Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. Findings, violations, and additional items being considered in the NRCs assessment are summarized in the tables below. | ||
List of Findings and Violations Failure to Translate the Design Requirements into Instructions for Service Water System Sluice Gate Single Failure Cornerstone | ===List of Findings and Violations=== | ||
Failure to Translate the Design Requirements into Instructions for Service Water System Sluice Gate Single Failure Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems Green NCV 05000313/2019001-01 Closed None 71111.04 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to translate design requirements for the Unit 1 service water system into instructions or procedures. Specifically, the plant was licensed to allow manual operator actions to compensate for a single failure of a service water sluice gate during a design basis event (e.g., loss of Lake Dardanelle), but the complex actions were never translated into a procedure. | |||
Welding Programmatic Issue Cornerstone | Welding Programmatic Issue Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green NCV 05000368/2019001-02 Open/Closed | ||
[H.5] - Work Management 71111.08P The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, "Control of Special Processes," for a failure to establish measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements. | |||
Failure to Take Timely Corrective Actions for a Previously Identified Deficient Condition Associated with Bussmann HKA Fuse Holder Caps Cornerstone | Failure to Take Timely Corrective Actions for a Previously Identified Deficient Condition Associated with Bussmann HKA Fuse Holder Caps Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green FIN 05000313/2019001-03 Closed | ||
[H.5] - Work Management 71152 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding associated with the licensees failure to take timely corrective actions for potential failures identified through industry operating experience. Specifically, the licensee identified a failure mode of Bussmann Model HKA fuse holder caps through industry operating experience and through the corrective action program, determined that it was applicable to Arkansas Nuclear One, and created work orders to replace the susceptible fuse holder caps. However, these work orders were assigned the lowest possible priority in the work control system. An actual failure of a fuse cap occurred in the integrated control system which went undetected, and later prevented a runback from initiating when two out of three condensate pumps were no longer running. This resulted in the plant tripping instead of running back to 40 percent power. | |||
Failure to Adequately Pre-Plan Maintenance that Affected Safety-Related Equipment Cornerstone | Failure to Adequately Pre-Plan Maintenance that Affected Safety-Related Equipment Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green NCV 05000313/2019001-04 Closed | ||
[H.12] - Avoid Complacency 71153 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding and associated non-cited violation of Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1, Technical Specifications 5.4.1.a, for the licensees failure to properly preplan maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment. | |||
Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus, which resulted in the loss of the nonsafety-related 4160 volt A1 bus and the automatic start of emergency diesel generator 1 to provide power to the safety-related 4160 volt A3 bus. | Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus, which resulted in the loss of the nonsafety-related 4160 volt A1 bus and the automatic start of emergency diesel generator 1 to provide power to the safety-related 4160 volt A3 bus. | ||

From this review, the inspectors identified the following: | ||
The Unit 1 safety analysis report (SAR) states that the service water system was required to operate during and following certain natural phenomenon (e.g. loss of Lake Dardanelle). It further describes the single failure analysis for the service water system which credits and describes the operator actions required if a sluice gate fails to open or close (information is contained in SAR Table 9-11, Single Failure Analysis - Service Water System). However, the inspectors were unable to locate the instructions discussed in SAR Table 9-11 in Procedure OP-1203.025 or Procedure OP-1203.030. When questioned, the licensee concluded that there were no instructions that would implement the sluice gate single failure operator actions contained in SAR Table 9-11. The licensee entered this deficiency into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2019-00155. This condition could challenge operators when responding to a sluice gate failure. Inspectors determined that the delay in correctly aligning the seven sluice gates could allow some loss of emergency cooling pond (ECP) water inventory, but operators were still expected to be able to make the alignment change without challenging the safety function. | The Unit 1 safety analysis report (SAR) states that the service water system was required to operate during and following certain natural phenomenon (e.g. loss of Lake Dardanelle).

[H.5] - Work Management 71152 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding associated with the licensees failure to take timely corrective actions for potential failures identified through industry operating experience. Specifically, the licensee identified a failure mode of Bussmann Model HKA fuse holder caps through industry operating experience and through the corrective action program, determined that it was applicable to ANO, and created work orders to replace the susceptible fuse holder caps. However, these work orders were assigned the lowest possible priority in the work control system. An actual failure of a fuse cap occurred in the integrated control system (ICS) which went undetected, and later prevented a runback from initiating when two out of three condensate pumps were no longer running. This resulted in the plant tripping instead of running back to 40 percent power. | |||

| Line 341: | Line 406: | ||
Corrective Action(s): The licensee replaced the degraded fuse holder cap within the ICS system. The licensee also checked for proper voltage in the C46-1 panel to ensure the health of the eight fuse holder caps that directly power auxiliary relays for plant runback features. All eight were verified to be providing the appropriate voltage. | Corrective Action(s): The licensee replaced the degraded fuse holder cap within the ICS system.

SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a quarterly inspection at Arkansas Nuclear One Units 1 and 2 in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. Findings, violations, and additional items being considered in the NRCs assessment are summarized in the tables below.
List of Findings and Violations
Failure to Translate the Design Requirements into Instructions for Service Water System Sluice Gate Single Failure Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems Green NCV 05000313/2019001-01 Closed None 71111.04 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to translate design requirements for the Unit 1 service water system into instructions or procedures. Specifically, the plant was licensed to allow manual operator actions to compensate for a single failure of a service water sluice gate during a design basis event (e.g., loss of Lake Dardanelle), but the complex actions were never translated into a procedure.
Welding Programmatic Issue Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green NCV 05000368/2019001-02 Open/Closed
[H.5] - Work Management 71111.08P The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, "Control of Special Processes," for a failure to establish measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements.
Failure to Take Timely Corrective Actions for a Previously Identified Deficient Condition Associated with Bussmann HKA Fuse Holder Caps Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green FIN 05000313/2019001-03 Closed
[H.5] - Work Management 71152 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding associated with the licensees failure to take timely corrective actions for potential failures identified through industry operating experience. Specifically, the licensee identified a failure mode of Bussmann Model HKA fuse holder caps through industry operating experience and through the corrective action program, determined that it was applicable to Arkansas Nuclear One, and created work orders to replace the susceptible fuse holder caps. However, these work orders were assigned the lowest possible priority in the work control system. An actual failure of a fuse cap occurred in the integrated control system which went undetected, and later prevented a runback from initiating when two out of three condensate pumps were no longer running. This resulted in the plant tripping instead of running back to 40 percent power.
Failure to Adequately Pre-Plan Maintenance that Affected Safety-Related Equipment Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events Green NCV 05000313/2019001-04 Closed
[H.12] - Avoid Complacency 71153 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding and associated non-cited violation of Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1, Technical Specifications 5.4.1.a, for the licensees failure to properly preplan maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment.
Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus, which resulted in the loss of the nonsafety-related 4160 volt A1 bus and the automatic start of emergency diesel generator 1 to provide power to the safety-related 4160 volt A3 bus.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Failure to Translate the Design Requirements into Instructions for Service Water System Sluice Gate Single Failure Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems
Green NCV 05000313/2019001-01 Closed None 71111.04 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to translate design requirements for the Unit 1 service water system into instructions or procedures. Specifically, the plant was licensed to allow manual operator actions to compensate for a single failure of a service water sluice gate during a design basis event (e.g., loss of Lake Dardanelle), but the complex actions were never translated into a procedure.
Description:
The inspectors reviewed Unit 1 Procedure OP-1203.025, Natural Emergencies, Revision 67, Procedure OP-1203.030, Loss of Service Water, Revision 26, and the current licensing and design basis for the service water system prior to the licensee aligning service water pump B to the train A service water system. From this review, the inspectors identified the following:
The Unit 1 safety analysis report (SAR) states that the service water system was required to operate during and following certain natural phenomenon (e.g. loss of Lake Dardanelle). It further describes the single failure analysis for the service water system which credits and describes the operator actions required if a sluice gate fails to open or close (information is contained in SAR Table 9-11, Single Failure Analysis - Service Water System). However, the inspectors were unable to locate the instructions discussed in SAR Table 9-11 in Procedure OP-1203.025 or Procedure OP-1203.030. When questioned, the licensee concluded that there were no instructions that would implement the sluice gate single failure operator actions contained in SAR Table 9-11. The licensee entered this deficiency into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2019-00155. This condition could challenge operators when responding to a sluice gate failure. Inspectors determined that the delay in correctly aligning the seven sluice gates could allow some loss of emergency cooling pond (ECP) water inventory, but operators were still expected to be able to make the alignment change without challenging the safety function.
Corrective Action(s): The immediate action was to update Procedure OP-1203.025, Natural Emergencies, Revision 68, to incorporate the sluice gate single failure design requirements contained in SAR Table 9-11.
Corrective Action Reference(s): CR-ANO-1-2019-00155
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to assure that service water system design requirements were translated into instructions, procedures, or drawings is a performance deficiency. Specifically, operator manual actions credited to meet the design requirement to ensure that a single failure of a sluice gate will not prevent the safety function of the service water system were described in the SAR but were not translated into a procedure.
Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the procedural quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensees failure to translate service water system sluice gate single failure design into instructions would have complicated operator response during a design basis event (e.g. loss of Lake Dardanelle) to maintain service water system capability.
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012, the inspectors determined that the finding had very low safety significance (Green) because it:
- (1) was not a design deficiency;
- (2) did not represent a loss of system and/or function;
- (3) did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time; and
- (4) did not result in the loss of a high safety-significant, nontechnical specification train.
Cross-cutting Aspect: A cross-cutting aspect was not assigned to this finding because the performance deficiency occurred during initial construction, and therefore, is not indicative of current licensee performance.
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires, in part, measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as defined in 50.2 and as specified in the license application, for those structures, systems, and components to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions.
Contrary to the above, from initial licensing until January 2019, the licensee failed to establish measures to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as defined in 50.2 and as specified in the license application for the Unit 1 service water system design, was correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions.
Specifically, the licensee failed to translate the operator manual actions credited to meet single failure design requirements for the Unit 1 service water system sluice gate into instructions or procedures.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy, because it was very low safety significance (Green) and was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2019-00155.
Welding Programmatic Issue Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events
Green NCV 05000368/2019001-02 Open/Closed
[H.5] - Work Management 71111.08P The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, Control of Special Processes, for a failure to establish measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements.
Description:
The inspectors reviewed the licensees Weld Program Document EN-DC-328, Entergy Nuclear Welding Program, Revision 4, and the associated procedures. The inspectors noted that licensee Procedure CEP-WP-003, Qualification and Control of Welders, Revision 2, requires that all welders shall be qualified in accordance with the applicable construction code, qualification code, and any supplemental requirements contained in engineering and licensing documents. In addition, licensee Procedure CEP-WP-004, Control and Documentation of Welding Activities, Revision 4, requires the following of the welding supervisor:
1. Assign qualified welders to welding activities after determining a welders qualification
status by reviewing the Welder Qualification and Continuity Report;
2. Review the welding package with assigned welders during pre-job briefings;
3. Provide an appropriate level of direction and oversight to welders while performing
welding activities;
4. Review the welding package including the referenced welding process specifications
with the assigned welder(s) during the pre-job brief;
5. Ensure that the qualification status of assigned welders is verified during the pre-job
brief using an up-to-date welder.
The welder/lead welder is instructed to maintain cognizance of his/her qualifications using the Welder Qualification and Continuity Report, which is issued by the site welding engineer in accordance with Procedure CEP-WP-003.
In accordance with licensee Procedure CEP-WP-005, Control and Issuance of Welding Material, Revision 1, the site welding coordinator ensures that welding material is controlled and issued in accordance with applicable procedures, and provides training to welders, issue station attendants, and personnel authorized to approve weld material requisitions. This procedure also requires that the welding supervisor assign welders to welding activities and determine the correct welding material to be used based on review of the applicable weld procedure, determine a welder's qualification status prior to requisitioning welding material from the issue station, and initiate weld material requisitions or authorizes welders to initiate their own weld material requisitions for assigned welding activities. The weld material request approver approves weld material requisitions prior to requisition of welding material from issue stations.
Notwithstanding these welding program requirements, the following adverse trends and conditions were noted by inspectors:
- On September 16, 2018, Unit 2 main feedwater train B drain line valve failed at weld FW-9C2, resulting in a steam leak upstream of drain valves 2FW-1005A/B. The valve had been replaced during the recent refueling outage in 2017. The failure resulted in a manual trip and unplanned outage to complete repairs. The licensees investigation determined there was evidence of poor welding practices, including grinding on the pipe and filing directly below weld FW-9C2. Personnel had not followed Fleet General Welding Standard CEP-WP-GWS-1, General Welding Standard ASME/ANSI, Revision 3, since there was less than adequate worker oversight and direction, and a lack of welder proficiency testing.
- On January 24, 2016, Unit 1 reactor coolant loop A pump discharge valve vent line had a failure of the socket weld that was installed during the 2015 refueling outage.
The failure resulted in reactor coolant system pressure boundary leakage more than the technical specification allowed leak rate. The licensee inserted a manual trip and entered a forced outage to complete repairs. The licensee determined that the weld did not meet the requirements on the design drawing and that the quality control inspection should have identified the nonconforming weld.
- On three separate occasions, personnel who were not qualified welders in accordance with the licensees weld program, were assigned to work orders, obtained welding materials from issue stations, and welded on American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code components in the plant. The valves had to be removed and reinstalled using qualified welders.
As noted in these examples and contrary to the welding program requirements, personnel that were not qualified as welders in accordance with the licensees weld program procedures, were assigned to weld packages, issued welding material from the issue stations, and welded on ASME code components in the plant on multiple occasions. In addition, quality assurance personnel failed to identify rejectable indications on two welds that resulted in the failure of the welds and shutdown of the reactor to repair. During the licensees root cause analysis for the failed welds, which was performed under Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2018-01846, the licensee noted that maintenance leadership did not recognize the impacts of not having a site welding coordinator/supervisor and that this condition was previously noted in Adverse Condition Analysis (ACA) CR-ANO-2-2017-05335, which contained a corrective action to: Identify and designate a full-time Entergy employee as the Site Welding Coordinator to assume the responsibilities from the currently designated contractor. This was an opportunity for the licensee to detect and avert these deficiencies in the welding program.
Corrective Action(s): The plant was shutdown and repairs were made. A review of the welding program was performed and a program improvement plan was implemented.
Corrective Action Reference(s): CR-ANO-1-2018-03567, CR-ANO-1-2018-03729, CR-ANO-2-2016-01071
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to establish measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements is a performance deficiency.
Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone. It adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, personnel not qualified as welders in accordance with the licensees weld program procedures were assigned to complete weld packages, issued welding material from the issue stations, and welded on ASME code components in the plant on multiple occasions. In addition, quality assurance personnel failed to identify rejectable indications on two welds that resulted in the failure of the weld and shutdown of the reactor to repair. Furthermore, the inspectors determined that this was a programmatic issue since multiple departments and multiple levels of workers and management were responsible for the inadequate measures, which included procedures, training, and oversight, to assure that welding and nondestructive testing were controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, Significance Determination of Reactor Inspection Findings for At - Power Situations. The inspectors reviewed the initiating events screening questions in Exhibit 1 and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because after a reasonable assessment of degradation the leak would not have exceeded the reactor coolant system leak rate for a small-break loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) and the leak would not have affected other systems used to mitigate a LOCA (e.g., an interfacing system LOCA).
Cross-cutting Aspect: H.5 - Work Management: The organization implements a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. The work process includes the identification and management of risk commensurate to the work and the need for coordination with different groups or job activities. Specifically, the organization failed to implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety was the overriding priority.
Enforcement:
Violation: Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion IX, Control of Special Processes, requires, in part, that the licensee establish measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements. Contrary to the above, between March 2017, and October 2018, the licensee failed to maintain measures to assure that welding and nondestructive testing were controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements.
Specifically, the measures implemented by the licensee failed to prevent personnel who were not qualified as welders in accordance with the licensees weld program procedures from being assigned to weld packages, being issued welding material from the issue stations, and welding on ASME code components in the plant on multiple occasions. In addition, quality assurance personnel failed to identify rejectable indications on two welds that resulted in the failure of the weld and shutdown of the reactor to repair.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Failure to Take Timely Corrective Actions for a Previously Identified Deficient Condition Associated with Bussmann HKA Fuse Holder Caps Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events
Green FIN 05000313/2019001-03 Closed
[H.5] - Work Management 71152 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding associated with the licensees failure to take timely corrective actions for potential failures identified through industry operating experience. Specifically, the licensee identified a failure mode of Bussmann Model HKA fuse holder caps through industry operating experience and through the corrective action program, determined that it was applicable to ANO, and created work orders to replace the susceptible fuse holder caps. However, these work orders were assigned the lowest possible priority in the work control system. An actual failure of a fuse cap occurred in the integrated control system (ICS) which went undetected, and later prevented a runback from initiating when two out of three condensate pumps were no longer running. This resulted in the plant tripping instead of running back to 40 percent power.
Description:
On December 18, 2018, the licensee was conducting Baker testing on the train A main chiller motor (VCH-1A) for Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Unit 1. While restoring from the Baker testing, an electric arc occurred while removing a voltage test probe from the negative phase sequence relay in switchgear cubicle A-112 (unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the nonvital 4160 volt A1 bus). The arc caused fuses in this circuit to open to protect the control power transformer for the A1 bus. The resulting under voltage condition caused the unit auxiliary feeder breaker to A1 (A-112) to trip and de-energize the A1 bus.
The loss of the A1 bus caused a loss of power to the 4160 volt safety bus A3, causing the automatic start of the red train emergency diesel generator, which restored power to the A3 bus. The A1 bus did not initially transfer to the startup 1 transformer because the main generator was still on line. When the A1 bus de-energized, the A and C condensate pumps de-energized. With only one condensate pump running, a Loss of 2 Condensate Pump ICS runback should have actuated. However, the ICS runback feature did not actuate due the latent failure of the Bussmann Model HKA fuse cap. The plant ultimately tripped on high reactor coolant system pressure and operators safely stabilized the plant in Mode 3. The inspectors concluded that the plant trip was a direct result of the Bussmann Model HKA fuse cap failure, and not as a result of the loss of power to the A1 bus.
The inspectors noted that Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2017-00241 was generated by the licensee on January 23, 2017, to address the operating experience related to Bussmann HKA fuse holder circuits. This condition report states, Multiple instances have been documented within the nuclear industry regarding plant trips, runbacks, and phantom SASS (Smart Automatic Signal Selector) mis-match events resulting from aged, degraded Bussmann HKA cap/light indicators. The spring in the body of the orange fuse cap/indicating lamp is prone to recession into the body of the cap as it is compressed and relaxed repeatedly throughout its life. As a result, the fuse may become loose within the fuse holder, and intermittently open the circuit that it is used for. The 2017 condition report directed the generation of work orders to address all Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap applications within both ANO Unit 1 and Unit 2 to inspect and/or replace Bussmann HKA fuse holder caps. Although Work Order (WO) 494514 was generated to replace the Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap that failed in the ICS system, the work order was not implemented, and the fuse holder cap was not replaced until after Unit 1 had tripped in December 2018 via WO 514989.
Additionally, the inspectors noted that a failure of a Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap occurred prior to this event and was documented in Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2018-00044, dated January 4, 2018, associated with the TT-2679 B feedwater loop temperature transmitter for non-nuclear instrumentation (NNI) cabinet Y. The Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap failure mechanism for the transmitter was identical to the Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap failure mechanism for the ICS system, and to the operating experience discussed in Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2017-00241 (aged/degraded cap spring). The licensee successfully replaced the Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap for the transmitter via WO 492254-01, restoring the transmitter to service. Although the January 2018 condition report made reference to the January 2017 condition report, no action was taken to consider the timeliness of the previous corrective action plan.
The inspectors determined that none of the work orders generated by Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2017-00241, which addressed all safety-related and nonsafety-related Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap applications within both units at ANO, were implemented prior to December 18, 2018. Instead, these work orders were prioritized with the lowest priority that exists in the work management system.
The inspectors concluded that the licensee failed to recognize the potential risk associated with failure of some of the fuse holders of concern. In particular, fuse holders that could fail such that the failure would not be recognized created a latent condition. In the case of the ICS failure, the latent condition would only be recognized during an event, and the failure would (and did) prevent a design feature from mitigating the severity of the event.
The inspectors identified that Procedure EN-LI-102, Corrective Action Program, paragraph 5.9.1.a provides the following; Responsibility for monitoring and reporting on the status of WOs that have CRs/CAs closed to them resides with the production department.
This monitoring is to ensure timely correction of the originally identified condition.
Periodically, typically at least monthly, report to the PRG the status of WOs with CRs/CAs closed to them. The focus of this report should be the monitoring for timely resolution of those work orders per Procedure EN-WM-100. The PRG may require additional details for any WOs not completed in a timely manner. Procedure EN-WM-100, Work Request (WR)
Generation, Screening and Classification, states the following; Work Requests and Work Orders are assigned a priority based upon the significance of the condition identified.
Contrary to these statements, the licensee failed to take timely corrective actions for a previously identified deficient condition to inspect and/or replace the Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap in the ICS system, and did not assign the appropriate priority based upon the significance of the condition identified. This led to a plant trip and challenged safety-related systems.
Corrective Action(s): The licensee replaced the degraded fuse holder cap within the ICS system. The licensee also checked for proper voltage in the C46-1 panel to ensure the health of the eight fuse holder caps that directly power auxiliary relays for plant runback features. All eight were verified to be providing the appropriate voltage.
Corrective Action Reference(s): CR-ANO-1-2018-05360
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to take timely corrective actions for operating experience that was applicable to the plant associated with Bussmann HKA fuse holder caps is a performance deficiency.
Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, the licensees failure to replace old Bussmann HKA fuse holder caps with a known age-related failure mechanism in a timely manner resulted in the failure of the Loss of 2 Condensate Pump ICS runback feature that was designed to avoid a plant trip. The loss of power to the A1 bus combined with the nonfunctional runback resulted in a plant trip.
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012, the inspectors determined that the finding had very low safety significance (Green) because it did cause a reactor trip by itself, but did not cause a loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition.
Cross-cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with work management because the licensee failed to implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. Specifically, the implementation of the work orders was not prioritized commensurate with the safety significance of the systems within which Bussmann HKA fuse holder caps are used in accordance with Procedure EN-WM-100, Work Request (WR)
Generation, Screening and Classification. In general, those systems which would not failsafe if a Bussmann HKA fuse holder cap failed, should have been identified during the risk evaluation process, the work order prioritization process, and the work management process.
Enforcement:
Inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this finding. Specifically, the failure of the ICS fuse holder and the earlier failures did not involves safety-related or quality systems.
Failure to Adequately Pre-Plan Maintenance that Affected Safety-Related Equipment Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Initiating Events
Green NCV 05000313/2019001-04 Closed
[H.12] - Avoid Complacency 71153 The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green finding and associated non-cited violation of Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 1, Technical Specifications 5.4.1.a, for the licensees failure to properly preplan maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment.
Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the A-112 unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus, which resulted in the loss of the nonsafety-related 4160 volt A1 bus and the automatic start of emergency diesel generator 1 to provide power to the safety-related 4160 volt A3 bus.
Description:
On December 18, 2018, the licensee was conducting Baker testing on the train A main chiller motor. While restoring from the Baker testing, an electric arc occurred while removing a voltage test probe from the A-112 unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus. The current from the arc opened fuses that caused an under voltage protective relay to open the unit auxiliary feeder breaker to A-1 (A-112), de-energizing the A1 bus. The loss of the A1 bus caused a loss of power to the 4160 volt safety bus A3, causing the automatic start of the emergency diesel generator (EDG) 1, which restored power to the A3 bus. The A1 bus did not initially transfer to the startup one transformer because the main generator was still on line.
Due to an unrelated fault in the integrated control system (ICS), the plant did not immediately run-back to 40 percent reactor power as designed and tripped instead. The inspectors determined that the loss of the A1 bus did not directly cause a reactor trip by itself; therefore, the loss of the A1 bus and the plant trip were evaluated as separate events. Other than the fault in the ICS system, the plant responded as designed during the trip, and the operators safely stabilized the plant in Mode 3.
The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2018-05311 and performed an apparent cause evaluation. The apparent cause evaluation identified several causal factors which contributed to the loss of the A1 bus.
The individual tasked with removing the voltage test probe was not the individual briefed for installing or removing test equipment from the A1 bus. Also, the pre-job risk review focused mainly on the possibility of losing the opposite train main chiller and the potential for a plant trip due to loss of cooling water to reactor building cooled components and did not consider the possibility that the A1 bus may also be adversely impacted. Additionally, as recently as September 2018, and additionally in prior correspondence, the licensee was evaluating the replacement of terminal block screws with threaded banana jack adapters, which would allow testing and maintenance to be performed more safely and efficiently.
The inspectors identified that the licensees on-line risk assessment Procedure EN-WM-104, On Line Risk Assessment, Revision 18, addresses work with the potential for an electrical transient, including blown fuses. Specifically, Procedure EN-WM-104, Attachment 3, Integrated Risk, step 10, defines work with the potential for an electrical transient to include work being performed on energized conductors, lifting energized electrical leads, active troubleshooting in a live AC/DC circuit where a short, daisy chain, blown fuse, open circuit could cause unwanted system actuation and/or isolation. Although the operations impact statement mentioned work being performed within the A-112 unit auxiliary feeder breaker to A-1, there was no mention of any adverse impact to the A1 bus as a result of the electrical maintenance being performed.
Corrective Action Reference: CR-ANO-1-2018-05311
Corrective Actions: The licensee implemented corrective actions which centered around adding more oversight of all plant electrical work activities, testing, calibration, or trouble shooting that requires use of non-engineered test points, jumper installations, or lifted leads while the system is still in service, and if the actions have a potential to cause a plant trip, plant transient, or entry into a limiting condition for operation. The corrective actions included developing work orders and scheduling the installation of engineering test points during bus outages and safety system panel outage windows.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to properly pre-plan maintenance involving the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the A-112 unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus which had the potential to impact safety-related equipment is a performance deficiency.
Screening: The performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, the licensee failed to recognize that the use of voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the A-112 unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus created the potential to cause a plant transient that challenged safety-related equipment.
The loss of the A1 bus resulted in a temporary loss of the safety-related A3 bus, which was reenergized by EDG 1.
Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012, and determined that the finding screened to Green because it did not by itself cause a reactor trip or the loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition.
Cross-cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with avoiding complacency because the licensee failed to recognize and plan for the possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful outcomes. Specifically, the licensee relied upon past successful outcomes, which resulted in not adequately evaluating risk or implementing required risk management actions, such as the installation of engineered test points, thorough review of planned activities, and a pre-job brief for all participating personnel.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for Unit 1 requires, in part, that written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures in Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements, Revision 2, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, Section 9.a, states, in part, that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly preplanned and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings to the circumstances. Procedure EN-WM-104, On-Line Risk, step 4.4, states the following: Perform integrated risk assessments of emergent equipment out of service/unplanned maintenance conditions as soon as practical utilizing Attachment 3, Integrated Risk. Apply a risk informed approach to mitigation of emergent conditions and prioritize recovery of plant systems utilizing Attachment 3, Integrated Risk. Attachment 3, Integrated Risk, step 10, defines work with the potential for an electrical transient to include work being performed on energized conductors, lifting hot leads, active troubleshooting in a live AC/DC circuit where a short, daisy chain, blown fuse, open circuit could cause unwanted system actuation and/or isolation.
Contrary to the above, on December 18, 2018, the licensee failed to properly preplan maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment. Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate the risk of using voltage test probes installed in the negative phase sequence relay within the A-112 unit auxiliary transformer feeder breaker to the A1 bus as required by Procedure EN-WM-104, Attachment 3. This condition led to a plant transient that challenged safety-related equipment. The loss of the A1 bus, which resulted in a temporary loss of the safety-related A3 bus, was reenergized by EDG 1.
Disposition: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy, because it was of very low safety significance (Green) and was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2018-05311.
EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS
The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.
- On January 4, 2019, the inspector presented the inservice inspection results to Mr. J. Kirkpatrick, General Manager Plant Operations, and other members of the licensee staff.
- On April 3, 2019, the inspector presented the quarterly resident inspector inspection results to Mr. R. Anderson, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff.
