,
Railge lon Catawba. Unit ?.
Following opening remarks by M. Ernst, NRC RII Deputy Regional Administrato DPC gave a presentation (Enclosure 4) on the RVLIS inoperability. T. B. Owen, Catawba Station Manager, introduced DPCs presentation by stating that Duke had identified the RVLIS problem, reported it promptly to the NRC, and that contrary to1what was stated in a courtesy Licensee Event Report submitted
  = June 26, 1989, the RVLIS Technical Specification had beeri violated. He also
  ~ stated that DPC felt the root cause of the problem was the failure of the Catawba . supervisor to use qualified personnel in the task of restoring RVLIS and that a contributing factor had been the poor direction and guidance given in N/A'ing procedure steps. The presentation that followed covered a system
  ' description, sequence ~of events, root cause/ corrective actions, safety significance, summary and concluding remark A significant number of NRC questions and discussion during the conference were centered ' around the supervisory error, qualifications of maintenance and supervisory. personnel, how the error of assigning an unqualified maintenance worker to the job occurred, and the adequacy ~of the post maintenance test perforn.e Duke ended the meeting by giving their corrective actions and stating their conclusions. - Duke . reiterated that they had identified the inoperability, immediately taken corrective actions, communicated the situation promptly to the NRC, and issued a courtesy LER before all the facts were fully known. They also stated that they believed the contributing factors to this event were'not recurring. That is the surveillance problems resulting from N/A'ing procedural
      -
steps, assignment of unqualified personnel to tasks requiring qualifications, and performance of post-maintenance testing by unqualified personne Also, with-regard to safety significance, Duke felt the safety ramifications of this event were not significan The URC closed the meeting by stating that it had served to enhance Region II's understanding of the issues and DPC's corrective actions.

    * Attended exit intervie . Brief Summary of Event On June 16, 1989 the licensee was performing a routine monthly walkdown of the Unit 2 Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation System (RVLIS). The unit was at ~ 100% power at the time. Technicians immediately recognized a problem when the Upper Range level on both channels indicated greater than j 90% instead of the expected value of less than 60% for the existing plant '
      -
conditions. The technicians discovered the isolation valves for the upper range pressure transmitters to be closed on both channels rendering them inoperable. The RVLIS channels were required to be operable when the unit entered mode 3 on June 2, 198 q System Description The Reactor Vessel Level Instrumentation System (RVLIS) is a standard Westinghouse design for Upper Head Injection (UHI) reactors and uses differential pressure (dp) transmitters to measure reactor vessel level or relative void content of the Reactor Coolant (NC) System. RVLIS includes .j two redundant QA Condition 1 channels powered frora Class 1E busses. Each i channel consists of three dp transmitters and associated equipment to measure the pressure differential from the bottom of the reactor vessel to-the top of the reactor vessel. The transmitters correspond to three ranges of indication to cover operation under various cor.binations of forced or natcral circulation. The ranges are termed dynamic head, lower range and upper rang '

The dynamic head senses dp between the vessel bottom and the hot leg and provides indication on a display in the control room of 0-120% dp and is used when reactor coolant pumps are operating. The lower range also senses dp' between the vessel bottom and the ' hot leg and provides indication, from 0-70% vessel level and would be used during natural    j circulation. .The upper range senses dp between the hot leg and the top of the vessel and provides indication from 60-120% vessel level and would also be used during natural. circulatio ,
.
During periods when reactor coolant pumps are operating, the upper and lower ranges indicate o.ff ' scale and invalid in the control room. If    i reactor- coolant pumps are not running the dynamic head will indicate invali The equipment associated with each transmitter includes impulse tubing, temperature - detectors, in-containment sensor   bellows units, out-of-containment hydraulic isolators and the necessary electronic processing and display instrumentatio The sensor bellows is provided with two in line instrument root valves located inside containment. The dp transmitters have Magnex isolation valves located outside containmen 'The Magnex valve is a packless ball valve, hermetically sealed to eliminate the possibility of stem leakage.

pump seal leakoff on NC pump 2D indicated a problem with the number one seal and the licensee was forced to return the unit to mode 5, drain the NC system and repair the seal. In order to vent the reactor vessel head it was decided to disconnect.the RVLIS tubing from 2NC279, RVLIS Isolation Valve, on the head and use that valve as a vent. Work Request 5345 SWR was generated to isolate RVLIS using portions of IP/2/A/3122/0 .

RVLIS system and closing the work request. Using the same procedure which had been tailored for the specific job by N/Aing non-applicable steps, the technicians reconnected the tubing and opened the sensor bellows isolation valves. The technicians, however, failed to open the Magnex isolation valves. Later on May 28, the post maintenance test was performed which consisted of only visual inspection of the tubing for leaks. A verifica-tion of RVLIS operability was not performe On June 1 in preparation for Mode 3, operations personnel completed !

PT/2/A/4600/03A, Monthly Surveillance Items. Included as Step 18 on enclosure 13.4 is the monthly channel check on the RVLIS channels required by Technical Specification 4.3.3.6. The acceptance criteria requires "two operable channels reading within +/- 3% of the expected value for existing i pump combination and reactor power level (refer to Unit 2 Data Book)." It should be noted that with the reactor coolant pumps on only the dynamic range of RVLIS provides a valid indication in the control room. The surveillance was performed and no discrepancies were note On June 2 at 12:43 a.m. Unit 2 entered mode 3 at which time Technical Specification 3.3.3.6 required both channels and a minimum of I channel of RVLIS to be operable. While both channels' lower range and dynamic head were operable, both channels of upper range were inoperable since the associated Magnex valves were isolated. The unit subsequently entered mode 1 and increa, sed power to 100%.

Magnex valves .were closed and informed appropriate personnel. At 11:30 a.m. both channels of RVLIS were declared inoperable by the Shift Supervisor and the unit was placed in the 48 hour action statement of TS 3.3.3.6. The Shift Supervisor directed the IAE technicians to return the channels to an operable status. The Magnex valve for channel B was opened and the channel was declared operable at 1:00 p.m.. However, due to the pressure differential across the ball valve, Channel A Magnex Valve was stuck closed. After consulting with Westinghouse a special procedure was used and the Channel A valve was opened and declared operable at 5:08 ,

The licensee inspected the Magnex valves on Unit I and verified them to be ope . Use of Non Qualified Technicians It was determined that the technicians assigned to restore the RVLIS system on May 28, were not qualified under the licensee's Employee Training and Qualifications System (ETQS) program to perform work on that syste CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, requires that the licensee provide training of personnel performing activities affecting quality as necessary to assure suitable proficiency is achieved and ' maintained. Duke Power Company Topical Report Quality Assurance Program, sections 17. and 17.2.2 state that the qualifications of personnel are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.8. Personnel Selection and Training. Regulatory Guide 1.8 incorporates ANSI N18.1-1971 which requires a training program for maintenance personnel. The training program shall be such that fully trained and qualified personnel are available at the times required and shall be to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the plant. The licensee's ETQS program is established to meet this and other industry requirements. The program is such that once employees are qualified to tasks, they may perform related procedures without direct supervisio Task qualification is an independent evaluation of an employee's ability to perform all elements of a task. The qualification process utilizes  j Training and Qualification Guides (T&Q) for establishing the prerequisites

Since these two steps were required to adequately restore the system and the requirement to perform the steps had effectively been N/A'd, concluded that the procedure was inadequate and is identified asitanis apparent violation of Technical Specification 6. On May 28, the non qualified technicians attempted to restore the syste Having received instructions over the telephone they reconnected the tubing and opened the sensor bellows isolation valve The technicians apparently thought that step 10.9.9, requiring the Magnex valves to be opened, was not applicable due to the appearance that the step had been N/A'd. Under the " action taken" portion of the work request, they documented that they had " opened Magnex valves for 2NC6420 and 2NC6390". In fact they had only opened the sensor bellows valves and not the Magnex Valves. In summary it is hypothesized that this event probably occurred due to a combination of the following: The IAE technicians restoring the system vere not qualified on RVLIS and were not familiar with terms used in the procedure, The procedure as issued was inadequate in that:

A functional verification is defined as one which demonstrates that a component will operate as designed. The licensee's policy is that an independent verification such as a valve lineup is an acceptable functional verification if it is reasonable to expect the system will be restored to an operable status. The maintenance activity itself, however, l must not be expected to degrade the system. In the case where an instrument is valved out and impulse lines disconnected, various scenarios (
  . .
can be postulated such as crimp?d tubing, foreign material, inadequate fill and vent, etc. which would invalidate this type of functional verificatio Section 4.9.10 of MMP 1.0 provides guidance for performing functional !

The Technical Specification bases for accident monitoring instrumentation states: The OPERABILITY of the accident monitoring instrumentation ensures that sufficient information is available on selected plant parameters to monitor and assess these variables- following an acciden This capability is consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.97, Revision 3, " Instrumentation for Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants to Assecs Plant Conditions During and Following an Accident," May 1983 and NUREG 0737, " Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements,"
_
November 198 The RVLIS requirements stem from NUREG 0737 Item II.F.2, Instrumentation For Detection of Inadequate Core Cooling which states: The indication of ICC must be unambiguous in that it should have the following properties: It must indicate the existence of inadequate core cooling caused by various phenomena (i.e., high-void fraction pumped flow as well as stagnant boil-off); and, It must not erroneously indicate ICC because of the presence of an unrelated phenomeno The indication must give advanced warning of the approach of ICC. The indication must cover the full range from normal operations to complete core uncovery. For example, water-level instrumentation may be chosen to provide advanced warning of two phase level drop to the top of the core and could be supplemented by other indicators such as incore and core-exit thermocouple provided that the indicated temperatures can be correlated to provide indication of the existence of ICC and to infer the extent of core uncovery. Alternatively, full-range level instrumentation to the bottom of the core may be employed in conjunction with other diverse indicators such as core-exit thermocouple to preclude misinterpretation due to any inherent deficiencies or inaccuracies in the measurement system selecte Generic Letter 83-37, NUREG 0737 Technical Specifications, required the RVLIS system to be included in Technical Specifications and that the   l system be used to provide indication of the approach to, the existence of,    !

The above referenced NSM's will modify the VP System controls such that all isolation val-ves can be electrically sealed closed during Modes 1 through 4 without the use of a TSM to remove power. The modification also provides for a time delay bypass of the high relative humidity isolation and trip function during startup of the VP Syste The functional that will be conducted as part ofimplementation procedures TNIA10450001A & 02A, and TN2A04320001A & 02A fully demonstrate the adequacy of the NSM to meet its intended purpose. The ability of the time delay relay to allow start of VP with a simulated high humidity for the required time intervalis tested along with the ability to start without a high humidity. In addition the new " BLOCK /CLOSE" function is verified to isolate all VP valves when placed in the required position. As an added as-surance that the required safety function of the affected circuits is not adversely altered, al-though the functional does test all such circuits, Performance will conduct IrTI(2)A420041C upon completion of the modi 5 cation prior to return to service. This is re-quired by the applicable TN Therefore, the proposed NSM implementation plan including functional and retests as out-lined above fully challenge the modification to function in both normal and design basis condition C

Since the upper and lower ranges indicate invalid'and off scale low in the control room with reactor coolant pumps on, channel checks on these are not performe A channel check is defined in Teche bei Specifications as the qualitative assessment of channel behavior during operation by observation. This is not being performed on the upper and lower ranges of RVLIS. This is identified as an apparent violation of TS 4.3. . Safety Significance In this event both channels of upper range RVLIS were isolated from June 2,1989 to June 16, 1989 while the reactor was operated in modes 1, 2, and '.

As the NC system is cooled to 200 F, the upper head temperature will lag and a sufficient period of time. must be allowed for the upper.-
head to cool below' 200 F. Upper Range RVLIS must ~ be used as an indication during depressurization of when to stop cooldown and allow 4 further upper head cooling since there is no direct temperature !
indication in this region, EP/2/A/5000/1C1, Safety Injection Termination Following High Energy Line Break, and. EP/2/A/5000/1C2, Post LOCA Cooldown and Depressuri-zation, also have similar steps to check Upper Range RVLIS >97% as a condition for starting reactor coolant pumps or exiting the procedure

      (if. <97%) to enter.EP/2/A/5000/2F3, Void in Reactor Vesse In the event of certain accidents with reactor coolant pumps off (Natural circulation cooldown, small to medium break LOCA, excessive cooldowns) and upper range RVLIS isolated, the coritrol room display would have erroneously indicated Channels A and B RVLIS at 94% and 99% respectively, regardless of actual level. Operators using the EPs would not have had adequate instrumentation available to detect a void in the head and to monitor the approach to inadequate core cooling. .The criteria, as set forth in several steps. of the EP's, for satisfying that no voids exist, is upper range RVLIS at greater than 97%. Assuming ' a single channel failure, operators would have been deceived into believing that no voids existed. This would have led to inadequate corrective actions to collapse the void or to premature restart of forced circulation and a subsequent loss of subcooling. The expected response for come actions in turn would not have been achievable. At the very least the above discussed inadequacies would have confused the operators and hampered accident recovery. Hact the inoperability been detected the ability to restore the instrumentation to service is questionable weighing the difficulty encountered by the licensee in opening the Magnex valve on June 1 ,

INTRASTATION LETTER CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION TO: T. B. Owen SUBJECT: Catawba Nuclear St:. tion

. NSM CN-11045, Rev. 0 & NSM CN-20432, Rev. O Keywords: NSM Retest I

The above referenced NSM's will modify the VP System controls such that all isolation val-ves can be electrically sealed closed during Modes 1 through 4 without the use of a TSM to remove power. The modification also provides for a time delay bypass of the high relative humidity isolation and trip function during startup of the VP Syste The functional that will be conducted as part ofimplementation procedures TNIA10450001A & 02A, and TN2A04320001A & 02A fully demonstrate the adequacy of the NSM to meet its intended purpose. The ability of the time delay relay to allow start of VP with a simulated high humidity for the required time intervalis tested along with the ability to start without a high humidity. In addition the new " BLOCK /CLOSE" function is verified to isolate all VP valves when placed in the required position. As an added as-surance that the required safety function of the affected circuits is not adversely altered, al-though the functional does test all such circuits, Performance will conduct IrTI(2)A420041C upon completion of the modi 5 cation prior to return to service. This is re-quired by the applicable TN Therefore, the proposed NSM implementation plan including functional and retests as out-lined above fully challenge the modification to function in both normal and design basis condition C

  • Design. Intent - Definition
  • Scope
  • Each modification is to have its design intent fully challenged to ensure that the modifica-tion performs as intended by design and that the modification was properly installed
  • System Expert Responsibilities

  • Impact to Station Operation
  • Cost of Performing Test Deviation Documentation
  • Any deviation from performing the most conservative testing to verify Design Basis or design intent is to be documented in the Post Modification Testing Sum-mary Letter to Station Man'agement

  • Focused Responsibility - System Expert is now responsible for approval of Post Modification Test-ing Program for each modification
  • FSAR Chapter 15 Design Basis will be verified intact after modification if work performed could have af-fected them
  • No Credit taken for Installation Verifications
  • All modifications will be verified to have met design intent and that the system is functionally operable after the modification l

Previous Philosophy

  • Tests to ensure Design Basis intact were required to ,

be conducted only if Design B' asis changed

  • Took credit for installation verifications toward sys- l tem operability
  • Testing Criteria to ensure system operationally func-tional was not clearly defined beyond code testing l
