This was due to the potential loss of sample flow.that could be caused by calibration of the stack flow transmitter and iso-kinetic sampling skid.Since the plant was in Mode 5 at the time, the shift Foreman that reviewed the Equipment Inoperable Record (EIR}did not recognize that inoperability of the Stack 5A WRGM could require entry into Action Statements of two different Technical Specifications'.

3.3.3.11 in all modes, and 3.3.3.6 in Modes 1, 2, and 3.On November 5, 1987, at 2238, the plant entered Mode 3, and Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 became applicable, although this had still not been recognized at this time.Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action C, required a special report to be written to the NRC if the monitor was not returned to service within 7 days.The plant experienced unexpected problems during the calibration of the stack flow meter and iso-kinetic sampling skid, and the monitor was not declared operable until December 23, 1987.Since the LCO action requirements specified on EIRs are used to ensure that the required actions are implemented within the required.time limits, and since an LCO against Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 requirements was not identified, the need for the special report was not recognized until December 18, 1987.The special report, which was due on November 19, 1987, was not submitted until January 4, 1988.Consequently, a noncompliance with Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action C, resulted since this special report was not submitted within 14 days.The failure to declare the WRGM inoperable per Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, and the subsequent failure to submit'he special report was discovered during a review of outstanding EIRs.The monitor was declared inoperable per Technical, Specification 3.3.3.6 at 1500 on December 18, 1987.CAUSE.'he failure to declare the monitor inoperable per Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, and to submit the special report within the required time frame resulted from personnel errors.The first error occurred on November 2, 1987, when the Operations Shift Foreman failed to recognize the potential applicability of two different Technical Spec'fications., Since the plant was in Mode 5, Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 was not applicable at that time, and there was no requirement to prepare an EIR declaring the WRGM inoperable per that Technical NRC POIIM 344A (84)31*U.S.OPO:)988 0424 538/4&5 0 I NRC Sons 388A (983(LICENSEE EVENT REPORT (LER)TEXT CONTINUATION U.S.NUCLEAR REOULATORY COMMISSION APPROVEO OMS NO.3(50M(04 EXPIRES: 8/31/88 SACILITY NAME (ll OOCKET NUMBER (3(LER NVMSER (el PACE (3I.Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 TEXT////Isso O>>co/4/ooo/RRE I/44 oANorW//RC Sons 38843/I(T)CAUSE: (continued) o s o o o 40 0 87 SEOVENTIAL NVMOER 0 6 4 REVISION NVMOER 0003 oF 0 3 Specification.

However, a"tracking EIR" should have been prepared to alert personnel to the inoperability of this monitor prior to entering Mode 3.Plant procedure OMM-003, Equipment Inoperable Record, did not adequately cover tracking an EIR in a situation such as this.Additional personnel errors occurred as on coming Shift Foremen reviewed the status of EIRs in effect between November 2, 1987 and December 18, 1987, and failed to recognize the requirement for a"tracking EIR," prior to Mode 3, or an active EIR after the plant had entered Mode 3.On November 5, 1987, at 2238, the plant entered Mode 3.The Operations Shift Foreman is required to review all LCOs prior to changing modes to verify that all Technical Specification requirements are met.Another error o'ccurred here in that the Shift Foreman failed to recognize the applicability of Technical Specification 3.3.3.6.ANALYSIS OF EVENT: This event was reportable due to a noncompliance with Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action-C, which required a special report to be submitted to the NRC within 14 days.Failure to'submft the special're'port within.the TequiTed/time period had no safety consequences.

The compensatory actions required by Technical Specification 3.3.3.11, Table 3.3-13, Actions 46, 47, and 49 required an auxiliary sampler to be hooked up to continuously monitor the stack while the installed monitor was inoperable.

On November 2, 1987, at 1400, the Waste                                  Processing Building Vent Stack 5A Wide Range Gas Monitor (WRGM}, glWV-3547-1,                                   (EIIS:IL) was declared inoperable per Technical                Specification 3.3.3.11, Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation. This was due to the potential loss of sample flow. that could be caused by calibration of the stack flow transmitter and iso-kinetic sampling skid. Since the plant was in Mode 5 at the time, the shift Foreman that reviewed the Equipment Inoperable Record (EIR} did not recognize that inoperability of the Stack 5A WRGM could require entry into Action Statements of two different Technical Specifications'. 3.3.3.11 in all modes, and 3.3.3.6 in Modes 1, 2, and 3. On November 5, 1987, at 2238, the plant entered Mode 3, and Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 became applicable, although this had still not been recognized at this time.
Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action C, required a special report to be written to the NRC                          if    the monitor was not returned to service within 7 days.
The plant experienced unexpected problems during the calibration of the stack flow meter and iso-kinetic sampling skid, and the monitor was not declared operable until December 23, 1987. Since the LCO action requirements specified on EIRs are used to ensure that the required actions are implemented within the required .time limits, and since an LCO against Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 requirements was not identified, the need for the special report was not recognized until December 18, 1987. The special report, which was due on November 19, 1987, was not submitted until January 4, 1988.                                              Consequently, a noncompliance with Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action C, resulted since this special report was not submitted within 14 days.
The          failure to declare                        the  WRGM    inoperable      per Technical Specification 3.3.3.6,               and      the         subsequent      failure to         submit 'he      special report was discovered                during        a review of outstanding EIRs.                 The monitor was declared inoperable per Technical, Specification 3.3.3.6 at 1500 on December 18, 1987.
CAUSE.'he failure to declare the monitor inoperable per Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, and to submit the special report within the required time frame resulted from personnel errors.
The          first error              occurred on November 2, 1987, when the Operations Shift Foreman            failed to recognize the potential applicability of two different Technical Spec'fications.,                                  Since the plant was in Mode 5, Technical Specification 3.3.3.6                              was not applicable at that time, and there was no requirement to prepare an EIR declaring the WRGM inoperable per that Technical NRC POIIM 344A                                                                                                                      *U.S.OPO:)988 0424 538/4&5 (84)31

Specification. However, a "tracking EIR" should have been prepared to alert personnel to the inoperability of this monitor prior to entering Mode 3.
Plant procedure OMM-003, Equipment Inoperable Record, did not adequately cover tracking an EIR in a situation such as this.
Additional personnel errors occurred as on coming Shift Foremen reviewed the status of EIRs in effect between November 2, 1987 and December 18, 1987, and failed to recognize the requirement for a "tracking EIR," prior to Mode 3, or an active EIR after the plant had entered Mode 3.
On November              5, 1987, at 2238, the plant entered Mode 3. The Operations Shift Foreman          is required to review all LCOs prior to changing modes to verify that all Technical Specification requirements are met. Another error o'ccurred here in that the Shift Foreman failed to recognize the applicability of Technical Specification 3.3.3.6.
ANALYSIS OF EVENT:
This event was reportable due to a noncompliance with Technical Specification 3.3.3.6, Action- C, which required a special report to be submitted to the NRC within 14 days. Failure to 'submft the special 're'port within.the TequiTed/ time period had no safety consequences.                                The compensatory actions required by Technical Specification 3.3.3.11, Table 3.3-13, Actions 46, 47, and 49 required an auxiliary sampler to be hooked up to continuously monitor the stack while the installed monitor was inoperable. This sampler was installed at the purge air inlet connection for the iso-kinetic sampling skid, and was in place the entire time the monitor was inoperable.                                      All compensatory measures            for gaseous effluent and accident monitoring for Stack SA vere satisfied.
There have been no previous events                        similar to this.
CORRECTIVE ACTIONS:
: 1.       The     WRGM       was   restored to service       on December 23, 1987.
: 2.       The     event/'as             reviewed   by all   operating   shift personnel       during         shift turnover meetings.
: 3.       Plant procedure OMM-003, Equipment Inoperable Record, is being revised to provide better guidance for tracking EIRs and for maintaining cognizance of time requirements for LCOs.
