The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. The enclosed inspection report documents one self-revealing finding of very low safety significance which did not involve a violation of NRC requirements.Also, enclosed for your information are two synopses of NRC Office of Investigations' (OI)completed reports. The first regarded failure to comply with radiation protection procedures. OI determined that there was insufficient evidence to substantiate the allegation that a contract worker willfully failed to comply with the applicable radiation protection procedure while exiting the Radiation Controlled Area with hand carried items. The second regarded a Hatch Nuclear Plant employee assisting workers with taking General Employee Training (GET) tests. OI could not substantiate that an employee assisted workers taking the GET tests. We plan no further action with regard to these matters. | The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

12Enclosure 1.3Semi-Annual Trend Reviewa.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors performed a review of the licensee's Corrective Action Program andassociated documents to identify trends which could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The review was focused on repetitive equipment issues, but also considered the results of inspector daily CR screening, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human performance results. The review nominally considered the six month period of July 2007 through December 2007 although some examples extended beyond those dates when the scope of the trend warranted. The inspectors also reviewed several CRs associated with operability determinations which occurred during the period. The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensees two latest Integrated Performance Assessments (IPAs). | 12Enclosure 1.3Semi-Annual Trend Reviewa.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors performed a review of the licensee's Corrective Action Program andassociated documents to identify trends which could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue.

SUBJECT: EDWIN I. HATCH NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTIONREPORT 05000321/2007005, 05000366/2007005 AND RELEASE OF OFFICE OF INVESTIGATION SYNOPSIS
Dear Mr. Madison:
On December 31, 2007, U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspectionat your Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on January 22, 2008, with yourself and other members of your staff.The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety andcompliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. The enclosed inspection report documents one self-revealing finding of very low safety significance which did not involve a violation of NRC requirements.Also, enclosed for your information are two synopses of NRC Office of Investigations' (OI)completed reports. The first regarded failure to comply with radiation protection procedures. OI determined that there was insufficient evidence to substantiate the allegation that a contract worker willfully failed to comply with the applicable radiation protection procedure while exiting the Radiation Controlled Area with hand carried items. The second regarded a Hatch Nuclear Plant employee assisting workers with taking General Employee Training (GET) tests. OI could not substantiate that an employee assisted workers taking the GET tests. We plan no further action with regard to these matters.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000321/2007-005, 05000366/2007-005; 10/1/2007-12/31/2007; Edwin I. HatchNuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, Event FollowupThe report covered a three-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and oneDRS inspector. One Green finding was identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP). Findings for which the SDP does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after management review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process.A.
NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
- Green.
A Green self-revealing finding was identified for the licensee's failure to followproper work practices during construction of two test leads in accordance with skill of the craft training. The failure of the test leads resulted in an abrupt speed decrease in the Unit 2 'B' Recirculation Pump and a reactor power reduction.The inspectors determined that a performance deficiency existed because workpractices were not followed in accordance with skill-of-the-craft training. This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Event Cornerstone and affected the objective in that it resulted in a rapid 2B recirculation pump speed reduction and reactor power transient. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because there were no complications associated with this transient and all mitigation systems remained available. The inspectors did not identify a specific cross-cutting aspect associated with this issue.
(Section 4OA3)
B.Licensee-Identified Violations

REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant StatusUnit 1 operated at or near 100% RTP for the inspection period.Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100% RTP. On October 26, a reduction to 62%RTP occurred while removing test equipment from the 2B Recirc MG set. Power was restored to 100% RTP on October 27. The unit operated at or near 100% RTP for the remainder of the inspection period.1.REACTOR SAFETYCornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity1R01Adverse Weathera.Inspection ScopeSeasonal Readiness Review. The inspectors performed a seasonal review of licenseecold weather preparations. The inspectors reviewed licensee procedure DI-OPS-36-0989, Cold Weather Checks, and walked down the completed portions of the procedure.
In addition, the inspectors reviewed the Technical Specifications (TS), Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and drawings H-13395, H-23395 and H-12613 to verify the following three systems would remain operable during cold weather.*Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG)*Plant Service Water System at Intake Structure
- Fire Protection Systemb.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.
1R05 Fire Protectiona.Inspection ScopeFire Area Tours.
The inspectors toured the following 12 risk significant plant areas toassess the material condition of the fire protection and detection equipment, verify fire protection equipment was not obstructed and that transient combustibles were properly controlled. The inspectors reviewed the Fire Hazards Analysis drawings H-11846 and H-11847 to verify that the necessary fire fighting equipment, such as fire extinguishers, hose stations, ladders, and communications equipment, were in place. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.*Unit 2 Standby Gas and HVAC Rooms RB 185'*Unit 2 Working Floor and Stack Monitoring Rooms RB 203'

- Unit 1 EDG Area 130'
- Unit 1 Switchgear Rooms DG 130'b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.
1R07 Heat Sink Performancea.Inspection ScopeBiennial Heat Sink Performance.
The inspectors reviewed inspection records, testresults, and other documentation to ensure that heat exchanger (HX) deficiencies that could mask or degrade performance were identified and corrected. The test procedures and records were also reviewed to verify that these were consistent with Generic Letter 89 -13 licensee commitments, and industry guidelines. Risk significant HXs reviewed included the EDG HXs and Safeguard Equipment Area Room, the B/D Residual Heat Removal (RHR) & Core Spray Pump Area, the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI),
and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling room coolers. In addition, the inspectors also performed a walkdown of the intake channel and discharge outlet structures for the cooling water inlet and outlet to assess general material condition and to identify any degraded conditions of the structures.

11Enclosure 14OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems.1Daily Screening of Corrective Action ItemsAs required by Inspection Procedure 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems,and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the licensee's corrective action program. This review was accomplished by either attending daily screening meetings that briefly discussed major CRs, or accessing the licensee's computerized corrective action database and reviewing each CR that was initiated..2Annual Sample Reviewa.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors performed a detailed review of the following CR and Operator WorkArounds (OWA) to verify the full extent of the issues were identified, an appropriate evaluation was performed, and appropriate corrective actions were specified and prioritized. The inspectors evaluated the CR against the licensee's corrective action program as delineated in licensee procedure NMP-GM-002, Corrective Action Program, and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.*2007107640, Continuous operation of three RBCCW Pumps *Operations Work Arounds, Burdens, and Needs list dated November 11, 2007b.Findings and ObservationsNo findings of significance were identified. The inspectors had the followingobservations:*The inspectors determined the disposition of CR 2007107640 was narrowly focusedon developing a section in the operating procedure to allow continuous operation of three RBCCW pumps. The inspectors identified additional weaknesses in the operators use of procedures and decision making.
Following questioning by the inspectors, the licensee took action to brief the operating crews on procedural usage and decision making expectations.*The inspectors evaluated the cumulative impact of the OWAs identified as ofNovember 11, 2007. They included recirc MG set step speed changes, load reductions required due to elevated condensate temperatures during the summer, and 1A RHR pump vibration when operating in certain flow values.
The inspectors determined the licensees compensatory measures and corrective action plans were adequate.
12Enclosure 1.3Semi-Annual Trend Reviewa.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors performed a review of the licensee's Corrective Action Program andassociated documents to identify trends which could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The review was focused on repetitive equipment issues, but also considered the results of inspector daily CR screening, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human performance results. The review nominally considered the six month period of July 2007 through December 2007 although some examples extended beyond those dates when the scope of the trend warranted. The inspectors also reviewed several CRs associated with operability determinations which occurred during the period. The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensees two latest Integrated Performance Assessments (IPAs).
Corrective actions associated with a sample of the issues identified in the licensee's trend reports were reviewed for adequacy. The inspectors also evaluated the trend reports against the requirements of the licensee's corrective action program as specified in licensee procedure NMP-GM-002, Corrective Action Program, and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment.b.Assessment and ObservationsNo findings of significance were identified. The inspectors compared the licensee IPAwith the results of the inspectors' daily screening and did not identify any discrepancies or potential trends in the data that the licensee had failed to identify.4OA3Event Followupa.Inspection ScopeOn October 26, a rapid speed reduction of the 2B Recirculation Pump caused reactorpower to decrease from 100% to 62%. The speed reduction occurred while workers where preparing to remove data recorders connected to the scoop tube positioner circuit. Reactor power momentarily traversed into the "Immediate Exit" region of the Power/Flow Map as expected, and operators manually reduced power to the "Analyzed Region" of the Power/Flow Map. Power was later restored in a controlled manner to
100%.As part of the follow up to this event, the inspectors reviewed operator logs, plantcomputer data, and strip charts to determine what occurred and how the operators responded, and to determine if the response was in accordance with plant procedures.
Additionally, the inspectors attended the human performance board meeting and discussed the event with operations and maintenance to gain an understanding of the event and assess information leading up to the transient. The inspectors later reviewed the root cause determination to assess the detail of review and adequacy of the root cause and proposed corrective actions. The documents reviewed are listed in the
.
13Enclosure 1b.FindingsIntroduction: A Green self-revealing finding was identified for the licensee's failure tofollow proper work practices during construction of two test leads in accordance with skill of the craft training. The failure of the test leads resulted in an abrupt speed decrease in the Unit 2 'B' Recirculation Pump and a reactor power reduction.Description: The 2B recirculation pump experienced a rapid speed decrease duringremoval of test leads associated with the scoop tube positioner data recorder. When a technician was removing tape from the test leads, two test leads were inadvertently pulled from the data recorder due to improperly crimped lugs that attached the test leads to the recorder. The other end of the test leads remained connected to the scoop tube positioner terminal board. This condition resulted in the test leads shorting which caused a reduction in the positioner input signal. The scoop tube changed position to match the reduced input signal which caused a rapid speed reduction of the 2B recirculation pump from 96% to approximately 38%. Subsequently, a reactor power reduction to 62% occurred which coincided with the 'Immediate Exit' region of the power/flow map. Operators entered the appropriate annunciator response procedure and initiated action to further reduce reactor power to exit the 'Immediate Exit' region.
After stabilizing reactor power and the recirculation loop flows were matched, power was restored to 100%.Analysis: The inspectors determined that a performance deficiency existed becausework practices were not followed in accordance with skill-of-the-craft training. This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Event Cornerstone and affected the objective in that it resulted in a rapid 2B recirculation pump speed reduction and reactor power transient. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because there were no complications associated with this transient and all mitigation systems remained available. The inspectors did not identify an applicable cross-cutting aspect.
Enforcement:
Enforcement action does not apply because the performance deficiencydid not involve a violation of a regulatory requirement. This finding is identified as FIN 05000366/2007005-01, Improper Test Lead Construction Results in Plant Transient.4OA5Other.1Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI)a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors reviewed selected ISFSI operations to verify that the licensee performedISFSI activities safely and in compliance with approved procedures. The inspectors reviewed records to verify that the licensee had properly identified the parameters of each fuel assembly loaded, and that a physical inventory had been performed on all spent fuel in the ISFSI on a frequency of at least every 12 months.
