2004-0098 ASSESSMENT AREA: | |||
Operations Performance PURPOSE: | |||
To provide an independent and comprehensive assessment of Operations Performance at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The assessment will be performed in accordance with the requirements of the March 8,2004, Confirmatory Order Modifying License No. | |||
NPF-3,and Davis-Besse Business Practice DBBP-VP-0009, Management Plan for Confirmatory Order Independent Assessments. The assessment will be used to identify areas for improvement, requiring corrective actions with action plans, and observations for other improvement opportunities. The assessment will also be used to assess the rigor, criticality, and overall quality of available Davis-Besse internal self-assessment activities in this performance area. | |||
SCOPE: | |||
The Independent Assessment Team will evaluate the following Operations activities occurring during the assessment period using current industry standards and applicable Davis-Besse procedures: | |||
Shift turnover; Control manipulations; Communications; Interdepartmental interfaces; Procedural use; Awareness of plant and equipment status and workarounds; Pre-job/activity briefings; Non-shift Operations management interface and oversight; Shift management command and control; Shift managements evaluation, prioritization, and disposition of maintenance activities and emergent issues; Operations behaviors in the areas of questioning attitude and safety. | |||
Shift handling of off-normal operations. | |||
Observation of operator simulator training to compare crew performance, demeanor, and communication skills with actual control room operations. | |||
The assessment team will review selected Condition Reports related to Operations section performance and independently assess the corrective actions taken. | |||

Dear Mr. Caldwell:
The purpose of this letter is to submit Revision 2 to the assessment plan and related information for the independent outside assessment of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNFS) operations performance. The original Operations Performance Assessment Plan was submitted on May 17,2004, via DBNPS letter Serial Number 1-1364 with Revision 1 submitted on June 30,2004, via DBNFS letter Serial Number 1-1373.
In accordance with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) letter, dated March 8, 2004, Approval to Restart the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, Closure of Confirmatory Action Letter, and Issuance of Confirmatory Order, (letter Log 1-4524),
the DBNPS is submitting Revision 2 to the Operations Performance Assessment Plan, including the identification and qualifications of the assessors. Revision 2 is being submitted due to the refinement of the assessment scope and assessment methods.
This assessment remains scheduled to commence on August 16,2004. The assessment length has been changed from one week to approximately one and one-half weeks.

Operations Performance Assessment Plan - Revision 2 NUMBER.
2004-0098 ASSESSMENT AREA:
Operations Performance PURPOSE:
To provide an independent and comprehensive assessment of Operations Performance at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The assessment will be performed in accordance with the requirements of the March 8,2004, Confirmatory Order Modifying License No.
NPF-3,and Davis-Besse Business Practice DBBP-VP-0009, Management Plan for Confirmatory Order Independent Assessments. The assessment will be used to identify areas for improvement, requiring corrective actions with action plans, and observations for other improvement opportunities. The assessment will also be used to assess the rigor, criticality, and overall quality of available Davis-Besse internal self-assessment activities in this performance area.
SCOPE:
The Independent Assessment Team will evaluate the following Operations activities occurring during the assessment period using current industry standards and applicable Davis-Besse procedures:
Shift turnover; Control manipulations; Communications; Interdepartmental interfaces; Procedural use; Awareness of plant and equipment status and workarounds; Pre-job/activity briefings; Non-shift Operations management interface and oversight; Shift management command and control; Shift managements evaluation, prioritization, and disposition of maintenance activities and emergent issues; Operations behaviors in the areas of questioning attitude and safety.
Shift handling of off-normal operations.
Observation of operator simulator training to compare crew performance, demeanor, and communication skills with actual control room operations.
The assessment team will review selected Condition Reports related to Operations section performance and independently assess the corrective actions taken.
Page 1 of 4
Operations Performance Assessment Plan - Revision 2 SCOPE Continued:
The assessment team will also review the referenced procedure/documents during the Preparation Period prior to site arrival.
The Assessment Team will also evaluate the effectiveness of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant's self-assessment activities associated with Operations performance.
- a. Review the results of Davis-Besse Quarterly Quality Assessments that evaluated Operations performance. Determine if the assessments were comprehensive and were effective actions taken to correct problems or weaknesses identified.
- b. Evaluate the effectiveness of self-assessment capability by reviewing corrective actions associated with self-assessment reports, audits (including audits of both onsite and offsite safety committee activities), and evaluations conducted on Operations performance. Evaluate the significance of a sample of other self-assessment findings to determine the effectiveness of the self-assessment effort.
- c. Determine if the Davis-Besse Operations staff is aggressive in correcting self-assessment findings and determine whether the corrective actions are adequate, timely, properly prioritized, and that effectiveness reviews are ensuring the desired results.
INDEPENDENT ASSESSMENT TEAM:
Larry E. Briggs, Silver Fox Synergies, LLC, Team Leader 0 Paul H. Bissett, Silver Fox Synergies, LLC 0 Freddie Forrest, Unit One Operations Manager, Arkansas Nuclear 0 Gene St. Pierre, Station Director, Seabrook Station Biographies attached.
SCHEDULE:
May 4 through 14,2004, develop, review and submit assessment plan to NRC.

August 15,2004, assessment team will assemble near the plant for final assessment preparations.
August 16 through 25,2004, conduct onsite assessment and provide Davis-Besse with preliminary results prior to leaving site.
Final team assessment report will be provided to Davis-Besse within 14 days after the completion of the on-site assessment.
Final Davis-Besse assessment report and action plans (if required by findings) will be submitted to the NRC within 45 days of the completion of the on-site assessment.

Operations Performance Assessment Plan - Revision 2 ASSESSMENT METHODS:
The independent assessment team will use the listed references as guidance to evaluate performance of the Operations department. The assessment methodology will include, but is not limited to the following:
- 1. Observe Control Room, Non-Licensed and Operations Management personnel in the performance of their assignments. Assessment team member shift assignment will overlap shift turnovers to compare consistency of crew operations.
Minimum of 3 day shifts, 2 backshifts, and 2 deep backshifts.
Minimum of 2 shifts of non-licensed activities.
- 2. Interview selected Control Room, Non-Licensed, and Operations Management personnel.
Minimum of 4 licensed, 4 non-licensed, and 2 management.
- 3. Review selected Condition Reports (CR) and corrective actions to evaluate safety perspective, appropriate cause determination, and corrective action effectiveness. An Index of Operations related CRs would be provided during the off-site prep weeks.
Minimum of 5 Condition Reports.
- 4. Observation of simulator training during routine and abnormal operating condition using R E G 1021 as guidance and as a comparison with actual Control room observations.
