                07200016/2006001
Dear Mr. Christian:
On March 31, 2006, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an
inspection at your North Anna Power Station, Units 1 and 2, and the North Anna Independent
Spent Fuel Storage Installation. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the
inspection results, which were discussed on April 11, 2006 with Mr. Jack Davis and other
members of your staff.
The inspections examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to safety and
compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your
licenses. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and
interviewed personnel.
Based upon the results of this inspection, one self-revealing finding and one NRC-identified
finding of very low safety significance (Green) were identified. The findings were determined to
involve a violation of NRC requirements. However, because of the very low safety significance
and because they were entered into your corrective action program, the findings are treated as
non-cited violations (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy. In
addition, one licensee- identified violation, which was determined to be of very low safety
significance, is listed in Section 4OA7 of this report. If you contest any non-cited violation in this
report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with
the basis for your denial, to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN:
Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional
Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the North
Anna Power Station.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter, its
enclosure, and your response, if any, will be available electronically for public inspection in the
NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of

                                      SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000338/2006-002, IR 05000339/2006-002, IR07200016/2006-001; 01/01/2006 -
03/31/2006; North Anna Power Station Units 1 & 2, and North Anna Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation. Routine Integrated Resident and Regional Inspector Report. Event
Followup.
The report covered a three-month period of inspection by the resident inspectors and
announced inspections by a senior operations examiner, an operations engineer, a senior
health physicist, two health physicists, a senior reactor inspector, and two reactor inspectors
from the region. One self-revealing finding and one NRC-identified finding were identified. The
findings were determined to be non-cited violations (NCV). The significance of most findings is
indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC)
0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP). 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 3, dated July 2000.
A.      NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
        Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
        Green. An NRC-identified non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion III was
        identified for failure to translate design requirements into procedures. Specifically, the
        licensee failed to properly translate the Technical Specification (TS) Operable-
        Operability definition into procedures which established the time the environmental
        hazard barriers between the turbine building and either the main control room or the
        emergency switchgear room were allowed to be inoperable during maintenance. This
        issue is documented in the licensees corrective action program as Plant Issues N-
        2005-1080 and N-2005-2236.
        This issue is more than minor because it could become a more significant condition, in
        that the unit could continue to operate at full power with main control room and
        emergency switchgear equipment exposed to potentially harsh environmental conditions
        (e.g. steam from a high energy line break in the turbine building) for a period of time
        greater than that allowed by TS. However, the time period that the pressure boundary
        door 2-BLD-STR-S54 was inoperable on March 16, 2005 did not result in a violation of
        TS 3.0.3 and thus no performance deficiency existed for that specific event. After
        management review, the issue was assigned a significance of Green because the
        inoperability period was limited to a maximum of 24 hours by other TS. (Section 1R13)
        Green. A self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III was
        identified for inadequate design control resulting in a flood potential for the Units 1 and 2
        safeguards instrument rack rooms. On July 9, 2005, back flush of control room chiller
        service water strainers 2-HV-S-1A and 1B as directed by engineering transmittal ET
        N-05-0034, Operability of 2-HV-P-22C, Service Water Pump for 2-HV-E-4C, was
        performed in the Unit 2 air conditioning chiller room (ACCR). Following this work
        activity, the licensee observed water around a floor drain in the adjacent air conditioning
        fan rooms (ACFR) and initiated Plant Issue N-2005-2565 to evaluate the abnormal
                                                                                          Enclosure
 
  condition. Subsequently, the licensee determined that back-flow preventers were not
  installed in the floor drains on the ACFRs on both units. The back-flow preventers are
  necessary to prevent leakage in the ACCR from bypassing the flood wall protecting the
  ACFR and adjoining safeguards instrument rack room from flooding.
  The inspectors determined that the finding had a credible impact on safety based on the
  potential for flooding to impact the instrument rack room which contains both trains of
  Solid State Protection System cabinets used for engineered safeguards. The finding, if
  left uncorrected, would result in a more significant safety concern and is consequently
  more than minor. A Phase III evaluation was performed for the SDP due to the loss or
  degradation of equipment specifically designed to mitigate a flooding event and the
  impact on two trains of a safety system. This evaluation concluded that the
  performance deficiency was of very low safety significance (Green) based on the
  existence of high level alarms for the associated sumps and the response time allowed
  for an operator to isolate the leak (approximately 40 minutes). The inspectors also
  concluded that this finding had aspects relating to the cross-cutting area of problem
  identification and resolution. (Section 4OA5)
B. Licensee-Identified Violation
  One violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been
  reviewed by the inspectors. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have
  been entered into the licensees corrective action program. This violation and corrective
  action tracking numbers are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

Summary of Plant Status
Unit 1 and Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. Units 1 and 2 remained at
or near 100 percent power for the entire reporting period with the following exceptions. Unit 1
experienced a forced outage February 13 - 17, 2006, due to tube leaks in the 6B and 4B
feedwater heaters. Unit 1 entered a refueling outage on March 12, 2006, which continued
throughout the remainder of the inspection period.
1.      REACTOR SAFETY
        Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity
1R04 Equipment Alignment
  a.  Inspection Scope
        The inspectors conducted three equipment alignment partial walkdowns to evaluate the
        operability of selected redundant trains or backup systems, listed below, with the other
        train or system inoperable or out of service. The inspectors reviewed the functional
        system descriptions, Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), system operating
        procedures, and Technical Specifications (TS) to determine correct system lineups for
        the current plant conditions. The inspectors performed walkdowns of selected portions
        of the systems to verify that critical components were properly aligned and to identify
        any discrepancies which could affect operability of the redundant train or backup
        system.
        *      Unit 2 train B Low Head Safety Injection (LHSI) equipment during planned
                maintenance on the 2-SI-P-1A;
        *      Units 1 and 2 Switchyard, during planned maintenance on the #1 and #3
                busses; and,
        *      Unit 1 train A LHSI, while 1-SI-P-1B was inoperable for motor operated valve
                preventative maintenance.
  b.  Findings
        No findings of significance were identified.
1R05 Fire Protection
  a.  Inspection Scope
        The inspectors conducted tours of the eleven areas listed below and important to
        reactor safety to verify the licensees implementation of fire protection requirements as
        described in Virginia Power Administrative Procedure (VPAP)-2401, Fire Protection
        Program.
                                                                                        Enclosure
 
                                                6
    The inspectors evaluated, as appropriate, conditions related to: (1) licensee control of
    transient combustibles and ignition sources; (2) the material condition, operational
    status, and operational lineup of fire protection systems, equipment, and features; and
    (3) the fire barriers used to prevent fire damage or fire propagation. Other documents
    reviewed are listed in the Attachment.
    *      Normal Switchgear Room Unit 1 (fire zone 5-1 / NSR-1);
    *      Emergency Switchgear Room Unit 1 (fire zone 6-1a / ESR-1);
    *      Emergency Switchgear Room Unit 2 (fire zone 6-2a / ESR-2);

    *      Emergency Diesel Generator 1H Unit 1 (fire zone 9A-1a / EDG-1H);
    *      Motor-Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump Room Unit 1 (fire zone 14B-1a /
            MDAFW-1);
    *      Battery Room 1 - I Unit 1 (fire zone 7A-1 / BR1-I);
    *      Battery Room 1 - II Unit 1 (fire zone 7B-1 / BR1-II);
    *      Battery Room 1 - III Unit 1 (fire zone 7C-1 / BR1-III);
    *      Battery Room 1 - IV Unit 1 (fire zone 7D - 1/ BR1-IV); and
    *      Containment Unit 1 (fire zone 1-1a / RC-1).
  b. Findings
    No findings of significance were identified.
1R07 Heat Sink Performance
  a. Inspection Scope
    The inspectors reviewed inspection records, test results, maintenance work orders, and
    other documentation to ensure that heat exchanger (Hx) deficiencies that could mask or
    degrade performance were identified and corrected. The test procedures and records
    were also reviewed to verify that these were consistent with Generic Letter 89-13
    licensee commitments, and Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Heat Exchanger
    Performance Monitoring Guidelines. The risk significant Hx reviewed was the Unit 1 B
    Component Cooling (CC) Heat Exchanger, which was tagged out for inspection and
    cleaning. The inspectors reviewed CC Hx inspection and cleaning procedures,
    completed work orders, design specification sheets, and tube plugging margins to verify
    that test results were consistent with design acceptance criteria, inspection methods and
    performance of the Hx under the current maintenance frequency were adequate, and to
    verify minimum flow requirements and Hx design bases were being maintained.
    Additionally, the inspectors reviewed Plant Issue N-2006-0257, regarding CC Hx B
    elevated differential pressure, for potential common cause problems and other issues
    which could affect system performance to confirm that the licensee was entering
    problems into the corrective action program and initiating appropriate corrective actions.
                                                                                    Enclosure
 
                                              7
      The inspectors reviewed Hx test condition reports regarding foreign material found
      during recent and past CC Hx inspections. In addition, the inspectors conducted a walk
      down of all four CC Hxs and the related service water piping to assess general material
      condition and to identify any degraded conditions.
  b. Findings
      No findings of significance were identified.
1R08 Inservice Inspection (ISI) Activities
.1  Piping Systems ISI
  a. Inspection Scope
      On March 13-17, 2006, the inspectors reviewed the implementation of the licensees ISI
      program for monitoring degradation of the reactor coolant system boundary and the risk
      significant piping system boundaries for Unit 1. The inspectors selected a sample of
      American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,
      Section XI required examinations and a sample of risk-informed ISI Program
      examinations.
      The inspectors conducted an on-site review of nondestructive examination (NDE)
      activities to evaluate compliance with TS, ASME Section XI and ASME Section V
      requirements, 1995 Edition through 1996 Addenda, and to verify that indications and
      defects (if present) were appropriately evaluated and dispositioned in accordance with
      the requirements of ASME Section XI, IWB-3000 or IWC-3000 acceptance standards.
      Specifically, the inspectors observed the following examinations:
      Ultrasonic Testing
              *      31"-RC-2-2501R-Q1, Weld #6, Reactor Coolant Elbow to Pipe on A
                      Steam Generator Crossover Leg;
              *      16"-WFPD-23-601C-Q2, Weld #16A, Main Feedwater to B Steam

.2  Boric Acid Corrosion Control ISI
  a. Inspection Scope
    On March 13-17, 2006, the inspectors reviewed the licensees Boric Acid Corrosion
    Control Program (BACCP) to ensure compliance with commitments made in response
    to NRC Generic Letter 88-05 Boric Acid Corrosion of Carbon Steel Reactor Pressure
    Boundary and Bulletin 2002-01 Reactor Pressure Vessel Head Degradation and
    Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary Integrity.
    The inspectors conducted an on-site record review and an independent walk-down of
    the reactor building to evaluate compliance with licensee BACCP requirements and 10
    CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requirements. In particular,
    the inspectors verified that licensee visual examinations focused on locations where
    boric acid leaks can cause degradation of safety significant components and that
    degraded or non-conforming conditions were properly identified in the licensees
    corrective action system.
    The inspectors reviewed the licensees program implementation procedures and a
    sample of plant issue reports (corrective action documents) to ensure that leaks were
    being identified and addressed at an appropriate threshold. A sample review of
    engineering evaluations was also completed for boric acid deposits found on reactor
    coolant system piping and other ASME Code Class components to verify that the
    minimum design code required section thickness had been maintained for any affected
    component(s). The inspectors also reviewed the licensees corrective actions
    implemented in response to a Green NCV identified during the previous outage on Unit
    2. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed corrective actions associated with training on
    boric acid identification and reporting and actions associated with the implementation of
    boric acid walkdown procedures.
  b. Findings
    No findings of significance were identified.
.3  Steam Generator Tube ISI
  a. Inspection Scope
    The inspectors reviewed activities, plans, a pre-outage degradation assessment, and
    procedures for the inspection and evaluation of the 1B steam generator Inconel Alloy
    690TT tubing, to determine if the activities were being conducted in accordance with TS
    and applicable industry standards. Data gathering, analysis, and evaluation activities
    were reviewed. The inspectors reviewed data results for tubes R18C16, R16C16,
                                                                                    Enclosure

      R16C17, R29C51, R24C58, and R03C58 to verify the adequacy of the licensees
      primary, secondary, and resolution analyses. The inspectors observed the licensee
      perform the video/visual inspection in the lower bowl area of the steam generator to
      determine if any foreign materials or debris were present. The inspectors observed the
      licensees video probe inspection of the upper tube plate area around the periphery,
      down the tube lane under Row 1 U-bends, and in-bundle down selected tube columns.
      The inspectors observed the licensees Quality Control examiner oversee the vendor
      inspection for foreign objects or debris before the closing of the lower manway in the
      steam generator. The inspectors also reviewed data operators and analysts
      certifications and qualifications, including medical exams.
  b. Findings
      No findings of significance were identified.
1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification Program
.1  Biennial Review
  a. Inspection Scope
      The inspectors reviewed the facility operating history and associated documents in
      preparation for this inspection. During the week of January 23, 2006, the inspectors
      reviewed documentation, interviewed licensee personnel, and observed the
      administration of simulator operating tests associated with the licensees operator
      requalification program. Each of the activities performed by the inspectors was done to
      assess the effectiveness of the licensee in implementing requalification requirements
      identified in 10 CFR 55, Operators Licenses. The evaluations were also performed to
      determine if the licensee effectively implemented operator requalification guidelines
      established in NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power
      Reactors, and Inspection Procedure 71111.11, Licensed Operator Requalification
      Program. The inspectors also reviewed and evaluated the licensees simulation facility
      for adequacy for use in operator licensing examinations. The inspectors observed two
      operator crews during the performance of the operating tests. Documentation reviewed
      included written examinations, Job Performance Measures (JPMs), simulator scenarios,
      licensee procedures, on-shift records, simulator modification request records and
      performance test records, the feedback process, licensed operator qualification records,
      remediation plans, watch standing, and medical records. The records were inspected
      against the criteria listed in Inspection Procedure 71111.11. Documents reviewed
      during the inspection are listed in the Attachment.

.2  Requalifications Activities Review
  a. Inspection Scope
      The inspectors observed an annual licensed operator requalification simulator
      examination on March 7, 2006. The scenerio, Simulator Examination Guide SXG-79,
      involved a loss of first stage pressure, a loss of the main feedwater pump, a reactor
      coolant pump seal failure, and a faulted steam generator.
      The inspectors observed crew performance in terms of communications; ability to take
      timely and proper actions; prioritizing, interpreting, and verifying alarms; correct use and
      implementation of procedures, including the alarm response procedures; timely control
      board operation and manipulation, including high-risk operator actions; and oversight
      and direction provided by the shift supervisor, including the ability to identify and
      implement appropriate TS actions. The inspectors observed the post training critique to
      determine that weaknesses or improvement areas revealed by the training were
      captured by the instructors and reviewed with the operators.
  b. Findings
      No findings of significance were identified.
1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Evaluation
  a. Inspection Scope
    The inspectors evaluated, as appropriate, for the four plant situations listed below: (1)
    the effectiveness of the risk assessments performed before maintenance activities were
    conducted; (2) the management of risk; (3) that, upon identification of an unforseen
    situation, necessary steps were taken to plan and control the resulting emergent work
    activities; and (4) that maintenance risk assessments and emergent work problems
    were adequately identified and resolved. The inspectors verified that the licensee was
    complying with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(4) and the data output from the
    licensees safety monitor associated with the risk profile of Units 1 and 2. Other
    documents reviewed are listed in Attachment.

    In addition, the inspectors completed an in-office review of WO 00494074-06, repair of
    control room pressure barrier door 2-BLD-STR-S54-11.
  b. Findings
    Introduction: A Green, NRC-identified non-cited violation (NCV), involving the Mitigating
    Systems Cornerstone, was identified for failure to translate design requirements into
    procedures as required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion III. Specifically, the licensee
    failed to properly translate the TS Operable-Operability definition into procedures which
    established the time the environmental hazard barriers between the turbine building and
    either the main control room or the emergency switchgear room were allowed to be
    inoperable during maintenance.
    Description: On March 16, 2005, the inspectors observed that the licensee considered
    themselves in a 24-hour limiting condition for operation while performing WO 00494074-
    06 on control room pressure barrier door 2-BLD-STR-S54-11. Since the door functions
    as a pressure barrier and also separates the harsh environment designated turbine
    building area from the mild environment of the control building, this was inconsistent
    with the guidance the NRC had issued in Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2001-009,
    Control of Hazard Barriers. The licensee initiated Plant Issue 2005-1080 to address the
    concern and Plant Issue 2005-2236 to address subsequent ones identified during the
                                                                                      Enclosure
 
                                              13
    resolution of the former plant issue. The licensee determined that due to a
    misapplication of the TS Operable-Operability definition regarding environmental hazard
    barriers, they had failed to consider that the supported systems and components should
    be considered inoperable when environmental hazard barriers become inoperable. This
    problem also extended to certain hazard barriers, including flood barriers, at North Anna
    and at its sister plant, the Surry Power Station.
    Correct application of the definition on March 16, 2005 would have resulted in entry into
    TS 3.0.3, which requires either the TS to be exited or a unit to be in Mode 3 within 8
    hours. Door 2-BLD-STR-S54-11 was inoperable for 4 hours and 52 minutes. Thus, no
    TS time limits were exceeded.
    Until a long term resolution is developed and implemented, the licensee has established
    compensatory measures including appropriately specifying entry into TS 3.0.3 when
    required and building temporary hazard barriers for planned evolutions.
    Analysis: Not establishing TS required limiting conditions for operations into procedures
    is a performance deficiency. This issue is more than minor because it could become a
    more significant condition, in that the unit could continue to operate at full power with
    main control room and emergency switchgear equipment exposed to potentially harsh
    environmental conditions (e.g. steam from a high energy line break in the turbine
    building) for a period of time greater than that allowed by TS. However, the time period
    that the pressure boundary door 2-BLD-STR-S54-11 was inoperable on March 16, 2005
    did not result in a violation of TS 3.0.3 and thus no performance deficiency existed for
    that specific event. After management review, the issue was assigned a significance of
    Green because the inoperability period was limited to a maximum of 24 hours by other
    TS. Hazard barriers are associated with protecting equipment which mitigate accidents
    and thus are associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone.
    Enforcement: 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion, Design Basis, requires that design
    bases be translated into instructions. Contrary to this, on March 16, 2005, design basis,
    i.e., TS definition of Operable-Operability, was not translated into instructions such that
    unit operation above Mode 3 would be limited to 8 hours when environment hazard
    barriers were inoperable. Because this finding is of very low safety significance (Green)
    and is in the licensees corrective action program as Plant Issues N-2005-1080 and N-
    2005-2236, it is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section VI.A of the NRC's
    Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000338, 339/2006002-01, Failure to translate TS operable-
    operability definition regarding hazard barriers into instructions as required by 10 CFR
    50 Appendix B Criterion III.
1R15 Operability Evaluations
  a. Inspection Scope
    The inspectors reviewed five operability evaluations affecting risk-significant mitigating
    systems, listed below, to assess, as appropriate: (1) the technical adequacy of the
    evaluations; (2) whether continued system operability was warranted; (3) whether other
                                                                                      Enclosure
 
                                              14
    existing degraded conditions were considered as compensating measures; (4) whether
    the compensatory measures, if involved, were in place, would work as intended, and
    were appropriately controlled; (5) where continued operability was considered
    unjustified, the impact on TS Limiting Conditions for Operation and the risk significance
    in accordance with the SDP. The inspectors review included a verification that the
    operability determinations were made as specified by Procedure VPAP-1408, System
    Operability.

1R19 Post Maintenance Testing
  a. Inspection Scope
    The inspectors reviewed six post maintenance test procedures and/or test activities, as
    appropriate, for selected risk-significant mitigating systems to assess whether: (1) the
    effect of testing on the plant had been adequately addressed by control room and/or
    engineering personnel; (2) testing was adequate for the maintenance performed; (3)
    acceptance criteria were clear and adequately demonstrated operational readiness
    consistent with design and licensing basis documents; (4) test instrumentation had
    current calibrations, range, and accuracy consistent with the application; (5) tests were
    performed as written with applicable prerequisites satisfied; (6) jumpers installed or
    leads lifted were properly controlled; (7) test equipment was removed following testing;
    and (8) equipment was returned to the status required to perform its safety function.

1R20 Refueling and Other Outages
.1  Unit 1 Unscheduled Outage
  a. Inspection Scope
      Unit 1 began an unscheduled outage on February 13, 2006, due to tube leaks in the 6B
      and 4B feedwater heaters. The unit cooled down to Mode 4 (approximately 330
      degrees F reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature) in order to secure main
      condenser vacuum for repairs to 6B feedwater heater. During the forced outage, the
      inspectors evaluated the licensees outage activities to verify that appropriate risk
      consideration was given in developing schedules and that the licensee adhered to
      administrative risk reduction methodologies. The inspectors also monitored the
      licensees risk management of off-normal plant conditions and ensured mitigation
      strategies were developed for any loss of key safety functions. The unit was
      synchronized to the grid on February 17, 2006, and 98% power was obtained on
      February 21, 2006. The licensee subsequently performed a coast down in preparation
      for a refueling outage.

    Emergency Planning Drill that involved a simulation of an earthquake, major break Loss
    of Coolant Accident (LOCA), and equipment malfunctions, resulting in a site area
    emergency and subsequent general emergency. The inspectors assessed emergency
    procedure usage, emergency plan classification, notifications, and the licensees
    identification and entrance of any drill problems into their corrective action program.
    This inspection evaluated the adequacy of the licensees conduct of the drill and critique
    performance. Drill issues were captured by the licensee in their corrective action
    program and were reviewed by the inspectors.

2.    RADIATION SAFETY
      Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety
2OS1 Access Controls To Radiologically Significant Areas
  a. Inspection Scope
      Access Controls. The inspectors reviewed and evaluated licensee guidance and its
      implementation for controlling and monitoring worker access to radiologically significant
      areas and tasks associated with the 2006 Unit 1 Refueling Outage (RFO). The
      inspectors evaluated changes to, and adequacy of, procedural guidance; directly
      observed implementation of established administrative and physical radiological
      controls; appraised radiation worker and technician knowledge of, and proficiency in
      implementing, radiation protection activities; and assessed radiation worker exposures
      to radiation and radioactive material.
      The inspectors directly observed controls established for radiation workers and Health
      Physics Technician (HPT) staff in potential airborne radioactivity area, radiation area,
      high radiation area (HRA), locked high radiation area (LHRA), and very high radiation
      area (VHRA) locations. Controls and their implementation for LHRA, LHRA > 15 rem/hr,
      and VHRA keys, and for storage of irradiated material within the spent fuel pool were
      reviewed and discussed in detail. Established radiological controls were evaluated for
      selected RFO tasks including transfer canal blind flange removal, upper internals set,
      head set, refueling operations, valve maintenance, radioactive waste (radwaste)
      processing and storage, and radioactive material/waste shipping activities. In addition,
      licensee controls for areas where dose rates could change significantly as a result of
      plant shutdown and refueling operations were reviewed and discussed.
      For selected tasks, the inspectors reviewed Radiation Work Permit (RWP) details and
      attended pre-job briefings to assess communication of radiological control requirements
      to workers. Occupational worker adherence to selected RWPs and HPT proficiency in
      providing job coverage were evaluated through direct observations, remote
      observations, and interviews with licensee staff. Electronic dosimeter (ED) alarm
      set-points and worker stay times were evaluated against applicable radiation survey
      results. Worker exposure as measured by ED and by licensee evaluations of internal
      doses during current refueling outage activities were reviewed and assessed
      independently. For HRA tasks involving significant dose gradients, e.g., radiological
      surveys of the steam generator (S/G) bowl and reactor cavity entry, the inspectors
      evaluated the use and placement of whole body and extremity dosimetry to monitor
      worker exposure.

  Postings and physical controls established within the radiologically controlled area
  (RCA) for access to the Unit 1 reactor containment building (RCB), the Unit 1 and Unit 2
  reactor auxiliary building (RAB) locations, radioactive material storage locations,
  decontamination building, and Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) were
  evaluated during facility tours. The inspectors independently measured radiation dose
  rates or directly observed conduct of licensee radiation surveys and results for the
  transfer canal, Unit 1 B S/G bowl, reactor cavity, Unit 1 primary filter, posted LHRAs
  within the Unit 1 RCB, and select dose significant areas in the RAB. Results were
  compared to current licensee surveys and assessed against established postings and
  radiation controls. Licensee controls were observed for selected Unit 1 and Unit 2 RAB
  LHRA and VHRA locations.
  The inspectors evaluated implementation and effectiveness of licensee controls for both
  airborne and external radiation exposure. The inspectors reviewed and discussed
  selected whole body count analyses conducted between September 2005 and March
  2006 to evaluate implementation and effectiveness of personnel monitoring. The
  inspectors directly observed processes used for externally contaminated individuals,
  including those with potential uptakes of radioactive material. The inspectors reviewed
  administrative and physical controls including air sampling, barrier integrity, engineering
  controls, and postings for tasks having the potential for individual worker internal
  exposures to exceed 30 millirem committed effective dose equivalent.
  Radiation protection activities were evaluated against UFSAR, TS, and 10 CFR Parts 19
  and 20 requirements. Specific assessment criteria included UFSAR Section 12,
  Radiation Protection, TS Section 5.4.1, Procedures, and Section 5.7, High Radiation
  Area. Detailed procedural guidance and records reviewed for this inspection area are
  listed in Sections 2OS1 and 4OA5 of the Attachment.
  Problem Identification and Resolution. An audit, a self-assessment, and licensee
  Corrective Action Program (CAP) documents associated with access controls to
  radiologically significant areas were reviewed and assessed. The inspectors evaluated
  the licensees ability to identify, characterize, prioritize, and resolve the identified issues
  in accordance with VPAP-1501, Deviations, Revision 17 and VPAP-1601, Corrective
  Action, Revision 21. Licensee CAP documents associated with access control issues,
  personnel radiation monitoring, and personnel exposure events which were reviewed
  and evaluated in detail during inspection of this program area are identified in Sections
  2OS1, 4OA1, and 4OA5 of the Attachment.
  The inspectors completed the 21 specified line-item samples detailed in Inspection
  Procedure 71121.01.

2OS2 As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) Planning and Controls
  a.    Inspection Scope
        Implementation of the licensee's ALARA program during the 2006 Unit 1 RFO was
        observed and evaluated by the inspectors. The inspectors reviewed ALARA planning,
        dose estimates, and prescribed ALARA controls for outage work tasks expected to incur
        the maximum collective exposures. Reviewed activities included containment
        scaffolding, head disassembly, manual valve maintenance, air operated valve
        maintenance, and routine HP coverage. Incorporation of planning, established work
        controls, expected dose rates, and dose expenditure into the ALARA pre-job briefings
        and RWPs for those activities were also reviewed. Work in progress reviews were
        inspected for three RWPs in which the actual dose was approaching the estimated dose
        for the job. Selected elements of the licensee's source term reduction and control
        program were examined to evaluate the effectiveness of the program in supporting
        implementation of the ALARA program goals. Shutdown chemistry program
        implementation and the resultant effect on RCB and RAB dose rate trending data were
        reviewed and discussed with cognizant licensee representatives. Small areas with
        abnormally high dose rates forming in the steam generator channel heads were
        discussed with HP and Chemistry Supervision.
        Trends in individual and collective personnel exposures at the facility were reviewed.
        The inspectors examined the dose records of all declared pregnant workers during 2005
        and first quarter of 2006 to evaluate total or current gestation doses. Applicable
        procedures were reviewed to assess licensee controls for declared pregnant workers.
        Trends in the plants three-year rolling average collective exposure history, outage,
        non-outage, and total annual doses for selected years were reviewed and discussed
        with licensee representatives.
        The licensee's ALARA program implementation and practices were evaluated for
        consistency with UFSAR Chapter 12, Radiation Protection; 10 CFR Part 20
        requirements; Regulatory Guide 8.29, Instruction Concerning Risks from Occupational
        Radiation Exposure, February 1996; and licensee procedures. Documents reviewed
        during the inspection of this program area are listed in Section 2OS2 of the Attachment.
        Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspectors reviewed the CAP documents
        listed in Section 2OS2 of the report Attachment that were related to the licensees
        ALARA program. The inspectors assessed the licensees ability to identify,
        characterize, prioritize, and resolve the identified issues in accordance with VPAP-1501,
        Deviations, Revision 17 and VPAP-1601, Corrective Action, Revision 21.
        The inspectors completed 22 of the specified line-item samples detailed in Inspection
        Procedure 71121.02.

2PS2 Radioactive Material Processing and Transportation
  a. Inspection Scope
    Waste Processing and Characterization. During system walk-downs, the inspectors
    observed selected liquid and solid radwaste processing system components for material
    condition and system configuration agreement with the UFSAR and Process Control
    Program (PCP). Inspected equipment included the high level and low level waste drain
    tanks, waste evaporator tank, evaporator test tanks, spent resin hold-up and dewatering
    tanks, and associated piping, valves, and pumps. The inspectors discussed component
    function, processing system changes, and radwaste program implementation with
    licensee staff.
    The 2004 Effluent Report and radionuclide characterizations for each major waste
    stream were reviewed and discussed with the radwaste staff. For Unit 2 Dry Active
    Waste and liquid waste treatment resin, the inspectors evaluated analyses for
    hard-to-detect nuclides, reviewed the use of scaling factors, and examined comparison
    results between licensee waste stream characterizations and outside laboratory data.
    The licensees waste stream mixing and concentration averaging methodology was
    evaluated and discussed with radwaste personnel. The inspectors also discussed the
    licensees guidance for monitoring changes in waste stream isotopic mixtures with
    knowledgeable personnel.
    Radwaste processing activities were reviewed for compliance with the licensees PCP
    and UFSAR, Chapter 11. Waste stream characterization analyses were reviewed
    against regulations detailed in 10 CFR Part 20, 10 CFR Part 61, and guidance provided
    in the Branch Technical Position on Waste Classification and Waste Form. Reviewed
    documents are listed in Section 2PS2 of the Attachment.
    Transportation. The inspectors directly observed preparation activities for the shipment
    of pressurizer safety relief valves. The inspectors noted appropriateness of package
    markings and placarding and interviewed shipping technicians regarding Department of
    Transportation (DOT) regulations. The inspectors observed radiation surveys of the
    transport vehicle prior to shipment.
    Six shipping records were reviewed for consistency with licensee procedures and
    compliance with NRC and DOT regulations. The inspectors reviewed emergency
    response information, DOT shipping package classification, radiation survey results, and
    evaluated whether receiving licensees were authorized to accept radioactive materials.
    Licensee procedures for opening and closing Type B shipping casks were compared to
    recommended vendor protocols and Certificate of Compliance requirements. In
    addition, training records for selected individuals currently qualified to prepare
    radioactive material shipments were reviewed.

                                                22
      Transportation program implementation was reviewed against regulations detailed in
      10 CFR Part 20, 10 CFR Part 71, 49 CFR Parts 172-178, and the guidance provided in
      NUREG-1608. Training activities were assessed against 49 CFR Part 172 Subpart H.
      Documents reviewed during the inspection are listed in Section 2PS2 of the Attachment.
      Problem Identification and Resolution. Two audits and licensee CAP documents were
      reviewed and assessed. The inspectors evaluated the licensees ability to characterize,
      prioritize, and resolve the identified issues in accordance with procedures VPAP-1501,
      Deviations, Revision 17 and VPAP-1601, Corrective Action, Revision 21. Documents
      reviewed for problem identification and resolution are listed in Section 2PS2 of the

4.    OTHER ACTIVITIES
4OA1 Performance Indicator Verification
  a. Inspection Scope
      Cornerstones: Initiating Events and Barrier Integrity
      The inspectors sampled licensee submittals for the three Performance Indicators listed
      below for U1 and U2. The inspectors reviewed data from the licensees corrective action
      program, maintenance rule records, operating logs and maintenance work orders for the
      period covering the first quarter 2005 through the fourth quarter 2005. Discussions with
      licensee personnel were held by the inspectors regarding the data reviewed. The data
      was compared with that displayed on the NRCs public web site. The performance
      indicator method of assessment was compared with the guidelines contained in Nuclear
      Energy Institute NEI 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Indicator Guideline," Revision 3,
      and the Performance Indicator Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list.
      *        Unplanned Scrams;

                                                                                    Enclosure
 
                                                23
      and documenting Performance Indicator data. Documents reviewed are listed in
      Section 4OA1 of the Attachment.
      Cornerstone: Occupational Radiation Safety
      The inspectors reviewed the Occupational Exposure Control Effectiveness Performance
      Indicator results from July 2005 through March 2006. For the assessment period, the
      inspectors reviewed documented electronic dosimeter alarms and CAP documents
      related to controls for exposure significant areas. The inspectors also reviewed licensee
      procedural guidance for collecting and documenting Performance Indicator data.
      Report Section 2OS1 contains additional details regarding the inspection of controls for
      exposure significant areas. Documents reviewed are listed in Sections 2OS1 and 4OA1
      of the Attachment.
      During plant tours the inspectors also periodically assessed the Occupational Exposure
      Control Effectiveness and the RETS/ODCM Radiological Effluent Occurrence
      Performance Indicators by determining if high radiation areas (>1R/hr) were properly
      secured and looking for unmonitored radiation release pathways.
  b. Findings
      No findings of significance were identified. The performance indicators all remained in
      the licensee response band (Green).
4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems
.1  Daily Review
      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 corrective action program. This review was accomplished by reviewing daily
      Plant Issues summary reports and periodically attending daily Plant Issue Review Team
      meetings.
.2  Annual Sample Review
  a. Inspection Scope
      The inspectors reviewed the licensees assessments and corrective actions for Plant
      Issue N-2005-3462, 2H emergency diesel generator developed a coolant leak on the
      control side between the #1 and #3 cylinders, during performance of 2-PT-82H. EDG
      was manually unloaded and shutdown prior to completion of PT. The Plant Issue was
      reviewed to ensure that the full extent of the issue was identified, an appropriate
      evaluation was performed, and appropriate corrective actions were specified and
      prioritized. The inspectors also evaluated the Plant Issue against the requirements of
                                                                                      Enclosure
 
                                                24
      the licensees corrective action program as specified in VPAP-1601, Corrective Action
      Program, VPAP-1501, Deviations, and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B.
  b. Findings and Observations
      There were no findings of significance identified. On September 6, 2005, the licensee
      initiated Plant Issue N-2005-3462 in response to coolant leaks on the Unit 2H
      Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) identified during the monthly surveillance test. The
      licensee subsequently completed a functional evaluation and declared a Generic Letter
      91-18 condition (operable but degraded) for the component. The inspectors verified the
      licensees functional evaluation which considered that the leakrate of the emergency
      diesel generator was within the tanks makeup capability and makeup could be
      completed without any extraordinary efforts. The inspectors reviewed the history of
      coolant leaks for the EDGs which included Plant Issue N-2005-0101 and work order
      526277-01, for coolant leaks on the Unit 1H EDG, which was completed on January 9,
      2005. During that time, the licensee identified that the water by-pass fitting gaskets that
      were manufactured by Cogemica should be replaced with the new model 3000 gaskets
      that were manufactured by Garlock. The licensee subsequently scheduled the
      replacement of the Unit 1 EDGs gaskets during the 2005 diesel inspections and Unit 2
      EDGs gaskets during the 2006 diesel inspections. During the fall of 2005, the
      licensees 2H and 2J EDGs incurred failures of their water by-pass fitting gaskets (Plant
      Issue N-2005-3462/3633), which resulted in more coolant leaks. The licensee
      appropriately determined to review their previous corrective actions and concluded that
      their corrective actions were untimely; the inspectors agreed with their conclusion. The
      replacement of the by-pass gaskets on the Unit 2 EDGs was subsequently rescheduled
      to September 2005 to correct the failed gaskets. The inspectors used IMC 0612 to
      review the licensees actions and determined that because the failure of the water
      by-pass fitting gaskets did not render the EDGs inoperable, the licenses untimely
      corrective action for a condition adverse to quality would be considered a minor violation
      of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B Criterion XVI.
4OA5 Other Activities
.1  Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Radiological Controls
  a. Inspection Scope
      The inspectors conducted independent gamma and neutron surveys of the ISFSI facility
      and compared the results to previous surveys. The inspectors also observed and
      evaluated implementation of radiological controls, including RWPs and postings, and
      discussed the controls with an HPT and HP supervisory staff. Radiological controls for
      loading the ISFSI casks were also reviewed and discussed. The inspectors reviewed
      environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter records and discussed the use of the
      dosimeters and resultant neutron/gamma data with cognizant HP supervisory staff.
      Radiological control activities for ISFSI areas were evaluated against 10 CFR Part 20,
      10 CFR Part 72, and applicable licensee procedures. Documents reviewed are listed in
      Section 4OA5 of the Attachment

.2  (Closed) Unresolved Item (URI) 05000338, 339/2005004-02: Inadequate Design
    Control Results in Safeguards Instrument Rack Room Flood Problem
    Introduction. A Green self-revealing non-cited violation was identified for inadequate
    design control. Specifically, back-flow preventers were not installed in floor drains that
    resulted in a flood potential for the Units 1 and 2 Safeguards Instrument Rack Rooms.
    This finding was initially characterized as contrary to the requirements of 10 CFR 50,
    Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action. Subsequent review resulted in a finding
    which was contrary to the requirements of Criterion III, Design Control.
    Discussion. On July 9, 2005, back flush of control room chiller service water strainers
    2-HV-S-1A and 1B as directed by engineering transmittal, ET N-05-0034, Operability of
    2-HV-P-22C, Service Water Pump for 2-HV-E-4C, was performed in the Unit 2 air
    conditioning chiller room (ACCR). Following this work activity, the licensee observed
    water around a floor drain in the adjacent air conditioning fan rooms (ACFR), and
    initiated Plant Issue N-2005-2565 to evaluate the abnormal condition. Subsequently,
    the licensee determined that back-flow preventers were not installed in the floor drains
    on the ACFRs on both units. This design requirement is necessary to ensure the
    functionality of the flood walls between the ACCR and adjacent ACFR on Units 1 and 2.
    Therefore, the licensee initiated a flood watch, declared the flood walls inoperable, and
    entered a Yellow six-day maintenance rule risk condition based on the unavailability of
    the flood walls to perform their function. The ACFRs on both units are adjacent and
    open to the safeguards instrument rack rooms, which contain the solid state protection
    system (SSPS) and process instrumentation and are at a two feet lower elevation. Each
    instrument rack room has a sump with two pumps rated at 40 gpm each. On Unit 2, the
    sump pumps discharge line is hard-piped directly to the ACCR sump. However, on Unit
    1 the sump pumps discharge line is routed to a drain funnel interconnected to the floor
    drain system of the adjacent ACFR. The licensee determined that this funnel did not
    have a back-flow preventer installed and initiated Plant Issue N-2005-2597. Calculation
    ME-0782 was performed by the licensee to evaluate the consequences of a service
    water line break in either the Unit 1 or 2 ACCR. The calculation concluded that the peak
    flow rate from the Units 1 and 2 ACCR to the adjacent ACFR via the floor drain piping
    was 182.9 gpm and 169.4 gpm respectively, which exceeds the capacity of the sump
    pumps.
    The inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective action database and determined that
    on October 15, 2004, Plant Issue N-2004-4554 was initiated due to water discharge
    from a capped floor drain outside of the ACCR. An other evaluation was assigned to
    engineering to review this condition for impact on the flood protection assumed for the
    ACCR and connecting areas as applicable. This evaluation did not identify and correct
    the absence of back-flow preventers in the adjacent ACFR floor drains. The inspectors
    also identified the following related Plant Issues that did not result in the identification
    and correction of this problem:
                                                                                        Enclosure
 
                                          26
*        N-1999-3405, which documented operational experience from Three Mile Island
        regarding check valves missing from floor drains and the impact on flood
        protection; and,
*        N-1990-0020, IN 83-44-S1: Potential damage to redundant safety equipment as
        a result of backflow through the equipment and floor drain system.
The inspectors concluded that the failure to install the back-flow preventers is contrary
to the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, which requires in part that
measures shall be established to assure the design basis for those structures, systems
and components (SSCs) to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into
specifications, drawings, and procedures.
Analysis. The inspectors determined that the finding had a credible impact on safety
based on the potential for flooding to impact both trains of SSPS cabinets used for
engineered safeguards. The inspectors referenced IMC 0612 and determined that if left
uncorrected this finding would result in a more significant safety concern and is
consequently more than minor. Based on a review of IMC 0609 for the SDP, the
inspectors determined the finding would require a Phase III evaluation due to the loss or
degradation of equipment specifically designed to mitigate a flooding event and the
impact on two trains of a safety system. This evaluation concluded that the
performance deficiency was of very low safety significance (Green) based on the
existence of high level alarms for the associated sumps and the response time allowed
for an operator to isolate the leak (approximately 40 minutes). The inspectors also
concluded that this finding has aspects relating to the cross-cutting area of problem
identification and resolution in that the licensee had multiple opportunities to identify the
condition in their corrective action program (i.e. plant issues N-1990-0020,
N-1999-3405, and N-2004-4554).
Enforcement. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires in part that
measures shall be established to assure the design basis for those SSCs to which this
appendix applies are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, and procedures.
Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to ensure that back-flow preventers were
installed in the Unit 1 and 2 ACFRs to ensure the functionality of the flood walls and
safety-related instrumentation in the SSPS rack rooms. This violation is characterized
as a Green NCV and is identified as NCV 05000338, 339/2006002-02, Inadequate
Design Control Results in Safeguards Instrument Rack Room Flood Problem. This
finding is in the licensee's corrective action program as Plant Issue N-2005-2565. URI
05000338, 339/2005004-02, Inadequate Corrective Action Results in Safeguards
Instrument Rack Room Flood Problem, is closed.

4OA6 Meetings, including Exit
  .1 Exit Meeting Summary
    An exit meeting was conducted on January 27, 2006 to discuss the findings of the
    biennial Licensed Operator Requalification Program inspection. The inspectors
    confirmed that proprietary information was reviewed but is not contained in this report.
    Two interim exit meetings were conducted on March 17 and March 24, 2006 with the
    site vice-president and ISI/Engineering managers. Additionally, an exit was conducted
    on March 30, 2006 to discuss the findings of the Radiation Protection Baseline
    Inspection.
    On April 11, 2006, the Senior Resident Inspector and the Chief of Reactor Projects
    Branch 5 presented the inspection results for the routine integrated quarterly report to
    Mr. Jack Davis and other members of the staff. The licensee acknowledged the
    findings. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or
    examined during the inspection.
.2  Annual Assessment Meeting Summary
    On April 18, 2006, the NRC Chief of Reactor Projects Branch 5 met with Virginia Electric
    and Power Company to discuss the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) and the
    North Anna Power Station annual assessment of safety performance for the period of
    January 1, 2005 - December 31, 2005. The major topics addressed were the NRCs
    assessment program and the results of the North Anna Power Station assessment.
    Attendees included North Anna Power Station site management and members of site
    staff.
    This meeting was open to the public. The presentation material used for the discussion
    is available from the NRCs document system (ADAMS) as accession number
    ML061140047. ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at
    http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violation
    The following finding of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and is
    a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of Section VI of the NRC
    Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as an NCV.
    TS 5.4.1 requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and
    maintained covering the activities in the applicable procedures recommended by
    Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978, of which part 9.a.
    requires procedures for performing maintenance. Contrary to the above, on January 6,
    2006, the licensee failed to establish adequate procedure steps in maintenance
    procedures 0-MCM-0103-01, "Repair of the Charging and High Head Safety Injection
    Pump, and 0-MCM-0103-04, Disassembly, Inspection and Repair of
    Westinghouse/Nuttall Type SU High Speed Gear Drives (Charging Pump Speed

    a failure to drain and clean the oil side of the lube oil cooler.
    Debris, later found in the lube oil cooler, in conjunction with the tight clearances
    subsequently led to a forced shutdown of 2-CH-P-1A (A Charging Pump, Unit 2) from
    high vibration due to impending bearing failure. The inspectors reviewed IMCs 0612
    and 0609 and determined that the finding was of very low safety significance given the
    availability of the other charging pumps. The licensee has this finding documented in
    their corrective action program as Plant Issue N-2006-0154.
