The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Design Control attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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 re-analysis of the ventilation system resulted in a reduction in temperature margin, which could impact the reliability and capability of emergency electrical equipment in the EERs. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating structure, system, or component (SSC), and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance.  (Section 1R21.2.b.05)

SUMMARY

IR 05000335/2016-008 and 05000389/2016-008; 02/08/2016 - 03/04/2016; St. Lucie Plant, Units 1 and 2; Design Bases Inspection (Team).

This inspection was conducted by a team of five Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspectors from Region II and two NRC contract personnel. The significance of inspection findings are indicated by their color (i.e., greater than Green, or Green, White, Yellow, or Red)and determined using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, "Significance Determination Process," (SDP) dated April 29, 2015. Cross-cutting aspects are determined using IMC 0310, "Aspects Within the Cross-Cutting Areas," dated December 4, 2014. All violations of NRC requirements were dispositioned in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy dated February 4, 2015. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 5.

NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

  • Green: The NRC identified a non-cited violation of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to consider the impact of elevated ambient temperatures on motor operated valve (MOV) actuator output. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program and also evaluated the elevated ambient temperature effects on several affected station MOVs and determined the MOVs remained operable.

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Design Control 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 licensee did not ensure the capability of several MOVs scoped into their MOV program because they did not consider reduced actuator output torque due to elevated temperatures. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating structure, system, or component (SSC), and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was assigned a cross-cutting aspect of Evaluation in the Problem Identification and Resolution Area because the finding was indicative of current licensee performance, and the licensee did not thoroughly evaluate the issue identified in AR 2030822, such that the design issue of accounting for elevated temperature was resolved [P.2]. (Section 1R21.2.b.01)

  • Green: The NRC identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control," for the licensee's failure to perform testing for safety-related 125 volts direct current (VDC) molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) to detect deterioration. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program and plans to make changes to the procedure to ensure deterioration of the safety-related 125VDC MCCBs is adequately detected.

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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, cycling the breakers multiple times before electro-mechanical testing could mask degradation of the circuit breakers and thus decrease the reliability of the breakers to perform their safety function when called upon. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green), because it was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a structure, system, or component which did not maintain its functionality; 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 greater than its Technical Specification (TS) allowed outage time or two separate safety systems out-of-service for greater than its TS allowed outage time; and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-TS trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance. (Section 1R21.2.b.03)

  • Green: The NRC identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," for the licensee's failure to identify a condition adverse to quality, which prevented the Unit 1 electrical equipment room (EER) supply fan dampers from performing their safety-related function to close. The licensee entered the issue into their corrective action program and implemented compensatory measures to prevent reverse flow of air through the degraded dampers in the event of a failure of their supply fan. This compensatory measure will remain in place until the licensee is able to replace both gravity dampers.

This performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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 inability of the gravity dampers to close upon failure of one of the supply fans would result in room temperatures above the design temperature of 104ºF. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating structure, system, or component (SSC), and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance. (Section 1R21.2.b.04)

  • Green: The NRC identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to verify the adequacy of the Unit 1 electrical equipment room (EER) ventila tion system design when performing a design calculation. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program and plans to re-balance flow rates in the EERs or revise the equipment qualification temperatures for equipment located in the EERs.

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Design Control attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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 re-analysis of the ventilation system resulted in a reduction in temperature margin, which could impact the reliability and capability of emergency electrical equipment in the EERs. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating structure, system, or component (SSC), and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance. (Section 1R21.2.b.05)

  • Green: The NRC identified a finding for the licensee's failure to properly provide a completely missile-protected intertie from the Unit 1 diesel oil transfer pumps to the Unit 2 diesel oil storage tanks. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it adversely affected the Protection Against External Factors attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective which of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events. Specifically, a postulated tornado missile could fail the unprotected section of piping, rendering the intertie unable to complete its intended function, thereby reducing the licensee's capability to mitigate a design basis tornado event. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve the total loss of any safety function, nor was it identified by the licensee through probabilistic risk assessment, Individual Plant

Evaluation of External Events (IPEEE), or similar analysis that would have contributed to external event initiated core damage accident sequences. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance. (Section 1R21.3.b.01)

Other Findings

  • SL-IV: The NRC identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.71, "Maintenance of Records, Making of Reports," for the licensee's failure to update the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) to reflect the offsite power design characteristic group and emergency alternating current power configuration group for station blackout coping duration. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program in order to update the information.

The failure to update the UFSAR was dispositioned using the traditional enforcement process because it had the potential to impact the regulatory process. The team determined the violation was more than minor because not accurately classifying the offsite power design characteristic group and emergency alternating current power design characteristic group could have a material impact on licensed activities. The team determined the violation to be a Severity Level IV violation because the lack of up-to-date information has not resulted in any unacceptable change to the facility or procedures. This violation was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because cross-cutting aspects are not assigned to traditional enforcement violations. (Section 1R21.2.b.02)

REPORT DETAILS

REACTOR SAFETY

Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity

1R21 Design Bases Inspection (Team)

.1 Inspection Sample Selection Process

The team selected risk-significant components and related operator actions for review using information contained in the licensee's probabilistic risk assessment. In general, this included risk significant structures, systems, and components (SSCs) that had a risk achievement worth factor greater than 1.3 or Birnbaum value greater than 1E-6. The sample included 11 SSCs, 2 SSCs associated with containment large early release frequency (LERF), and 3 operating experience (OE) items.

The team performed a margin assessment and a detailed review of the selected risk-significant components and associated operator actions to verify that the design bases had been correctly implemented and maintained. Where possible, this margin was determined by the review of the design basis and Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). This margin assessment also considered original design issues, margin reductions due to modifications, or margin reductions identified as a result of material condition issues. Equipment reliability issues were also considered in the selection of components for a detailed review. These reliability issues included items related to failed performance test results, significant corrective action, repeated maintenance, maintenance rule status, Inspection Manual Chapter 0326 conditions, NRC Resident Inspector input regarding problem equipment, system health reports, industry OE, and licensee problem equipment lists. Consideration was also given to the uniqueness and complexity of the design, OE, and the available defense-in-depth margins. An overall summary of the reviews performed and the specific inspection findings identified is included in the following sections of the report.

.2 Component Reviews

a. Inspection Scope

SSCs

  • Unit 1 A & B refueling water tank (RWT) outlet check valves and A & B safety injection pump containment sump suction check valves (1-V07119, 1-V07120, 1-V07172, and 1-V07174)
  • Unit 1 electrical equipment room (EER) supply fans (HVS-5A and HVS-5B)
  • Unit 1 / Unit 2 instrument air system sub-components (PCV-18-5 and PCV-18-6)
  • Unit 1 480 volt switchgear (1A2)
  • Unit 1 startup transformer (1B)
  • Unit 1 125 volt direct current supply breaker (1-60213)
  • Unit 1 EDG (1B)
  • Unit 1 4160 volt switchgear (1A3)
  • Unit 1 static inverters (1A and 1B)
  • Unit 1 480 volt motor control center (1B7)

Components with LERF Implications

  • Unit 1 high pressure safety injection (HPSI) pump discharge motor-operated valves (MOVs) (V-3656 and V3654)

For the 13 components listed above, the team reviewed the plant technical specifications (TS), UFSAR, design bases documents, and drawings to establish an overall understanding of the design bases of the components. Design calculations and procedures were reviewed to verify that the design and licensing bases had been appropriately translated into these documents and that the most limiting parameters and equipment line-ups were used. Logic and wiring diagrams were also reviewed to verify that operation of electrical components conformed to design requirements. Test procedures and recent test results were reviewed against design bases documents to verify the adequacy of test methods and that acceptance criteria for tested parameters were supported by calculations or other engineering documents, and that individual tests and analyses served to validate component operation under accident conditions.

Maintenance procedures were reviewed to ensure components were appropriately included in the licensee's preventive maintenance program. System modifications, vendor documentation, system health reports, preventive and corrective maintenance history, and corrective action program documents were reviewed (as applicable) in order to verify that the performance capability of the component was not negatively impacted, and that potential degradation was monitored or prevented. Maintenance Rule information was reviewed to verify that the component was properly scoped, and that appropriate preventive maintenance was being performed to justify current Maintenance Rule status. Component walk downs and interviews were conducted to verify that the installed configurations would support their design and licensing bases functions under accident conditions, and had been maintained to be consistent with design assumptions.

Additionally, the team performed the following specific reviews:

  • The team reviewed the most recent MOV diagnostic testing results for the Unit 1 HPSI pump discharge MOVs to verify current MOV parameters were bounded by their requirements and capability assumptions.
  • The team verified the licensee was testing the Unit 1 A & B RWT outlet check valves and A & B safety injection pump containment sump suction check valves in accordance with their ASME OM Code of Record requirements for the check valve condition monitoring program.
  • The team observed a simulator scenario involving a time critical operator action for aligning electrical power from Unit 1 to Unit 2 via the station blackout (SBO) crosstie to verify the required operator actions could be accomplished within the required time and as relied upon in design assumptions, and that the actions could be accomplished in accordance with approved licensee procedures.
  • The team observed a simulator scenario involving a total loss of feedwater event that would require the operators to establish once through cooling to verify the actions could be accomplished as relied upon in design assumptions and in accordance with approved licensee procedures.
  • The team performed table-top reviews, with a licensed operator, of several abnormal and emergency procedures to better understand actions to be taken to: 1) makeup diesel fuel to the emergency diesel generator day tanks, 2) align instrument air following a loss of offsite power (LOOP), and 3) restart the EER fans following a LOOP.
  • The team conducted in-field walk downs of the procedures listed above to verify the actions could be accomplished within the assumed timeframe, that there was sufficient guidance in the procedures to properly complete the tasks, that equipment or tools necessary to assist in accomplishing these tasks were available in the designated locations, and that the areas requiring accessibility were accessible. In addition, the team interviewed operators qualified to these tasks to ensure their knowledge and training was sufficient to successfully accomplish the tasks.

.01 Failure to Consider Elevated Temperature Effects on MOV Actuator Output Capability

Introduction:

The NRC identified a Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to consider the impact of elevated ambient temperatures on MOV actuator output.

Description:

In response to the concerns raised in NRC Generic Letters (GL) 89-10 and 96-05, the licensee developed an MOV program intended to demonstrate the capability of Plant St. Lucie's safety-related MOVs to perform their design basis functions under predicted design basis conditions. These design basis conditions include parameters that affect both the required thrust and/or torque of the MOV actuators, as well as the available thrust and/or torque supplied by the motor-actuators. Proper accounting for the predicted effect of the design basis elevated ambient temperature on motor-actuators manufactured by Limitorque was described in the licensee's design standard, STD-M-003, "Engineering Guidelines for Sizing and Evaluation of Limitorque Motor Operators," Revision 6. This standard described, in section 6.4.1, that, "if a motor operator may be potentially subject to high temperatures (>104ºF) reduced motor starting torque should be considered in capability evaluations." The requirement to consider the effects of elevated temperature was derived from Limitorque Technical Update 93-03, "Reliance 3 Phase LImitorque Corporation Actuator Motors (Starting Torque @ Elevated Temperature," dated September 1993, which stated, in part, "torque reduction is to be applied at temperatures >40ºC (104ºF)." The team determined that the licensee had not correctly implemented the guidance in Limitorque Technical Update 93-03 and their design standard, STD-M-003, when determining the MOV actuator capability of several MOVs.

The team noted that the licensee evaluated the impact of elevated ambient temperature on MOVs in their corrective action program in Action Request (AR) 2030822, "Elevated Temperature for MOV Operation," dated March 9, 2015. In their evaluation of the design question documented in the AR, the licensee incorrectly determined that they were accounting for the effects of elevated ambient temperature by using an application factor of 0.9, and therefore did not update any design calculations that determined MOV actuator output capability. While the application factor was discussed in Limitorque Technical Update 93-03, it was not intended to account for the elevated ambient temperature effects, and therefore needed to be considered separately. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program as AR 2110968. The licensee evaluated the impact of elevated ambient temperature effects on the affected MOVs, and determined that the MOVs remained operable, although some design margin was lost. Specifically, the Unit 1 and 2 shutdown cooling isolation valves margin reduced from above 10 percent (high margin) to below 10 percent (medium margin). This reduction in margin could affect the frequency at which the valves are to be tested in order to meet the requirements of the licensee's GL 96-05 MOV program.

Analysis:

The failure to consider elevated ambient temperature effects on MOV actuator output capability as required by Limitorque Technical Update 93-03 and STD-M-003 was a performance deficiency and a failure to meet 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control." The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Design Control 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 licensee did not ensure the capability of several MOVs scoped into their MOV program because they did not consider reduced actuator output torque due to elevated temperatures. The team used IMC 0609, Att. 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued June 19, 2012, for Mitigating Systems, and IMC 0609, App. A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating SSC, and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was assigned a cross-cutting aspect of Evaluation in the Problem Identification and Resolution Area, because the finding was indicative of current licensee performance, and the licensee did not thoroughly evaluate the issue identified in AR 2030822, such that the design issue of accounting for elevated temperature was resolved [P.2].

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," required, in part, that design control "measures shall include provisions to assure that appropriate quality standards are specified and included in design documents and that deviations from such standards are controlled." Licensee Standard STD-M-003 required that reduced motor starting torque should be considered in capability evaluations for Limitorque motor operators potentially subject to high temperatures (>104ºF). Contrary to the above, since September 1993, the licensee did not control a deviation from their quality standard for MOV design. Specifically, the licensee did not adequately consider the impact of elevated temperatures in their design calculations for MOV actuator capability. In response to this issue, the licensee evaluated the elevated ambient temperature effects on several affected station MOVs and determined the MOVs remained operable. This violation is being treated as an NCV consistent with section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as AR 2110968. (NCV 05000335/2016008-01 and 05000389/2016008-01, "Failure to Consider Elevated Temperature Effects on MOV Actuator Output

Capability.")

.02 Failure to Update UFSAR to Reflect Station Blackout Coping Time Basis

Introduction:

The NRC identified a Severity Level (SL) IV NCV of 10 CFR 50.71, "Maintenance of Records, Making of Reports," for the licensee's failure to update the UFSAR to reflect the offsite power design characteristic group and emergency AC power configuration group for station blackout coping duration.

Description:

On June 11, 1992, the NRC issued a supplemental safety evaluation (SSE) report confirming the licensee's conformance to 10 CFR 50.63, "Loss of all alternating current power," (the station blackout rule) as was outlined in a previous safety evaluation report (SER) dated September 12, 1991. In the September 12, 1991, SER, the licensee committed to an offsite power design characteristic group of "P3*" and a power design characteristic group of "C." From NUMARC 87-00, Guidelines and Technical Bases for NUMARC Initiatives Addressing Station Blackout at Light Water Reactors, dated August 1991, the licensee was afforded the option of committing to power design characteristic group "P3*" which reduced their coping duration from eight hours to four hours, provided that the plant created hurricane preparation procedures and committed to placing the unit into a safe shutdown condition two hours before an anticipated hurricane arrives at the site. The licensee was given an emergency AC group of "C" for having two dedicated diesel generators, of which one is required for safe shutdown (Table 3-7 of NUMARC 87-00) of Unit 1. No credit was given to the electrical cross-tie in determining the emergency AC group since the cross-tie does not meet the definition of "normally shared" per NUMARC guidance.

When reviewing the licensee's current updated final safety analysis report (UFSAR Amendment 27), section 8.3.1.1.7.g, "Diese l Generator Reliability Program," the team noted the UFSAR listed the offsite power design characteristic group as "P3" and the emergency AC power configuration group as "A," which differed from the commitment referred to in the September 12, 1991, SER.

The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as AR 2109417, and planned to update the UFSAR to reflect the correct offsite power design characteristic group and emergency AC power design characteristic group as "P3*" and "C,"

respectively.

Analysis:

The failure to update the UFSAR in accordance with 10 CFR 50.71(e) to correctly reflect the offsite power design characteristic group and emergency AC power design group was a performance deficiency. The finding was dispositioned using the traditional enforcement process instead of the significance determination process (SDP)in accordance with IMC 0612, Appendix B, because it has the potential to impact the regulatory process. The team used the NRC Enforcement Manual, Rev. 9, dated September 9, 2013, and determined the violation was more than minor because not accurately classifying the offsite power design characteristic group and emergency AC power design characteristic group could have a material impact on licensed activities. The team used the NRC Enforcement Policy, dated February 4, 2015, and determined the violation to be a Severity Level IV violation because the lack of up-to-date information has not resulted in any unacceptable change to the facility or procedures. This violation was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because cross-cutting aspects are not assigned to traditional enforcement violations.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR 50.71(e) required, in part, that licensees shall periodically update the final safety analysis report (FSAR), originally submitted as part of the application for the operating license, to assure that the information included in the report contains the latest information developed. This submittal shall include all safety analyses and evaluations in support of approved license amendments. Contrary to the above, since June 11, 1992, the licensee failed to update the UFSAR to assure that information included in the report contained the latest information developed.

Specifically, the licensee failed to include the correct offsite power design characteristic group and emergency AC power design characteristic group. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program in order to update the information. This violation is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as AR 2109417. (NCV 05000335/2016008-02, "Failure to Update UFSAR to Reflect Station Blackout Coping Time Basis.")

.03 Inadequate Testing of 125VDC MCCBs

Introduction:

The NRC identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control," for the licensee's failure to perform testing for safety-related 125VDC molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) to detect deterioration.

Description:

St. Lucie Nuclear Plant, Unit 1, was committed to IEEE 308-1970, "IEEE Standard Criteria for Class 1E Power Systems for Nuclear Power Generating Stations," per the UFSAR Section 8.1.2.2. IEEE 308-1970, Section 6.3, titled "Periodic Equipment Tests," specified in part, that "tests shall be performed at scheduled intervals to:

(1) Detect the deterioration of the system toward an unacceptable condition and; (2)

Demonstrate that standby power equipment and other components that are not exercised during normal operation of the station are operable."

When needed, MCCBs must rapidly isolate a faulted or overloaded circuit to prevent equipment damage. Therefore, for the safe operation of the electrical distribution

system equipment of a nuclear power plant, it is important to periodically verify their continued reliability. The licensee's periodic testing procedure for testing safety-related 125VDC MCCBs was 0-EMP-100.16, "Molded-Case Breaker Tests," Rev. 17. Step 6.1.6 of this procedure stated to cycle the MCCBs on and off three to five times prior to performing MCCB testing. Such testing does not provide information on the condition of the circuit breaker for trending purposes and could influence subsequent electro-mechanical testing. The team determined that cycling the breakers prior to performing the test as stated in the procedure could mask deterioration and degradation of the safety-related 125VDC MCCBs toward an unac ceptable condition as required by IEEE 308-1970, thereby adversely affecting the break ers' ability to perform their safety function when called upon. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as AR 2114404 and plans to make changes to the MCCB testing procedure.

Analysis:

The failure to perform testing for safety-related 125VDC MCCBs to detect deterioration in accordance with IEEE 308-1970, Section 6.3, was a performance deficiency and a failure to meet 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control."

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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, cycling the breakers multiple times before electro-mechanical testing could mask degradation of the circuit breakers and thus decrease the reliability of the breakers to perform their safety function when called upon. The team used IMC 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued June 19, 2012, for Mitigating Systems, and IMC 0612, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green), because it was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a structure, system, or component which did not maintain its functionality; 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 greater than its TS allowed outage time or two separat e safety systems out-of-service for greater than its TS allowed outage time; and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-TS trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XI, "Test Control," required, in part, that "A test program shall be established to assure that all testing required to

demonstrate that SSCs will perform satisfactorily in service is identified and performed in accordance with written test procedures which incorporate the requirements and acceptance limits contained in applicable design documents." UFSAR Section 8.1.2.2, stated the Class 1E power system conforms to IEEE 308-1970. Section 6.3 of IEEE 308-1970, titled "Periodic Equipment Tests," specified, in part, that "tests shall be performed at scheduled intervals to: (1) Detect the deterioration of the system toward an unacceptable condition." Contrary to the above, since 2007, the licensee failed to perform a testing program which identified all testing required to demonstrate that safety-related 125VDC MCCBs would perform satisfactorily in service in accordance with written test procedures which incorporated the requirements and acceptance limits contained in IEEE 308-1970, the applicable de sign document. The licensee plans to make changes to the procedure to ensure deterioration of the safety-related 125VDC MCCBs is adequately detected. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as AR 2114404. (NCV 05000335/2016008-03, "Inadequate Testing of 125VDC MCCBs.")

.04 Failure to Identify Degraded Condition of Unit 1 Electrical Equipment Room Supply Fan Gravity Dampers

Introduction:

The NRC identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," for the licensee's failure to identify a condition adverse to

quality, which prevented the Unit 1 EER supply fan dampers from performing their safety-related function to close.

Description:

The Unit 1 EER supply fans HVS-5A and HVS-5B are equipped with gravity dampers whose safety function is to close when the associated fan does not operate.

The two supply fans, HVS-5A and HVS-5B, discharge air to a common plenum, and the closure of the fan discharge damper prevents reverse airflow from the operating fan through the idle fan which would prevent a portion of the flow rate of the operating fan from reaching the EERs. The Unit 1 EERs consist of the A switchgear room, B switchgear room, static inverter room, cable spreading room, and two battery rooms. The St. Lucie Unit 1 UFSAR, Section 9.4.2.2.2, stated that with an outside air temperature of 93ºF, the ventilator air flowrates are sufficient to maintain all EERs less than 104ºF without the operation of either non-safety grade air conditioner and that analysis has demonstrated that temporary (and infrequent) temperature excursions of up to 120ºF will not affect the operability of safety-related equipment in the EERs.

In addition, licensee calculation PSL-1FJM-91-001, "PSL-1 RAB Electrical Equipment Rooms HVAC Computer Model Data Inputs and Outputs," Revision 2, stated that the design criteria of the EER ventilation system is to achieve a room temperature less than 104°F with an outside air temperature of 93°F.

Work Order 4014594601, performed on February 23, 2012, documented that the dampers would not close because the housing was newly painted internally and externally which hindered the damper weight effect, "but not the fan performance." The licensee's review of the work order failed to identify the error in the determination that fan performance was not affected and, therefore, a corrective action document was not issued. The team determined that the closure of the dampers is a safety-related function meant to prevent loss of airflow to the EERs due to the reverse flow of the operating fan through the idle fan, and that when the condition was identified, it should have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program.

Following the identification of this concern by the team, the licensee assessed the condition by shutting down one operating fan and observed that the gravity damper of the non-operating fan remained fully opened. The same observation was made when the second supply fan was shut down. The licensee was also unable to manually close

the dampers by applying force to their counterweights. Licensee calculation PSL-1FJM-91-001, did not have any margin to the design temperature with the full flow of one operating fan. With the degraded condition of the non-closing dampers, the team was concerned that the "short-circuited" air would not only reduce the airflow rate to the EERs, but also re-enter the suction side of the operating fan with an increased temperature, contributing to an increase in temperature of the EERs.

The licensee implemented compensatory measures to monitor the duct pressure during operator rounds to detect a supply fan failure, fabricate two blind plates to be installed in place of a non-functioning gravity dampers in the event that a fan fails, and pre-stage the blind plates with a tool box inside the supply fans plenum. Additionally, the licensee conducted field tests to quantify the reduction of supply flow caused by the failed-open dampers and developed a GOTHIC computer model of the EERs to determine the temperature increase caused by the loss of a supply fan. The results of the field tests determined supply airflow rates would have been degraded from 34,620 to 29,830 cubic feet per minute. The GOTHIC computer analysis determined that, during a design basis event and the single failure of a supply fan, the degraded dampers would result in an increase in maximum EER temperature from 108.8ºF to 112.2ºF, which represents an approximately 30% reduction in operating temperature margin. The licensee determined that the EERs would not be maintained under the design temperature of 104ºF, however, would remain less than 120ºF, and therefore, the emergency electrical equipment located in the rooms would remain capable of performing their functions during the short periods of time necessary.

Analysis:

The failure to identify a condition adverse to quality which would result in a reduction of flow rate and an increase in EER temperatures, upon loss of a supply fan, was a performance deficiency and a failure to meet 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action." This performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Equipment Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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 inability of the gravity dampers to close upon failure of one of the supply fans would result in room temperatures above the design temperature of 104ºF. The team used IMC 0609, 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued June 19, 2012, for Mitigating Systems, and IMC 0612, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP)for Findings At-Power," issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating SSC, and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," required, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality, such as failures, malfunctions, deficiencies, deviations, defective material and equipment, and nonconformances are promptly identified and corrected. Contrary to the above, since February 2012, the licensee failed to promptly identify and correct a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, the licensee identified that the gravity dampers of the HVS-5A and HVS-5B supply fans were not capable of closing, but did not enter the condition into the corrective action program. The licensee implemented compensatory measures to pre-stage blind plates to prevent short-circuiting of air in the event of a failure of a supply fan. This compensatory measure will remain in place until the licensee is able to replace both gravity dampers. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as ARs 2108868 and 2109116.

.05 Failure to Verify the Adequacy of Design of Unit 1 Electrical Equipment Room

Ventilation System

Introduction:

The NRC identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to verify the adequacy of the Unit 1 EER ventilation system design when performing a design calculation.

Description:

The St. Lucie Unit 1 UFSAR, Section 9.4.2.2.2, stated that with an outside air temperature of 93ºF, the ventilator air fl owrates are sufficient to maintain all EERs less than 104ºF without the operation of either non-safety grade air conditioner and that

analysis has demonstrated that temporary (and infrequent) temperature excursions of up to 120ºF will not affect the operability of safety-related equipment in the EERs. In addition, licensee calculation PSL-1FJM-91-001, "PSL-1 RAB Electrical Equipment Rooms HVAC Computer Model Data Inputs and Outputs," Revision 2, stated that the design criteria of the EER ventilation system is to achieve a room temperature less than 104°F with an outside air temperature of 93°F. The Unit 1 EERs consist of the A switchgear room, B switchgear room, static inverter room, cable spreading room, and two battery rooms. Calculation PSL-1FJM-91-001, evaluated the design basis cases of the EER ventilation system, which consist of all safety-related supply and exhaust fans in operation and no credit given for non-safety grade air conditioning units. The calculation also addressed the assumed worst-case single failure of the system, which was the loss of one of the redundant supply fans (HVS-5A or HVS-5B) and no credit given for non-safety related air conditioning units. The team questioned the validity of the assumption that failure of one of the two supply fans was the most limiting single failure because the failure of either EDG would cause the loss of one of the supply fans as well as half of all discharge fans.

As a result of the team's questions, the licensee developed a preliminary GOTHIC computer model of the EER ventilation system to address these additional single failure scenarios. The analysis reduced the originally assumed accident heat loads in the EERs and used best available flowrates gathered during field tests in 2010. Preliminary results demonstrated that, during a design basis event, the failure of a single supply fan was still the most limiting scenario, with elevated temperatures of up to 108.8ºF

experienced in the static inverter room and 107ºF in the cable spreading room, while the loss of the 1A EDG would result in a temperature of 108.6ºF in the static inverter room.

This increase of EER temperatures from 104ºF to 108.8ºF represents an approximately 30% reduction in operating temperature margin. Based on these results, it was determined that the EERs would not be maintained under the intended design temperature of 104ºF, however, would remain less than 120ºF, and therefore, the emergency electrical equipment located in the rooms would remain capable of performing their functions during the short periods of time necessary. As a result of this analysis, the licensee planned to re-balance flow rates in the EERs or revise the equipment qualification temperatures for equipment located in the EERs.

Analysis:

The failure to verify the adequacy of design of the EER ventilation system was a performance deficiency and a failure to meet 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control." The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Design Control attribute of the Mitigating Systems 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 re-analysis of the ventilation system resulted in a reduction in temperature margin, which could impact the reliability and capability of emergency electrical equipment in the EERs. The team used IMC 0609, Att. 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued June 19, 2012, for Mitigating Systems, and IMC 0609, App. A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design of a mitigating SSC, and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," required, in part, that "design control measures s hall provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, such as by the use of simplified calculational methods." Licensee calculation PSL-1FJM-91-001, "PSL-1 RAB Electrical Equipment Rooms HVAC Computer Model Data Inputs and Outputs," Revision 2, stated that the design criteria of the EER ventilation system was to achieve a room temperature less than 104°F with an outside air temperature of 93°F. Contrary to the above, since original licensing, the licensee failed to verify the adequacy of design of the EER ventilation system. Specifically, the design calculation did not evaluate the ability of the system to maintain the EERs within design temperatures. The licensee planned to re-balance flow rates in the EERs or revise the equipment qualification temperatures for equipment located in the EERs. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as ARs 2111358 and 2117193. (NCV 05000335/2016008-05, "Failure to Verify the Adequacy of Design of Unit 1 Electrical Equipment Room Ventilation System.")

.3 Operating Experience

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed three operating experience issues for applicability at the St. Lucie Plant. The team performed an independent review for these issues and, where applicable, assessed the licensee's evaluation and disposition of each item. The issues that received a detailed review by the team included:

  • Generic Safety Issue, Item B-56, "Diesel Reliability"

b. Findings

.01 Failure to Provide a Missile-Protected Intertie

Introduction:

The NRC identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) for the licensee's failure to properly provide a completely missile-protected intertie from the Unit 1 diesel oil transfer pumps to the Unit 2 diesel oil storage tanks.

Description:

In Supplement 2 (dated March 1, 1976) of the operating license safety evaluation report (SER), the NRC accepted a tornado-missile protected intertie as defined in Amendment 47 of the licensee's final safety analysis report (FSAR) as a means of meeting the intent of Regulatory Guide 1.76, "Design-Basis Tornado and Tornado Missiles for Nuclear Power Plants." Amendment 47 (dated July 9, 1975), as well as Appendix 3F of the current UFSAR, stated that a "missile-protected intertie will be provided between the Unit 1 diesel oil transfer pumps and the Unit 2 diesel oil storage

tanks."

During a walk down of the diesel oil fuel system, the team noted that current design of the system and intertie does not reflect the configuration committed to by the licensee.

While an intertie does exist between the Unit 1 diesel oil transfer pumps and the Unit 2 diesel oil storage tanks, it does not accurately conform to the design described in the FSAR that was approved by the NRC in Supplement 2 of the operating license SER. Specifically, a section of piping that serves as the flow path for the intertie (between the Unit 1A and 1B diesel oil storage tanks) is not tornado-missile protected, and failure of that section to a tornado missile would prevent the intertie from completing its intended function. As a result of this finding, the licensee entered ARs 2114557 and 2109049 into their corrective action program.

Analysis:

The failure to provide a tornado-missile protected intertie as described in the FSAR to meet the commitment of Supplement 2 of the operating license SER was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it adversely affected the Protection Against External Factors attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective which ensures the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events. Specifically, a postulated tornado missile could damage the unprotected section of piping, rendering the intertie unable to complete its intended function, thereby reducing the licensee's capability to mitigate a design basis tornado event. The team used IMC 0609, Att. 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," issued June 19, 2012, for Mitigating Systems, and IMC 0609, App. A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power,"

issued June 19, 2012, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve the total loss of any safety function, nor was it identified by the licensee through probabilistic risk assessment, Individual Plant

Evaluation of External Events (IPEEE), or similar analysis that would have contributed to external event initiated core damage accident sequences. This finding was not assigned a cross-cutting aspect because the issue did not reflect current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

This finding does not involve enforcement action because no violation of a regulatory requirement was identified. (FIN 05000335/2016008-06, "Failure to Provide a Missile-Protected Intertie.")

OTHER ACTIVITIES

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit

On March 4, 2016, the team presented the inspection results to Mr. Robert Coffey and other members of the licensee's staff. On April 11, 2016, a telephone re-exit was conducted to present the final inspection results to Mr. Mike Snyder and other members of the licensee's staff. Proprietary information that was reviewed during the inspection was returned to the licensee or destroyed in accordance with prescribed controls.
