WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 2 CONSTRUCTION - OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION PLAN
==Dear Mr. Skaggs:==
This letter is to inform you of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) plans to inspect the areas listed in Appendix B of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2513, Light Water Reactor Inspection Program - Preoperational Testing and Operational Preparedness Phase, for Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Unit 2. This is in support of the overall determination regarding granting of an operational reactor license for WBN Unit 2. The purpose of the IMC 2513 Appendix B operational preparedness inspections is to verify that management controls and procedures, including quality assurance programs, security, operations, and radiological controls necessary for an operating reactor have been adequately implemented. Since many of these programs and procedures for WBN Unit 2 will be the same or nearly identical to those already established and in use for Unit 1, the NRC inspections will focus on aspects of these programs and procedures that are unique to Unit 2 or required substantive changes to cover Unit 2. The enclosed inspection plan identifies the proposed inspections for the inspection procedures listed in Appendix B of IMC 2513 and also contains the assessment results which provide the bases for reducing the inspection scope. Section 05 in IMC 2513 allows a reduction in the scope of operational preparedness inspections when applicable programs and procedures are already in use at an operating facility.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs 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).

and Title 36301;          Assessment Results: Unit 1 has existing, established programs in place that specify qualification Operational      requirements for the staffing positions and areas covered by this IP. Many of the Unit 2 staff positions Staffing        listed in the IP are already functioning in their capacity for Unit 1, therefore, the focus of inspection per this IP will be for individuals that are new to their position.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Determine which standard the site is committed (ANSI N18.1 has been superseded by ANS 3.1).
* Determine if additional staff is required.
* Verify staff is qualified per the applicable standard.
* Review 10% of the staff required by the standard to ensure that they meet the minimum requirements of the standard.
41301; Pre-      Assessment Results: Unit 1 has existing, established training programs in place for licensed operators licensing Review and non-licensed operations staff. Aspects of these programs have been reviewed by the NRC as part of of Training and  the licensed operator examination process and during inspection of the licensed operator requalification Qualification    program which is part of the Reactor Oversight Process (ROP). The acceptability of existing Unit 1 Programs and/or  training programs to cover Unit 2 licensed operator and non-licensed staff is supported, in part, by Unit 2 41500; Training  systems and equipment being very similar to Unit 1. In addition, the site is already under the Institute of Program          Nuclear Power Operations Training Accreditation program.
Effectiveness Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:

Procedures developed under this program have been implemented for Procedures      Unit 1 since the plant became operational in the mid-1990s. Furthermore, procedure adequacy is routinely evaluated in several ROP inspection procedures including 71111.11.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Review a sample of applicable procedures. The sample should cover each of the areas defined in the IP and approximate 10% of those available.
* Compare the procedures to Unit 1 and verify unit differences have been incorporated and ensure the criteria for procedure development in Regulatory Guide 1.33 criteria is met.
42452B;          Assessment Results: TVA has a well-established program for writing and controlling procedures for Emergency        abnormal conditions, off normal conditions, alarm conditions, emergencies or other significant events.
Procedures      Procedures developed under this program have been implemented for Unit 1 since the plant became operational in the mid-1990s. Furthermore, ROP inspection procedures 71111.11 and 71114 evaluate procedures covered by this IP.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Review a sample of applicable emergency procedures (EOPs, AOPs, and all Control Room annunciators). The sample should cover each of the areas defined above and include 5-10 procedures in each area.
* Compare the procedures to Unit 1 and verify unit differences have been incorporated and ensure the criteria for procedure development in Regulatory Guide 1.33 criteria is met.
71301; Technical Assessment Results: Unit 1 has existing, established Technical Specifications in place that are clear, Specification    enforceable, and accurately reflect the Unit 1 installed systems. Unit 2 Technical Specifications were Review          developed based on the Unit 1 Technical Specifications, then modified to reflect differences on Unit 2.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Compare Unit 1 and Unit 2 Technical Specifications to identify differences. Ensure unit differences are identified appropriately.
* Perform walkdown inspections of Unit 2 to verify that covered systems conform to Technical Specifications. For efficiency, this inspection can be combined with other as-built inspections, e.g.

WATTS BAR UNIT 2 IMC 2513 APPENDIX B, OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS PHASE INSPECTION PLAN 35744; QA    Assessment Results: For activities covered by this IP, TVA has well-established programs that have been Program-      implemented under Unit 1. The design control process in place during construction of Unit 2 has been Design        thoroughly inspected under IMC 2512 inspections via IPs 35060, 35960, & 37055. For Unit 1, the design Changes and  control process is a mature program that is routinely inspected under the ROP program. The temporary Modifications modification process is established under Unit 1 and is also inspected under the ROP program. TVA plans to use this existing temporary modification process for Unit 2 when it becomes operational.
This IP is required to be completed within the first six months after the license is issued. It is noted that sufficient samples may not be available (there are typically very few modifications performed online and very few temporary modifications). This IP recognizes that a limited scope inspection is appropriate for a second plant that is located at a site where this IP was previously inspected for the first plant.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Confirm that Unit 2 has been incorporated into the temporary modifications program by reviewing the applicable program procedure.
* Complete implementation sections II.1.b, and II.2.b, as allowed, based on the number of samples available within the first six months of operation.
42451;        Assessment Results: TVA has well-established maintenance procedures that have been successfully used Maintenance  for Unit 1 and common equipment. The majority of Unit 2 equipment is identical or very similar to the Procedures    counterpart equipment in Unit 1. Observations/inspection of maintenance activities under the ROP focus Inspection    on maintenance effectiveness and post maintenance testing inspections.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Confirm TVA has reviewed Unit 2 structures, systems and components (SSCs) for any unique equipment that would not be covered under existing maintenance procedures and has issued new procedures for this equipment.
* Review 5-7 of these procedures (or all that are available if less than 5) using the applicable guidance in the IP.

WATTS BAR UNIT 2 IMC 2513 APPENDIX B, OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS PHASE INSPECTION PLAN REFUELING Inspection    Assessment Results/ Inspection Scope Procedure No.
and Title 60501; Fuel  Assessment Results: TVA has well-established controls for fuel receipt, storage, and security that were Receipt and  used for the initial Unit 1 core and during subsequent fuel shipments that support periodic refueling. These Storage      same controls were used for the shipment of Unit 2 fuel that occurred in 2011. There is a common spent fuel pool at Watts Bar that will service both Unit 1 and Unit 2.
Fuel receipt inspections have already been performed for 4 containers that shipped Unit 2 fuel to the site; see NRC Inspection Reports 05000391/2011605 (C.1.7 - 2 samples) and 05000391/2011607 (C.1.6 - 2 samples). No findings were identified in these inspections.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, no additional inspection is necessary for IP 60501.
8
WATTS BAR UNIT 2 IMC 2513 APPENDIX B, OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS PHASE INSPECTION PLAN FIRE PROTECTION Inspection  Assessment Results/ Inspection Scope Procedure No. and Title 64704; Fire Assessment Results:
Protection  The fire protection program is common for both units. Unit 2 construction credited some of the existing fire Program    protection program elements that were already in-place for Unit 1. Under ROP inspections, the Unit 1 fire protection program is routinely evaluated quarterly, annually and triennially. As part of performance based inspections, the inspectors typically verify that the Appendix R/Fire Protection Program is being maintained.
Quarterly inspections of the fire protection program, as it applies to Unit 2 construction activities, have been performed under the guidance of IP 64051 since the resumption of Unit 2 construction in 2008. Significant changes were made to the Fire Protection Report in an effort to transition from the report being a single unit document to a dual unit document. These changes may have impacts on Unit 1 as well as Unit 2. It is necessary to understand the changes to the program and their impacts on both Units.
Inspection Scope: As described below, portions of this IP and other inspection initiatives will encompass the NRCs fire protection inspection plans for Unit 2.
* Efforts should be made to have the licensee identify which elements of the WB2 Fire Protection Program are the same as those currently in place and approved for WB1. Using IP 64704 as guidance, inspectors should independently verify a sample of those items to ensure that they are indeed implemented in the same manner (procedures for handling the combustible controls program, fire watches, compensatory actions, fire brigade, fire watches, etc.).
* Request and review a sample of changes that were made to the fire protection program/report to accommodate Unit 2 that may have had impacts on Unit 1. Perform inspections specified in IP 64704 that are determined to be applicable for Unit 2.
* For those program elements that are unique to WB2, inspectors should review and inspect those items (operator manual actions, multiple spurious operations, dedicated safe shutdown path, etc.) in accordance with IP 64100, Post-fire Safe Shutdown, Emergency Lighting and Oil Collection Capability at Operating and Near-term Operating Reactor Facilities.
* Using IP 71111.05T, Fire Protection (Triennial) as a guide, select 3-5 risk significant fire areas, including Unit 1/2 common areas and Unit 2 only areas, where possible and perform inspection activities identified in the inspection procedure to verify the Appendix R / Fire Protection Program is implemented as specified in the approved Fire Protection Report. Place additional emphasis on unique Unit 2 fire protection and safe shutdown equipment, procedures, barriers, manual actions, etc.

WATTS BAR UNIT 2 IMC 2513 APPENDIX B, OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS PHASE INSPECTION PLAN SURVEILLANCE Inspection    Assessment Results/ Inspection Scope Procedure No.
and Title 35745; QA    Assessment Results:
Program-      TVA has well-established surveillance testing and calibration programs that have been successfully Surveillance  implemented for Unit 1 and common equipment. The existing Unit 1 testing and surveillance program Testing and  (including calibrations) will be expanded to include Unit 2 equipment. Once this is verified, certain portions Calibration  of the program review inspection will not be required. The IP states, if necessary, that inspection of the Control      implementation portions of the IP may be deferred until after an operating license is issued, but should be completed within the first six months of operation, however, it is recommended that we attempt to perform the initial surveillances and calibrations inspection prior to startup. Inspection of in-service testing is covered by construction inspection using IP 73756 and inspection associated with Generic Letter 89-04, therefore this area will not be inspected as part of this IP. This IP recognizes that a limited scope inspection is appropriate for a second plant that is located at a site where this IP was previously inspected for the first plant.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Complete implementation sections, II.1.b and II.2.b in their entirety.
* Complete program review sections II.1.a.1 and II.2.a.1 to verify that either Unit 2 equipment has been added to the existing master schedule(s) or that a comparable master schedule(s) has been established for Unit 2 equipment.
* Verify that the existing Unit 1 testing and surveillance programs (including calibrations) have been expanded to include Unit 2 equipment.
35749; QA    Assessment Results:
Program-      General test and experiment program requirements for Unit 1 are well-established. TVAs 50.59 program Tests and    for Unit 1 has been routinely inspected under IP 71111.17T (currently a triennially ROP inspection). The Experiments  existing Unit 1 test and experiment controls will be expanded to include Unit 2 activities. Once this is verified, the program review inspections of this IP will not be required. The IP also states that the implementation portion may be deferred to within the first six months of operation since the requirements are only applicable during operations.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Verify that the existing Unit 1 tests and experiment controls program has been expanded to cover 10
WATTS BAR UNIT 2 IMC 2513 APPENDIX B, OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS PHASE INSPECTION PLAN Unit 2 activities. Based on this verification being completed, inspection of the program review section of the IP (II.1.a) and the conduct of interviews specified in section II.1.b (1) are not required.
* Perform the implementation Section II.1.b (2) within the first six months of operation, if samples are available.
35750; QA      Assessment Results:
Program-      TVA has a well-established program for the control of measuring and test equipment (M&TE) that has been Measuring and  successfully implemented for activities involving Unit 1 and common equipment. Unit 2 construction Test Equipment activities use M&TE that is provided and controlled under the existing Unit 1 program. This was verified during an NRC inspection conducted in the 1st quarter of 2012 (Inspection Report 05000391/2012-602).
TVA plans to continue the use of M&TE controlled under the Unit 1 program for the remainder of the Unit 2 construction project (this will include Unit 2 preoperational and startup testing activities) and once Unit 2 becomes operational.
Inspection Scope: Based on the above, this IP will be used as guidance to complete the following:
* Verify that Unit 2 preoperational and startup testing activities utilize M&TE that is covered under the existing Unit 1 site program, or, if this cannot be verified, implement this IP for preoperational and startup testing.
* Verify that the existing site M&TE program covers Unit 2 activities, once Unit 2 becomes operational, no inspection further inspection is required under this IP, or, perform this IP if a new or different M&TE program will be used for Unit 2 operations.

SUBJECT:

WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT 2 CONSTRUCTION - OPERATIONAL PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION PLAN

Dear Mr. Skaggs:

This letter is to inform you of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) plans to inspect the areas listed in Appendix B of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2513, Light Water Reactor Inspection Program - Preoperational Testing and Operational Preparedness Phase, for Watts Bar Nuclear (WBN) Unit 2. This is in support of the overall determination regarding granting of an operational reactor license for WBN Unit 2. The purpose of the IMC 2513 Appendix B operational preparedness inspections is to verify that management controls and procedures, including quality assurance programs, security, operations, and radiological controls necessary for an operating reactor have been adequately implemented. Since many of these programs and procedures for WBN Unit 2 will be the same or nearly identical to those already established and in use for Unit 1, the NRC inspections will focus on aspects of these programs and procedures that are unique to Unit 2 or required substantive changes to cover Unit 2. The enclosed inspection plan identifies the proposed inspections for the inspection procedures listed in Appendix B of IMC 2513 and also contains the assessment results which provide the bases for reducing the inspection scope. Section 05 in IMC 2513 allows a reduction in the scope of operational preparedness inspections when applicable programs and procedures are already in use at an operating facility.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs 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).

Protection The fire protection program is common for both units. Unit 2 construction credited some of the existing fire Program protection program elements that were already in-place for Unit 1. Under ROP inspections, the Unit 1 fire protection program is routinely evaluated quarterly, annually and triennially. As part of performance based inspections, the inspectors typically verify that the Appendix R/Fire Protection Program is being maintained.

Quarterly inspections of the fire protection program, as it applies to Unit 2 construction activities, have been performed under the guidance of IP 64051 since the resumption of Unit 2 construction in 2008. Significant changes were made to the Fire Protection Report in an effort to transition from the report being a single unit document to a dual unit document. These changes may have impacts on Unit 1 as well as Unit 2. It is necessary to understand the changes to the program and their impacts on both Units.

Inspection Scope: As described below, portions of this IP and other inspection initiatives will encompass the NRCs fire protection inspection plans for Unit 2.

  • Efforts should be made to have the licensee identify which elements of the WB2 Fire Protection Program are the same as those currently in place and approved for WB1. Using IP 64704 as guidance, inspectors should independently verify a sample of those items to ensure that they are indeed implemented in the same manner (procedures for handling the combustible controls program, fire watches, compensatory actions, fire brigade, fire watches, etc.).
  • Request and review a sample of changes that were made to the fire protection program/report to accommodate Unit 2 that may have had impacts on Unit 1. Perform inspections specified in IP 64704 that are determined to be applicable for Unit 2.
  • Using IP 71111.05T, Fire Protection (Triennial) as a guide, select 3-5 risk significant fire areas, including Unit 1/2 common areas and Unit 2 only areas, where possible and perform inspection activities identified in the inspection procedure to verify the Appendix R / Fire Protection Program is implemented as specified in the approved Fire Protection Report.
