)WATTS BAR NUCLEAR PLANT (WBN) -UNIT 2 -REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR THE COMPLETION OF CONSTRUCTION AND LICENSING ACTIVITIES FOR UNIT-2 This letter describes the regulatory framework for the completion of construction and licensing activities for Watts Bar Nuclear Plant (WBN) Unit 2 as committed in TVA's August 3, 2007, letter to the NRC, "Reactivation of Construction Activities" (Reference 1).In addition, responses are provided to address informational needs requested in NRC's letter of October 23, 2007 (Reference 2).The regulatory framework for WBN Unit 2 was developed based on key assumptions provided in TVA's letter of April 3, 2007, (Reference
- 3) and NRC staff requirements memorandum SECY-07-0096 (Reference
- 4) that concluded:
- 1. The current licensing basis for Unit 1 will be used as the reference basis for the review and licensing of Unit 2.2. Activities that have not been completed on Unit 2 will be completed in the same manner as Unit 1. In the event an activity cannot be completed in the same manner as Unit 1, the alternate approach will be provided to the NRC for review and approval.3. Significant changes to this licensing approach by NRC Staff would be allowed where the existing backfit rule would be met or as necessary to support dual unit operation.
iu &
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 January 29, 2008 Using the assumptions above, TVA determined the scopeof WBN Unit 2 licensing activities, identified those activities requiring an alternate approach, and developed a closure process for those activities considered as "implementation only" actions (e.g., approach approved, but modification, procedure or some other action is required to close).Given that a significant amount of the Unit 2 licensing basis had been reviewed and approved concurrent with the Unit 1 operating license process, a comparison was conducted of the NRC Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants (SRP) NUREG-0800 (Revision 2, July 1981) and the Safety Evaluation Report (SER) and its Supplements related to the operation of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2 (NUREG-0847) in order to identify whether the sections had or had not been approved for Unit 2. Once the initial comparison process was completed, a review was conducted to determine whether the outcome remains valid under current circumstances and/or assumptions, and whether the reviewed section has been affected by generic communications.
The process was presented to NRC at a meeting on December 12, 2007. The following provides four practical results of the comparison and review process: 1. The Unit 2 licensing basis has been reviewed and approved and remains valid with no further action required.2. The Unit 2 licensing basis was previously approved; however, it is no longer current.An update is necessary requiring NRC review and approval.3. The Unit 2 licensing basis has not been approved or has been affected by generic communication, and the methodology used to resolve the issue on Unit 1 will be implemented.
It is recommended that items in this category be approved consistent with the Unit 1 licensing basis with verification that implementation actions are complete.4. The Unit 2 licensing basis has not been approved, or an action different than Unit 1 will be implemented, or the Unit 1 license basis has been modified in accordance with the 10 CFR 50.59 process. Items in this category require NRC review and approval.To present the results of TVA's review of the WBN Unit 2 licensing basis, a series of tables (Tables 1 -3) were developed.
The four results described above were applied as appropriate to each of the tables. A brief description of these tables is provided below:* Table 1 -Standard Review Plan/Safety Evaluation Report and Supplements (NUREG 0847) Review Matrix This table provides the previously described comparison of the Standard Review Plan to the Watts Bar Safety Evaluation Report and Supplements.
TVA documented the results of the evaluation of Generic Communications in References 5 and 6. Open Generic Communications from that review that align with the Standard Review Plan/Safety Evaluation Sections are discussed in the applicable section of Table 1.
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 3 January 29, 2008* Table 2 -Other Generic Communications Affecting WBN Unit 2 License Basis This table captures the generic communications from the review that did not align with the standard review plan sections detailed in Table 1.* Table 3 -Corrective Action Programs and Special Programs Table 3 provides a description of the Watts Bar Nuclear Performance Plan (NPP)(Reference
- 7) Corrective Action Programs (CAPs) and Special Programs (SPs) and a summary of their proposed resolution for Unit 2. TVA evaluated these CAPs and SPs and determined that, with two exceptions, they will be resolved using the methodology employed for Unit 1.At the request of your Staff, three additional tables (4-6) have been developed and sorted by the results of TVA's review. Table 4 contains those items requiring no further action, Table 5 contains the items recommended for implementation action review, and Table 6 contains items requiring NRC review and approval.In Reference 2, the NRC Staff requested information to facilitate the reconstitution of the Unit 2 licensing basis. Enclosure 1 to this letter provides a response to each of the four items requested.
In cases where information is not available at this time, a response date is provided.
Enclosure 2 to this letter provides a summary of these dates as well as commitments associated with the actions outlined in Tables 1, 2, and 3.New generic communications issued during the completion of construction and licensing activities for Unit 2 (e.g., Generic Letter 2008-01) will be responded to in accordance with the schedule requirement for the individual generic communication.
This will allow consideration of both WBN units and aligns the licensing and design basis of the units to the fullest extent practicable.
During the review and development of Table 1, potential impacts to the Security and Emergency Plans were evaluated.
It was determined that selected security boundaries may be altered during construction of Unit 2; however, these modifications would not result in a change to the Security Plan. At this time, it was also determined that the Emergency Plan was not affected.
Future considerations are addressed under Unit 1's operating license, and are not discussed further in the regulatory framework.
Should TVA determine, based on further review or other emerging issues, that a different approach or additional action is appropriate, TVA will submit such changes to the NRC for review and concurrence.
TVA will also provide periodic updates to the regulatory framework tables as actions are completed.

S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Region II Sam Nunn Atlanta Federal Center 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Suite 23T85 Atlanta, Georgia 30303-8931 NRC Resident Inspector Unit 2 Watts Bar Nuclear Plant 1260 Nuclear Plant Road Spring City, Tennessee 37381 Enclosure 1 TVA Response to NRC's Request of Information Needed for Licensing Review Reconstitution In NRC's Letter entitled "Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2 -Information Needed for Licensing Review Reconstitution" (Reference 2), the following information was requested of TVA. In response, either an answer to the question or a date that TVA plans to submit an answer is provided.1. In its August 3, 2007, letter, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) stated that it plans to provide a "red-line" version of the WBN Unit I Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), documenting differences between the current FSAR and the FSAR in place at the time the Unit 1 operating license was issued. This submittal will assist the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff in fulfilling the Commission's direction to use the Unit I current licensing basis as the reference basis for Unit 2. To fully implement the Commission's direction, please ensure your submittal addresses the following topics: a. Describe the differences between WBN Units I and 2 expected at the time Unit 2 licensing is anticipated.
For example, does TVA plan to request that Unit 2 be licensed at the power level currently described in its operating license application 3411 megawatts thermal (MWt)or at the current Unit I licensed power level (3459 MWt) ?b. Describe the process for evaluation of WBN Unit I modifications to be implemented on Unit 2 to identify whether a previous NRC safety evaluation will need to be revised. Existing licensing reviews for WBN Unit 2 contained in NUREG-0847, and its supplements, are for plant configurations as described in various revisions of the operating license application FSAR. It is the NRC's understanding that TVA has completed modifications to WBN Unit I that it intends to implement on Unit 2, as well. If these modifications affect the configuration described in previous NRC safety evaluations, those evaluations may need to be revised to reflect the plant configuration as it will be completed.
- c. Describe how TVA will ensure that engineering and Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50.59 evaluations for WBN Unit I modifications implemented since initial licensing will remain valid when WBN Unit 2 begins operations.
- d. Describe changes to the W..BN Unit I licensing basis that will be required to accommodate multi-unit operations Ado'. dscribe how TVA will demonstrate that the existing WBN Unit I configuration is applirable to Unit 2 for multi-unit operations.
Response TVA plans to submit a "red-line" Final Safety Analysis Report on or before February 8, 2008. A response to each of the questions above will be provided in the submittal.
- 2. Operation of WBN Unit 2 will rely on common systems and structures that have already been in use supporting Unit I full-power operation since 1996. Based on the expected completion of WBN Unit 2 in 2012 and issuance of a 40-year operating license, these common systems and structures will be required to perform their intended functions well beyond the original term of the Unit I operating license. Additionally, Unit 2 components and structures already installed may have experienced degradation during the period of time construction was suspended.
Therefore, TVA should describe how it will ensure these common and previously-constructed systems, structures, and components will be capable of performing their intended functions for the entire license term expected for WBN Unit 2.
Response The common systems and structures that have already been in use supporting Unit 1 full-power operation will be subjected to an aging management review in accordance with 1OCFR54. This review will be completed prior to Unit l's license expiration date.Previously constructed systems and structures will be inspected and tested prior to turnover to plant operations.
Any system, structure or component determined not to meet acceptance criteria will be repaired or replaced prior to system testing and turnover.3. TVA has indicated that it intends to apply Nuclear Performance Plan (NPP) corrective action and special programs used for WBN Unit I to WBN Unit 2. The staff notes that the NRC has not issued a safety evaluation for these programs for WBN Unit 2. Therefore, TVA should confirm that previous NPP submittals for WBN Unit I are also applicable to Unit 2. TVA should identify if there are any cases where TVA wishes to revise a corrective action or special program for use on WBN Unit 2, along with a schedule for submitting justification for the revision to NRC for its review.Response See Table 3 of the regulatory framework letter.4. Please identify submittal dates for the following items: a. Application for extension of the WBN Unit 2 construction permit Response TVA plans to submit an application for extension of the WBN Unit 2 construction permit on or before March 21, 2008.b. Items given in Attachment 6 of the August 3, 2007, letter, if no date was provided.Response The following status is provided for the items listed on Attachment 6.i. TVA will provide a regulatory framework submittal for WBN Unit 2 completion by January 31, 2008. Complete ii. TVA plans to provide a red-ine version of the WBN Unit 1 FSAR early in the project.The schedule for submitting this markup FSAR will be provided in the regulatory framework document.
As noted previously, TVA plans to submit the "red-line" FSAR on or before February 8, 2008.iii. Subsequent to the initial submittal, TVA intends to provide updates, as appropriate, to the regulatory framework submittal until the WBN Unit 2 commitments related to fuel load, startup and power operation are complete.
On-going iv. The WBN Unit 2 Pre-service Inspection (PSI) Program was last submitted to NRC on April 30, 1990. TVA will provide a revised program for NRC approval.
TVA plans to submit the pre-service inspection program on or before October 30, 2008. TVA plans to submit PSI related relief requests on or before September 24, 2010.E1-2
TVA plans to submit the Pressure Temperature Limits Report with the license application update on or before March 26, 2010.c. Topics that TVA has already identified as requiring NRC review to complete WBN Unit 2 licensing.
Response TVA plans to submit the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement "Completion and Operation of Watts Bar Nuclear Plant Unit 2" on or before February 22, 2008.TVA plans to submit a response to Generic Letter 2008-01, "Managing Gas Accumulation in Emergency Core Cooling, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems," on or before October 10, 2008.TVA plans to submit a waiver request to allow operators to hold a combined operating license for WBN Unit 1 and Unit 2 on or before October 23, 2009.TVA plans to submit a WBN Unit 2 license application update including the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Technical Specifications, and Technical Requirements Manual on or before March 26, 2010.Additional items known to require NRC review have been identified in the tables of the regulatory framework letter and this enclosure.
At this time, no other items have been identified.
If TVA determines, based on new information or emerging issues, that additional review action is required, TVA will notify NRC at the earliest opportunity.

Silicone Rubber Insulated Cables Hi-pot testing of silicone rubber insulated cables manufactured by American Insulated Wire (AIW), Rockbestos, and Anaconda revealed a significant number of failures in AIW cables. TVA decided to replace all AIW cables.Rockbestos and Anaconda cables were successfully tested at Wyle Laboratories for 40 year qualified life.2. Cable Jamming Since WBN documents did not address cable jam ratio, there was the potential for undetected cable damage.When single conductors with unacceptable jam ratios are pulled into a conduit, the cable may align in a flat configuration with a resultant jamming.For Unit 1, Class 1 E conduits were evaluated to identify those segments most likely to have experienced jamming during installation.
These segments were ranked according to their calculated percent sidewall bearing pressure.
Cables were removed and inspected, and no evidence of damage due to jamming was identified.
The inspected cables included those with the highest calculated side wall bearing pressure and were considered to bound the lower ranked cables. This evaluation addressed both Unit 1 and Unit 2 cable populations potentially subject to jamming.3. Cable Support in Vertical Conduits A concern was raised that cables in long vertical conduits were inadequately supported, and that random failures due to cutting of the insulation and conductor creep may occur during normal service condition, especially for silicone rubber insulated cables.For Unit 1, TVA identified the critical cases of silicone rubber insulated cables in vertical conduits, with cable bearing pressure occurring at the edge of the condulet the determining factor. A comparison was made of WBN critical cases with those already tested at SQN. If SQN conduits enveloped WBN, no cable testing by.WBN was performed.
If SQN conduits did not envelope WBN, cable was replaced or in situ cable testing was performed; any cable found unacceptable was replaced.
TVA also evaluated Class 1 E conduits containing cables of all insulation types and added cable supports when acceptance criteria were not satisfied.
In addition, cable installation specification and site procedures were revised to incorporate appropriate cable support requirements for cable installed in vertical conduits, and thereby prevent recurrence.
Conduits that exceeded the support requirements of General Construction Specification G-38 were analyzed and conduit suppporpointswith bearinqgpressurejreater than allowable were inspected and supports added as CAP Plan: STVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991" SSER9, June 1992" NRC letter February 14, 1994 Silicone Rubber Insulated Cables -CAP is open (Design & Physical Modification).

For Unit 2, the Unit 1 approach will be used.
i f Unit 2 Status and Program Description References TVA Commitments required.4. Cable Support in Vertical Trays TVA's specifications require that cables in vertical trays be supported in accordance with the National Electric Code to prevent long term cable damage and that this support may be provided by tie wraps. However, TVA had no basis to verify that cable ties could provide adequate support.TVA evaluated the acceptability of various tie wrap configurations as support systems. If a configuration was found to be inadequate, it was shown by analysis, similarity to other installations, or testing that no cable damage had occurred or would occur. Cable support was added when manufacturers' limits were exceeded.To prevent recurrence, TVA revised the cable installation specification and site procedures to identify acceptable methods for support of cables in vertical trays.5. Cable Proximity to Hot Pipes Cable design did not include the local effects of hot pipes which increase local temperature and can degrade the cable insulation and shorten the life of the cables. For Unit 1, criteria were developed to detail required clearances between cable/raceways and hot pipes/valves to eliminate this potential impact. Class 1 E cables were walked down against the criteria to ensure that adequate separation existed between the cables and hot pipes/valves.
Deviations were resolved by analysis, change of pipe insulation or raceway rework.6. Cable Pullbys Cable insulation damage was found in the Unit 2 Reactor Protection System and determined to be the result of cable pullby. When additional cables were removed, damage was also found. These deficiencies were addressed at the time.For Unit 1, TVA identified those locations where cable pull tension and cable side wall bearing pressure had exceeded certain safe threshold values, and cables were most susceptible to this damage mechanism based on the conduit-configuration.
All cables that were in high risk conduits Were replaced.
The threshold between low and high risk categories was validated via hi-pot testing or visual inspection, and cables in the low risk category conduits were accepted as is based on the hi-pot tests performed on a sample of low-risk category conduits.7. Cable Bend Radius The minimum bend radius recommended by the Insulated Cable Engineers Association had been violated at WBN. To resolve this issue on Unit 1, TVA established bend radius parameters (upper and lower bounds) for class 1 E cables and revised General Construction Specification G-38 to include the bend radius requirements for cable installation.
Cable was then categorized based on 10 CFR 50.49 requirements, classification and voltage level; and inspected and replaced, retrained or their qualified life reduced, based on bending or kinking relative to upper and lower bound bend radii.Cable Support in Vertical Trays -CAP is open (Design & Physical Modification).

- 8. Cable Splices To resolve a concern that the installed splices may not conform to the qualified configurations and materials tested by the vendor, a list of Class 1 E cable splices in harsh and mild environments was developed.
Cables and splices were identified by reviewing equipment qualification binders and construction records to determine which equipment uses pigtails for field cable connection.
All 10 CFR 50.49 harsh environment cable splices requiring Raychem Type N material were replaced and some mild environment cable splices were reworked.
A sampling program was implemented to verify that the splice list was complete for intermediate splices.9. Cable Sidewall Bearing Pressure At WBN, sidewall bearing pressure (SWBP) was not properly addressed in the design and installation process and installations may have exceeded the allowable value. To resolve this issue on Unit 1, TVA conducted a walk down to identify worst case conduit configuration, calculated the expected pulling tension and SWBP for those worst case conduits and performed a test to determine increased allowable SWBP values, based on actual cables used at TVA nuclear plants.TVA revised construction specifications to require that SWBP be limited to the values determined by the above activities and site installation procedures were revised to provide explicit cable SWBP restriction to cable pulling limits.Analysis of the 81 severe case conduits against these limits revealed that the cable in one conduit may have exceeded these values, and this cable was replaced.
An additional sample of 40 conduits, all in harsh environment, was examined and none exceeded allowable SWBP.10. Pulling Cable Through 900 Condulet and Flexible Conduit A concern was raised for the potential damage to cables in 900 condulets due to the small supporting surface the inside corners of condulets provide for cables under tension. These comers can, in time, cut into the insulation, or the conductor can creep through the insulation, reducing the insulation level of the cables. There was also a concern that when cable is pulled through a flexible conduit segment in a bend, in the middle of a conduit run, it can be subjected to very high frictional forces that can tear the cable jacket and insulation.
TVA evaluated cables pulled through mid-route flexible conduits which had been tested for pullby damage, and inspected cables removed, and confirmed that no damage was caused by the mid-route flexible conduits.Cable Splices -CAP is open (Design & Physical Modification).
For Unit 2, the Unit 1 approach will be used.Cable Sidewall Bearing Pressure (SWBP) -CAP is complete.
Based on the results of the Unit 1 program for this issue, which included Unit 1 and 2 cables and did not find excessive SWBP, no corrective action will be required for Unit 2. See Note 1.Pullinq Cable Through 90°Condulet and Flexible Conduit -CAP is complete.Since no cable damage was found during the Unit 1 program due to this activity and no such damage has been found at any of the WVA Nuclear sites, no corrective action is necessary.

- 2. Physical Cable Separation and Electrical Isolation There were isolated cases of redundant closed raceways with less than the minimum required 1-inch separation.
For Unit 1, this issue was subdivided into three issues, and each was reso!ved separately.
The issues were: " Separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E raceways.* Internal panel separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E cables." Coil-to-contact and contact-to-contact isolation between Class 1 E and non-Class 1 E circuits For inadequate separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E raceways, the raceways were reworked to meet the minimum 1-inch separation requirement, and site implementing procedures were revised to require specific signoffs for raceway separation attributes.
For inadequate internal panel separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E cables, design criteria were revised to include more detailed requirements for internal panel cable separation, an engineering output document was issued to define these requirements and a list of all panels with redundant divisions of Class 1 E cables was developed.
Panels containing cables of redundant divisions were walked down to identify cables which did not comply with the revised engineering output document, and these were evaluated to determine acceptability or reworked to meet required separation distances.
For coil-to-contact and contact-to-contact isolation between Class 1 E and non-Class 1 E circuits, a calculation was developed to determine acceptability; design criteria were revised to specify acceptable isolation methods;and the existing Class 1 E coil and contact devices used as isolators were reviewed to determine that they were qualified for their intended use.3. Contact and Coil Rating of Electrical Devices Design and procurements of inductive devices contained in circuits did not consider the inductive load ratings of contacts or the maximum credible voltage available at the device terminals.
To resolve this for Unit 1, WVA reviewed devices that performed inductive load switching, and determined if the contacts had acceptable current ratings and reviewed inductive devices to determine if coils were qualified for the highest and lowest credible voltages.
If a device could not be qualified, design output documents were issued to require replacement, and qualified devices were installed.

Traceability concerns involved ASME loose piping and fitting material and ASTM material installed as welded attachments on ASME piping systems, and were categorized as: " ASME Class 1 systems that may contain ASME Class 2, Class 3 and/or ASTM piping for which adequate NDE may not have been performed* ASME Class 2 systems that may contain class 3 piping, and ASME Class 2 and Class 3 systems that may contain ASTM piping for which adequate NDE may not have been performed" ASME systems that may have ASTM plate material attached (welded).For the Unit 1 program, which included common systems, the following corrective actions were taken: " Accuracy of the information contained in the Heat Code Database (HCDB) was verified, and this information was used to flag situations where the same ASME material was used in systems of different classifications." For Class 1 piping, surface NDE was performed on all piping materials where the heat number was the same as for material used in a non-Class 1 system. When NDE was not feasible, alternate analysis prescribed by the ASME Code was performed.
Material which could not be examined or technically justified was replaced." For Class 2 and 3 piping, required NDE was performed when classification traceability was questionable and items were installed in locations where stress ratios exceeded 0.80 for welded carbon steel and 0.85 for welded stainless steel. For cases involving ASTM, ASME Section II, and ASME Section III material which may have been upgraded to ASME Section III, Class 2 or 3 materials, the items were re-verified as meeting all other requirements of Section III on a sampling basis. Engineering evaluations were performed on non-complying items to provide a basis of acceptance.

- NUREG-1232 Pipe and tube bending devices SSER6, Appendix K, Compression fittings April 1991 Installation documentation discrepancies Supplemental SER The scope of the structural issues included Seismic Category I and I (L) instrument lines, and their associated May 6, 1994 supports, which are analytically decoupled from the process lines.Thermal Effects Instrument lines and associated supports were not designed to consider the effects of thermal expansion and operating modes indicated that portions of systems will be subjected to thermal effects. These Unit 1 lines were field sketched to identify material and configuration; then analyzed for dead weight, seismic and thermal effects;line isometric drawings prepared showing required line configuration and material; and deficiencies corrected by design changes.Pine and Tube Bending Devices Site implementing procedures used to qualify pipe and tube bending devices were not rigorously executed and qualification records for the bending were not always maintained.
A sample of bends was evaluated considering wall thickness reduction, ovality, acceptable bend contour, and surface condition and found to be acceptable, and bender qualification records were updated to incorporate the results of the evaluation.
Compression Fittings Compression fitting installations were found that did not satisfy the manufacturer's installation requirements.
Discrepancies included:
tubing cuts that were not deburred, tubing that was not bottomed out inside the fittings, nuts that were not properly tightened, and ferrules that were unidentifiable, missing, or reversed.Discrepant compression fitting installations were vibration and pressure tested. This included testing of the effect on flow rate due to the presence of tubing burrs and testing of the integrity of fittings with various installation deficiencies by tensile pullout, and vibration and seismic tests. The results demonstrated that for the instances where tube ends were not deburred, tubes were not bottomed out, or nuts were not properly tightened, fitting performance was still satisfactory.
Also, normal operation vibration testing did not result in leaks in any of the samples tested and seismic testing only produced very slight leakage in 2 of the 47 samples.The test program for fittings with missing, reversed, or unidentified ferrules determined that: missing ferrules would cause a definite leak durinq pressure testing; reversed ferrules would leak if they are "CPI" fittings and would not T3-13 Unit 2 Status and Program Description References TVA Commitments leak if they are reversed "Hi-Seal" ferrules.It was determined that for these questionable ferrule installations, unacceptable installations would be detected during pressure testing due to leakage and for instrument lines that are not pressure tested, there would be no driving force to create any significant leakage. Therefore, the following corrective actions were taken:-Instrument lines designated as Seismic Category I or I(L) were pressure tested in accordance with appropriate piping code requirements Fittings seeing radioactive service in lines not pressure tested (i.e., drains) were re-inspected to verify installation in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, and discrepancies repaired or replaced.Since pressure testing was performed as required and leaking compression fittings were repaired or replaced, the final configurations were ultimately acceptable.
Installation Discrepancies Support documentation for some instrument lines was determined to be lost or incorrect.
A sample of instrument line supports was selected for a detailed evaluation to determine the acceptability of the as-built condition, and it was determined that the instrument lines and supports would comply with existing design basis requirements provided all attachment clamps and bolts were properly installed.
The supports were then walked down and, when necessary, they were reworked.Recurrence controls for each of the above structural issues consisted of revising specifications, design drawings and procedures, and required training.T3-14 Unit 2 Status and Program Description References TVA Commitments CAP -QA Records: CAP Plan: CAP is open (Design).

A comparison was made of WBN critical cases with those already tested at SQN. If SQN conduits enveloped WBN, no cable testing by WBN was performed.
If SQN conduits did not envelope WBN, cable was replaced or in situ cable testing was performed; any cable found unacceptable was replaced.
TVA also evaluated Class 1 E conduits containing cables of all insulation types and added cable supports when acceptance criteria were not satisfied.
In addition, cable installation specification and site procedures were revised to incorporate appropriate cable support requirements for cable installed in vertical conduits, and thereby prevent recurrence.
Conduits that exceeded the support requirements of General Construction Specification G-38 were analyzed and conduit support points with bearing pressure greater than allowable were inspected and supports added as required.References CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991* Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* SSER9, June 1992" NRC letter February 14, 1994* Status -Commitments I CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).

However, TVA had no basis to verify that cable ties could provide adequate support.TVA evaluated the acceptability of various tie wrap configurations as support systems. If a configuration was found to be inadequate, it was shown by analysis, similarity to other installations, or testing that no cable damage had occurred or would occur. Cable support was added when manufacturers' limits were exceeded.
To prevent recurrence, TVA revised the cable installation specification and site procedures to identify acceptable methods for support of cables in vertical trays.References CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit I -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for CableIssues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* Status -Commitments I CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).

SSER9, June 1992.NRC letter February 14, 1994 CAP: Cable Issues 5 Cable Proximity to Hot Pipes Cable design did not include the local effects of hot pipes which increase local temperature and can degrade the cable insulation and shorten the life of the cables. For Unit 1, criteria were developed to detail required clearances between cable/raceways and hot pipes/valves to eliminate this potential impact. Class 1 E cables were walked down against the criteria to ensure that adequate separation existed between the cables and hot pipes/valves.
Deviations were resolved by analysis, change of pipe insulation or raceway rework.CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach:-Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991 CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).

To resolve this issue on Unit 1, TVA established bend radius parameters (upper and lower bounds) for class 1 E cables and revised General Construction Specification G-38 to include the bend radius requirements for cable installation.
Cable was then categorized based on 10 CFR 50.49 requirements, classification and voltage level; and inspected and replaced, retrained or their qualified life reduced, based on bending or kinking relative to upper and lower bound bend radii.References CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991* Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) .7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* Status -Commitments I CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).

For Unit 2, the Unit 1 approach will be used.For the Unit 1 program, which included common systems, the following corrective actions were taken: Accuracy of the information contained in the Heat Code Database (HCDB) was verified, and this information was used to flag situations where the same ASME material was used in systems of different classifications.
For Class 1 piping, surface.NDE was performed on all piping materials where the heat number was the same as for material used in a non-Class 1 system. When NDE was not feasible, alternate analysis prescribed by the ASME Code was performed.
Material which could not be examined or technically justified was replaced.For Class 2 and 3 piping, required NDE was performed when classification traceability was questionable and items were installed in locations where stress ratios exceeded 0.80 for welded carbon steel and 0.85 for welded stainless steel. For cases involving ASTM, ASME Section II, and ASME Section III material which may have been upgraded to ASME Section III, Class 2 or 3 materials, the items were re-verified as meeting all other requirements of Section III on a.sampling basis.Engineering evaluations were performed on non complying items to provide a basis of acceptance.
Material determined to be unacceptable was replaced.-ASTM plate attachment material used in ASME applications was determined to be acceptable by verifying equivalence to an ASME specification, that it was supplied to an acceptable QA program and the necessary Note 1: TVA will submit a justification for the issues where a different approach will be used for Unit 2.

CAP: HVAC Duct Supports Adverse conditions involving HVAC Duct and Duct Supports can be programmatically characterized as: incomplete design basis;inadequate design documents; as-built configurations not in conformance with existing design documents; inadequate or incomplete inspection documentation; and incomplete instructions.
For Unit 1, TVA resolved these issues via the following four tasks: " Completing the design basis by reviewing and revising the design criteria; issuing supporting calculations and updating the FSAR to be consistent with the upgraded design criteria.* Updating design output documents to be consistent with the completed design basis." Revising construction, maintenance and QA procedures to incorporate design output documents.

The number of lines involved and the lack of adequate configuration control for these lines resulted in preparation of an Engineering Requirements (ER) Specification; isometric and support drawings;analysis of lines identified for rework; and installation and inspection per design output requirements.
In addition to the ER Specification, other recurrence control measures included site implementing procedures to incorporate ER requirements in the process for the installation, maintenance, and inspection." Structural problems related to:-Thermal effects-Pipe and tube bending devices-Compression fittings-Installation documentation discrepancies The scope of the structural issues included Seismic Category I and I (L) instrument lines, and their associated supports, which are analytically decoupled from the process lines.Thermal Effects Instrument lines and associated supports were not designed to consider the effects of thermal expansion and operating modes indicated that portions of systems will be subjected to thermal effects. These Unit 1 lines were field sketched to identify material and configuration; then analyzed for dead weight, seismic and thermal -effects; line isometric drawings prepared showing required line configuration and material; and deficiencies corrected by design changes.Pipe and Tube Bending Devices Site implementing procedures used to qualify pipe and tube bending devices were not rigorously executed and qualification records for the bending were not always maintained.
A sample of bends was evaluated considering wall thickness reduction, ovality, acceptable bend contour, and surface condition and found to be acceptable, and bender qualification records were updated to incorporate the results of the evaluation.
Compression Fittings Compression fitting installations were found that did not satisfy References CAP Plan:* TVA letter dated March 11, 1994, WBN Unit 1 -Revision to Corrective Action Program Plan for Instrument Lines (R3)* Status -Commitments I CAP is open (Design and Physical Modification).

- Status -Commitments the manufacturer's installation requirements.
Discrepancies included:
tubing cuts that were not deburred, tubing that was not bottomed out inside the fittings, nuts that were not properly tightened, and ferrules that were unidentifiable, missing, or reversed.Discrepant compression fitting installations were vibration and pressure tested. This included testing of the effect on flow rate due to the presence of tubing burrs and testing of the integrity of fittings with various installation deficiencies by tensile pullout, and vibration and seismic tests. The results demonstrated that for the instances where tube ends were not deburred, tubes were not bottomed out, or nuts were not properly tightened, fitting performance was still satisfactory.
Also, normal operation vibration testing did not result in leaks in any of the samples tested and seismic testing only produced very slight leakage in 2 of the 47 samples.The test program for fittings with missing, reversed, or unidentified ferrules determined that: missing ferrules would cause a definite leak during pressure testing; reversed ferrules would leak if they are "CPI" fittings and would not leak if they are reversed "Hi-Seal" ferrules.It was determined that for these questionable ferrule installations, unacceptable installations would be detected during pressure testing due to leakage and for instrument lines that are not pressure tested, there would be no driving force to create any significant leakage. Therefore, the following corrective actions were taken:-Instrument lines designated as Seismic Category I or I(L)were pressure tested in accordance with appropriate piping code requirements
-Fittings seeing radioactive service in lines not pressure tested (i.e., drains) were re-inspected to verify installation in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, and discrepancies repaired or replaced.Since pressure testing was performed as required and leaking compression fittings were repaired or replaced, the final configurations were ultimately acceptable.
Installation Discrepancies Support documentation for some instrument lines was determined to be lost or incorrect.
A sample of instrument line supports was selected for a detailed evaluation to determine the Page 17 Note 1: TVA will submit a justification for the issues where a different approach will be used for Unit 2.

The supports were then walked down and, when necessary, they were reworked.Recurrence controls for each of the above structural issues consisted of revising specifications, design drawings and procedures, and required training.CAP: QA Records A number of the quality records required for licensing:
- Were not retrievable in a timely manner or potentially missing* Were not maintained in proper storage" Had quality problems (were incomplete, technically or administratively deficient)
To address these issues, the QA Records CAP was developed with the following objectives for these records: " Ensure adequate storage and retrievability." Resolve quality and technical problems." Ensure programs are established which are adequate to prevent reoccurrence of records problems.CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated April 6, 1994, WBN Unit 1 -CAP Plan for QA Records, Revision 6 NRC Approval of Approach: " SSER9, June 1992" WB Unit 1 -Staff Position on Certain Aspects of QA Records CAP, January 12, 1993" Supplemental Safety Evaluation on the QA Records CAP Plan, April 25, 1994 I CAP is open (Design).For Unit 2, the Unit 1 approach will be used.During the course of implementation of the CAP, additional records issues were identified.
Evaluation of these issues indicated a need to expand the scope to address the full extent of condition by including a broader set of records categories.
This was accomplished through incorporating an Additional Systematic Records Review (ASRR) of all ANSI N45.2.9, Appendix A record types into the CAP. This review involved both records and hardware and was based on sampling and statistical analysis.
It provided a high level of confidence in the adequacy of QA Records.Page 18 Note 1: TVA will submit a justification for the issues where a different approach will be used for Unit 2.

Subsequently, the Welding CAP was established to ensure that Unit 1 safety-related welds met licensing requirements and that corrective actions were implemented to address the prior issues and those identified by the Welding Project. The CAP included deficiencies which were related to weld quality, inspections, NDE, fabrication/installation code compliance, and associated documentation.
The CAP consisted of three phases:* A programmatic assessment." An in depth review of the implementation of the welding program and corrective actions to address specific discrepancies.
- Program enhancements to prevent recurrence.
The programmatic assessment and program enhancements to prevent recurrence applied to Unit 2 as well as Unit 1.The specific deficiencies that had to be addressed for Unit 1 involved structural steel, piping components, pipe supports, instrument panels, HVAC ductwork and vendor supplied component such as tanks and heat exchangers.
The types of deficiencies included: " Designs that did not satisfy design criteria for welding." Lack of documentation of required visual inspections." Indications or weld discontinuities.
- Radiographs accepted with rejectable indications, inadequate radiographic techniques, and identification discrepancies." Misinterpretation of the ASME Code." Discrepancies on vendor performed welds." Errors on installation documentation.

TVA conducted the CRDR and submitted a CRDR Summary Report in October 1987. The CRDR addressed the man-machine interfaces and potential misapplication of human factor principles in the main control room, the auxiliary control room, and the adjacent switch transfer rooms. TVA established a review program plan incorporating accepted human factor principles, gathered and reviewed required plant design information, surveyed the Control Room, identified and assessed HEDs, determined design improvements required, and verified that improvements would address deficiencies and not create new ones.The CRDR Program ultimately included development of HED corrective actions for Unit 1, common equipment needed for Unit 1, and Unit 2 equipment needed to support Unit 1.Actions to ensure recurrence controls included issuing Human Factor Design Guides and Human Factor Design Criteria, and the Design Change Process requiring human factors to be addressed.

This Special Program included three primary elements to resolve these deficiencies: " To address configuration control deficiencies, a baseline master fuse list was developed using design input to establish a comprehensive list of 1 E fuses needed to support the operation of Unit 1 systems; then walk downs were performed to gather as-installed information to be included on the list." To resolve the Bussman KAZ actuator misapplication, a review of schematic and connection drawings identified KAZ locations, and a DCN was developed to replace KAZ devices with conventional fuses." To correct deficiencies involving redundancy provided to electrical penetration assemblies, an analysis was conducted to verify that redundant protection was provided and, when not the case, identified deficiencies were corrected.
While the principle focus of the program was on 1 E safety-related equipment, the program has evolved to establish similar controls and practices for all fuses needed to support the operation of the station.SP Plan: " NPP, Section 111.3.5 -Master Fuse List* TVA letter dated July 31, 1990, Response to Concerns in NRC SER for WBN NPP Volume 4 -Master Fuse List" TVA letter dated May 31, 1991, Response to NRC Supplemental SER Concerning the WBN NPP on the Master Fuse List NRC Approval of Approach: " NUREG-1232" NRC letter dated February 6, 1991, WB Unit 1 -Special Program on Master Fuse List" SSER9, June 1992* Status -Commitments I SP is open (Design and Physical Modification).

Incorporation of EQ considerations into maintenance activities The activities performed using these processes were: " Analyses of the effects of pipe breaks on temperature, humidity, dose and water level at various locations in containment and auxiliary buildings to establish the environmental parameters for all areas of the plant containing equipment that must meet 10 CFR 50.49 requirements." Identification of all 10 CFR 50.49 equipment in these areas, the 50.49 list, including electrical equipment located in harsh environment and required to function after an accident.

When single conductors with unacceptable jam ratios are pulled into a conduit, the cable may align in a flat configuration with a resultant jamming.For Unit 1, Class 1 E conduits were evaluated to identify those segments most likely to have experienced jamming during installation.
These segments were ranked according to their calculated percent sidewall bearing pressure.
Cables were removed and inspected, and no evidence of damage due to jamming was identified.
The inspected cables included those with the highest calculated side wall bearing pressure and were considered to bound the lower ranked cables. This evaluation addressed both Unit I and Unit 2 cable populations potentially subject to jamming.References CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* Status -Commitments L CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).

When additional cables were removed, damage was also found. These deficiencies were addressed at the time.For Unit 1, TVA identified those locations where cable pull tension and cable side wall bearing pressure had exceeded certain safe threshold values, and cables were most susceptible to this damage mechanism based on the conduit configuration.
All cables that were in high risk conduits were replaced.
The threshold between low and high risk categories was validated via hi-pot testing or visual inspection, and cables in the low risk category conduits were accepted as is based on the hi-pot tests performed on a sample of low-risk category conduits.References CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* Status -Commitments L CAP is open (Design &Physical Modification).
TVA will propose a different approach for Unit 2.See Note 1." SSER9, June 1992" NRC letter February 14, 1994 CAP: Cable Issues 9 Cable Sidewall Bearing Pressure At WBN, sidewall bearing pressure (SWBP) was not properly addressed in the design and installation process and installations may have exceeded the allowable value. To resolve this issue on Unit 1, TVA conducted a walk down to identify worst case conduit configuration, calculated the expected pulling tension and SWBP for those worst case conduits and performed a test to determine increased allowable SWBP values, based on actual cables used at TVA nuclear plants.TVA revised construction specifications to require that SWBP be limited to the values determined by the above activities and site installation procedures were revised to provide explicit cable SWBP restriction to cable pulling limits.Analysis of the 81 severe case conduits against these limits revealed that the cable in one conduit may have exceeded these values, and this cable was replaced.
An additional sample of 40 conduits, all in harsh environment, was examined and none exceeded allowable SWBP.CAP Plan: L CAP is complete.-TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991" SSER9. June 1992 Based on the results of the Unit 1 program for this issue, which included Unit 1 and 2 cables and did not find excessive SWBP, no corrective action will be required for Unit 2.See Note 1.*NRC letter February 14, 1994 Page 2 Note 1: TVA will submit a justification for the issues where a different approach will be used for Unit 2.

These comers can, in time, cut into the insulation, or the conductor can creep through the insulation, reducing the insulation level of the cables. There was also a concern that when cable is pulled through a flexible conduit segment in a bend, in the middle of a conduit run, it can be subjected to very high frictional forces that can tear the cable jacket and insulation.
TVA evaluated cables pulled through mid-route flexible conduits which had been tested for pullby damage, and inspected cables removed, and confirmed that no damage was caused by the mid route flexible conduits.References CAP Plan:* TVA letter dated January 13, 1994, Revision 3 to the CAP Plan for Cable Issues NRC Approval of Approach: " Safety Evaluation for WB Unit 1 -Corrective Action Program (CAP) Plan for Cable Issues, April 25, 1991" Supplemental Safety Evaluation (SSER) 7, of NUREG-0847, Safety Evaluation Report Related to the Operation of WBNP, Units 1 and 2, dated September 1991* Status -Commitments L CAP is complete.Since no cable damage was found during the Unit 1 program due to this activity and no such damage has been found at any of the TVA Nuclear sites, no corrective action is necessary.

For Unit 1, this issue was subdivided into three issues, and each was resolved separately.
The issues were:-Separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E raceways.-Internal panel separation between redundant divisions of Class 1E cables.-Coil-to-contact and contact-to-contact isolation between Class 1 E and non Class 1 E circuits For inadequate separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E raceways, the raceways were reworked to meet the minimum 1-inch separation requirement, and site implementing procedures were revised to require specific signoffs for raceway separation attributes.
For inadequate internal panel separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E cables, design criteria were revised to include more detailed requirements for internal panel cable separation, an engineering output document was issued to define these requirements and a list of all panels with redundant divisions of Class 1 E cables was developed.
Panels containing cables of redundant divisions were walked down to identify cables which did not comply with the revised engineering output document, and these were evaluated to determine acceptability or reworked to meet required separation distances.
For coil-to-contact and contact-to-contact isolation between Class 1 E and non Class 1 E circuits, a calculation was developed to determine acceptability; design criteria were revised to specify acceptable isolation methods; and the existing Class 1 E coil and contact devices used as isolators were reviewed to determine that they were qualified for their intended use.CAP Plan:-TVA letter dated February 15, 1989, CAP Plan for Electrical Issues NRC Approval of Approach:* Safety Evaluation of the WB Unit 1 CAP Plan for Electrical Issues, September 11, 1989* NUREG-1232

For Unit 2, the Unit 1 approach will be used to address separation between redundant divisions of Class 1 E raceways and internal panel separation between redundant divisions of class 1E cable. Since no coil-to-contact or contact-to-contact isolation breakage was identified on Unit 1, no action is required for Unit 2 on this issue.
