PLANT STATUS | |||
The unit remained at or near rated thermal power for the entirety of the inspection period. | |||
On March 28, 2018, FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) / FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating | |||
Company (FENOC) verbally notified the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that they intended to | |||
shut down all four of their operating nuclear power plants. Based on that notification, the first to | |||
shut down will be Davis-Besse, by May 31, 2020. On March 31, 2018, FES, FirstEnergy | |||
Nuclear Generation (FENGEN), and FENOC filed for bankruptcy. The Nuclear Regulatory | |||
Commission continues to maintain focus on public health and safety and the protection of the | |||
environment. This will include a continuous evaluation by inspectors to determine whether the | |||
licensees financial condition is impacting safe operation of the plant. | |||
INSPECTION SCOPES | |||

and a finding for this issue are documented in this report. This LER is closed. | |||
Evaluation of Davis-Besse Safety Condition in Light of Financial Conditions | |||
The licensees parent company, FirstEnergy Solutions, was under bankruptcy | |||
protection/reorganization during the inspection period. As such, NRC Region III conducted | |||
special reviews of processes at Davis-Besse. Using the flexibilities in the baseline inspection | |||
program, the inspectors evaluated several aspects of the licensees operations to assess | |||
whether any identified plant performance issues could be related to the stations financial | |||
condition. The factors reviewed included: (1) impact on regulatory-required plant staffing, | |||
(2) corrective maintenance backlog, (3) changes to the planned maintenance schedule, | |||
(4) corrective action program implementation, and (5) reduction in outage scope, including | |||
risk-significant modifications. In particular, the inspectors verified that licensee personnel | |||
continued to identify problems at an appropriate threshold and enter these problems into the | |||
corrective action program for resolution. The inspectors also verified that the licensee continued | |||
to develop and implement corrective actions commensurate with the safety significance of the | |||
problems identified. | |||
The review of processes at Davis-Besse included continuous reviews by the Resident | |||
Inspectors, as well as the specialist-led baseline inspections completed during the inspection | |||
period which are documented previously in this report. | |||

Observation - Selected Issue Follow-Up for 71152 - Annual Sample Review | |||
CR-2018-03036: Misposition of Make Up Filter 1 | |||
Outlet Isolation (MU 177) | |||
On March 31, 2018, while placing makeup system filter 1 in service using DB-OP-06006, | |||
Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, the licensee received two unexpected alarms: | |||
Letdown or MU [make-up] Filter dP [differential pressure] Hi followed by Letdown Pressure | |||
Hi. The licensee immediately opened MU12B, the Makeup Filter 2 Inlet Isolation, to establish | |||
letdown flow. During this time the letdown relief valve lifted and reseated, diverting | |||
approximately six gallons of water to the reactor coolant drain tank. | |||
Through the investigation of the issue, the licensee found MU177, the Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet | |||
Isolation valve, had not been opened on March 30, 2018, as required by Step 4.9.16.j of | |||
DB-OP-06006. The licensees corrective actions included operator remediation, a | |||
requirement to have shiftly engagement calls with Operations Management, and | |||
reinforcement of the value of reverse briefs by operators as a human performance tool. This | |||
issue was documented in CR-2018-03036, Disposition of Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet | |||
Isolation (MU177). | |||
As appropriate, the inspectors verified the following attributes during their review of the | |||
licensee's corrective actions for the above condition reports and other related condition | |||
reports: | |||
* complete and accurate identification of the problem in a timely manner commensurate | |||
with its safety significance and ease of discovery; | |||
* consideration of the extent of condition, generic implications, common cause, and | |||
previous occurrences; | |||
* evaluation and disposition of operability/functionality/reportability issues; | |||
* classification and prioritization of the resolution of the problem commensurate with | |||
safety significance; | |||
* identification of corrective actions, which were appropriately focused to correct the | |||
problem; and | |||
* completion of corrective actions in a timely manner commensurate with the safety | |||
significance of the issue. | |||
The inspectors verified the licensee assessed and corrected the issue in a timely manner. A | |||
violation associated with this issue is documented in this report. | |||

Closed Follow-Up of | |||
Selected | |||
Issues | |||
A self-revealed Green finding and associated Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of Technical | |||
Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, was identified when the licensee failed to follow station | |||
procedure DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System. Specifically, the licensee failed | |||
to open MU177, the Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation valve, which resulted in the isolation of | |||
letdown while swapping make-up filters. | |||
Description: | |||
On March 31, 2018, while placing make-up system filter 1 in service using DB-OP-06006, | |||
Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, the licensee received two unexpected | |||
alarms: Letdown or MU [make-up] Filter dP [differential pressure] Hi followed by Letdown | |||
Pressure Hi. The licensee immediately opened MU12B, the Makeup Filter 2 Inlet Isolation, | |||
to establish letdown flow. | |||
During investigation of the issue the licensee found MU177, the Make-up Filter 1 Outlet | |||
Isolation Valve, unexpectedly closed. This was because on March 30, 2018, when preparing | |||
to swap filters, the licensee failed to follow Step 4.9.16.j of DB-OP-06006, which required | |||
opening of MU177. Additionally, the licensee determined that while letdown flow was | |||
isolated, the letdown relief valve lifted and reseated. Approximately six gallons of water were | |||
diverted to the reactor coolant drain tank. | |||
Corrective Actions: The licensees corrective actions included operator remediation, a | |||
requirement to have shiftly engagement calls with operations management, and | |||
reinforcement of the value of reverse briefs by operators as a human performance tool. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: This issue was documented in CR-2018-03036, Misposition | |||
of Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation (MU177). | |||
Performance Assessment: | |||
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to follow | |||
DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, was a performance deficiency. | |||
Specifically, the licensee failed to open MU177, Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation, as required | |||
by Step 4.9.16.j. | |||
Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with | |||
Initiating Events cornerstone attribute of equipment performance, and adversely affected the | |||
cornerstone objective of limiting the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and | |||
challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, | |||
the licensees failure to open MU177 resulted in the letdown relief valve lifting, diverting | |||
reactor coolant to the reactor coolant drain tank. | |||
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Attachment 4, Initial | |||
Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination | |||
Process for Findings at Power, issued June 19, 2012, the finding was screened against the | |||
Initiating Events cornerstone. The inspectors determined this issue was of very low safety | |||
significance (Green) because the inspectors answered No to all the screening questions. | |||
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Avoid Complacency in the | |||
area of the Human Performance because the licensee failed to recognize and plan for the | |||
possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful | |||
outcomes. Individuals implement appropriate error reduction tools. Specifically, the licensee | |||
did not appropriately implement error reduction tools. [H.12] | |||
Enforcement: | |||
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, states, in part, written procedures | |||
shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the following activities: the | |||
applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, | |||
February 1978. Section 3.n of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, | |||
February 1978, states, in part, instructions for energizing, filling, venting, draining, startup, | |||
shutdown, and changing modes of operation should be prepared, as appropriate, for the | |||
following systems: chemical and volume control system (including letdown/purification | |||
system). Step 4.9.16.j of DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, | |||
stated, open MU177, Make-up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation. | |||
Contrary to the above, on March 30, 2018, the licensee failed to implement a written | |||
procedure required by Technical Specification 5.4.1.a. Specifically, the licensee failed to | |||
implement procedure DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, which | |||
resulted in the isolation of letdown while swapping make-up filters. | |||
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the | |||
licensees corrective action program as CR-2018-03036, this violation is being treated as an | |||
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-01: | |||

Direction | |||
The NRC identified a finding of Green significance and an associated NCV of Technical | |||
Specification 3.3.5, Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) Instrumentation for the | |||
licensees failure to place the reactor in Mode 3 within six hours of identifying that two | |||
channels of SFAS Borated Water Storage Tank level instrumentation were inoperable. | |||
Specifically, the licensee exited Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.5.b, the six hour shutdown | |||
technical specification, while two BWST level instruments were still inoperable. | |||
Description: | |||
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical | |||
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation. | |||
On June 30, 2016 at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level | |||
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable | |||
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. The Limiting Condition for | |||
Operation (LCO) for Technical Specification 3.3.5 stated in part, four channels of SFAS | |||
instrumentation for each Parameter [BWST level] shall be operable. At this time, Reactor | |||
Operators entered TS 3.3.5.a, which required the inoperable channel be tripped. Later that | |||
day at 2344, Channel 2 became inoperable due to a loss of power from a failed power supply. | |||
At this time, operators should have entered TS 3.3.5.b, which required restoring at least one | |||
channel immediately or placing the reactor into Mode 3 (hot shutdown), within six hours. At | |||
0140 on July 1, 2016, operators realized that they should apply TS 3.3.5.b, but did not enter | |||
the Technical Specification until 0245. At 0330, operators exited TS 3.3.5.b with Channel 1 | |||
declared operable with compensatory measures, including proceduralized operator actions to | |||
be performed for a manual suction swap. At that time, the Channel 1 instrument was | |||
electrically and physically disconnected and incapable of performing its function or passing | |||
the Technical Specification required surveillance, which is required to be met in all modes of | |||
applicability of the LCO. | |||
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability. From discussions with the | |||
licensee on July 1, 2016, the inspectors determined the defined compensatory measures | |||
were not sufficient for the licensee to declare Channel 1 operable. At 1325 on July 1, 2016, | |||
the licensee declared Channel 1 inoperable and reentered TS 3.3.5.b. At 1351, the licensee | |||
exited TS 3.3.5.b after maintenance was completed and Channel 1 was restored to service. | |||
The inspectors determined the reactor had been in a Mode other than Mode 3 (or lower) for a | |||
total of 14 hours and 7 minutes. | |||
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included reentering TS 3.3.5.b and performing | |||
corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable. The | |||
Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons learned. | |||
Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order; revised multiple procedures; | |||
and performed additional training regarding lessons learned from this event, Technical | |||
Specification compliance, and correct application of the operability determination process. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08419 | |||
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance. | |||
Performance Assessment: | |||
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to place the reactor | |||
in Mode 3 within six hours, as required by TS 3.3.5.b, was a performance deficiency. | |||
Specifically, with two channels of the BWST level instrumentation inoperable, the licensee | |||
failed to enter Mode 3 within six hours. | |||
Screening: The finding was determined to be more than minor because it was associated | |||
with the Mitigating Systems function of Long Term Heat Removal, and affected the | |||
cornerstones objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems to | |||
respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the finding | |||
resulted in the loss of the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) suction swap permissive | |||
function, which could have resulted in the loss of system safety function (i.e., ECCS due to a | |||
premature suction source transfer). | |||
Significance: The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in | |||
accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04, | |||
Phase 1-Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, for the Mitigating Systems | |||
cornerstone. The inspectors evaluated the finding using Appendix A, The Significance | |||
Determination Process for Findings At-Power. The inspectors answered Yes to Question | |||
A.2 in Exhibit 2 because the finding represented the inoperability of the ECCS suction swap | |||
permissive for fourteen hours, which was greater than the TS 3.3.5 allowed outage time of | |||
hours for this function. Therefore, a detailed risk evaluation was performed using | |||
IMC 0609, Appendix A. The risk evaluation was performed by Region III SRAs and the | |||
bounding core damage frequency (CDF) was determined to be 7.0E-7/yr. Since the total | |||
estimated change in core damage frequency was less than 1.0E-6/year, the finding/violation | |||
was initially determined to be Green. Additionally since the CDF was greater than | |||
1.0E-7/year, the finding was reviewed for potential Large Early Release Frequency (LERF) | |||
contribution. Davis Besse is a 2-loop Babcock and Wilcox Pressurized Water Reactor with a | |||
large dry containment. The core damage sequences important to LERF were steam | |||
generator tube rupture events and inter-system LOCA events. These events were not the | |||
dominant core damage sequences for this finding. Therefore, based on the detailed risk | |||
evaluation, the SRAs confirmed that the finding was of very-low safety significance (Green). | |||
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Conservative Bias in the | |||
area of Human Performance, which states individuals use decision making practices that | |||
emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is | |||
determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. Specifically, | |||
the licensee failed to use decision making practices that emphasized prudent choices, over | |||
those that they believed were simply allowable. [H.14] | |||
Enforcement: | |||
Violation: Technical Specification 3.3.5.b, SFAS Instrumentation, states in part, with one of | |||
more Parameters with two or more channels inoperable, be in Mode 3 within six hours. | |||
Enforcement Actions: Contrary to the above, on July 1, 2016, the licensee failed to place the | |||
reactor into Mode 3 within six hours of identifying one Parameter of SFAS instrumentation | |||
with two channels inoperable. Specifically, licensee operators entered TS 3.3.5.b. at 0245 | |||
hours on July 1, 2016, following the determination that Channels 1 and 2 of SFAS | |||
Instrumentation were inoperable. At 0330, licensee operators used inappropriate actions to | |||
declare Channel 1 of SFAS Instrumentation operable, and subsequently failed to place the | |||
reactor in Mode 3 before 0845 hours on July 1, 2016. Licensee operators appropriately | |||
exited TS 3.3.5.b. at 1351 hours on July 1, 2016. | |||
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the | |||
licensees corrective action program as CR-2016-08419, this violation is being treated as an | |||
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-02: | |||

Specifically, the licensee declared SFAS Channel 1 operable without performing the required | |||
channel check. | |||
Description: | |||
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical | |||
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation. | |||
On June 30, 2016, at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level | |||
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable | |||
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. On July 1, 2016, at 0330, the channel | |||
was declared operable with reference to compensatory measures. At that time, the | |||
Channel 1 instrument was electrically and physically disconnected, and incapable of | |||
performing its function. | |||
On July 1, 2016, at 0700, the licensee performed DB-OP-03006, Miscellaneous Instrument | |||
Shift Checks. Step 2.1.1 states, in part, a channel check shall be the qualitative assessment, | |||
by observation, of channel behavior during operation. Section 4.2 requires a channel check | |||
comparison for all four channels of the BWST level instrumentation. At that time, the level | |||
instrumentation string for Channel 1 was de-energized, with the level instrument | |||
disassembled. The licensee declared the channel check results satisfactory for Channel 1 by | |||
referring to compensatory measures, including proceduralized operator actions that were not | |||
applicable to the DB-OP-03006 acceptance criteria. | |||
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability and noted that the Channel 1 | |||
level instrument was not energized and was not physically attached to the system. The | |||
inspectors subsequently determined the licensee failed to complete section 4.2 of | |||
DB-OP-03006 for Channel 1 in accordance with Step 2.1.1 because the instrument string | |||
was not in operation at the time the surveillance was completed. Additionally, the inspectors | |||
determined the compensatory measures were not sufficient for the licensee to credit them | |||
toward satisfactory test results. | |||
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included declaring Channel 1 inoperable and | |||
performing corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable. | |||
The Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons | |||
learned. Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order; revised multiple | |||
procedures; and performed additional training regarding lessons learned from this event, | |||
Technical Specification compliance, and correct application of the operability determination | |||
process. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08419, | |||
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance. | |||
Performance Assessment: | |||
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to implement | |||
DB-OP-03006 was a performance deficiency. Specifically, step 2.1.1 requires a channel | |||
check be performed by observation during operation. However, the licensee could not | |||
perform the BWST level channel check comparison for Channel 1, as required by Step 4.2, | |||
because the Channel 1 instrument string was de-energized and disconnected from its | |||
associated system. | |||
Screening: The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it | |||
was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Equipment Performance | |||
and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of | |||
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, | |||
the failure to follow procedures to establish the operability of SFAS Channel 1 negatively | |||
affected the ability of the system to perform its accident mitigating function. Additionally, this | |||
failure led to a violation of Technical Specifications as detailed elsewhere in this report. | |||
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609.04, | |||
Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, Mitigating | |||
Systems Screening Questions. The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency | |||
did not result in a loss of a single train of a safety system for greater than its Technical | |||
Specification allowed outage time. Therefore, the inspectors determined the finding to be of | |||
very low safety significance (Green). | |||
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Procedure Adherence in the | |||
area of Human Performance, which states individuals follow processes, procedures, and work | |||
instructions. Specifically, the licensee declared the SFAS Channel 1 operable without | |||
meeting the acceptance criteria of the required procedures. [H.8] | |||
Enforcement: | |||
Violation: Title 10 CFR Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, | |||
requires, in part, that activities affecting quality be prescribed by documented instructions, | |||
procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be | |||
accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Instructions, | |||
procedures, or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance | |||
criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished. | |||
Step 2.1.1 of DB-OP-03006, Revision 55, an Appendix B procedure affecting Technical | |||
Specification-required equipment, states, in part, a channel check shall be the qualitative | |||
assessment, by observation, of channel behavior during operation. | |||
Contrary to the above, on July 1, 2016, the licensee failed to accomplish activities affecting | |||
quality in accordance with procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstances. | |||
Specifically, the licensee attempted to perform the Channel 1 BWST level instrument channel | |||
check while the instrument was de-energized and physically disconnected from its associated | |||
system, and thus not operating. | |||
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the | |||
licensees corrective action program as CR-2016-08419, this violation is being treated as an | |||
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-03: | |||

The NRC identified a finding of Green significance due to the licensees misapplication of | |||
NOP-OP-1009, Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments. Specifically, | |||
the licensee failed to apply the Operability Determination process in accordance with | |||
procedures. | |||
Description: | |||
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical | |||
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation. | |||
On June 30, 2016, at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level | |||
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable | |||
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. At this time, Reactor Operators | |||
entered TS 3.3.5.a, which required the inoperable channel be tripped. On July 1, 2016, | |||
at 0330, the channel was declared operable with reference to compensatory measures. At | |||
this time, the Channel 1 instrument was electrically and physically disconnected, and | |||
incapable of performing its function. A Prompt Operability Determination (POD) was initiated | |||
in an attempt to evaluate operability based on the compensatory measures. NOP-OP-1009, | |||
Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments step 4.3.11 required that in the | |||
case of PODs which have compensatory measures, the engineering director or designee | |||
must grant concurrence. However, the duty engineering manager (directors designee) | |||
indicated that operability could not be supported because the instrument could not meet its | |||
surveillance requirements, and therefore, he did not provide his concurrence. | |||
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability. From discussions with the | |||
licensee on July 1, 2016, the inspectors determined the defined compensatory measures | |||
were not sufficient for the licensee to declare Channel 1 operable. At 1325 on July 1, 2016, | |||
the licensee agreed with the inspectors assessment and declared Channel 1 inoperable. | |||
At 1351 maintenance was completed on Channel 1 and the channel was restored to service. | |||
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included declaring channel 1 inoperable and | |||
performing corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable. | |||
The Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons | |||
learned. Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order, performed additional | |||
training regarding lessons learned from this event, Technical Specification compliance, and | |||
correct application of the operability determination process. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08416, | |||
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance. | |||
Performance Assessment: | |||
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to implement | |||
NOP-OP-1009 was a performance deficiency. Specifically, step 4.3.11 required that in the | |||
case of a POD relying on compensatory measures, the engineering director or designee must | |||
grant concurrence. However, the engineering duty manager (directors designee) stated that | |||
operability could not be supported and that a POD could not be performed because the | |||
instrument could not meet its surveillance requirements, and therefore did not provide his | |||
concurrence. | |||
Screening: The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it | |||
was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Equipment Performance | |||
and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of | |||
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, | |||
the failure to follow procedures to establish the operability of SFAS Channel 1 negatively | |||
affected the ability of the system to perform its accident mitigating function. Additionally, this | |||
failure led to a violation of Technical Specifications as detailed elsewhere in this report. | |||
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609.04, | |||
Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, Initiating Events | |||
Screening Questions. The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency did not | |||
cause a reactor trip and the loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant | |||
from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition. Therefore, the inspectors | |||
determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green). | |||
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Consistent Process in the | |||
area of Human Performance, which states individuals use a consistent, systematic approach | |||
to make decision. Risk insights are incorporated as appropriate. Specifically, the licensee | |||
continued to push forward in the POD process despite the fact that they could not meet the | |||
requirements of the process. [H.13] | |||
Enforcement: No violation was identified. (FIN 05000346/2018002-04: Misapplication of | |||

PLANT STATUS
The unit remained at or near rated thermal power for the entirety of the inspection period.
On March 28, 2018, FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) / FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating
Company (FENOC) verbally notified the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that they intended to
shut down all four of their operating nuclear power plants. Based on that notification, the first to
shut down will be Davis-Besse, by May 31, 2020. On March 31, 2018, FES, FirstEnergy
Nuclear Generation (FENGEN), and FENOC filed for bankruptcy. The Nuclear Regulatory
Commission continues to maintain focus on public health and safety and the protection of the
environment. This will include a continuous evaluation by inspectors to determine whether the
licensees financial condition is impacting safe operation of the plant.
INSPECTION SCOPES
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in
effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with
their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-

Evaluation of Davis-Besse Safety Condition in Light of Financial Conditions
The licensees parent company, FirstEnergy Solutions, was under bankruptcy
protection/reorganization during the inspection period. As such, NRC Region III conducted
special reviews of processes at Davis-Besse. Using the flexibilities in the baseline inspection
program, the inspectors evaluated several aspects of the licensees operations to assess
whether any identified plant performance issues could be related to the stations financial
condition. The factors reviewed included: (1) impact on regulatory-required plant staffing,
(2) corrective maintenance backlog, (3) changes to the planned maintenance schedule,
(4) corrective action program implementation, and (5) reduction in outage scope, including
risk-significant modifications. In particular, the inspectors verified that licensee personnel
continued to identify problems at an appropriate threshold and enter these problems into the
corrective action program for resolution. The inspectors also verified that the licensee continued
to develop and implement corrective actions commensurate with the safety significance of the
problems identified.
The review of processes at Davis-Besse included continuous reviews by the Resident
Inspectors, as well as the specialist-led baseline inspections completed during the inspection
period which are documented previously in this report.
INSPECTION RESULTS

Observation - Selected Issue Follow-Up for 71152 - Annual Sample Review
CR-2018-03036: Misposition of Make Up Filter 1
Outlet Isolation (MU 177)
On March 31, 2018, while placing makeup system filter 1 in service using DB-OP-06006,
Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, the licensee received two unexpected alarms:
Letdown or MU [make-up] Filter dP [differential pressure] Hi followed by Letdown Pressure
Hi. The licensee immediately opened MU12B, the Makeup Filter 2 Inlet Isolation, to establish
letdown flow. During this time the letdown relief valve lifted and reseated, diverting
approximately six gallons of water to the reactor coolant drain tank.
Through the investigation of the issue, the licensee found MU177, the Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet
Isolation valve, had not been opened on March 30, 2018, as required by Step 4.9.16.j of
DB-OP-06006. The licensees corrective actions included operator remediation, a
requirement to have shiftly engagement calls with Operations Management, and
reinforcement of the value of reverse briefs by operators as a human performance tool. This
issue was documented in CR-2018-03036, Disposition of Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet
Isolation (MU177).
As appropriate, the inspectors verified the following attributes during their review of the
licensee's corrective actions for the above condition reports and other related condition
reports:
- complete and accurate identification of the problem in a timely manner commensurate
with its safety significance and ease of discovery;
- consideration of the extent of condition, generic implications, common cause, and
previous occurrences;
- evaluation and disposition of operability/functionality/reportability issues;
- classification and prioritization of the resolution of the problem commensurate with
safety significance;
- identification of corrective actions, which were appropriately focused to correct the
problem; and
- completion of corrective actions in a timely manner commensurate with the safety
significance of the issue.
The inspectors verified the licensee assessed and corrected the issue in a timely manner. A
violation associated with this issue is documented in this report.

Closed Follow-Up of
Selected
Issues
A self-revealed Green finding and associated Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, was identified when the licensee failed to follow station
procedure DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System. Specifically, the licensee failed
to open MU177, the Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation valve, which resulted in the isolation of
letdown while swapping make-up filters.
Description:
On March 31, 2018, while placing make-up system filter 1 in service using DB-OP-06006,
Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, the licensee received two unexpected
alarms: Letdown or MU [make-up] Filter dP [differential pressure] Hi followed by Letdown
Pressure Hi. The licensee immediately opened MU12B, the Makeup Filter 2 Inlet Isolation,
to establish letdown flow.
During investigation of the issue the licensee found MU177, the Make-up Filter 1 Outlet
Isolation Valve, unexpectedly closed. This was because on March 30, 2018, when preparing
to swap filters, the licensee failed to follow Step 4.9.16.j of DB-OP-06006, which required
opening of MU177. Additionally, the licensee determined that while letdown flow was
isolated, the letdown relief valve lifted and reseated. Approximately six gallons of water were
diverted to the reactor coolant drain tank.
Corrective Actions: The licensees corrective actions included operator remediation, a
requirement to have shiftly engagement calls with operations management, and
reinforcement of the value of reverse briefs by operators as a human performance tool.
Corrective Action Reference: This issue was documented in CR-2018-03036, Misposition
of Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation (MU177).
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to follow
DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, was a performance deficiency.
Specifically, the licensee failed to open MU177, Make-Up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation, as required
by Step 4.9.16.j.
Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with
Initiating Events cornerstone attribute of equipment performance, and adversely affected the
cornerstone objective of limiting the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and
challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically,
the licensees failure to open MU177 resulted in the letdown relief valve lifting, diverting
reactor coolant to the reactor coolant drain tank.
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Attachment 4, Initial
Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination
Process for Findings at Power, issued June 19, 2012, the finding was screened against the
Initiating Events cornerstone. The inspectors determined this issue was of very low safety
significance (Green) because the inspectors answered No to all the screening questions.
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding has a cross-cutting aspect of Avoid Complacency in the
area of the Human Performance because the licensee failed to recognize and plan for the
possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful
outcomes. Individuals implement appropriate error reduction tools. Specifically, the licensee
did not appropriately implement error reduction tools. [H.12]
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, states, in part, written procedures
shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the following activities: the
applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A,
February 1978. Section 3.n of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A,
February 1978, states, in part, instructions for energizing, filling, venting, draining, startup,
shutdown, and changing modes of operation should be prepared, as appropriate, for the
following systems: chemical and volume control system (including letdown/purification
system). Step 4.9.16.j of DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42,
stated, open MU177, Make-up Filter 1 Outlet Isolation.
Contrary to the above, on March 30, 2018, the licensee failed to implement a written
procedure required by Technical Specification 5.4.1.a. Specifically, the licensee failed to
implement procedure DB-OP-06006, Makeup and Purification System, Revision 42, which
resulted in the isolation of letdown while swapping make-up filters.
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the
licensees corrective action program as CR-2018-03036, this violation is being treated as an
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-01:

The NRC identified a finding of Green significance and an associated NCV of Technical Specification 3.3.5, Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) Instrumentation for the
licensees failure to place the reactor in Mode 3 within six hours of identifying that two
channels of SFAS Borated Water Storage Tank level instrumentation were inoperable.
Specifically, the licensee exited Technical Specification (TS) 3.3.5.b, the six hour shutdown
technical specification, while two BWST level instruments were still inoperable.
Description:
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation.
On June 30, 2016 at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. The Limiting Condition for
Operation (LCO) for Technical Specification 3.3.5 stated in part, four channels of SFAS
instrumentation for each Parameter [BWST level] shall be operable. At this time, Reactor
Operators entered TS 3.3.5.a, which required the inoperable channel be tripped. Later that
day at 2344, Channel 2 became inoperable due to a loss of power from a failed power supply.
At this time, operators should have entered TS 3.3.5.b, which required restoring at least one
channel immediately or placing the reactor into Mode 3 (hot shutdown), within six hours. At
0140 on July 1, 2016, operators realized that they should apply TS 3.3.5.b, but did not enter
the Technical Specification until 0245. At 0330, operators exited TS 3.3.5.b with Channel 1
declared operable with compensatory measures, including proceduralized operator actions to
be performed for a manual suction swap. At that time, the Channel 1 instrument was
electrically and physically disconnected and incapable of performing its function or passing
the Technical Specification required surveillance, which is required to be met in all modes of
applicability of the LCO.
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability. From discussions with the
licensee on July 1, 2016, the inspectors determined the defined compensatory measures
were not sufficient for the licensee to declare Channel 1 operable. At 1325 on July 1, 2016,
the licensee declared Channel 1 inoperable and reentered TS 3.3.5.b. At 1351, the licensee
exited TS 3.3.5.b after maintenance was completed and Channel 1 was restored to service.
The inspectors determined the reactor had been in a Mode other than Mode 3 (or lower) for a
total of 14 hours1.62037e-4 days <br />0.00389 hours <br />2.314815e-5 weeks <br />5.327e-6 months <br /> and 7 minutes.
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included reentering TS 3.3.5.b and performing
corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable. The
Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons learned.
Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order; revised multiple procedures;
and performed additional training regarding lessons learned from this event, Technical
Specification compliance, and correct application of the operability determination process.
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08419
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to place the reactor
in Mode 3 within six hours, as required by TS 3.3.5.b, was a performance deficiency.
Specifically, with two channels of the BWST level instrumentation inoperable, the licensee
failed to enter Mode 3 within six hours.
Screening: The finding was determined to be more than minor because it was associated
with the Mitigating Systems function of Long Term Heat Removal, and affected the
cornerstones objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems to
respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the finding
resulted in the loss of the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) suction swap permissive
function, which could have resulted in the loss of system safety function (i.e., ECCS due to a
premature suction source transfer).
Significance: The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in
accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04,
Phase 1-Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, for the Mitigating Systems
cornerstone. The inspectors evaluated the finding using Appendix A, The Significance
Determination Process for Findings At-Power. The inspectors answered Yes to Question
A.2 in Exhibit 2 because the finding represented the inoperability of the ECCS suction swap
permissive for fourteen hours, which was greater than the TS 3.3.5 allowed outage time of
hours for this function. Therefore, a detailed risk evaluation was performed using
IMC 0609, Appendix A. The risk evaluation was performed by Region III SRAs and the
bounding core damage frequency (CDF) was determined to be 7.0E-7/yr. Since the total
estimated change in core damage frequency was less than 1.0E-6/year, the finding/violation
was initially determined to be Green. Additionally since the CDF was greater than
1.0E-7/year, the finding was reviewed for potential Large Early Release Frequency (LERF)
contribution. Davis Besse is a 2-loop Babcock and Wilcox Pressurized Water Reactor with a
large dry containment. The core damage sequences important to LERF were steam
generator tube rupture events and inter-system LOCA events. These events were not the
dominant core damage sequences for this finding. Therefore, based on the detailed risk
evaluation, the SRAs confirmed that the finding was of very-low safety significance (Green).
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Conservative Bias in the
area of Human Performance, which states individuals use decision making practices that
emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is
determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. Specifically,
the licensee failed to use decision making practices that emphasized prudent choices, over
those that they believed were simply allowable. [H.14]
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 3.3.5.b, SFAS Instrumentation, states in part, with one of
more Parameters with two or more channels inoperable, be in Mode 3 within six hours.
Enforcement Actions: Contrary to the above, on July 1, 2016, the licensee failed to place the
reactor into Mode 3 within six hours of identifying one Parameter of SFAS instrumentation
with two channels inoperable. Specifically, licensee operators entered TS 3.3.5.b. at 0245
hours on July 1, 2016, following the determination that Channels 1 and 2 of SFAS
Instrumentation were inoperable. At 0330, licensee operators used inappropriate actions to
declare Channel 1 of SFAS Instrumentation operable, and subsequently failed to place the
reactor in Mode 3 before 0845 hours0.00978 days <br />0.235 hours <br />0.0014 weeks <br />3.215225e-4 months <br /> on July 1, 2016. Licensee operators appropriately
exited TS 3.3.5.b. at 1351 hours0.0156 days <br />0.375 hours <br />0.00223 weeks <br />5.140555e-4 months <br /> on July 1, 2016.
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the
licensees corrective action program as CR-2016-08419, this violation is being treated as an
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-02:

The NRC identified a finding of Green significance and an associated non-cited violation of
CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, due to
the licensees failure to implement DB-OP-03006, Miscellaneous Instrument Shift Checks,
Specifically, the licensee declared SFAS Channel 1 operable without performing the required
channel check.
Description:
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation.
On June 30, 2016, at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. On July 1, 2016, at 0330, the channel
was declared operable with reference to compensatory measures. At that time, the
Channel 1 instrument was electrically and physically disconnected, and incapable of
performing its function.
On July 1, 2016, at 0700, the licensee performed DB-OP-03006, Miscellaneous Instrument
Shift Checks. Step 2.1.1 states, in part, a channel check shall be the qualitative assessment,
by observation, of channel behavior during operation. Section 4.2 requires a channel check
comparison for all four channels of the BWST level instrumentation. At that time, the level
instrumentation string for Channel 1 was de-energized, with the level instrument
disassembled. The licensee declared the channel check results satisfactory for Channel 1 by
referring to compensatory measures, including proceduralized operator actions that were not
applicable to the DB-OP-03006 acceptance criteria.
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability and noted that the Channel 1
level instrument was not energized and was not physically attached to the system. The
inspectors subsequently determined the licensee failed to complete section 4.2 of
DB-OP-03006 for Channel 1 in accordance with Step 2.1.1 because the instrument string
was not in operation at the time the surveillance was completed. Additionally, the inspectors
determined the compensatory measures were not sufficient for the licensee to credit them
toward satisfactory test results.
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included declaring Channel 1 inoperable and
performing corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable.
The Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons
learned. Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order; revised multiple
procedures; and performed additional training regarding lessons learned from this event,
Technical Specification compliance, and correct application of the operability determination
process.
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08419,
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to implement
DB-OP-03006 was a performance deficiency. Specifically, step 2.1.1 requires a channel
check be performed by observation during operation. However, the licensee could not
perform the BWST level channel check comparison for Channel 1, as required by Step 4.2,
because the Channel 1 instrument string was de-energized and disconnected from its
associated system.
Screening: The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it
was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Equipment Performance
and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically,
the failure to follow procedures to establish the operability of SFAS Channel 1 negatively
affected the ability of the system to perform its accident mitigating function. Additionally, this
failure led to a violation of Technical Specifications as detailed elsewhere in this report.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609.04,
Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, Mitigating
Systems Screening Questions. The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency
did not result in a loss of a single train of a safety system for greater than its Technical
Specification allowed outage time. Therefore, the inspectors determined the finding to be of
very low safety significance (Green).
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Procedure Adherence in the
area of Human Performance, which states individuals follow processes, procedures, and work
instructions. Specifically, the licensee declared the SFAS Channel 1 operable without
meeting the acceptance criteria of the required procedures. [H.8]
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings,
requires, in part, that activities affecting quality be prescribed by documented instructions,
procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be
accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Instructions,
procedures, or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance
criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished.
Step 2.1.1 of DB-OP-03006, Revision 55, an Appendix B procedure affecting Technical
Specification-required equipment, states, in part, a channel check shall be the qualitative
assessment, by observation, of channel behavior during operation.
Contrary to the above, on July 1, 2016, the licensee failed to accomplish activities affecting
quality in accordance with procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstances.
Specifically, the licensee attempted to perform the Channel 1 BWST level instrument channel
check while the instrument was de-energized and physically disconnected from its associated
system, and thus not operating.
Disposition: Because it was of very low safety significance and was entered into the
licensees corrective action program as CR-2016-08419, this violation is being treated as an
NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000346/2018002-03:

The NRC identified a finding of Green significance due to the licensees misapplication of
NOP-OP-1009, Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments. Specifically,
the licensee failed to apply the Operability Determination process in accordance with
procedures.
Description:
Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000346/2016-008-01, Application of Technical
Specifications for the Safety Features Actuation System Instrumentation.
On June 30, 2016, at 0829 EDT, Channel 1 of the Borated Water Storage Tank (BWST) level
instrumentation for the Safety Features Actuation System (SFAS) was declared inoperable
and removed from service for scheduled maintenance. At this time, Reactor Operators
entered TS 3.3.5.a, which required the inoperable channel be tripped. On July 1, 2016,
at 0330, the channel was declared operable with reference to compensatory measures. At
this time, the Channel 1 instrument was electrically and physically disconnected, and
incapable of performing its function. A Prompt Operability Determination (POD) was initiated
in an attempt to evaluate operability based on the compensatory measures. NOP-OP-1009,
Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments step 4.3.11 required that in the
case of PODs which have compensatory measures, the engineering director or designee
must grant concurrence. However, the duty engineering manager (directors designee)
indicated that operability could not be supported because the instrument could not meet its
surveillance requirements, and therefore, he did not provide his concurrence.
The inspectors questioned the licensees basis for operability. From discussions with the
licensee on July 1, 2016, the inspectors determined the defined compensatory measures
were not sufficient for the licensee to declare Channel 1 operable. At 1325 on July 1, 2016,
the licensee agreed with the inspectors assessment and declared Channel 1 inoperable.
At 1351 maintenance was completed on Channel 1 and the channel was restored to service.
Corrective Actions: The corrective actions included declaring channel 1 inoperable and
performing corrective maintenance on the Channel 1 instrumentation to restore it to operable.
The Licensee performed a root cause analysis and developed a case study from lessons
learned. Additionally, the licensee issued an operations standing order, performed additional
training regarding lessons learned from this event, Technical Specification compliance, and
correct application of the operability determination process.
Corrective Action Reference: The licensee documented this issue in CR 2016-08416,
Performance review of LCO 3.3.5 application during LT1525A maintenance.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to implement
NOP-OP-1009 was a performance deficiency. Specifically, step 4.3.11 required that in the
case of a POD relying on compensatory measures, the engineering director or designee must
grant concurrence. However, the engineering duty manager (directors designee) stated that
operability could not be supported and that a POD could not be performed because the
instrument could not meet its surveillance requirements, and therefore did not provide his
concurrence.
Screening: The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it
was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Equipment Performance
and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of
systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically,
the failure to follow procedures to establish the operability of SFAS Channel 1 negatively
affected the ability of the system to perform its accident mitigating function. Additionally, this
failure led to a violation of Technical Specifications as detailed elsewhere in this report.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609.04,
Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, Initiating Events
Screening Questions. The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency did not
cause a reactor trip and the loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant
from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition. Therefore, the inspectors
determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green).
Cross Cutting Aspect: This finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Consistent Process in the
area of Human Performance, which states individuals use a consistent, systematic approach
to make decision. Risk insights are incorporated as appropriate. Specifically, the licensee
continued to push forward in the POD process despite the fact that they could not meet the
requirements of the process. [H.13]
Enforcement: No violation was identified. (FIN 05000346/2018002-04: Misapplication of
