          (0 pen) CDR 86-93 Process and Root Valves. On April 15, 1986, the resident
          inspectors attended a followup meeting with the licensee pertaining to
'
        actions taken into the investigation of the Valve Designator List (VDL) and
          the Quantity Tracking System (QTS). The results of the licensee's 2000
        valve walkdown were a comparison check of the design requirements to the
        warehouse records and the actual valves installed in the plant was also
          presented during this meeting. In conclusion the licensee presented actions
          to be taken as a result of their investigation to date. This item continues
          to remain open until final corrective action is implemented.

                                          4
  5. Allegations
    a.  During the course of an inspection, the inspector conducted a review of
          GPC Quality Concern 85-V-0490 and found that there were no records
          indicating that GPC went into the field and checked if a containment
          liner plate was dropped during installation, as was alleged. As a
          result, a followup by GPC revealed that a check was made but that the
          records were lost. GPC again investigated the allegation finding that
          no DRs were written and that no one had ever seen a faulty lift. GPC
          also obtained a letter from CB&I, the installing agency, that no
          incidents had ever taken place and that a correct installation lift was
          made. The inspector was satisfied with the corrective action and final
          disposition of the allegation.
    b.  Allegation RII 84-0169-04, Concerns with the Installation of the
          Containment Dome and/or Containment Spray Ring, Unit 2
          The Unit 1 & 2 Containment Dome lifts were classified as major lifts
          and were, therefore, required to have QC signoffs. Rigging and Setting
          records (HRP-43 and 54) were reviewed in detail. The inspector
          conducted personal interviews with the engineer in charge of the lifts
          and installations, the QC inspectors and the QC Supervisor, all of whom
          visually monitored the lifts and installations of both Containment
          Domes (1 & 2). The inspector reviewed movies taken of the Containment
          Dome lift and installation (setting in place).      In all cases not one
          person saw or heard of of any abnormalities with the lift or installa-
          tion, such as dropping or bumping the domes. A review of records did
          not reveal any abnormalities.
          The Containment #1 spray rings were installed in pieces, whereas
          Containment #2 spray rings were installed completely assembled as
          individual rings (6). All were installed from jack stands while the
          Containment Domes were on the ground. The spray ring lifts were not
          classified as major lifts, therefore, did not require QC record
          signoffs. The inspector conducted personal interviews with numerous QC
          inspectors who were present during the lifts in a random surveillance
          capacity. A telecon interview was conducted with the Field Engineer
          who was present and in charge of the installations.            Personal
          interviews were conducted with the two Craft Superintendents that were
          present and in charge of both lifts and installations.      In all cases
          not one person saw or heard of any abnormalities with the lifts and
          installations of any of the spray ring assemblies, such as dropping or
          bumping the rings. Allegation RII 84-0169-04 is considered unfounded
          and therefore closed.
      c.  On April 29, 1986, the inspector accompanied two craft workers for the
          administration of a lie-detector test. This action was in response to
          their request and with RII approval. The purpose of the accompaniment
          by the inspector was one of moral support, not of representation or
          technical support.    In attendance also were employees of the GPC
          Quality Concerns Program,
                                                                                    i

                                            5
  6.  General Construction Inspection - Units 1 & 2
      Periodic random surveillance inspections were made throughout this reporting
      period in the form of general type inspections in different areas of both
      facilities.    The areas were selected on the basis of the scheduled
      activities and were varied to provide wide coverage. Observations were made
      of activities in progress to note defective items or items of noncompliance
      with the required codes and regulatory requirements.
      On these inspections, particular note was made of the presence of quality
      control inspectors, supervisors, and evidence of quality control in the form
      of available process sheets, drawings, material identification, material
      protecticn, performance of tests, and housekeeping.          Interviews were
      conducted with craft personnel, supervisors, coordinators, quality control
      inspectors, and others as they were available in the work areas.
      The inspector reviewed numerous construction deviation reports to determine
      if requirements were met in the areas of documentation, action to resolve,
      justification, corrective action, and approval signatures in accordance
      with GPC Field Procedure No. GD-T-01.
      The inspector attended the following GPC meetings as an observer for
      informational purposes:
      -
            Board of Directors Meeting on April 4, 1986
      -
            Monthly Drug Program Administration Meeting on April 24, 1986
      -
            Vogtle Personnel Policy Meeting on April 25, 1986
      -
            RCS Overfill Event Meeting on April 18, 1986
      The inspector has conducted numerous meetings with the licensee with the
      purpose of attaining a more coordinated and real-time status of open items
      that are ready for NRC closure.      The licensee has implemented a folder
      concept whereby all backup documentation necessary for an NRC closure
        inspection will be available in one place. Publication of monthly status of
      CDR's Bulletins, and Circulars has been added to that of NRC items (e.g.,
        IFI,URI,etc.). Additional improvements are being considered.
      No violations or deviations were identified.
  7.    Fire Prevention / Protection and Housekeeping Measures - Units 1 & 2
        (42051C)
      The inspector observed fire prevention / protection measures throughout the
        inspection period. Welders were using welding permits with fire watches and
        extinguishers. Post indicator valves were being maintained in the open
        position. Fire fighting equipment is in its designated areas throughout the
        plant.

            as rapidly as practicable to avoid unnecessary accumulation of
            combustibles
      -
            Flammable liquids are stored in appropriate containers and in
            designated areas throughout the plant
      -
            Cutting and welding operations in progress have been authorized by an
            appropriate permit, combustibles have been moved away or safely
            covered, and a fire watch and extinguisher was posted as required
      -
            Fire protection / suppression equipment was provided and controlled in
            accordance with applicable requirements
      The inspector also conducted specific inspections of fire barriers
      consisting of sealant penetration installation activities in the diesel
      generating building.
      No violations or deviations were identified.
  8.  Structural Concrete - Unit 2 (47053C)
      a.  Procedure and Document Review
            The inspector reviewed and examined portions of the following
            procedures pertaining to the placement of concrete to determine whether
            they comply with applicable codes, standards, NRC Regulatory Guides and

    20.  Preoperational Test Program Implementation / Verification - Unit 1
          (70302) (71302)
          The inspector reviewed the present implementation of the preoperational test
          program.    Test program attributes inspected included review of
          administrative requirements, document control, documentation of major test
          events and deviations to procedures, operating practices, instrumentation
          calibrations, and correction of problems revealed by testing.
          Periodic inspections were conducted of Control Room Operations to assess
          plant condition and conduct of shift personnel. The inspector observed that
          Control Room operations were being conducted in an orderly and professional
          manner.    Shift personnel were knowledgeable of plant conditions, i.e.,
          ongoing testing, systems / equipment in or out of service, and alarm /
          annunciator status. In addition, the inspector observed shift turnovers on
          various occasions to verify the continuity of plant testing, operational
          problems and other pertinent plant information during the turnovers.
          Control Room logs were reviewed and various entries were discussed with
          operations personnel.

    Periodic facility tours were made to assess equipment and plant conditions,
    maintenance and preoperational activities in progress.        Schedules for
    program completion and progress reports were          routinely monitored.
    Discussions were held with responsible personnel, as they were available, to
    determine their knowledge of the preoperational program. The inspector
    reviewed numerous operation deviation reports to determine if requirements
    were met in the areas of documentation, action to resolve, justification,
    corrective action and approvals. Specific inspections conducted are listed
    below:
    a.  Flushing Program
          System
          Auxiliary Feedwater System

                Witnessing (70433)
                The inspector witnessed test portions of the Boric Acid Blender
                Preoperational Test Procedure listed below. These tests verified
                proper pump, valve, and tank level operation from the Control Room
                and Remote Shutdown Panel (as applicable) with the accompanying
                activation of annunciators.    The inspector attended pre-test
                briefings held by the test supervisor to observe the coordination
                and general knowledge of the procedure with all participants.
                Problems encountered during performance of the test were verified
                to be adequately documented, evaluated and dispositioned.

                                                            Preoperational Test
            Procedure Review (70338)
            The inspector reviewed the motor driven and steam driven Auxiliary
              Feedwater (AFW) System Preoperational Test Procedure (1-3AL-01 and
              1-3AL-02) and the Condensate Storage Tank Vacuum Degasifier System
            Preoperational Test Procedure 1(1-3AL-04) to verify technical
            adequacy. A review of licensee commitments from applicable FSAR
            Chapters, Regulatory Guide 1.68 and the Safety Evaluation Report
            was performed and compared with requirements contained in the test
              procedure. This included verifying that pertinent prerequisites
            were identified, initial test conditions and system status were
              specified, acceptance criteria were specified and performed with
            management approval indicated.
        (3) Chemical Volume & Control System (CVCS) Test - Preoperational Test
              Procedure Review (70333)
              The inspector reviewed the Boric Acid Blender Preoperational Test
              Procedure (1-3BG-04) to verify technical adequacy. A review of
              licensee commitments from applicable FSAR Chapters, Regulatory
              Guide 1.68 and the Safety Evaluation Report was performed and
              compared with requirements contained in the test procedure. This
              included verifying that pertinent prerequisites were identified,
              initial test conditions and system status were specified,
              acceptance criteria were specified, and performed with management
              approval indicated.
              Based on review of the above procedures and discussions with test
              supervisors the inspector noted that some preops do not contain
              Negative Logic Testing. Discussions with the licensee's Preop
              Procedure Group confirmed that this item had been previously
!            identified.  The licensee's Preop Procedure Group has identified
!            areas where Negative Logic Testing was not initially covered and
!            will be issuing them to be tested in the Common Annunciator
'
              Preoperational Test Procedure (1-300-15) due to be issued in
              approximately one (1) month. This matter will be identified as
              Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-02 " Review Implementation of
              Negative Logic Testing".
              Accumulator Preoperational Test Results Evaluation (70322) The
              inspector reviewed preliminary results of the Accumulator Blowdown
              Calculation and acceptance criteria per Preoperational Testing
l            Procedure 1-3BJ-03.
    c. A resident inspection was conducted of the event of April 9,1986,
        pertaini'ng to the licensee test personnel inadvertently filling
        the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) while performing the filling and
        venting of the Residual Heat Removal System (RHRS) Train A. The

              purpose of this inspection was to review the licensee's actions
  4          which led to the event so as to determine, first the root cause,
  ';
              and second that the licensee's report of the event properly
              identified the root cause and corrective action to                                                            prevent
              reoccurrence.
  !          The inspector reviewed and examined the following documents:
              -
                                Reactor Operator and Shift Supervisor Logs
              -
                              Memo Dated 4/9/86 from M. Aj1 uni, Operations Supervisor on Shift
                                (OSOS) to C. Meyer, Operation Superintendent (Acting) (0S)
              -
                                Letter Dated 4/11/86 from D. Schreiber, Operations Supervisor to
                              All Shift Personnel
              -
                              Operations Procedure No. 11011-1 "RHRS Alignment for Startup and
                                Normal Operation"

              -
                                SUM-37, Rev. 0 " Initial Test Program Conduct of Shift Operations"
              Background information indicated that the RHR Train "A" was being
              placed in service to obtain a RCS sample. The RCS Level was being
              maintained at mid nozzle (188' elevation) with the Reactor Vessel Head
  ;
              in place. The Test Supervisor (TS) was in the process of filling and
  '
              venting the RHRS to support system operation.
              During the                          inspection,              the inspector identified the following
              discrepancies:
  i
              -
                                An approved procedure was not used to fill and vent the RHRS
                                system but rather verbal instructions were given by the TS to
                                Operations personnel. It should be noted that the Start-up Manual
                                does not state that the TS is authorized to direct system valve
                                lineups by verbal instructions nor to what extent are verbal
                                instructions authorized. Also, the licensee does have plant
l
                                procedures in place for filling and venting the RHRS.
              -
                                Plant procedures 11011-1 and 13011-1 are the applicable procedures
                                for filling and venting the RHRS. However, these procedures do
                                not address filling and venting the section of pipe between Valves
,
!
l                              8701A & 8701B (Train "A"), which was the evolution being
                                performed. This in turn, led to the inadvertently filling of the
l                                RCS. Had these procedures been used it would have been discovered
l                                that these procedures were inadequate for filling and venting the                                                                                    ,
i
                                RHRS in that the section of pipe between the 8701A & 87013
:                                (Train"A") and the section of pipe between valves 8702A & 8702B
l                                (Train "B") were not covered.

                    -
                                  Per Procedure SUM-37 " Initial Test Program Conduct of Shift
                                  Operations" Paragraph 4.2 the Operations Supervisor On Shift
                                  (OSOS) is responsible for determining off-normal manner when not
                                  covered by a plant procedure or a test procedure; Paragraph 5.5.3
                                  states in part the TS is responsible for providing written
                                  instructions to the SS when the system condition requires off
                                  normal operation; & Paragraph 6.1,5,2 states "This instruction
                                  should be in the form of a Start-up Operating Instruction, or
                                  standing order. However, the SS responsibilities do not include
                                  asking the TS for written instructions when operating a system in
                                  an off normal condition.
                    The above condition is an example of failure to prescribe and use
                    appropriate procedures to control valve lineups for filling and venting
                    the RHRS, where improper performance could have detrimental effects on
                      safety-related equipment. This is considered to be in violation of
                      10CFR Part 50, Appendix 8, Criterion V, " Failure to Establish
                    Appropriate Procedures to Properly Control the Filling and Venting of
                    Safety-Related Systems",                          and will          be identified as Violation
                      50-424/86-31-01.
                    The inspector noted the following discrepancies pertaining to the
                      licensee's report of the event and corrective action:
                      -          The Memo Dated 4/9/86 from M. Aj1 uni, OSOS to C. Meyer, OS, which
                                  documented the event was incorrect. This memo contained a drawing
                                  of the valve arrangement which depicted an incorrect valve
                                  configuration (i.e.,                the 8701B valve is upstream of the 8701A
                                  valve, not downstream as shown in the memo). Consequently, the
                                  description detailing the sequence of events pertaining to the
                                  opening of valves is incorrect (i.e., the 87018 valve was the
                                  valve actually opened which led to the inadvertent filling of the
,
                                  RCS, not the 8701A as stated in the memo). Thus the memo did not
                                  properly document the correct sequence of events pertaining to
                                  which valves were open and in what sequence.
'
                      -
                                  The letter dated 4/11/86 from D. Schreiber, OSOS to All Shift
                                  Personnel hi-lited " Operator Error". It stated in part that plant
                                  operations is becoming more complex and that this requires each
                                  operator and supervisor to stop and analyze each action he takes
                                  for potential impact and expected as well as unexpected responses.

            A meeting was held with the licensee on 4/18/86 to discuss the above
            findings pertaining to the inadvertently filling of the RCS on 4/9/86.
            Several followup meetings were conducted by the licensee with the
            Resident Inspector's Office where the licensee presented a detailed
            report containing the sequence of events which led to the event, shift
            actions, followup action, NRC concerns / discussion, root cause, and
            summary. This report identified the root cause as lack of communica-
            tion.                                                                  !
            Subsequently on May 6,1986 the NRC Resident Inspector's Office was
            informed by the licensee that on May 5, 1986, the RCS was again
            inadvertently filled.      Background information indicated that the
            Chemical Volume Control System (CVCS) was being lined up in preparation
            for flushing the Reactor Coolant Pump Seals. The TS was in the process
            of filling and venting the CVCS to support system operation.      An
            approved procedure was not used to fill and vent the CVCS system but
            rather verbal instructions were given by the TS to operations
            personnel.      Plant Procedure 13006-1 is the applicable procedure for
              filling and venting the CVCS. This is another example of the above
            noted violation " Failure to Establish Appropriate Procedures to
            Properly Control the Filling and Venting of Safety-Related Systems".

      Commitments in the 765.XX series pertain to the implementation of
      ANSI N18.7-1976/ANS 3.2 " Administrative Controls and Quality
      Assurance for the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plants".
      During the review of commitment numbers 2706, 2707 and 728, the
      inspector identified that the i.mplementing documents were not
      correct to control the separation of Unit 1 and 2 upon licensing
      of Unit 1.    For commitment 2706, Procedure 1-500-01 " Initial Fuel
      Load Test Sequence" Step 5.20 does not satisfy this commitment.
      Commitment 728 incorrectly lists the sections of the actual
      procedures verified and appears to be short on scope in that only
      two systems out of twenty-three shared systems identified in FSAR
      Section 1.2.2.2. have been addressed. From discussions with the
      licensee, the overall program has been established to control the
      separation of Units 1 and 2, was developed by Southern Company
      Services, Inc. and access to the plan will be provided. This item
      will be tracked as Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-03 " Review
      Licensee Plan for Separation of Facilities and Systems Between
      Unit 1 Operation and Unit 2 Construction".
,
      Commitments 765.01 and 765.02 concern the designation of positions
!    requiring R0 and SR0 licenses and the establishment of minimum
!
      staffing levels. Site Procedure 10003-C " Manning the Shif t" and
l
      10010-C " Operator Qualification Program" were reviewed. In
      discussions with the Readiness Review Team, the inspector was
      informed that Procedure 10003-C was only verified to ensure
l
      minimum crew levels were specified, but no judgment was made as to
      adequacy of the numbers specified. The inspector reviewed various
!    source documents of minimum requirements such as 10 CFR 50.54(M),
,
      NUREG 0737 I.A.1.3, Generic Letter 82.12 and the Standard Review

      adequately discuss minimum manning for a defueled state. Final
      minimum shift crew will be established by Technical Specifications
      upon license issuance.      Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-04
      " Review Minimum Shift Crew Requirements as Implemented in
      Procedure 10003-C for a Defueled Status".
      In reviewing Commitment 765.06 it was noted that Procedure
      00005-C, Rev 1 " Overtime Authorization" allows approval at the
      department superintendent level for exceeding the guidelines
      instead of the General Manager - Vogtle Nuclear Operations. The
      procedure does not specify the paramount consideration that need
      be made prior to approval of excess overtime. The procedure does
      not control regular overtime to monitor the obtainment of a
      40-hour week objective.        The procedure references NUREG 0737
      I.A.I.3 which has been replaced by Generic Letter 82-12 and 82-16.
      In FSAR Change Submittal Number 22 the licensee has revised the
      level of authorization to coincide with the Site Procedure
      00005-C. It was noted that this issue will be resolved when the
      Technical Specifications are issued. IFI 50-424/86-31-05 " Review
      Implementation of Technical Specification Overtime Conflicts with
      Procedure 00005-C.
      In the review of Commitment 764.01 the inspector noted that the
      word " body" had been deleted from the phrase " independent review
      body". The listed implementing document, 00402-C " Licensing
      Document Change Request" was not correctly verified in that other
      procedure reviews were taking credit for implementing this
      commitment instead of the " independent review body", namely the
      Plant Review Bourd. Procedure 00402-C does not discuss the second
      " independent review body" entitled the " Safety Review Board". The
      inspector determined that this commitment had not been properly
      verified nor implemented.
      Procedure 00402-C was also noted as weak regarding the following:
      (a) Step 4.2.1 limits the PRB review for potential USQ's
            "Unreviewed Safety Questions" vice the full scope of a PRB
            review to advise on all matters related to nuclear safety.
      (b) The procedure does not coordinate reviews to the SRB.
      (c) Section 4.2.9 states in the note "The superintendent of
            Regulatory Compliance has 60 days from the date the NRC
            approved the change to ensure the change is fully implemented
            in the plant activities".

        The Readiness Review Team identified Procedure 00001-C " Plant

          procedure the inspector could not find where the procedure
          implemented the statement "Immediately prior to closure an
          inspection shall be conducted to assure cleanliness and the result
          of such inspection shall be documented "per Paragraph 5.12.10 of
          ANSI N18.7-1976. During the review of Maintenance Procedure No.
          20427-C, Rev. 0 " Maintenance Cleanliness and Housekeeping
          Control", the inspector noted that Paragraph 4.3.5.b.6 addressed
          that an inspection be conducted prior to closure. However, there
          was no requirement that the inspection results be documented.
          This matter will be identified as Inspector Followup Item
          No. 50-424/86-31-07 " Review Maintenance Procedure 20427-C for
          Incorporation of the ANSI Requirement to Document Closeout
          Inspection Results",                                                  i
    No violations or deviations were identified.
  b. During the inspection period, a Readiness Review, Module 17 " Raceways,"
    inspection was conducted by a RII based inspector. Certain cable
    trays, conduits and junction boxes installed in the containment building
    were examined.    It was discovered that a section of cable tray identified
    as IBE 502 TRAA, installed at elevation 184'2", and between column
    Nos. I and 2, above grating elevation 184', and below the electrical
    penetrations, was damaged. The damage appears to have been caused by
    personnel stepping, standing or walking in the tray.      The cables in
    this tray have been compressed such that they are depressed into the
    openings of the cable tray bottom and could possible be damaged.
    Specification No. X3AR01, Section E8.7.1, paragraph 5 states " Cable
    trays shall not be used as walkways or working platforms. Where trays
    are so located that such use is possible or might be attempted, it
    shall be prohibited by clear and conspicuous signs, and prevented, if
    necessary, by suitable physical barriers."
    Contrary to this, on April 17, 1986, cable tray section 1BE 502 TRAA
    was found to be damaged as evidenced by the distorted shape of the
    bottom and sides. The damaged tray is located such that it should have
    been protected by one of the methods defined in paragraph 5 of
    Specification No. X3AR01, Section E8.7.1.
    This is considered to be in violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,
    Criterion V, " Failure to Follow Established Appropriate Procedure to
    Properly Protect Installed Equipment / Components" and will be identified
    as violation 50-424/86-31-08.

5. Allegations

a. During the course of an inspection, the inspector conducted a review of

GPC Quality Concern 85-V-0490 and found that there were no records

indicating that GPC went into the field and checked if a containment

liner plate was dropped during installation, as was alleged. As a

result, a followup by GPC revealed that a check was made but that the

records were lost. GPC again investigated the allegation finding that

no DRs were written and that no one had ever seen a faulty lift. GPC

also obtained a letter from CB&I, the installing agency, that no

incidents had ever taken place and that a correct installation lift was

made. The inspector was satisfied with the corrective action and final

disposition of the allegation.

b. Allegation RII 84-0169-04, Concerns with the Installation of the

Containment Dome and/or Containment Spray Ring, Unit 2

The Unit 1 & 2 Containment Dome lifts were classified as major lifts

and were, therefore, required to have QC signoffs. Rigging and Setting

records (HRP-43 and 54) were reviewed in detail. The inspector

conducted personal interviews with the engineer in charge of the lifts

and installations, the QC inspectors and the QC Supervisor, all of whom

visually monitored the lifts and installations of both Containment

Domes (1 & 2). The inspector reviewed movies taken of the Containment

Dome lift and installation (setting in place). In all cases not one

person saw or heard of of any abnormalities with the lift or installa-

tion, such as dropping or bumping the domes. A review of records did

not reveal any abnormalities.

The Containment #1 spray rings were installed in pieces, whereas

Containment #2 spray rings were installed completely assembled as

individual rings (6). All were installed from jack stands while the

Containment Domes were on the ground. The spray ring lifts were not

classified as major lifts, therefore, did not require QC record

signoffs. The inspector conducted personal interviews with numerous QC

inspectors who were present during the lifts in a random surveillance

capacity. A telecon interview was conducted with the Field Engineer

who was present and in charge of the installations. Personal

interviews were conducted with the two Craft Superintendents that were

present and in charge of both lifts and installations. In all cases

not one person saw or heard of any abnormalities with the lifts and

installations of any of the spray ring assemblies, such as dropping or

bumping the rings. Allegation RII 84-0169-04 is considered unfounded

and therefore closed.

c. On April 29, 1986, the inspector accompanied two craft workers for the

administration of a lie-detector test. This action was in response to

their request and with RII approval. The purpose of the accompaniment

by the inspector was one of moral support, not of representation or

technical support. In attendance also were employees of the GPC

Quality Concerns Program,

6. General Construction Inspection - Units 1 & 2

Periodic random surveillance inspections were made throughout this reporting

period in the form of general type inspections in different areas of both

facilities. The areas were selected on the basis of the scheduled

activities and were varied to provide wide coverage. Observations were made

of activities in progress to note defective items or items of noncompliance

with the required codes and regulatory requirements.

On these inspections, particular note was made of the presence of quality

control inspectors, supervisors, and evidence of quality control in the form

of available process sheets, drawings, material identification, material

protecticn, performance of tests, and housekeeping. Interviews were

conducted with craft personnel, supervisors, coordinators, quality control

inspectors, and others as they were available in the work areas.

The inspector reviewed numerous construction deviation reports to determine

if requirements were met in the areas of documentation, action to resolve,

justification, corrective action, and approval signatures in accordance

with GPC Field Procedure No. GD-T-01.

The inspector attended the following GPC meetings as an observer for

informational purposes:

-

Board of Directors Meeting on April 4, 1986

-

Monthly Drug Program Administration Meeting on April 24, 1986

-

Vogtle Personnel Policy Meeting on April 25, 1986

-

RCS Overfill Event Meeting on April 18, 1986

The inspector has conducted numerous meetings with the licensee with the

purpose of attaining a more coordinated and real-time status of open items

that are ready for NRC closure. The licensee has implemented a folder

concept whereby all backup documentation necessary for an NRC closure

inspection will be available in one place. Publication of monthly status of

CDR's Bulletins, and Circulars has been added to that of NRC items (e.g.,

IFI,URI,etc.). Additional improvements are being considered.

No violations or deviations were identified.

20. Preoperational Test Program Implementation / Verification - Unit 1

(70302) (71302)

The inspector reviewed the present implementation of the preoperational test

program. Test program attributes inspected included review of

administrative requirements, document control, documentation of major test

events and deviations to procedures, operating practices, instrumentation

calibrations, and correction of problems revealed by testing.

Periodic inspections were conducted of Control Room Operations to assess

plant condition and conduct of shift personnel. The inspector observed that

Control Room operations were being conducted in an orderly and professional

manner. Shift personnel were knowledgeable of plant conditions, i.e.,

ongoing testing, systems / equipment in or out of service, and alarm /

annunciator status. In addition, the inspector observed shift turnovers on

various occasions to verify the continuity of plant testing, operational

problems and other pertinent plant information during the turnovers.

Control Room logs were reviewed and various entries were discussed with

operations personnel.

Periodic facility tours were made to assess equipment and plant conditions,

maintenance and preoperational activities in progress. Schedules for

program completion and progress reports were routinely monitored.

Discussions were held with responsible personnel, as they were available, to

determine their knowledge of the preoperational program. The inspector

reviewed numerous operation deviation reports to determine if requirements

were met in the areas of documentation, action to resolve, justification,

corrective action and approvals. Specific inspections conducted are listed

below:

a. Flushing Program

System

Auxiliary Feedwater System

Spent Fuel Pool Cooling System

b. Preoperational Tests

(1) Chemical & Volume Control System Test (CVCS) Preoperational Test

Witnessing (70433)

The inspector witnessed test portions of the Boric Acid Blender

Preoperational Test Procedure listed below. These tests verified

proper pump, valve, and tank level operation from the Control Room

and Remote Shutdown Panel (as applicable) with the accompanying

activation of annunciators. The inspector attended pre-test

briefings held by the test supervisor to observe the coordination

and general knowledge of the procedure with all participants.

Problems encountered during performance of the test were verified

to be adequately documented, evaluated and dispositioned.

(2) Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) System Test -

Preoperational Test

Procedure Review (70338)

The inspector reviewed the motor driven and steam driven Auxiliary

Feedwater (AFW) System Preoperational Test Procedure (1-3AL-01 and

1-3AL-02) and the Condensate Storage Tank Vacuum Degasifier System

Preoperational Test Procedure 1(1-3AL-04) to verify technical

adequacy. A review of licensee commitments from applicable FSAR

Chapters, Regulatory Guide 1.68 and the Safety Evaluation Report

was performed and compared with requirements contained in the test

procedure. This included verifying that pertinent prerequisites

were identified, initial test conditions and system status were

specified, acceptance criteria were specified and performed with

management approval indicated.

(3) Chemical Volume & Control System (CVCS) Test - Preoperational Test

Procedure Review (70333)

The inspector reviewed the Boric Acid Blender Preoperational Test

Procedure (1-3BG-04) to verify technical adequacy. A review of

licensee commitments from applicable FSAR Chapters, Regulatory

Guide 1.68 and the Safety Evaluation Report was performed and

compared with requirements contained in the test procedure. This

included verifying that pertinent prerequisites were identified,

initial test conditions and system status were specified,

acceptance criteria were specified, and performed with management

approval indicated.

Based on review of the above procedures and discussions with test

supervisors the inspector noted that some preops do not contain

Negative Logic Testing. Discussions with the licensee's Preop

Procedure Group confirmed that this item had been previously

! identified. The licensee's Preop Procedure Group has identified

! areas where Negative Logic Testing was not initially covered and

! will be issuing them to be tested in the Common Annunciator

'

Preoperational Test Procedure (1-300-15) due to be issued in

approximately one (1) month. This matter will be identified as

Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-02 " Review Implementation of

Negative Logic Testing".

Accumulator Preoperational Test Results Evaluation (70322) The

inspector reviewed preliminary results of the Accumulator Blowdown

Calculation and acceptance criteria per Preoperational Testing

l Procedure 1-3BJ-03.

c. A resident inspection was conducted of the event of April 9,1986,

pertaini'ng to the licensee test personnel inadvertently filling

the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) while performing the filling and

venting of the Residual Heat Removal System (RHRS) Train A. The

. . - _ .-

.

.

20

purpose of this inspection was to review the licensee's actions

4 which led to the event so as to determine, first the root cause,

';

and second that the licensee's report of the event properly

identified the root cause and corrective action to prevent

reoccurrence.

! The inspector reviewed and examined the following documents:

-

Reactor Operator and Shift Supervisor Logs

-

Memo Dated 4/9/86 from M. Aj1 uni, Operations Supervisor on Shift

(OSOS) to C. Meyer, Operation Superintendent (Acting) (0S)

-

Letter Dated 4/11/86 from D. Schreiber, Operations Supervisor to

All Shift Personnel

-

Operations Procedure No. 11011-1 "RHRS Alignment for Startup and

Normal Operation"

-

Operations Procedure No. 13011-1 " Residual Heat Removal System"

-

SUM-3, Rev. 3 "Preoperational Test Program Organization,

Responsibilities, and Interfaces"

-

SUM-12C, Rev. 2 "Preoperational Test Implementation"

-

SUM-37, Rev. 0 " Initial Test Program Conduct of Shift Operations"

Background information indicated that the RHR Train "A" was being

placed in service to obtain a RCS sample. The RCS Level was being

maintained at mid nozzle (188' elevation) with the Reactor Vessel Head

in place. The Test Supervisor (TS) was in the process of filling and

'

venting the RHRS to support system operation.

During the inspection, the inspector identified the following

discrepancies:

i

-

An approved procedure was not used to fill and vent the RHRS

system but rather verbal instructions were given by the TS to

Operations personnel. It should be noted that the Start-up Manual

does not state that the TS is authorized to direct system valve

lineups by verbal instructions nor to what extent are verbal

instructions authorized. Also, the licensee does have plant

l

procedures in place for filling and venting the RHRS.

-

Plant procedures 11011-1 and 13011-1 are the applicable procedures

for filling and venting the RHRS. However, these procedures do

not address filling and venting the section of pipe between Valves

,

!

l 8701A & 8701B (Train "A"), which was the evolution being

performed. This in turn, led to the inadvertently filling of the

l RCS. Had these procedures been used it would have been discovered

l that these procedures were inadequate for filling and venting the ,

i

RHRS in that the section of pipe between the 8701A & 87013

(Train"A") and the section of pipe between valves 8702A & 8702B

l (Train "B") were not covered.

Per Procedure SUM-37 " Initial Test Program Conduct of Shift

Operations" Paragraph 4.2 the Operations Supervisor On Shift

(OSOS) is responsible for determining off-normal manner when not

covered by a plant procedure or a test procedure; Paragraph 5.5.3

states in part the TS is responsible for providing written

instructions to the SS when the system condition requires off

normal operation; & Paragraph 6.1,5,2 states "This instruction

should be in the form of a Start-up Operating Instruction, or

standing order. However, the SS responsibilities do not include

asking the TS for written instructions when operating a system in

an off normal condition.

The above condition is an example of failure to prescribe and use

appropriate procedures to control valve lineups for filling and venting

the RHRS, where improper performance could have detrimental effects on

safety-related equipment. This is considered to be in violation of

10CFR Part 50, Appendix 8, Criterion V, " Failure to Establish

Appropriate Procedures to Properly Control the Filling and Venting of

Safety-Related Systems", and will be identified as Violation

50-424/86-31-01.

The inspector noted the following discrepancies pertaining to the

licensee's report of the event and corrective action:

- The Memo Dated 4/9/86 from M. Aj1 uni, OSOS to C. Meyer, OS, which

documented the event was incorrect. This memo contained a drawing

of the valve arrangement which depicted an incorrect valve

configuration (i.e., the 8701B valve is upstream of the 8701A

valve, not downstream as shown in the memo). Consequently, the

description detailing the sequence of events pertaining to the

opening of valves is incorrect (i.e., the 87018 valve was the

valve actually opened which led to the inadvertent filling of the

,

RCS, not the 8701A as stated in the memo). Thus the memo did not

properly document the correct sequence of events pertaining to

which valves were open and in what sequence.

'

-

The letter dated 4/11/86 from D. Schreiber, OSOS to All Shift

Personnel hi-lited " Operator Error". It stated in part that plant

operations is becoming more complex and that this requires each

operator and supervisor to stop and analyze each action he takes

for potential impact and expected as well as unexpected responses.

.

!

It identified two (2) examples in recent months, one being where

equipment was in operation without cooling water and the second ,

<

being the RCS was inadvertently filled. This did not properly

l identify the root cause nor did it address corrective action to

'

prevent recurrence.

A meeting was held with the licensee on 4/18/86 to discuss the above

findings pertaining to the inadvertently filling of the RCS on 4/9/86.

Several followup meetings were conducted by the licensee with the

Resident Inspector's Office where the licensee presented a detailed

report containing the sequence of events which led to the event, shift

actions, followup action, NRC concerns / discussion, root cause, and

summary. This report identified the root cause as lack of communica-

tion.  !

Subsequently on May 6,1986 the NRC Resident Inspector's Office was

informed by the licensee that on May 5, 1986, the RCS was again

inadvertently filled. Background information indicated that the

Chemical Volume Control System (CVCS) was being lined up in preparation

for flushing the Reactor Coolant Pump Seals. The TS was in the process

of filling and venting the CVCS to support system operation. An

approved procedure was not used to fill and vent the CVCS system but

rather verbal instructions were given by the TS to operations

personnel. Plant Procedure 13006-1 is the applicable procedure for

filling and venting the CVCS. This is another example of the above

noted violation " Failure to Establish Appropriate Procedures to

Properly Control the Filling and Venting of Safety-Related Systems".

(50-424/86-31-01)

21. Plant Procedures - Unit 1 and 2 (42400B)

This inspection consists of a procedural review to verify that administra-

tive controls are established and implemented to control safety related

operations. Procedures are selected at random and reviewed for technical

adequacy and incorporation of requirements as appropriate for the proper

operation of a nuclear facility in the startup and operational phase. The

Commitments in the 765.XX series pertain to the implementation of

ANSI N18.7-1976/ANS 3.2 " Administrative Controls and Quality

Assurance for the Operational Phase of Nuclear Power Plants".

During the review of commitment numbers 2706, 2707 and 728, the

inspector identified that the i.mplementing documents were not

correct to control the separation of Unit 1 and 2 upon licensing

of Unit 1. For commitment 2706, Procedure 1-500-01 " Initial Fuel

Load Test Sequence" Step 5.20 does not satisfy this commitment.

Commitment 728 incorrectly lists the sections of the actual

procedures verified and appears to be short on scope in that only

two systems out of twenty-three shared systems identified in FSAR

Section 1.2.2.2. have been addressed. From discussions with the

licensee, the overall program has been established to control the

separation of Units 1 and 2, was developed by Southern Company

Services, Inc. and access to the plan will be provided. This item

will be tracked as Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-03 " Review

Licensee Plan for Separation of Facilities and Systems Between

Unit 1 Operation and Unit 2 Construction".

,

Commitments 765.01 and 765.02 concern the designation of positions

! requiring R0 and SR0 licenses and the establishment of minimum

!

staffing levels. Site Procedure 10003-C " Manning the Shif t" and

l

10010-C " Operator Qualification Program" were reviewed. In

discussions with the Readiness Review Team, the inspector was

informed that Procedure 10003-C was only verified to ensure

l

minimum crew levels were specified, but no judgment was made as to

adequacy of the numbers specified. The inspector reviewed various

! source documents of minimum requirements such as 10 CFR 50.54(M),

,

NUREG 0737 I.A.1.3, Generic Letter 82.12 and the Standard Review

Plan. The inspector determined that the procedure does not

adequately discuss minimum manning for a defueled state. Final

minimum shift crew will be established by Technical Specifications

upon license issuance. Inspector Followup Item 50-424/86-31-04

" Review Minimum Shift Crew Requirements as Implemented in

Procedure 10003-C for a Defueled Status".

In reviewing Commitment 765.06 it was noted that Procedure

00005-C, Rev 1 " Overtime Authorization" allows approval at the

department superintendent level for exceeding the guidelines

instead of the General Manager - Vogtle Nuclear Operations. The

procedure does not specify the paramount consideration that need

be made prior to approval of excess overtime. The procedure does

not control regular overtime to monitor the obtainment of a

40-hour week objective. The procedure references NUREG 0737

I.A.I.3 which has been replaced by Generic Letter 82-12 and 82-16.

In FSAR Change Submittal Number 22 the licensee has revised the

level of authorization to coincide with the Site Procedure

00005-C. It was noted that this issue will be resolved when the

Technical Specifications are issued. IFI 50-424/86-31-05 " Review

Implementation of Technical Specification Overtime Conflicts with

Procedure 00005-C.

In the review of Commitment 764.01 the inspector noted that the

word " body" had been deleted from the phrase " independent review

body". The listed implementing document, 00402-C " Licensing

Document Change Request" was not correctly verified in that other

procedure reviews were taking credit for implementing this

commitment instead of the " independent review body", namely the

Plant Review Bourd. Procedure 00402-C does not discuss the second

" independent review body" entitled the " Safety Review Board". The

inspector determined that this commitment had not been properly

verified nor implemented.

Procedure 00402-C was also noted as weak regarding the following:

(a) Step 4.2.1 limits the PRB review for potential USQ's

"Unreviewed Safety Questions" vice the full scope of a PRB

review to advise on all matters related to nuclear safety.

(b) The procedure does not coordinate reviews to the SRB.

(c) Section 4.2.9 states in the note "The superintendent of

Regulatory Compliance has 60 days from the date the NRC

approved the change to ensure the change is fully implemented

in the plant activities".

procedure the inspector could not find where the procedure

implemented the statement "Immediately prior to closure an

inspection shall be conducted to assure cleanliness and the result

of such inspection shall be documented "per Paragraph 5.12.10 of

ANSI N18.7-1976. During the review of Maintenance Procedure No.

20427-C, Rev. 0 " Maintenance Cleanliness and Housekeeping

Control", the inspector noted that Paragraph 4.3.5.b.6 addressed

that an inspection be conducted prior to closure. However, there

was no requirement that the inspection results be documented.

This matter will be identified as Inspector Followup Item

No. 50-424/86-31-07 " Review Maintenance Procedure 20427-C for

Incorporation of the ANSI Requirement to Document Closeout

Inspection Results", i

No violations or deviations were identified.

b. During the inspection period, a Readiness Review, Module 17 " Raceways,"

inspection was conducted by a RII based inspector. Certain cable

trays, conduits and junction boxes installed in the containment building

were examined. It was discovered that a section of cable tray identified

as IBE 502 TRAA, installed at elevation 184'2", and between column

Nos. I and 2, above grating elevation 184', and below the electrical

penetrations, was damaged. The damage appears to have been caused by

personnel stepping, standing or walking in the tray. The cables in

this tray have been compressed such that they are depressed into the

openings of the cable tray bottom and could possible be damaged.

Specification No. X3AR01, Section E8.7.1, paragraph 5 states " Cable

trays shall not be used as walkways or working platforms. Where trays

are so located that such use is possible or might be attempted, it
