The inspectors selected the six operability determinations or functionality evaluations listed below for review based on the risk-significance of the associated components and systems. The inspectors reviewed the technical adequacy of the determinations to ensure that technical specification operability was properly justified and the components or systems remained capable of performing their design functions. To verify whether components or systems were operable, the inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the technical specification and updated final safety analysis report to the licensee's evaluations. Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed a sample of corrective action documents to verify the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with operability evaluations.

The inspectors determined that this issue was a minor violation because it was similar to example 2.g of IMC 0612 Appendix E dated August 11, 2009 in that operation of the RCS under vacuum conditions did not cause an adverse safety consequence. The licensee entered this into the corrective action program as CR 775288. Corrective actions are in progress to revise the PTLR curves to allow for operation of the RCS at pressure below zero psig.

The "1B" EDG output breaker (DG08) is a Cutler Hammer 4160V breaker that actuates a mechanism operated cell (MOC) switch. This MOC switch actuates the B1G sequencer that loads ESF equipment in a predetermined sequence and prevents diesel overload during design based accidents. The licensee determined that the MOC switch inside the "1B" EDG DG08 breaker cubicle failed to operate when the breaker closed. The licensee immediately replaced the MOC switch in breaker DG08, as well as the breaker, and quarantined both for further evaluation. During extent of condition investigations, the licensee identified two additional failed MOC switches associated with the "2D" and "1E" service water pump 4160V breakers. The licensee sent these three failed MOC switches to an offsite vendor for independent destructive testing and failure analysis.

: (2) channels per steam line and is applicable in Mode 1 and Modes 2 and 3, except when one main steam isolation valve is closed in each steam line.
: (2) channels per steam line and is applicable in Mode 1 and Modes 2 and 3, except when one main steam isolation valve is closed in each steam line.


When one channel is inoperable, Condition D required placing the inoperable channel in trip within 72 hours. Contrary to the above between October 25, 2013, and April 2, 2014, the "1B" steam generator channel III steam flow instrument (FT-484) was found to have a trip setpoint above the TS required value of 110.3 percent.
When one channel is inoperable, Condition D required placing the inoperable channel in trip within 72 hours. Contrary to the above between October 25, 2013, and April 2, 2014, the 1B steam generator channel III steam flow instrument (FT-484) was found to have a trip setpoint above the TS required value of 110.3 percent.
 
Action was not taken to either restore the flow transmitter to operable status or place the channel in trip within 72 hours until operations staff was made aware of the issue on April 2, 2014. Subsequently, FT-484 was recalibrated to within the TS allowable value and placed back in service on April 5, 2014. This issue was entered in the licensee's corrective action program as CR 795798. Additionally, between May 8, 2013 and April 8, 2014, the "2C" steam generator channel III steam flow instrument (FT-494) was found to have a trip setpoint above the TS required value of 110.3 percent. Action was not taken to either restore the flow transmitter to operable status or place the channel in trip within 72 hours until operations staff was made aware of the issue on April 8, 2014. Subsequently, FT-494 was recalibrated to within the TS allowable value and placed back in service on April 9, 2014. This issue was entered in the licensee's corrective action program as CR 798185. The finding screened to Green, very low safety significance, in accordance with IMC 0609, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power," Exhibit 2, because it did not represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its TS allowed outage time. Redundant instruments were available to actuate the main steam isolation function at the required setpoint. This violation is associated with LER
 
05000348/364/2014-003-00.
* Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, "Procedures," required that written procedures, specified in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978, be established, implemented, and maintained. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 9a, stated that maintenance activities that can affect the performance of safety related equipment should be performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to the above, since March 2002, station personnel failed to implement preventive maintenance procedure FNP-0-EMP-1313.12, "Maintenance of Siemens-Allis 4.16kv Metal-Clad Switchgear MOC Switch" on safety related 4160V MOC switches. As a result of not performing this procedure, safety-related MOC switches were not properly lubricated and sequencer "B1G" did not actuate during required surveillance testing. This prevented "1B" EDG from loading during the performance of FNP-1-STP-40.0B, "Safety Injection With Loss of Off-Site Power Test - "B" Train" on October 4, 2013.


The licensee replaced the "1B" EDG output breaker and its associated MOC switch.

risk evaluation was performed, in accordance with NRC IMC 0609 Appendix A, by a regional senior reactor analyst using both the licensee full scope probabilistic risk assessment and fire model and the NRC SPAR model. A one year exposure period was assumed. The dominant Unit 1 internal risk sequence was a single unit loss of offsite power (LOOP) with a common cause MOC switch failure and failure of the operator to load the sequencer leading to station blackout (SBO) and an unmitigated reactor coolant pump seal LOCA. The dominant Unit 2 internal risk sequence was a single unit LOOP with "2B" EDG failure to run and 1/2AEDG failed due to MOC switch failure and failure to load the sequencer leading to SBO and an unmitigated RCP seal LOCA. The risk was mitigated by the recovery potential and the remaining mitigation equipment. The change in risk due to the performance deficiency was an increase in core damage frequency for both units of less than 1E-6 per year a Green finding of very low safety significance.

4OA3 Follow-up of Events

.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000348/364/2014-003-00, Scaling Errors Result in

Inoperable Steam Flow Channels for Durations Longer Than Allowed by Technical Specifications

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed this licensee event report (LER), the root cause determination report (CAR 209957) and discussed the issue with licensee staff. On April 2, 2014, with Unit 1 operating in Mode 1 at 100 percent power, engineering personnel identified that Unit 1 procedures for calibration of steam flow channels contained incorrect scaling data due to the transmitter span information not being updated from the previous operating cycle. As a result of the incorrect scaling data, steam flow channel Q1C22FT0484, 1B steam generator channel III steam flow instrument, was outside of its allowed technical specification (TS) tolerance. On April 8, 2014, during continued extent of condition reviews, Unit 2 steam flow channel Q2C22FT0494, 2C steam generator channel III steam flow instrument, was found to be outside of its allowed TS tolerance. These steam flow instruments were declared inoperable and the required actions of the TS were performed. The calibration procedures were updated with the correct scaling data, and the Unit 1 and Unit 2 steam flow transmitters were re-calibrated and returned to service on April 5, 2014, and April 9, 2014, respectively. Licensee Event Report 05000348/364/2014-003-00 is closed.

b. Findings

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

.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000364/2014-001-00, Inoperable B Train Solid

State Protection System Results in Technical Specification Required Shutdown

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed this LER, the associated root cause report (CAR 208955) and discussed the issue with licensee staff. On January 11, 2014, Unit 2 completed a shutdown to comply with the required action statements of TS 3.3.1 (Reactor Trip System Instrumentation) and 3.3.2 (Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System) due to logic testing failures encountered during performance of periodic logic surveillance testing on the B Train of the solid state protective system (SSPS). The licensee identified the logic testing failures were caused by foreign material that resulted in an intermittent short between two logic card connector pins. Following removal of the foreign material from the SSPS cabinet and successful logic test of the B Train SSPS that restored operability on January 13, 2014, a plant startup commenced on January 14, 2014. Licensee Event Report 05000364/2014-001-00 is closed.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000348/364/2014-001-00, Failure to Comply With

Technical Specification 3.4.3 During Reactor Coolant System Vacuum Refill

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed this LER, an evaluation from Westinghouse and discussed the issue with licensee staff. On February 18, 2014, the licensee determined that both units were not in compliance with TS 3.4.3, Reactor Coolant System (RCS) Pressure and Temperature (P/T) Limits, during previous refueling outages on each unit. From October 1995 through April 2012, there have been twenty three

(23) refueling outages where the RCS was placed under a vacuum to perform vacuum refill operations. The licensee determined that the cause for not entering the required action statements for TS 3.4.3 was failure of the licensee to recognize that a negative pressure (vacuum) is not allowed by the TS. The licensee determined that the stress margins of the reactor pressure vessel and related components were not challenged during the vacuum refill operations. Corrective actions are in progress to revise the P/T limit curve to encompass RCS vacuum conditions. Licensee Event Report 05000348/364/2014-001-00 is closed.

b. Findings

A minor violation of TS 3.4.3 was identified for Units 1 and 2 for failure to recognize that a negative RCS pressure is not allowed by TS. TS 3.4.3, RCS Pressure and Temperature (P/T) Limits, required that RCS pressure, RCS temperature, and RCS heat-up and cooldown rates shall be maintained within the limits specified in the pressure temperature limits report (PTLR) and is applicable at all times. The PTLR curves associated with Units 1 and 2 required RCS pressure to be maintained greater than or equal to zero

(0) psig. Contrary to those requirements, from October 1995 through April 2012, there have been twelve refueling outages conducted on Unit 1 and eleven on Unit 2 during which the RCS pressure was less than zero
(0) psig during vacuum refill operations. The inspectors determined that this issue was a minor violation because it was similar to example 2.g of IMC 0612 Appendix E dated August 11, 2009 in that operation of the RCS under vacuum conditions did not cause an adverse safety consequence. The licensee entered this into the corrective action program as CR 775288. Corrective actions are in progress to revise the PTLR curves to allow for operation of the RCS at pressure below zero psig. This failure to comply with TS 3.4.3 constitutes a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs Enforcement Policy.

4OA5 Other Activities

.1 Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (60855.1)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a walkdown of the onsite independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) and monitored the activities associated with the dry fuel storage campaign completed during the second quarter of 2014. The inspectors reviewed records to verify that the licensee recorded and maintained the location of each fuel assembly placed in the ISFSI. The inspectors also reviewed surveillance records to verify that daily surveillance requirements were performed as required by technical specifications. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 (Closed) Apparent Violation 05000348/05000364/2014002-02; Failure to Implement

Preventive Maintenance on 4160V Breaker Mechanism Operated Cell Switches

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the root cause determination report (CAR 208298) and discussed the issue with licensee staff. On October 4, 2013, during performance of a TS required surveillance per licensee procedure FNP-1-STP-40.0B, Safety Injection with Loss of Offsite Power Test - B Train, the B1G sequencer did not actuate as expected.

The 1B EDG output breaker (DG08) is a Cutler Hammer 4160V breaker that actuates a mechanism operated cell (MOC) switch. This MOC switch actuates the B1G sequencer that loads ESF equipment in a predetermined sequence and prevents diesel overload during design based accidents. The licensee determined that the MOC switch inside the 1B EDG DG08 breaker cubicle failed to operate when the breaker closed. The licensee immediately replaced the MOC switch in breaker DG08, as well as the breaker, and quarantined both for further evaluation. During extent of condition investigations, the licensee identified two additional failed MOC switches associated with the 2D and 1E service water pump 4160V breakers. The licensee sent these three failed MOC switches to an offsite vendor for independent destructive testing and failure analysis.

The licensees root cause analysis, which incorporated data and findings from the vendors destructive testing report, concluded that the lack of lubrication between the MOC switch bushings and the housing was the direct cause of the MOC switch failure.

Apparent Violation (AV) 05000348/05000364/2014002-02 is closed.

b. Findings

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

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit

On July 15, 2014, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. J.J.

Hutto and other members of the licensees staff. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations

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

  • Technical Specification 3.3.2, Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) Instrumentation, required the ESFAS instrumentation for each function in Table 3.3.2-1 to be operable. Table 3.3.2-1, Function 4.e., Steam Line Isolation, required two
(2) channels per steam line and is applicable in Mode 1 and Modes 2 and 3, except when one main steam isolation valve is closed in each steam line.

When one channel is inoperable, Condition D required placing the inoperable channel in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Contrary to the above between October 25, 2013, and April 2, 2014, the 1B steam generator channel III steam flow instrument (FT-484) was found to have a trip setpoint above the TS required value of 110.3 percent.

Action was not taken to either restore the flow transmitter to operable status or place the channel in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> until operations staff was made aware of the issue on April 2, 2014. Subsequently, FT-484 was recalibrated to within the TS allowable value and placed back in service on April 5, 2014. This issue was entered in the licensees corrective action program as CR 795798. Additionally, between May 8, 2013 and April 8, 2014, the 2C steam generator channel III steam flow instrument (FT-494) was found to have a trip setpoint above the TS required value of 110.3 percent. Action was not taken to either restore the flow transmitter to operable status or place the channel in trip within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> until operations staff was made aware of the issue on April 8, 2014. Subsequently, FT-494 was recalibrated to within the TS allowable value and placed back in service on April 9, 2014. This issue was entered in the licensees corrective action program as CR 798185. The finding screened to Green, very low safety significance, in accordance with IMC 0609, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power, Exhibit 2, because it did not represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its TS allowed outage time. Redundant instruments were available to actuate the main steam isolation function at the required setpoint. This violation is associated with LER 05000348/364/2014-003-00.

  • Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, required that written procedures, specified in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978, be established, implemented, and maintained. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 9a, stated that maintenance activities that can affect the performance of safety related equipment should be performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to the above, since March 2002, station personnel failed to implement preventive maintenance procedure FNP-0-EMP-1313.12, Maintenance of Siemens-Allis 4.16kv Metal-Clad Switchgear MOC Switch on safety related 4160V MOC switches. As a result of not performing this procedure, safety-related MOC switches were not properly lubricated and sequencer B1G did not actuate during required surveillance testing. This prevented 1B EDG from loading during the performance of FNP-1-STP-40.0B, Safety Injection With Loss of Off-Site Power Test - B Train on October 4, 2013.

The licensee replaced the 1B EDG output breaker and its associated MOC switch.

This issue was placed in the licensees corrective action program as CR 713134.

The finding was screened in accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC)0609 Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings and was determined to affect the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone as Short Term and Long Term Decay Heat Removal was affected and a detailed risk evaluation was required. A detailed risk evaluation was performed, in accordance with NRC IMC 0609 Appendix A, by a regional senior reactor analyst using both the licensee full scope probabilistic risk assessment and fire model and the NRC SPAR model. A one year exposure period was assumed. The dominant Unit 1 internal risk sequence was a single unit loss of offsite power (LOOP) with a common cause MOC switch failure and failure of the operator to load the sequencer leading to station blackout (SBO) and an unmitigated reactor coolant pump seal LOCA. The dominant Unit 2 internal risk sequence was a single unit LOOP with 2B EDG failure to run and 1/2AEDG failed due to MOC switch failure and failure to load the sequencer leading to SBO and an unmitigated RCP seal LOCA. The risk was mitigated by the recovery potential and the remaining mitigation equipment. The change in risk due to the performance deficiency was an increase in core damage frequency for both units of less than 1E-6 per year a Green finding of very low safety significance. This violation is associated with AV 05000348/364/2014-002-02.
