SUMMARY

IR 05000416/2016003

0 7/01/2016 - 0 9/30/2016, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station

Equipment Alignment, Heat Sink Performance , Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspection activities described in this report were performed between July 1, 2016, and September 30, 2016

, by the resident inspectors at Grand Gulf Nuclear Station and inspectors from the NRC's Region IV office and other NRC offices.

Four findings of very low safety significance (Green) are documented in this report. Three of these findings involved violations of NRC requirements. Further, inspectors documented a licensee-identified violation of very low safety significance in this report. The significance of inspection findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red), which is determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process." Their cross-cutting aspects are determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0310, "Aspects within the Cross-Cutting Areas." Violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG

-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process."

Cornerstone: Initiating Events

Green.

The inspectors identified a finding for the licensee's failure to aggressively and fully communicate an operational decision-making instruction implementation action plan, particularly the trigger points and those actions if trigger points are exceeded, to the appropriate operations shift personnel via operations management in accordance with Procedure EN-OP-111, "Operational Decision-Making Issue Process

." Specifically, on July 3, 2016, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station operations management created an operational decision-making instruction, but did not communicate to onshift operators the trigger points and actions associated with uncontrolled power oscillations that occurred on June 17, 2016. The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions by communicating the operational decision-making instruction trigger points to all onshift operators, as well as creating an offnormal event procedure. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-2016-06032. The failure to follow Procedure EN-OP-111 to aggressively and fully communicate an operational decision-making instruction implementation action plan, particularly the trigger points and those actions if trigger points are exceeded, to the appropriate operations shift personnel via o perations management was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and 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, operations management did not communicate operational decision-making instructio n trigger points and actions to ensure appropriate operator response to limit the liklihood of events that upset plant stability, similar to the reactor pressure and power oscillations that occurred on June 17, 2016

. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, "Initiating Events Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not cause a reactor trip.

The inspectors determined that the finding has a change management cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because licensee management failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee failed to use the operational decision-making instruction process effectively such that the operational decision-making instruction was communicated and could be implemented as intended [H.3]. (Section 4OA2.2.

3)

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

The inspector s identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," which states, in part, "conditions adverse to quality are promptly identified and corrected." Specifically, prior to April 2012, the licensee did not correct identified deficiencies affecting work order instructions and acceptance criteria to perform surveillance requirements associated with safety-related fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers. In response to this issue, the licensee revised the associated procedure to provide appropriate quantitative and qualitative acceptance criteria. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-07257. The failure to promptly correct procedures and work order instructions used to perform program testing of safety-related heat exchangers was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee did not promptly correct identified inadequate work order instructions or acceptance criteria to perform surveillance requirements associated with safety-related fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers from April 2012 until September 30, 2016. The inspector s determined that it was reasonable for the licensee to be able to foresee and prevent occurrence this deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., fuel damage). Specifically, the inspector s concluded that without appropriate quantitative and qualitative acceptance criteria, the availability, reliability, and capability of the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers would not be effectively ensured through the performance of surveillance requirements. The inspector s evaluated this finding using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1

- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." The inspector s determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not represent a loss of a safety function of a system or a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time, and did not screen potentially risk significant due to external events. The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance, documentation, because the licensee did not create and maintain complete, accurate, and up-to-date documentation for the safety-related heat exchanger testing program [H.7]. (Section 1R07)

Green.

The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," for failure to promptly identify a condition adverse to quality

. Specifically, operations personnel failed to identify oscillations in the reactor core isolation cooling transmitter logic system during technical specification surveillance control panel walk-downs. This resulted in an automatic isolation of the reactor core isolation cooling system from its steam supply

. Approximately six hours after the isolation, maintenance personnel performed a flow transmitter system fill and vent

, and the system was returned to an operable condition. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-2016-03070. The failure to promptly identify oscillations in the reactor core isolation cooling transmitter logic system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affects the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, operations personnel failed to identify oscillations in the reactor core isolation cooling transmitter logic system, which resulted in an isolation and unavailability of the reactor core isolation cooling system. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system, or component, and did no t result in a loss of operability or functionality; did not represent a loss of system and/or function; did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time, or two separate safety systems out-of-service for longer than their technical specification allowed outage time; and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program.

In addition, the inspectors determined that the finding has a challenge the unknown cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee failed to stop when faced with uncertain conditions and evaluate and manage risk before proceeding. Specifically, when performing multiple sets of operator control panel walk-downs, which should have resulted in the identification of oscillations in the reactor core isolation cooling transmitter logic system, the operators failed to recognize and correlate that the small oscillations were an abnormal system condition and could lead to a reactor core isolation cooling system isolation [H.11]. (Section 1R04)

Green.

The inspectors reviewed a self-revealed, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for the failure to establish a procedure for combating malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system. Specifically, on June 17, 2016, operators combated a malfunction in the reactor pressure control system associated with an unexpected turbine stop valve closure without having appropriate procedure s. The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions by creating a standing order that gave clear guidance on how to control issues that cause oscillations, and has since created an offnormal event procedure for reactor pressure control system malfunctions. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-2016-04834. The failure to establish a procedure for combating malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, operators were combating a malfunction in the reactor pressure control system associated with an unexpected turbine stop valve closure without having a procedure. As a result, the operators were unable to reconcile the pressure control malfunction, did not manually scram the reactor, and ultimately caused an automatic reactor scram. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding resulted in themismanagement of reactivity by operators and required an evaluation using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix M , "Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria

." A senior reactor analyst performed an evaluation to bound the increase in core damage frequency of the finding. Based on the results of this evaluation, the final significance of the finding was determined to be very low safety significance (Green). In addition, the inspectors determined that the finding has an identification cross-cutting aspect within the problem identification and resolution area because the licensee failed to identify issues completely, accurately, and in a timely manner in accordance with the program. Specifically, the licensee failed to identify that they were missing an offnormal event procedure for malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system following a 2015 half scram that occurred while conducting the same testing as that which led to this event

[P.1]. (Section 4OA2.2.

Licensee-Identified Violations

A violation of very low safety significance that was identified by the licensee has been reviewed by the inspectors.

Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program.

This violation and associated corrective action tracking numbers are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

PLANT STATUS

Grand Gulf Nuclear Station began the inspection period in Mode 4.

On July 10, 2016, operators commenced power ascension, and on July 11, 2016, at 8 percent power, operators manually shut down the reactor due to a turbine bypass valves issue.

On July 16, 2016, operators commenced power ascension, and on July 24, 2016, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station reached 100 percent power.

On July 28, 2016, operators reduced power to 86 percent power to exercise control rod s to address an elevated leak rate issue. On July 29, 2016, operator s restored the plant to 100 percent power.

On September 8, 2016, operators commenced a reactor shutdown to Mode 4 to comply with technical specifications to replace the residual heat removal pump A due to a failed surveillance test. Grand Gulf Nuclear Station remained in Mode 4 at the end of the inspection period (See Preliminary Notification PNO

b. Findings

Introduction

. The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," for failure to promptly identify a condition adverse to quality

. Specifically, operations personnel failed to identify oscillations in the reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) transmitter logic system during technical specification surveillance control panel walk

-downs.

Description.

On March 26, 2016, a fill and vent of the RCIC transmitter logic fluid system was performed in accordance with Integrated Operating Instruction 03-1-01-1 , "Cold Shutdown to Generator to Carrying Minimum Load

," Revision 169. On March 29, 2016, following plant startup from a refueling outage, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (GGNS) received an automatic reactor scram due to improper current transformer ratio wiring on the B phase main transformer. During corrective maintenance activities GGNS remained in Mode 3 , with reactor pressure at approximately 300 pounds per square inch. After the repairs were made to the B phase main transformer, the plant was restarted on March 30, 2016. Since the plant remain ed in Mode 3 during the forced outage, with reactor pressure above 150 pounds per square inch, the RCIC system remained operable

, and plant personnel determined that another fill and vent was not needed. On April 1, 2016, at 6: 00 p.m., the main control room received a RCIC high steam line differential pressure alarm. The alarm immediately cleared.

Approximately four hours later, the main control room received a RCIC high steam line differential pressure alarm, and the RCIC system automatically isolated from its steam supply.

The observed plant response was consistent with conditions the inspectors identified through a review of operating experience that described instrumentation inaccuracies caused by noncondensible gases that le d to gas entrapment and voids post depressurization of the reactor.

The licensee determined that the isolation occurred due to oscillations in the RCIC transmitter.

The oscillations began to increase in magnitude starting on March 31, 2016, and became great enough to cause a RCIC high steam line differential pressure alarm on April 1, 2016

, at 6: 00 p.m. The alarm response instruction for this condition assumes that an isolation of the steam supply to the RCIC system takes places when this alarm comes in. However, a RCIC steam supply isolation did not take place

, and the alarm automatically cleared. Operations personnel incorrectly determined that the alarm was due to an annunciator circuit issue. The oscillations continued to increase in magnitude, and became great enough to cause a RCIC high steam line differential pressure alarm and automatic isolation on April 1, 2016

, at 10: 03 p.m. T he automatic isolation rendered the RCIC system inoperable which resulted in unplanned unavailability.

On April 2, 2016 , at 4: 15 a.m., m aintenance personnel completed the fill and vent of the RCIC transmitter logic fluid system and returned the system to an operable and available status. Daily system control panel walk

-downs are performed by operations personnel in accordance with Operations Procedure 06-OP-1000-D-0001 , "Daily Operator Logs," Revision 148. Data Sheet II, Step 175, of this procedure is performed every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> to meet Technical Specification Surveillance Requirement 3.3.6.1.1 for a channel check of the RCIC/RHR Steam Line Flow High function. The inspectors reviewed the plant data system history for the RCIC header differential pressure and determined that the oscillations were noticeable starting March 31, 2016

, at 2: 34 p.m. T he subsequent channel check of RCIC/RHR Steam Line Flow High function did not promptly identify that there were oscillations during the channel check

, such that a timely fill and vent of the RCIC transmitter logic system could have been performed to prevent an automatic RCIC isolation.

The licensee initiated Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-3070, which include d planned and completed corrective actions. This condition report included an apparent cause analysis which identified the apparent cause as an untimely fill and vent of the RCIC transmitter logic system. The inspectors determined that operations personnel failed to recognize that a fill and vent was needed when performing technical specification surveillance requirements.

Analysis.

The failure to promptly identify oscillations in the RCIC transmitter logic system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affects the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, operations personnel failed to identify oscillations in the RCIC transmitter logic system

, which resulted in an isolation and unavailability of the RCIC system.

Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At

-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system, or component, and did not result in a loss of operability or functionality; did not represent a loss of system and/or function; did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for longer than its technical specification allowed outage time, or two separate safety systems out-of-service for longer than their technical specification allowed outage time; and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non

-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety

-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program.

In addition, the inspectors determined that the finding has a challenge the unknown cross-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee failed to stop when faced with uncertain conditions and evaluate and manage risk before proceeding. Specifically, when performing multiple sets of operator control panel walk

-downs, which should have resulted in the identification of oscillations in the RCIC transmitter logic system, operators failed to recognize and correlate that the small oscillations were an abnormal system condition and could lead to a RCIC system isolation [H.11

].

Enforcement.

10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action,"

requires, in part, that "conditions adverse to quality are promptly identified.

" Contrary to the above, on April 1, 2016, the licensee failed to promptly identify a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, operations personnel failed to promptly identify that oscillations in the RCIC transmitter logic system was a condition adverse to quality. As a result, the oscillations continue d to increase which resulted in an isolation and unavailability of the RCIC system. Approximately six hours after the isolation, maintenance personnel performed a RCIC flow transmitter system fill and vent

, and the RCIC system was returned to an operable status. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-03070, this violation is being treated as a non

-cited violation

, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 5000416/2016003

-01, "Failure to Promptly Identify Conditions Adverse to Quality in the RCIC System."

1 R 05 Fire Protection (71111.05)

Quarterly Inspection

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors evaluated the licensee's fire protection program for operational status and material condition. The inspectors focused their inspection on four plant areas important to safety

On July 9, 2016, area CWPH-01, the circulating water pumphouse On July 12 , 2016, area s OC703 and OC503, the upper control room and main control room On July 29, 2016, area 1A109, the high pressure core spray pump room On August 1, 2016

, area 1A201, the main feedwater pump and turbine lube oil rooms For each area, the inspectors evaluated the fire plan against defined hazards and defense-in-depth features in the licensee's fire protection program. The inspectors evaluated control of transient combustibles and ignition sources, fire detection and suppression systems, manual firefighting equipment and capability, passive fire protection features, and compensatory measures for degraded conditions.

These activities constitute d four quarterly inspection sample s , as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1 R 06 Flood Protection Measures (71111.06)

a. Inspection Scope

On September 2, 2016, the inspectors completed an inspection of the station's ability to mitigate flooding due to internal causes. After reviewing the licensee's flooding analysis, the inspectors chose the standby diesel generator building which contained risk-significant structures, systems, and components that were susceptible to flooding.

The inspectors reviewed plant design features and licensee procedures for coping with internal flooding. The inspectors walked down the selected areas to inspect the design features, including the material condition of seals, drains, and flood barriers. The inspectors evaluated whether operator actions credited for flood mitigation could be successfully accomplished.

These activities constitute d completion of one flood protection measures sample, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.06.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1 R 07 Heat Sink Performance (71111.07)

a. Inspection Scope

The inspector s reviewed licensee programs to verify heat exchanger performance and operability for the following heat exchangers:

1T46B001B electrical switchgear room cooler 1G41B005A fuel pool cooling and clean up (FPCCU)heat exchanger 1P75B004A Division 1 diesel j acket water cooler P43-B001B turbine building cooling water heat exchanger The inspector s verified that testing, inspection, maintenance, and chemistry control programs were adequate to ensure proper heat transfer. The inspector s verified that the periodic testing and monitoring methods, as outlined in commitments to NRC Generic Letter 89-13, utilized proper industry heat exchanger guidance. Additionally, the inspecto r s verified that the licensee's chemistry program ensured that biological fouling was properly controlled between tests. The inspector s reviewed previous maintenance records of the heat exchangers to verify that the licensee's heat exchanger inspections adequately addressed structural integrity and cleanliness of their tubes. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute d completion of four triennial heat sink inspection samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.07.

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspector s identified a Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," because the licensee did not promptly correct procedures and work order instructions used to perform program testing of safety-related heat exchangers. Specifically, the licensee did not promptly correct identified deficiencies affecting work order instructions and acceptance criteria to perform surveillance requirements associated with safety

-related fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers.

Description.

During a review of the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers, the inspector s identified an issue of concern related to the procedures and work order instructions used to conduct the test program to verify the heat transfer capability of all safety-related heat exchangers cooled by service water. Specifically, the procedure and work order instructions used to demonstrate operability of the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers did not have correct acceptance criteria or adequate instructions to accomplish the task satisfactorily. The inspector s noted that the licensee initially identified the issue of concern with the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers in April 2012, then in March 2014, and again in March 2016. The fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers are used to maintain spent fuel pool temperature within requirements of Technical Requirements Manual 6.7.4. The licensee determined that this condition identified that actual heat exchanger heat removal capacity was less than original design heat removal capacity. However, the spent fuel pool temperature remained within requirements of Technical Requirements Manual 6.7.4

therefore , the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers were determined to be functional for this

condition.

Analysis.

The failure to promptly correct procedures and work order instructions used to perform program testing of safety

-related heat exchangers was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee did not promptly correct identified inadequate work order instructions or acceptance criteria to perform surveillance requirements associated with safety

-related fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers from April 2012 until September 30, 2016. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., fuel damage). Specifically, the inspector s concluded that without appropriate quantitative and qualitative acceptance criteria, the availability, reliability, and capability of the fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers would not be effectively ensured through the performance of surveillance requirements. The inspector s evaluated this finding using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1

- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." The inspector s determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not represent a loss of a safety function of a system or a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time, and did not screen potentially risk significant due to external events.

In addition, the inspectors determined that the finding has a documentation cross

-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee did not create and maintain complete, accurate, and up

-to-date documentation for the safety

-related heat exchanger testing program [H.7].

Enforcement.

10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," requir es , in part, "conditions adverse to quality are promptly identified and corrected." Contrary to the above, from April 2012 until September 30, 2016, the licensee failed to promptly correct a condition adverse to quality. Specifically, the licensee did not correct identified deficiencies affecting work order instructions and acceptance criteria to perform surveillance requirements associated with safety-related fuel pool cooling and cleanup heat exchangers. As a result, the capability of the heat exchangers to perform their required function was not effectively ensured through the performance of surveillance requirements.

In response to this issue, the licensee revised the associated procedure to provide appropriate quantitative and qualitative acceptance criteria. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-2016-07257. Because this finding was of very low safety significance

, and it was entered into the licensee's corrective action program, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy:

.2 Annual Follow

-up of Selected Issues

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors selected two issue s for an in-depth follow

-up: On June 30, 2016, Grand Gulf Nuclear Station experienced a loss of electrical power to Division 2 and Division 3 safety

-related electrical buses due to an electrical fault on a 34.5

-kV non-safety related cable supplying balance of plant transformer 23. The fault location was such that the immediate upstream breaker, 552

-2103, would not detect the fault, causing the upstream breaker, 552-2106 , to open and isolate the fault. This resulted in a loss of 34.5

-kV bus 21R, and a loss of Engineered Safeguard Feature (ESF) transformer 21, and subsequently a loss of Division 2 and Division 3 safety-related busses. Both diesel generators started and supplied all required loads, and all safety systems responded as designed.

On August 2, 2016, the inspectors completed their review of the event as documented in Condition Report CR-GGN 1-2016-05153. The condition report assessed the licensee's categorization of adverse conditions and reporting loss of safety functions as required per 10 CFR 50.72, "Immediate Notification Requirements for Operating Nuclear Power Reactors."

The inspectors assessed the licensee's problem identification threshold, electrical coordination, design basis of the 34.5

-kV switchyard, and compensatory actions associated with the event. The inspectors verified that the licensee appropriately prioritized the planned corrective actions and that these actions were adequate to correct the condition.

On June 17, 2016, a malfunction in the electro

-hydraulic control (EHC) system during turbine stop valve testing caused power and pressure oscillations that resulted in an automatic reactor scram. The inspectors' initial response associated with this event is document in Inspection Report 05000416/2016002 , Section 4OA3.6 (ML16216A137).

On September 23, 2016, the inspectors completed a focused review of th is event. The inspectors reviewed Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-04834 which assessed operator decisions prior to the automatic reactor scram that occurred on June 17, 2016.

The inspectors assessed the licensee's problem identification threshold, cause analysis, extent of condition, standing orders and operational decision making instructions. The inspectors performed interviews of licensed operators and station management to determine whether the licensee appropriately prioritized the planned corrective actions

, and that these actions were adequate to correct the condition.

These activities constituted completion of two annual follow

-up sample s, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71152.

.1 Operator Fundamental Weaknesses

The inspectors developed the following observations associated with their review of operator, and licensee response to the June 17, 2016, reactor power and pressure oscillations, and reactor scram event: Operations personnel quickly identified that the event was not thermal hydraulic instability and determined that the cause of the power and pressure oscillations were a result of a problem with the turbine EHC system. Once this was determined, operations management and operations personnel began to troubleshoot the problem. Operations management did not stay in their oversight role which contributed to lengthy troubleshooting activities without procedural guidance.

Operations personnel became desensitized to undemanded EHC control valve movement. Over a three year period, eight condition reports had been written that documented control valve movement of 5 to 10 percent, but no corrective maintenance actions had been taken to address the abnormal condition

.

Operations management, operations personnel, and reactor engineering personnel that were in the control room during the power oscillations were focused on turbine control valve fluctuations and did not recognize and appreciate the reactivity impact due to the large pressure swings caused by the turbine control valves. This, in part, contributed to the duration of the event lasting over 40 minutes before an automatic scram occurred.

.2 Operator Response to Unexpected Valve Closure During Turbine Stop Valve Testing

Introduction.

The inspectors reviewed a Green, self

-revealed, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, for the failure to establish a procedure for combating malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system. Specifically, on June 17, 2016, operators combated a malfunction in the reactor pressure control system associated with an unexpected stop valve closure without having appropriate procedure s.

Description.

On June 16, 2016, the licensee reduced reactor power to 65 percent to perform a control rod sequence exchange and turbine stop valve testing. The power reduction and sequence exchange were conducted with no issues. During the turbine stop valve testing, the B stop valve was to be cycled closed; however , upon performing that action, the B and D stop valves unexpectedly closed. When both the B and D valves closed, this provided input to the reactor protection system and caused a half scram condition on Division 2.

The electro

-hydraulic control (EHC) trip fluid pressure was fluctuating by approximately 8 psi, which caused the turbine control valves to cycle. This valve cycling resulted in reactor pressure and power swings.

The EHC average sensed power (steamline pressure) was fluctuating between 930

- 971 psig. The average power range monitors were fluctuating between 63

- 76 percent power for approximately 40 minutes. Due to the fluctuating power and pressure, operators inserted control rods to overcome the fluctuations. They were not able to stabilize the power and pressure oscillations, and approximately one minute later, on June 17, 2016, at 2: 57 a.m., an automatic reactor scram occurred due to a valid oscillating power range monitor (OPRM channels 1 and 4) input to the reactor protection system.

In 2015, while conducting the same test, the licensee encountered a system malfunction while attempting to reset a stop valve that was being tested. This resulted in a half scram; however, a second stop valve did not close. Through troubleshooting efforts, the operators were able to recover the system by resetting the affected valve; therefore, there were no power oscillations

, and the activity did not result in a reactor scram. The licensee had an opportunity in 2015 to identify that an offnormal event procedure for malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system did not exist. On June 17, 2016, the operators attempted to troubleshoot and fix the reactor pressure control system problems, similar to the previous test, by utilizing a variety of system operating instructions and surveillance procedures. An offnormal event procedure did not exist to combat issues with malfunctions in the reactor pressure control system. The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions by creating a standing order that gave clear guidance on how to control issues that cause oscillations, and has since created an offnormal event procedure for reactor pressure control system malfunctions. The licensee entered this into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-04834.

Analysis.

The failure to establish a procedure for combating malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, operators were combating a malfunction in the reactor pressure control system associated with an unexpected stop valve closure without having a procedure. As a result, the operators were unable to reconcile the pressure control malfunction, did not manually scram the reactor, and ultimately caused an automatic reactor scram. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At

-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding resulted in the mismanagement of reactivity by operators and required an evaluation using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix M, "Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria

."

A senior reactor analyst performed an evaluation to bound the increase in core damage frequency of the finding. In this evaluation

, the analyst assumed that the occurrence of power oscillations was a transient which would have demanded a scram by the reactor protection system, but the reactor protection system did not respond. The occurrence was analyzed as an event

, and the analyst performed an event assessment in the Grand Gulf Nuclear Station SPAR model, Revision 8.22, using SAPHIRE, Version 8.1.4.

The analyst then assumed that

, because of the performance deficiency, the operators did not scram the reactor and set the basic event RPS

-XHE-XE-SCRAM, "Manual Scram Fails," to TRUE. The analyst considered these assumptions to be bounding because the reactor protection system ultimately functioned to scram the reactor. The increase in core damage frequency was estimated to be 3.7E

-8/year , which made the finding of very low safety significance (Green). The analyst used NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix H, "Containment Integrity Significance Determination Process," dated May 6, 2004, to determine that since the total increase in core damage frequency of the finding was less than 1.0E

-7/year, the increase in large early release frequency was of very low safety significance (Green). The dominant core damage sequences were anticipated transients without scrams; the significance of these dominant sequences was mitigated by the capability to trip the reactor recirculation pumps. Since the bounding analysis was of very low safety significance (Green), the final significance of the finding was determined to be Green.

In addition, the inspectors determined that the finding has an identification cross-cutting aspect within the problem identification and resolution area because the licensee failed to identify issues completely, accurately, and in a timely manner in accordance with the program. Specifically, the licensee failed to identify that they were missing an offnormal event procedure for malfunctions of the reactor pressure control system following the 2015 half scram that occurred during the same testing

[P.1].

Enforcement.

Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2. Section 6.t of Appendix A o f Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, requires procedures for combating malfunctions of the pressure control system. Contrary to the above, since original plant startup, the licensee failed to establish a procedure for combating malfunctions of the pressure control system. As a result, operators were unable to reconcile the turbine stop valve malfunction that impacted reactor pressure and power control, did not manually scram the reactor, and ultimately caused an automatic reactor scram. The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions by creating a standing order that gave clear guidance on how to control issues that cause reactor pressure and power oscillations, and has since created an offnormal event procedure for reactor pressure control system malfunctions. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2016-04834, this violation is being treated as a non

-cited violation

, consistent with Sectio n 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000416/2016003

-03 , "Failure to Have an Offnormal Event Procedure for Malfunctions of the Pressure Control System."

.3 Process Used to Communicate Critical Guidance to Operations Staff

Introduction.

The inspectors identified a Green finding for the licensee's failure to aggressively and fully communicate an operational decision

-making instruction (ODMI) implementation action plan, particularly the trigger points and those actions if trigger points are exceeded, to the appropriate Operations shift personnel via Operations management in accordance with Station Procedure EN-OP-111, "Operational Decision

-Making Issue Process

." Specifically, on July 3, 2016, operations management created an ODMI, but did not communicate to onshift operators the trigger points and actions associated with the June 17, 2016

, uncontrolled power oscillations.

Description.

On August 3, 2016, the inspectors interview ed operations personnel as a follow-up of the June 17, 2016

, automatic reactor scram due to power oscillations caused by turbine stop valve malfunction s associated with the electro-hydraulic control system. The inspectors identified through the interviews that station management created a standing order on June 18, 2016 , in order to give clear guidance and trigger points for onshift operations personnel. On July 3, 2016, an ODMI was created to take the place of the standing order until an offnormal event procedure was developed. The trigger points that were implemented in the ODMI were more conservative, in that, operators were prompted to manually scram the reactor if there were sustained power oscillations that exceed 50 megawatts electric (~3.5 percent power).

Station Procedure EN-OP-111, "Operational Decision

-Making Issue (ODMI) Process," step 5.1[3] states, "to aggressively and fully communicate an ODMI implementation action plan, particularly the trigger points and those actions if trigger points are exceeded, to the appropriate Operations shift personnel via Operations management."

The inspectors determined through inspection and interviews that the onshift operations personnel did not know that an ODMI existed for this scenario. The operations personnel knew that the standing order was in place and would have acted in accordance with the less conservative standing order if a similar pressure control malfunction ha d occurred. The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions by communicating the ODMI trigger points to all onshift operators, as well as creating an offnormal event procedure. The licensee entered this into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-2016-06032.

Analysis.

The failure to follow Procedure EN

-OP-111 to aggressively and fully communicate an ODMI implementation action plan, particularly the trigger points and those actions if trigger points are exceeded, to the appropriate operations shift personnel via operations management was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and 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, operations management did not communicate ODMI trigger points and actions to ensure appropriate operator response to limit the liklihood of events that upset plant stability, similar to the reactor pressure and power oscillations that occurred on June 17, 2016.

Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At

-Power," and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, "Initiating Events Screening Questions," the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not cause a reactor trip.

The inspectors determined that the finding has a change management cross

-cutting aspect within the human performance area because the licensee management failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee failed to use the ODMI process effectively such that the ODMI was communicated and could be implemented as designed [H.3].

Enforcement.

The inspectors did not identify a violation of regulatory requirements associated with this finding

4OA 3 Follow-up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion (71153)

.1 Planned Plant Shutdown due to Turbine Bypass Valve Control Issue

a. Inspection Scope

On July 10, 2016, operators commence d a reactor startup , and at approximately eight percent power, operators noticed that the turbine bypass valves were moving without being demanded. On July 11, 2016, the licensee performed a controlled plant shutdown to investigate the issue. The inspectors independently reviewed data logs, toured plant areas and observed control room indications to confirm the appropriate plant response was obtained to achieve safe shutdown conditions.

The licensee entered this event into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-1-2016-05379.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Operators Identified that Alternate Decay Heat Removal System was not Available

a. Inspection Scope

On September 23, 2016, prior to placing the alternate decay heat removal (ADHR) system in operation following replacement of a residual heat removal pump, operators discovered that the cooling water supplies to each of the ADHR heat exchangers from the plant service water (PSW) system were danger tagged closed. This configuration had been established on August 10, 2016, to isolate the system for power operations. Following the September 8, 2016, shutdown, operators did not properly align the ADHR system for a standby lineup and did not verify that the system was available to meet technical specification requirements.

The inspectors independently reviewed procedures, work orders, tag outs and toured plant areas to understand the issue. The inspectors also verified that the plant maintained the capability of shutdown cooling using residual heat removal subsystems A and B following the discovery. The inspectors also reviewed the reportability requirements for this event. The licensee entered this event into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-1-2016-07281. The inspectors provided event details for the NRC to perform an evaluation in accordance with NRC Management Directive 8.3, "NRC Incident Investigation Program."

This evaluation determined that the appropriate NRC response was to conduct a Special Inspection to identify the circumstances surrounding this event and review the licensee's actions to address the causes of the event

. This inspection began on October 31, 20 16.

b. Findings

Findings related to this event will be documented in the inspection report associated with the Special Inspection that began on October 31, 2016.

.3 Unintended Reactor Water Level Increase while in Mode 4

a. Inspection Scope

On September 24, 2016, while in the process of isolating residual heat removal subsystem B in accordance with station procedure s , operations personnel opened a valve that was isolating the condensate/feedwater system from the reactor vessel. This resulted in a reactor water level increase from 33 inches narrow range to 151 inches on the wide range level indication. The licensee returned the valve to the closed position after it went to the full open position , and subsequently restored reactor water level back to the normal level of approximately 33 inches on the narrow range.

The inspectors independently reviewed procedures, drawings and operator logs. The inspectors verifi ed that following the event, the licensee understood what happened, and confirmed that the plant was in a stable condition.

The inspectors also reviewed the reportability requirements for this event. The licensee entered this event into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR

-GGN-1-2016-07280.

b. Findings

Findings related to this event will be documented in the inspection report associated with the Special Inspection that began on October 31, 2016.

These activities constitute d completion of three event follow

-up samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71153.

4OA 5 Other Activities Follow Up Inspection for Three or More Severity Level IV Traditional Enforcement Violations in the Same Area in a 12

-Month Period

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed Inspection Procedure (IP) 92723, "Follow Up Inspection for Three or More Severity Level IV Traditional Enforcement Violations in the Same Area in a 12-Month Period," based on the results of the NRC's annual review of station performance as documented in the 2015 assessment letter dated March 2, 2016 , (ML16061A361). In 2015, the NRC issued the following seven Severity Level (SL) IV traditional enforcement violations in the area of impeding the regulatory process:

NCV 05000416/2015002

-03, "Failure to Update the Final Safety Analysis Report after the Extended Power Uprate" NCV 05000416/20 15007-05, "Failure to Maintain a Safety

-Related Cable Tray Overfill Analysis Record" NCV 05000416/2015007

-07, "Failure to Update the Final Safety Analysis Report" NCV 05000416/2015007

-08, "Incomplete and Inaccurate Response to NRC Bulletin 88

-04" NCV 05000416/2015007

-09, "Failure to Obtain a License Amendment for Use of Probabilistic Methods to Evaluate Tornado Missile Hazards" NCV 05000416/2015008

-04, "Failure to Make Required Event Notification" NCV 05000416/2015004

-03, "Failure to Make a Required Eight-Hour Report for Loss of Safety Function" The inspectors reviewed the licensee's cause evaluation and corrective actions associated with these issues in order to determine whether the licensee's actions met the IP 92723 inspection objectives to provide assurance that:

(1) the cause(s) of the violations are understood by the licensee,

(2) the extent of condition and extent of cause of the violations are identified, and

(3) licensee corrective actions to the violations are sufficient to address the cause(s).

b. Findings and Observations

No findings were identified.

The inspectors determined that the licensee's actions to identify the causes of the violations, evaluate the extent of condition and extent of cause of the violations, and develop appropriate corrective actions to address the causes of the violations were adequate to meet the inspection objectives stated above.

4OA 6 Meetings, Including Exit

Exit Meeting Summary

On September 23, 2016, the inspector s presented the final inspection results to Mr. V. Fallacara , Acting Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The inspector s asked the licensee whether any materials examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary. No proprietary information was identified.

On September 29, 2016, the inspectors presented the results of the IP 92723 inspection to Mr. V. Fallacara, Acting Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented.

The licensee confirmed that any proprietary information reviewed by the inspectors had been returned or destroyed.

On October 13, 2016, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. V. Fallacara, Acting Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The licensee confirmed that any proprietary information reviewed by the inspectors had been returned or destroyed.

4OA 7 Licensee-Identified Violations The following licensee-identified violation of NRC requirements w as determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) and meet s the NRC Enforcement Policy criteria for being dispositioned as a n on-cited violation. The inspectors reviewed a violation of 10 CFR Part 50.65(b)(2)(iii)

, which requires, in part, that the scope of the monitoring program shall include non

-safety related structures, systems, and components whose failure could cause a reactor scram or actuation of a safety

-related system. Contrary to the above, from inception of the facilit y's monitoring program through August 2, 2016, the licensee failed to include a non

-safety related system and components whose failure could cause a reactor scram or actuation of a safety

-related system in the scope of the maintenance monitoring program. Specifically, the 34.5

-kV switchyard and components were not included in the maintenance monitoring program. This violation was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as CR

-GG1-2016-05915 and CR

-GG1-201 6-06027. The inspectors determined the issue was of very low safety significance (Green) because the violation was not the direct cause of the loss of safety

-related buses such that all screening questions in Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 1, "Initiating Events Screening Questions," could be answered "no

".
