SUMMARY
IR 05000483/2014004; 06/21/2014 - 09/19/2014; Callaway Plant, Integrated Resident and Regional Report; Maintenance Effectiveness. The inspection activities described in this report were performed between June 21 and September 19, 2014, by the resident inspectors at the Callaway Plant and inspectors from the NRC's Region IV office. Two findings of very low safety significance (Green) are documented in this report. One of these findings involved a violation of NRC requirements. The significance of inspection findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red), which is determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process." Their cross-cutting aspects are determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0310, "Components Within the Cross-Cutting Areas." Violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process."
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
- Green.
The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing finding involving failure to verify the proper material was installed in the plant during a modification to the circulating water pumps. Specifically, Request for Resolution 201300416 specified the use of ASTM A276 410 stainless steel cap screws with a tensile strength around 186 ksi. Contrary to this, 410 stainless steel cap screws with a tensile strength between 201 ksi and 221 ksi were installed. Because the tensile strength was much higher, and thus more brittle and susceptible to stress corrosion, these cap screws were not appropriate for the application. This led to failure of the cap screws and the separation of the shaft coupling for circulating water pump B after less than one operating cycle in service, degrading condenser vacuum. The licensee removed the modification and installed the original type cap screws. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201404722. The inspectors determined that failure to verify the correct materials were installed in the plant during a modification was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as during power operations. Specifically, failure to install the correct material resulted in failure of circulating water pump B and degrading condenser vacuum. The inspectors evaluated the finding using NRC Inspection Manual 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, "Initiating Event Screening Questions." The inspectors determined the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the transient initiator did not cause a reactor trip and the loss of mitigating equipment. This finding has an avoid complacency cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee relied on the vendor to provide the correct material and did not verify the cap screws met the material specification [H.12]. (Section 1R12.2)
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- Green.
The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," for the licensee's failure to perform nondestructive testing on portions of the essential service water system known to be susceptible to wall thinning in accordance with procedures. As a result, the licensee failed to identify wall thinning prior to developing a through-wall leak that rendered train A inoperable. Specifically, despite procedural guidance to the contrary, technicians only used the low frequency electromagnetic technique testing, which cannot monitor bends and portions of welds. They also failed to properly calibrate this equipment, and failed to perform ultrasonic testing on the portions of essential service water system that could not be properly monitored by use of low frequency electromagnetic technique. The resultant through-wall leaks were repaired according to ASME code standards. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201405200 and planned to re-perform testing during the fall of 2014. Failure to follow procedures while performing nondestructive testing on portions of the essential service water system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, failure to perform nondestructive testing on portions of the essential service water system that were known to be susceptible to wall thinning resulted in the failure to prevent a through-wall leak affecting the availability of a safety related system. Using NRC Inspection Manual 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power," the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because it only affected a single train, and resulted in a loss of function for less than its technical specifications allowed outage time. This finding has a procedure adherence cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee failed to ensure that individuals followed processes, procedures, and work instructions. Specifically, licensee oversight failed to ensure that contractors followed specific guidance in their procedures for both ensuring that the low frequency electromagnetic technique tool was appropriately calibrated and areas unable to be scanned were tested utilizing ultrasonic testing [H.8]. (Section 1R12.1)
Licensee-Identified Violations

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's work practices to evaluate whether these may have played a role in the degradation of the structures, systems and components. The inspectors assessed the licensee's characterization of the degradation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65 (the Maintenance Rule), and verified that the licensee was appropriately tracking degraded performance and conditions in accordance with the Maintenance Rule.
These activities constituted completion of two maintenance effectiveness samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12.
b. Findings
1. Failure to Perform Nondestructive Testing on Essential Service Water Piping in Accordance with Procedures
Introduction.
The inspectors reviewed a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," for the licensee's failure to perform nondestructive testing on portions of essential service water system train A known to be susceptible to pipe wall thinning in accordance with procedures. Specifically, despite procedural guidance to the contrary, technicians failed to perform ultrasonic testing (UT) on essential service water piping during the performance of low frequency electromagnetic technique (LFET) testing; resulting in both an improperly calibrated probe and areas that were not properly scanned. Due to this, a below minimum wall thickness was not discovered and a through-wall leak later occurred on the essential service water pump A discharge line resulting in system unavailability.
Description.
In April 2013, during a refueling outage, Callaway Plant conducted LFET testing on multiple pipes of both trains of essential service water. During this inspection, no indications of wall loss requiring follow-up UT were identified on the train A discharge piping.
On August 4, 2014, after a routine start of essential service water pump A, the licensee discovered a through-wall leak downstream of the pump discharge isolation valve. The system was declared inoperable and was drained. The extent of condition was evaluated by UT in accordance with ASME code requirements, and a second area with pipe wall thickness below minimum code requirements was found. Two 8-inch pipe caps were fabricated and welded over the flaws and system operability was restored on August 7. This issue and the corrective actions were documented in Callaway Action Request 201405138. After the August 4 event, the licensee wrote Callaway Action Request 201405200 to document the fact that despite no wall thinning being reported in the testing completed the year before, a through-wall leak occurred. The contractor that performed the inspection explained that equipment limitations caused these areas to not be within the LFET inspection area. Also, they were under the impression that because they were not certified to Callaway's UT standards for quality nondestructive examination, they were not authorized to perform UT on the areas that were not scanned by LFET. The contractor stated that they believed other nondestructive examination inspectors would perform the UT that was directed by the Callaway work order. This was despite the fact that the contractor's LFET procedure directed that the technicians themselves perform UT as required. Licensee oversight was never notified that the contractor did not perform the UT analyses, and did not recognize that the completed test documents did not include the expected UT results; as a result Callaway personnel did not complete these inspections either. Upon completion of the LFET inspections, a report was provided to the licensee but it was stored in the Raw Water Program Notebook without a formal acceptance review.
Callaway Procedure EDP-ZZ-01121, "Raw Water Systems Predictive Performance Program," step 4.1.1.c, states that "Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) measurements are taken in addition to LFET to confirm wall loss indications or areas that cannot be scanned with LFET." Also, the LFET probe must be calibrated to the pipe thickness by first performing UT on it to establish a baseline thickness. Since the contractor reported that no UT measurements were taken during the LFET testing, the licensee questioned the validity of all of the LFET data because the LFET probe may not have been calibrated correctly. As corrective actions for this issue, the licensee intends to re-perform the LFET testing during their subsequent refueling outage starting in October 2014.
Analysis.
Failure to follow procedures while performing nondestructive testing on portions of the essential service water system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to perform nondestructive testing on portions of the essential service water system known to be susceptible to wall thinning resulted in the failure to prevent a through-wall leak affecting the availability of a safety related system. Using NRC Inspection Manual 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power," the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because it did not result in a loss of system function, did not represent a loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specifications allowed outage time, and did not cause the loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significance. This finding has a procedure adherence cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee failed to ensure that individuals followed processes, procedures, and work instructions. Specifically, licensee oversight failed to ensure contractors followed specific guidance in their procedures for both ensuring that the LFET tool was appropriately calibrated and areas unable to be scanned were tested utilizing ultrasonic testing [H.8].
Enforcement.
Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," requires, in part, that activities affecting quality be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, and drawings. Contrary to this requirement, the licensee failed to ensure an activity affecting quality was performed in accordance with procedure. Specifically, Callaway Procedure EDP-ZZ-01121, "Raw Water Systems Predictive Performance Program," step 4.1.1.C, states that ultrasonic thickness measurements shall be taken to confirm wall loss indications or areas that cannot be scanned with LFET. However, contractors failed to perform UT on areas that were not scanned with LFET, and also failed to properly calibrate the LFET probe. Because this violation was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) and was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201405200, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation in accordance with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000483/2014004-01, "Failure to Perform Nondestructive Testing on Essential Service Water Piping in Accordance with Procedures."
===.2 Failure to Verify Material Properties Prior to Installation
Introduction.
=
The inspectors reviewed a Green self-revealing finding involving failure to verify the proper material was installed in the plant during a modification to the circulating water pumps.
Description.
On July 17, 2014, the operating crew detected a degrading condenser vacuum. The operating crew determined that circulating water pump B was running with significantly reduced amperage. When circulating water pump B was removed from service, condenser vacuum returned to normal. Follow-up investigation by the licensee determined the pump had become separated from the motor due to a shaft coupling failure. The actual failure was a result of the cap screws that hold the coupling together failing. Starting in March 1997, the licensee conducted a modification to replace the sleeve coupling with an axially split coupling on each of the circulating water pump shafts. Circulating water pump A was modified in March 1997, pump B was modified in January 2004, and pump C was modified in October 2005. The axially split shaft coupling was held together by A574 nickel-plated alloy steel cap screws. In December 2012, circulating water pump A failed due to coupling issues and it was determined the nickel-plated cap screws were susceptible to general corrosion. The licensee decided an alternative cap screw was needed. They repaired the pump A coupling using new nickel-plated cap screws while they found an alternative. In March 2013, while circulating water pump B was out of service for overhaul, it was decided to replace the nickel-plated cap screws with different cap screws. The vendor was contacted and four options were presented to the licensee: a double nickel-plated A574 cap screw, a 410 stainless steel cap screw, and two different precipitation-hardened stainless steel options. The licensee stated that the double nickel-plated cap screws would take too long to fabricate and the precipitation-hardened cap screws would not be appropriate because of the increased susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking because the cooling water had a high concentration of chlorides, so they chose the 410 stainless steel option. Request for Resolution 201300416 determined that ASTM A276 410 stainless steel heat-treated cap screws with a yield strength of 140 ksi and a tensile strength of 186 ksi were required. This was because the composition of the cap screws would then be similar to the composition of the coupling and would be less susceptible to galvanic corrosion. Even though this metal is susceptible to stress corrosion cracking, they had success with this metal as part of the coupling and determined it would work best. After the circulating water pump failed in 2014, the licensee determined that the cap screws provided by the vendor had been over hardened and failed due to stress corrosion cracking. It was determined that the cap screws installed had a tensile strength of between 201 ksi and 221 ksi, which is significantly higher than the requested 186 ksi. Because of this, the material was more brittle and more susceptible to stress corrosion cracking than the material that was specified. Additionally, it was determined that the licensee does not have a process or requirement to verify that material with critical characteristics, such as yield or tensile strength specifications, that is used in nonsafety-related applications is verified prior to use.
Analysis.
The inspectors determined that failure to verify that the correct materials were installed in the plant during a modification was a performance deficiency. Request for Resolution 201300416 specified ASTM A276 410 stainless steel heat-treated cap screws with a yield strength of 140 ksi and a tensile strength of 186 ksi was required. Contrary to this, 410 stainless steel heat-treated cap screws with a tensile strength between 201 ksi and 221 ksi were installed without verifying that the correct material was being used. Because the tensile strength was much higher, and thus more brittle and susceptible to stress corrosion, these cap screws were not appropriate for the application. The inspectors evaluated the performance deficiency in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix B, "Issue Screening." This performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and adversely affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, failure to verify the material properties prior to installation resulted in failure of circulating water pump B and degrading condenser vacuum, necessitating operator action to ensure plant stability. The inspectors evaluated the finding using NRC Inspection Manual 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, "Initiating Event Screening Questions." The inspectors determined the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the transient initiator did not cause a reactor trip and the loss of mitigating equipment. This finding has an avoid complacency cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee relied on the vendor to provide the correct material and did not verify the cap screws met the material specification [H.12].
Enforcement.
This finding does not involve enforcement action because no violation of a regulatory requirement was identified. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201404722. Because this finding does not involve a violation and is of very low safety significance, it is identified as FIN 05000483/2014004-02, "Failure to Verify Material Properties Prior to Installation."
1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed two risk assessments performed by the licensee prior to changes in plant configuration and the risk management actions taken by the licensee in response to elevated risk: July 21, 2014, yellow risk due to turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump maintenance August 12, 2014, fire water tank A maintenance The inspectors verified that these risk assessments were performed timely and in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.65 (the Maintenance Rule) and plant procedures. The inspectors reviewed the accuracy and completeness of the licensee's risk assessments and verified that the licensee implemented appropriate risk management actions based on the result of the assessments.
The inspectors also observed portions of three emergent work activities that had the potential to cause an initiating event, to affect the functional capability of mitigating systems, or to impact barrier integrity: July 8, 2014, spent fuel building monorail hoist failure while receiving new fuel July 15, 2014, emergency diesel generator B compressor D pressure switch out of calibration August 6, 2014, essential service water train A through-wall pipe leak The inspectors verified that the licensee appropriately developed and followed a work plan for these activities. The inspectors verified that the licensee took precautions to minimize the impact of the work activities on unaffected structures, systems, and components. These activities constitute completion of five maintenance risk assessments and emergent work control inspection samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.13.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R15 Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed seven operability determinations and functionality assessments that the licensee performed for degraded or nonconforming structures, systems, or components: June 25, 2014, operability determination of emergency diesel generator B starting air system A leak, Callaway Action Request 201404221 July 9, 2014, functionality assessment of residual heat removal heat exchanger A room floor drain, Callaway Action Request 201404573 July 10, 2014, updated operability evaluation of component cooling water pumps bearing dark oil, Callaway Action Request 201306459 July 28, 2014, functionality assessment of firewater tank A dresser coupling failure, Callaway Action Request 201404981 July 30, 2014, operability determination of centrifugal charging pump train A, Callaway Action Request 201404961 August 6, 2014, operability determination of essential service water train B piping, Callaway Action Request 201405138 August 28, 2014, functionality assessment of fire water storage tank A heater failure, Callaway Action Request 201405570 The inspectors reviewed the timeliness and technical adequacy of the licensee's evaluations. Where the licensee determined the degraded structure, system, or component to be operable or functional, the inspectors verified that the licensee's compensatory measures were appropriate to provide reasonable assurance of operability or functionality. The inspectors verified that the licensee had considered the effect of other degraded conditions on the operability or functionality of the degraded structure, system, or component.
In addition, the inspectors reviewed the conditions surrounding the firewater tank A coupling failure; it was reported to have involved overpressurizing the fire header, but the evaluation only covered the coupling. The inspectors reviewed the revised evaluation when the licensee issued Callaway Action Request 201405872.
These activities constitute completion of seven operability and functionality review samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R18 Plant Modifications
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed two permanent plant modifications that affected risk-significant structures, systems, and components: August 6, 2014, Modification Package 14-0020, essential service water train A through-wall leak caps August 14, 2014, Modification Package 13-0023, reactor coolant system makeup for beyond design basis external event The inspectors reviewed the design and implementation of the modifications. The inspectors verified that work activities involved in implementing the modifications did not adversely impact operator actions that may be required in response to an emergency or other unplanned event. The inspectors verified that post-modification testing was adequate to establish the operability of the structures, systems, and components, as modified.
These activities constitute completion of two samples of permanent modifications, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.18.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1R19 Post-Maintenance Testing
a. Inspection Scope

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 meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy for being dispositioned as a non-cited violation.
The licensee dose assessment methods are inaccurate under some circumstances. Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50.54(q)(2) requires, in part, that power reactor licensees follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements of Appendix E to Part 50 and the standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b). Section 50.47(b)(9) requires that adequate systems, methods, and equipment for assessing the actual and potential offsite consequences of a radiological emergency condition are in use. Contrary to the above, between December 5, 2009, and April 23, 2014, Callaway Plant did not maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that fully met the standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b). Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain adequate systems, methods, and equipment for assessing the actual and potential offsite consequences of a radiological release to the environment. The licensee identified circumstances which could cause their dose assessment program to overestimate offsite doses by a factor of 24. This finding was assessed using Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix B, "Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process," and was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green). The finding was a failure to comply with NRC requirements, was not a loss of risk significant planning standard function, and was not a degraded planning standard function. The finding was determined not to degrade the planning standard function because the calculation was not inaccurate in its normal operating configuration, the circumstances in which the inaccurate calculation would be used were rare, a method existed for the operator to correct the error, and because the error could be readily detected from examination of the dose assessment report. The issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Corrective Action Request 201402814.
