==Dear Mr. Pollock:==
==Dear Mr. Pollock:==
On December 31, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit 3. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on January 8, 2009, with you and other members of your staff.
On December 31, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Indian Point Nuclear Generating Unit 2. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on January 9, 2009, with you and other members of your staff.


The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations, and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. This report documents one self-revealing finding of very low safety significance (Green). This finding was determined to be a violation of NRC requirements. Additionally, a licensee-identified violation, which was determined to be of very low safety significance, is listed in the report. However, because the findings are of the very low safety significance and are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these findings as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest any NCV in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN.: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region 1; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Indian Point Unit 3.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations, and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.


In addition, the inspectors reviewed Licensee Event Report 50-286/2008-001, which described the circumstances associated with a 31 safety injection (SI) pump breaker that did not close on January 27, 2008, during routine operation of the pump. As a result of this breaker problem, the SI pump was inoperable and determined to have exceeded the allowed outage time of 72 hours detailed in technical specification (TS) 3.5.2, and therefore is a violation of TS. A risk evaluation was performed by the regional staff and the issue was determined to be of very low safety significance. Although this issue constitutes a violation of NRC requirements, the NRC determined that the breaker subcomponent problem that resulted in the inoperability of the SI pump was not within Entergy's ability to foresee and correct, and as a result, the NRC did not identify a performance deficiency associated with this condition. The NRC's assessment considered: (1) the scope of maintenance performed on the SI pump breaker by Entergy was appropriate and up to date, (2) the breaker failure mechanism would not be reasonably identified through routine Entergy processes or quality assurance measures, (3) operating experience information available to Entergy did not identify the potential for the subcomponent problem that was experienced, and (4) Entergy implemented timely and effective corrective actions to prevent recurrence of the issue. Based on the results of the NRC's inspection and assessment, I have been authorized, after consultation with the Director, Office of Enforcement, and the Regional Administrator, to exercise enforcement discretion in accordance with Section VII.B.6 of the Enforcement Policy and refrain from issuing enforcement for this violation (EA-08-354). In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room of the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of the NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web Site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified.

====a. Inspection Scope====
(71121.03 - 9 samples)
During December 15-19, 2008, the inspectors conducted the following activities to evaluate the operability and accuracy of radiation monitoring instrumentation, and the adequacy of the respiratory protection program for issuing self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to emergency response personnel. Implementation of these programs was reviewed by the inspectors against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable industry standards, and Entergy's procedures.
 
1) The inspectors reviewed the UFSAR to identify area radiation monitors that are installed at Indian Point Units 2 and 3 for the protection of workers, and reviewed the calibration procedure and current calibration records for selected instrumentation, including Unit 2 plant radiation monitors; main steam line 10 Enclosure radiation monitors (R-28, R-29, R-30, R-31), refuel floor area radiation monitor (R-5), containment high-range radiation and noble gas monitors (R-25, R-26), gaseous and particulate containment radiation monitors (R-42, R-41), in-core area radiation monitor (R-7), steam generator blow down radiation monitor (R-49); Unit 3 plant radiation monitors; main steam line radiation monitors (R-62A, R-62B, R-62C, R-62D), refuel floor area radiation monitor (R-5), containment high-range radiation and noble gas monitors (R-25, R-26), gaseous and particulate containment radiation monitors (R-12, R-11), in-core area radiation monitor (R-7), and steam generator blow down radiation monitor (R-19). The inspectors discussed the monitoring system health reports and instrument reliability trends with the system engineer.
 
2) The inspectors identified various radiation detection instruments used at Indian Point used for job coverage for work in radiologically significant areas, including continuous air monitors and whole body counters. Instruments evaluated were 49 electronic dosimeters, 13 radiation survey instruments, 12 extendable probe survey instruments, 6 neutron radiation survey instrument, 6 continuous air monitors, 4 portal monitors, 7 beta/alpha counters and 2 whole body counters.
 
3) Current calibration records, applicable calibration procedures, operability, and alarm set points were reviewed by the inspectors for the instruments identified above. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the applicable calibrators utilized for appropriate instrument calibration geometries and National Institute for Science and Technology standard traceability. They included: Shepherd 81-12B beam source calibrators, Shepherd 142-10 panoramic calibrator, Shepherd 149 neutron source calibrator and Shepherd 1000B box source calibrator. The plant source term was reviewed by the inspectors to determine whether calibration sources being used were representative.
 
4) Radiological incidents involving internal exposures identified by condition reports for 2008 were reviewed by the inspectors. In addition, dosimetry electronic records were queried for any internal exposures >50 mrem committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE). None were identified for further review.
 
5) The inspectors reviewed condition reports with respect to radiation protection program deficiencies to determine if the deficiencies were appropriately characterized and corrected commensurate with their safety significance.
 
6) Based on the condition reports reviewed, no repetitive deficiencies were identified for further follow-up.
 
7) With respect to the RP portable instruments listed in 3) above, the instrument
=s calibration expiration and response check stickers were reviewed by the inspectors. The applicable response check beta-source and instrument sign-out procedures were also reviewed. The inspectors queried radiation protection technicians regarding appropriate instrument selection and observed self verification of instrument operability prior to use.
 
8) The inspectors sampled emergency plan-specified self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) equipment and qualified users based on Indian Point Energy Center Emergency Plan documents and included inspection of selected SCBAs 11 Enclosure and air bottle cascade systems located inside or adjacent to both the Unit 2 and Unit 3 main control rooms. The inspectors verified SCBA qualification records for select on-shift reactor operators were current. The inspectors also verified that air used to fill the SCBAs met the Grade D quality criteria of the Compressed Gas Association. The inspectors queried on shift reactor operators to determine the storage location of required spectacles.
 
9) The inspectors examined selected SCBA units for periodic air cylinder hydrostatic testing and maintenance records. The inspectors also performed a review of approved replacement parts documentation and certification of the repair personnel.

===.1 Routine Problem Identification & Resolution Program Review===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems," and to identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of all items entered into Entergy's corrective action program. The review was accomplished by accessing Entergy's computerized database for condition reports, and attending condition report screening meetings.
 
In accordance with the baseline inspection modules, the inspectors selected corrective action program items across the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones for further follow-up and review. The inspectors assessed Entergy's threshold for problem identification, adequacy of the causal analysis, extent of condition reviews, and operability determinations, and timeliness of the associated corrective actions.
 
====b. Findings====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
===.2 Semi-Annual Trend Review===
{{IP sample|IP=IP 71152|count=1}}
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspectors performed a semi-annual review to identify trends that might indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors included in this review, repetitive or closely-related issues that may have been documented by Entergy outside of the corrective action program, such as trend reports, performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance or corrective action program backlogs. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's corrective action program database for the third and fourth quarters of 2008 to assess the total number and significance of condition reports (CRs) written in various subject areas. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's corrective action, engineering, and maintenance quarterly trend reports for the second and third quarters of 2008 to ensure Entergy was appropriately evaluating and trending adverse conditions.
 
The inspectors focused on an adverse trend in through-wall leaks identified in service water piping. The inspectors reviewed CRs, causal evaluations, maintenance plans, business plans, and interviewed station personnel to assess whether Entergy identified the adverse trend and developed appropriate corrective actions to address the conditions.
 
b. Assessment and Observations No findings of significance were identified.
 
13 Enclosure Entergy identified three leaks in service water system blowdown piping on August 19, 2008 and determined the leaks were pinhole size that resulted in wetting of the pipe surface. Entergy entered the issue into the CAP and performed an immediate operability assessment that concluded the piping was operable and did not impact the pipe's structural integrity. Entergy performed extent-of-condition walkdowns in the service water intake area and discovered additional leaks on service water system blowdown piping welds. Entergy personnel performed volumetric non-destructive testing of the pipes in accordance with their procedures and determined that these additional leaks were minor localized defects that did not impact structural integrity and, therefore, the service water systems they supported remained operable. Entergy performed the actions described in ASME Code Case N-513-2 for the ASME Class III service water piping and established monitoring frequencies and flaw acceptance criteria. Entergy's short term corrective actions included: performing engineering walkdowns of all stainless steel piping in the service water system, establishing daily walkdowns of identified flaws, and performing volumetric inspection on the identified flaws as required by ASME Code. Entergy identified long term actions that include replacement of the stainless steel service water blowdown piping with a more corrosion-resistant material as Entergy personnel determined that the 304 stainless steel blowdown piping is susceptible to pitting corrosion due to the brackish water of the Hudson River. The replacement is planned to be completed prior to the next refueling outage in the spring of 2010.
 
Additionally, as part of Entergy's extent-of-condition walkdowns, Entergy identified several leaks on stainless steel service water piping servicing radiation monitors for the containment fan coil units. Similar to the service water blowdown piping, Entergy determined the pinhole leaks were on weld material. However, because the leaks appeared on socket welds and the flaws could not be accurately characterized, ASME Code Case N-513-2 was not applicable and Entergy declared the radiation monitors inoperable and repaired the flaws. Entergy determined that the leaks were caused by pitting corrosion in the 300 series stainless steel pipe welds and the brackish water of the Hudson River. Entergy implemented corrective actions that included immediate repair of all leaking welds and development of an Engineering Change Request package that will replace the radiation monitor piping with a highly corrosion resistant material (AL6XN).
 
On September 16, 2008, the inspectors identified a small through-wall leak on service water piping supplying cooling water to the containment fan-coil units (FCUs). Specifically, the inspectors identified a pinhole leak that resulted in a wetted pipe surface on a weld neck flange for a 2-inch carbon-steel drain line connected to a 10-inch supply header to the 22 FCU. Entergy performed an operability assessment for the containment penetration and supported the evaluation with confirmatory ultrasonic tests and structural calculations. Entergy determined the cause of this failure was the result of improperly coated weld surfaces internal to the pipe that occurred in 2002. Entergy determined the maintenance procedures, at that time, used to prepare the piping prior to welding did not contain adequate instructions for properly preparing a pipe or weld surface prior to the application of the corrosion resistant coating. Entergy developed procedure 0-SYS-409-GEN, "Belzona and Enecon Metal Repair Applications," in 2005 to improve surface preparation and application techniques. Entergy implemented short term actions to monitor the leakage daily, perform 90-day follow-up ultrasonic testing on the leak location, and perform extent-of-condition walkdowns and UT measurements on the corresponding welds of the 21, 23, 24, and 25 FCUs. Entergy's long term corrective actions includes procedure revisions, repair of the weld during the next refueling outage, 14 Enclosure and plans to visually inspect the welds on the other FCUs during the next refueling outage.
 
The inspectors determined that there was reasonable opportunity for Entergy to identify and correct the 22 FCU leak prior to NRC identification as required per 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, criterion XVI, "Corrective Action;" however, the inspectors determined, based on subsequent testing of the 22 FCU performed by Entergy, that the operability of the 22 FCU and the corresponding containment penetration was not impacted. Therefore, this violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B is considered to be of minor significance and not subject to NRC enforcement.
 
In general and notwithstanding the NRC inspector-identified minor leak, the inspectors determined that Entergy appropriately identified the adverse trend in service water piping corrosion issues in the corrective action program and documented operability assessments for the service water leaks that were supported by a sufficient technical basis. The inspectors determined that Entergy performed appropriate causal evaluations and implemented extent-of-condition reviews to understand the corrosion mechanisms that existed in service water piping and the extent of the issues. The inspectors also determined that Entergy identified and implemented or planned corrective actions commensurate with the requirements of their corrective action program and the ASME Code. Additionally, the inspectors observed that corrective actions included consideration for the safety significance of the issues.
 
===.3 Aggregate Impact of Operator Workarounds===
{{IP sample|IP=IP 71152|count=1}}
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspectors conducted a review of the aggregate impact of operator burdens and workarounds. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's implementation of procedures OAP-45, "Operator Burden Program," Revision 1. The inspectors conducted control room walkdowns and interviewed plant operators to determine the impact of deficiencies on operator response to plant events.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors verified that operator workarounds and burdens were entered into the corrective action program at an appropriate threshold and that corrective actions were planned or taken commensurate with their safety significance.
 
===.4 Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue Review: Human Performance - Procedure===
 
Adequacy (71152 - 1 sample)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspectors reviewed Entergy's actions to address the Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue (SCCI) in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy. The inspectors' review focused on Entergy's progress in addressing the SCCI since their implementation of a revised action plan in May 2008. The inspectors evaluated Entergy's performance improvement plans and actions using inspection guidance in Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems."  Specifically, the inspectors 15 Enclosure assessed Entergy's progress in resolving the cross-cutting issue by evaluating whether Entergy's internal milestones were being monitored and consistently met and whether adjustments in approach were made when necessary. This inspection focused on the progress made since the PI&R sample inspection conducted in October 2008 (NRC Inspection Report 05000247/2008013 and 05000286/2008011).
 
The inspectors conducted a review of the applicable condition reports (CRs), corrective action assignments (CAs), focused self-assessments, Quality Assurance group assessments, and causal evaluations for the substantive cross-cutting issue. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's performance indicators related to their performance improvement plan; reviewed a sample of revised procedures; conducted a series of interviews with station management, procedure writers and reviewers, maintenance technicians, and operators in order to assess the adequacy of the performance plan and effectiveness of corrective actions.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
The inspectors determined that Entergy continued to make progress in effectively implementing their corrective action plans that address the substantive cross-cutting issue in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy.
 
The inspectors concluded that Entergy's corrective action plans were reasonable in scope because they addressed procedures that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue. Entergy's corrective action plans included Operations, Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance, and I&C Maintenance procedures. The procedure upgrade project portion of Entergy's corrective action plans focused on risk significant components and actions in operating procedures. The inspectors determined the procedure upgrade project scope appropriately included operating procedures related to initiating events, single point vulnerabilities, and integrated plant operating procedures. The inspectors observed that station training was developed and provided for the individuals involved in the procedure upgrade project and their management. The inspectors also observed that procedure reviews were being conducted for Security, Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and Engineering procedures to improve the quality of procedures in those areas.
 
The inspectors confirmed previous NRC observations, through interviews with Entergy staff, that the station has shifted the ownership of this project from the support organizations to the line organization. Entergy personnel indicated this organizational alignment has been a significant factor in the increased acceptance and participation from plant workers, and produced a noticeable improvement in revised procedure quality. The inspectors observed that several personnel interviewed commented that the human performance training simulator is an effective tool, and assisted procedure writers with the identification of human performance error traps in existing procedures.
 
The inspectors concluded that the realignment of the procedure upgrade project resulted in enhanced project accountability and quality output.
 
With respect to the progress of the procedure upgrade project, Entergy completed Phase I of the project ahead of their internal schedule and started Phase II. Phase I consisted of operations procedures associated with the top three risk significant systems 16 Enclosure for Units 2 and 3. Phase II of the procedure upgrade project included the remaining top 10 plant risk significant systems, integrated plant operating procedures, procedures which involved single point vulnerabilities and initiating events. Current Entergy plans and progress indicate that the Phase II portion of the procedure upgrade project will be completed by June 2009, several months ahead of the corrective action plan schedule. The inspectors reviewed a sample of the revised Phase I and Phase II procedures and determined that significant revisions were made and the results met the quality and procedure standards described in Entergy's action plan.
 
The inspectors also observed that the Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance procedure upgrade project and the I&C Maintenance procedure development project made progress that was consistent with internal action plan schedules and milestones. The inspectors determined that the projects continue to receive the appropriate level of resources and management review and support to ensure completion of these projects.
 
The inspectors determined that human error awareness and prevention actions were being implemented by Entergy to address the human performance aspects that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue in procedure adequacy. The inspectors determined that implementation of training, specifically the human performance training simulator, was appropriate to reinforce human error prevention techniques being applied in the plant.
 
The inspectors concluded Entergy developed appropriate monitoring measures and performance indicators to assess corrective action effectiveness. The inspectors observed that Entergy utilized these tools to provide initial feedback on corrective action implementation. For example, the inspectors determined that the performance indicators, related to procedure completion status and procedure feedback process backlog, were an effective tool for monitoring station progress in these areas.
 
Additionally, the inspectors concluded that self-assessments were an effective tool for corrective action adjustments and for evaluation of internal and external stakeholder recommendations. Entergy has adjusted the corrective action plan and procedure upgrade project scope to adequately incorporate stakeholder recommendations.
 
5. Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue Review: Problem Identification and Resolution -
Implementation of Corrective Actions (71152 - 1 sample)
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspectors reviewed Entergy's action plan to address the Substantive Cross Cutting Issue (SCCI) identified for Unit 2 in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution related to implementation of effective corrective actions. This SCCI was identified in the NRC's 2008 Annual Assessment letter [ADAMS Ref. No. ML080610015] and was continued in the NRC 2008 Mid Cycle Performance Review [ADAMS Ref. No. ML082470316].
 
The inspectors conducted a review of the applicable condition reports (CRs), corrective action assignments (CAs), focused self-assessments, Quality Assurance group assessments, root cause analyses, common cause analyses, and apparent cause determinations for the substantive cross-cutting issue. The inspectors also reviewed the CRs and corrective actions associated with the four NCVs which contributed to this cross-cutting issue and reviewed a sample of corrective actions for NRC findings in 2007 17 Enclosure and 2008 to determine if a trend existed. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's performance in order to assess the adequacy of the performance plan and effectiveness of corrective actions.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
There were no findings of significance.
 
The inspectors determined that Entergy continued to make progress in effectively implementing their corrective action plans, specific to the substantive cross-cutting issue in Problem Identification and Resolution related to implementation of corrective actions at Unit 2.
 
The inspectors observed progress made in developing and implementing a site-wide action plan to address the issue. The inspectors concluded that the performance improvement plan developed by Entergy was appropriately focused and sufficiently broad to address the cross-cutting aspect of implementation of corrective actions. Additionally, Entergy is approaching their corrective actions from a site-wide perspective (Units 2 and 3) and implemented changes in the processes and level of management review to ensure the issue was appropriately addressed for both units. Specific corrective actions identified by Entergy included the following: administrative procedure revisions to change corrective action tracking; revised procedure requirements for corrective action review board (CARB) review of level 2 and higher tier causal evaluations; revised corrective action requirements for post-closure CARB review of cause evaluations completed over the past year to include verification that that effectiveness reviews were scheduled, completed, and reviewed by CARB for all significant conditions adverse to quality and violations of regulatory requirements. The inspectors observed that these changes were implemented and further observed management review and challenge of several causal evaluations and effectiveness reviews.
 
Entergy developed performance indicators to track and trend the implementation of the corrective actions. The inspectors reviewed the data from the performance indicators and concluded that the performance indicators were effective and an indication that corrective actions were identifying areas for improvement. The inspectors also determined that Entergy conducted focused self assessments and benchmarking surveys as additional measures to verify planned actions were sufficiently effective.

{{IP sample|IP=IP 71153|count=1}}
 
===.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000247/2008-002-00, Technical Specification Prohibited Condition Due to Exceeding the Allowed Completion Time for an Inoperable Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relay Caused by Improper Relay Wiring===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
On March 28, 2008, Entergy identified an improperly wired safety injection (SI) logic relay during troubleshooting of a high resistance contact in the relay. Specifically, Entergy determined that 23 Containment Fan Cooler Unit (FCU) breaker was not wired to receive a closing signal from the SI relay associated with the electric bus that supplies 18 Enclosure its power. The 23 FCU is powered from bus 2A, and is designed to receive a sequenced start relay during an SI from the 2A bus SI relay. However, in this case, Entergy identified that 23 FCU would have received its start signal from the 5A bus SI relay. Therefore, if bus 5A was de-energized during an SI, 23 FCU would not receive an automatic sequenced start signal as designed. In this scenario, 23 FCU would still be available for manual start by the operators. Entergy determined the incorrect wiring configuration was a result of an improperly implemented design change by the original plant installer in 1973. The incorrect wiring was never detected during subsequent testing because all four safety bus SI relays are tested simultaneously during biannual SI blackout testing.
 
Entergy entered this issue into their corrective action program, corrected the relay wiring configuration, and performed an extent-of-condition review of other SI relays. No additional instances of incorrect wiring were identified. The inspectors reviewed the LER and verified the corrective actions were adequate. The enforcement aspects of this finding are discussed in section 4OA7. This LER is closed.

==4OA5 Other Activities==
 
===.1 Implementation of Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/176 - Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The objective of TI 2515/176, "Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing," is to gather information to assess the adequacy of nuclear power plant emergency diesel generator endurance and margin testing as prescribed in plant-specific technical specifications (TS). The inspectors reviewed emergency diesel generator ratings, design basis event load calculations, surveillance testing requirements, and emergency diesel generator vendor's specifications and gathered information in accordance with TI 2515/176.
 
The inspector assessment and information gathered while completing this TI was discussed with licensee personnel. This information was forwarded on to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation for further review and evaluation.
 
====b. Findings====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
===.2 TI 2515/173, Review of the Implementation of the Industry Ground Water Protection Voluntary Initiative===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
An NRC assessment was performed the week of August 11, 2008 of Entergy's implementation of the Nuclear Energy Institute - Voluntary Ground Water Protection Initiative (dated August 2007, ADAMS Ref. No. ML072610036). Entergy evaluated work practices that could lead to leaks and spills, and performed an evaluation of systems, 19 Enclosure structures, and components that contain licensed radioactive material to determine potential leak or spill mechanisms.
 
Entergy completed a site characterization of geology and hydrology to determine the predominant ground water gradients and potential pathways for ground water migration from on-site locations to off-site locations. An on-site ground water monitoring program was implemented to monitor for potential licensed radioactive leakage into groundwater. The ground water monitoring results are being reported in the annual effluent and/or environmental monitoring report.
 
(http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/ops-experience/tritium/plant-info.html)  Entergy prepared procedures for the decision making process for potential remediation of leaks and spills, including consideration of the long term decommissioning impacts. Records of leaks and spills are being recorded in Entergy's decommissioning files in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(g).
 
Entergy identified appropriate local and state officials and conducted briefings on Entergy's ground water protection initiative. Protocols have been established for notification to these local and state officials regarding detection of leaks and spills.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
===.3 Ground-Water Contamination Review===
 
====a. Inspection Scope====
The inspectors reviewed plans, procedures, and remediation activities affecting the contaminated ground water condition at Indian Point, relative to NRC regulatory requirements, as authorized by the NRC Executive Director of Operations in a Reactor Oversight Process deviation memorandum dated December 19, 2007 (ADAMS Accession number ML073480290). The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's performance relative to remediation of the principal source of groundwater contamination including observation of the draining and sludge removal of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools, the radioactive waste processing of the fuel pool water and residual sludge materials, and reviewed the radioactive liquid effluent release accounting and dose calculations resulting from these activities. The inspection included onsite inspections on September 18, 2008; October 10, 2008; October 14-15, 2008; and November 17-18, 2008.
 
====b. Findings and Observations====
No findings of significance were identified.
 
Following the removal of Unit 1 spent fuel to dry cask storage, Entergy established special radioactive liquid processing and sampling equipment for conducting the drain down of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools. Between September 15, 2008 and November 7, 2008, approximately 500,000 gallons of water were drained and processed which included pool surface rinse water used during sludge removal activities. The liquid processing equipment was designed to clarify the pool water prior to discharge into the 20 Enclosure Hudson River. The liquid processing system consisted of a series of sequential processing modules which included a filter cartridge, a 25 ft³ mixed (cation and anion) demineralizer resin vessel followed by five 12.5 ft³ supplemental water polishing units consisting of an activated charcoal vessel, a cation demineralizer resin vessel, a mixed demineralizer resin vessel, a cesium-specific filter media vessel, and finally another activated charcoal vessel. The filtered and demineralized water was sampled by an automatic composite sampler for monitoring and analysis prior to the effluent stream release into the discharge canal. Residual sludge from the bottom of the spent fuel pools was mixed with water and sluiced into a 120 ft 3 polyethylene disposal container. Liquids were removed from this solid waste container by periodically pumping down the container through the self-contained dewatering system contained in the disposal container. These liquid wastes were subsequently processed through the same liquid processing system as described above, however, due to the potentially higher radioactive contaminants, the final processed water was redirected to a Unit 1 waste collection tank to allow for additional waste water treatment prior to discharge. The 120 ft 3 disposal container of solid waste was classified as Class B waste and will be stored onsite until an offsite disposal facility becomes available.
 
The inspectors determined that treated and discharged water was sampled and properly accounted by Entergy to result in less than 1 Curie of radioactivity discharged consisting mostly of tritium, and small amounts of Kr-85 and Cs-137. The resulting public dose associated from this liquid discharge activity was 0.00007 mrem to the whole body and 0.00012 mrem to the highest organ (teen/liver). The inspectors confirmed these values represented small fractions of the liquid discharge limits of 3 mrem/yr whole body and 10 mrem/yr maximum organ dose limits specified in 10 CFR 50, Appendix I.

==4OA6 Meetings==
 
===Exit Meeting Summary===
 
On January 9, 2008, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Joseph Pollock and other Entergy staff members, who acknowledged the inspection results presented. Entergy did not identify any material as proprietary.
 
{{a|4OA7}}
==4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations==
 
The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by Entergy and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as a NCV.
 
Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.6 requires, in part, a minimum of three trains of containment fan cooler units (FCU) to be operable in mode 1. Contrary to this requirement, the required number of FCUs was not operable in mode 1, assuming a single failure of one emergency diesel generator (EDG) to supply power to the 5A bus during a design basis accident, coincident with a loss of offsite power. Specifically, on March 28, 2008, Entergy identified an incorrect wiring configuration that would have prevented the automatic start of the 23 FCU. This condition, coincident with a single failure of an EDG during a design basis accident, coincident with a loss of offsite power, would have prevented the automatic start of at least three FCUs.
 
This issue was corrected on March 28, 2008 and entered into Entergy's corrective action 21 Enclosure program as IP2-2008-01482. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the mitigating systems cornerstone and impacted the objective of ensuring the reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) based on IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings," because the finding did not represent an actual loss of safety function of the FCUs for greater than their allowed outage time.

: [[34 CB]] [[exhaust fan experienced a step change in its vibration signature on December 10, 2007. This step change in fan vibration was documented by Entergy in condition report (]]
CR)-IP3-2007-04535, and vibration readings were trended thereafter by Entergy staff. In June 2008, the 34 CB exhaust fan bearings were replaced and a fan alignment was performed with the work order previously generated in 2007. Subsequently, on July 21,
Enclosure 2008, Entergy identified elevated vibrations on the
: [[34 CB]] [[exhaust fan, and replaced the 34]]
: [[CB]] [[exhaust fan belts and performed an alignment between the fan and motor. On August 20, 2008, Entergy identified that the]]
: [[34 CB]] [[exhaust fan shaft was rubbing the fan housing and entered the issue into the]]
: [[CAP]] [[as]]
: [[CR]] [[-]]
IP3-2008-2004. In addition, due to excessive noise and vibrations from the 34 CB exhaust fans, Entergy removed the fan
from service. Following replacement of the fan bearings, belts, shaft and pulleys, the fan was returned to service on September 30, 2008. During Entergy's investigations following the August 2008 bearing issues, Entergy personnel determined that the primary cause of the more frequent bearing failures in the
: [[CB]] [[exhaust fan was inadequate application of torque on the 34]]
: [[CB]] [[exhaust fan pillow block bolts, which resulted in fan shaft movement that affected the alignment and caused degradation of the fan bearings. Specifically, Entergy determined that their technical evaluation performed in 1998 and the]]
: [[CB]] [[exhaust fan bearing replacement procedure 3-]]
FAN-011-CBF, "Inspection, Cleaning, and Repair of Control Building Exhaust Fans and Louvers L-319 and L-320," did not reference the manufacturer recommended torque value or guidance for the pillow block bearing housing bolts.
Entergy also determined that incompatible grease was used to lubricate the bearings and contributed to more frequent bearing failures. Specifically, the pillow block bearings were supplied from the manufacturer pre-lubricated with Timken Ball Bearing grease (No. 2 polyurea-based grease). The grease used by Entergy during installation and periodic lubrication of these bearings was Mobilith AW-2 grease, which Entergy later
determined to be incompatible with the grease used by the manufacturer. Entergy determined the incompatible greases reduced their lubrication properties and likely degraded bearing performance and resulted in elevated equipment vibration. The inspectors determined that Entergy's failure to establish appropriate torque
requirements in the applicable maintenance procedures, including establishment of an appropriate bearing lubricant, was a performance deficiency. Additionally, Entergy had opportunities to evaluate and correct these performance issues in May 2007, December 2007, and July 2008, in response to elevated vibrations associated with the CB exhaust fan, as well as a bearing replacement that occurred in June 2008.
Analysis:  The inspectors determined the finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure availability, reliability, and capability of
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, Entergy did not ensure the reliability of the
: [[34 CB]] [[exhaust fan by applying improper torque to the pillow block bolts to preclude movement during equipment operation and usage of incompatible grease to lubricate the bearings. The significance of this finding was evaluated using a Phase 1]]
SDP screening and was determined to be
of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not a design or qualification deficiency; it did not represent a loss of system safety function; and it did not screen as potentially risk significant due to seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating events.
The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in problem identification and resolution in that Entergy did not thoroughly evaluate problems such that the resolutions addressed the causes when the 34 CB exhaust fan exhibited high vibrations on an increased frequency. (P.1(c))

: [[4OA]] [[2 Identification and Resolution of Problems  .1 Routine Problem Identification and Resolution (]]
PI&R) Program Review
a. Inspection Scope  As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems," and to identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of all items entered into Entergy's corrective action program. The review was accomplished by accessing Entergy's computerized database for condition reports, and attending condition report screening
meetings. In accordance with the baseline inspection procedures, the inspectors selected corrective action program items across the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones for further follow-up and review. The inspectors assessed
Entergy's threshold for problem identification, the adequacy of the cause analysis, extent of condition reviews, operability determinations, and the timeliness of the associated corrective actions. The condition reports reviewed during this inspection are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified.  .2 Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue Review:  Human Performance - Procedure Adequacy (71152 - 1 sample)    a. Inspection Scope  The inspectors reviewed Entergy's actions to address the Substantive Cross-Cutting
Issue (SCCI) in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy. The inspectors' review focused on Entergy's progress in addressing the
: [[SC]] [[]]
CI since their implementation of a revised action plan in May 2008. The inspectors evaluated Entergy's performance improvement plans and actions using inspection guidance in Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems."  Specifically, the inspectors assessed Entergy's progress in resolving the cross-cutting issue by evaluating whether Entergy's internal milestones were being monitored and consistently met and whether
adjustments in approach were made when necessary. This inspection focused on the progress made since the
: [[PI&R]] [[sample inspection conducted in October 2008 (]]
NRC Inspection Report 05000247/2008013 and 05000286/2008011). The inspectors conducted a review of the applicable condition reports (CRs), corrective
action assignments, focused self-assessments, Quality Assurance group assessments, and causal evaluations for the substantive cross-cutting issue. The inspectors also
Enclosure reviewed Entergy's performance indicators related to their performance improvement plan; reviewed a sample of revised procedures; conducted a series of interviews with station management, procedure writers and reviewers, maintenance technicians, and operators in order to assess the adequacy of the performance plan and effectiveness of corrective actions. b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors determined that Entergy continued to make progress in effectively
implementing their corrective action plans that address the substantive cross-cutting issue in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy.        The inspectors concluded that Entergy's corrective action plans were reasonable in scope because they addressed procedures that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue. Entergy's corrective action plans included Operations, Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance, and I&C Maintenance procedures. The procedure upgrade
project portion of Entergy's corrective action plans focused on risk significant components and actions in operating procedures. The inspectors determined the procedure upgrade project scope appropriately included operating procedures related to initiating events, single point vulnerabilities, and integrated plant operating procedures. The inspectors observed that station training was developed and provided for the
individuals involved in the procedure upgrade project and their management. The inspectors also observed that procedure reviews were being conducted for Security, Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and Engineering procedures to improve the quality of procedures in those areas.
The inspectors confirmed previous NRC observations, through interviews with Entergy staff, that the station has shifted the ownership of this project from the support organizations to the line organization. Entergy personnel indicated this organizational alignment has been a significant factor in the increased acceptance and participation from plant workers, and produced a noticeable improvement in revised procedure
quality. The inspectors observed that several personnel interviewed commented that the human performance training simulator is an effective tool, and assisted procedure writers with the identification of human performance error traps in existing procedures. The inspectors concluded that the realignment of the procedure upgrade project resulted in enhanced project accountability and quality output.      With respect to the progress of the procedure upgrade project, Entergy completed Phase I of the project ahead of their internal schedule and started Phase
: [[II.]] [[Phase I consisted of operations procedures associated with the top three risk significant systems for Units 2 and 3. Phase]]
II of the procedure upgrade project included the remaining top 10 plant risk significant systems, integrated plant operating procedures, procedures which involved single point vulnerabilities and initiating events. Current Entergy plans
and progress indicate that the Phase
: [[II]] [[portion of the procedure upgrade project will be completed by June 2009, several months ahead of the corrective action plan schedule. The inspectors reviewed a sample of the revised Phase I and Phase]]
II procedures and determined that significant revisions were made and the results met the quality and procedure standards described in Entergy's action plan. 


Enclosure The inspectors also observed that the Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance procedure upgrade project and the I&C Maintenance procedure development project made progress that was consistent with internal action plan schedules and milestones. The inspectors determined that the projects continue to receive the appropriate level of resources and management review and support to ensure completion of these projects.
==Section 4OA1: Performance Indicator Verification==
The inspectors determined that human error awareness and prevention actions were being implemented by Entergy to address the human performance aspects that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue in procedure adequacy. The inspectors determined that implementation of training, specifically the human performance training simulator, was appropriate to reinforce human error prevention
techniques being applied in the plant. The inspectors concluded Entergy developed appropriate monitoring measures and performance indicators to assess corrective action effectiveness. The inspectors observed that Entergy utilized these tools to provide initial feedback on corrective action implementation. For example, the inspectors determined that the performance indicators, related to procedure completion status and procedure feedback process
backlog, were an effective tool for monitoring station progress in these areas. Additionally, the inspectors concluded that self-assessments were an effective tool for corrective action adjustments and for evaluation of internal and external stakeholder recommendations. Entergy has adjusted the corrective action plan and procedure upgrade project scope to adequately incorporate stakeholder recommendations.  .3 Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone    a. Inspection Scope  The inspector reviewed condition reports initiated between November 2007 and December 2008, relative to the radiation protection program. The inspectors verified that problems identified by these condition reports were properly characterized by Entergy, and that applicable causes and corrective actions were identified commensurate with the safety significance of the occurrences. b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. 
.4 Operator Workarounds Review (71152 - 1 sample)    a. Inspection Scope  The inspectors conducted a review of the aggregate impact of operator workarounds on the ability of operators to implement abnormal and emergency operating procedures (AOPs/EOPs), and to ensure that mitigating systems that are impacted remain capable
of performing the associated safety functions. This review included operator burdens, as well as control room alarms and deficiencies. The inspectors reviewed the prioritization, assessment, and ownership of the aggregate impact that is accomplished through the site's Unit Reliability Team, and the implementation and assessment of the Operations Aggregate Indicator, which is described in
: [[EN]] [[-]]
OP-115, "Conduct of Operations," Rev. 6.
The inspectors conducted control board walk downs, and discussed various deficiencies with operators to determine the overall impact the deficiencies would have on operator
Enclosure response to plant events, which included compensatory actions that resulted from the applicable deficiency. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed site performance indicators and associated inputs to determined if deficiencies were appropriately classified in accordance with site guidelines. b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors reviewed various deficiencies that input into Entergy's Operations Aggregate Index, and verified that these deficiencies were appropriately classified as
operator work-arounds, control room deficiencies and alarms. In addition, the inspectors verified that that the aggregate impact of the deficiencies did not significantly impact the ability of operators to respond appropriately during plant events while implementing applicable
: [[EOP]] [[s and]]
AOPs. The inspectors also verified that the Unit Reliability Team was appropriately addressing the prioritization of deficiencies to ensure timely corrective actions were being implemented commensurate with applicable safety significance. 
.5 Semi-Annual Trend Review (71152 - 1 sample)    a. Inspection Scope  The inspectors performed a semi-annual review to identify trends that might indicate the
existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors included in this review, repetitive or closely-related issues that may have been documented by Entergy outside of the corrective action program, such as trend reports, performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance or corrective action program backlogs. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's corrective action
program database for the third and fourth quarters of 2008 to assess condition reports (CRs) written in various subject areas. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's quarterly trend reports from the corrective action, engineering, and maintenance departments for the second and third quarters of 2008 to ensure Entergy was appropriately evaluating and trending adverse conditions.
The inspectors focused on an emerging trend identified by Entergy from recent events in that human performance was determined to be either a direct or contributing cause. This trend was selected, in part, to evaluate Entergy's actions in response to the increased number of NRC inspection findings with associated human performance

Enclosure  b. Assessment and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. Several events that occurred at Indian Point in 2008, which resulted in both personal injury and equipment failures, were identified by Entergy to be attributable to human
performance errors. Entergy recognized the adverse trend in human performance, and developed a Human Performance Program to address the causes of the events, and to assist in the prevention or mitigation of future occurrences. The inspectors observed that the Human Performance Program includes actions to address the causes of human performance errors, reduce human performance errors, and monitor performance to
verify their actions are effective. Entergy reviewed the identified human performance errors to determine if a common cause existed, which was documented in
: [[CR]] [[-]]
IP2-2008-03671. Entergy determined that the human performance errors shared various contributing causes including application of human performance tools, identification of error-likely situations, work planning and execution, and application of resources. Entergy developed communication tools, training plans, and adjusted the site business plan to address the causal factors associated with human performance errors. Entergy implemented new communication tools including Safety and Human Performance Stand Downs and periodic human performance bulletins. The Safety and Human Performance
Stand Downs were used to develop a forum to reinforce site human performance expectations and discuss current human performance error events. Entergy also scheduled future stand downs to coincide with major evolutions on site in 2009, such as the Unit 3 refueling outage. Entergy developed a Human Performance Simulator and Work Management Academy to provide training on human performance traps, human performance tools, and to improve work planning and execution. The Human Performance Simulator focuses on reinforcing the proper threshold for error trap identification and the effective use of human performance tools to accomplish tasks. Operations and maintenance
departments completed this training, and it is included as annual refresher training for their department personnel. The Work Management Academy was required for all supervisory personnel and reinforced Entergy's work management model and procedures. Entergy also developed its Thought Improvement Process (TIP) Initiative to encourage employees to provide constructive feedback to improve the site's human
performance. The inspectors noted that Entergy has established measures to monitor human performance at Indian Point. In particular, human performance indicators and self-assessment results are used to monitor the effectiveness of the current programs and for evaluation of future trends in human performance. The next focused human performance self-assessment report is due July 10, 2009. The inspectors concluded that Entergy took timely and appropriately comprehensive action to address the site's emerging adverse human performance trend. The inspectors determined the programs established within Entergy's Human Performance program were reasonable to address the recent human performance errors and
emerging adverse trend in human performance.

: [[LER]] [[05000286/2008-001-00, Technical Specification Prohibited Condition Due to Exceeding the Allowed Completion Time for an Inoperable Safety Injection Pump Caused by a Failed Motor Supply Breaker. On January 27, 2008, during an attempt to start the 31 Safety Injection Pump (SIP), the]]
: [[31 SIP]] [[failed to start. Entergy staff investigated the failure to start and determined that the power supply breaker for the pump motor failed to close. Technical Specification (]]
TS) 3.5.2, Emergency Core Cooling Systems (ECCS), Condition A was entered for one or more trains inoperable. Entergy's review of past operation of the 31 SIP determined
that the pump was last operable on January 11, 2008.
: [[TS]] [[3.5.2 requires three trains of]]
: [[ECCS]] [[to be operable. The required action]]
: [[A.]] [[1 for]]
TS 3.5.2, Condition A, is to restore the train(s) to operable within a completion time of 72 hours. The inoperable condition based on past operation exceeded the 72 hour allowed completion time for TS 3.5.2 with the required action not completed. Entergy determined the cause of the breaker problem was due to the breaker closing springs not charging. The closing springs did not charge properly due to a dislodged charging motor brush assembly because a
retaining screw became loose. Entergy's corrective actions included replacement of the breaker spring charging motor and subsequent breaker testing, and the breaker was returned to service on January 27, 2008. Entergy also revised the breaker maintenance procedure to require inspection of the breaker motor retaining screw.
The inspectors reviewed the
: [[LER]] [[and Entergy's evaluation of the event and associated corrective actions contained in]]
CR-IP-2008-00252. The inspectors determined that the problem with the 31 SIP breaker, specific to the closing springs, was not within Entergy's ability to foresee and correct based on review of the breaker's maintenance and operational history, equipment configuration, and available operating experience information. Specifically, the inspectors determined that Entergy's maintenance performed on this breaker was appropriate and up to date consistent with station and vendor instructions. The inspectors determined that, based on review on the operational history of the breaker, there was not information that indicated a potential reliability challenge related to the closing spring. The inspectors also determined that operating
experience information available to Entergy did not identify the potential for the closing spring problem that was evidenced for this type of breaker. Further, the inspectors concluded that, due to the installed location of the charging motor brush assembly, Entergy's routine processes and procedures would not have identified or reasonably detected the failure. Therefore, the inspectors determined this equipment failure could
not have been avoided or detected by Entergy's quality assurance program or other related control measures and did not constitute a performance deficiency. Additionally, based on the assumption that the
: [[31 SIP]] [[was inoperable for 16 days, the inspectors performed a Phase 2]]
SDP analysis that resulted in the risk significance of this issue as being of very low safety significance (Green). The inspectors determined that the 31 SIP being inoperable for greater than 72 hours
was a violation of Entergy's Technical Specification 3.5.2, Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS), Condition A, which requires an inoperable train of safety injection to be restored to operable status within 72 hours. However, because there was no performance deficiency identified and the risk significance is of very low safety significance, the NRC has chosen to exercise enforcement discretion and refrain from
issuing enforcement action for this violation of
: [[NRC]] [[requirements in accordance with Section]]
VII.B.6 of the NRC's Enforcement Policy. Further, because Entergy's actions

LER 05000286/2008-005-00, Technical Specification Prohibited Condition Due to Exceeding the Allowed Completion Time for an Inoperable Isolation Valve Seal Water System Due to an Out of Position Valve Caused by Personnel Error  On September 1, 2008, during implementation of various valve lineups at Unit 3, Entergy personnel identified an isolation valve seal water (IVSW) system valve, IV-1692, out of its required open position, e.g., it was found in the closed position. Entergy determined that the valve was out of its normally-open position since May 2007, for approximately
months, due to personnel error in the removal of a temporary modification and failure to ensure full restoration of valve
: [[IV]] [[-1692. As a result, one header of the]]
IVSW system was inoperable greater than the seven days allowed by technical specification (TS) 3.6.9.
Entergy restored IV-1692 to its normally-open position, performed an apparent cause evaluation, briefed maintenance personnel, which included supervisors, regarding human performance tools to minimize personnel error, and instituted a dynamic human performance simulator to reinforce aspects of performance such as, proper use of error reduction tools and procedure compliance. The inspectors determined this issue was more than minor because it impacted the Barrier Integrity cornerstone, and impacted its ability to limit fission product releases from containment during a design basis loss of
coolant accident. The issue was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with the
: [[SDP]] [[Phase 1 worksheet because it did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of the reactor containment. In addition, although Entergy credits the operable]]
IVSW system to calculate and ensure compliance with NRC containment leakage requirements, the system is not credited in the
calculation of offsite doses following the design basis loss of coolant accident. The

a. Inspection Scope  The inspectors evaluated the response of control room personnel following the unexpected loss of 480 Volt safeguards bus 6A that occurred during the performance of a degraded grid/undervoltage relay surveillance test on October 9, 2008. The inspectors
reviewed plant computer data, evaluated plant parameter traces, and discussed the event with plant personnel, to verify that plant equipment responded as expected, and to ensure that operating procedures were appropriately implemented. The inspectors verified that Entergy's short term corrective actions were appropriate in response to the event. This event was entered into Entergy's corrective action program as
: [[CR]] [[]]
IP3-2008-02519. Corrective actions included the initiation of a root cause evaluation, and the determination that the test meter utilized during the surveillance would need to be
evaluated for potential deficiencies that may have contributed to the event. b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified.
: [[4OA]] [[5 Other Activities  .1]]
TI 2515/173, Review of the Implementation of the Industry Ground Water Protection Voluntary Initiative    a. Inspection Scope  During the week of August 11, 2008, the NRC assessed Entergy's implementation of the Nuclear Energy Institute - Voluntary Ground Water Protection Initiative (dated August
2007, ML072610036). Entergy evaluated work practices that could lead to leaks and spills, and performed an evaluation of systems, structures, and components that contain licensed radioactive material to determine potential leak or spill mechanisms. Entergy completed a site characterization of geology and hydrology to determine the
predominant ground water gradients and potential pathways for ground water migration from on-site locations to off-site locations. An on-site ground water monitoring program has been implemented to monitor for potential licensed radioactive leakage into groundwater. The ground water monitoring results are reported in the annual effluent and/or environmental monitoring report. (See link below)  (http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/ops-experience/tritium/plant-info.html)  Entergy prepared procedures for the decision making process for potential remediation of leaks and spills, including consideration of the long term decommissioning impacts. Records of leaks and spills are recorded in Entergy's decommissioning files in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(g).


Enclosure Entergy identified the appropriate local and state officials and has conducted briefings on the licensee's ground water protection initiative. Entergy established protocols for notification to local and state officials regarding detection of leaks and spills. b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified.  .2 Ground-Water Contamination Review    a. Inspection Scope  The inspectors reviewed plans, procedures, and remediation activities affecting the contaminated ground water condition at Indian Point, relative to

sludge removal of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools; the radioactive waste processing of the fuel pool water and residual sludge materials; and review of the radioactive liquid effluent release accounting and dose calculations resulting from these activities. The inspection included onsite inspections on September 18, 2008; October 10, 2008; October 14-15, 2008; and November 17-18, 2008.
: NEI 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Rev.
b. Findings and Observations  No findings of significance were identified. Following the removal of Unit 1 spent fuel to dry cask storage, Entergy established special radioactive liquid processing and sampling equipment for conducting the drain down of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools. Between September 15, 2008 and November 7, 2008, approximately 500,000 gallons of water were drained and processed which included pool surface rinse water used during sludge removal activities. The liquid
: Attachment
processing equipment was designed to clarify the pool water prior to discharge into the Hudson River. The liquid processing system consisted of a series of sequential processing modules which included a filter cartridge, a 25 ft³ mixed (cation and anion) demineralizer resin vessel followed by five 12.5 ft³ supplemental water polishing units consisting of an activated charcoal vessel, a cation demineralizer resin vessel, a mixed
demineralizer resin vessel, a cesium-specific filter media vessel, and finally another activated charcoal vessel. The filtered and demineralized water was sampled by an automatic composite sampler for monitoring and analysis prior to the effluent stream release into the discharge canal. Residual sludge from the bottom of the spent fuel pools was mixed with water and sluiced into a 120 ft3 polyethylene disposal container. Liquids were removed from this solid waste container by periodically pumping down the container through the self-contained PVC dewatering system contained in the disposal
container. These liquid wastes were subsequently processed through the same liquid processing system as described above, however, due to the potentially higher radioactive contaminants, the final processed water was redirected to a Unit 1 waste collection tank to allow for additional waste water treatment prior to discharge. The 120 ft3 disposal container of solid waste was classified as Class B waste and will be stored onsite until an offsite disposal facility becomes available.
Enclosure The inspectors determined the treated and discharged water was sampled and properly accounted by Entergy to result in less than 1 Curie of radioactivity discharged consisting mostly of tritium, and small amounts of Kr-85 and Cs-137. The resulting public dose associated from this liquid discharge activity was 0.00007 mRem to the whole body and 0.00012 mRem to the highest organ (teen/liver). The inspectors verified these values represent small fractions of the liquid discharge limits of 3 mRem/yr whole body and 10
mRem/yr maximum organ dose limits specified in 10 CFR 50, Appendix I.  .3 Quarterly Resident Inspector Observations of Security Personnel and Activities    a. Inspection Scope  During the inspection period, the inspectors conducted observations of security force personnel and activities to ensure that these activities were consistent with Entergy security procedures and applicable regulatory requirements. Although these observations did not constitute additional inspection samples, they were considered an integral part of the normal, resident inspector plant status reviews during implementation of the baseline inspection program. b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified. 
.4 Implementation of Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/176 - Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing    a. Inspection Scope  The objective of
: [[TI]] [[2515/176, "Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing," was to gather information and assess the adequacy of nuclear power plant emergency diesel generator (]]
EDG) endurance and margin testing as prescribed in plant-specific technical
specifications (TS). The inspectors reviewed the Unit 3 emergency diesel generator ratings, design basis event load calculations, surveillance testing requirements, emergency diesel generator vendor's specifications, and other information in accordance with TI 2515/176.
The inspectors' assessment, and other pertinent information gathered during the implementation of this TI was discussed with Entergy personnel. In addition, this information was forwarded to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation for further review and evaluation.      b. Findings  No findings of significance were identified.

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems

.1 Routine Problem Identification & Resolution Program Review

a. Inspection Scope

As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems," and to identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of all items entered into Entergy's corrective action program. The review was accomplished by accessing Entergy's computerized database for condition reports, and attending condition report screening meetings.

In accordance with the baseline inspection modules, the inspectors selected corrective action program items across the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones for further follow-up and review. The inspectors assessed Entergy's threshold for problem identification, adequacy of the causal analysis, extent of condition reviews, and operability determinations, and timeliness of the associated corrective actions.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

.2 Semi-Annual Trend Review

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a semi-annual review to identify trends that might indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors included in this review, repetitive or closely-related issues that may have been documented by Entergy outside of the corrective action program, such as trend reports, performance indicators, major equipment problem lists, maintenance rule assessments, and maintenance or corrective action program backlogs. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's corrective action program database for the third and fourth quarters of 2008 to assess the total number and significance of condition reports (CRs) written in various subject areas. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's corrective action, engineering, and maintenance quarterly trend reports for the second and third quarters of 2008 to ensure Entergy was appropriately evaluating and trending adverse conditions.

The inspectors focused on an adverse trend in through-wall leaks identified in service water piping. The inspectors reviewed CRs, causal evaluations, maintenance plans, business plans, and interviewed station personnel to assess whether Entergy identified the adverse trend and developed appropriate corrective actions to address the conditions.

b. Assessment and Observations No findings of significance were identified.

13 Enclosure Entergy identified three leaks in service water system blowdown piping on August 19, 2008 and determined the leaks were pinhole size that resulted in wetting of the pipe surface. Entergy entered the issue into the CAP and performed an immediate operability assessment that concluded the piping was operable and did not impact the pipe's structural integrity. Entergy performed extent-of-condition walkdowns in the service water intake area and discovered additional leaks on service water system blowdown piping welds. Entergy personnel performed volumetric non-destructive testing of the pipes in accordance with their procedures and determined that these additional leaks were minor localized defects that did not impact structural integrity and, therefore, the service water systems they supported remained operable. Entergy performed the actions described in ASME Code Case N-513-2 for the ASME Class III service water piping and established monitoring frequencies and flaw acceptance criteria. Entergy's short term corrective actions included: performing engineering walkdowns of all stainless steel piping in the service water system, establishing daily walkdowns of identified flaws, and performing volumetric inspection on the identified flaws as required by ASME Code. Entergy identified long term actions that include replacement of the stainless steel service water blowdown piping with a more corrosion-resistant material as Entergy personnel determined that the 304 stainless steel blowdown piping is susceptible to pitting corrosion due to the brackish water of the Hudson River. The replacement is planned to be completed prior to the next refueling outage in the spring of 2010.

Additionally, as part of Entergy's extent-of-condition walkdowns, Entergy identified several leaks on stainless steel service water piping servicing radiation monitors for the containment fan coil units. Similar to the service water blowdown piping, Entergy determined the pinhole leaks were on weld material. However, because the leaks appeared on socket welds and the flaws could not be accurately characterized, ASME Code Case N-513-2 was not applicable and Entergy declared the radiation monitors inoperable and repaired the flaws. Entergy determined that the leaks were caused by pitting corrosion in the 300 series stainless steel pipe welds and the brackish water of the Hudson River. Entergy implemented corrective actions that included immediate repair of all leaking welds and development of an Engineering Change Request package that will replace the radiation monitor piping with a highly corrosion resistant material (AL6XN).

On September 16, 2008, the inspectors identified a small through-wall leak on service water piping supplying cooling water to the containment fan-coil units (FCUs). Specifically, the inspectors identified a pinhole leak that resulted in a wetted pipe surface on a weld neck flange for a 2-inch carbon-steel drain line connected to a 10-inch supply header to the 22 FCU. Entergy performed an operability assessment for the containment penetration and supported the evaluation with confirmatory ultrasonic tests and structural calculations. Entergy determined the cause of this failure was the result of improperly coated weld surfaces internal to the pipe that occurred in 2002. Entergy determined the maintenance procedures, at that time, used to prepare the piping prior to welding did not contain adequate instructions for properly preparing a pipe or weld surface prior to the application of the corrosion resistant coating. Entergy developed procedure 0-SYS-409-GEN, "Belzona and Enecon Metal Repair Applications," in 2005 to improve surface preparation and application techniques. Entergy implemented short term actions to monitor the leakage daily, perform 90-day follow-up ultrasonic testing on the leak location, and perform extent-of-condition walkdowns and UT measurements on the corresponding welds of the 21, 23, 24, and 25 FCUs. Entergy's long term corrective actions includes procedure revisions, repair of the weld during the next refueling outage, 14 Enclosure and plans to visually inspect the welds on the other FCUs during the next refueling outage.

The inspectors determined that there was reasonable opportunity for Entergy to identify and correct the 22 FCU leak prior to NRC identification as required per 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, criterion XVI, "Corrective Action;" however, the inspectors determined, based on subsequent testing of the 22 FCU performed by Entergy, that the operability of the 22 FCU and the corresponding containment penetration was not impacted. Therefore, this violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B is considered to be of minor significance and not subject to NRC enforcement.

In general and notwithstanding the NRC inspector-identified minor leak, the inspectors determined that Entergy appropriately identified the adverse trend in service water piping corrosion issues in the corrective action program and documented operability assessments for the service water leaks that were supported by a sufficient technical basis. The inspectors determined that Entergy performed appropriate causal evaluations and implemented extent-of-condition reviews to understand the corrosion mechanisms that existed in service water piping and the extent of the issues. The inspectors also determined that Entergy identified and implemented or planned corrective actions commensurate with the requirements of their corrective action program and the ASME Code. Additionally, the inspectors observed that corrective actions included consideration for the safety significance of the issues.

.3 Aggregate Impact of Operator Workarounds

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted a review of the aggregate impact of operator burdens and workarounds. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's implementation of procedures OAP-45, "Operator Burden Program," Revision 1. The inspectors conducted control room walkdowns and interviewed plant operators to determine the impact of deficiencies on operator response to plant events.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors verified that operator workarounds and burdens were entered into the corrective action program at an appropriate threshold and that corrective actions were planned or taken commensurate with their safety significance.

.4 Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue Review: Human Performance - Procedure

Adequacy (71152 - 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed Entergy's actions to address the Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue (SCCI) in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy. The inspectors' review focused on Entergy's progress in addressing the SCCI since their implementation of a revised action plan in May 2008. The inspectors evaluated Entergy's performance improvement plans and actions using inspection guidance in Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems." Specifically, the inspectors 15 Enclosure assessed Entergy's progress in resolving the cross-cutting issue by evaluating whether Entergy's internal milestones were being monitored and consistently met and whether adjustments in approach were made when necessary. This inspection focused on the progress made since the PI&R sample inspection conducted in October 2008 (NRC Inspection Report 05000247/2008013 and 05000286/2008011).

The inspectors conducted a review of the applicable condition reports (CRs), corrective action assignments (CAs), focused self-assessments, Quality Assurance group assessments, and causal evaluations for the substantive cross-cutting issue. The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's performance indicators related to their performance improvement plan; reviewed a sample of revised procedures; conducted a series of interviews with station management, procedure writers and reviewers, maintenance technicians, and operators in order to assess the adequacy of the performance plan and effectiveness of corrective actions.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

The inspectors determined that Entergy continued to make progress in effectively implementing their corrective action plans that address the substantive cross-cutting issue in Human Performance related to procedure adequacy.

The inspectors concluded that Entergy's corrective action plans were reasonable in scope because they addressed procedures that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue. Entergy's corrective action plans included Operations, Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance, and I&C Maintenance procedures. The procedure upgrade project portion of Entergy's corrective action plans focused on risk significant components and actions in operating procedures. The inspectors determined the procedure upgrade project scope appropriately included operating procedures related to initiating events, single point vulnerabilities, and integrated plant operating procedures. The inspectors observed that station training was developed and provided for the individuals involved in the procedure upgrade project and their management. The inspectors also observed that procedure reviews were being conducted for Security, Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and Engineering procedures to improve the quality of procedures in those areas.

The inspectors confirmed previous NRC observations, through interviews with Entergy staff, that the station has shifted the ownership of this project from the support organizations to the line organization. Entergy personnel indicated this organizational alignment has been a significant factor in the increased acceptance and participation from plant workers, and produced a noticeable improvement in revised procedure quality. The inspectors observed that several personnel interviewed commented that the human performance training simulator is an effective tool, and assisted procedure writers with the identification of human performance error traps in existing procedures.

The inspectors concluded that the realignment of the procedure upgrade project resulted in enhanced project accountability and quality output.

With respect to the progress of the procedure upgrade project, Entergy completed Phase I of the project ahead of their internal schedule and started Phase II. Phase I consisted of operations procedures associated with the top three risk significant systems 16 Enclosure for Units 2 and 3. Phase II of the procedure upgrade project included the remaining top 10 plant risk significant systems, integrated plant operating procedures, procedures which involved single point vulnerabilities and initiating events. Current Entergy plans and progress indicate that the Phase II portion of the procedure upgrade project will be completed by June 2009, several months ahead of the corrective action plan schedule. The inspectors reviewed a sample of the revised Phase I and Phase II procedures and determined that significant revisions were made and the results met the quality and procedure standards described in Entergy's action plan.

The inspectors also observed that the Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance procedure upgrade project and the I&C Maintenance procedure development project made progress that was consistent with internal action plan schedules and milestones. The inspectors determined that the projects continue to receive the appropriate level of resources and management review and support to ensure completion of these projects.

The inspectors determined that human error awareness and prevention actions were being implemented by Entergy to address the human performance aspects that contributed to the substantive cross-cutting issue in procedure adequacy. The inspectors determined that implementation of training, specifically the human performance training simulator, was appropriate to reinforce human error prevention techniques being applied in the plant.

The inspectors concluded Entergy developed appropriate monitoring measures and performance indicators to assess corrective action effectiveness. The inspectors observed that Entergy utilized these tools to provide initial feedback on corrective action implementation. For example, the inspectors determined that the performance indicators, related to procedure completion status and procedure feedback process backlog, were an effective tool for monitoring station progress in these areas.

Additionally, the inspectors concluded that self-assessments were an effective tool for corrective action adjustments and for evaluation of internal and external stakeholder recommendations. Entergy has adjusted the corrective action plan and procedure upgrade project scope to adequately incorporate stakeholder recommendations.

5. Substantive Cross-Cutting Issue Review: Problem Identification and Resolution -

Implementation of Corrective Actions (71152 - 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed Entergy's action plan to address the Substantive Cross Cutting Issue (SCCI) identified for Unit 2 in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution related to implementation of effective corrective actions. This SCCI was identified in the NRC's 2008 Annual Assessment letter [ADAMS Ref. No. ML080610015] and was continued in the NRC 2008 Mid Cycle Performance Review [ADAMS Ref. No. ML082470316].

The inspectors conducted a review of the applicable condition reports (CRs), corrective action assignments (CAs), focused self-assessments, Quality Assurance group assessments, root cause analyses, common cause analyses, and apparent cause determinations for the substantive cross-cutting issue. The inspectors also reviewed the CRs and corrective actions associated with the four NCVs which contributed to this cross-cutting issue and reviewed a sample of corrective actions for NRC findings in 2007 17 Enclosure and 2008 to determine if a trend existed. The inspectors reviewed Entergy's performance in order to assess the adequacy of the performance plan and effectiveness of corrective actions.

b. Findings and Observations

There were no findings of significance.

The inspectors determined that Entergy continued to make progress in effectively implementing their corrective action plans, specific to the substantive cross-cutting issue in Problem Identification and Resolution related to implementation of corrective actions at Unit 2.

The inspectors observed progress made in developing and implementing a site-wide action plan to address the issue. The inspectors concluded that the performance improvement plan developed by Entergy was appropriately focused and sufficiently broad to address the cross-cutting aspect of implementation of corrective actions. Additionally, Entergy is approaching their corrective actions from a site-wide perspective (Units 2 and 3) and implemented changes in the processes and level of management review to ensure the issue was appropriately addressed for both units. Specific corrective actions identified by Entergy included the following: administrative procedure revisions to change corrective action tracking; revised procedure requirements for corrective action review board (CARB) review of level 2 and higher tier causal evaluations; revised corrective action requirements for post-closure CARB review of cause evaluations completed over the past year to include verification that that effectiveness reviews were scheduled, completed, and reviewed by CARB for all significant conditions adverse to quality and violations of regulatory requirements. The inspectors observed that these changes were implemented and further observed management review and challenge of several causal evaluations and effectiveness reviews.

Entergy developed performance indicators to track and trend the implementation of the corrective actions. The inspectors reviewed the data from the performance indicators and concluded that the performance indicators were effective and an indication that corrective actions were identifying areas for improvement. The inspectors also determined that Entergy conducted focused self assessments and benchmarking surveys as additional measures to verify planned actions were sufficiently effective.

4OA3 Event Followup

.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000247/2008-002-00, Technical Specification Prohibited Condition Due to Exceeding the Allowed Completion Time for an Inoperable Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relay Caused by Improper Relay Wiring

a. Inspection Scope

On March 28, 2008, Entergy identified an improperly wired safety injection (SI) logic relay during troubleshooting of a high resistance contact in the relay. Specifically, Entergy determined that 23 Containment Fan Cooler Unit (FCU) breaker was not wired to receive a closing signal from the SI relay associated with the electric bus that supplies 18 Enclosure its power. The 23 FCU is powered from bus 2A, and is designed to receive a sequenced start relay during an SI from the 2A bus SI relay. However, in this case, Entergy identified that 23 FCU would have received its start signal from the 5A bus SI relay. Therefore, if bus 5A was de-energized during an SI, 23 FCU would not receive an automatic sequenced start signal as designed. In this scenario, 23 FCU would still be available for manual start by the operators. Entergy determined the incorrect wiring configuration was a result of an improperly implemented design change by the original plant installer in 1973. The incorrect wiring was never detected during subsequent testing because all four safety bus SI relays are tested simultaneously during biannual SI blackout testing.

Entergy entered this issue into their corrective action program, corrected the relay wiring configuration, and performed an extent-of-condition review of other SI relays. No additional instances of incorrect wiring were identified. The inspectors reviewed the LER and verified the corrective actions were adequate. The enforcement aspects of this finding are discussed in section 4OA7. This LER is closed.

4OA5 Other Activities

.1 Implementation of Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/176 - Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing

a. Inspection Scope

The objective of TI 2515/176, "Emergency Diesel Generator Technical Specification Surveillance Requirements Regarding Endurance and Margin Testing," is to gather information to assess the adequacy of nuclear power plant emergency diesel generator endurance and margin testing as prescribed in plant-specific technical specifications (TS). The inspectors reviewed emergency diesel generator ratings, design basis event load calculations, surveillance testing requirements, and emergency diesel generator vendor's specifications and gathered information in accordance with TI 2515/176.

The inspector assessment and information gathered while completing this TI was discussed with licensee personnel. This information was forwarded on to the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation for further review and evaluation.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

.2 TI 2515/173, Review of the Implementation of the Industry Ground Water Protection Voluntary Initiative

a. Inspection Scope

An NRC assessment was performed the week of August 11, 2008 of Entergy's implementation of the Nuclear Energy Institute - Voluntary Ground Water Protection Initiative (dated August 2007, ADAMS Ref. No. ML072610036). Entergy evaluated work practices that could lead to leaks and spills, and performed an evaluation of systems, 19 Enclosure structures, and components that contain licensed radioactive material to determine potential leak or spill mechanisms.

Entergy completed a site characterization of geology and hydrology to determine the predominant ground water gradients and potential pathways for ground water migration from on-site locations to off-site locations. An on-site ground water monitoring program was implemented to monitor for potential licensed radioactive leakage into groundwater. The ground water monitoring results are being reported in the annual effluent and/or environmental monitoring report.

(http://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/ops-experience/tritium/plant-info.html) Entergy prepared procedures for the decision making process for potential remediation of leaks and spills, including consideration of the long term decommissioning impacts. Records of leaks and spills are being recorded in Entergy's decommissioning files in accordance with 10 CFR 50.75(g).

Entergy identified appropriate local and state officials and conducted briefings on Entergy's ground water protection initiative. Protocols have been established for notification to these local and state officials regarding detection of leaks and spills.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

.3 Ground-Water Contamination Review

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed plans, procedures, and remediation activities affecting the contaminated ground water condition at Indian Point, relative to NRC regulatory requirements, as authorized by the NRC Executive Director of Operations in a Reactor Oversight Process deviation memorandum dated December 19, 2007 (ADAMS Accession number ML073480290). The inspectors also reviewed Entergy's performance relative to remediation of the principal source of groundwater contamination including observation of the draining and sludge removal of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools, the radioactive waste processing of the fuel pool water and residual sludge materials, and reviewed the radioactive liquid effluent release accounting and dose calculations resulting from these activities. The inspection included onsite inspections on September 18, 2008; October 10, 2008; October 14-15, 2008; and November 17-18, 2008.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings of significance were identified.

Following the removal of Unit 1 spent fuel to dry cask storage, Entergy established special radioactive liquid processing and sampling equipment for conducting the drain down of the Unit 1 spent fuel pools. Between September 15, 2008 and November 7, 2008, approximately 500,000 gallons of water were drained and processed which included pool surface rinse water used during sludge removal activities. The liquid processing equipment was designed to clarify the pool water prior to discharge into the 20 Enclosure Hudson River. The liquid processing system consisted of a series of sequential processing modules which included a filter cartridge, a 25 ft³ mixed (cation and anion) demineralizer resin vessel followed by five 12.5 ft³ supplemental water polishing units consisting of an activated charcoal vessel, a cation demineralizer resin vessel, a mixed demineralizer resin vessel, a cesium-specific filter media vessel, and finally another activated charcoal vessel. The filtered and demineralized water was sampled by an automatic composite sampler for monitoring and analysis prior to the effluent stream release into the discharge canal. Residual sludge from the bottom of the spent fuel pools was mixed with water and sluiced into a 120 ft 3 polyethylene disposal container. Liquids were removed from this solid waste container by periodically pumping down the container through the self-contained dewatering system contained in the disposal container. These liquid wastes were subsequently processed through the same liquid processing system as described above, however, due to the potentially higher radioactive contaminants, the final processed water was redirected to a Unit 1 waste collection tank to allow for additional waste water treatment prior to discharge. The 120 ft 3 disposal container of solid waste was classified as Class B waste and will be stored onsite until an offsite disposal facility becomes available.

The inspectors determined that treated and discharged water was sampled and properly accounted by Entergy to result in less than 1 Curie of radioactivity discharged consisting mostly of tritium, and small amounts of Kr-85 and Cs-137. The resulting public dose associated from this liquid discharge activity was 0.00007 mrem to the whole body and 0.00012 mrem to the highest organ (teen/liver). The inspectors confirmed these values represented small fractions of the liquid discharge limits of 3 mrem/yr whole body and 10 mrem/yr maximum organ dose limits specified in 10 CFR 50, Appendix I.

4OA6 Meetings

Exit Meeting Summary

On January 9, 2008, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Joseph Pollock and other Entergy staff members, who acknowledged the inspection results presented. Entergy did not identify any material as proprietary.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations

The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by Entergy and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as a NCV.

Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.6 requires, in part, a minimum of three trains of containment fan cooler units (FCU) to be operable in mode 1. Contrary to this requirement, the required number of FCUs was not operable in mode 1, assuming a single failure of one emergency diesel generator (EDG) to supply power to the 5A bus during a design basis accident, coincident with a loss of offsite power. Specifically, on March 28, 2008, Entergy identified an incorrect wiring configuration that would have prevented the automatic start of the 23 FCU. This condition, coincident with a single failure of an EDG during a design basis accident, coincident with a loss of offsite power, would have prevented the automatic start of at least three FCUs.

This issue was corrected on March 28, 2008 and entered into Entergy's corrective action 21 Enclosure program as IP2-2008-01482. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the mitigating systems cornerstone and impacted the objective of ensuring the reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) based on IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings," because the finding did not represent an actual loss of safety function of the FCUs for greater than their allowed outage time.
