PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000282/2018003 AND 05000306/2018003


*
==Dear Mr. Sharp:==
**
On September 30, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. On October 18, 2018, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.


**
Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has identified four issues that were evaluated under the risk significance determination process as having very low safety significance (Green). The NRC has also determined that three violations are associated with these issues.
 
Because the licensee initiated condition reports to address these issues, the violations are being treated as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs), consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The issues are described in the subject inspection report.
 
If you contest the violation or significance of any NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant.
 
If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; and the NRC resident inspector at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant. This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.
 
Sincerely,
/RA/

Introduction:
The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) as of
July 18, 2018, for the licensees failure to repair a D2 EDG jacket water leak per the Leak
Management Process.
Description:
The inspectors questioned engineering judgment used within AR 501000012585 regarding an
approximate 60 drops per minute (dpm) jacket water leak between cylinders 5C and 6C of
the D2 EDG observed during surveillance testing on May 29, 2018. Specifically, the
inspectors were concerned that there were several unknown issues, including leak source
and type, condition of the joint, etc. In response, the licensee issued a new AR and
performed a prompt operability determination (POD). This POD evaluated the likely sources
of the leak, noting that the leak self-sealed as the engine reached nominal load, and that D2
was operable. The inspectors reviewed the POD and questioned whether the leak should be
subject to an adverse condition monitoring plan based on continued unknowns and
assumptions about the leak, and to establish criteria at which the leak would no longer be
acceptable. The licensee initially agreed with creating a monitoring plan, but later determined
that it was unnecessary due to existing monitoring by system engineering and non-licensed
operator observations.
Prior to the next monthly surveillance, the licensee elected to remove D2 from service and to
identify the source of the jacket water leak. The licensee determined that the leak originated
from the jacket water bypass fitting cover gasket connection between cylinders 5C and 6C.
The licensee verified that the gasket was properly torqued and that there was no gasket
extrusion. During the next test of D2 on June 25, 2018, the maximum leakage seen at the
fitting cover location was approximately 32 dpm which eventually sealed itself as the engine
was unloaded. Based in part on the leak rate remaining within the prior POD-evaluated value
and the verification of torque on the bypass fitting cover fasteners, the station concluded the
D2 EDG was operable and decided to continue monitoring the leak during future surveillance
testing.
On or around July 18, 2018, the inspectors further questioned the POD regarding new
information gathered prior to the June 25, 2018 testing, and again, asked if a monitoring plan
was needed. The licensee agreed to revise the POD, but again decided that a monitoring
plan was unnecessary. At this point, the inspectors recognized during review of the CAP that
a self-sealing jacket water leak was first noted at the 5C and 6C D2 location on
August 28, 2017, and again on November 15, 2017. The inspectors also recognized that the
revised POD referenced FP-WM-LMP-01, Leak Management Process, (implemented at
Prairie Island on October 23, 2017) as the means for monitoring, tracking, trending, and
prioritizing repairs of the leak. The inspectors asked how this process was being applied for
the D2 jacket water leak since implementation of the process. The licensee determined that
this leak was never entered into the process. Subsequently, the inspectors noted that per the
process, the leak should have been classified as a Priority 3 leak upon discovery on
November 15, 2017, and repaired within 28 weeks of initial identification. The licensee
entered this concern into the CAP as AR 501000014540, generated actions to address the
extent of leaks not captured within the leak monitoring process, and performed condition
evaluations to determine why this process was not fully implemented for the D2 leakage.
During the next monthly slow start surveillance test on July 23, 2018, the D2 jacket water leak
increased to a maximum of 110 dpm and was slower to self-seal. Based on the
characteristics of the leak changing from prior evaluated conditions, the shift manager
declared the D2 EDG inoperable. The licensee disassembled the bypass fitting cover
between cylinders 5C and 6C (location of leak) and did not readily identify any issues with the
condition of the gasket or the sealing surfaces.
Corrective Actions: For the D2 EDG jacket water leak, the licensee replaced the cover and
gasket, and also took the opportunity to address several other minor leaks prior to returning
the D2 EDG to service. The licensee also performed an equipment cause evaluation,
forensic analysis of the cover and gasket, and a past operability review and determined that
the cause of the leaking bypass fitting cover was likely due to a slight out-of-flatness condition
that was either in place or developed since original installation. The inspectors determined
that the cause of the leak was not within the licensees ability to foresee and correct.
For the concerns related to implementation of the leak management process, the licensee
fully identified, categorized, and prioritized in-scope leaks into the process; took actions to
clearly identify a process owner to ensure that the process requirements were met going
forward; re-opened a change management plan; and elected to perform a 6-month
effectiveness review after the process was fully in place to ensure leaks were being
addressed per the process.
Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000014540; Leaks in the Plant are not Consistently
Dispositioned in Accordance with the Leak Management Process (FP-WM-LMP-01);
July 18, 2018
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to meet the self-imposed
voluntary initiatives of FP-WM-LMP-01, Leak Management Process, Revision 0 (a self-
imposed voluntary initiative) to prioritize, monitor, and correct a 60 dpm jacket water leak from
the D2 EDG within 28 weeks of November 15, 2017 (issue of concern) was a performance
deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was reasonably within the licensees ability to
foresee and correct and the issue of concern should have been prevented. Specifically,
following the issuance of FP-WM-LMP-01 at Prairie Island on October 23, 2017, a 60 dpm
jacket water leak was identified on the D2 EDG on November 15, 2017. Following issuance
of AR 501000005488 on that date, the leak was not prioritized, monitored, nor corrected
within 28 weeks of identification per the process. This resulted in the leak not being repaired
before D2 EDG was declared inoperable due to the leak on July 23, 2018.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor
because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone Attribute of Equipment
Performance to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to
initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, by not adhering to the
initiatives within FP-WM-LMP-01, the ongoing availability, reliability, and capability of the D2
EDG was not ensured due to a Priority 3 jacket water leak.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609
Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The
finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors
answered Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due
to the finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the
SSC maintained its operability.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Change Management
component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, which states that the licensee will
use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety
remains the overriding priority. Specifically, several critical actions were not performed as part
of the licensees transition from the existing to the new leak management process on
October 23, 2017, that resulted in unclear ownership and responsibilities of site personnel.
(H.3)
Enforcement:
The inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this
finding.

Introduction:
The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV
of Prairie Island Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures, as of August 9, 2018, for the
licensees failure to maintain a preventative maintenance strategy for sacrificial zinc anode
plugs on the jacket water system for the 12 and 22 cooling water pump diesel engines
(DDCLPs).
Description:
On August 9, 2018 the inspectors identified severely corroded zinc anode plugs on the 12
and 22 DDCLP engine jacket water/lubricating oil heat exchangers during plant status walk
downs of safety-related equipment. The inspectors immediately informed the duty shift
manager of the degraded condition. The shift manager initially determined the equipment
to be operable, but requested a prompt operability determination to verify that the condition
did not impact the DDCLP safety functions. During engineering review of the issue on
August 10, 2018, it was determined that the corrosion was to an extent that the jacket water
pressure boundary was in question and reasonable assurance of operability no longer
existed. At that point, the shift manager declared both the 12 and 22 DDCLPs inoperable and
LCO 3.0.3 was entered for both Units 1 and 2, requiring actions to be initiated within 1 hour to
place both units in Mode 3 within 7 hours. Approximately one hour later, the 121 motor-driven
cooling water pump was aligned to the A cooling water header, allowing exit from LCO 3.0.3
for both units, and entry into a 14-day LCO for the B cooling water header remaining
inoperable. Subsequently, the licensee made an 8-hour non-emergency notification to NRC
per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v). See equipment corrective actions below.
On August 24, 2018, the licensee completed an equipment cause evaluation and determined
that in 1989, station reviews of vendor recommendations determined that periodic inspection
of the plugs was not necessary due to the DDCLP jacket cooling medium not being salt water.
In November of 1995, annual inspections of the plugs was removed from annual preventive
maintenance procedures PM 3002-2-12[22], 12[22] DDCLP Diesel Minor Periodic
Maintenance. On September 1, 2018, the licensee completed a past operability
review (POR) and concluded that both the 12 and 22 DDCLPs would have been capable of
performing their specified safety functions for the as-found conditions based on post-removal
bench testing of the heat exchangers and forensic analyses.
Corrective Actions: The licensee replaced the 22 DDCLP heat exchanger, installed a
refurbished heat exchanger on the 12 DDCLP, and performed extent of condition reviews.
The licensee was developing final corrective actions to address the lack of preventive
maintenance at the end of the inspection period.
Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000015410, Diesel Driven Cooling Water Pumps
Degraded Anodes
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to maintain a preventative
maintenance strategy for sacrificial zinc anode plugs on the jacket water system for the 12
and 22 DDLCP diesel engines to preclude excessive corrosion that could challenge
operability (issue of concern) was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of
concern was reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of
concern should have been prevented. Specifically, the basis for removal of preventive
maintenance tasks for the anode plugs was inappropriate considering the wearable aspects
of the plugs. Further, the corrosion conditions were not identified during multiple walk downs
and inspections of the equipment since November of 1995 to reveal the inappropriate removal
of the PM task.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor
because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety
concern. Specifically, not having a preventive maintenance strategy to specify inspection or
replacement of parts that have a specific lifetime (in this case, sacrificial zinc anode plugs)
could have led to further degradation which would have had the potential for failure of the
limited-volume jacket water system pressure boundary for the 12 and/or 22 DDCLP.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609
Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at-Power. The
finding screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors answered
Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2-Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due to the
finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSCs for which the SSCs
maintained their operability.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: No cross-cutting aspect was assigned to this finding because the
performance deficiency occurred in November of 1995 and therefore was not indicative of
present licensee performance.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures states, in part, that written procedures
shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures
recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978.

Performing Maintenance and Section 9.b addresses Preventative maintenance schedules
should be developed to specify lubrication schedules, inspections of equipment, replacement
of such items as filters and strainers, and inspection or replacement of parts that have a
specific lifetime such as wear rings.
Contrary to the above, between circa November of 1995 and August 9, 2018, the licensee
failed to maintain a written procedure covering the applicable procedures recommended in
Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 9.b. Specifically, the licensees
preventative maintenance procedures PM 3002-2-12[22], 12[22] DDCLP Diesel Minor
Periodic Maintenance failed, in part to include provisions to ensure inspection or
replacement of parts that have a specific lifetime. In this case, sacrificial zinc anode plugs
within the safety-related 12 and 22 DDCLP jacket water system did not have inspection or
replacement provisions.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with
Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Introduction:
The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV
of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, as of
November 28, 2017, for the licensees failure to promptly identify a condition adverse to
quality associated with 122 DDCLP FOST vent piping.
Description:
On November 28, 2017, the inspectors identified a small hole in the vent piping for the
below-ground 122 DDCLP FOST (fuel oil supply for the 22 DDCLP). Refer to Unresolved
Item 05000252/2018001-02 within Prairie Island NRC Inspection Report 2018001 for more
details surrounding the licensees response to the condition. After correcting the issue
(replacing the section of pipe), the inspectors were provided the final apparent cause
evaluation for the issue during the week of June 25, 2018. The inspectors reviewed the
apparent and contributing causes of the issue and noted prior corrective action timeliness
issues within the corrective action program, a lack of implementation of the renewed
operating license external surfaces monitoring aging management program, and poor
interaction between these two programs to ensure that the degradation did not reach the point
of a hole developing in the piping. Overall, the ACE was conducted in a thorough manner to
address all identified deficiencies.
Corrective Actions: The licensee replaced the degraded section of the 122 DDCLP FOST
vent piping as well as similar adjacent vent piping for the 121 DDCLP and diesel-driven fire
pump FOSTs, and initiated several procedural changes to ensure more effective
implementation and ownership of the aging management programs at the station.
Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000010169, Response to Degraded FOST Vent Pipe,
March 30, 2018
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to effectively implement the
external surfaces monitoring aging management program between July of 2015 and
November 28, 2017, to preclude development of a hole in the 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe
(issue of concern), was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was
reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of concern should
have been prevented. Specifically, the licensee failed to implement several portions of
H65.2.14, External Surfaces Monitoring Aging Management Program that required, in part,
detection, monitoring and trending, acceptance criteria, and corrective actions for aging
effects identified at the station.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor
because if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency had the potential to lead to a more
significant safety concern. Specifically, if ownership and implementation problems with the
external surfaces monitoring aging management program had gone uncorrected, aging
mechanisms affecting other plant components had the potential to become more significant.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609
Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The
finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors
answered Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due
to the finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the
SSC maintained its operability.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Evaluation component of
the Problem Identification and Resolution cross-cutting area, which states that the licensee
will thoroughly evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes and extent of
conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, after identifying
degradation of the 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe in July of 2015, the licensee failed to properly
determine the degradation rate from an aging management perspective. This resulted in not
resolving the issue prior to identification of a hole in the vent pipe that had the potential to
impact the 22 DDCLP fuel oil supply. (P.2)
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires, in part,
that conditions adverse to quality, such as deficiencies and defective equipment, are promptly
identified.
Contrary to the above, as of November 28, 2017, the licensee failed to identify a condition
adverse to quality. Specifically, degradation that led to a through-wall hole in the safety-
related 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe, a condition adverse to quality, was not promptly
identified due to ineffective implementation of the licensees corrective action and aging
management programs when corrosion and pipe wall thinning was first identified in July
of 2015.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with
Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
The disposition of this finding and associated violation closes URI 05000252/2018001-02.

Introduction:
The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV
of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, as of
February 15, 2018, for the licensees failure to promptly identify and correct conditions
adverse to quality associated with the 21 125 VDC battery system.
Description:
During the week of February 12, 2018, the inspectors identified through-lid cracks on several
battery cells within the 21 125 VDC battery system. The inspectors reviewed CAP history,
vendor and operating experience information, and battery inspection procedures to determine
whether the licensee had previously identified the cracking condition in the past as a condition
adverse to quality. After determining that the licensee had identified the cracks as conditions
adverse to quality as early as 2009, the inspectors raised the following concerns to the
licensee on February 15, 2018, noting:
    *   inconsistencies in how new/worsening cracks were identified in the CAP and that no
interim monitoring or corrective actions were established because all battery cells
were originally planned for replacement in the Fall of 2017, but were deferred to the
Fall of 2019 due to availability issues. Particularly, the inspectors pointed out cracks
that were of various severity that were not previously identified by the licensee in the
CAP;
    *   that the licensee had not contacted the vendor for recommendations to address the
cracking issue as part of original identification of the issue, nor during their 2017
decision making process to defer cell replacement; and
    *    that the licensee had not evaluated the condition within their operability process to
determine whether the 21 battery system was fully qualified (i.e. not degraded or non-
conforming), and therefore did not consider whether corrective actions or
compensatory measures were not appropriate to ensure the condition did not continue
to worsen over time such that foreign material could enter the battery, nor potential
bypassing of the installed flame arrestors would not impact battery operability.
After raising these concerns, the licensee initially concluded that the 21 battery remained fully
qualified due to the lid cracking conditions. Refer to Unresolved Item 05000306/2018001-01
within Prairie Island NRC Inspection Report 2018001 for more details surrounding the timeline
of subsequent interactions between the inspectors and the licensee. Ultimately, following
issuance of the URI, the licensee revised the initial POD and concluded that the 21 125 VDC
battery system was operable but non-conforming due to the lid cracking conditions.
Corrective Actions: The licensee performed detailed inspections of the 21 battery to ensure
that all cracks were captured within the corrective action program, applied epoxy sealant to
the 21 battery lid cracks per vendor instructions on April 23, 2018, completed an apparent
cause evaluation for the issue on June 27, 2018, modified inspection procedures for the
batteries to specifically monitor for cracking, and completed an additional apparent cause
evaluation on July 24, 2018, that reviewed, in part, the causes surrounding the licensees use
of operating experience and vendor information at the station.
Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000010554, POD for 21 Battery Needs Revision,
April 9, 2018
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to completely identify
and properly evaluate operability of the 21 125 VDC battery system cell lid cracking
conditions adverse to quality (issue of concern) following questioning by the inspectors on
February 15, 2018, was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was
reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of concern should
have been prevented. Specifically, upon initial completion of a POD per FP-OP-OL-01,
Operability/Functionality Determination, following inspector questioning, the licensee
concluded that the 21 battery remained operable and fully qualified considering the lid
cracking condition, and therefore no corrective actions or compensatory measures were
needed to address the condition. However, upon further questioning by the inspectors, the
licensee revised the POD and determined that the 21 battery was operable but non-
conforming due to the condition and application of epoxy per vendor instructions was
appropriate.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor
because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone Attribute of Equipment
Performance to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to
initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, by not fully identifying
and correcting conditions adverse to quality, the ongoing availability, reliability, and capability
of the 21 battery system was not ensured.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609
Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The
finding screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors answered
Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due to the
finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the SSC
maintained its operability.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Conservative Bias
component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, which states that 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, licensee decision making practices associated with 21 battery
cell replacement deferral and subsequent operability conclusions did not demonstrate
prudency to address cell lid cracking conditions. (H.14)
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires, in part,
conditions adverse to quality, such as deficiencies and non-conformances are promptly
identified and corrected.
Contrary to the above, as of February 15, 2018, the licensee failed to promptly identify and
correct conditions adverse to quality. Specifically, through-lid cracks on 36 of 58 battery cells
within the safety-related 21 battery system, conditions adverse to quality, were not promptly
identified and corrected due to inadequate inspection guidance and criteria, incorrect
operability considerations, and ineffective operating experience reviews during cell
replacement deferral decision making in the Fall of 2017.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with
Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
The disposition of this finding and associated violation closes URI 05000306/2018001-01.
71152Problem Identification and Resolution
Observation                                                                              IP 71152
The inspectors reviewed an Apparent Cause Evaluation associated with AR 501000011168,
EDG Reliability Challenges, performed by the licensee to review organizational issues
associated with an adverse trend in EDG testing failures. This evaluation noted 11 EDG
reliability issues that had occurred since 2009 for which common underlying themes were not
well understood. The common theme identified as the apparent cause was associated with
precision maintenance practices not being incorporated into EDG procedures. The evaluation
also reviewed applicable vendor information and operating experience and ultimately
established corrective actions to review and enhance existing preventive maintenance
procedures. The inspectors assessment of this evaluation was that the common theme was
correctly identified and that corrective actions appeared appropriate to address the apparent
cause.
EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

SUBJECT:

PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000282/2018003 AND 05000306/2018003

Dear Mr. Sharp:

On September 30, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. On October 18, 2018, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has identified four issues that were evaluated under the risk significance determination process as having very low safety significance (Green). The NRC has also determined that three violations are associated with these issues.

Because the licensee initiated condition reports to address these issues, the violations are being treated as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs), consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The issues are described in the subject inspection report.

If you contest the violation or significance of any NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant.

If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; and the NRC resident inspector at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant. This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Opened and Closed

Introduction:

The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) as of

July 18, 2018, for the licensees failure to repair a D2 EDG jacket water leak per the Leak

Management Process.

Description:

The inspectors questioned engineering judgment used within AR 501000012585 regarding an

approximate 60 drops per minute (dpm) jacket water leak between cylinders 5C and 6C of

the D2 EDG observed during surveillance testing on May 29, 2018. Specifically, the

inspectors were concerned that there were several unknown issues, including leak source

and type, condition of the joint, etc. In response, the licensee issued a new AR and

performed a prompt operability determination (POD). This POD evaluated the likely sources

of the leak, noting that the leak self-sealed as the engine reached nominal load, and that D2

was operable. The inspectors reviewed the POD and questioned whether the leak should be

subject to an adverse condition monitoring plan based on continued unknowns and

assumptions about the leak, and to establish criteria at which the leak would no longer be

acceptable. The licensee initially agreed with creating a monitoring plan, but later determined

that it was unnecessary due to existing monitoring by system engineering and non-licensed

operator observations.

Prior to the next monthly surveillance, the licensee elected to remove D2 from service and to

identify the source of the jacket water leak. The licensee determined that the leak originated

from the jacket water bypass fitting cover gasket connection between cylinders 5C and 6C.

The licensee verified that the gasket was properly torqued and that there was no gasket

extrusion. During the next test of D2 on June 25, 2018, the maximum leakage seen at the

fitting cover location was approximately 32 dpm which eventually sealed itself as the engine

was unloaded. Based in part on the leak rate remaining within the prior POD-evaluated value

and the verification of torque on the bypass fitting cover fasteners, the station concluded the

D2 EDG was operable and decided to continue monitoring the leak during future surveillance

testing.

On or around July 18, 2018, the inspectors further questioned the POD regarding new

information gathered prior to the June 25, 2018 testing, and again, asked if a monitoring plan

was needed. The licensee agreed to revise the POD, but again decided that a monitoring

plan was unnecessary. At this point, the inspectors recognized during review of the CAP that

a self-sealing jacket water leak was first noted at the 5C and 6C D2 location on

August 28, 2017, and again on November 15, 2017. The inspectors also recognized that the

revised POD referenced FP-WM-LMP-01, Leak Management Process, (implemented at

Prairie Island on October 23, 2017) as the means for monitoring, tracking, trending, and

prioritizing repairs of the leak. The inspectors asked how this process was being applied for

the D2 jacket water leak since implementation of the process. The licensee determined that

this leak was never entered into the process. Subsequently, the inspectors noted that per the

process, the leak should have been classified as a Priority 3 leak upon discovery on

November 15, 2017, and repaired within 28 weeks of initial identification. The licensee

entered this concern into the CAP as AR 501000014540, generated actions to address the

extent of leaks not captured within the leak monitoring process, and performed condition

evaluations to determine why this process was not fully implemented for the D2 leakage.

During the next monthly slow start surveillance test on July 23, 2018, the D2 jacket water leak

increased to a maximum of 110 dpm and was slower to self-seal. Based on the

characteristics of the leak changing from prior evaluated conditions, the shift manager

declared the D2 EDG inoperable. The licensee disassembled the bypass fitting cover

between cylinders 5C and 6C (location of leak) and did not readily identify any issues with the

condition of the gasket or the sealing surfaces.

Corrective Actions: For the D2 EDG jacket water leak, the licensee replaced the cover and

gasket, and also took the opportunity to address several other minor leaks prior to returning

the D2 EDG to service. The licensee also performed an equipment cause evaluation,

forensic analysis of the cover and gasket, and a past operability review and determined that

the cause of the leaking bypass fitting cover was likely due to a slight out-of-flatness condition

that was either in place or developed since original installation. The inspectors determined

that the cause of the leak was not within the licensees ability to foresee and correct.

For the concerns related to implementation of the leak management process, the licensee

fully identified, categorized, and prioritized in-scope leaks into the process; took actions to

clearly identify a process owner to ensure that the process requirements were met going

forward; re-opened a change management plan; and elected to perform a 6-month

effectiveness review after the process was fully in place to ensure leaks were being

addressed per the process.

Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000014540; Leaks in the Plant are not Consistently

Dispositioned in Accordance with the Leak Management Process (FP-WM-LMP-01);

July 18, 2018

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to meet the self-imposed

voluntary initiatives of FP-WM-LMP-01, Leak Management Process, Revision 0 (a self-

imposed voluntary initiative) to prioritize, monitor, and correct a 60 dpm jacket water leak from

the D2 EDG within 28 weeks of November 15, 2017 (issue of concern) was a performance

deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was reasonably within the licensees ability to

foresee and correct and the issue of concern should have been prevented. Specifically,

following the issuance of FP-WM-LMP-01 at Prairie Island on October 23, 2017, a 60 dpm

jacket water leak was identified on the D2 EDG on November 15, 2017. Following issuance

of AR 501000005488 on that date, the leak was not prioritized, monitored, nor corrected

within 28 weeks of identification per the process. This resulted in the leak not being repaired

before D2 EDG was declared inoperable due to the leak on July 23, 2018.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone Attribute of Equipment

Performance to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to

initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, by not adhering to the

initiatives within FP-WM-LMP-01, the ongoing availability, reliability, and capability of the D2

EDG was not ensured due to a Priority 3 jacket water leak.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The

finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors

answered Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due

to the finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the

SSC maintained its operability.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Change Management

component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, which states that the licensee will

use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety

remains the overriding priority. Specifically, several critical actions were not performed as part

of the licensees transition from the existing to the new leak management process on

October 23, 2017, that resulted in unclear ownership and responsibilities of site personnel.

(H.3)

Enforcement:

The inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this

finding.

Failure to Maintain a Preventative Maintenance Strategy for 12 and 22 Cooling Water Pump

Diesel Engines

Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report

Mitigating Systems Green None 71152

NCV 05000282/2018003-02

Opened and Closed

Introduction:

The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV

of Prairie Island Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures, as of August 9, 2018, for the

licensees failure to maintain a preventative maintenance strategy for sacrificial zinc anode

plugs on the jacket water system for the 12 and 22 cooling water pump diesel engines

(DDCLPs).

Description:

On August 9, 2018 the inspectors identified severely corroded zinc anode plugs on the 12

and 22 DDCLP engine jacket water/lubricating oil heat exchangers during plant status walk

downs of safety-related equipment. The inspectors immediately informed the duty shift

manager of the degraded condition. The shift manager initially determined the equipment

to be operable, but requested a prompt operability determination to verify that the condition

did not impact the DDCLP safety functions. During engineering review of the issue on

August 10, 2018, it was determined that the corrosion was to an extent that the jacket water

pressure boundary was in question and reasonable assurance of operability no longer

existed. At that point, the shift manager declared both the 12 and 22 DDCLPs inoperable and

LCO 3.0.3 was entered for both Units 1 and 2, requiring actions to be initiated within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to

place both units in Mode 3 within 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br />. Approximately one hour later, the 121 motor-driven

cooling water pump was aligned to the A cooling water header, allowing exit from LCO 3.0.3

for both units, and entry into a 14-day LCO for the B cooling water header remaining

inoperable. Subsequently, the licensee made an 8-hour non-emergency notification to NRC

per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v). See equipment corrective actions below.

On August 24, 2018, the licensee completed an equipment cause evaluation and determined

that in 1989, station reviews of vendor recommendations determined that periodic inspection

of the plugs was not necessary due to the DDCLP jacket cooling medium not being salt water.

In November of 1995, annual inspections of the plugs was removed from annual preventive

maintenance procedures PM 3002-2-12[22], 12[22] DDCLP Diesel Minor Periodic

Maintenance. On September 1, 2018, the licensee completed a past operability

review (POR) and concluded that both the 12 and 22 DDCLPs would have been capable of

performing their specified safety functions for the as-found conditions based on post-removal

bench testing of the heat exchangers and forensic analyses.

Corrective Actions: The licensee replaced the 22 DDCLP heat exchanger, installed a

refurbished heat exchanger on the 12 DDCLP, and performed extent of condition reviews.

The licensee was developing final corrective actions to address the lack of preventive

maintenance at the end of the inspection period.

Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000015410, Diesel Driven Cooling Water Pumps

Degraded Anodes

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to maintain a preventative

maintenance strategy for sacrificial zinc anode plugs on the jacket water system for the 12

and 22 DDLCP diesel engines to preclude excessive corrosion that could challenge

operability (issue of concern) was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of

concern was reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of

concern should have been prevented. Specifically, the basis for removal of preventive

maintenance tasks for the anode plugs was inappropriate considering the wearable aspects

of the plugs. Further, the corrosion conditions were not identified during multiple walk downs

and inspections of the equipment since November of 1995 to reveal the inappropriate removal

of the PM task.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety

concern. Specifically, not having a preventive maintenance strategy to specify inspection or

replacement of parts that have a specific lifetime (in this case, sacrificial zinc anode plugs)

could have led to further degradation which would have had the potential for failure of the

limited-volume jacket water system pressure boundary for the 12 and/or 22 DDCLP.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at-Power. The

finding screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors answered

Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2-Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due to the

finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSCs for which the SSCs

maintained their operability.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: No cross-cutting aspect was assigned to this finding because the

performance deficiency occurred in November of 1995 and therefore was not indicative of

present licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures states, in part, that written procedures

shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures

recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978.

NRC Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 9 addresses Procedures for

Performing Maintenance and Section 9.b addresses Preventative maintenance schedules

should be developed to specify lubrication schedules, inspections of equipment, replacement

of such items as filters and strainers, and inspection or replacement of parts that have a

specific lifetime such as wear rings.

Contrary to the above, between circa November of 1995 and August 9, 2018, the licensee

failed to maintain a written procedure covering the applicable procedures recommended in

Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 9.b. Specifically, the licensees

preventative maintenance procedures PM 3002-2-12[22], 12[22] DDCLP Diesel Minor

Periodic Maintenance failed, in part to include provisions to ensure inspection or

replacement of parts that have a specific lifetime. In this case, sacrificial zinc anode plugs

within the safety-related 12 and 22 DDCLP jacket water system did not have inspection or

replacement provisions.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Mitigating Systems Green [P.2] - IP 71152

NCV 05000252/2018003-03; Evaluation

Closes URI 05000252/2018001-02

Introduction:

The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV

of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, as of

November 28, 2017, for the licensees failure to promptly identify a condition adverse to

quality associated with 122 DDCLP FOST vent piping.

Description:

On November 28, 2017, the inspectors identified a small hole in the vent piping for the

below-ground 122 DDCLP FOST (fuel oil supply for the 22 DDCLP). Refer to Unresolved

Item 05000252/2018001-02 within Prairie Island NRC Inspection Report 2018001 for more

details surrounding the licensees response to the condition. After correcting the issue

(replacing the section of pipe), the inspectors were provided the final apparent cause

evaluation for the issue during the week of June 25, 2018. The inspectors reviewed the

apparent and contributing causes of the issue and noted prior corrective action timeliness

issues within the corrective action program, a lack of implementation of the renewed

operating license external surfaces monitoring aging management program, and poor

interaction between these two programs to ensure that the degradation did not reach the point

of a hole developing in the piping. Overall, the ACE was conducted in a thorough manner to

address all identified deficiencies.

Corrective Actions: The licensee replaced the degraded section of the 122 DDCLP FOST

vent piping as well as similar adjacent vent piping for the 121 DDCLP and diesel-driven fire

pump FOSTs, and initiated several procedural changes to ensure more effective

implementation and ownership of the aging management programs at the station.

Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000010169, Response to Degraded FOST Vent Pipe,

March 30, 2018

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to effectively implement the

external surfaces monitoring aging management program between July of 2015 and

November 28, 2017, to preclude development of a hole in the 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe

(issue of concern), was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was

reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of concern should

have been prevented. Specifically, the licensee failed to implement several portions of

H65.2.14, External Surfaces Monitoring Aging Management Program that required, in part,

detection, monitoring and trending, acceptance criteria, and corrective actions for aging

effects identified at the station.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency had the potential to lead to a more

significant safety concern. Specifically, if ownership and implementation problems with the

external surfaces monitoring aging management program had gone uncorrected, aging

mechanisms affecting other plant components had the potential to become more significant.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The

finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors

answered Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2 - Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due

to the finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the

SSC maintained its operability.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Evaluation component of

the Problem Identification and Resolution cross-cutting area, which states that the licensee

will thoroughly evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes and extent of

conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, after identifying

degradation of the 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe in July of 2015, the licensee failed to properly

determine the degradation rate from an aging management perspective. This resulted in not

resolving the issue prior to identification of a hole in the vent pipe that had the potential to

impact the 22 DDCLP fuel oil supply. (P.2)

Enforcement:

Violation: Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires, in part,

that conditions adverse to quality, such as deficiencies and defective equipment, are promptly

identified.

Contrary to the above, as of November 28, 2017, the licensee failed to identify a condition

adverse to quality. Specifically, degradation that led to a through-wall hole in the safety-

related 122 DDCLP FOST vent pipe, a condition adverse to quality, was not promptly

identified due to ineffective implementation of the licensees corrective action and aging

management programs when corrosion and pipe wall thinning was first identified in July

of 2015.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

The disposition of this finding and associated violation closes URI 05000252/2018001-02.

Failure to Promptly Identify and Correct 21 125 VDC Battery Lid Conditions Adverse to

Quality

Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report

Mitigating Systems Green [H.14] - IP 71152

NCV 05000306/2018003-04; Conservative Bias

Closes URI 05000306/2018001-01

Introduction:

The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV

of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, as of

February 15, 2018, for the licensees failure to promptly identify and correct conditions

adverse to quality associated with the 21 125 VDC battery system.

Description:

During the week of February 12, 2018, the inspectors identified through-lid cracks on several

battery cells within the 21 125 VDC battery system. The inspectors reviewed CAP history,

vendor and operating experience information, and battery inspection procedures to determine

whether the licensee had previously identified the cracking condition in the past as a condition

adverse to quality. After determining that the licensee had identified the cracks as conditions

adverse to quality as early as 2009, the inspectors raised the following concerns to the

licensee on February 15, 2018, noting:

  • inconsistencies in how new/worsening cracks were identified in the CAP and that no

interim monitoring or corrective actions were established because all battery cells

were originally planned for replacement in the Fall of 2017, but were deferred to the

Fall of 2019 due to availability issues. Particularly, the inspectors pointed out cracks

that were of various severity that were not previously identified by the licensee in the

CAP;

  • that the licensee had not contacted the vendor for recommendations to address the

cracking issue as part of original identification of the issue, nor during their 2017

decision making process to defer cell replacement; and

  • that the licensee had not evaluated the condition within their operability process to

determine whether the 21 battery system was fully qualified (i.e. not degraded or non-

conforming), and therefore did not consider whether corrective actions or

compensatory measures were not appropriate to ensure the condition did not continue

to worsen over time such that foreign material could enter the battery, nor potential

bypassing of the installed flame arrestors would not impact battery operability.

After raising these concerns, the licensee initially concluded that the 21 battery remained fully

qualified due to the lid cracking conditions. Refer to Unresolved Item 05000306/2018001-01

within Prairie Island NRC Inspection Report 2018001 for more details surrounding the timeline

of subsequent interactions between the inspectors and the licensee. Ultimately, following

issuance of the URI, the licensee revised the initial POD and concluded that the 21 125 VDC

battery system was operable but non-conforming due to the lid cracking conditions.

Corrective Actions: The licensee performed detailed inspections of the 21 battery to ensure

that all cracks were captured within the corrective action program, applied epoxy sealant to

the 21 battery lid cracks per vendor instructions on April 23, 2018, completed an apparent

cause evaluation for the issue on June 27, 2018, modified inspection procedures for the

batteries to specifically monitor for cracking, and completed an additional apparent cause

evaluation on July 24, 2018, that reviewed, in part, the causes surrounding the licensees use

of operating experience and vendor information at the station.

Corrective Action Reference: AR 501000010554, POD for 21 Battery Needs Revision,

April 9, 2018

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that failing to completely identify

and properly evaluate operability of the 21 125 VDC battery system cell lid cracking

conditions adverse to quality (issue of concern) following questioning by the inspectors on

February 15, 2018, was a performance deficiency. The cause of the issue of concern was

reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct and the issue of concern should

have been prevented. Specifically, upon initial completion of a POD per FP-OP-OL-01,

Operability/Functionality Determination, following inspector questioning, the licensee

concluded that the 21 battery remained operable and fully qualified considering the lid

cracking condition, and therefore no corrective actions or compensatory measures were

needed to address the condition. However, upon further questioning by the inspectors, the

licensee revised the POD and determined that the 21 battery was operable but non-

conforming due to the condition and application of epoxy per vendor instructions was

appropriate.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone Attribute of Equipment

Performance to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to

initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, by not fully identifying

and correcting conditions adverse to quality, the ongoing availability, reliability, and capability

of the 21 battery system was not ensured.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609

Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. The

finding screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the inspectors answered

Yes to Question A.1 under Exhibit 2Mitigating Systems Screening Questions due to the

finding being a deficiency affecting the qualification of the mitigating SSC for which the SSC

maintained its operability.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Conservative Bias

component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, which states that 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, licensee decision making practices associated with 21 battery

cell replacement deferral and subsequent operability conclusions did not demonstrate

prudency to address cell lid cracking conditions. (H.14)

Enforcement:

Violation: Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, requires, in part,

conditions adverse to quality, such as deficiencies and non-conformances are promptly

identified and corrected.

Contrary to the above, as of February 15, 2018, the licensee failed to promptly identify and

correct conditions adverse to quality. Specifically, through-lid cracks on 36 of 58 battery cells

within the safety-related 21 battery system, conditions adverse to quality, were not promptly

identified and corrected due to inadequate inspection guidance and criteria, incorrect

operability considerations, and ineffective operating experience reviews during cell

replacement deferral decision making in the Fall of 2017.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

The disposition of this finding and associated violation closes URI 05000306/2018001-01.

71152Problem Identification and Resolution

Observation IP 71152

The inspectors reviewed an Apparent Cause Evaluation associated with AR 501000011168,

EDG Reliability Challenges, performed by the licensee to review organizational issues

associated with an adverse trend in EDG testing failures. This evaluation noted 11 EDG

reliability issues that had occurred since 2009 for which common underlying themes were not

well understood. The common theme identified as the apparent cause was associated with

precision maintenance practices not being incorporated into EDG procedures. The evaluation

also reviewed applicable vendor information and operating experience and ultimately

established corrective actions to review and enhance existing preventive maintenance

procedures. The inspectors assessment of this evaluation was that the common theme was

correctly identified and that corrective actions appeared appropriate to address the apparent

cause.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was controlled to protect from public

disclosure. No proprietary information was documented in this report.
