Pressurized Water Reactor - ?'U.S.NRC Internals - Materials & Operating U nited Staccs Nuclear Retiulatory C ommission Pruucting People and the Environment Conditions
- Material is mainly Type 304. stainless steel
- Exposed to reactor coolant water at -550-600 degrees F
- Reactor coolant water chemistry is carefully controlled to limit oxygen and impurities to very low levels
- High levels of neutron irradiation
- Some forms of materials degradation not seen elsewhere in the plant can occur in RVI due to the high radiation levels.
Pressurized Water Reactor 7 U.S.NRC Internals - Aging Effects in RV/ United States Nuclear Regulatory Co.mmissfon Protecting People and the Environmmt
- Embrittlement
- Neutrons damage the material over time:
- Material strength increases
- Ductility decreases
- Combination of a corrosive environment and sustained stress causes cracking in certain materials
- Not usually a problem in PWR internals because of good water chemistry
- Irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking
- A form of stress corrosion cracking that affects highly irradiated stainless steel
Aging Effects in RV/ (cont.) 7 U.S.NRC United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting Peopk a,ul the Environment
- Fatigue
- Repetitive stress cycles can eventually cause cracks. Usually not a problem in RVI because it is prevented by design procedures
- Void swelling
- Materials forms voids causing a volume increase
- Only expected in the most highly irradiated parts of internals
- Irradiation Creep
- Under high irradiation an a constant stress, material can deform causing dimensional changes.
- Irradiation Stress Relaxation
- Caused by the same process as irradiation creep, but causes a loss of preload in bolts instead of dimensional change.
- Can cause bolted joints to loosen.
Pressurized Water Reactor U.S.NRC Internals - Design of Reactor United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting Peopf.e and the Environment Vessel Internals
- ASME Code, Section Ill did not have rules for design of RVI in early 1970's when many current operating plants were designed
- Therefore, RVI for many plants were not designed or fabricated using ASME Code rules.
- Designers tried to follow the Code to the extent possible for RVI.
- For example, Indian Point Unit 3, used the stress criteria of the ASME Code, Section Ill as a guide during design.
Pressurized Water Reactor - ,/ U.S.NRC U nited Stares Nuclear Regulatory Commission Internals ASME Code Protecting Peopl.e and the Environment
- American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code) provides the "rulebook" for design and inspection of nuclear plant piping and vessels.
- ASME Code Sections 111 and XI are incorporated by reference in 10 CFR 50 .55a, "Codes and Standards"
- Section Ill - Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Component
- Covers materials, design, fabrication , examination and testing during construction
- Section XI - Rules for lnservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components
- Specifies periodic inspection of piping systems and vessels

71 U.S.NRC Un ited Stares N uclear Regulatory Co mmission Internals - lnservice Inspection Protecting Peopk and the Environment (ISi)
- All plants have an ISi program based on ASME Code,Section XI as described in their FSAR.
- Plant systems are classified as Class 1, 2, or 3 based on safety significance.
- Reactor coolant system is generally Class 1.
- Section XI requires ultrasonic examination of welds in Class 1 piping and vessels.
- Examinations are done on a ten-year interval.
- For reactor internals, only visual examination is required by Sect~
- Visual examination for general structural and me ical conditio~
called VT-3 by the Code. }
Pressurized Water Reactor Internals -
Licensing Basics U.S.NRC United States Nudea.r Regulatory Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- Commercial power reactors are licensed under
- 10 CFR 50 (currently operating)
- 10 CFR 52 (new reactors - combined operating license)
- Original operating license for all reactors is for 40 years.
- License renewal - Licensees may apply to renew the license for 20 more years under 10 CFR 54.
Pressurized Water Reactor . U.S.NRC Un ited Sta,c.s Nuclear Regulatory Commission Internals - License Renewal Protecting Peopl.e and the Environment
- In scope SSCs are:
- safety related
- reactor coolant pressure boundary
- Prevent offsite radiation exposures in excess of certain limits
- Non-safety related whose failure could impact safety function of safety related components
- Needed for other regulated processes, such as fire protection or station blackout
Pressurized Water Reactor Internals - U.S.NRC License Renewal Un ited Stares Nuclear R.egulacory Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- One of the key requirements for the Commission to issue a renewed license is that the applicant must provide reasonable assurance that the aging effects are managed, such that there is reasonable assurance that the systems, structures and components can perform their "intended functions" until the end of the 20-year license extension.
- "Aging Effects" include corrosion, cracking, fatigue, and embrittlement
- Embrittlement of a material means it takes less energy to break
- Exposure of steel to neutron irradiation from the reactor causes the steel to become embrittled over time.
- "Effects" vs "Mechanism"
LR In-Scope Components Subject .,;;U.S.NRC to Aging Management Uni ted States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting People and the Environment s,eam Generator
License Renewal - What .7U.S.NRC United States N uclear Regulatory Commissfon components are subject to aging Protecting People and the Environment management?
- Only systems, structures or components (SSC) that are "passive" and "long-lived" are subject to aging management.
- *"Passive".means an SSC performs its function without moving parts or a change in configuration or properties
- Example -piping, reactor vessel, containment building, valve and pump bodies
- However, valve internals such as stems and discs are excluded, because they move, as are pump impellers.
- In reactor, control rods are not subject to aging management because they are neither passive nor long lived.
- "Long Lived" components are not subject to replacement based on a qualified life or specified time period. In other words, things expected to last the life of the plant.
Current Licensing Basis .
7 U.S.NRC United States Nuclear Regula tory Commission Protecting Peopk and the Environment
- Per§ 54.3 Current licensing basis (CLB) is the set of NRC requirements applicable to a specific plant and a licensee's written commitments for ensuring compliance with and operation within applicable NRC requirements and the plant-specific design basis (including all modifications and additions to such commitments over the life of the license) that are docketed and in effect. The CLB includes the NRC regulations contained in 10 CFR parts2, 19,20,21,26, 30,40,50,51,52,54,55, 70, 72, 73, 100and appendices thereto; orders; license conditions; exemptions; and technical specifications. It also includes the plant-specific design-basis information defined in 10 CFR 50.2 as documented in the most recent final safety analysis report (FSAR) as required by 10 CFR 50. 71 and the licensee's commitments remaining in effect that were made in docketed licensing correspondence such as licensee responses to NRC bulletins, generic letters, and enforcement actions, as well licensee commitments documented in NRC saf ~ luations or licensee event reports. ~~
Time-Limited Aging Analyses -..5'U.S.NRC (TLAA) per§ 54.3: United $rares Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting People and the Envirunment
- (1) Involve systems, structures, and components within the scope of license renewal, as delineated in§ 54.4(a);
- (2) Consider the effects of aging;
- (3) Involve time-limited assumptions defined by the current operating term, for examp_le, 40 years;
- (4) Were determined to be relevant by the licensee in making a safety determination;
- (5) Involve conclusions or provide the basis for conclusions related to the capability of the system, structure, and component to perform its intended functions, as delineated in § 54.4(b): and
- (6) Are contained or incorporated by reference in the Current Licensin Basis (CLB.)
License Renewal and Current . U.S.NRC United States Nucle.ar Regulatory Cor.nmission Licensing Basis Protecting People and the Environment
- For license renewal, applicants need to show the CLB will be maintained for the period of extended operation, but are not required to make changes to the CLB.
- For example, a structural analysis of the RVI is described in the IP2 UFSAR.
- This analysis does not consider the properties of the RVI after irradiation, and has no time-limited assumptions.
- This analysis is therefore not TLAA.
- The applicant does not have to revise the RVI structural analysis to consider irradiated properties of the steel for license renewal.
Aging Management Progran,s 7 U.S.NRC U nited SurcJ Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- Applicants may credit an aging management program to manage aging effects
- Programs may be existing plant programs such as lSI or new programs just for license renewal
- Programs may rely on inspection such as the ISi program, or may be preventive, such as Water Chemistry.
- For RVI, staff determined ISi program wasn't sufficient by itself to manage all the aging effects.
License Renewal Guidance ?'U.S.NRC United States Nuclear Regulatory Commissio!l Protecting People and the Environment
- NUREG-1801, Generic Aging Lessons Learned Report (GALL),
provides guidance for
- aging management review - what aging effects should be managed for specific SSCs, and what programs manage them?
- Analysis of Time-Limited Aging Analyses
- Aging Management Programs
- NUREG-1800, Standard Review Plan for License Renewal
- Staff periodically revises these documents.
- Staff may issue Interim Staff Guidance (ISG) if portions of GALL or SRP-LR need to be revised between major revisions of the NUREGs.
- NRC guidance is considered one acceptable method for applicants to comply with 10 CFR 54; however, it is not regulation and applica may use other methods. J
Industry RV/ Aging Managen,ent .
7 U.S.NRC United Stares Nuclear Regulatory Commission Program Protecting People and the Envir011ment
- The industry, led by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI),
began development of an aging management program for PWR internals around year 2000.
- Industry program needed results from materials testing that was not complete yet
- NRC staff allowed applicants for renewed licenses to make a commitment to implement the industry program once it was issued.
- The report describing industry's recommended program was submitted to NRC for review and approval on 1/12/2009.
- MRP-227, Rev. 0, Materials Reliability Program: Pressurized Water Reactor Internals Inspections and Evaluation Guidelines
MRP-227 U.S.NRC United Stares Nuclear Regulatory Corn mission Protecting People and the Environment
- MRP-227, Rev. 0 is primarily an inspection-based program.
- Prescribes inspections of certain components of the RVI using different methods than specified by .the ASME Code
- Higher-resolution visual examination (EVT-1)
- Ultrasonic examination (UT)
- Components inspected based on likelihood and safety impact of aging
- Specifies inspections for three different generic designs: Babcock &
Wilcox (B&W), Combustion Engineering, and Westinghouse.
- NRC staff approved MRP-227 with several conditions and action items, in safety evaluation dated 12/16/11 .

- NRC develops a safety evaluation report (SER) to document its review of a license renewal application.
- Staff reviews the LRA against criteria in the GALL report and SRP-LR, and the regulations (10 CFR 54):
- NRC staff may issue Requests for Additional Information (RAI) to the applicant when it needs more information to make a safety determination.
- NRC staff may perform audits, particularly to verify applicant's claims that AMPs are consistent with GALL.
§ 2.309(f)(1) Says to be admitted a . U.S.NRC contention must: United S1accs Nuclear Rcgulacory Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- (i) Provide a specific statement of the issue of law or fact to be raised or controverted . . .
- (ii) Provide a brief explanation of the basis for the contention;
- (iii) Demonstrate that the issue raised in the contention is within the scope of the proceeding;

- (vi) . .. . [P]rovide sufficient information to show that a genuine dispute exists with the applicanUlicensee on a material issue of law or fact.
- I.e., you can't just say "Nuclear is bad"
§ 2.309 - Requirement for Standing - ,.-:; U.S.NR C U nited Srarc:s Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- Parties filing contentions must have "standing"
- Key factors for the ASLB to consider with respect to standing are:
- The nature and extent of the requestor's/petitioner's property, financial or other interests in the proceeding; and
- The possible effect of any decision or order that may be issued in the proceeding on the requestor's/petitioner's interest;
Conduct of License Renewal ~-, U.S.NRC United Scates Noclcar Regulatory Commission Hearings Protecting People and the Environment
- Three-judge panel
- Prefiled written testimony is filed by all parties.
- Hearing is conducted similar to a trial
- Expert witnesses testify for each party
- Attorneys are present for each party
- Judges ask questions of the witnesses
- Judges may or may not allow cross examination
- The ASLB will rule on the contentions after the hearing.
- Parties may appeal.
Case Study- Indian Point * .. .
7 U.S.NRC United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Protecting People ana the Environment
- SER for LR of IP2 and IP3, NUREG-1930, was issued in August 2009 after a 28-month review period.
- Normally, the commission would issue the renewed license within about 6 months of the SER publication.
- Due to contentions, IP2 and IP3 renewed license has been delayed.
- For IP2 and IP3, after the LR SER was published, but before a .
renewed license was issued, the applicant submitted new information.
Case Study - Indian Point ,. U.S.NRC United Stares Nuclear Regu lacory Commission Protecting Peopk and the Environment
- Since the staff had not yet approved MRP-227, Rev. 0, the review of the amendment went through several iterations.
- Applicant also submitted its RVI Inspection Plan on 9/28/2011, 24 months before IP2 end of original 40-year license, to fulfill its commitment.
- A revised RVI inspection plan submitted on 2/17/2012 consistent with NRC-approved version of MRP-227, published 1/9/2012. (MRP-227-A)
- NRC reviewed RVI AMP and Inspection Plan using Interim Staff Guidance that updated Rev. 2 of GALL to reference MRP-227-A.
- NRC issued Supplement 2 to the SER on 11/7/2014 to document its review and approval of IP2 and IP3 RVI AMP and Inspection Plan.

Case Study - Indian Point United Staces Nuclear Regulatory Commission Hearings Protecting People a,u,/ the Environment
- Atomic Energy Act Section 189 provides allows Commission to grant a hearing for granting, suspending, revoking or amending any license
- Atomic Energy Act Section 191 establishes the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board and authorizes it to conduct such hearings
- § 54.27 allows for hearings under §2.309, "Hearing requests, petitions to intervene, requirements for standing, and contentions"
- Under§ 2.309, Any person whose interest may be affected by a proceeding and who desires to participate as a party must file a written request for hearing and a specification of the contentions which the person seeks to have litigated in the hearing.
- ASLB also conducts the hearings related to granting licenses and amendments under § 50, petitions under §2.206. All hearings are conducted under the rules of §2.
Case Study - Indian Point - u.S.NRC Contention NYS-25 United Staccs Nucle.ar Rcgul.arnry Commission Protecting People and the Environment
- Original: Entergy's license renewal application does not include an adequate plan to monitor and manage the effects of aging due to embrittlement of the reactor pressure vessels ("RPVs") and the associated internals.
- The LRA does not include an adequate plan to monitor and manage the effects of aging due to embrittlement of the reactor pressure vessels. ("RPVs") and the associated internals at both plants, pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 54.21 (a), and an evaluation of time limited aging analysis, pursuant to 10 C.F.R. § 54.21 (c).
- Amended - Acknowledged that Entergy has a program for managing aging of reactor vessel internals, but argues that it is inadequate.
Focus shifted away from RPV to RVI.
Case Study - Indian Point U.S.NRC United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Contention NYS-25 Protecting People and the Environment
- One of New York's bases for NYS-25 was that Entergy should revise the RVI structural analyses to consider embrittlement.
- This is not required by § 54 since the analysis in the CLB didn't consider embrittlement.
- Other bases included:
- Failure to considered combined or "synergistic" effects of multiple aging effects, particularly fatigue and embrittlement
- Inadequacy of inspection methods,
- Components not being preventively replaced
- Fatigue calculations did not include an error analysis
Case Study - Indian Point U.S.NRC United Sraues Nuclear Regularory Commission Hearing Aftermath and Tin,e/y Protecting People and the Environment Renewal
- Hearing on NYS-25, plus two other contentions, held November 16-20, 2015 in Tarrytown NY.
- The ASLB will probably take several months to issue its decision on NYS-25 and the other contentions.
- Due to contentions, the commission has still not made a decision on whether to issue a renewed license for IP2 and IP3
- Meanwhile, the original license for IP2 expired on 9/28/2013, and for IP3 expired on 12/12/2015.
- Because the NRC has not made a final determination on whether to issue a renewed license, under the regulation called "timely renewal",
the plants are allowed to continue to operate until the NRG makes a final decision.

St. Lucie Unit 1 - Rebuilt MSIV Fails After 230 Days in Use Executive Summary:
To support an Extended Power Uprate (EPU), new internals were installed in both Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIV). It was not known at the time, but new tail links did not meet design specification dimensional drawings (they were oversized). The oversized tail links did not allow the valves to backseat fully, leaving the disc partially in the flow stream. This exposed the valves to unintentional dynamic loading, which ultimately resulted in the failure of internal parts. For the "B" MSIV, the failure caused the valve disc to seat uncontrollably while at 100% power, tripping the reactor. The direct cause was that the valve disc was not backseated which allowed unintentional loading of internal parts. The root causes were that the tail links did not meet design specification dimensional drawings and that the engineering change package did not include a verification that the modified valves would open fully.
COMM Groups Notified:
All Communications, Inspection Programs, Main Steam & Condensate/Feed Systems, Materials/Aging, New Reactors, Power Uprate, Pump and Valve Performance, and Vendor & Quality Assurance.
Background:
St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 are two loop Combustion Engineering plants. St. Lucie 1 received a Power Uprate approval on July 9, 2012 (ML12191A220). The approval authorized a 10.0% extended power uprate (EPU) and a
- 1. 7% measurement uncertainty recapture, increasing the maximum steady-state reactor core power level from 2700 megawatts thermal (MWt) to 3020 MWt.
To support the approved higher power levels, the Main Steam Isolation Valves (MSIV) internals had to be upgraded to insure they could withstand the impact stresses associated with spurious closure at the higher steam velocities. It was determined that the original MSIV body (Schutte and Koerting, Co (now Ametek, Inc.), model M?0-00656-V) could be retained and did not need to be replaced. Kalsi engineering provided the design and analysis (Engineering Change Package EC246556) with an independent third party design review by Zachary Engineering. Zachary Engineering (a separate group from the independent design analysis) provided the installation and post maintenance testing requirements. Flowserve manufactured and performed the field work to install the new internal valve components. Enertech provided and installed a new electro-hydraulic actuator to replace the existing pneumatic actuator. Bechtel provided QA services at Flowserve during parts manufacture.
[NOTE: the licensee's root cause evaluation noted that this complex project structure created an error likely environment.]

The work orders that installed the internals and actuator required stroke length measurements and provided acceptance criteria (as specified in the modification acceptance test plan). This was identified as a critical step to insure the valve would stroke fully closed to fully open. The work orders were closed even though the acceptance criteria were not satisfied for either MSIV. FPL procedures requlr,e an action request (AR) for "unexpected or unwanted conditions". The discrepant stroke length was documented, but no AR was initiated.

Change request notices (CRN) documented this. The engineering resolution to the CRNs focused on limit switch set point adjustments and limit switch mounting changes, and did not address why the changes were needed. (Later investigation determined that this was a missed opportunity to detect the problem. A more thorough engineering review may have prevented the problem.)
From July 26 through July 29, startup testing was performed, and unit 1 reached the new 100% power level on July 29, 2012.
Issue
Description:
On March 12, 2013, after 230 days on line at the new rated power level, St. Lucie Unit 1 tripped on thermal margin/low pressure (TMLP) from an asymmetric steam generator (SG) transient (275 psid between the SGs) signal (See EN 48818). After the trip, the licensee determined that, with the valve positioned to "OPEN", the valve did not pass enough flow to maintain steam header pressure. Steam header pressure could only be maintained with the MSIV bypass valve in service. The licensee cooled down to Mode 5 to inspect the MSIVs internally. Internal inspection found that the "B" MSIV had a spindle to disc separation. A similar inspection of the "A" MSIV found the disc still attached to the spindle, but the spindle itself was damaged. See Figure 2 below.

The tail link was dimensionally checked against the design requirements, and det,ermined to be oversized.
Figure 3 MSIV Tail Link With the disc not fully backseated, it remained partially exposed t,o the steam flow through the MSIV. Excessive stress was caused by the valve disc remaining partially in the flow stream. These stresses caused the shear pin for the "8" MSIV to fail (See Figure 4). When the shear pin failed, the spindle separated from the disc. System flow then uncontrollably forced the valve disc into the seat, blocking flow from the steam generator (Inlet side) to the main steam system (Outlet side).

However, instead of the shear pin failure seen on the "B" MSIV, the spindle tab had partially torn (See Figure 5). The licensee determined that, once the partial tear occurred on the spindle tab, the "A" MSIV disc fully backseated, which prevented the in-service failure.

When fully opened and backseated, the valve disc must be open at least 80 degrees with a 1/8 inch clearance to the body to account for thermal expansion. The newly installed tail link was oversized, making contact with the valve body before the seat was backseated. This caused excessive, unintended stress on the valve components, ultimately resulting in the shear pin failure on the "B" MSIV causing the disc to separate from the spindle. When the pin failed on the "B" MSIV, the valve shut uncontrollably.
The excessive stresses imposed on the valve from the uncontrolled shutting of the MSIV from 100% power required extensive engineering analysis and replacement of several internal components, including the valve seat, and some external supports. The engineering analysis determined that the valve body was acceptable for continued use.
The licensee determined that there were 2 root causes for this event:
- 1. The tail links provided by Flowserve did not meet the design specification dimensional requirements.
The contract with Flowserve required all parts be provided per detailed machine drawings. Shop inspections and dimensioning did not identify the tail link discrepancies. QA inspections by Bechtel did not OFFICIAi Pili 0*11.v ilitilillU<lii 1*1:rliRCtlALo lm7QRMMIQ*l DO *10:r 5'.0RWARQ 01¥ liXCliiRR:ri Oll+iltlli or;: CtlRC w1:rwo11:r r.lRiT 01no1*11w..

FPL QA surveillance was waived for this hold point, as allowed by FPL procedures. This cause was characterized as a personnel performance issue.
- 2. The engineering change package did not include verification that the modified valve would open fully, i.e.,
to the back seat. The EC process includes requirements to specify required implementation instructions and post maintenance testing. Although multiple engineering groups reviewed the EC, the package did not contain specific instructions to assure the valve is fully open to the backseat. This cause was characterized as a personnel performance issue.
Licensee Event Report 3352013001RO (ML13142A200) was issued by the licensee on March 12, 2013.
The licensee completed an extent of condition review and determined that no other valves were affect~d. It should be noted that the Unit 2 MSJVs are a completely different design. The Unit 2 MSIVs are 34 inch Rockwell International (Model Number PD-153115) angled valves with an internal pilot and balance chamber. Licensee discussions with Flowserve indicate that they don't believe that any other plants have had this type of modification performed.

The following insights associated with this event apply to operating reactor and new construction inspection activities:
- 1. Oversight: Adequate oversight and inspection are critical to ensuring quality. In this case, the licensee established a complex project organization to complete this design change that relied on the use of multiple vendors. The inspections performed did not ensure that the tail links provided by Flowserve met the design specification dimensional requirements, as required by Criterion X of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B. Appendix 10 of IP 35007, "Quality Assurance Program Implementation During Construction and Pre-Construction Activities", IP 71111 .18, "Plant Modifications" and section 03.10 of IP 43002, "Routine Inspections of Nuclear Vendors", provide guidance for inspecting independent oversight.
- 2. Testing: Per Criterion XI of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, verification testing must incorporate the requirements and acceptance limits contained in applicable design documents. Testing anomalies, whether at the vendor shop or in-situ, must be thoroughly investigated and dispositioned. In this case , post modification testing to verify that the MSIVs would fully open was not specified in the EC Package. In addition, the anomaly caused by the stroke length measurements not meeting the acceptance criterion defined by the work order instructions was not thoroughly investigated. I P-65001.D, "Inspection of the ITMC-Related Operational Testing Program", IMC 2513, "Light Water Reactor Inspection Program - Preoperational Testing And Operational Preparedness Phase", IP 71111.19, "Post Maintenance Testing" and IP 43002, "Routine Inspections of Nuclear Vendors", provide guidance for inspecting testing associated with construction activities and post maintenance testing for operating reactors.

Open: ML12079A224 (PIM) Failure to Perform Extent of Condition Evaluation The NRC identified a finding for failure of the licensee to follow directions of an apparent cause evaluation to perform an extent of condition evaluation. Specifically, following the identification of an inadequate temporary design modification that rendered annunciator CB 20, Panel A18, Window C3 inoperable on July 5, 2011, engineering personnel failed to perform an extent of condition evaluation to identify other annunciator windows rendered inoperable by the design modification. The failure of engineering personnel to perform an extent of condition evaluation as directed by the apparent cause evaluation for a temporary modification following identification of an unexpected condition was a performance deficiency. The finding is more than minor because the failure to adequately implement the corrective actions associated with the temporary modification s identified deficiencies affects the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective of ensuring availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding is of very low safety significance because it did not represent a loss of system safety function, did not represent the actual loss of safety function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time, and did not screen as potentially risk significant due to a seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. The finding has a crosscutting aspect in the corrective action program component of the human performance area associated with work practices because engineering personnel failed to follow direction and ensure that an extent of condition review mandated by an apparent cause evaluation was perfonned.

uynanuc Web :sate Open: ML12366Al58 (PIM) Failure to Properly Scope All the Pertinent External Flood Protection Features into the Walk.down List in Accordance with Industry Guidance NEI 12-07 The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) for the licensee s failure to generate a complete inspection list, with all the external flood protection features credited in the current licensing basis documents for flooding events, to comply with NRC endorsed NEI 12-07, Guidelines for Performing Walkdowns of Plant Flood Protection Features. These walkdowns were being performed in response to a March 12, 2012, letter from the NRC to licensees, entitled, Request for Information Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations 50.54(f) Regarding Recommendations 2.1, 2.3, and 9.3, of the Near-Term Task Force Review of Insights from the Fukushima Dai-Ichi Accident. Specifically, the scoping list did not include several active components, which are an essential part of Fort Calhoun s design basis flood mitigation strategy. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program and revised the scoping list accordingly. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it is associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Factors (Flood Hazard) and it adversely affects the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, in addition to not scoping the sluice gates into the Flooding Features Walkdown List, fourteen additional active components would not have been scoped into the walkdown list. This would have prevented the licensee from identifying that preventive maintenance tasks needed to be created, and some active components that are an essential part of the flood mitigating strategy would not have been inspected and tested. The finding was screened as very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not involve the loss or degradation of equipment or function specifically designed to mitigate a seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. The inspectors determined the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because licensee personnel did not properly apply human error prevention techniques such as peer checking and proper documentation of activities (H.4(a))

Open: ML13045B055 (PIM) Failure to Manage Functionality of the River Sluice Gates The team identified a finding for the failure to manage the functionality of the river sluice gates. Specifically, the licensee s preventive maintenance program requirements were not appropriately implemented for a period of 12 months and as a result, the functionality of the river sluice gates was improperly maintained. The team concluded that the failure to manage the functionality of the sluice gates was a performance deficiency that warranted further evaluation. Specifically, the licensee s preventive maintenance program requirements were not appropriately implemented for a period of 12 months and as a result, the functionality of the sluice gates was improperly maintained. The examples supporting this perfonnance deficiency are as follows: 1) Failure to perform preventive maintenance and monthly testing on the river sluice gates for four months 2) Failure to perform monthly testing on two sluice gates on September 2012 3) Failure to perform monthly testing on all the sluice gates on October 2012 4)
Failure to properly identify and timely enter conditions adverse to quality into the Corrective Action Program 5)
FaiJure to demonstrate effective control of performance of the river sluice gates and to place the system in a monitoring program 6) Failure to make appropriate functionality assessment when the river sluice gates failed the monthly testing during August 2012 The licensee entered these issues into their corrective action program under numerous condition reports described in the body of this report. Using the guidance in IMC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening, the inspectors determined this finding affected the Mitigating Systems cornerstone. The finding is greater than minor because it is associated with both of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attributes of Equipment Performance and Protection Against External Factors and, it adversely affects the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to hutiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors determined that the fmding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, and conducted a Phase l characterization and initial screening. Using Phase 1 Table 3, SDP Appendix Router, the inspectors answered httn://cio9.nrc.itnv/nrr-nflice/ms/<lvn/mn irl .cfmf06/ 17/20 I:'i 4:10: 17 PMl
