The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of the licensee's risk-informed inservice inspection program (which is their alternative to portions of the ASME Code, Section XI inservice inspection program approved in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(z)) for the failure to properly expand the scope of additional welds to inspect. Specifically, a rejectable flaw on a pipe weld in the pressurizer spray line was identified during refueling outage 1R19 while performing an ultrasonic examination. The licensee expanded the inspection scope by four additional welds, but failed to select those assigned with the same degradation. For immediate corrective actions, the licensee identified and intended to inspect four additional welds assigned to the same degradation mechanism as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50920222. The licensee's failure to properly expand the weld examination scope as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to select additional welds that were susceptible to the same degradation mechanism as weld WIB-378 placed the plant at an increased risk due to the potential of having an active degradation mechanism that could affect additional components. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," dated June 19, 2012, the inspectors determined the finding screened as having very low significance (Green) because:  (1) it was not a design deficiency; (2) did not represent a loss of system and/or function; (3) did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time; and (4)did not result in the loss of a high safety-significant non-technical specification train. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with change management because leaders failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing the change to a risk-informed inservice inspection program. The implementing procedure failed to include the reference to "degradation mechanism" allowing for a misinterpretation of weld expansion requirements once a flaw was identified in a weld WIB-378 [H.3].  (Section 1R08)  SL-IV. The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.21, "Medical Examination," for the licensee's failure to ensure that a medical examination by a physician to determine satisfaction of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1) requirements was conducted every 2 years for two licensed senior operators. Specifically, one licensed senior operator exceeded the two-year medical examination requirement by approximately 16 months between November 27, 2015, and April 6, 2017. A second licensed senior operator exceeded the 2-year medical examination requirement by 4 months between November 19, 2016, and April 6, 2017. As a corrective action, the licensee has conducted the required medical examination for one senior operator and initiated a license termination request for the other senior operator. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50912407. The failure of the facility licensee to conduct required biennial medical examinations for two licensed senior operators was a performance deficiency. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to comply with medical testing requirements for two operators compromised the facility licensee's ability to assure conformance to medical standards, detect non-conforming medical conditions, and report non-conformances to the NRC. This performance deficiency was determined to be Severity Level IV because it fits the Severity Level IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples:  Licensed Reactor Operators."  This section states, "Severity Level IV violations involve, for example - (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 3.4," "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition."  No cross-cutting aspect was assigned because the violation was processed using traditional enforcement.  (Section 1R11.3)  SL-IV. The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.25, "Incapacitation Because of Disability or Illness," for the licensee's failure to notify the NRC within 30 days of a change to one licensed senior operator's medical condition. Specifically, the licensed senior operator developed a permanent medical condition which caused him to permanently leave the site on December 1, 2014, and transition into a long-term disability program on April 23, 2015. The licensee did not notify the NRC of this change in medical condition. As a corrective action, the licensee initiated a license termination request for the affected operator, effective April 6, 2017. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50912407. The failure of the facility licensee to notify the NRC within 30 days of a change in a licensed senior operator's medical condition was a performance deficiency. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to report changes in a licensed senior operator's medical condition prevented the NRC from taking action to issue either a license amendment or termination, as appropriate. This performance deficiency was determined to be Severity Level IV because it fits the Severity Level IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators."  This section states, "Severity Level IV violations involve, for example (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 3.4," "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition."  No cross-cutting aspect was assigned because the violation was processed using traditional enforcement.  (Section 1R11.3)

The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Revision 11. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. This resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in-service shutdown cooling residual heat removal heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in reactor coolant system temperature during refueling outage 1R20. The inspectors determined that PG&E's failure to follow AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Section 5.14 "Performing Work on Posted Protected Equipment," was a performance deficiency within PG&E's ability to foresee and correct. This performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the configuration control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the loss of cooling flow to the RHR heat exchanger while in shutdown cooling mode resulted in a perturbation in RCS temperature of approximately 8 degrees Fahrenheit. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process," and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) since it did not represent a loss of system safety function of at least a single train for greater than four hours. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with conservative bias because PG&E personnel did not use decision-making practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, despite being authorized to close component cooling water cross connect valves by the work control process, PG&E personnel did not question the impact of their actions on shutdown cooling [H.14].  (Section 1R20)5

On June 23, 2017, the inspectors completed an inspection of the station's off-site and alternate-ac power systems. The inspectors inspected the material condition of these systems, including transformers and other switchyard equipment to verify that plant features and procedures were appropriate for operation and continued availability of off-site and alternate-ac power systems. The inspectors reviewed outstanding work orders and open condition reports for these systems. The inspectors walked down the switchyard to observe the material condition of equipment providing off-site power sources. The inspectors assessed corrective actions for identified degraded conditions and verified that the licensee had considered the degraded conditions in its risk evaluations and had established appropriate compensatory measures. The inspectors verified that the licensee's procedures included appropriate measures to monitor and maintain availability and reliability of the off-site and alternate-ac power systems. These activities constituted one sample of summer readiness of off-site and alternate-ac power systems, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.01.

.


=====Description.=====
=====Description.=====
On November 8, 2001, the licensee received NRC approval to implement a risk-informed inservice inspection program for ASME Code, Class 1 and 2 piping welds. The risk-informed inservice inspection program was developed in accordance with Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Topical Report TR-112657, "Revised Risk-Informed Inservice Inspection Evaluation," Revision B-A. During refueling outage 1R19, the licensee was completing the remaining inspections for the third 10-year ISI interval as required by ASME Code, Section XI. During an ultrasonic examination, a rejectable flaw was identified in the pressurizer spray line, weld WIB-378. The results and corrective actions were documented in Notification 50809162. The risk-informed inservice inspection program assigns a risk profile of each Class 1 and 2 piping weld based on risk significance, consequence of failure, and failure potential. The purpose of assigning a failure potential is to differentiate welds that are affected by a specific degradation mechanism. Topical Report TR-112657 provides the guidance to assign a degradation mechanism. Welds that do not meet the specific criteria are assigned to a failure potential without a degradation mechanism. When a flaw is identified, additional examinations are required to be performed to determine if an active degradation mechanism exist. Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS, "Additional, Supplemental, and Successive Inspections," Revision 6, implements the guidance of additional inspections per Topical Report TR-112657. Section 4.2.6, states the following: "All other examinations performed on piping welds per the risk-informed ISI Program Plan that detect flaws or relevant conditions require additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions. The number of additional examinations shall be equivalent to the number examined initially for the current refueling outage, and shall include high risk-significant as well as medium risk-significant elements (if needed) to reach the required number of additional elements." The inspector noted that the term "elements" referred to selected welds per EPRI guidance. The inspector also noted that this procedural requirement was missing the reference to "degradation mechanism" in addition to "root cause conditions" as provided by Topical Report TR-112657. Notification 50809162 documents that a flaw was identified in weld WIB-378. Per the risk-informed inservice inspection program, this weld has a failure potential assigned to the degradation mechanism of Thermal Stratification, Cycling, and Striping (TASCS).
On November 8, 2001, the licensee received NRC approval to implement a risk-informed inservice inspection program for ASME Code
, Class 1 and 2 piping welds. The risk-informed inservice inspection program was developed in accordance with Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Topical Report TR
-112657, "Revised Risk-Informed Inservice Inspection Evaluation," Revision B
-A. During refueling outage 1R19, the licensee was completing the remaining inspections for the third 10
-year ISI interval as required by ASME Code, Section XI. During an ultrasonic examination, a rejectable flaw was identified in the pressurizer spray line, weld WIB

-112657 provides the guidance to assign a degradation mechanism. Welds that do not meet the specific criteria are assigned to a failure potential without a degradation mechanism. When a flaw is identified, additional examinations are required to be performed to determine if an active degradation mechanism exist.


The licensee expanded the inspection scope to four additional examinations as required by Section 4.2.6 of Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS. The inspector checked whether the selected welds had the same degradation mechanism as Weld WIB-378 and identified that none of them had been assigned with TASCS as a degradation mechanism per their failure potential designation. The inspector concluded that although the licensee had correctly expanded the number of weld examinations it had failed to select those susceptible to TASCS.  
Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS, "Additional, Supplemental
, and Successive Inspections," Revision 6, implements the guidance of additional inspections per Topical Report TR-112657. Section 4.2.6, states the following
: "All other examination s performed on piping welds per the risk-informed ISI Program Plan that detect flaws or relevant conditions require additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions. The number of additional examinations shall be equivalent to the number examined initially for the current refueling outage, and shall include high risk-significant as well as medium risk
-significant elements (if needed) to reach the required number of additional elements
." The inspector noted that the term "elements" referred to selected welds per EPRI guidance. The inspector also noted that this procedural requirement was missing the reference to "degradation mechanism" in addition to "root cause conditions" as provided by Topical Report TR
-112657. Notification 50809162 documents that a flaw was identified in weld WIB
-378. Per the risk-informed inservice inspection program, this weld has a failure potential assigned to the degradation mechanism of Thermal Stratification, Cycling, and Striping (TASCS).
 
The licensee expanded the inspection scope to four additional examinations as required by Section 4.2.6 of Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS. The inspector checked whether the selected welds had the same degradation mechanism as Weld WIB
-378 and identified that none of them had been assigned with TASCS as a degradation mechanism per their failure potential designation. The inspector concluded that although the licensee had correctly expanded the number of weld examinations it had failed to select those susceptible to TASCS.


=====Analysis.=====
=====Analysis.=====
The licensee's failure to properly expand the weld examination scope as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to select additional welds that were susceptible to the same degradation mechanism as weld WIB-378 placed the plant at an increased risk due to the potential of having an active degradation mechanism that could affect additional components. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," dated June 19, 2012, the inspector determined the finding screened as having very low significance (Green) because:  it was not a design deficiency; did not represent a loss of system and/or function; did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time; and did not result in the loss of a high safety-significant, non-technical specification train. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance associated with Change Management because leaders failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing the change to a risk-informed inservice inspection program. The implementing procedure failed to include the reference to "degradation mechanism" allowing for a misinterpretation of weld expansion requirements once a flaw was identified in weld WIB-378 [H.3].

Title 10 CFR 50.55a(z), states in part, that alternatives to the requirements of this section must be submitted and authorized prior to implementation. The licensee received prior approval to implement a risk-informed inservice inspection process developed based on the EPRI Topical Report TR-112657, Revision B-A, as an alternative to applicable requirements of Section XI of the ASME Code. The risk-informed inservice inspection process requires that when flaws or relevant conditions are detected, additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions or degradation mechanism are required. Contrary to the above, from November 1, 2015, until May 17, 2017, the licensee failed to conduct the required additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions or degradation mechanism after flaws or relevant conditions were detected. Specifically, the licensee completed ultrasonic examinations of four additional pipe welds, but failed to select those that were assigned the same degradation mechanism as pipe weld WIB-378. As part of their corrective actions, the licensee, at the time of the inspection, identified and intended to inspect four additional welds assigned to the same degradation mechanism as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program. Because the violation was of very low safety significance and it was entered into the corrective action program as Notification 50920222, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2a of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

To assess the performance effectiveness of the licensed operator requalification program, the inspectors reviewed both the written examination and operating test quality and observed licensee administration of an annual requalification test while on-site. The operating tests observed included multiple administrations of four job performance measures and two scenarios that were used in the current biennial requalification cycle. These observations allowed the inspectors to assess the licensee's effectiveness in conducting the operating test to ensure operator mastery of the training program content and to determine if feedback of performance analyses into the requalification training program was being accomplished.

. The inspector s identified a Severity Level IV (SL-IV) non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 55.21, "Medical Examination," for the licensee's failure to ensure that a medical examination by a physician to determine satisfaction of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1) requirements was conducted every two years for two licensed senior operators.

=====Description.=====
The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV (SL-IV) non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 55.21, "Medical Examination," for the licensee's failure to ensure that a medical examination by a physician to determine satisfaction of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1) requirements was conducted every two years for two licensed senior operators.
On April 5, 2017, an NRC inspector identified that a currently licensed senior operator last had a 10 CFR 55.21 required medical examination on November 27, 2013, a span of 40 months. On March 12, 2014, the facility licensee informed the NRC by letter that this operator had developed a "temporary medical condition," and had been administratively removed from engaging in licensed activities. On December 1, 2014, the individual left the site permanently, ultimately transitioning into the licensee's long
-term disability program on April 23, 2015. Following the notification of March 12, 2014, no further communication was submitted to the NRC regarding this operator's status until the date of this inspection, and his license remained active. Following NRC identification, the licensee issued Notification 50911467 on April 6, 2017, to initiate termination of the operator's license. No licensed duties were performed by the operator subsequent to the expiration of his 2-year medical examination on November 26, 2015.

The individual received a medical examination on November 19, 2014, but did not receive a subsequent biennial medical examination until April 6, 2017, a period of two years and four months. During this time, the operator was periodically evaluated for a medical condition which approached, but did not yet exceed, the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS-3.4/2013, "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," to which the facility licensee is committed to follow. When subsequently evaluated on April 6, 2017, the facility licensee determined that a license amendment was necessary for the previously conforming medical condition. The operator was administratively suspended from engaging in licensed activities on July 13, 2016, and remained so as of the date of the on-site inspection. No licensed duties were performed by the operator subsequent to the expiration of his 2-year medical examination on November 19, 2016.

=====Analysis.=====
=====Analysis.=====
The failure of the licensee to conduct required biennial medical examinations for two licensed senior operators was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the licensee's ability to foresee and prevent. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to comply with medical testing requirements for two licensed senior operators compromised the facility licensee's ability to assure conformance to medical standards, detect non-conforming medical conditions, and report non-conformances to the NRC. In the case of one senior operator, it prevented the facility licensee from documenting and reporting an adverse medical condition which had transitioned from temporary to permanent in nature, thereby requiring either a license amendment or termination. In the case of the other senior operator, it prevented the facility licensee from evaluating the need for a license amendment for a medical condition which had previously approached, but not yet exceeded, the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS-3.4/2013. This performance deficiency was determined to be SL-IV because it fits the SL-IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples:  Licensed Reactor Operators."  This section states the following:  "Severity Level IV violations involve - :  A non-willful compromise - of an application, test, or examination required by 10 CFR Part 55. For example - (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 3.4, "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition."  This example fits the first identified non-conforming senior operator, for whom a subsequent medical examination would have required documentation of a new permanent medical condition, submittal of a new NRC Form 396, and issuance of a license amendment or termination. The second identified non-conforming senior operator is also similar to this example, except that he was periodically assessed for a medical condition which approached, but did not yet exceed the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS-3.4/2013. When subsequently evaluated on April 6, 2017, the facility licensee determined that a license amendment was necessary for the previously conforming medical condition. This finding is being treated as a NCV because:  (1) the facility licensee placed the violation into the corrective action program as Notification 50912407; (2) the facility licensee restored compliance within a reasonable period of time by requesting termination of one license, and re-examining the holder of another license; (3) the violation was non-repetitive as determined by a search on NRC databases for prior violations issued to the facility licensee; and (4) the violation did not involve willfulness. There is no cross-cutting aspect associated with this violation because it was processed using traditional enforcement. In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix B, "Issue Screening," the performance deficiency was also evaluated for significance under the Reactor Oversight Process. Licensed operators are treated as Mitigating Systems under the Reactor Oversight Process regulatory framework. Since the facility licensee administratively suspended both operators' qualifications prior to expiration of their biennial medical examination periods, neither operator was able to perform licensed duties while either diagnosed as medically unfit or after expiration of the medical exam. As a result, there was no adverse effect on the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of the Reactor Oversight Process, and therefore no more-than-minor Reactor Oversight Process violation existed.

=====Description.=====
=====Description.=====
On April 5, 2017, an NRC inspector identified that the facility licensee failed to inform the NRC within 30 days that a currently licensed senior operator had developed a permanent medical condition which had prevented the senior operator from engaging in licensed activities since March 12, 2014. On March 12, 2014, the facility licensee informed the NRC by letter that this senior operator had developed a "temporary medical condition," and had been administratively removed from engaging in licensed activities. On December 1, 2014, the senior operator left the site permanently, ultimately transitioning into the facility licensee's long-term disability program on April 23, 2015. Following the letter of March 12, 2014, no further communication was submitted to the NRC regarding this senior operator's status until the date of this inspection, and his license remained active. Following NRC identification, the facility licensee issued Notification 50911467 on April 6, 2017, to initiate termination of the senior operator's license. No licensed activities were performed by the senior operator subsequent to the facility licensee's initial diagnosis of a temporary medical condition on March 12, 2014. The facility licensee endorsed ANSI/ANS-3.4-2013, "medical certification and monitoring of personnel requiring operator licenses for nuclear power plants," on March 26, 2015. ANSI/ANS-3.4-2013 defines a "temporary medical condition" as follows:  "When an operator does not meet the specific minimum requirements in this standard but is expected to meet those requirements (without exception) again in the future, the operator's condition/disability is considered temporary and does not need to be reported to the NRC. The facility licensee is expected to administratively restrict the operator's activities, as appropriate, during the term of the condition/disability. It is up to the licensee's examining physician to evaluate each operator's situation and assess whether the operator will be capable of meeting the requirements within 90 days."

ANSI/ANS-3.4-2013 defines a "permanent medical condition" as follows:  "An injury or condition that impairs the physical and/or mental ability of an operator to meet the specific minimum requirements in this standard and is, as evaluated by the examining physician, expected to extend beyond 90 days." Based on the above definitions, the facility licensee was expected to recognize that the operator's medical condition had become permanent in nature, by extending well beyond 90 days such that the operator was required to leave the site permanently and transition into a long-term disability program.

=====Introduction.=====
The inspectors identified a Green, self-revealing, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Revision 11. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. This resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in service shutdown cooling residual heat removal (RHR) heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature during refueling outage 1R20.

, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Revision 11. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. This resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in service shutdown cooling residual heat removal (
RHR) heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature during refueling outage 1R20.


=====Description.=====
=====Description.=====
During plant shutdown conditions, both train A and train B of the RHR system are used in the shutdown cooling mode to remove decay heat generated from the nuclear fuel. The component cooling water (CCW) system is used to provide cooling flow to the RHR heat exchangers which are used as part of the shutdown cooling system. As part of the normal shutdown cooling system alignment, CCW header A provides cooling water flow to the train A, RHR heat exchanger and CCW header B provides cooling water flow to the train B, RHR heat exchanger. CCW header C is not normally aligned to provide cooling flow to a RHR heat exchanger. While preparing for maintenance on the Unit 1, CCW header C, motor-operated flow control valve FCV-355, PG&E operations personnel closed CCW cross tie valves CCW-23 and CCW-24. At the time of the cross tie valve closures, CCW heat exchanger 1-1 was removed from service for maintenance. Flow to CCW header A was being supplied from CCW header B via valves CCW-23 and CCW-24. The closure of the cross tie valves removed CCW cooling flow from CCW header A and accordingly to one of the two operating trains of RHR shutdown cooling. Due to the subsequent imbalance of flowrates through the CCW headers, RCS temperature fluctuated by approximately 8 degrees Fahrenheit prior to the CCW normal lineup being restored approximately 10 minutes later. Train B of RHR shutdown cooling remained in service throughout the event and was sufficient to prevent an uncontrollable increase in RCS temperature and the onset of core boiling. Time to boil in the RCS during the event was 154 minutes. PG&E determined that the causes of the loss of flow of CCW to the RHR heat exchanger included failure to follow protected equipment postings, improper operations turnover, inadequate situational awareness, and improper outage work planning logic. PG&E entered the event into their corrective action program and conducted a barrier analysis to determine the causes of the event and to identify corrective actions. PG&E initiated actions to prevent future recurrence including evaluating changes to training and work practices. The inspectors reviewed PG&E's actions to identify and correct the cause of the event.

=====Analysis.=====
=====Analysis.=====
The inspectors determined that PG&E's failure to follow AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Section 5.14 "Performing Work on Posted Protected Equipment," was a performance deficiency within PG&E's ability to foresee and correct. This performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the configuration control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the loss of cooling flow to the RHR heat exchanger while in shutdown cooling mode resulted in a perturbation in RCS temperature of approximately 8 degrees Fahrenheit. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process," and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) since it did not represent a loss of system safety function of at least a single train for greater than four hours. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with conservative bias because PG&E personnel did not use decision-making practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, despite being authorized to close CCW cross connect valves by the work control process, PG&E personnel did not question the impact of their actions on shutdown cooling [H.14].

The inspectors evaluated the licensee's performance in assessing the radiological hazards in the workplace associated with licensed activities. The inspectors assessed the licensee's implementation of appropriate radiation monitoring and exposure control measures for both individual and collective exposures. During the inspection, the inspectors interviewed licensee personnel, walked down various areas in the plant, performed independent radiation dose rate measurements, and observed postings and physical controls. The inspectors reviewed licensee performance in the following areas: Radiological hazard assessment, including a review of the plant's radiological source terms and associated radiological hazards.

NRC Inspection Procedure 71111.08, "Inservice Inspection Activities."  Experience has shown that this inspection is a resource intensive inspection both for the NRC inspectors and your staff. In order to minimize the impact to your onsite resources and to ensure a productive inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for this inspection. These documents have been divided into two groups. The first group (Section A of the enclosure) identified information to be provided prior to the inspection to ensure that the inspectors are adequately prepared. The second group (Section B of the enclosure) identifies the information the inspectors will need upon arrival at the site. It is important that all of these documents are up to date and complete in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of the inspection. We have discussed the schedule for these inspection activities with your staff and understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection will be Mr. Mike McCoy of your licensing organization. The tentative inspection schedule is as follows: Preparation week:  May 1, 2017 Onsite weeks: May 8 through May 19, 2017 Our inspection dates are subject to change based on your updated schedule of outage activities. If there are any questions about this inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector Isaac Anchondo at (817) 200-1152 (isaac.anchondo@nrc.gov).

SUMMARY

IR 05000275/201700 2, 05000323/201700 2; 04/01/2017 - 06/30/2017; Diablo Canyon Power Plant; inservice inspection activities, licensed operator requalification program and licensed operator performance, refueling and other outage activities The inspection activities described in this report were performed between April 1 and June 30, 2017, by the resident inspectors at Diablo Canyon Power Plant and inspectors from the NRC's Region IV office

. Two findings of very low safety significance (Green) are documented in this report.

These finding s involved violation s of NRC requirements. Additionally, NRC inspectors documented two Severity Level IV violation s with no associated findings. The significance of inspection findings is indicated by their color (i.e., Green, greater than Green, White, Yellow, or Red), determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process,

" dated April 29, 2015.

Their cross-cutting aspects are determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0310, "Aspects within the Cross-Cutting Areas,

" dated December 4, 2014

. 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

," dated July 2016.

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of the licensee's risk-informed inservice inspection program (which is their alternative to portions of the ASME Code

,Section XI inservice inspection program approved in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(z)) for the failure to properly expand the scope of additional welds to inspect. Specifically, a rejectable flaw on a pipe weld in the pressurizer sp ray line was identified during refueling outage 1R19 while performing an ultrasonic examination. The licensee expanded th e inspection scope by four additional welds, but failed to select those assigned with the same degradation. For immediate corrective actions, the licensee identified and intended to inspect four additional welds assigned to the same degradation mechanism as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program.

This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50920222.

The licensee's failure to properly expand the weld examination scope as required by the risk-informed inservice inspection program was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to select additional welds that were susceptible to the same degradation mechanism as weld WIB-378 placed the plant at an increased risk due to the potential of having an active degradation mechanism that could affect additional components. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," dated June 19, 2012, the inspector s determined the finding screened as having very low significance (Green) because: (1) it was not a design deficiency; (2) did not represent a loss of system and/or function; (3) did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time; and (4)did not result in the loss of a high safety-significant non-technical specification train. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with change management because leaders failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing the change to a risk-informed inservice inspection program. The implementing procedure failed to include the reference to "degradation mechanism" allowing for a misinterpretation of weld expansion requirements once a flaw was identified in a weld WIB-378 [H.3]. (Section 1R08) SL-IV. The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.21, "Medical Examination," for the licensee's failure to ensure that a medical examination by a physician to determine satisfaction of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1)requirements was conducted every 2 years for two licensed senior operators. Specifically, one licensed senior operator exceeded the two-year medical examination requirement by approximately 16 months between November 27, 2015, and April 6, 2017. A second licensed senior operator exceeded the 2-year medical examination requirement by 4 months between November 19, 2016, and April 6, 2017. As a corrective action, the licensee has conducted the required medical examination for one senior operator and initiated a license termination request for the other senior operator.

This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50912407

. The failure of the facility licensee to conduct required biennial medical examinations for two licensed senior operators was a performance deficiency

. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to comply with medical testing requirements for two operators compromised the facility licensee's ability to assure conformance to medical standards, detect non-conforming medical conditions, and report non-conformances to the NRC. This performance deficiency was determined to be Severity Level IV because it fits the Severity Level IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators." This section states, "Severity Level IV violations involve, for example -

(b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS)3.4," "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition." No cross-cutting aspect was assigned because the violation was processed using traditional enforcement.

(Section 1R11.3) SL-IV. The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV

, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.25, "Incapacitation Because of Disability or Illness

," for the licensee's failure to notify the NRC within 30 days of a change to one licensed senior operator's medical condition. Specifically, the licensed senior operator developed a permanent medical condition which caused him to permanently leave the site on December 1, 2014, and transition into a long-term disability program on April 23, 2015. The licensee did not notify the NRC of this change in medical condition. As a corrective action, the licensee initiated a license termination request for the affected operator, effective April 6, 2017. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Notification 50912407

. The failure of the facility licensee to notify the NRC within 30 days of a change in a licensed senior operator's medical condition was a performance deficiency

. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to report changes in a licensed senior operator's medical condition prevented the NRC from taking action to issue either a license amendment or termination, as appropriate. This performance deficiency was determined to be Severity Level IV because it fits the Severity Level IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators." This section states, "Severity Level IV violations involve, for example (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS)3.4," "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition." No cross-cutting aspect was assigned because the violation was processed using traditional enforcement.

(Section 1R11.3)

Green.

The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing

, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings,

" because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Revision 11. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. This resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in-service shutdown cooling residual heat removal heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in reactor coolant system temperature during refueling outage 1R20. The inspectors determined that PG&E's failure to follow AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Section 5.14 "Performing Work on Posted Protected Equipment," was a performance deficiency within PG&E's ability to foresee and correct. This performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the configuration control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the loss of cooling flow to the RHR heat exchanger while in shutdown cooling mode resulted in a perturbation in RCS temperature of approximately degrees Fahrenheit. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process," and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) since it did not represent a loss of system safety function of at least a single train for greater than four hours. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with conservative bias because PG&E personnel did not use decision-making practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, despite being authorized to close component cooling water cross connect valves by the work control process, PG&E personnel did not question the impact of their actions on shutdown cooling

[H.14]. (Section 1R20)5

-2) During the review and observation of each examination, the inspector observed whether activities were performed in accordance with the ASME Code requirements and applicable procedures. The inspector reviewed two indications that were previously examined, and observed whether the licensee evaluated and accepted the indications in accordance with the ASME Code. The inspector also reviewed the qualifications of all nondestructive examination technicians performing the inspections to determine whether they were current.

The inspector directly observed a portion of the following welding activities:

SYSTEM WELD IDENTIFICATION EXAMINATION TYPE Containment Fan Cooling Unit Weld No.

38 & 40 Gas Tungsten Arc Welding The inspector reviewed whether the welding procedure specifications and the welders had been properly qualified in accordance with ASME Code

,Section IX requirements. The inspector also determined that essential variables were identified, recorded in the procedure qualification record, and formed the bases for qualification of the welding procedure specifications.

b. Findings

Green. The inspector identified a non-cited violation of the licensee's risk

-informed inservice inspection program (which is their alternative to portions of the ASME Code

,Section XI inservice inspection program approved in accordance with 10 CFR 50.55a(z)) for the failure to properly expand the scope of additional welds to inspect. Specifically, a rejectable flaw on a pipe weld in the pressurizer sp ray line was identified during refueling outage 1R19 while performing an ultrasonic examination. The licensee expanded the inspection scope by four additional welds but failed to select those assigned with the same degradation mechanism

.

Description.

On November 8, 2001, the licensee received NRC approval to implement a risk-informed inservice inspection program for ASME Code

, Class 1 and 2 piping welds. The risk-informed inservice inspection program was developed in accordance with Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Topical Report TR

-112657, "Revised Risk-Informed Inservice Inspection Evaluation," Revision B

-A. During refueling outage 1R19, the licensee was completing the remaining inspections for the third 10

-year ISI interval as required by ASME Code,Section XI. During an ultrasonic examination, a rejectable flaw was identified in the pressurizer spray line, weld WIB

-378. The results and corrective actions were documented in Notification 50809162. The risk-informed inservice inspection program assigns a risk profile of each Class 1 and 2 piping weld based on risk significance, consequence of failure, and failure potential. The purpose of assigning a failure potential is to differentiate welds that are affected by a specific degradation mechanism. Topical Report TR

-112657 provides the guidance to assign a degradation mechanism. Welds that do not meet the specific criteria are assigned to a failure potential without a degradation mechanism. When a flaw is identified, additional examinations are required to be performed to determine if an active degradation mechanism exist.

Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS, "Additional, Supplemental

, and Successive Inspections," Revision 6, implements the guidance of additional inspections per Topical Report TR-112657. Section 4.2.6, states the following

"All other examination s performed on piping welds per the risk-informed ISI Program Plan that detect flaws or relevant conditions require additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions. The number of additional examinations shall be equivalent to the number examined initially for the current refueling outage, and shall include high risk-significant as well as medium risk

-significant elements (if needed) to reach the required number of additional elements

." The inspector noted that the term "elements" referred to selected welds per EPRI guidance. The inspector also noted that this procedural requirement was missing the reference to "degradation mechanism" in addition to "root cause conditions" as provided by Topical Report TR

-112657. Notification 50809162 documents that a flaw was identified in weld WIB

-378. Per the risk-informed inservice inspection program, this weld has a failure potential assigned to the degradation mechanism of Thermal Stratification, Cycling, and Striping (TASCS).

The licensee expanded the inspection scope to four additional examinations as required by Section 4.2.6 of Procedure ISI ADD SUCCESS. The inspector checked whether the selected welds had the same degradation mechanism as Weld WIB

-378 and identified that none of them had been assigned with TASCS as a degradation mechanism per their failure potential designation. The inspector concluded that although the licensee had correctly expanded the number of weld examinations it had failed to select those susceptible to TASCS.

Analysis.

The licensee's failure to properly expand the weld examination scope as required by the risk

-informed inservice inspection program was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to select additional welds that were susceptible to the same degradation mechanism as weld WIB

-378 placed the plant at an increased risk due to the potential of having an active degradation mechanism that could affect additional components. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At

-Power," dated June 19, 2012, the inspector determined the finding screened as having very low significance (Green) because: it was not a design deficiency; did not represent a loss of system and/or function; did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time; and did not result in the loss of a high safety

-significant

, non-technical specification train. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance associated with Change Management because leaders failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing the change to a risk

-informed inservice inspection program. The implementing procedure failed to include the reference to "degradation mechanism" allowing for a misinterpretation of weld expansion requirements once a flaw was identified in weld WIB-378 [H.3]. Enforcement

. Title 10 CFR 50.55a(z), states in part, that alternatives to the requirements of this section must be submitted and authorized prior to implementation.

The licensee received prior approval to implement a risk

-informed inservice inspection process developed based on the EPRI Topical Report TR

-112657, Revision B

-A, as an alternative to applicable requirements of Section XI of the ASME Code. The risk-informed inservice inspection process requires that when flaws or relevant conditions are detected, additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions or degradation mechanism are required. Contrary to t he above, from November 1, 2015, until May 17, 2017, the licensee failed to conduct the required additional examinations on elements in segments subject to the same root cause conditions or degradation mechanism after flaws or relevant conditions were detected. Specifically, the licensee completed ultrasonic examinations of four additional pipe welds, but failed to select those that were assigned the same degradation mechanism as pipe weld WIB

-378. As part of their corrective actions, the licensee, at the time of the inspection, identified and intended to inspect four additional welds assigned to the same degradation mechanism as required by the risk

-informed inservice inspection program.

Because the violation was of very low safety significance and it wa s entered into the corrective action program as Notification 50920222, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.

2a of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

-01, "Inadequate Expansion Scope of Risk-Informed Welds"

.2 Vessel Upper Head Penetration Inspection Activities

a. Inspection Scope

No vessel upper head penetration inspection activities were scheduled for Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Unit 1, during Outage 1R20.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Boric Acid Corrosion Control Inspection Activities

a. Inspection Scope

The inspector reviewed the licensee's implementation of its boric acid corrosion control program for monitoring degradation of those systems that could be adversely affected by boric acid corrosion. The inspector s reviewed the documentation associated with the licensee's boric acid corrosion control walk

-down as specified in Procedure ER1.ID2, "Boric Acid Corrosion Control Program," Revision 7. The inspector determined that the visual inspections emphasized locations where boric acid leaks could cause degradation of safety

-significant components, and that engineering evaluation s used corrosion rates applicable to the affected components and properly assessed the effects of corrosion induced wastage on structural or pressure boundary integrity. The inspector observed that corrective actions taken were consistent with the ASME Code, and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B requirements.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.4 Steam Generator Tube Inspection Activities

a. Inspection Scope

No steam generator tube inspection activities were scheduled for Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Unit 1, during Outage 1R20.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.5 Identification and Resolution of Problems

a. Inspection Scope

The inspector reviewed 13 condition reports which dealt with inservice inspection activities and found the corrective actions for inservice inspection issues were appropriate. From this review the inspector concluded that the licensee has an appropriate threshold for entering inservice inspection issues into the corrective action program and has procedures that direct a root cause evaluation when necessary. The licensee also has an effective program for applying industry inservice inspecti on operating experience.

The inspector also performed a review of licensee evaluations and corrective actions related to recent operating experience with degraded reactor vessel internal baffle-former bolts. Specifically, Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Unit 1, is a Tier 1a plant as identified in Nuclear Safety Advisory Letter (NSAL)1 "Baffle-Former Bolts." For a Tier 1a plant, the following actions were recommended:

Complete ultrasonic inspection of the baffle

-former bolts at the next schedule outage (1R20). Consider developing an acceptable bolting pattern analysis.

Replace any baffle

-former bolts with visible damage or ultrasonic indications prior to starting up.

The inspector reviewed the licensee's evaluations and corrective action to determine if they were consistent with recommendations identified in NSAL 1 and other applicable industry operating experience related to degraded baffle

-former bolts. The inspectors observed portions of the ultrasonic examinations and baffle

-former bolt inspection activities. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification Program and Licensed Operator Performance

.1 Review of Licensed Operator

Requalification

a. Inspection Scope

On June 27, 2017, the inspectors observed simulator scenarios for an operating crew

. The inspectors assessed the performance of the operators and the evaluators' critique of their performance. The inspectors also assessed the modeling and performance of the simulator during the simulator training scenario

. These activities constitute d completion of one quarterly licensed operator requalification program sample

, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.11.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Review of Licensed Operator Performance

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors observed the performance of on

-shift licensed operators in the plant's main control room. At the time of the observations, the plant was in a period of heightened activity.

The inspectors observed the operators' performance of the following activities:

April 23, 2017, Unit 1, reactor shutdown for refueling outage 1R20 May 1, 2017, Unit 1, reactor coolant system drain down for reactor head removal June 12, 2017, Unit 1, reduced inventory operations for vacuum refill of the reactor coolant system In addition, the inspectors assessed the operators' adherence to plant procedures, including conduct of operations procedure and other operations department policies.

These activities constitute d completion of one quarterly licensed operator performance sample, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.11.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Biennial Review of Requalification Program

Every year, either an annual review or a biennial review is performed on the licensed operator requalification program. For 2017, the biennial review was completed and the annual review was performed as part of this review.

The licensed operator requalification program involves two training cycles that are conducted over a 2

-year period. In the first cycle, the annual cycle, the operators are administered an operating test consisting of job performance measures and simulator scenarios. In the second part of the training cycle, the biennial cycle, operators are administered an operating test and a comprehensive written examination.

a. Inspection Scope

To assess the performance effectiveness of the licensed operator requalification program, the inspectors reviewed both the written examination and operating test quality and observed licensee administration of an annual requalification test while on

-site. The operating tests observed included multiple administrations of four job performance measures and two scenarios that were used in the current biennial requalification cycle. These observations allowed the inspectors to assess the licensee's effectiveness in conducting the operating test to ensure operator mastery of the training program content and to determine if feedback of performance analyses into the requalification training program was being accomplished.

On April 20, 2017, the licensee informed the inspectors of the completed cycle results for Diablo Canyon Power Plant for both the written examinations and the operating tests: 16 of 17 crews passed the simulator portion of the operating test 84 of 91 licensed operators passed the simulator portion of the operating test 90 of 91 licensed operators passed the job performance measure portion of the operating test 87 of 91 licensed operators passed the written examination The individuals that failed a portion of the examination were remediated, retested, and passed their retake examinations.

The inspectors observed examination security measures in place during administration of the exams (including controls and content overlap) and reviewed remedial training and re-examinations, as available. The inspectors also reviewed medical records of 10 licensed operators for conformance to license conditions and the licensee's system for tracking qualifications and records of license reactivation for 11 operators.

The inspectors reviewed simulator performance for fidelity with the actual plant and the overall simulator program of maintenance, testing, and discrepancy correction.

The inspectors completed one inspection sample of the biennial licensed operator requalification program.

b. Findings

(1) Introduction

. The inspector s identified a Severity Level IV (SL-IV) non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 55.21, "Medical Examination," for the licensee's failure to ensure that a medical examination by a physician to determine satisfaction of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1) requirements was conducted every two years for two licensed senior operators.

Description.

On April 5, 2017, an NRC inspector identified that a currently licensed senior operator last had a 10 CFR 55.21 required medical examination on November 27, 2013, a span of 40 months. On March 12, 2014, the facility licensee informed the NRC by letter that this operator had developed a "temporary medical condition," and had been administratively removed from engaging in licensed activities. On December 1, 2014, the individual left the site permanently, ultimately transitioning into the licensee's long

-term disability program on April 23, 2015. Following the notification of March 12, 2014, no further communication was submitted to the NRC regarding this operator's status until the date of this inspection, and his license remained active. Following NRC identification, the licensee issued Notification 50911467 on April 6, 2017, to initiate termination of the operator's license. No licensed duties were performed by the operator subsequent to the expiration of his 2-year medical examination on November 26, 2015.

On April 13, 2017, the facility licensee informed the inspectors that during an Extent of Condition review, a second licensed senior operator was identified who had exceeded two years between 10 CFR 55.21 required medical examinations. The individual received a medical examination on November 19, 2014, but did not receive a subsequent biennial medical examination until April 6, 2017, a period of two years and four months. During this time

, the operator was periodically evaluated for a medical condition which approached, but did not yet exceed

, the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS

-3.4/2013, "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," to which the facility licensee is committed to follow. When subsequently evaluated on April 6, 2017, the facility licensee determined that a license amendment was necessary for the previously conforming medical condition. The operator was administratively suspended from engaging in licensed activities on July 13, 2016, and remained so as of the date of the on

-site inspection. No licensed duties were performed by the operator subsequent to the expiration of his 2-year medical examination on November 19, 2016.

Analysis.

The failure of the licensee to conduct required biennial medical examinations for two licensed senior operators was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the licensee's ability to foresee and prevent. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure to comply with medical testing requirements for two licensed senior operators compromised the facility licensee's ability to assure conformance to medical standards, detect non-conforming medical conditions, and report non

-conformances to the NRC. In the case of one senior operator, it prevented the facility licensee from documenting and reporting an adverse medical condition which had transitioned from temporary to permanent in nature, thereby requiring either a license amendment or termination. In the case of the other senior operator, it prevented the facility licensee from evaluating the need for a license amendment for a medical condition which had previously approache d, but not yet exceeded, the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS-3.4/2013. This performance deficiency was determined to be SL

-IV because it fits the SL

-IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators." This section states the following

"Severity Level IV violations involve - : A non

-willful compromise - of an application, test, or examination required by 10 CFR Part 55. For example - (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 3.4, "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition." This example fits the first identified non

-conforming senior operator, for whom a subsequent medical examination would have required documentation of a new permanent medical condition, submittal of a new NRC Form 396, and issuance of a license amendment or termination. The second identified non

-conforming senior operator is also similar to this example, except that he was periodically assessed for a medical condition which approached, but did not yet exceed the threshold for a disqualifying condition under ANSI/ANS-3.4/2013. When subsequently evaluated on April 6, 2017, the facility licensee determined that a license amendment was necessary for the previously conforming medical condition.

This finding is being treated as a NCV because: (1) the facility licensee placed the violation into the corrective action program as Notification 50912407; (2)the facility licensee restored compliance within a reasonable period of time by requesting termination of one license, and re

-examining the holder of another license; (3) the violation was non

-repetitive as determined by a search on NRC databases for prior violations issued to the facility licensee; and (4)the violation did not involve willfulness. There is no cross

-cutting aspect associated with this violation because it was processed using traditional enforcement.

In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix B, "Issue Screening," the performance deficiency was also evaluated for significance under the Reactor Oversight Process. Licensed operators are treated as Mitigating Systems under the Reactor Oversight Process regulatory framework. Since the facility licensee administratively suspended both operators' qualifications prior to expiration of their biennial medical examination periods, neither operator was able to perform licensed duties while either diagnosed as medically unfit or after expiration of the medical exam. As a result, there was no adverse effect on the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of the Reactor Oversight Process, and therefore no more

-than-minor Reactor Oversight Process violation existed.

Enforcement

. Title 10 CFR 55.21 requires, in part, that, a licensee (licensed senior operator) shall have a medical examination by a physician every two years to determine that the licensed senior operator meets the requirements of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1). Contrary to the above, between November 27, 2015, and April 6, 2017, licensed senior operators failed to have a medical examination by a physician every two years to determine that the licensed senior operator met the requirements of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1), as evidenced by two examples.

Specifically, one licensed senior operator exceeded the 2-year medical examination requirement by approximately 16 months between November 27, 2015, and April 6, 2017.

The facility licensee subsequently initiated action to terminate the operator's license.

The second licensed senior operator exceeded the 2-year medical examination requirement by four months, between November 19, 2016, and April 6, 2017, before the licensed senior operator was re-examined.

Because this finding is of very low safety significance and was entered into the corrective action program as Notification 50912407, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy. NCV 05000275/2017002

" (2) Introduction

. The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.25, "Incapacitation Because of Disability or Illness," for the facility licensee's failure to notify the NRC within 30 days of changes to one licensed senior operator's medical condition.

Description.

On April 5, 2017, an NRC inspector identified that the facility licensee failed to inform the NRC within 30 days that a currently licensed senior operator had developed a permanent medical condition which had prevented the senior operator from engaging in licensed activities since March 12, 2014. On March 12, 2014, the facility licensee informed the NRC by letter that this senior operator had developed a "temporary medical condition," and had been administratively removed from engaging in licensed activities. On December 1, 2014, the senior operator left the site permanently, ultimately transitioning into the facility licensee's long

-term disability program on April 23, 2015. Following the letter of March 12, 2014, no further communication was submitted to the NRC regarding this senior operator's status until the date of this inspection, and his license remained active. Following NRC identification, the facility licensee issued Notification 50911467 on April 6, 2017, to initiate termination of the senior operator's license. No licensed activities were performed by the senior operator subsequent to the facility licensee's initial diagnosis of a temporary medical condition on March 12, 2014.

The facility licensee endorsed ANSI/ANS

-3.4-2013, "medical certification and monitoring of personnel requiring operator licenses for nuclear power plants," on March 26, 2015.

ANSI/ANS-3.4-2013 defines a "temporary medical condition" as follows:

"When an operator does not meet the specific minimum requirements in this standard but is expected to meet those requirements (without exception) again in the future, the operator's condition/disability is considered temporary and does not need to be reported to the NRC. The facility licensee is expected to administratively restrict the operator's activities, as appropriate, during the term of the condition/disability. It is up to the licensee's examining physician to evaluate each operator's situation and assess whether the operator will be capable of meeting the requirements within 90 days."

ANSI/ANS-3.4-2013 defines a "permanent medical condition" as follows:

"An injury or condition that impairs the physical and/or mental ability of an operator to meet the specific minimum requirements in this standard and is, as evaluated by the examining physician, expected to extend beyond 90 days." Based on the above definitions, the facility licensee was expected to recognize that the operator's medical condition had become permanent in nature, by extending well beyond 90 days such that the operator was required to leave the site permanently and transition into a long

-term disability program.

Analysis.

The failure of the facility licensee to notify the NRC within 30 days of changes in a licensed senior operator's medical condition was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the facility licensee's ability to foresee and prevent. This issue was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process because it negatively impacted the NRC's ability to perform its regulatory oversight function. Specifically, the failure t o report changes in a licensed senior operator's medical condition prevented the NRC from taking action to issue either a license amendment or termination, as appropriate. This performance deficiency was determined to be SL

-IV because it fits the SL

-IV example of Enforcement Policy Section 6.4.d.1, "Violation Examples: Licensed Reactor Operators." This section states the following

"Severity Level IV violations involve - : A non

-willful compromise - of an application, test, or examination required by 10 CFR Part 55. For example - (b) an individual operator who did not meet the American National Standards Institute/American Nuclear Society (ANSI/ANS) 3.4, "Medical Certification and Monitoring of Personnel Requiring Operator Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants," Section 5, "Health Requirements and Disqualifying Conditions," as certified on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee," required by 10 CFR 55.23, Certification, but who did not perform the functions of a licensed operator or senior operator while having a disqualifying medical condition." This example fits the non

-conforming senior operator, who would have required either a license amendment or termination for the unreported permanent medical condition, but who did not engage in licensed activities from the time that a license amendment or termination was required.

This finding is being treated as a NCV because: (1) the facility licensee placed the violation into the corrective action program as Notification 50912407, (2)the facility licensee restored compliance within a reasonable period of time by requesting termination of the license, (3)the violation was non

-repetitive as determined by a search on NRC databases for prior violations issued to the facility licensee, and (4)the violation did not involve willfulness. There is no cross

-cutting aspect associated with this violation because it was processed using traditional enforcement.

In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix B, "Issue Screening," the performance deficiency was also evaluated for significance under the Reactor Oversight Process. Licensed operators are treated as mitigating systems under the Reactor Oversight Process regulatory framework. Since the facility licensee administratively suspended the senior operator's qualifications prior to the need for a license amendment or termination, the operator was unable to perform licensed duties while diagnosed as medically unfit. As a result, there was no adverse effect on the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of the Reactor Oversight Process and, therefore, no more-than-minor Reactor Oversight Process violation exists.

Enforcement.

Title 10 CFR 55.25 requires, in part, that, if the licensee (licensed senior operator) develops a permanent physical condition that causes the licensed senior operator to fail to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 55.21, the facility licensee shall notify the Commission, within 30 days of learning of the diagnosis, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.74(c).

Contrary to the above, from May 23, 2015, to April 6, 2017, the facility licensee failed to notify the Commission, within 30 days of learning of the diagnosis, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.74(c), that a licensed senior operator developed a permanent physical condition that caused the licensed senior operator to fail to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 55.21.

Specifically, a licensed senior operator permanently left the site on December 1, 2014, and transitioned into a long

-term disability program on April 23, 2015. The facility licensee subsequently initiated action to terminate the senior operator's license, effective April 6, 2017. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and was entered into the CAP as Notification 50912407, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed two instances of degraded performance or condition of safety-significant structures, systems, and components (SSCs):

June 16, 2017, Units 1 and 2, emergency diesel generator fuel injection shaft spalling June 21, 2017, Unit s 1 and 2, containment fan cooling units The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition of possible common cause SSC failures and evaluated the adequacy of the licensee's corrective actions. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's work practices to evaluate whether these may have played a role in the degradation of the SSCs. 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 sample s, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12.

b. Findings

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspectors identified a Gre en, self-revealing

, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," because PG&E personnel failed to follow the requirements of AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Revision 11. Specifically, PG&E personnel failed to obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. This resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in service shutdown cooling residual heat removal (

RHR) heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature during refueling outage 1R20.

Description.

During plant shutdown conditions, both train A and train B of the RHR system are used in the shutdown cooling mode to remove decay heat generated from the nuclear fuel. The component cooling water (CCW) system is used to provide cooling flow to the RHR heat exchangers which are used as part of the shutdown cooling system. As part of the normal shutdown cooling system alignment, CCW header A provides cooling water flow to the train A, RHR heat exchanger and CCW header B provides cooling water flow to the train B, RHR heat exchanger. CCW header C is not normally aligned to provide cooling flow to a RHR heat exchanger. While preparing for maintenance on the Unit 1

, CCW header C, motor-operated flow control valve FCV

-355, PG&E operations personnel closed CCW cross tie valves CCW

-23 and CCW

-24. At the time of the cross tie valve closures, CCW heat exchanger 1-1 was removed from service for maintenance. Flow to CCW header A was being supplied from CCW header B via valves CCW

-23 and CCW-24. The closure of the cross tie valves removed CCW cooling flow from CCW header A and accordingly to one of the two operating trains of RHR shutdown cooling. Due to the subsequent imbalance of flowrates through the CCW headers, RCS temperature fluctuated by approximately 8 degrees Fahrenheit prior to the CCW normal lineup being restored approximately 10 minutes later. Train B of RHR shutdown cooling remained in service throughout the event and was sufficient to prevent an uncontrollable increase in RCS temperature and the onset of core boiling. Time to boil in the RCS during the event was 154 minutes. PG&E determined that the causes of the loss of flow of CCW to the RHR heat exchanger included failure to follow protected equipment postings, improper operations turnover, inadequate situational awareness, and improper outage work planning logic. PG&E entered the event into their corrective action program and conducted a barrier analysis to determine the causes of the event and to identify corrective actions. PG&E initiated actions to prevent future recurrence including evaluating changes to training and work practices. The inspectors reviewed PG&E's actions to identify and correct the cause of the event.

Analysis.

The inspectors determined that PG&E's failure to follow AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk," Section 5.14 "Performing Work on Posted Protected Equipment,"

was a performance deficiency within PG&E's ability to foresee and correct. This performance deficiency was considered to be more than minor because it impacted the configuration control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the loss of cooling flow to the RHR heat exchanger while in shutdown cooling mode resulted in a perturbation in RCS temperature of approximately 8 degrees Fahrenheit. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process,"

and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) since it did not represent a loss of system safety function of at least a single train for greater than four hours. The finding had a cross

-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with conservative bias because PG&E personnel did not use decision-making practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, despite being authorized to close CCW cross connect valves by the work control process, PG&E personnel did not question the impact of their actions on shutdown cooling

[H.14]. Enforcement

. Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V requires, in part, that activities affecting quality shall 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, or drawings. PG&E procedure AD7.ID14, "Assessment of Integrated Risk,"

Revision 11, Section 5.14 requires that personnel obtain shift manager permission, conduct a protected equipment briefing, and document shift manager approval prior to performing work on protected equipment. Contrary to the above, PG&E maintenance and operations personnel conducted work on the Unit 1

, CCW system without obtaining shift manager permission, conducting a protected equipment briefing, and documenting shift manager permission

- actions designed to prevent unnecessary protected system equipment impacts. These actions resulted in a loss of flow of cooling water to one of two in service shutdown cooling RHR heat exchangers and subsequent perturbation in RCS temperature during refueling outage 1R20. After the issue was identified, PG&E entered the issue into their corrective action program as Notification 50915907 and initiated a barrier review. Additionally, PG&E initiated actions to prevent future recurrence including evaluating changes to training and work practices. Because this violation is of very low safety significance (Green) and PG&E entered the issue into their corrective action program, this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy.
