take upon receiving an alarm.  The inspectors noted that the physical location of the continuous air monitor, an AM-4, was in the southeast corner of the floor.  The function of the continuous air monitor is to monitor for airborne radioactive materials while fuel inspection is performed.  Furthermore, Site Procedure RCP D-430, "Plant Airborne Radioactivity Surveillance," Section 2.2.3 states, in part, the purpose of the
continuous air monitors is to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions.  Ventilation flow in this area is from north to south with the exhaust intakes centered with the spent fuel pool.  The continuous air monitor was approximately 18 feet away from the nearest exhaust intake and approximately 50 feet away from the workers' location.  The permanently installed continuous air monitor was out of service; however, it was
physically located beneath an exhaust intake.  Personnel interviews indicated that the AMS-4 was originally placed on top of the permanently installed continuous air monitor, but then it was moved to get a better remote indication.  However, the inspectors concluded, from discussions with radiation protection supervision, that no evaluation was made to determine if the new location was appropriate to alert workers of changing
radiological conditions.
 
  Enclosure - 30 -During review of this occurrence, the inspectors were made aware of a similar situation that was identified on May 3, 2006.  Specifically, Action Request A0666110 was opened to evaluate the adequacy of AMS-4 placement in the fuel building during fuel moves.  The corrective action was initiated in response to an NRC inspector's questions during a walkthrough.  However, this action request remained open with a resolution date of December 15, 2008.
 
Analysis.  This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the occupational radiation safety program and process attribute and affected the cornerstone objective, in that the failure to monitor for radioactive material in the air had the potential to increase personnel dose.  This occurrence involves workers unplanned, unintended or potential
for such dose; therefore, this finding was evaluated using the occupational radiation safety significance determination process.  The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance because it did not involve: (1) an as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) planning or work control issue; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4)  an impaired ability to assess dose.  This finding also has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, corrective action component, because the licensee failed to take timely
corrective actions to address personnel safety issues.  [P.1(d)]
This finding was identified by NRC because the NRC inspectors questioned the position of the AMS-4.
Enforcement.  Technical Specification 5.4.1 requires procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A. Section 7 of Appendix A recommends radiation protection procedures for airborne radioactivity monitoring.  The licensee implementing Procedure RCP D-430, "Plant Airborne Radioactivity Surveillance", Section 2.2 states, in
part, the purpose of the continuous air monitors is to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions and that locations are selected based on their potential as contributors to airborne activity.  Contrary to this requirement, the licensee failed to implement this procedure because the selected location of the continuous air monitor did not provide adequate coverage to alarm and alert the workers of changes in radiological
conditions.  Because this failure to follow a procedure is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program, Action Request A0719338, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy:  NCV 05000323/2008002-03, Failure to Follow Procedures.
 
2OS2 ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02)
      a. Inspection Scope
  The inspectors assessed licensee performance with respect to maintaining individual and collective radiation exposures as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA).  The
inspectors used the requirements in 10 CFR Part 20 and the licensee's procedures required by technical specifications as criteria for determining compliance.  The inspectors also reviewed activities associated with the steam generator replacement to fulfill the inspection requirements of Inspection Procedure 50001, "Steam Generator Replacement Inspection."  The inspectors interviewed licensee personnel and reviewed:
 
 
  Enclosure - 31 -* Five outage or online maintenance work activities scheduled during the inspection period and associated work activity exposure estimates which were likely to result in the highest personnel collective exposures 
* Site specific ALARA procedures 
* Interfaces between operations, radiation protection, maintenance, maintenance planning, scheduling and engineering groups 
* Integration of ALARA requirements into work procedure and radiation work permit (or radiation exposure permit) documents 
* Use of engineering controls to achieve dose reductions and dose reduction benefits afforded by shielding 
* Workers' use of the low dose waiting areas 
* First line job supervisors' contribution to ensuring work activities are conducted in a dose efficient manner 
* Radiation worker and radiation protection technician performance during work activities in radiation areas, airborne radioactivity areas, or high radiation areas 
* Self-assessments, audits, and special reports related to the ALARA program since the last inspection 
* Resolution through the corrective action process of problems identified through post-job reviews and post-outage ALARA report critiques 
* Corrective action documents related to the ALARA program and followup activities, such as initial problem identification, characterization, and tracking 
* Effectiveness of self-assessment activities with respect to identifying and addressing repetitive deficiencies or significant individual deficiencies
Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. 
This inspection constitutes 12 samples of ALARA planning and controls as defined in Inspection Procedure 71121.02.

B. Temporary Instruction 2515-172, "Reactor Coolant System Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds"
 
  Enclosure - 40 -Temporary Instruction TI 2515/172, "Reactor Coolant System Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds" was performed at Diablo Canyon during Refueing Outage 2R14 in February and March 2008.
O3.01  Licensee's Implementation of the MRP-139 Baseline Inspections
    a. MRP-139 baseline inspections:
The inspectors observed performance and reviewed records of structural weld overlays and nondestructive examination activities associated with the Diablo Canyon Unit 2 pressurizer structural weld overlay mitigation effort.  The baseline
inspections of the pressurizer dissimilar metal butt welds (DMBWs) were completed during the spring 2008 refueling outage.
b. At the present time, the licensee is not planning to take any deviations from the baseline inspection requirements of MRP-139, and all other applicable DMBWs are scheduled in accordance with MRP-139 guidelines. 
03.02 Volumetric Examinations
  a. There were no inspections of unmitigated pressurizer DMBWs performed during this outage.  The inspectors reviewed the ultrasonic examination records of the unmitigated hot leg and cold leg DMBWs (Welds WIB-RC-2-1[SE] and
WIB-RC-3-16[SE]), respectively, performed on April 29, 2006.  These examinations were conducted in accordance with the MRP-139 guidelines (i.e., personnel, procedures, and equipment qualified in accordance with ASME Code, Section XI, Supplement VIII [PDI] requirements). 
No relevant conditions or deficiencies were identified during the examinations of the hot and cold leg unmitigated DMBWs, or the mitigated pressurizer DMBWs.
b. Inspectors directly observed and/or reviewed records of NDE performed on pressurizer weld overlays. This effort is documented in Section 1R08 of this
inspection report. 
For each weld overlay inspected the licensee submitted and received NRC approval by letter dated February 6, 2008, for the use of Relief Request REP-1 U2,  "The Application of Weld Overlay on Dissimilar Metal Welds of Pressurizer
Nozzles," Revision 1. 
Inspection coverage met requirements of MRP-139.
No relevant conditions were identified.
c. The certification records of ultrasonic examination personnel used in the examination of the unmitigated hot and cold legs DMBWs, and the mitigated pressurizer DMBWs were reviewed.  All personnel records showed that they were qualified under the EPRI Performance Demonstration Initiative.
d. No deficiencies were identified during the NDE.
 
  Enclosure - 41 -03.03 Weld Overlays
  a. The inspectors observed structural weld overlay welding and reviewed records pertaining to the pressurizer nozzles and determined that welding was performed in accordance with ASME Code Section IX requirements.  Welding inspections are documented in section 1R08 of this inspection report.
b. The licensee submitted and received NRC approval by letter dated February 6, 2008, for the use of Relief Request REP-1 U2,  "The Application of  Weld Overlay on Dissimilar Metal Welds of Pressurizer Nozzles," Revision 1. 
c. The qualification records of welders were reviewed and all qualifications were current.  d. No relevant conditions were identified.
03.04  Mechanical Stress Improvement
  This item is not applicable because the licensee did not employ a mechanical stress improvement process.
03.05 Inservice inspection program
  The licensee MRP-139 inservice inspection program has basically been controlled through the Action Request Program to assure that requirements identified in the MRP-139 guidelines are not inadvertently missed.  As such, the MRP-139 inservice inspection program is in-process, although it was recognized that this may not be the most appropriate way to control DMBW locations and scheduling requirements.  The
licensee initiated Action Request AR A0725407 to update MRP-139 tracking and planning documents, and to create an appropriate scheduling mechanism.  This item will receive further in-office inspection at a later date.
The inspectors' review determined that the hot leg and cold leg DMBWs are
appropriately categorized in accordance with MRP-139 requirements.  Categorization of all other DMBWs will receive further in-office inspection at a later date.
With the exception of the pressurizer nozzle DMBWs, which were categorized as "H," no other DMBWs were categorized as either "H" or "I."  The structural weld overlay
mitigation effort removed the pressurizer nozzles from Category H. 
The licensee's MRP-139 Inservice Inspection Program will receive additional in-office review at a later date.

SUBJECT: DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000275/2008002 AND 05000323/2008002

Dear Mr. Conway:

On March 31, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission completed an inspection at your Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, facility. The enclosed integrated report documents

the inspection findings that were discussed on April 1, 2008, with Mr. James Becker and members of your staff.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations, and with the conditions of your licenses. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, three NRC-identified findings of very low safety significance (Green) were identified in this report. These findings involved violations of NRC

requirements. However, because of their very low risk significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these three findings as noncited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest any NCV in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

Enclosure - 3 - SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

IR 05000275/2008002, 05000323/2008002; 1/1 - 3/31/08; Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1

and 2; Fire Protection, Maintenance Effectiveness, and Occupational Radiation Safety.

This report covered a 13-week period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced inspections in radiation protection. Three NRC-identified, Green, noncited violations were identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or

Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609 "Significance Determination Process." 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 and Self-Revealing Findings

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

  • Green. On February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after Pacific Gas and Electric failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door. The inspectors identified that the latching mechanism on Fire Door 348 was degraded

and not engaged. The unlatched fire door resulted in a reduction in fire confinement capability. The door was required to provide a 11/2-hour fire barrier between two plant fire areas. The licensee had several prior opportunities to identify the degraded fire door. Security and operations personnel passed through the affected fire area several times each day.

This finding is greater than minor because the degraded fire barrier affected the mitigating systems cornerstone external factors attribute objective to prevent undesirable consequences due to fire. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, "Fire Protection Significance Determination Process," the inspectors determined

this finding is within the fire confinement category and the fire barrier was moderately degraded because the door latch was not functional. The inspectors concluded that this finding is of very low safety significance because a non-degraded automatic full area water based fire suppression system was in place in the exposing fire area. This finding was entered into the corrective action

program as Action Request A0719774. This finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because plant personnel did not maintain a low threshold for identifying issues. P.1(a) (Section 1R05)

  • Green. The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), after Pacific Gas and Electric Company failed to effectively control performance monitoring of the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radiation monitor through appropriate preventive maintenance. Eight functional failures of the

radiation monitor occurred between November 2006 and January 2008. The

Enclosure - 4 -licensee did not categorize any of these failures as Maintenance Rule functional failures.

This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the mitigating systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and it affects the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of the

systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1, Appendix A. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance because this is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss

of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. The inspectors also determined that this finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because engineering staff failed to follow the November 2006 revision to the licensee maintenance rule procedure that would have required each failure to be counted as a maintenance rule functional failure. Engineering staff incorrectly concluded that the revision

was not applicable to the radiation monitors and therefore did not implement the change H.4(b) (Section 1R12).

Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety

  • Green. The inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1 for failure to follow a licensee procedure. Specifically, while touring the Unit 2 spent fuel pool on February 13, 2008, the inspectors observed workers performing fuel inspections on the fuel bridge. The inspectors noted that the physical location of a continuous air monitor, an AMS-4, was in the southeast corner of the floor. Ventilation flow in this area was north to south with negative ventilation centered on the spent fuel pool. Section 2.2 of Procedure RCP D-430

states, in part, the purpose of the continuous air monitors was to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions and that locations are selected based on their potential as contributors to airborne activity. The location of the continuous air monitor was not appropriate to alert the workers of changing radiological conditions. During review of this occurrence, the inspectors were made aware of

a similar issue. Specifically, Action Request A0666110 was opened on May 3, 2006, to evaluate the adequacy of AMS-4 placement in the fuel building during fuel moves. This action request was currently open with a resolution date of December 15, 2008.

This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the occupational radiation safety program and process attribute and affected the cornerstone objective, in that the failure to monitor for radioactive material in the air had the potential to increase personnel dose. This occurrence involves workers unplanned, unintended or potential for such dose; therefore, this finding was evaluated using the occupational radiation safety significance determination process. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety

significance because it did not involve: (1) an as low as is reasonably achievable planning or work control issue; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose. This finding also has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, corrective

Enclosure - 5 -action component, because the licensee failed to take timely corrective actions to address safety issues. P.1(d) (Section 2OS1)

Enclosure - 6 -REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status

Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) was operating Diablo Canyon Unit 1 and Unit 2 at full power at the beginning of the inspection period. On January 5, 2008, the licensee reduced

both units to 55 percent power in response to condenser fouling resulting from high sea swells. On January 6, plant operators returned both units to full power and subsequently reduced Unit 1 to 50 percent power following high circulating water pump bearing temperature. On January 7, plant operators returned Unit 1 to full power after repairing a failed bearing temperature sensor. PG&E shut down Unit 2 on February 3 for refueling and steam generator replacement. Unit 2

remained down for the remainder of the inspection period.

1R01 Adverse Weather (71111.01)

.1 Winter Seasonal Readiness Preparations

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted a review of PG&E preparations for seasonal susceptibilities involving high wind and heavy rains on January 3, 2008. The inspectors completed this review to verify that the plant's design features and procedures were sufficient to protect mitigating systems from the effects of adverse weather. Documentation for selected risk significant systems was reviewed to ensure that these systems would remain functional

when challenged by inclement weather. During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant specific design features and the licensee's procedures used to mitigate or respond to adverse weather conditions. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and performance requirements for systems selected for inspection and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant

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

This inspection constitutes one seasonal readiness preparations sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05. b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

Enclosure - 7 -.2 Readiness for Bio-fouling Concerns

a. Inspection Scope

During the week of January 1, 2008, the inspectors observed licensee activities associated with expected condenser and ultimate heat sink heat exchanger fouling

resulting from high sea swells. The inspectors observed pre-job briefings, pre-shift briefings and control room briefings to determine whether the briefings met licensee standards. The inspectors reviewed Procedure OP O-28, "Intake Management," Revision 10, to verify reactor power reduction prerequisites were met. Finally, during the remainder of the inspection period, the inspectors periodically reviewed licensee

activities and data collection as specified by licensee procedures to determine whether increasing condenser circulation water pressure was properly monitored. 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.

This inspection constitutes one readiness for imminent adverse weather condition

sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

1R04 Equipment Alignments (71111.04)

.1 Quarterly Partial System Walkdowns

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant systems: * Unit 2, Spent fuel pool cooling system during core offload, February 14, 2008

  • Unit 1, Component cooling water pump and heat Exchanger 1-1, March 21, 2008

The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the

reactor safety cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could impact the function of the system, and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, FSAR, Technical Specification requirements, Administrative Technical Specifications, 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 walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and were 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

Enclosure - 8 -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 two partial system walkdown samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Semi-Annual Complete System Walkdown

a. Inspection Scope

On January 22, 2008, the inspectors performed a complete system alignment inspection of the Unit 2 high head injection system to verify the functional capability of the system. This system was selected because it was considered both safety-significant and risk-

significant in the licensee's probabilistic risk assessment. The inspectors walked down the system to review mechanical and electrical equipment alignment, electrical power availability, system pressure and temperature indications, as appropriate, component labeling, component lubrication, component and equipment cooling, hangers and supports, operability of support systems, and to ensure that ancillary equipment or

debris did not interfere with equipment operation. A review of a sample of past and outstanding work orders was performed to determine whether any deficiencies significantly affected the system function. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the corrective action program database to ensure that system equipment alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved. The documents used for the

walkdown and issue review are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute one complete system walkdown sample as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05. b. Findings

1R05 Fire Protection (71111.05)

Quarterly Inspection

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted fire protection walkdowns which were focused on availability, accessibility, and the condition of firefighting equipment in the following risk significant plant areas:

  • Fire Area 8-A, Unit 1, Computer room, January 15, 2008
  • Fire Area 8-D, Unit 2, Computer room, January 15, 2008
  • Fire Area 14-D, Unit 1, 140' Turbine deck, January 15, 2008
  • Fire Area 19-D, Unit 2, 140' Turbine deck, January 15, 2008

Enclosure - 9 -* Fire Area 22-C, Unit 2, Diesel generator corridor, January 29, 2008

  • Fire Area 24-D, Unit 2, Excitation switchgear room, January 29, 2008
  • Fire Area 3-X, Auxiliary building 100 foot level, February 10, 2008
  • Fire Area 3-T-2, Unit 2, Motor-driven auxiliary feed pump, February 10, 2008
  • Fire Area 3-BB, Unit 1, Containment penetration room, February 17, 2008

The inspectors reviewed areas to assess if the licensee had implemented a fire protection program that adequately controlled combustibles and ignition sources within the plant, effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability, maintained passive fire protection features in good material condition, and had implemented adequate compensatory measures for out of service, degraded or inoperable fire

protection equipment, systems, or features in accordance with the licensee's fire plan. The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk as documented in the plant's Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later additional insights, their potential to impact equipment which could initiate or mitigate a plant transient, or their impact on the plant's ability to respond to a security event. Using

the documents listed in the attachment, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed, that transient material loading was within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to be in satisfactory condition. The inspectors also verified that minor issues identified

during the inspection were entered into the licensee's corrective action program. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute nine quarterly fire protection inspection samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05.

b. Findings

Introduction. The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after PG&E failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door.

Description. On February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.d, "Fire Protection Program," after PG&E failed to maintain the integrity of an auxiliary building fire door. The inspectors identified that the latching mechanism on Fire Door 348 was not engaged. The degraded door latch resulted in a reduction in the confinement capability of the fire barrier. The door was required to

provide a 11/2-hour fire barrier between Fire Areas 3-BB and 3-AA. The licensee had several opportunities to identify the degraded fire door. Security personnel passed into the affected fire area at least three times each day and operations personnel passed through the fire area at least once each shift. Procedure OM8.ID2, "Fire System Impairment," Revision 13, required plant personnel to notify the operations shift foreman

and ensure an action request is generated after discovering a fire protection system impairment. The inspectors verified that licensee personnel had neither communicated to the operations shift foreman nor had an action request been generated for the degraded fire door. The inspectors previously identified that the latches on Fire Doors 258-2, 174-A, and 350-2 were degraded on February 10, 2008. The failure of

licensee personnel to identify these degraded fire doors was entered into the corrective action program as Action Requests A0718944, A0718946, and A0718947.

Enclosure - 10 - Analysis. The failure of PG&E to maintain the integrity of Fire Door 348 is a performance deficiency. This finding is more than minor because the degraded fire barrier affected the mitigating systems cornerstone external factors attribute objective to prevent undesirable consequences due to fire. The inspectors used the Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, "Fire Protection Significance Determination

Process," to analyze this finding. The inspectors determined this finding was a fire confinement category and that the fire barrier was moderately degraded because the door latch was not functional. The inspectors concluded that this finding is of very low safety significance because a non-degraded automatic full area water based fire suppression system was in placed in the exposing fire area. This finding has a

crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because plant personnel did not maintain a low threshold for identifying issues P.1(a).

Enforcement. Technical Specification 5.4.1.d required that PG&E implement a Fire Protection Program. The Fire Protection Program requirements, as described by FSAR Appendix 9.5a, Fire Hazards Analysis, required that Fire Door 348 be maintained as a fire area boundary. Contrary to the above, on February 17, 2008, the inspectors identified that plant personnel failed to maintain Fire Door 348 as a fire boundary. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and was entered into the corrective action program as Action Request A0719774, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy:

NCV 05000275/2008002-01, Failure to Identify a Degraded Fire Barrier.

1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification (71111.11)

a. Inspection Scope

On January 3, 2008, the inspectors observed a crew of licensed operators in the plant's simulator during licensed operator requalification training to verify that operator performance was adequate, evaluators were identifying and documenting crew

performance problems, and training was being conducted in accordance with licensee procedures. The inspectors evaluated the following areas:

  • licensed operator performance;
  • crew's clarity and formality of communications;
  • ability to take timely actions in the conservative direction;
  • prioritization, interpretation, and verification of annunciator alarms;
  • correct use and implementation of abnormal and emergency procedures;

  • Unit 2, Component cooling water Valve CCW-2-695 local leak rate test failure, February 27, 2008

The inspectors reviewed events where ineffective equipment maintenance has resulted in valid or invalid automatic actuations of engineered safeguards systems and independently verified the licensee's actions to address system performance or condition problems in terms of the following:

  • implementing appropriate work practices;
  • identifying and addressing common cause failures;
  • scoping of systems in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(b) of the maintenance rule;
  • characterizing system reliability issues for performance;
  • charging unavailability for performance;

Enclosure - 16 -* trending key parameters for condition monitoring;

  • verifying appropriate performance criteria for structures, systems, and components functions classified as (a)(2) or appropriate and adequate goals and corrective actions for systems classified as (a)(1). The inspectors assessed performance issues with respect to the reliability, availability, and condition monitoring of the system. In addition, the inspectors verified maintenance effectiveness issues were entered into the corrective action program with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

This inspection constitutes two quarterly maintenance effectiveness samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12-05. b. Findings

Introduction. The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), after PG&E failed to effectively monitor performance of the Unit 2, containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor through appropriate preventive maintenance.

Description. Eight functional failures of the Unit 2, containment atmosphere particulate radiation monitor occurred between November 2006 and January 2008. Each failure required entry into Technical Specification Action 3.4.15, "Reactor Coolant System Leakage Detection Instrumentation." The licensee did not consider any of the radiation monitor failures as Maintenance Rule functional failures. Beginning in November 2006, Procedure MA1.ID17, "Maintenance Rule Monitoring Program," required that the licensee declare a maintenance rule functional failure for failed scoped components that

also required an unplanned entry into a Technical Specification action.

Technical Specification bases for 3.4.15 stated that reactor coolant leakage detection systems met Regulatory Guide 1.45, "Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Leakage Detection Systems." Regulatory Guide 1.45 stated that the particulate radiation monitor

provides a separate and diverse method for detection, classification, and location of reactor leakage throughout the plant operating cycle. The inspectors concluded that the numerous failures of the particulate radiation monitor should have been evaluated against the licensee's performance criteria and resulted in placement of system into Maintenance Rule (a)(1) status.

Analysis. The failure of PG&E to effectively control performance monitoring of the Unit 2, containment particulate radioactivity monitor in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) was a performance deficiency. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the mitigating

systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1, Appendix A. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety

Enclosure - 17 -significance (Green) because this finding is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. The inspectors also determined that this finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because engineering staff failed to follow the November 2006 revision to the licensee maintenance rule procedure

that would have required each failure to be counted as a maintenance rule functional failure. Engineering staff inaccurately concluded that the revision was not applicable to the radiation monitors and therefore did not implement the change H.4(b).

Enforcement. 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1), requires, in part, that the holders of an operating license shall monitor the performance or condition of structures, systems, and components within the scope of the rule as defined by 10 CFR 50.65(b), against licensee-established goals, in a manner sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that structures, systems, and components are capable of fulfilling their functions.

Paragraph (a)(2) of 10 CFR 50.65 states, in part, that monitoring as specified in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) is not required where it has been demonstrated that the

performance or condition of an structures, systems, and components is effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance such that the systems, structures, and components remains capable of performing its intended function.

Contrary to the above, PG&E did not demonstrate that the performance or condition of the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor had been effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance and did not monitor against licensee-established goals. Specifically, repetitive failures associated with Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor from

November 2006 to January 2008 demonstrated that the Unit 2 containment atmosphere particulate radioactivity monitor performance was not being effectively controlled per 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2). Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into PG&E's corrective action program as Action Request A0717009, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the

NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000275,05000323/2008002-02, Failure to Demonstrate a Containment Atmosphere Particulate Radiation Monitor Performance was Effectively Controlled.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control (71111.13)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's evaluation and management of plant risk for the maintenance and emergent work activities affecting risk-significant and safety-related equipment listed below to verify that the appropriate risk assessments were performed prior to removing equipment for work:

  • Technical Specification Sheet T0061921, Unit 1, Residual Heat Removal Pump 1-2 planned maintenance, January 9, 2008
  • TSS T0062026, Unit 2, Trip risk during scaffolding construction, January 15, 2008

Enclosure - 18 - * TSS T0062095, Unit 1, Surveillance testing of excore instrumentation, January 30, 2008

  • TSS T0062365, Unit 1, Failure of generator seal oil pump, February 26, 2008
  • TSS T0062438, Unit 1, Phase duct cooler out of service for corrective maintenance, March 11, 2008
  • TSS T0062492, Unit 1, Removal of Vital Battery Charger 1-1 for planned maintenance, March 24, 2008

These activities were selected based on their potential risk significance relative to the reactor safety cornerstones. As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified that

risk assessments were performed as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) and were accurate and complete. When emergent work was performed, the inspectors verified that the plant risk was promptly reassessed and managed. The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance work, discussed the results of the assessment with the licensee's probabilistic risk analyst or shift technical advisor, and verified plant conditions were

consistent with the risk assessment. The inspectors also reviewed Technical Specification requirements and walked down portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk analysis assumptions were valid and applicable requirements were met.

These activities constituted six samples as defined by Inspection Procedure 71111.13-05.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

1R15 Operability Evaluations (71111.15)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the following issues:

  • Action Request A0687787, Units 1 and 2, Degraded seismic qualification of the fuel handling building, January 8, 2008
  • Action Request A0714564, Unit 2, Degraded auxiliary building supply Fan S-46, January 16, 2008
  • Action Request A0717034, Unit 2, High motor current on containment fan cooling units, January 28, 2008

Enclosure - 19 -* Action Request A0717677, Unit 1, Component cooling water Pump 1-2 motor oil leak, January 30, 2008

  • Action Request A0722963, Units 1 and 2, Emergency diesel generator tachometer failed to reset during power transfer, March 10, 2008

The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk-significance of the associated components and systems. The inspectors evaluated the technical

adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that Technical Specification operability was properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the Technical Specifications and FSAR to the licensee's evaluations, to determine whether the components or systems were

operable. Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled. The inspectors determined, where appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations. Additionally, the inspectors also reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to verify that the licensee was

identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with operability evaluations. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

This inspection constitutes eight samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-05. b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

b. Findings

Introduction. The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1 for failure to follow a licensee procedure.

Description. While touring the Unit 2 spent fuel pool on February 13, 2008, the inspectors observed workers performing fuel inspections on the fuel bridge. Radiation

Work Permit 08-2019-00 requires a continuous air monitor be operating in the fuel building, with an appropriate alarm setpoint to alert workers and provides actions for workers to take upon receiving an alarm. The inspectors noted that the physical location of the continuous air monitor, an AM-4, was in the southeast corner of the floor. The function of the continuous air monitor is to monitor for airborne radioactive materials while fuel inspection is performed. Furthermore, Site Procedure RCP D-430, "Plant Airborne Radioactivity Surveillance," Section 2.2.3 states, in part, the purpose of the

continuous air monitors is to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions. Ventilation flow in this area is from north to south with the exhaust intakes centered with the spent fuel pool. The continuous air monitor was approximately 18 feet away from the nearest exhaust intake and approximately 50 feet away from the workers' location. The permanently installed continuous air monitor was out of service; however, it was

physically located beneath an exhaust intake. Personnel interviews indicated that the AMS-4 was originally placed on top of the permanently installed continuous air monitor, but then it was moved to get a better remote indication. However, the inspectors concluded, from discussions with radiation protection supervision, that no evaluation was made to determine if the new location was appropriate to alert workers of changing

radiological conditions.

Enclosure - 30 -During review of this occurrence, the inspectors were made aware of a similar situation that was identified on May 3, 2006. Specifically, Action Request A0666110 was opened to evaluate the adequacy of AMS-4 placement in the fuel building during fuel moves. The corrective action was initiated in response to an NRC inspector's questions during a walkthrough. However, this action request remained open with a resolution date of December 15, 2008.

Analysis. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the occupational radiation safety program and process attribute and affected the cornerstone objective, in that the failure to monitor for radioactive material in the air had the potential to increase personnel dose. This occurrence involves workers unplanned, unintended or potential

for such dose; therefore, this finding was evaluated using the occupational radiation safety significance determination process. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance because it did not involve: (1) an as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) planning or work control issue; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose. This finding also has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, corrective action component, because the licensee failed to take timely

corrective actions to address personnel safety issues. P.1(d)

This finding was identified by NRC because the NRC inspectors questioned the position of the AMS-4.

Enforcement. Technical Specification 5.4.1 requires procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A. Section 7 of Appendix A recommends radiation protection procedures for airborne radioactivity monitoring. The licensee implementing Procedure RCP D-430, "Plant Airborne Radioactivity Surveillance", Section 2.2 states, in

part, the purpose of the continuous air monitors is to alert personnel to changes in radiological conditions and that locations are selected based on their potential as contributors to airborne activity. Contrary to this requirement, the licensee failed to implement this procedure because the selected location of the continuous air monitor did not provide adequate coverage to alarm and alert the workers of changes in radiological

conditions. Because this failure to follow a procedure is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program, Action Request A0719338, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000323/2008002-03, Failure to Follow Procedures.

2OS2 ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors also reviewed activities associated with the steam generator replacement to fulfill the inspection requirements of Inspection Procedure 50001, "Steam Generator Replacement Inspection." The inspectors interviewed licensee personnel and reviewed:

Enclosure - 31 -* Five outage or online maintenance work activities scheduled during the inspection period and associated work activity exposure estimates which were likely to result in the highest personnel collective exposures

  • Site specific ALARA procedures
  • Interfaces between operations, radiation protection, maintenance, maintenance planning, scheduling and engineering groups

B. Temporary Instruction 2515-172, "Reactor Coolant System Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds"

Enclosure - 40 -Temporary Instruction TI 2515/172, "Reactor Coolant System Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds" was performed at Diablo Canyon during Refueing Outage 2R14 in February and March 2008.

O3.01 Licensee's Implementation of the MRP-139 Baseline Inspections

a. MRP-139 baseline inspections:

The inspectors observed performance and reviewed records of structural weld overlays and nondestructive examination activities associated with the Diablo Canyon Unit 2 pressurizer structural weld overlay mitigation effort. The baseline

inspections of the pressurizer dissimilar metal butt welds (DMBWs) were completed during the spring 2008 refueling outage.

b. At the present time, the licensee is not planning to take any deviations from the baseline inspection requirements of MRP-139, and all other applicable DMBWs are scheduled in accordance with MRP-139 guidelines.

03.02 Volumetric Examinations

a. There were no inspections of unmitigated pressurizer DMBWs performed during this outage. The inspectors reviewed the ultrasonic examination records of the unmitigated hot leg and cold leg DMBWs (Welds WIB-RC-2-1[SE] and

WIB-RC-3-16[SE]), respectively, performed on April 29, 2006. These examinations were conducted in accordance with the MRP-139 guidelines (i.e., personnel, procedures, and equipment qualified in accordance with ASME Code,Section XI, Supplement VIII [PDI] requirements).

No relevant conditions or deficiencies were identified during the examinations of the hot and cold leg unmitigated DMBWs, or the mitigated pressurizer DMBWs.

b. Inspectors directly observed and/or reviewed records of NDE performed on pressurizer weld overlays. This effort is documented in Section 1R08 of this

inspection report.

For each weld overlay inspected the licensee submitted and received NRC approval by letter dated February 6, 2008, for the use of Relief Request REP-1 U2, "The Application of Weld Overlay on Dissimilar Metal Welds of Pressurizer

Nozzles," Revision 1.

Inspection coverage met requirements of MRP-139.

No relevant conditions were identified.

c. The certification records of ultrasonic examination personnel used in the examination of the unmitigated hot and cold legs DMBWs, and the mitigated pressurizer DMBWs were reviewed. All personnel records showed that they were qualified under the EPRI Performance Demonstration Initiative.

d. No deficiencies were identified during the NDE.

Enclosure - 41 -03.03 Weld Overlays

a. The inspectors observed structural weld overlay welding and reviewed records pertaining to the pressurizer nozzles and determined that welding was performed in accordance with ASME Code Section IX requirements. Welding inspections are documented in section 1R08 of this inspection report.

b. The licensee submitted and received NRC approval by letter dated February 6, 2008, for the use of Relief Request REP-1 U2, "The Application of Weld Overlay on Dissimilar Metal Welds of Pressurizer Nozzles," Revision 1.

c. The qualification records of welders were reviewed and all qualifications were current. d. No relevant conditions were identified.

03.04 Mechanical Stress Improvement

This item is not applicable because the licensee did not employ a mechanical stress improvement process.

03.05 Inservice inspection program

The licensee MRP-139 inservice inspection program has basically been controlled through the Action Request Program to assure that requirements identified in the MRP-139 guidelines are not inadvertently missed. As such, the MRP-139 inservice inspection program is in-process, although it was recognized that this may not be the most appropriate way to control DMBW locations and scheduling requirements. The

licensee initiated Action Request AR A0725407 to update MRP-139 tracking and planning documents, and to create an appropriate scheduling mechanism. This item will receive further in-office inspection at a later date.

The inspectors' review determined that the hot leg and cold leg DMBWs are

appropriately categorized in accordance with MRP-139 requirements. Categorization of all other DMBWs will receive further in-office inspection at a later date.

With the exception of the pressurizer nozzle DMBWs, which were categorized as "H," no other DMBWs were categorized as either "H" or "I." The structural weld overlay

mitigation effort removed the pressurizer nozzles from Category H.

The licensee's MRP-139 Inservice Inspection Program will receive additional in-office review at a later date.
