| Title | Inadequate Application of Strippable Coating to the Refueling Cavity Liner and the Failure to Configure a Valve in the Leakage Collection System Resulting in Increased Potential for Corrosion on the Exterior of the Drywell Liner Surface in the Sand Beds |
| Description | A self-revealing NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, was identified because Exelon procedures and work orders were not effective in preventing refueling cavity leakage from overflowing onto the exterior surface of the drywell liner during the refueling outage (1R24) in November 2012. The performance deficiencies that contributed to the finding were inadequate oversight of the contractors applying a strippable coating to the reactor cavity liner and a valve configuration control error on a temporarily installed leakage collection system. Upon discovery, Exelon took immediate corrective actions to open the leakage collection system filter inlet valve and restore reactor cavity liner leakage flow to the reactor building equipment drain tank. This finding is associated with the barrier integrity cornerstone and is more than minor because, if left uncorrected, this condition would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the continued wetting of the metallic drywell liner surface could provide an environment conducive to corrosion. This finding is not more than very low safety significance because Exelon performs periodic inspections of drywell liner and exterior surface coating to ensure that liner corrosion is monitored and controlled. The inspectors completed the Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, of Attachment 0609.04 of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, and screened the finding to Green, very low safety significance. Exelon has entered this condition into the corrective action process under IR 1440116. This finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Work Practices, for not ensuring supervisory and management oversight of work activities, including contractors and plant personnel, such that nuclear safety is supported regarding the application of the strippable coating on the reactor cavity liner. |
