Dear Mr. Shea: | |||
On June 30, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at | |||
your Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 1, 2, and 3. The enclosed inspection report documents | |||
the inspection results which were discussed on July 10, August 10 and 14th, 2012, with Mr. | |||
Keith Polson and other members of your staff. | |||
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and | |||
compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations, orders, and with the conditions of your | |||
license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and | |||
interviewed personnel. | |||
One NRC identified and 3 self revealing findings of very low safety significance (Green) were | |||
identified during this inspection. Three of these findings were determined to involve violations of | |||
NRC requirements. Further, a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very | |||
low safety significance is listed in this report. The NRC is treating the violations as non-cited | |||
violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. If you contest these | |||
non-cited violations, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection | |||
report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document | |||
Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001, with copies to: (1) the Regional Administrator, | |||
Region II; (2) the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory | |||
Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and (3) the NRC Resident Inspector at the Browns | |||
Ferry Nuclear Plant. | |||
In addition, if you disagree with any cross-cutting aspect assignment in the report, you should | |||
provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your | |||
disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and the NRC Resident Inspector at the | |||
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant. | |||

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS | |||
IR 05000259/2012003, 05000260/2012003, 05000296/2012003, 05000259/2012502, 05000260/2012502, 05000296/2012502; 04/01/2012 -06/30/2012; Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 1, 2 and 3; Operability Evaluations, Radioactive Solid Waste Processing and Radioactive Material Handling, Storage, and Transportation, and Event Follow-Up. The report covered a three month period of inspection by resident and regional inspectors. Four findings were identified. The significance of most findings is identified by their color (Green, | IR 05000259/2012003, 05000260/2012003, 05000296/2012003, 05000259/2012502, | ||
05000260/2012502, 05000296/2012502; 04/01/2012 -06/30/2012; Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant, | |||
Units 1, 2 and 3; Operability Evaluations, Radioactive Solid Waste Processing and Radioactive | |||
Material Handling, Storage, and Transportation, and Event Follow-Up. | |||
The report covered a three month period of inspection by resident and regional inspectors. Four | |||
findings were identified. The significance of most findings is identified by their color (Green, | |||
White, Yellow, and Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Significance | |||
Determination Process (SDP); and, the cross-cutting aspects were determined using IMC | |||
0310, Components Within the Cross-Cutting Areas. Findings for which the SDP does not | |||
apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRCs | |||
program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in | |||
NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process Revision 4, dated December 2006. | |||
NRC Identified and Self-Revealing Findings | |||
Cornerstone: Initiating Events | |||
* Green. A self-revealing finding (FIN) was identified for the licensees failure to | |||
perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room (MCR) | |||
annunciator power supplies. As a result, a power supply failed which led to a fire in | |||
annunciator panel 3-X-55-5A in the Unit 3 control room. The licensee initiated | |||
actions to extinguish the fire, replace the two affected power supplies and develop a | |||
preventive maintenance program to replace the power supplies every ten years. | |||
Additional corrective actions to replace all power supplies that have been installed for | |||
more than four years are pending. This was captured in the licensees corrective | |||
action program as problem event report (PER) 496592. | |||
The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was | |||
considered sufficiently similar to example 4.f of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) | |||
0612, Appendix E, for an issue that resulted in a fire hazard in a safety-related area | |||
of the plant. The finding was associated with the Initiating Events Cornerstone and | |||
required a phase 3 analysis in accordance with IMC 0609 because the finding | |||
increased the likelihood of, and actually caused, a fire in the Unit 3 control room. | |||
The phase 3 analysis determined that without an impact to additional plant | |||
equipment, or a major impact on human action failure rates, the finding was | |||
determined to be Green. The cause of this finding was related to the cross cutting | |||
aspect of Problem Identification in the Corrective Action Program component of the | |||
Problem Identification and Resolution area because the licensee should have | |||
recognized the electrolytic capacitors were installed beyond their recommended | |||
service life and scheduled replacement prior to their failure [P.1(a)]. (Section | |||
4OA3.6) | |||
Enclosure | |||
3 | |||
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems | |||
* Green. An NRC-identified non-cited violation (NCV) of the Technical Specifications | |||
5.4.1.a was identified for the licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment | |||
Cooling Water (EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures | |||
which resulted in the inoperability of two other safety related pumps. The licensee | |||
immediately restored the flood protection configuration of the C Residual Heat | |||
Removal Service Water (RHRSW) pump room by properly re-installing the flood | |||
protection cover and permanently stenciled the aluminum plate with the required | |||
procedure for installation. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action | |||
program as PER 532050. | |||
The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating | |||
Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Events, and adversely | |||
affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability | |||
of RHRSW pumps to perform their intended safety function during a design basis | |||
flooding event. Specifically, the improper re-installation of an external flood | |||
protection cover resulted in the inoperability of two Residual Heat Removal Service | |||
Water (RHRSW) pumps. The significance of this finding was evaluated in | |||
accordance with the IMC 0609 Attachment 4, Phase 1- Initial Screening and | |||
Characterization of Findings, which required a Phase 3 analysis because the finding | |||
involved the degradation of equipment designed to mitigate a flooding event and it | |||
was risk significant due to external initiating event core damage sequences. The | |||
finding was determined to be Green because of the short exposure time, and the low | |||
likelihood of the flood. The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross | |||
cutting aspect of Supervisory Oversight in the Work Practices component of the | |||
Human Performance area, because of the foremans assumption that workers knew | |||
to restore the flood protection cover to meet procedural requirements without a | |||
formal pre-job brief [H.4(c)]. (Section 1R15) | |||
Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety | |||
* Green. A self-revealing non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of | |||
Licensed Material, was identified by inspectors for the licensees failure to comply | |||
with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations during shipment of radioactive | |||
materials. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure proper packaging of two DOT 7A | |||
Type A packages as required by Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations in | |||
49 CFR 173.475, Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 | |||
(Radioactive) Materials. This issue has been entered into the licensees corrective | |||
action program as SR 570902. | |||
The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation | |||
Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute, | |||
involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective, | |||
to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to | |||
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian | |||
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to correctly secure the package | |||
Enclosure | |||
4 | |||
contents to prevent movement could have resulted in damage or failure of the | |||
container during transportation. The finding was determined to be of very low safety | |||
significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being exceeded, a | |||
package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground non- | |||
conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications. The cause of this finding | |||
was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents, Procedures and | |||
Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human Performance area | |||
because the licensee did not effectively incorporate package design specifications | |||
into their transportation program to ensure that all internal restraining devices are | |||
correctly installed to secure the CRDM in place to prevent damage to the transport | |||
package. (H.2(c)) (Section 2RS8) | |||
* Green. A self-revealing non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of | |||
Licensed Material, was identified by inspectors for the licensees failure to comply | |||
with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations during shipment of radioactive | |||
materials. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure proper closure of a DOT 7A Type | |||
A package as required by Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations in 49 | |||
CFR 173.475, Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 | |||
(Radioactive) Materials. This issue has been entered into the licensees corrective | |||
action program as SR 571151. | |||
The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation | |||
Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute, | |||
involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective, | |||
to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to | |||
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian | |||
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to apply the correct torque to the | |||
package closure bolts could have resulted in incomplete sealing of the container or | |||
failure of the cover bolts during transportation. The finding was determined to be of | |||
very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being | |||
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial | |||
ground non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications. The cause | |||
of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents, | |||
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human | |||
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate the vendor | |||
provided container loading and shipping instructions into their work package and | |||
transportation program to ensure correct torque values were used to close the | |||
shipping container. (H.2(c)) (Section 2RS8). | |||

REPORT DETAILS | |||
Summary of Plant Status | |||
Unit 1 operated at full power for most of the report period except for an unplanned downpower | |||
: | on June 29, 2012, to 75 percent power to reduce load on the B Phase Main Bank Transformer | ||
due to a lifting oil pressure relief. The unit returned to full power on June 30, 2012. | |||
Unit 2 operated at full power for most of the report period except for one planned and one | |||
unplanned downpower. On April 20, 2012, the unit performed a planned downpower to 66 | |||
percent power for rod pattern adjustment, scram time testing and turbine valve testing. The unit | |||
returned to full power on April 22nd. On May 15, 2012, the unit performed an unplanned | |||
downpower to 92 percent power to insert control rod 30-51 for scram outlet valve repair and | |||
returned to full power the same day. | |||
Unit 3 operated at full power for most of the report period except for one planned downpower, | |||
one manual and two automatic scrams, and one unplanned downpower. On April 6, 2012, the | |||
unit was shutdown for a scheduled refueling outage that lasted 49 days. The unit was restarted | |||
on May 19th. On May 22nd, an automatic scram occurred from 19.5 percent power with the | |||
main turbine generator offline due to a 3A Unit Station Service Transformer differential relay trip | |||
caused by incorrect relay setting. On May 24, 2012, during reactor startup and heatup an | |||
unplanned manual scram occurred as a result of a partial control rod insertion caused by a | |||
combination of a signal spike and an inappropriate operator downrange on separate | |||
intermediate power range monitors. The unit restarted the same day. On May 29, 2012, a main | |||
generator current transformer manufactured and installed with reverse polarity caused an | |||
automatic scram from 75 percent power. The unit restarted on June 2nd and returned to full | |||
power on June 5th. On June 6th, the unit performed an unplanned downpower from 96 percent | |||
power to 75 percent power to remove the 3B condensate booster pump with high moisture in its | |||
oil system from service. The unit returned to full power on June 8, 2012. | |||

1R01 Adverse Weather Protection | |||
.1 Offsite and Alternate Alternating Current (AC) Power Systems Readiness | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
Prior to the summer season, inspectors reviewed electrical power design features, onsite | |||
risk and work management procedures, and corporate transmission and power supply | |||
procedures to verify appropriate operational oversight and assurance of continued | |||
availability of offsite and alternate AC power systems. Inspectors verified that | |||
communications protocols existed between the transmission system operator and | |||
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant for coordination of off-normal and emergency events | |||
affecting the plant, event details, estimates of return-to-service times, and notifications of | |||
grid status changes. Inspectors also verified that procedures included controls to | |||
Enclosure | |||

adequately monitor both offsite AC power systems (including post-trip voltages) and | |||
onsite alternate AC power systems for availability and reliability. Furthermore, | |||
inspectors interviewed onsite licensed operators and offsite transmission personnel to | |||
determine their understanding and implementation of the power monitoring and | |||
assessment process. Inspectors reviewed the material condition of offsite AC power | |||
systems and onsite alternate AC power systems to the plant, including switchyard and | |||
transformers. This review included review of outstanding work orders affecting these | |||
systems and a walkdown of the switchyard with operations personnel to ensure the | |||
systems will continue to provide appropriate as designed capabilities. This activity | |||
constituted one Offsite and AC Readiness sample. | |||

In addition, the inspectors reviewed the licensees implementation of the GL 89-13 | |||
program. Inspectors reviewed associated PERs and corrective actions to verify that the | |||
licensee was identifying issues and correcting them. The inspectors performed | |||
walkdowns of key components of the Unit 3 RHR system to verify material conditions | |||
were acceptable and physical arrangement matched procedures and drawings. This | |||
activity constituted one Annual Heat Sink sample. | |||

No findings were identified. | |||
1R08 Inservice Inspection (ISI) Activities (71111.08G, Unit 3) | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) Activities and Welding Activities: From April 16 to | |||
April 20, 2012, the inspectors conducted an on-site review of the implementation of the | |||
licensees Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program for monitoring degradation of the reactor | |||
coolant system, emergency feedwater systems, risk-significant piping and components, | |||
and containment systems in Unit 3. The inspectors activities included a review of non- | |||
destructive examinations (NDEs) to evaluate compliance with the applicable edition of | |||
the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel | |||
Code (BPVC), Section XI (Code of record: 2001 Edition with 2003 Addenda), and to | |||
verify that indications and defects (if present) were appropriately evaluated and | |||
dispositioned in accordance with the requirements of the ASME Code, Section XI, | |||
acceptance standards. | |||
The inspectors directly observed the following NDE mandated by the ASME Code to | |||
evaluate compliance with the ASME Code Section XI and Section V requirements and, if | |||
any indications and defects were detected, to evaluate if they were dispositioned in | |||
accordance with the ASME Code or an NRC-approved alternative requirement. | |||

* EVT of BFN-3-RPV-068-RA050 U3 Feedwater Sparger End Brackets | |||
The inspectors reviewed associated documents for the welding activities referenced | |||
below in order to evaluate compliance with procedures and the ASME Code. The | |||
inspectors reviewed the work order, repair and replacement plan, weld data sheets, | |||
welding procedures, procedure qualification records, welder performance qualification | |||
records, and NDE reports. | |||
* Work Order 04-719493-003, 3-FCV-073-016 HPCI Turbine Steam Supply Valve | |||
* Work Order 08-718716-004, Replace Strain Gauges on MS Lines | |||
During non-destructive surface and volumetric examinations performed since the | |||
previous refuelling outage, the licensee did not identify any relevant indications that were | |||
analytically evaluated and accepted for continued service. Therefore, no NRC review | |||
was completed for this inspection procedure attribute. | |||
Identification and Resolution of Problems: The inspectors performed a review of a | |||
sample of ISI-related problems which were identified by the licensee and entered into | |||
the corrective action program as Problem Evaluation Reports (PERs). The inspectors | |||
reviewed the PERs to confirm the licensee had appropriately described the scope of the | |||
problem, and had initiated corrective actions. The review also included the licensees | |||
consideration and assessment of operating experience events applicable to the plant. | |||
The inspectors performed this review to ensure compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, | |||
Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requirements. The corrective action | |||
documents reviewed by the inspectors are listed in the report attachment. | |||

1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification | |||
.1 Resident Inspector Quarterly Review | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On June 11, 2012, the inspectors observed an as-found licensed operator requalification | |||
simulator examination according to Unit 2 Simulator Exercise Guide OPL173.S039. The | |||
scenario involved Partial Loss of Reactor Building Closed Cooling Water, Loss of I & C | |||
Bus B, Anticipated Transient without Scram (ATWS), Lower Water Level (C-5) for Power | |||
Control with Bypass Valves. | |||
The inspectors specifically evaluated the following attributes related to the operating | |||
crews performance: | |||
* Clarity and formality of communication | |||
* Ability to take timely action to safely control the unit | |||
* Prioritization, interpretation, and verification of alarms | |||
* Correct use and implementation of Abnormal Operating Instructions (AOIs), and | |||
Emergency Operating Instructions (EOIs) | |||
* Timely and appropriate Emergency Action Level declarations per Emergency Plan | |||
Implementing Procedures (EPIP) | |||
* Control board operation and manipulation, including high-risk operator actions | |||
* Command and Control provided by the Unit Supervisor and Shift Manager | |||
The inspectors attended the post-examination critique to assess the effectiveness of the | |||
licensee evaluators and to verify that licensee-identified issues were comparable to | |||
issues identified by the inspector. The inspectors reviewed simulator physical fidelity | |||
(i.e., the degree of similarity between the simulator and the reference plant control room, | |||
such as physical location of panels, equipment, instruments, controls, labels, and related | |||
form and function). This activity counts for one Observation of Requalification Activity | |||
inspection sample. | |||
b. Findings | |||
No findings were identified. | |||
.2 Control Room Observations | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
Inspectors observed and assessed licensed operator performance in the plant and main | |||
control room, particularly during periods of heightened activity or risk and where the | |||
activities could affect plant safety. Inspectors reviewed various licensee policies and | |||
procedures such as OPDP-1, Conduct of Operations, NPG-SPP-10.0, Plant Operations | |||
and GOI-100-12, Power Maneuvering. | |||
Enclosure | |||
11 | |||
Inspectors utilized activities such as post maintenance testing, surveillance testing and | |||
refueling and other outage activities to focus on the following conduct of operations as | |||
appropriate; | |||
* Operator compliance and use of procedures. | |||
* Control board manipulations. | |||
* Communication between crew members. | |||
* Use and interpretation of plant instruments, indications and alarms. | |||
* Use of human error prevention techniques. | |||
* Documentation of activities, including initials and sign-offs in procedures. | |||
* Supervision of activities, including risk and reactivity management. | |||
* Pre-job briefs. | |||
This activity constituted one License Operator Requalification inspection sample and one | |||
Control Room Observation inspection sample. | |||

1R15 Operability Evaluations | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed the six operability/functional evaluations listed below to verify | |||
technical adequacy and ensure that the licensee had adequately assessed TS | |||
operability. The inspectors also reviewed applicable sections of the UFSAR to verify that | |||
the system or component remained available to perform its intended function. In | |||
addition, where appropriate, the inspectors reviewed licensee procedure NEDP-22, | |||
Functional Evaluations, to ensure that the licensees evaluation met procedure | |||
requirements. Furthermore, where applicable, inspectors examined the implementation | |||
of compensatory measures to verify that they achieved the intended purpose and that | |||
the measures were adequately controlled. The inspectors also reviewed PERs on a | |||
daily basis to verify that the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies | |||
associated with operability evaluations. This activity constituted six Operability | |||
Evaluation inspection samples. | |||
* RHRSW Rooms Appendix R Fire Barrier Impacted by Tarpaulin (PER 492957) | |||

* Unit 1 HPCI Turbine Stop Valve, 1-FCV-073-0018, Failed to Trip (PER 539040) | |||
b. Findings | |||
Two findings were identified. One finding is documented as a licensee identified violation | |||
in Section 4OA7. | |||
1) Introduction: The NRC identified a Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical | |||
Specification 5.4.1.a for the licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment | |||
Cooling Water (EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures which | |||
resulted in the inoperability of two other safety related pumps. | |||
Description: | |||
The safety related Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) pumps are housed | |||
in the A, B, C, and D rooms of the intake pumping station. UFSAR Section 12.2.7.1.1 | |||
states, in part, that each room is designed to protect the RHRSW pumps from water and | |||
wave forces resulting from a probable maximum flood (PMF) scenario. During | |||
Enclosure | |||
14 | |||
maintenance activities, the licensee maintained the design flood protection configuration | |||
through implementation of properly written work instructions. | |||
The C3 Emergency Equipment Cooling Water (EECW) pump is located in the C | |||
RHRSW pump room with two similarly designed C1 and C2 RHRSW pumps. On March | |||
26, 2012, the licensee had removed C3 pump from service for maintenance. The C3 | |||
pump and motor had been disassembled and the pump column removed from the intake | |||
sump pit through the pump base plate and foundation leaving an approximate 22 inch | |||
diameter hole. The hole was protected against flooding by a temporary 1/4 inch thick | |||
aluminum cover plate, over a rubber gasket and secured with 8 foundation bolts. The | |||
flood cover was prescribed by work order 112744581 and implemented by maintenance | |||
procedures MCI-0-023-PMP002, Maintenance of EECW and RHRSW Pumps, and MCI- | |||
0-023-PMP003, Emergency Equipment Cooling Water and Residual Heat Removal | |||
Service Water Pump Removal and Installation. | |||
On April 2, 2012, maintenance personnel removed the flood protection cover to facilitate | |||
an inspection. Personnel re-installed the cover with only two bolts and nuts run down to | |||
approximately one inch from being fully secured. On April 5, 2012, inspectors identified | |||
and informed the licensee of the inadequate flood protection barrier. The licensee | |||
immediately re-installed the flood protection cover in accordance with maintenance | |||
procedures. As an added corrective action, the licensee permanently stenciled the | |||
aluminum plate with the required procedure for installation. The licensee determined | |||
that the workers had re-installed the flood protection cover following the inspection | |||
assuming that it was only for foreign material exclusion. The licensee also determined | |||
that the foreman did not direct an adequate pre-job brief and assumed the workers knew | |||
of the procedural flood requirements. Furthermore, the licensee evaluated the | |||
inadequate flood barrier for past operability and concluded that the C RHRSW pump | |||
room would have flooded in the event of a PMF and that the other two RHRSW pumps | |||
in the room, C1 and C2, would be made nonfunctional. The licensee credited the slow | |||
progression of a PMF flood rise (four days and eight hours) to allow time to adequately | |||
install the flood protection cover, and therefore, prevent the loss of the RHRSW pumps. | |||
These actions were contained in licensee abnormal operating instruction 0-AOI-100-3, | |||
Flood Above Elevation 558. | |||
Analysis: The licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment Cooling Water | |||
(EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures was a performance | |||
deficiency. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the | |||
Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Events, and | |||
adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and | |||
capability of RHRSW pumps to perform their intended safety function during a design | |||
basis flooding event. Specifically, the improper re-installation of an external flood | |||
protection cover resulted in the inoperability of two RHRSW pumps. The significance of | |||
this finding was evaluated in accordance with the IMC 0609 Attachment 4, Phase 1- | |||
Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, which required a Phase 3 analysis | |||
because the finding involved the degradation of equipment designed to mitigate a | |||
flooding event and was risk significant due to external initiating event core damage | |||
sequences. A Phase 3 SDP analysis was performed by the regional Senior Reactor | |||
Analyst using a modified NRC plant model. The model had been modified to calculate | |||
Enclosure | |||
15 | |||
the impact on the plant from external flooding due to the failure of the RHRSW flood | |||
doors. The plant model was solved for a loss of condenser heat sink, with the initiating | |||
event frequency set to 5E-3 as a conservative estimate for the external flood. Also | |||
assumed was the unavailability of the power conversion system, since the circ water | |||
pumps, and their power supplies would be flooded. Condensate was assumed lost | |||
when the turbine building floods. RHRSW pumps and EECW pumps in the flooded | |||
RHRSW room were failed by model changes for different flood door failure basic events. | |||
This analysis failed only the C room door, which duplicated the impact of an unsecured | |||
flood barrier. For the 4 day exposure time, the result was several orders of magnitude | |||
below the CDF or LERF threshold for a finding of significance. The finding is Green | |||
because of the short exposure time, and the low likelihood of the flood. | |||
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Supervisory | |||
Oversight in the Work Practices component of the Human Performance area, because of | |||
supervisions assumption that workers knew to restore the flood protection cover to meet | |||
procedural requirements without a formal pre-job brief [H.4(c)]. | |||
Enforcement: TS 5.4.1.a. required that written procedures recommended in RG 1.33, | |||
Revision 2, Appendix A, shall be established, implemented, and maintained. Item 9.a of | |||
RG 1.33, Appendix A, stated, in part, that maintenance affecting the performance of | |||
safety-related equipment be properly performed in accordance with written procedures | |||
or documented instructions appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to the above, | |||
between April 2, and April 5, 2012, the licensee failed to properly perform maintenance | |||
procedures MCI-0-023-PMP002 and MCI-0-023-PMP003, Section 5.0.K. Specifically, | |||
the licensee failed to maintain a flood barrier during maintenance on C3 EECW Pump | |||
which resulted in the inoperability of C1 and C2 RHRSW Pumps. Because this finding is | |||
of very low safety significance (Green) and because it was entered into the licensees | |||
corrective action program as PER 532050, this violation is being treated as a non-cited | |||
violation consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy. This violation was applicable to | |||
U1, U2 and U3 and is identified as NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-01, Failure to | |||
Maintain Flood Barrier Results in Inoperable Safety Related Pumps. | |||
1R18 Plant Modifications | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed the two modifications listed below to verify regulatory | |||
requirements were met, along with procedures, as applicable, such as NPG-SPP-9.3, | |||
Plant Modifications and Engineering Change Control; NPG-SPP-9.5, Temporary | |||
Alterations; and NPG-SPP-6.9.3, Post-Modification Testing. The inspectors also | |||
reviewed the associated 10 CFR 50.59 screenings and evaluations and compared each | |||
against the UFSAR and TS to verify that the modifications did not affect operability or | |||
availability of the affected systems. Furthermore, the inspectors walked down each | |||
modification to ensure that it was installed in accordance with the modification | |||
documents and reviewed post-installation and removal testing to verify that the actual | |||
impact on permanent systems was adequately verified by the tests. This activity | |||
constituted two Plant Modification inspection samples. | |||

a. Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors witnessed and reviewed the six post-maintenance tests (PMT) listed | |||
below to verify that procedures and test activities confirmed SSC operability and | |||
functional capability following the described maintenance. The inspectors reviewed the | |||
licensees completed test procedures to ensure any of the SSC safety function(s) that | |||
may have been affected were adequately tested, that the acceptance criteria were | |||
consistent with information in the applicable licensing basis and/or design basis | |||
documents, and that the procedure had been properly reviewed and approved. The | |||
inspectors also reviewed the test data, to verify that test results adequately | |||
demonstrated restoration of the affected safety function(s). The inspectors verified that | |||
PMT activities were conducted in accordance with applicable WO instructions, or | |||
licensee procedural requirements. Furthermore, the inspectors verified that problems | |||
associated with PMTs were identified and entered into the CAP. This activity constituted | |||

1R20 Refueling and Other Outage Activities | |||
.1 Unit 3 Scheduled Refueling Outage (U3R15) | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
During April 7 to May 26, 2012, the inspectors examined critical outage activities to verify | |||
that they were conducted in accordance with technical specifications, applicable | |||
procedures, and the licensees outage risk assessment and management plans through | |||
the end of the reporting period. Some of the more significant inspection activities | |||
conducted by the inspectors were as follows: | |||
Outage Risk Assessment | |||
Prior to the Unit 3 scheduled 30 day U3C15 refueling outage that began on April 7, the | |||
inspectors attended outage risk assessment team meetings and reviewed the Outage | |||
Risk Assessment Report to verify that the licensee had appropriately considered risk, | |||
industry experience, and previous site-specific problems in developing and implementing | |||
an outage plan that assured defense-in-depth of safety functions were maintained. The | |||
inspectors also reviewed the daily U3C15 Refueling Outage Reports, including the | |||
Outage Risk Assessment Management (ORAM) Safety Function Status, and regularly | |||
attended the twice a day outage status meetings. These reviews were compared to the | |||
requirements in licensee procedure NPG-SPP-07.2, Outage Management, and technical | |||
specifications. These reviews were also done to verify that for identified high risk | |||
significant conditions, due to equipment availability and/or system configurations, | |||
contingency measures were identified and incorporated into the overall outage and | |||
contingency response plan. Furthermore, the inspectors frequently discussed risk | |||
conditions and designated protected equipment with Operations and outage | |||
management personnel to assess licensee awareness of actual risk conditions and | |||
mitigation strategies. | |||
Shutdown and Cooldown Process | |||
The inspectors witnessed the shutdown and cooldown of Unit 3 in accordance with | |||
licensee procedures OPDP-1, Conduct of Operations; 3-GOI-100-12A, Unit Shutdown | |||
from Power Operations to Cold Shutdown and Reduction in Power During Power | |||
Operations; and 3-SR-3.4.9.1(1), Reactor Heatup or Cooldown Rate Monitoring. | |||
Decay Heat Removal | |||
The inspectors reviewed licensee procedures 3-OI-74, Residual Heat Removal System | |||
(RHR); 3-OI-78, Fuel Pool Cooling and Cleanup System; and Abnormal Operating | |||
Instruction 0-AOI-72-1, Alternate Decay Heat Removal System Failures; and conducted | |||
a main control room panel and in-plant walkdowns of system and components to verify | |||
correct system alignment. During planned evolutions that resulted in an increased | |||
outage risk condition of Yellow for shutdown cooling, inspectors verified that the plant | |||
conditions and systems identified in the risk mitigation strategy were available. In | |||
addition, the inspectors reviewed controls implemented to ensure that outage work was | |||
Enclosure | |||
18 | |||
not impacting the ability of operators to operate spent fuel pool cooling, RHR shutdown | |||
cooling, and/or Alternate Decay Heat Removal (ADHR) system. Furthermore, the | |||
inspectors conducted several walkdowns of the ADHR system during operation with the | |||
fuel pool gates removed. | |||
Critical Outage Activities | |||
The inspectors examined outage activities to verify that they were conducted in | |||
accordance with technical specifications, licensee procedures, and the licensees outage | |||
risk control plan. Some of the more significant inspection activities accomplished by the | |||
inspectors were as follows: | |||
* Walked down selected safety-related equipment clearance orders (i.e., tag orders) | |||
* Verified Reactor Coolant System (RCS) inventory controls, especially during | |||
evolutions involving operations with the potential to drain the reactor vessel | |||
(OPDRV) | |||
* Verified electrical systems availability and alignment | |||
* Monitored important control room plant parameters (e.g., RCS pressure, level, flow, | |||
and temperature) and technical specifications compliance during the various | |||
shutdown modes of operation, and mode transitions | |||
* Evaluated implementation of reactivity controls | |||
* Reviewed control of containment penetrations and overall integrity | |||
* Examined foreign material exclusion controls particularly in proximity to and around | |||
the reactor cavity, equipment pit, and spent fuel pool | |||
* Routine tours of the control room, reactor building including areas normally | |||
inaccessible during power operations, refueling floor, torus and drywell. | |||
Reactor Vessel Disassembly and Refueling Activities | |||
The inspectors witnessed selected activities associated with reactor vessel disassembly, | |||
and reactor cavity flood-up and drain down in accordance with 3-GOI-100-3A, Refueling | |||
Operations (Reactor Vessel Disassembly and Floodup). Also, on numerous occasions, | |||
the inspectors witnessed fuel handling operations during the two Unit 3 reactor core fuel | |||
shuffles performed in accordance with technical specifications and applicable operating | |||
procedures. Inspectors also observed control rod unlatching and relatching for control | |||
rod drive mechanism change-outs. In addition, the inspectors verified specific fuel | |||
movements as delineated by the Fuel Assembly Transfer Sheets (FATF). Furthermore, | |||
the inspectors also witnessed and performed a 100 percent core verification examination | |||
of the video verification of the final completed reactor core. | |||
Drywell Closeout | |||
On May 17, 2012, the inspectors reviewed the licensees conduct of 3-GOI-200-2, | |||
Section 5.3 Drywell Closeout, and performed an independent detailed closeout | |||
inspection of the Unit 3 drywell. | |||
Enclosure | |||
19 | |||

Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety (OS) | |||
2RS1 Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Control | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
Radiological Hazard Assessment: The inspectors reviewed a number of radiological | |||
surveys, including those performed for airborne areas, of locations throughout the facility | |||
including the Unit 3 (U3) drywell, Unit 1 (U1), Unit 2 (U2), and U3 reactor buildings, the | |||
turbine building, and the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). The | |||
inspectors also walked down many of the same areas and select radioactive material | |||
storage locations with a survey instrument, evaluating material condition, postings, and | |||
radiological controls. Of specific interest was the Condensate Storage Tank area which | |||
due to a liquid radwaste processing problem created an actual radiation area outside the | |||
building, near on-going work. The inspectors observed jobs in radiologically risk- | |||
significant areas including high radiation areas and areas with, or with the potential for, | |||
airborne activity. The inspectors evaluated the surveys in relation to the identified | |||
hazards for sufficient detail and frequency. | |||
Instructions to Workers: During plant walk downs, the inspectors observed labeling and | |||
radiological controls on containers of radioactive material. The inspectors also reviewed | |||
radiation work permits (RWP) used for accessing high radiation areas and airborne | |||
areas, verifying that appropriate work control instructions and electronic dosimeter (ED) | |||
setpoints had been provided and to assess the communication of radiological control | |||
requirements to workers. The inspectors reviewed selected ED dose and dose rate | |||
alarms, to verify workers properly responded to the alarms and that the licensees review | |||
of the events was appropriate. The inspectors observed pre-job RWP briefings and | |||
health physics technician coverage of workers. The inspectors reviewed the various | |||
methods being used to notify workers of changing or changed radiological conditions. | |||
Contamination and Radioactive Material Control: The inspectors observed the release | |||
of potentially contaminated items from the radiologically controlled area (RCA) and from | |||
contaminated areas such as the drywell. The inspectors also reviewed the procedural | |||
requirements for, and equipment used to perform, the radiation surveys for release of | |||
personnel and material. During plant walk downs, the inspectors evaluated radioactive | |||
material storage areas and containers, including satellite RCAs and the low level | |||
radwaste facility, assessing material condition, posting/labeling, and control of | |||
materials/areas. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the sealed source inventory and | |||
verified labeling, storage conditions, and leak testing of selected sources. The | |||
inspectors verified if Category 1 and 2 sealed sources had been appropriately reported | |||
to the National Source Tracking System and physically verified the presence and | |||
controls of these sources. The sources were verified to be physically present and in | |||
proper working order. | |||
Enclosure | |||
24 | |||
Radiological Hazards Control and Work Coverage: The inspectors evaluated licensee | |||
performance in controlling worker access to radiologically significant areas and | |||
monitoring jobs in-progress associated with the Unit 3 refueling outage. Established | |||
radiological controls were evaluated for selected tasks including diver area setup for | |||
torus underwater coatings inspection and desludging activities, equipment staging for | |||
control rod drive work, reactor water cleanup sludge sampling, and work to support the | |||
extended power uprate for Unit 3. The inspectors evaluated the effectiveness of | |||
radiation exposure controls, including air sampling, barrier integrity, engineering controls, | |||
and postings through a review of both internal and external exposure results. The | |||
inspector followed up on two minor airborne radioactivity events. | |||
During walk downs with a radiation survey meter, the inspectors independently verified if | |||
ambient radiological conditions were consistent with licensee performed surveys, RWPs, | |||
and pre-job briefings; observed the adequacy of radiological controls; and observed | |||
controls for radioactive materials stored in the spent fuel pool. ED alarm set points and | |||
worker stay times were evaluated against area radiation survey results for drywell and | |||
refueling floor activities. | |||
Risk-Significant High Radiation Area and Very High Radiation Area Controls: The | |||
inspectors discussed the controls and procedures for locked-high radiation areas | |||
(LHRAs) and very high radiation areas (VHRAs) with health physics supervisors and the | |||
radiation protection manager. During plant walk downs, the inspectors verified the | |||
posting/locking of LHRA/VHRA areas. | |||
Radiation Worker Performance and Radiation Protection Technician Proficiency The | |||
inspectors observed radiation worker performance through direct observation, via | |||
remote camera monitoring, and via telemetry. These jobs were performed in high | |||
radiation, airborne, and/or contaminated areas. The inspectors also observed health | |||
physics technicians providing field coverage of jobs and providing remote coverage. | |||
Problem Identification & Resolution: Licensee Corrective Action Program (CAP) | |||
documents associated with radiation monitoring and exposure control were reviewed | |||

b. Findings | |||
.1 Failure to adequately secure radioactive shipping container contents for transport | |||
Introduction: A self-revealing Green Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, | |||
Transportation of Licensed Material, was identified for the licensees failure to ensure | |||
proper packaging of two DOT 7A Type A packages as required by 49 CFR 173.475(e), | |||
Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 (Radioactive) | |||
Materials. | |||
Description: On March 22, 2010, the licensee shipped control rod drive mechanisms | |||
(CRDMs) to GE Hitachi Nuclear (GEH) for refurbishment in six Department of | |||
Transportation (DOT) approved Type A boxes. Each box contained four CRDMs. In a | |||
letter dated September 17, 2010, GEH informed the licensee that their receipt inspection | |||
of containers 1343-S and 966-S on April 23, 2010, identified that pig shield containment | |||
lid restraint bars designed to secure the CRDMs and pig shields in place were not | |||
installed and were laying loose in the bottom of the container. The licensee documented | |||
the issue in PER 236118. Licensee investigation determined that the radwaste | |||
packaging inspector failed to follow procedural requirements and verify that the CRDMs | |||
were properly secured within the container to prevent movement during shipping. The | |||
inspectors reviewed the Container Certification, container closure procedure for the | |||
CRDM boxes, licensee radioactive material shipment procedures, and engineering | |||
documents concerning the container meeting DOT 7A requirements. The inspectors | |||
noted that although the container closure procedure did not specifically address internal | |||
packaging and the restraint bars, the container certification states that All contents must | |||
be securely positioned to prevent shifting during normal conditions of transport., and | |||
that site procedural guidance requires verification that the contents of the package have | |||
been secured and satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR 71.87, prior to shipment. | |||
Analysis: The failure to properly secure, or adequately block or brace the material within | |||
a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package to prevent movement during transport prior to | |||
shipment was determined to be a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee | |||
failed to follow established site procedures and applicable documents provided by the | |||
package vendor for package inspection and verification to ensure materials are secured | |||
within containers. The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the | |||
Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation | |||
attribute, involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone | |||
objective to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to | |||
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian | |||
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to correctly secure the package | |||
contents to prevent movement could have resulted in damage or failure of the container | |||
during transportation. The significance of the finding was evaluated using IMC 0612, | |||
Appendix D, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The issue | |||
was evaluated using the Public Radiation Safety flowchart because it involved | |||
radioactive material control, specifically, transportation. The finding was determined to | |||
be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being | |||
Enclosure | |||
30 | |||
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground | |||
non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications. | |||
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents, | |||
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human | |||
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate package design | |||
specifications into their transportation program to ensure that all internal restraining | |||
devices are correctly installed to secure the CRDM in place to prevent damage to the | |||
transport package. [H.2(c)] | |||
Enforcement: 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of Licensed Material, required, in part, that | |||
each licensee who transports licensed material outside the site of usage, as specified in | |||
the NRC license, or where transport is on public highways, or who delivers licensed | |||
material to a carrier for transport, shall comply with the applicable requirements of the | |||
DOT regulations in 49 CFR Parts 107, 171 through 180, and 390 through 397, | |||
appropriate to the mode of transport. | |||
49 CFR 173.475(e), Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 | |||
(Radioactive) Materials, required, in part, that before each shipment of any Class 7 | |||
(radioactive) materials package, the offeror must ensure, by examination or appropriate | |||
tests, that each special instruction for filling, closing, and preparation of the packaging | |||
for shipment has been followed. Licensee procedure RWTP-100, Radioactive | |||
Material/Waste Shipments, contains package inspection and verification requirements | |||
to ensure materials are secured within containers. | |||
Contrary to the above, on March 22, 2010, the licensee failed to comply with the | |||
applicable requirements of DOT regulation 49 CFR 173.475(e) for transport of licensed | |||
material. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow Container Certification guidance, in | |||
that the CRDMs were not properly packaged and secured inside two CRDM shipping | |||
containers as required by licensee procedure RWTP-100. Because this violation was of | |||
very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensees CAP (SR 570902), this | |||
violation is being treated as an NCV, in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC | |||
Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-02; Failure to Properly Prepare | |||
a DOT Type A Package for Transport) | |||
.2 Failure to Implement DOT Type A Package Closure Requirements | |||
Introduction: A self-revealing Green Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, | |||
Transportation of Licensed Material, was identified for the licensees failure to properly | |||
close a DOT 7A Type A packages as required by DOT 49 CFR 173.475(f) Quality | |||
Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 (Radioactive) Materials. | |||
Description: On September 7, 2011, the licensee shipped a DOT approved Type A | |||
shipping container, containing an ISP surveillance capsule, to MP Machinery and | |||
Testing, LLC (MPM) for analysis of the contents. In a letter dated September 9, 2011, | |||
MPM informed the licensee that upon arrival at the MPM facility the closure bolts on the | |||
shipping container were found to be undertorqued at 30 ft-lbs torque, not 390 ft-lbs | |||
torque as specified in the DOT Package Certification provided by MPM. The licensee | |||
Enclosure | |||
31 | |||
documented the issue in PER 431446. Licensee investigation determined that the ISP | |||
surveillance capsule shipping container closure bolts did not have the correct torque | |||
applied due to inadequate procedure guidance, unfamiliarity of the workers with the task, | |||
and a lack of procedure use and adherence. Preparation of the surveillance capsule for | |||
shipment occurred over several months, the Technical Instruction was revised during the | |||
period, and the container instructions provided by the vendor were not used during | |||
loading activities. The inspectors reviewed the DOT Package Certification, container | |||
loading and shipping instructions, Technical Instruction for obtaining and packaging the | |||
Reactor Vessel Test Specimens (both revisions), and the work order used to remove | |||
and package the ISP surveillance capsule for shipment. The inspectors noted that | |||
although detailed instructions for loading and closure of the container were provided by | |||
the vendor, the instructions and required container closure torque values were not | |||
included, or referenced, in the Technical Instruction or the work package. | |||
Analysis: The failure to properly close a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package was | |||
determined to be a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow | |||
established site procedures and applicable vendor documents for closing the package | |||
resulting in inadequate torque of the shipping container closure bolts. The finding was | |||
more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone, | |||
Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute, involving transportation | |||
packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure adequate | |||
protection of public health and safety from exposure to radioactive materials released | |||
into the public domain as a result of routine civilian nuclear reactor operation. | |||
Specifically, the failure to apply the correct torque to the package closure bolts could | |||
have resulted in incomplete sealing of the container or failure of the cover bolts during | |||
transportation. The significance of the finding was evaluated using IMC 0612, Appendix | |||
D, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The issue was | |||
evaluated using the Public Radiation Safety flowchart because it involved radioactive | |||
material control, specifically, transportation. The finding was determined to be of very | |||
low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being | |||
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground | |||
non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications | |||
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents, | |||
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human | |||
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate the vendor | |||
provided container loading and shipping instructions into their work package and | |||
transportation program to ensure correct torque values were used to close the shipping | |||
container. [H.2(c)] | |||
Enforcement: 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of Licensed Material, required, in part, that | |||
each licensee who transports licensed material outside the site of usage, as specified in | |||
the NRC license, or where transport is on public highways, or who delivers licensed | |||
material to a carrier for transport, shall comply with the applicable requirements of the | |||
DOT regulations in 49 CFR Parts 107, 171 through 180, and 390 through 397, | |||
appropriate to the mode of transport. | |||
Enclosure | |||
32 | |||
The | 49 CFR 173.475(f) Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 | ||
(Radioactive) Materials, required, in part, that each closure, valve, or other opening of | |||
the containment system through which the radioactive content might escape is properly | |||
closed and sealed. | |||
Contrary to the above, on September 7, 2011, the licensee failed to comply with the | |||
applicable requirements of DOT regulation 49 CFR 173.475(f) for transport of licensed | |||
material. Specifically, the licensee failed to properly close an opening in the containment | |||
system of a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package. Because this violation was of very | |||
low safety significance and it was entered into the licensees CAP (SR 571151), this | |||
violation is being treated as an NCV, in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC | |||
Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-03; Failure to Implement DOT | |||

identify potential PI occurrences. The inspectors verified the accuracy of the PI for ERO | |||
drill and exercise performance through review of a sample of drill and event records. | |||
The inspectors reviewed selected training records to verify the accuracy of the PI for | |||
ERO drill participation for personnel assigned to key positions in the ERO. The | |||
inspectors verified the accuracy of the PI for alert and notification system reliability | |||
through review of a sample of the licensees records of periodic system tests. The | |||
inspectors also interviewed the licensee personnel who were responsible for collecting | |||
and evaluating the PI data. Licensee procedures, records, and other documents | |||
reviewed within this inspection area are listed in the Attachment. This inspection | |||
satisfied three Emergency Preparedness inspection samples for PI verification on an | |||

.1 Review of items entered into the Corrective Action Program: | |||
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems, | |||
and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance | |||
issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the | |||
licensees CAP. This review was accomplished by reviewing daily PER and Service | |||
Request (SR) reports, and periodically attending Corrective Action Review Board | |||
(CARB) and PER Screening Committee (PSC) meetings. | |||
.2 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues - Operations with a Potential for Draining the | |||
Reactor Vessel (OPDRVs) | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the NRCs EMG-11-03, Enforcement | |||
Guidance Memorandum on Dispositioning Boiling Water Reactor Licensee | |||
Noncompliance with Technical Specification Containment Requirements During | |||
Operations with a Potential for Draining the Reactor Vessel (OPDRVs). The inspectors | |||
focused on the changes made to licensee procedure 3-POI-200.5, Operations with | |||
Potential for Draining the Reactor Vessel/Cavity and discussed OPDRVs with | |||
Operations staff. The inspectors reviewed the Main Control Room (MCR) operating logs | |||
to verify OPDRVs were identified by the MCR operating crew and appropriate action | |||
taken were necessary. The inspectors also walked down portions of the alternate | |||
reactor water level control make-up and let-down line line-ups to verify they were | |||
established in accordance with the licensees procedures. Documents reviewed are | |||
listed in the Attachment. This activity constituted one in-depth selected issue. | |||
b. Assessment and Observations | |||
No findings were identified. | |||
.3 Semiannual Review to Identify Trends | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, the inspectors performed a review of the | |||
licensees CAP implementation and associated documents to identify trends that could | |||
indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors review included | |||
the results from daily screening of individual PERs (see Section 4OA2.1 above), | |||
licensee trend reports and trending efforts, and independent searches of the PER | |||
database and WO history. The inspectors review nominally considered the six-month | |||
period of January 2012 through June 2012, although some searches expanded beyond | |||
Enclosure | |||
36 | |||
these dates. Additionally, the inspectors review also included the Integrated Trend | |||
Reports (ITR) from the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2012. The licensee | |||
reports covered the period of October 1, 2011, to March 31, 2012. Furthermore, the | |||
inspectors verified that adverse or negative trends identified in the licensees PERs, | |||
periodic reports and trending efforts were entered into the CAP. Inspectors interviewed | |||
the appropriate licensee staff and also reviewed procedures, NPG-SPP-02.8, Integrated | |||
Trend Review and NPG-SPP-02.7, PER Trending. | |||
The purpose of the licensees integrated trend reviews was to identify the top site and | |||
departmental issues (gaps to excellence) requiring management attention. Other | |||
objectives were to provide status of the top issues and their progress to resolution, | |||
identify continuing issues, emerging trends and issues to be monitored, review progress | |||
towards resolving past top issues, review issues identified by external organizations | |||
such as the NRC, INPO, Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB), QA, etc., and determine | |||
why they were not identified by line organizations. This activity constituted one | |||
semiannual trend review inspection sample. | |||
b. Findings and Observations | |||
No findings were identified, but the inspectors identified a number of observations as | |||
discussed below. | |||
Inspectors observed licensee-identified issues and trends in both the first and second | |||
quarter ITRs that were identical or similar in nature. Inspectors reviewed the repeat | |||
issues to assess the licensees progress of corrective actions associated with the issues | |||
and trends identified. Some of the more notable site/departmental issues were as | |||
follows: | |||
* Corrective Action Program (CAP): The CAP has not been considered as a core | |||
business function by the station. Improvement is needed with problem identification, | |||
cause evaluations and timely completion of corrective actions. This issue was | |||
documented in PERs 346645 and 471366. | |||
* Human Performance/Standards: Human performance practices resulted in | |||
consequential events, specifically: procedure use and adherence, procedure quality, | |||
accountability, human performance fundamentals, and the observation program. | |||
This issue was documented in PERs 410308 and 491985. | |||
* Procedure Use and Adherence: The first quarter 2012 ITR included this in the | |||
Human Performance area (Issue #2) and developed actions to drive rigorous use of | |||
procedures throughout all organization. The second quarter 2012 ITR included this | |||
with the Procedure/Work Order Quality/Procedure Use and Adherence area (Issue | |||
#2). This issue was documented in PERs 410308 and 491985. | |||
The second quarter ITR contained fifteen fundamental problem statements that were | |||
developed as a result of the 95003 supplemental inspection. The process is intended to | |||
determine the root organizational and/or cultural causes of these issues. Corrective | |||
actions were under development for these fifteen problem areas at the end of the | |||
reporting period. | |||
Enclosure | |||
37 | |||
The inspectors conducted an independent review of the licensees CAP to identify | |||
The | potential adverse trends. The inspectors identified a potential adverse trend with the | ||
licensees control of transient combustible materials in plant areas. A review of PERs | |||
from January 2012 to June 2012 revealed twelve PERs associated with transient and | |||
excessive combustible materials in plant areas however, a PER that identified this as a | |||
trend was not identified by the licensee staff. The inspectors discussed this issue with | |||
the appropriate licensee staff and PER 577382 was initiated to document this as an | |||
adverse trend. | |||
4OA3 Event Follow-up | |||
.1 Unit 3 Automatic Reactor Scram Following Refueling Outage | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On May 22, 2012, while recovering from a refueling outage with control rod and main | |||
turbine generator off-line testing in progress, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 19.5 | |||
percent power. Unit 3 scrammed due to a loss of offsite power when an inadvertent | |||
actuation of 3A Unit Station Service Transformer (USST) differential relay 387SA | |||
resulted from an incorrect relay setting. Inspectors promptly responded to the control | |||
room and verified that the unit was stable in Mode 3 (Hot Shutdown), and confirmed that | |||
all safety-related mitigating systems had operated properly. Inspectors evaluated safety | |||
equipment and operator performance before and after the event by examining existing | |||
plant parameters, strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, and | |||
the critical parameter trend charts used for the post-trip report. Inspectors also | |||
interviewed responsible on-shift operations personnel, examined the implementation of | |||
the applicable annunciator response procedures and abnormal operating instructions, | |||
including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram, and reviewed the written notification made in | |||
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. Inspectors discussed the preliminary cause of the | |||
incorrect relay setting with responsible Operations and Engineering personnel and | |||
monitored Plant Oversight Review Committee (PORC) event review and restart | |||
meetings. This review included only initial event follow-up. | |||
b. Findings | |||
No findings were identified. | |||
.2 Unit 3 Manual Reactor Scram Following Refueling Outage | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On May 24, 2012, Unit 3 was manually scrammed from Mode 2 (less than 1% rated | |||
power) when operators ranged down the Intermediate Range Monitor (IRM) 'H' | |||
instrument, instead of up, resulting in half scram on Reactor Protection System (RPS) 'B' | |||
trip system. The half scram was being reset after IRM 'H' was properly ranged. As the | |||
operator adjusted the reset scram switch, a spike on IRM 'A' was received on the RPS | |||
'A' trip system, resulting in a partial rod insertion. When the operator identified multiple | |||
Enclosure | |||
38 | |||
rods inserting, the actions of the Reactor Scram Procedure, 3-AOI-l00-1, were followed | |||
and a manual scram was inserted. The inspectors evaluated safety equipment and | |||
operator performance before and after the event by examining existing plant parameters, | |||
strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, the alarm typewriter | |||
Sequence of Events printout, and the critical parameter trend charts in the post-trip | |||
report. The inspectors interviewed responsible on-shift Operations personnel, examined | |||
the implementation of annunciator response and abnormal operating procedures, | |||
(including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram) and reviewed the written notification made in | |||
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. This review included only initial event follow up. | |||
b. Findings | |||
No findings were identified | |||
.3 Unit 3 Automatic Reactor Scram and Forced Outage | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On May 29, 2012, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 78 percent power due to a power | |||
to load unbalance (i.e., main generator load reject) automatic trip of the main turbine | |||
generator from an A-B phase trip of the main transformer differential relay 387T. The | |||
licensee identified the cause of the differential relay trip to be a B phase current | |||
transformer manufactured and installed with opposite polarity. Preliminarily, the licensee | |||
revealed that factory acceptance and field testing failed to detect the manufacturing | |||
defect of reverse polarity. Inspectors promptly responded to the control room and | |||
verified that the unit was stable in Mode 3 (Hot Shutdown), and confirmed that all safety- | |||
related mitigating systems had operated properly. Inspectors evaluated safety | |||
equipment and operator performance before and after the event by examining existing | |||
plant parameters, strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, and | |||
the critical parameter trend charts used for the post-trip report. Inspectors also | |||
interviewed responsible on-shift operations personnel, examined the implementation of | |||
the applicable annunciator response procedures and abnormal operating instructions, | |||
including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram, and reviewed the written notification made in | |||
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. Inspectors discussed the preliminary cause of the failed | |||
acceptance and installation testing with responsible Operations and Engineering | |||
personnel. This review included only initial event follow-up. | |||
Operators commenced restart of Unit 3 (i.e., entered Mode 2) on June 2 and achieved | |||
full power on June 6, 2011. During this short forced outage the inspectors examined the | |||
conduct of critical outage activities pursuant to technical specifications, applicable | |||
procedures, and the licensees risk assessment and maintenance plans. Some of the | |||
more significant outage activities monitored, examined and/or reviewed by the | |||
inspectors were as follows: | |||
* Plant Oversight Review Committee (PORC) event review and restart meetings. | |||
* Reactor startup and power ascension activities per 3-GOI-100-1A, Unit Startup | |||
* Reactor vessel and coolant heatup per 3-SR-3.4.9.1(1), Reactor Heatup and | |||
Cooldown Rate Monitoring | |||
Enclosure | |||
39 | |||
* Outage risk assessment and management | |||
* Control and management of forced outage and emergent work activities | |||
Corrective Action Program | |||
The inspectors reviewed PERs generated during the Unit 3 forced outage and attended | |||
management review committee meetings to verify that initiation thresholds, priorities, | |||
mode holds, and significance levels were assigned as required. | |||
b. Findings | |||
No findings were identified | |||
.4 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000296/2011-003-00, Automatic Reactor | |||
Scram Due to a Main Turbine Generator Load Reject. | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On September 28, 2011, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 100 percent power due to | |||
a power to load unbalance (i.e., main generator load reject) automatic trip of the main | |||
turbine generator (MTG) caused by a broken debris screen. The initial follow-up of this | |||
event by the inspectors was documented in Section 4OA3.10 of IR 05000296/2011004. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the applicable LER that was issued on November 28, 2011, | |||
and its associated PER 440539, which included the root cause analysis (RCA) and | |||
corrective actions. The licensee concluded that the direct cause of the Unit 3 turbine trip | |||
and scram was the isolated-phase bus C debris screen failure. | |||
b. Findings | |||
No findings were identified | |||
.5 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000259,296 /2011-009-02, As-Found | |||
Undervoltage Trip for the Reactor Protection System 1A1 Relay that Did Not Meet | |||
Acceptance Criteria During Several Surveillances | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed Revision 2 of LER 05000259/2011-009 dated April 25, 2012, | |||
PER 486780, and the associated operability determination, and corrective action plans. | |||
This revised LER was submitted to provide the results of the licensees completed | |||
investigation and evaluation of a second Reactor Protection System (RPS) relay that did | |||
not meet its acceptance criteria during previous surveillance testing for the same reason. | |||
The original LER 05000259/2011-009-00 dated December 5, 2011, the revised LER | |||
05000259/2011-009-01 dated January 31, 2012, applicable PERs 413140 and 442914, | |||
including root cause analysis, operability determination and corrective action plans, were | |||
reviewed by the inspectors and documented in Sections 4OA3.1 and 4OA7 of NRC IR | |||
Enclosure | |||
40 | |||
05000259/2012002. As a result of this prior review, the licensee had identified one | |||
violation of NRC requirements associated with Unit 1 RPS 1A1 relay. | |||
On January 6, 2012, while performing an operability determination for the Unit 3 reactor | |||
protection system (RPS) 3C1 relay undervoltage trips, the licensee determined that the | |||
as-found undervoltage trip setpoint for the Unit 3 relay was less than the required | |||
acceptance criteria during several technical specification surveillances. Seven of the | |||
last thirteen surveillance test results were below the technical specification acceptance | |||
criteria. Therefore, based on performance history, the RPS 3C1 relay was determined to | |||
be inoperable from June 9, 2006, to February 2, 2012, when the relay was replaced. | |||
The licensee determined the previous root cause and corrective actions were applicable | |||
in that the surveillance test program did not require past operability reviews when out of | |||
calibration technical specification conditions were corrected during surveillances. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the second LER revision and verified that the supplemental | |||
information provided in the LER was complete and accurate and that the information | |||
was not of a significant nature to warrant any change to the original LER finding. | |||
This licensee identified violation constitutes an additional example as documented in | |||
NRC IR 05000259/2012002 and is not an individual non-cited violation. Further | |||
corrective actions for this additional example are expected to be taken in conjunction | |||
with corrective actions for the previous violation. | |||
b. Findings | |||
One finding for the original and Revision 1 of the LER was previously identified in | |||
Section 4OA7 of NRC IR 05000259/2012002. No additional findings were identified. | |||
The revised LER is considered closed. | |||
.6 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000296/2012-001-00, Annunciator Panel | |||
Power Supply Fire in Unit 3 Control Room | |||
a. Inspection Scope | |||
On January 26, 2012, Unit 3 main control room operators smelled smoke and observed | |||
a flame coming from the bottom of an annunciator panel 3-XA-55-5A power supply. Fire | |||
Operations personnel arrived on the scene within five minutes. The affected circuit | |||
breaker was opened and fire extinguished within ten minutes. Operations personnel | |||
increased plant monitoring to compensate for indications that lost their alarming | |||
functions when the circuit breaker was opened. The fire damage was limited to the | |||
failed annunciator power supply and the power supply directly above it. The inspectors | |||
reviewed the details surrounding this event, interviewed operations and engineering | |||
personnel involved with this issue and reviewed the licensees apparent cause | |||
determination report. This was captured in the licensees corrective action program as | |||
problem event report (PER) 496592. This LER is closed. | |||

b. Findings | |||
Introduction: A self-revealing Green finding (FIN) was identified for the licensees failure | |||
to perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room (MCR) annunciator | |||
power supplies. As a result, a power supply failed which led to a fire in annunciator | |||
panel 3-XA-55-5A in the Unit 3 MCR. | |||
Description: On January 26, 2012, Unit 3 main control room operators smelled smoke | |||
and observed a flame coming from the bottom of an annunciator panel power supply. | |||
Within ten minutes, the Fire Brigade responded to the MCR and the circuit breaker was | |||
opened for the affected power supply which extinguished the fire. Damage was confined | |||
to two power supplies in annunciator panel 3-XA-55-5A. The damaged power supplies | |||
were replaced on January 27, 2012 in accordance with Work Order (WO) 113155456. | |||
Corrective action document PER 496592 identified the direct cause of the annunciator | |||
power supply failure as an overcurrent condition caused by a failed electrolytic capacitor. | |||
This PER referenced EPRI recommendations to change out components with electrolytic | |||
capacitors on a time based frequency. TVAs apparent cause concluded the power | |||
supply (capacitor), installed for thirty four (34) years, experienced an age related failure | |||
due to a lack of preventive maintenance. | |||
Age-related failures of electrolytic capacitors have been documented in the industry. | |||
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) document, TR-112175, Capacitor Application | |||
and Maintenance Guide, dated August 1999, stated that capacitor change outs are | |||
performed between 7 and 15 years depending on vendor recommendations and plant | |||
operating experience. Another EPRI document, Power Supply Maintenance and | |||
Application Guide (1003096), dated December 2001, stated that many of the power | |||
supplies that failed had been in service greater than 15 years on average. Since 2008 | |||
three PERs have been entered in TVAs CAP that document similar failures of these | |||
annunciator power supplies on both Unit 2 and 3 main control room panels. PER | |||
391479 was initiated in June 2011 to evaluate the equipment reliability classification of | |||
these power supplies. Corrective actions to evaluate the annunciator power supply | |||
preventive maintenance strategy were in progress when the fire occurred. | |||
These power supplies were classified as Quality-Related, Non-Critical, Low Duty-Cycle, | |||
Mild Service Condition in accordance with licensee procedure NPG-SPP-09.18.2, | |||
Equipment Reliability Classification. Licensee procedure TVA-NQA-PLN89-A, Nuclear | |||
Quality Assurance Plan stated that the nuclear maintenance program including | |||
corrective and preventive maintenance shall ensure that quality-related structures, | |||
systems and components are maintained at a level sufficient to perform their intended | |||
functions. | |||
Analysis: The failure to perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 annunciator | |||
power supplies prior to their age related failure was a performance deficiency. | |||
Specifically, TVA procedure TVA-NQA-PLN89-A, Nuclear Quality Assurance Plan stated | |||
that the nuclear maintenance program including corrective and preventive maintenance | |||
shall ensure that quality-related structures, systems and components are maintained at | |||
a level sufficient to perform their intended functions. These power supplies were | |||
classified as Quality-Related according to TVA procedure NPG-SPP-09.18.2, Equipment | |||
Enclosure | |||
42 | |||
Reliability Classification. As a result of the performance deficiency, a Unit 3 MCR | |||
annunciator power supply was left in service for 34 years, failed due to an aged | |||
electrolytic capacitor and resulted in an over-current related fire. The performance | |||
: | deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was considered sufficiently | ||
similar to example 4.f of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0612, Appendix E, for an | |||
issue that resulted in a fire hazard in a safety-related area of the plant. The finding was | |||
associated with the Initiating Events Cornerstone and initially characterized according to | |||
IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP), Attachment 4, Phase 1 - Initial | |||
Screening and Characterization of Findings. The results of this analysis required a | |||
phase 3 evaluation in accordance with IMC 0609 because the finding increased the | |||
likelihood of and actually caused a fire in the Unit 3 MCR. The regional Senior Reactor | |||
Analyst performed a Phase 3 analysis for the issue. Pictures were provided to an NRC | |||
contractor who provides expertise in fire damage for the agency. It was determined that | |||
the configuration of the fire would not likely result in damage to anything of significance | |||
because the metal box that the annunciators power supplies are located in, would | |||
prevent propagation of the fire beyond the box. It is also unlikely that enough heat or | |||
smoke could be created to require control room evacuation, which would impact the | |||
human actions that would be performed to shut down the plant. Without an impact to | |||
additional plant equipment, or a major impact on human action failure rates, the finding | |||
was determined to be Green. The cause of this finding was related to the cross cutting | |||
aspect of Problem Identification in the Corrective Action Program component of the | |||
Problem Identification and Resolution area, because the licensee was aware of three | |||
previous failures of these power supplies in July 2009 and should have recognized that | |||
the electrolytic capacitors, installed beyond their recommended service life, required | |||
replacement prior to failure [P.1(a)]. | |||
Enforcement: Enforcement action does not apply because the performance deficiency | |||
did not involve a violation of regulatory requirements since the main control room | |||
annunciator power supplies were not safety-related. Because the finding does not | |||
involve a violation, was entered into the licensees corrective action program as PER | |||
496592, and has very low safety significance, it is identified as FIN 05000296/2012003- | |||
04, Failure to Perform Preventive Maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room | |||
Annunciator Power Supplies. | |||

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations | |||
The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by the | |||
licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which met the criteria of the NRC | |||
Enforcement Policy, for being dispositioned as a Non-Cited Violation: | |||
* A violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a was identified by the licensee for the | |||
failure to establish adequate work instructions to ensure proper installation of the gap | |||
setting between the actuator stem and valve stem of Unit 1 HPCI, (High Pressure | |||
Coolant Injection), turbine stop valve, 1-FCV-073-0018. On April 19, 2012, during | |||
the performance of a quarterly surveillance test the turbine stop valve, 1-FCV-073- | |||
0018, failed to close upon repeated demands. A Phase 3 analysis determined the | |||
significance of the finding was very low safety significance (Green) The regional | |||
Senior Reactor Analyst performed a Phase 3 SDP analysis on the finding. The risk | |||
was dominated by the unavailability of the HPCI during the repair time after | |||
discovery of the Stop Valve issue. The finding was determined to be GREEN in the | |||
SDP, primarily due to the short period of time it was fully non-functional. The | |||
licensee initiated PER 539040 to enter the issue into their corrective action program. | |||

Dear Mr. Shea:
On June 30, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at
your Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant, Units 1, 2, and 3. The enclosed inspection report documents
the inspection results which were discussed on July 10, August 10 and 14th, 2012, with Mr.
Keith Polson and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and
compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations, orders, and with the conditions of your
license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and
interviewed personnel.
One NRC identified and 3 self revealing findings of very low safety significance (Green) were
identified during this inspection. Three of these findings were determined to involve violations of
NRC requirements. Further, a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very
low safety significance is listed in this report. The NRC is treating the violations as non-cited
violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. If you contest these
non-cited violations, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection
report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000259/2012003, 05000260/2012003, 05000296/2012003, 05000259/2012502,
05000260/2012502, 05000296/2012502; 04/01/2012 -06/30/2012; Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant,
Units 1, 2 and 3; Operability Evaluations, Radioactive Solid Waste Processing and Radioactive
Material Handling, Storage, and Transportation, and Event Follow-Up.
The report covered a three month period of inspection by resident and regional inspectors. Four
findings were identified. The significance of most findings is identified by their color (Green,
White, Yellow, and Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Significance
Determination Process (SDP); and, the cross-cutting aspects were determined using IMC
0310, Components Within the Cross-Cutting Areas. Findings for which the SDP does not
apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRCs
program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in
NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process Revision 4, dated December 2006.
NRC Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
- Green. A self-revealing finding (FIN) was identified for the licensees failure to
perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room (MCR)
annunciator power supplies. As a result, a power supply failed which led to a fire in
annunciator panel 3-X-55-5A in the Unit 3 control room. The licensee initiated
actions to extinguish the fire, replace the two affected power supplies and develop a
preventive maintenance program to replace the power supplies every ten years.
Additional corrective actions to replace all power supplies that have been installed for
more than four years are pending. This was captured in the licensees corrective
action program as problem event report (PER) 496592.
The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was
considered sufficiently similar to example 4.f of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC)
0612, Appendix E, for an issue that resulted in a fire hazard in a safety-related area
of the plant. The finding was associated with the Initiating Events Cornerstone and
required a phase 3 analysis in accordance with IMC 0609 because the finding
increased the likelihood of, and actually caused, a fire in the Unit 3 control room.
The phase 3 analysis determined that without an impact to additional plant
equipment, or a major impact on human action failure rates, the finding was
determined to be Green. The cause of this finding was related to the cross cutting
aspect of Problem Identification in the Corrective Action Program component of the
Problem Identification and Resolution area because the licensee should have
recognized the electrolytic capacitors were installed beyond their recommended
service life and scheduled replacement prior to their failure P.1(a). (Section
4OA3.6)
Enclosure
3
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- Green. An NRC-identified non-cited violation (NCV) of the Technical Specifications
5.4.1.a was identified for the licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment
Cooling Water (EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures
which resulted in the inoperability of two other safety related pumps. The licensee
immediately restored the flood protection configuration of the C Residual Heat
Removal Service Water (RHRSW) pump room by properly re-installing the flood
protection cover and permanently stenciled the aluminum plate with the required
procedure for installation. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action
program as PER 532050.
The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating
Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Events, and adversely
affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability
of RHRSW pumps to perform their intended safety function during a design basis
flooding event. Specifically, the improper re-installation of an external flood
protection cover resulted in the inoperability of two Residual Heat Removal Service
Water (RHRSW) pumps. The significance of this finding was evaluated in
accordance with the IMC 0609 Attachment 4, Phase 1- Initial Screening and
Characterization of Findings, which required a Phase 3 analysis because the finding
involved the degradation of equipment designed to mitigate a flooding event and it
was risk significant due to external initiating event core damage sequences. The
finding was determined to be Green because of the short exposure time, and the low
likelihood of the flood. The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross
cutting aspect of Supervisory Oversight in the Work Practices component of the
Human Performance area, because of the foremans assumption that workers knew
to restore the flood protection cover to meet procedural requirements without a
formal pre-job brief H.4(c). (Section 1R15)
Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety
- Green. A self-revealing non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of
Licensed Material, was identified by inspectors for the licensees failure to comply
with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations during shipment of radioactive
materials. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure proper packaging of two DOT 7A
Type A packages as required by Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations in
49 CFR 173.475, Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7
(Radioactive) Materials. This issue has been entered into the licensees corrective
action program as SR 570902.
The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation
Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute,
involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective,
to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to correctly secure the package
Enclosure
4
contents to prevent movement could have resulted in damage or failure of the
container during transportation. The finding was determined to be of very low safety
significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being exceeded, a
package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground non-
conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications. The cause of this finding
was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents, Procedures and
Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human Performance area
because the licensee did not effectively incorporate package design specifications
into their transportation program to ensure that all internal restraining devices are
correctly installed to secure the CRDM in place to prevent damage to the transport
package. (H.2(c)) (Section 2RS8)
- Green. A self-revealing non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of
Licensed Material, was identified by inspectors for the licensees failure to comply
with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations during shipment of radioactive
materials. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure proper closure of a DOT 7A Type
A package as required by Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations in 49
CFR 173.475, Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7
(Radioactive) Materials. This issue has been entered into the licensees corrective
action program as SR 571151.
The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation
Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute,
involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective,
to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to apply the correct torque to the
package closure bolts could have resulted in incomplete sealing of the container or
failure of the cover bolts during transportation. The finding was determined to be of
very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial
ground non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications. The cause
of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents,
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate the vendor
provided container loading and shipping instructions into their work package and
transportation program to ensure correct torque values were used to close the
shipping container. (H.2(c)) (Section 2RS8).

Unit 2 operated at full power for most of the report period except for one planned and one
unplanned downpower. On April 20, 2012, the unit performed a planned downpower to 66
percent power for rod pattern adjustment, scram time testing and turbine valve testing. The unit
returned to full power on April 22nd. On May 15, 2012, the unit performed an unplanned
downpower to 92 percent power to insert control rod 30-51 for scram outlet valve repair and
returned to full power the same day.
Unit 3 operated at full power for most of the report period except for one planned downpower,
one manual and two automatic scrams, and one unplanned downpower. On April 6, 2012, the
unit was shutdown for a scheduled refueling outage that lasted 49 days. The unit was restarted
on May 19th. On May 22nd, an automatic scram occurred from 19.5 percent power with the
main turbine generator offline due to a 3A Unit Station Service Transformer differential relay trip
caused by incorrect relay setting. On May 24, 2012, during reactor startup and heatup an
unplanned manual scram occurred as a result of a partial control rod insertion caused by a
combination of a signal spike and an inappropriate operator downrange on separate
intermediate power range monitors. The unit restarted the same day. On May 29, 2012, a main
generator current transformer manufactured and installed with reverse polarity caused an
automatic scram from 75 percent power. The unit restarted on June 2nd and returned to full
power on June 5th. On June 6th, the unit performed an unplanned downpower from 96 percent
power to 75 percent power to remove the 3B condensate booster pump with high moisture in its
oil system from service. The unit returned to full power on June 8, 2012.

b. Findings
Two findings were identified. One finding is documented as a licensee identified violation
in Section 4OA7.
1) Introduction: The NRC identified a Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical
Specification 5.4.1.a for the licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment
Cooling Water (EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures which
resulted in the inoperability of two other safety related pumps.
Description:
The safety related Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) pumps are housed
in the A, B, C, and D rooms of the intake pumping station. UFSAR Section 12.2.7.1.1
states, in part, that each room is designed to protect the RHRSW pumps from water and
wave forces resulting from a probable maximum flood (PMF) scenario. During
Enclosure
14
maintenance activities, the licensee maintained the design flood protection configuration
through implementation of properly written work instructions.
The C3 Emergency Equipment Cooling Water (EECW) pump is located in the C
RHRSW pump room with two similarly designed C1 and C2 RHRSW pumps. On March
26, 2012, the licensee had removed C3 pump from service for maintenance. The C3
pump and motor had been disassembled and the pump column removed from the intake
sump pit through the pump base plate and foundation leaving an approximate 22 inch
diameter hole. The hole was protected against flooding by a temporary 1/4 inch thick
aluminum cover plate, over a rubber gasket and secured with 8 foundation bolts. The
flood cover was prescribed by work order 112744581 and implemented by maintenance
procedures MCI-0-023-PMP002, Maintenance of EECW and RHRSW Pumps, and MCI-
0-023-PMP003, Emergency Equipment Cooling Water and Residual Heat Removal
Service Water Pump Removal and Installation.
On April 2, 2012, maintenance personnel removed the flood protection cover to facilitate
an inspection. Personnel re-installed the cover with only two bolts and nuts run down to
approximately one inch from being fully secured. On April 5, 2012, inspectors identified
and informed the licensee of the inadequate flood protection barrier. The licensee
immediately re-installed the flood protection cover in accordance with maintenance
procedures. As an added corrective action, the licensee permanently stenciled the
aluminum plate with the required procedure for installation. The licensee determined
that the workers had re-installed the flood protection cover following the inspection
assuming that it was only for foreign material exclusion. The licensee also determined
that the foreman did not direct an adequate pre-job brief and assumed the workers knew
of the procedural flood requirements. Furthermore, the licensee evaluated the
inadequate flood barrier for past operability and concluded that the C RHRSW pump
room would have flooded in the event of a PMF and that the other two RHRSW pumps
in the room, C1 and C2, would be made nonfunctional. The licensee credited the slow
progression of a PMF flood rise (four days and eight hours) to allow time to adequately
install the flood protection cover, and therefore, prevent the loss of the RHRSW pumps.
These actions were contained in licensee abnormal operating instruction 0-AOI-100-3,
Flood Above Elevation 558.
Analysis: The licensees failure to maintain an Emergency Equipment Cooling Water
(EECW) pump flood barrier in accordance with written procedures was a performance
deficiency. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the
Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Events, and
adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and
capability of RHRSW pumps to perform their intended safety function during a design
basis flooding event. Specifically, the improper re-installation of an external flood
protection cover resulted in the inoperability of two RHRSW pumps. The significance of
this finding was evaluated in accordance with the IMC 0609 Attachment 4, Phase 1-
Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, which required a Phase 3 analysis
because the finding involved the degradation of equipment designed to mitigate a
flooding event and was risk significant due to external initiating event core damage
sequences. A Phase 3 SDP analysis was performed by the regional Senior Reactor
Analyst using a modified NRC plant model. The model had been modified to calculate
Enclosure
15
the impact on the plant from external flooding due to the failure of the RHRSW flood
doors. The plant model was solved for a loss of condenser heat sink, with the initiating
event frequency set to 5E-3 as a conservative estimate for the external flood. Also
assumed was the unavailability of the power conversion system, since the circ water
pumps, and their power supplies would be flooded. Condensate was assumed lost
when the turbine building floods. RHRSW pumps and EECW pumps in the flooded
RHRSW room were failed by model changes for different flood door failure basic events.
This analysis failed only the C room door, which duplicated the impact of an unsecured
flood barrier. For the 4 day exposure time, the result was several orders of magnitude
below the CDF or LERF threshold for a finding of significance. The finding is Green
because of the short exposure time, and the low likelihood of the flood.
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Supervisory
Oversight in the Work Practices component of the Human Performance area, because of
supervisions assumption that workers knew to restore the flood protection cover to meet
procedural requirements without a formal pre-job brief H.4(c).
Enforcement: TS 5.4.1.a. required that written procedures recommended in RG 1.33,
Revision 2, Appendix A, shall be established, implemented, and maintained. Item 9.a of
RG 1.33, Appendix A, stated, in part, that maintenance affecting the performance of
safety-related equipment be properly performed in accordance with written procedures
or documented instructions appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to the above,
between April 2, and April 5, 2012, the licensee failed to properly perform maintenance
procedures MCI-0-023-PMP002 and MCI-0-023-PMP003, Section 5.0.K. Specifically,
the licensee failed to maintain a flood barrier during maintenance on C3 EECW Pump
which resulted in the inoperability of C1 and C2 RHRSW Pumps. Because this finding is
of very low safety significance (Green) and because it was entered into the licensees
corrective action program as PER 532050, this violation is being treated as a non-cited
violation consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy. This violation was applicable to
U1, U2 and U3 and is identified as NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-01, Failure to
Maintain Flood Barrier Results in Inoperable Safety Related Pumps.
1R18 Plant Modifications
a. Inspection Scope

requirements were met, along with procedures, as applicable, such as NPG-SPP-9.3,
Plant Modifications and Engineering Change Control; NPG-SPP-9.5, Temporary
Alterations; and NPG-SPP-6.9.3, Post-Modification Testing. The inspectors also
reviewed the associated 10 CFR 50.59 screenings and evaluations and compared each
against the UFSAR and TS to verify that the modifications did not affect operability or
availability of the affected systems. Furthermore, the inspectors walked down each
modification to ensure that it was installed in accordance with the modification
documents and reviewed post-installation and removal testing to verify that the actual
impact on permanent systems was adequately verified by the tests. This activity
constituted two Plant Modification inspection samples.

1R20 Refueling and Other Outage Activities
.1 Unit 3 Scheduled Refueling Outage (U3R15)
a. Inspection Scope
During April 7 to May 26, 2012, the inspectors examined critical outage activities to verify
that they were conducted in accordance with technical specifications, applicable
procedures, and the licensees outage risk assessment and management plans through
the end of the reporting period. Some of the more significant inspection activities
conducted by the inspectors were as follows:
Outage Risk Assessment
Prior to the Unit 3 scheduled 30 day U3C15 refueling outage that began on April 7, the
inspectors attended outage risk assessment team meetings and reviewed the Outage
Risk Assessment Report to verify that the licensee had appropriately considered risk,
industry experience, and previous site-specific problems in developing and implementing
an outage plan that assured defense-in-depth of safety functions were maintained. The
inspectors also reviewed the daily U3C15 Refueling Outage Reports, including the
Outage Risk Assessment Management (ORAM) Safety Function Status, and regularly
attended the twice a day outage status meetings. These reviews were compared to the
requirements in licensee procedure NPG-SPP-07.2, Outage Management, and technical
specifications. These reviews were also done to verify that for identified high risk
significant conditions, due to equipment availability and/or system configurations,
contingency measures were identified and incorporated into the overall outage and
contingency response plan. Furthermore, the inspectors frequently discussed risk
conditions and designated protected equipment with Operations and outage
management personnel to assess licensee awareness of actual risk conditions and
mitigation strategies.
Shutdown and Cooldown Process
The inspectors witnessed the shutdown and cooldown of Unit 3 in accordance with
licensee procedures OPDP-1, Conduct of Operations; 3-GOI-100-12A, Unit Shutdown
from Power Operations to Cold Shutdown and Reduction in Power During Power
Operations; and 3-SR-3.4.9.1(1), Reactor Heatup or Cooldown Rate Monitoring.
The inspectors reviewed licensee procedures 3-OI-74, Residual Heat Removal System
(RHR); 3-OI-78, Fuel Pool Cooling and Cleanup System; and Abnormal Operating
Instruction 0-AOI-72-1, Alternate Decay Heat Removal System Failures; and conducted
a main control room panel and in-plant walkdowns of system and components to verify
correct system alignment. During planned evolutions that resulted in an increased
outage risk condition of Yellow for shutdown cooling, inspectors verified that the plant
conditions and systems identified in the risk mitigation strategy were available. In
addition, the inspectors reviewed controls implemented to ensure that outage work was
Enclosure
18
not impacting the ability of operators to operate spent fuel pool cooling, RHR shutdown
cooling, and/or Alternate Decay Heat Removal (ADHR) system. Furthermore, the
inspectors conducted several walkdowns of the ADHR system during operation with the
fuel pool gates removed.
Critical Outage Activities
The inspectors examined outage activities to verify that they were conducted in
accordance with technical specifications, licensee procedures, and the licensees outage
risk control plan. Some of the more significant inspection activities accomplished by the
inspectors were as follows:
- Walked down selected safety-related equipment clearance orders (i.e., tag orders)
- Verified Reactor Coolant System (RCS) inventory controls, especially during
evolutions involving operations with the potential to drain the reactor vessel
(OPDRV)
- Verified electrical systems availability and alignment
- Monitored important control room plant parameters (e.g., RCS pressure, level, flow,
and temperature) and technical specifications compliance during the various
shutdown modes of operation, and mode transitions
- Evaluated implementation of reactivity controls
- Reviewed control of containment penetrations and overall integrity
- Examined foreign material exclusion controls particularly in proximity to and around
the reactor cavity, equipment pit, and spent fuel pool
- Routine tours of the control room, reactor building including areas normally
inaccessible during power operations, refueling floor, torus and drywell.
Reactor Vessel Disassembly and Refueling Activities
The inspectors witnessed selected activities associated with reactor vessel disassembly,
and reactor cavity flood-up and drain down in accordance with 3-GOI-100-3A, Refueling
Operations (Reactor Vessel Disassembly and Floodup). Also, on numerous occasions,
the inspectors witnessed fuel handling operations during the two Unit 3 reactor core fuel
shuffles performed in accordance with technical specifications and applicable operating
procedures. Inspectors also observed control rod unlatching and relatching for control
rod drive mechanism change-outs. In addition, the inspectors verified specific fuel

2. RADIATION SAFETY
Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety (OS)
2RS1 Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Control
a. Inspection Scope
Radiological Hazard Assessment: The inspectors reviewed a number of radiological
surveys, including those performed for airborne areas, of locations throughout the facility
including the Unit 3 (U3) drywell, Unit 1 (U1), Unit 2 (U2), and U3 reactor buildings, the
turbine building, and the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). The
inspectors also walked down many of the same areas and select radioactive material
storage locations with a survey instrument, evaluating material condition, postings, and
radiological controls. Of specific interest was the Condensate Storage Tank area which
due to a liquid radwaste processing problem created an actual radiation area outside the
building, near on-going work. The inspectors observed jobs in radiologically risk-
significant areas including high radiation areas and areas with, or with the potential for,
airborne activity. The inspectors evaluated the surveys in relation to the identified
hazards for sufficient detail and frequency.
Instructions to Workers: During plant walk downs, the inspectors observed labeling and
radiological controls on containers of radioactive material. The inspectors also reviewed
radiation work permits (RWP) used for accessing high radiation areas and airborne
areas, verifying that appropriate work control instructions and electronic dosimeter (ED)
setpoints had been provided and to assess the communication of radiological control
requirements to workers. The inspectors reviewed selected ED dose and dose rate
alarms, to verify workers properly responded to the alarms and that the licensees review
of the events was appropriate. The inspectors observed pre-job RWP briefings and
health physics technician coverage of workers. The inspectors reviewed the various
methods being used to notify workers of changing or changed radiological conditions.
Contamination and Radioactive Material Control: The inspectors observed the release
of potentially contaminated items from the radiologically controlled area (RCA) and from
contaminated areas such as the drywell. The inspectors also reviewed the procedural
requirements for, and equipment used to perform, the radiation surveys for release of
personnel and material. During plant walk downs, the inspectors evaluated radioactive
material storage areas and containers, including satellite RCAs and the low level
radwaste facility, assessing material condition, posting/labeling, and control of
materials/areas. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the sealed source inventory and
verified labeling, storage conditions, and leak testing of selected sources. The
inspectors verified if Category 1 and 2 sealed sources had been appropriately reported
to the National Source Tracking System and physically verified the presence and
controls of these sources. The sources were verified to be physically present and in
proper working order.
Enclosure
24
Radiological Hazards Control and Work Coverage: The inspectors evaluated licensee
performance in controlling worker access to radiologically significant areas and
monitoring jobs in-progress associated with the Unit 3 refueling outage. Established
radiological controls were evaluated for selected tasks including diver area setup for
torus underwater coatings inspection and desludging activities, equipment staging for
control rod drive work, reactor water cleanup sludge sampling, and work to support the
extended power uprate for Unit 3. The inspectors evaluated the effectiveness of
radiation exposure controls, including air sampling, barrier integrity, engineering controls,
and postings through a review of both internal and external exposure results. The
inspector followed up on two minor airborne radioactivity events.
During walk downs with a radiation survey meter, the inspectors independently verified if
ambient radiological conditions were consistent with licensee performed surveys, RWPs,
and pre-job briefings; observed the adequacy of radiological controls; and observed
controls for radioactive materials stored in the spent fuel pool. ED alarm set points and
worker stay times were evaluated against area radiation survey results for drywell and
refueling floor activities.
Risk-Significant High Radiation Area and Very High Radiation Area Controls: The
inspectors discussed the controls and procedures for locked-high radiation areas
(LHRAs) and very high radiation areas (VHRAs) with health physics supervisors and the
radiation protection manager. During plant walk downs, the inspectors verified the
posting/locking of LHRA/VHRA areas.
Radiation Worker Performance and Radiation Protection Technician Proficiency The
inspectors observed radiation worker performance through direct observation, via
remote camera monitoring, and via telemetry. These jobs were performed in high
radiation, airborne, and/or contaminated areas. The inspectors also observed health
physics technicians providing field coverage of jobs and providing remote coverage.
Problem Identification & Resolution: Licensee Corrective Action Program (CAP)
documents associated with radiation monitoring and exposure control were reviewed
and assessed. This included review of selected Problem Evaluation Reports (PERs)
related to radworker and health physics technician performance. The inspectors
evaluated the licensees ability to identify, characterize, prioritize, and resolve the
identified issues in accordance with procedure NPG-SPP-3.1, Corrective Action
Program, Rev. 2. The inspectors also evaluated the scope of the licensees internal
audit program and reviewed recent assessment results. Licensee CAP documents
reviewed are listed in Section 2RS1 of the Attachment.

b. Findings
.1 Failure to adequately secure radioactive shipping container contents for transport
Introduction: A self-revealing Green Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5,
Transportation of Licensed Material, was identified for the licensees failure to ensure
proper packaging of two DOT 7A Type A packages as required by 49 CFR 173.475(e),
Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 (Radioactive)
Materials.
Description: On March 22, 2010, the licensee shipped control rod drive mechanisms
(CRDMs) to GE Hitachi Nuclear (GEH) for refurbishment in six Department of
Transportation (DOT) approved Type A boxes. Each box contained four CRDMs. In a
letter dated September 17, 2010, GEH informed the licensee that their receipt inspection
of containers 1343-S and 966-S on April 23, 2010, identified that pig shield containment
lid restraint bars designed to secure the CRDMs and pig shields in place were not
installed and were laying loose in the bottom of the container. The licensee documented
the issue in PER 236118. Licensee investigation determined that the radwaste
packaging inspector failed to follow procedural requirements and verify that the CRDMs
were properly secured within the container to prevent movement during shipping. The
inspectors reviewed the Container Certification, container closure procedure for the
CRDM boxes, licensee radioactive material shipment procedures, and engineering
documents concerning the container meeting DOT 7A requirements. The inspectors
noted that although the container closure procedure did not specifically address internal
packaging and the restraint bars, the container certification states that All contents must
be securely positioned to prevent shifting during normal conditions of transport., and
that site procedural guidance requires verification that the contents of the package have
been secured and satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR 71.87, prior to shipment.
Analysis: The failure to properly secure, or adequately block or brace the material within
a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package to prevent movement during transport prior to
shipment was determined to be a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee
failed to follow established site procedures and applicable documents provided by the
package vendor for package inspection and verification to ensure materials are secured
within containers. The finding was more than minor because it is associated with the
Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone, Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation
attribute, involving transportation packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone
objective to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to
radioactive materials released into the public domain as a result of routine civilian
nuclear reactor operation. Specifically, the failure to correctly secure the package
contents to prevent movement could have resulted in damage or failure of the container
during transportation. The significance of the finding was evaluated using IMC 0612,
Appendix D, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The issue
was evaluated using the Public Radiation Safety flowchart because it involved
radioactive material control, specifically, transportation. The finding was determined to
be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being
Enclosure
30
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground
non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications.
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents,
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate package design
specifications into their transportation program to ensure that all internal restraining
devices are correctly installed to secure the CRDM in place to prevent damage to the
transport package. H.2(c)
Enforcement: 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of Licensed Material, required, in part, that
each licensee who transports licensed material outside the site of usage, as specified in
the NRC license, or where transport is on public highways, or who delivers licensed
material to a carrier for transport, shall comply with the applicable requirements of the
DOT regulations in 49 CFR Parts 107, 171 through 180, and 390 through 397,
appropriate to the mode of transport.
49 CFR 173.475(e), Quality Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7
(Radioactive) Materials, required, in part, that before each shipment of any Class 7
(radioactive) materials package, the offeror must ensure, by examination or appropriate
tests, that each special instruction for filling, closing, and preparation of the packaging
for shipment has been followed. Licensee procedure RWTP-100, Radioactive
Material/Waste Shipments, contains package inspection and verification requirements
to ensure materials are secured within containers.
Contrary to the above, on March 22, 2010, the licensee failed to comply with the
applicable requirements of DOT regulation 49 CFR 173.475(e) for transport of licensed
material. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow Container Certification guidance, in
that the CRDMs were not properly packaged and secured inside two CRDM shipping
containers as required by licensee procedure RWTP-100. Because this violation was of
very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensees CAP (SR 570902), this
violation is being treated as an NCV, in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC
Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-02; Failure to Properly Prepare
a DOT Type A Package for Transport)
.2 Failure to Implement DOT Type A Package Closure Requirements
Introduction: A self-revealing Green Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 71.5,
Transportation of Licensed Material, was identified for the licensees failure to properly
close a DOT 7A Type A packages as required by DOT 49 CFR 173.475(f) Quality
Control Requirements Prior To Each Shipment Of Class 7 (Radioactive) Materials.
Description: On September 7, 2011, the licensee shipped a DOT approved Type A
shipping container, containing an ISP surveillance capsule, to MP Machinery and
Testing, LLC (MPM) for analysis of the contents. In a letter dated September 9, 2011,
MPM informed the licensee that upon arrival at the MPM facility the closure bolts on the
shipping container were found to be undertorqued at 30 ft-lbs torque, not 390 ft-lbs
torque as specified in the DOT Package Certification provided by MPM. The licensee
Enclosure
31
documented the issue in PER 431446. Licensee investigation determined that the ISP
surveillance capsule shipping container closure bolts did not have the correct torque
applied due to inadequate procedure guidance, unfamiliarity of the workers with the task,
and a lack of procedure use and adherence. Preparation of the surveillance capsule for
shipment occurred over several months, the Technical Instruction was revised during the
period, and the container instructions provided by the vendor were not used during
loading activities. The inspectors reviewed the DOT Package Certification, container
loading and shipping instructions, Technical Instruction for obtaining and packaging the
Reactor Vessel Test Specimens (both revisions), and the work order used to remove
and package the ISP surveillance capsule for shipment. The inspectors noted that
although detailed instructions for loading and closure of the container were provided by
the vendor, the instructions and required container closure torque values were not
included, or referenced, in the Technical Instruction or the work package.
Analysis: The failure to properly close a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package was
determined to be a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow
established site procedures and applicable vendor documents for closing the package
resulting in inadequate torque of the shipping container closure bolts. The finding was
more than minor because it is associated with the Public Radiation Safety Cornerstone,
Plant Facilities/Equipment and Instrumentation attribute, involving transportation
packaging and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure adequate
protection of public health and safety from exposure to radioactive materials released
into the public domain as a result of routine civilian nuclear reactor operation.
Specifically, the failure to apply the correct torque to the package closure bolts could
have resulted in incomplete sealing of the container or failure of the cover bolts during
transportation. The significance of the finding was evaluated using IMC 0612, Appendix
D, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process. The issue was
evaluated using the Public Radiation Safety flowchart because it involved radioactive
material control, specifically, transportation. The finding was determined to be of very
low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve radiation limits being
exceeded, a package breach, a certificate of compliance issue, a low-level burial ground
non-conformance, or a failure to make emergency notifications
The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross cutting aspect of Documents,
Procedures and Component Labeling in the Resources component of the Human
Performance area because the licensee did not effectively incorporate the vendor
provided container loading and shipping instructions into their work package and
transportation program to ensure correct torque values were used to close the shipping
container. H.2(c)
Enforcement: 10 CFR 71.5, Transportation of Licensed Material, required, in part, that

the containment system through which the radioactive content might escape is properly
closed and sealed.
Contrary to the above, on September 7, 2011, the licensee failed to comply with the
applicable requirements of DOT regulation 49 CFR 173.475(f) for transport of licensed
material. Specifically, the licensee failed to properly close an opening in the containment
system of a Class 7 (radioactive) materials package. Because this violation was of very
low safety significance and it was entered into the licensees CAP (SR 571151), this
violation is being treated as an NCV, in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC
Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000259, 260, 296/2012003-03; Failure to Implement DOT
Type A Package Closure Requirements)

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems
.1 Review of items entered into the Corrective Action Program:
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems,
and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance
issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the
licensees CAP. This review was accomplished by reviewing daily PER and Service
Request (SR) reports, and periodically attending Corrective Action Review Board
(CARB) and PER Screening Committee (PSC) meetings.
.2 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues - Operations with a Potential for Draining the
Reactor Vessel (OPDRVs)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the NRCs EMG-11-03, Enforcement
Guidance Memorandum on Dispositioning Boiling Water Reactor Licensee
Noncompliance with Technical Specification Containment Requirements During
Operations with a Potential for Draining the Reactor Vessel (OPDRVs). The inspectors
focused on the changes made to licensee procedure 3-POI-200.5, Operations with
Potential for Draining the Reactor Vessel/Cavity and discussed OPDRVs with
Operations staff. The inspectors reviewed the Main Control Room (MCR) operating logs
to verify OPDRVs were identified by the MCR operating crew and appropriate action
taken were necessary. The inspectors also walked down portions of the alternate
reactor water level control make-up and let-down line line-ups to verify they were
established in accordance with the licensees procedures. Documents reviewed are
listed in the Attachment. This activity constituted one in-depth selected issue.
b. Assessment and Observations
No findings were identified.
.3 Semiannual Review to Identify Trends
a. Inspection Scope
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, the inspectors performed a review of the
licensees CAP implementation and associated documents to identify trends that could
indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors review included
the results from daily screening of individual PERs (see Section 4OA2.1 above),
licensee trend reports and trending efforts, and independent searches of the PER
database and WO history. The inspectors review nominally considered the six-month
period of January 2012 through June 2012, although some searches expanded beyond
Enclosure
36
these dates. Additionally, the inspectors review also included the Integrated Trend
Reports (ITR) from the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2012. The licensee
reports covered the period of October 1, 2011, to March 31, 2012. Furthermore, the
inspectors verified that adverse or negative trends identified in the licensees PERs,
periodic reports and trending efforts were entered into the CAP. Inspectors interviewed
the appropriate licensee staff and also reviewed procedures, NPG-SPP-02.8, Integrated
Trend Review and NPG-SPP-02.7, PER Trending.
The purpose of the licensees integrated trend reviews was to identify the top site and
departmental issues (gaps to excellence) requiring management attention. Other
objectives were to provide status of the top issues and their progress to resolution,
identify continuing issues, emerging trends and issues to be monitored, review progress
towards resolving past top issues, review issues identified by external organizations
such as the NRC, INPO, Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB), QA, etc., and determine
why they were not identified by line organizations. This activity constituted one
semiannual trend review inspection sample.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings were identified, but the inspectors identified a number of observations as
discussed below.
Inspectors observed licensee-identified issues and trends in both the first and second
quarter ITRs that were identical or similar in nature. Inspectors reviewed the repeat
issues to assess the licensees progress of corrective actions associated with the issues
and trends identified. Some of the more notable site/departmental issues were as
follows:
business function by the station. Improvement is needed with problem identification,
cause evaluations and timely completion of corrective actions. This issue was
documented in PERs 346645 and 471366.
- Human Performance/Standards: Human performance practices resulted in
consequential events, specifically: procedure use and adherence, procedure quality,
accountability, human performance fundamentals, and the observation program.
This issue was documented in PERs 410308 and 491985.
- Procedure Use and Adherence: The first quarter 2012 ITR included this in the
Human Performance area (Issue #2) and developed actions to drive rigorous use of
procedures throughout all organization. The second quarter 2012 ITR included this
with the Procedure/Work Order Quality/Procedure Use and Adherence area (Issue
- 2). This issue was documented in PERs 410308 and 491985.
The second quarter ITR contained fifteen fundamental problem statements that were
developed as a result of the 95003 supplemental inspection. The process is intended to
determine the root organizational and/or cultural causes of these issues. Corrective
actions were under development for these fifteen problem areas at the end of the
reporting period.
Enclosure
37
The inspectors conducted an independent review of the licensees CAP to identify
potential adverse trends. The inspectors identified a potential adverse trend with the
licensees control of transient combustible materials in plant areas. A review of PERs
from January 2012 to June 2012 revealed twelve PERs associated with transient and
excessive combustible materials in plant areas however, a PER that identified this as a
trend was not identified by the licensee staff. The inspectors discussed this issue with
the appropriate licensee staff and PER 577382 was initiated to document this as an
adverse trend.
4OA3 Event Follow-up
.1 Unit 3 Automatic Reactor Scram Following Refueling Outage
a. Inspection Scope
On May 22, 2012, while recovering from a refueling outage with control rod and main
turbine generator off-line testing in progress, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 19.5
percent power. Unit 3 scrammed due to a loss of offsite power when an inadvertent
actuation of 3A Unit Station Service Transformer (USST) differential relay 387SA
resulted from an incorrect relay setting. Inspectors promptly responded to the control
room and verified that the unit was stable in Mode 3 (Hot Shutdown), and confirmed that
all safety-related mitigating systems had operated properly. Inspectors evaluated safety
equipment and operator performance before and after the event by examining existing
plant parameters, strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, and
the critical parameter trend charts used for the post-trip report. Inspectors also
interviewed responsible on-shift operations personnel, examined the implementation of
the applicable annunciator response procedures and abnormal operating instructions,
including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram, and reviewed the written notification made in
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. Inspectors discussed the preliminary cause of the
incorrect relay setting with responsible Operations and Engineering personnel and
monitored Plant Oversight Review Committee (PORC) event review and restart
meetings. This review included only initial event follow-up.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Unit 3 Manual Reactor Scram Following Refueling Outage
a. Inspection Scope
On May 24, 2012, Unit 3 was manually scrammed from Mode 2 (less than 1% rated
power) when operators ranged down the Intermediate Range Monitor (IRM) 'H'
instrument, instead of up, resulting in half scram on Reactor Protection System (RPS) 'B'
trip system. The half scram was being reset after IRM 'H' was properly ranged. As the
operator adjusted the reset scram switch, a spike on IRM 'A' was received on the RPS
'A' trip system, resulting in a partial rod insertion. When the operator identified multiple
Enclosure
38
rods inserting, the actions of the Reactor Scram Procedure, 3-AOI-l00-1, were followed
and a manual scram was inserted. The inspectors evaluated safety equipment and
operator performance before and after the event by examining existing plant parameters,
strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, the alarm typewriter
Sequence of Events printout, and the critical parameter trend charts in the post-trip
report. The inspectors interviewed responsible on-shift Operations personnel, examined
the implementation of annunciator response and abnormal operating procedures,
(including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram) and reviewed the written notification made in
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. This review included only initial event follow up.
b. Findings
No findings were identified
.3 Unit 3 Automatic Reactor Scram and Forced Outage
a. Inspection Scope
On May 29, 2012, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 78 percent power due to a power
to load unbalance (i.e., main generator load reject) automatic trip of the main turbine
generator from an A-B phase trip of the main transformer differential relay 387T. The
licensee identified the cause of the differential relay trip to be a B phase current
transformer manufactured and installed with opposite polarity. Preliminarily, the licensee
revealed that factory acceptance and field testing failed to detect the manufacturing
defect of reverse polarity. Inspectors promptly responded to the control room and
verified that the unit was stable in Mode 3 (Hot Shutdown), and confirmed that all safety-
related mitigating systems had operated properly. Inspectors evaluated safety
equipment and operator performance before and after the event by examining existing
plant parameters, strip charts, plant computer historical data displays, operator logs, and
the critical parameter trend charts used for the post-trip report. Inspectors also
interviewed responsible on-shift operations personnel, examined the implementation of
the applicable annunciator response procedures and abnormal operating instructions,
including 3-AOI-100-1, Reactor Scram, and reviewed the written notification made in
accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. Inspectors discussed the preliminary cause of the failed
acceptance and installation testing with responsible Operations and Engineering
personnel. This review included only initial event follow-up.
Operators commenced restart of Unit 3 (i.e., entered Mode 2) on June 2 and achieved
full power on June 6, 2011. During this short forced outage the inspectors examined the
conduct of critical outage activities pursuant to technical specifications, applicable
procedures, and the licensees risk assessment and maintenance plans. Some of the
more significant outage activities monitored, examined and/or reviewed by the
inspectors were as follows:
- Plant Oversight Review Committee (PORC) event review and restart meetings.
- Reactor startup and power ascension activities per 3-GOI-100-1A, Unit Startup
- Reactor vessel and coolant heatup per 3-SR-3.4.9.1(1), Reactor Heatup and
Cooldown Rate Monitoring
Enclosure
39
- Outage risk assessment and management
- Control and management of forced outage and emergent work activities
Corrective Action Program
The inspectors reviewed PERs generated during the Unit 3 forced outage and attended
management review committee meetings to verify that initiation thresholds, priorities,
mode holds, and significance levels were assigned as required.

.4 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000296/2011-003-00, Automatic Reactor
Scram Due to a Main Turbine Generator Load Reject.
a. Inspection Scope
On September 28, 2011, Unit 3 automatically scrammed from 100 percent power due to
a power to load unbalance (i.e., main generator load reject) automatic trip of the main
turbine generator (MTG) caused by a broken debris screen. The initial follow-up of this
event by the inspectors was documented in Section 4OA3.10 of IR 05000296/2011004.
The inspectors reviewed the applicable LER that was issued on November 28, 2011,
and its associated PER 440539, which included the root cause analysis (RCA) and
corrective actions. The licensee concluded that the direct cause of the Unit 3 turbine trip
and scram was the isolated-phase bus C debris screen failure.
b. Findings
No findings were identified
.5 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000259,296 /2011-009-02, As-Found
Undervoltage Trip for the Reactor Protection System 1A1 Relay that Did Not Meet
Acceptance Criteria During Several Surveillances
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed Revision 2 of LER 05000259/2011-009 dated April 25, 2012,
PER 486780, and the associated operability determination, and corrective action plans.
This revised LER was submitted to provide the results of the licensees completed
investigation and evaluation of a second Reactor Protection System (RPS) relay that did
not meet its acceptance criteria during previous surveillance testing for the same reason.
The original LER 05000259/2011-009-00 dated December 5, 2011, the revised LER
05000259/2011-009-01 dated January 31, 2012, applicable PERs 413140 and 442914,
including root cause analysis, operability determination and corrective action plans, were
reviewed by the inspectors and documented in Sections 4OA3.1 and 4OA7 of NRC IR
Enclosure
40
05000259/2012002. As a result of this prior review, the licensee had identified one
violation of NRC requirements associated with Unit 1 RPS 1A1 relay.
On January 6, 2012, while performing an operability determination for the Unit 3 reactor
protection system (RPS) 3C1 relay undervoltage trips, the licensee determined that the
as-found undervoltage trip setpoint for the Unit 3 relay was less than the required
acceptance criteria during several technical specification surveillances. Seven of the
last thirteen surveillance test results were below the technical specification acceptance
criteria. Therefore, based on performance history, the RPS 3C1 relay was determined to
be inoperable from June 9, 2006, to February 2, 2012, when the relay was replaced.
The licensee determined the previous root cause and corrective actions were applicable
in that the surveillance test program did not require past operability reviews when out of
calibration technical specification conditions were corrected during surveillances.
The inspectors reviewed the second LER revision and verified that the supplemental
information provided in the LER was complete and accurate and that the information
was not of a significant nature to warrant any change to the original LER finding.
This licensee identified violation constitutes an additional example as documented in
NRC IR 05000259/2012002 and is not an individual non-cited violation. Further
corrective actions for this additional example are expected to be taken in conjunction
with corrective actions for the previous violation.
b. Findings
One finding for the original and Revision 1 of the LER was previously identified in
Section 4OA7 of NRC IR 05000259/2012002. No additional findings were identified.
The revised LER is considered closed.
.6 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000296/2012-001-00, Annunciator Panel
Power Supply Fire in Unit 3 Control Room
a. Inspection Scope
On January 26, 2012, Unit 3 main control room operators smelled smoke and observed
a flame coming from the bottom of an annunciator panel 3-XA-55-5A power supply. Fire
Operations personnel arrived on the scene within five minutes. The affected circuit
breaker was opened and fire extinguished within ten minutes. Operations personnel
increased plant monitoring to compensate for indications that lost their alarming
functions when the circuit breaker was opened. The fire damage was limited to the
failed annunciator power supply and the power supply directly above it. The inspectors
reviewed the details surrounding this event, interviewed operations and engineering
personnel involved with this issue and reviewed the licensees apparent cause
determination report. This was captured in the licensees corrective action program as
problem event report (PER) 496592. This LER is closed.
Enclosure
41
b. Findings
Introduction: A self-revealing Green finding (FIN) was identified for the licensees failure
to perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room (MCR) annunciator
power supplies. As a result, a power supply failed which led to a fire in annunciator
panel 3-XA-55-5A in the Unit 3 MCR.
Description: On January 26, 2012, Unit 3 main control room operators smelled smoke
and observed a flame coming from the bottom of an annunciator panel power supply.
Within ten minutes, the Fire Brigade responded to the MCR and the circuit breaker was
opened for the affected power supply which extinguished the fire. Damage was confined
to two power supplies in annunciator panel 3-XA-55-5A. The damaged power supplies
were replaced on January 27, 2012 in accordance with Work Order (WO) 113155456.
Corrective action document PER 496592 identified the direct cause of the annunciator
power supply failure as an overcurrent condition caused by a failed electrolytic capacitor.
This PER referenced EPRI recommendations to change out components with electrolytic
capacitors on a time based frequency. TVAs apparent cause concluded the power
supply (capacitor), installed for thirty four (34) years, experienced an age related failure
due to a lack of preventive maintenance.
Age-related failures of electrolytic capacitors have been documented in the industry.
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) document, TR-112175, Capacitor Application
and Maintenance Guide, dated August 1999, stated that capacitor change outs are
performed between 7 and 15 years depending on vendor recommendations and plant
operating experience. Another EPRI document, Power Supply Maintenance and
Application Guide (1003096), dated December 2001, stated that many of the power
supplies that failed had been in service greater than 15 years on average. Since 2008
three PERs have been entered in TVAs CAP that document similar failures of these
annunciator power supplies on both Unit 2 and 3 main control room panels. PER
391479 was initiated in June 2011 to evaluate the equipment reliability classification of
these power supplies. Corrective actions to evaluate the annunciator power supply
preventive maintenance strategy were in progress when the fire occurred.
These power supplies were classified as Quality-Related, Non-Critical, Low Duty-Cycle,
Mild Service Condition in accordance with licensee procedure NPG-SPP-09.18.2,
Equipment Reliability Classification. Licensee procedure TVA-NQA-PLN89-A, Nuclear
Quality Assurance Plan stated that the nuclear maintenance program including
corrective and preventive maintenance shall ensure that quality-related structures,
systems and components are maintained at a level sufficient to perform their intended
functions.
Analysis: The failure to perform preventive maintenance on the Unit 3 annunciator
power supplies prior to their age related failure was a performance deficiency.
Specifically, TVA procedure TVA-NQA-PLN89-A, Nuclear Quality Assurance Plan stated
that the nuclear maintenance program including corrective and preventive maintenance
shall ensure that quality-related structures, systems and components are maintained at
a level sufficient to perform their intended functions. These power supplies were
classified as Quality-Related according to TVA procedure NPG-SPP-09.18.2, Equipment
Enclosure
42
Reliability Classification. As a result of the performance deficiency, a Unit 3 MCR
annunciator power supply was left in service for 34 years, failed due to an aged
electrolytic capacitor and resulted in an over-current related fire. The performance
deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was considered sufficiently
similar to example 4.f of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0612, Appendix E, for an
issue that resulted in a fire hazard in a safety-related area of the plant. The finding was
associated with the Initiating Events Cornerstone and initially characterized according to
IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP), Attachment 4, Phase 1 - Initial
Screening and Characterization of Findings. The results of this analysis required a
phase 3 evaluation in accordance with IMC 0609 because the finding increased the
likelihood of and actually caused a fire in the Unit 3 MCR. The regional Senior Reactor
Analyst performed a Phase 3 analysis for the issue. Pictures were provided to an NRC
contractor who provides expertise in fire damage for the agency. It was determined that
the configuration of the fire would not likely result in damage to anything of significance
because the metal box that the annunciators power supplies are located in, would
prevent propagation of the fire beyond the box. It is also unlikely that enough heat or
smoke could be created to require control room evacuation, which would impact the
human actions that would be performed to shut down the plant. Without an impact to
additional plant equipment, or a major impact on human action failure rates, the finding
was determined to be Green. The cause of this finding was related to the cross cutting
aspect of Problem Identification in the Corrective Action Program component of the
Problem Identification and Resolution area, because the licensee was aware of three
previous failures of these power supplies in July 2009 and should have recognized that
the electrolytic capacitors, installed beyond their recommended service life, required
replacement prior to failure P.1(a).
Enforcement: Enforcement action does not apply because the performance deficiency
did not involve a violation of regulatory requirements since the main control room
annunciator power supplies were not safety-related. Because the finding does not
involve a violation, was entered into the licensees corrective action program as PER
496592, and has very low safety significance, it is identified as FIN 05000296/2012003-
04, Failure to Perform Preventive Maintenance on the Unit 3 Main Control Room
Annunciator Power Supplies.

activities were properly controlled, and subsequently returned to the licensee or
disposed of appropriately.
4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations
The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by the
licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which met the criteria of the NRC
Enforcement Policy, for being dispositioned as a Non-Cited Violation:
- A violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a was identified by the licensee for the
failure to establish adequate work instructions to ensure proper installation of the gap
setting between the actuator stem and valve stem of Unit 1 HPCI, (High Pressure
Coolant Injection), turbine stop valve, 1-FCV-073-0018. On April 19, 2012, during
the performance of a quarterly surveillance test the turbine stop valve, 1-FCV-073-
0018, failed to close upon repeated demands. A Phase 3 analysis determined the
significance of the finding was very low safety significance (Green) The regional
Senior Reactor Analyst performed a Phase 3 SDP analysis on the finding. The risk
was dominated by the unavailability of the HPCI during the repair time after
discovery of the Stop Valve issue. The finding was determined to be GREEN in the
SDP, primarily due to the short period of time it was fully non-functional. The
licensee initiated PER 539040 to enter the issue into their corrective action program.
