REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status

Unit 1 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. On July 3, 2013, power was decreased to 90 percent to start recirculation pump 15. Power was returned to 100 percent later that day. On July 8, Unit 1 was shut down due to elevated unidentified leakage in the primary containment. Following identification of the source of the leakage and the completion of repairs to the reactor water cleanup vent valve 33-61, Unit 1 returned to 100 percent power on July 12. On July 13, power was reduced to 75 percent for a rod pattern adjustment and later that day returned to 100 percent power. On September 9, Unit 1 decreased power to 90 percent to perform turbine stop valve testing and remove recirculation pump 13 from service.

Reactor power was returned to 100 percent later that day. Unit 1 remained at full power for the remainder for the inspection period.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. On July 19, 2013, reactor power was decreased to 98 percent due to high condensate pump discharge header temperature. Power was returned to 100 percent later that day. On September 7, Unit 2 reduced power to 85

percent to conduct turbine stop valve testing, returning to full power that same day. On September 21, Unit 2 reduced power to 70 percent to perform a control rod pattern adjustment and scram time testing. Unit 2 returned to full power on September 22 and operated at full power for the remainder of the inspection period.

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors observed performance of surveillance tests and/or reviewed test data of selected risk-significant SSCs to assess whether test results satisfied TSs, the UFSAR, and CENG procedure requirements. The inspectors verified that test acceptance criteria were clear, tests demonstrated operational readiness and were consistent with design documentation, test instrumentation had current calibrations and the range and accuracy for the application, tests were performed as written, and applicable test prerequisites were satisfied. Upon test completion, the inspectors considered whether the test results supported that equipment was capable of performing the required safety functions. The inspectors reviewed the following surveillance tests:

Unit 1, N1-ISP-201-501, Type 'B' Containment Isolation Airlock Door Leak Rate Test on July 10, 2013 Unit 1, N1-ST-Q20, Reactor Building Heating, Cooling, and Ventilation System Test on July 31, 2013 Unit 1, N1-ST-M4B, Emergency Diesel Generator 103 and PB 103 Operability Test on August 5, 2013 Unit 1, N1-ST-M1B, Liquid Poison Pump 12 Operability Test on August 26, 2013 (inservice test) Unit 1, N1-ST-M6, Core Spray Keep Fill Verification Test on September 24, 2013

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

Cornerstone:

Emergency Preparedness 1EP4 Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes (71114.04

- 1 sample)

a. Inspection Scope

The Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response headquarters staff performed an in-office review of the latest revisions of various emergency plan implementing procedures and the emergency plan located under ADAMS accession number ML13155A006.

CENG staff determined that in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q), the changes made in the revisions resulted in no reduction in the effectiveness of the plan and that the revised plan continued to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, "Emergency Planning and Preparedness of Production and Utilization Facilities." The NRC review was not documented in a safety evaluation report and did not constitute approval of licensee-generated changes; therefore, this revision is subject to future inspection.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1EP6 Drill Evaluation (71114.06

- 1 sample)

Training Observation

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors observed a simulator training evolution for Unit 1 licensed operators on September 3, 2013, which required emergency plan implementation by an operations crew. CENG staff planned for this evolution to be evaluated and included in performance indicator (PI) data regarding drill and exercise performance. The inspectors observed event classification and notification activities performed by the crew. The inspectors also attended the post-evolution critique for the scenario. The focus of the inspectors' activities was to note any weaknesses and deficiencies in the crew's performance and ensure that CENG evaluators noted the same issues and entered them into the CAP.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

4OA1 Performance Indicator Verification

.1 Safety System Functional Failures (2

samples)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors sampled CENG's submittals for the Safety System Functional Failures PIs for Unit 1 and Unit 2 for the period of July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2013. To determine the accuracy of the PI data reported during those periods, inspectors used definitions and guidance contained in the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Revision 7, and NUREG-1022, "Event Reporting Guidelines 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73." The inspectors reviewed CENG's operator narrative logs, operability assessments, maintenance rule records, CRs, event reports, and NRC integrated inspection reports to validate the accuracy of the submittals.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Mitigating Systems Performance Index (10 samples)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed CENG's submittal of the Mitigating Systems Performance Index for the following systems for the period of July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2013

Unit 1 and Unit 2 Emergency AC Power System (MS06) High-Pressure Injection System (MS07) Heat Removal System (MS08) Residual Heat Removal System (MS09) Cooling Water System (MS10)

To determine the accuracy of the PI data reported during those periods, the inspectors used definitions and guidance contained in NEI 99-02. The inspectors also reviewed

CENG's operator narrative logs, CR, mi tigating systems performance index basis document, event reports, and NRC integrated ins pection reports to validate the accuracy of the submittals.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution

.1 Routine Review of Problem Identification and Resolution Activities

a. Inspection Scope

As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Problem Identification and Resolution," the

inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify that CENG personnel entered issues into the CAP at an appropriate threshold, gave adequate attention to timely corrective actions, and identified and addressed adverse trends. In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the CAP.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Annual Sample:

Maintenance Rule Implementation Assessment

a. Inspection Scope

The inspector's maintenance rule implementation review focused on CENG staff's screening of CRs for maintenance rule applicability, incorporation of operating experience (OE) into the maintenance rule, timing of maintenance rule evaluations once the threshold for (a)(1) was met, and balancing unavailability and unreliability. The inspectors reviewed CRs, system health reports, the (a)(1) database, and interviewed the maintenance rule coordinator and system engineers in order to assess if CENG was implementing the program in accordance with CNG-AM-1.01-1023, "Maintenance Rule Program," Revision 00201, and CNG-CA-1.01-1010, "Use of Operating Experience,"

Revision 01000.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings were identified.

The inspectors reviewed CRs that were screened for maintenance rule applicability for

three systems (AC electric power, control room HVAC, and EDG room ventilation). In general, the CRs were screened appropriately; however, there were two CRs in which the inspectors were unable to conclude that the CENG staff's determination that maintenance rule not applicable was correct until CENG staff provided additional

information.

The inspectors determined that OE was being incorporated into the maintenance rule through the system engineers' health reports, maintenance rule manager software, and cause evaluations when required. The inspector's review of the OE sections of several systems in the maintenance rule manager software indicated that they were being maintained up-to-date with applicable OE.

The inspectors reviewed 24 systems that were currently in (a)(1) status and determined that (a)(1) evaluations were typically done in a timely manner. The average time to make an (a)(1) determination was 35 days with a range of 0 to 78 days.

.3 Annual Sample:

Corrective Actions to Address Repetitive Failures of the Radiation Monitoring Equipment

a. Inspection Scope

Units 1 and 2 have experienced repetitive failures of several radiation monitoring systems between August 2011 and August 2013. The four effluent monitors with the highest number of hours of unavailability were selected for a detailed sample review. The four effluent radiation monitors and associated number of CRs that were reviewed included:

Unit 1 off-gas effluent monitoring system (OGEMS) (6 CRs)

Unit 1 service water (SW) radiation monitors PMP-72-461 and PMP-72-462 (20 CRs)

Unit 2 SW radiation monitors 2SWP*CAB146A and 2SWP*CAB146B (52 CRs)

Unit 2 radwaste/reactor building vent radiation monitor (20 CRs)

From August 4 through 9, 2013, the inspectors performed an in-depth review of the events in these CRs to assess CENG staff's actions for initiating corrective and/or compensatory actions, timeliness, and addressing adverse trends. To perform this review, the inspectors conducted walkdowns of these radiation monitors, interviewed plant personnel, reviewed WOs, and associated apparent cause evaluations (ACEs). In addition, system health reports for the radiation monitoring system and associated maintenance rule reports were also reviewed.

b. Findings and Observations

No findings were identified.

After identifying an adverse trend in radiation monitor availability and reliability, CENG personnel initiated its first generic CR on radiation monitors for Units 1 and 2 on January 16, 2013, and the second CR on February 27, 2013. These two CRs resulted in two ACEs. The first one was to investigate maintenance and engineering corrective actions for the effluent radiation monitors (CR-2013-000434), and the second was to investigate human performance impacts on equipment reliability of these instruments (CR-2013-001613). These two ACEs appeared to be thorough and included the extent of condition, common causes, and action plans to prevent recurrence. Based on these evaluations, CENG staff concluded that there were a number of system design improvements that could be made to improve reliability of the effluent monitoring systems. It was concluded that there had been errors assigning the appropriate priority (priority two or three instead of priority four) on the WOs resulting in untimely completion of some of the radiation monitoring equipment repairs. Briefings were conducted by CENG personnel with the appropriate staff to indicate the importance of the radiation monitoring instruments relative to event classification in the emergency plan. In addition, training was also provided on the steps that should be taken to expedite these instruments return to service.

Listed below are summaries of the corrective actions CENG personnel developed to improve system availability and reliability for the four radiation monitors of concern:

Unit 1 Off-Gas Effluent Monitoring System

Corrective action (CA)-2012-004479 was initiated to develop and execute a troubleshooting plan to isolate the cause for the noise intrusion on the Unit 1 stack radiation monitor. CENG is planning to implement the electrical troubleshooting plan via WO C92073592. No unplanned unavailability has occurred on the OGEMS radiation monitor since April 2013. CENG plans to monitor system performance until corrective actions are completed.

Unit 1 Service Water Radiation Monitor

CR-2011-006930 was written to revise the procedures for biocide/chemical injections and sample line flushes to reduce the impact of both biofouling and zebra mussels on the SW system. In particular, chemistry procedure N1-CTP-V945, "Service Water Zebra Mussel Treatment," Revision 01600, was revised to notify the Unit 1 operations department of a requirement to perform N1-OP-18, "Service Water System," Revision 03000, sections 8 and 9, daily during biocide treatment and for 21 days following completion of the activity. Preventive maintenance surveillance N1149646 was established to track this operations activity in January 2012. The operations department has been performing these flushes daily following two biocide treatments conducted in

2013.

CA-2012-000076 was initiated to correct unexpected radiation monitor process annunciator H1-4-5 alarms of the SW radiation monitor. The system and central processing unit circuit cards were replaced in January 2013. No spurious annunciator alarms have occurred since completion of this maintenance activity.

CR-2012-008164 was initiated to perform a maintenance rule 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(1)evaluation for Unit 1 SW radiation monitor because the functional failure performance criteria was exceeded. On October 2, 2012, the plant health committee approved the system performance goals and action plan.

CR-2012-002176 investigated the root cause for the repeated low flow alarms on the SW radiation monitor pump. It was determined that the installed pump, PMP-72-462, was being operated outside the manufacturer pump curve and was likely being operated near the pump's shutoff head. ECP 13-000167, "Unit 1 Service Water Radiation Monitor Sample Pumps are Over-Sized Resulting in Premature Failure,"

was processed and has resulted in the replacement of the PMP-72-462 pump with a smaller capacity centrifugal pump on June 28, 2013. No unplanned unavailability has occurred on the Unit 1 SW radiation monitor since June 2013. Corrective actions appear to be effective.

Unit 2 Service Water Radiation Monitor CR-2012-011225 was initiated to perform a maintenance rule 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(1)evaluation for Unit 2 SW radiation monitors, 2-RMS-F11. On January 29, 2013, the plant health committee approved the system performance goals and action plan. The following corrective actions from this plan are listed below along with their current status:

Replace the remaining piping in accordance with ECP 12-000565, "2SWP*CAB146B Replace Carbon Steel Pipe to Stainless Steel" and WO C91883844. This action was completed on April 1, 2013.

Initiate temporary sodium bisulfate injection until repairs can be completed on the permanent chemical treatment equipment per WO C92156031 (CA-2013-000702). The temporary equipment for injecting the chemical to SW was completed in April 2013. Injection of chemicals into SW was reinitiated on April 22, 2013. Replace the current flow switch design with a design less susceptible to fouling and scaling. ECP 13-000140, "Replacement of the Existing Resistance-Type Flow Switch with a New Magnetic Flow Switch" is projected to be completed by December 31, 2013, as identified in CR-2013-001810.

The inspectors noted that one of the a(1) action plan items, chemical treatments, was

not performed on the SW system for over 7 months, from September 2012 to April 22, 2013, due to a leak in one of the chemical injection tanks. Unavailability problems continue as evidenced by a recent reactor operating event notification report number 49391. This notification indicated that the SW digital radiation monitor received a low sample flow alarm and was nonfunctional on September 28 and 29, 2013.

In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Manual , this does not constitute a violation of 10 CFR 50.65.(a)(1) since an action plan was developed and was being implemented and monitoring goals in accordance with the 50.65 (a)(1). CENG initiated CR-2013-005232 to address the need to create PIs for ke y system chemical parameters to assist in more optimal scheduling of chemical treatments and flushes on the SW system. Corrective actions are not yet completed.

Unit 2 Radwaste/Reactor Building Vent Radiation Monitor Several instrument calibrations failures have occurred on this instrument due to issues with the calibration equipment associated with this monitor. CA-2013-000226 was initiated to create a preventive maintenance surveillance to periodically inspect the check source insertion assembly for wear, re-orient steel roll pin in the check source assembly so that it does not contact the aluminum guide tube, and replace the aluminum guide tube with an equivalent sized steel guide tube. These inspections and modifications will be completed during the next monitor surveillance currently scheduled to be completed in November 2013.

A design issue for this flow sensor was identified and documented on March 10, 2009.

In 2011, ECP 11-000140, "Install a Separate Flow Sensor Array on the Radwaste Vent Ducting" was initiated. These flow sensors were designed to establish representative flow sample rates for the plant configuration when the RB ventilation flow is isolated or when the RB ventilation fans are not available.

CR-2013-006249 identified the degraded flow sensing array modification was not being tracked properly and developed corrective actions which included long-term asset management. On August 26, 2013, this modification was approved for conceptual design work. CENG initiated CR-2013-006249 to track completion of this modification.

The inspectors noted that the Unit 2 radwaste/RB vent radiation monitor was nonfunctional for 2,731 hours0.00846 days <br />0.203 hours <br />0.00121 weeks <br />2.781455e-4 months <br /> between August 2011 and August 2013. A non safety related, low risk system is only required to monitor for reliability and not required to monitor for system unavailability; however, the high level of system unavailability has resulted in a reduction of EP staff's assessment capability. Although 10 CFR 50.65 a(2)performance criteria were met and no maintenance rule functional failures were identified by CENG staff, on two occasions CENG staff made reports to the NRC as required by 10 CFR 50.72 (b)(3)(xiii) due to unavailability of these instruments. This included reactor operating event notification reports 49127 and 49176 for loss of radwaste/RB vent gaseous effluent radiation monitor that occurred in June and July 2013. No findings were identified since compensatory sampling of the gaseous effluents occurred as required. CR-2013-008833 was written to address this observation.

4OA3 Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

(Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000220/2013-001-00: Emergency Condenser 11 High Steam Flow Isolation Instrumentation Loss During Plant Startup

On May 14, 2013, at 11:45 a.m., while Unit 1 was in the startup mode of reactor plant operation with reactor power at 3 percent, channel 11 high steam flow instrumentation for emergency condenser loop 11 alarmed due to a gross failure trip. The gross failure trip is a design feature of the instrument loop that monitors the integrity of the emergency condenser piping system. The failure of the channel 11 high steam flow instrumentation concurrently with channel 12, which had failed earlier in the day at 8:40 a.m., resulted in the loss of emergency condenser system loop 11 isolation capability on high steam flow.

In response to the instrument failure, operators declared emergency condenser system loop 11 inoperable, isolated the system, and entered plant TS 3.1.3.b, which required operators to return the system to service within 7 days when the reactor is critical and reactor coolant system temperature is greater than 212 degree Fahrenheit. Emergency condenser system loop 11 was declared operable on May 15 when the cause for the gross failure trip signal and inadequately filled sensing lines was resolved.

A CENG investigation determined that the cause of the event was leakage from the shared high-pressure sensing line for transmitters DPT-36-06C and DPT-36-06D. The suspected leakage path was seat leakage from instrument blowdown valves VLV-36-374 and VLV-8-172. CENG staff's corrective actions include replacement of the suspect blowdown isolation valves during the next refueling outage and enhanced monitoring of the output signals on the high steam flow instruments to ensure the sensing lines remain full. The inspectors reviewed the LER and determined that no findings or violations of NRC requirements were identified. This LER is closed

4OA5 Other Activities

The inspectors independently verified that CENG staff's proposed interim actions would perform their intended function for flooding mitigation.

Visual inspection of the flood protection feature was performed if the flood protection feature was relevant. External visual inspection for indications of degradation that would prevent its credited function from being performed was performed.

Reasonable simulation, if applicable, to the site.

Flood protection feature functionality was determined using either visual observation or by review of other documents.

The inspectors verified that issues identified were entered into CENG's CAP.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.4 Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) at Operating Plants (IP 60855)

a. Inspection Scope

(1 partial sample)

Region I materials inspectors conducted a follow up inspection to review CENG staff's action following a hydrogen deflagration during ISFSI loading operations using NRC Inspection Procedure (IP) 60855.1, "Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation at Operating Plants."

On August 14, 2013, Unit 2 experienced a hydrogen deflagration during ISFSI loading operations (CR-2013-006840). A dry shielded canister (DSC) filled with spent fuel assemblies was on the refuel floor and the DSC inner cover was in the process of being welded in place by an automated welding system. During the welding evolution, hydrogen concentration built up above the lower explosive limit and the deflagration occurred. CENG staff completed a technical evaluation and concluded that spent fuel within the cask was not impacted and that the cask remained within UFSAR specifications.

The ISFSI inspectors performed an on-site inspection August 26 through 28, 2013. The inspection consisted of interviews with CENG personnel and contractor personnel and observations of ISFSI equipment configuration on the refuel floor. The inspectors reviewed documentation to verify compliance with the conditions of the general license, certificate of compliance, TSs, and the UFSAR. The inspectors also reviewed CRs, WOs, and procedures. The inspectors reviewed CENG staff's evaluations and immediate follow-up actions to assure that CENG staff implemented appropriate compensatory and corrective actions prior to resuming ISFSI welding and loading operations.

b. Findings

This inspection remains open at the end of this inspection period while CENG staff completes their ACE and the inspectors have the opportunity to review CENG staff's evaluation and long-term corrective actions to address the event.

4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit

Exit Meeting

On October 24, 2013, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. Christopher Costanzo, Site Vice President, and other members of the NMPNS staff. The inspectors verified that no propriety information was retained by the inspectors or documented in this report.
