UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION IV 1600 E. LAMAR BLVD.
ARLINGTON, TX 76011-4511 October 2 7, 2016 EA-16-104 Mr. Edward Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Pacific Gas and Electric Company Diablo Canyon Power Plant P.O. Box 56, Mail Code 104/6 Avila Beach, CA 93424
SUBJECT: DIABLO CANYON POWER PLANT - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000275/2016003 AND 05000323/2016003
Dear Mr. Halpin:
On September 30, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Diablo Canyon Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. On October 5, 2016, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. J. Nimick, Senior Director of Nuclear Services, and other members of your staff. Inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.
No NRC-identified or self
-revealing findings of more than minor significance were identified during this inspection. However, as discussed in Section 4OA5 of this report, the inspectors identified an additional example of the previous Severity Level IV non-cited violation documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000275/2015002 and 05000323/2015002. This violation involved the licensee's failure to maintain fire protection records complete and accurate in all material respects as required by Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.9, "Completeness and accuracy of information." Because the additional example occurred during the same time period as the original violation, was caused by the same licensee employee, the significance is similar to the previous violation, and because your corrective actions address the cause of the violation, including this additional example, no new enforcement action is issued in this report.
If you contest the violation or significance of the non
-cited violation, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region IV; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555
-0001; and the NRC resident inspector at the Diablo Canyon Power Plant. In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, "Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC's Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading

These activities constituted verification of the mitigating system performance index for cooling water support systems
, Units 1 and 2, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71151.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution
(71152) Routine Review
a. Inspection Scope
Throughout the inspection period, the inspectors performed daily reviews of items entered into the licensee's corrective action program and periodically attended the licensee's condition report screening meetings. The inspectors verified that licensee personnel were identifying problems at an appropriate threshold and entering these problems into the corrective action program for resolution. The inspectors verified that the licensee developed and implemented corrective actions commensurate with the significance of the problems identified.
The inspectors also reviewed the licensee's problem identification and resolution activities during the performance of the other inspection activities documented in this report.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA5 Other Activities
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a follow
-up review of a licensee identified non
-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.9, "Completeness and accuracy of information," documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000275/2015002 and 05000323/2015002 (ADAMS Accession Number ML15219A599). This non
-cited violation, identified by the licensee, involved the deliberate falsification of fire protection transient combustible walkdown records, required to be performed by the Diablo Canyon Unit 1 and 2 Operating License, Conditions 2.C.(5) and 2.C.(4), respectively.
The inspectors reviewed fire protection records and licensee corrective action documents to ensure an adequate extent of condition evaluation was performed. Th e inspectors also reviewed transcripts of interview s conducted by the NRC's Office of Investigations.
b. Findings
The inspectors identified an additional example of the previous Severity Level IV non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50.9, documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000275/2015002 and 05000323/2015002. Title 10 CFR 50.9 requires, in part, that information required by statute or by the Commission's regulations, orders, or license conditions to be maintained by the applicant or the licensee shall be complete and accurate in all material respects. Contrary to the above, between May 20 and June 10, 2014, fire protection records, required by License Condition 2.C.(5) for Unit 1 and 2.C.(4)for Unit 2, "Fire Protection," were not complete and accurate in all material respects. Specifically, the records of inspection of fire barrier and high energy line break (HELB) penetration seals completed using Procedure STP M-70A, "Inspection of Fire Barrier and HELB Penetration Seals,"
Revision 8, were incomplete and inaccurate. These records were incomplete and inaccurate because a licensee employee falsified completion of fire penetration seal inspections in the cable spreading room on the 128 foot elevation of the Auxiliary Building.
The NRC determined this violation to be an additional example of the previously documented licensee identified, Severity Level IV , non-cited violation in NRC Inspection Report 05000275/2015002 and 05000323/2015002 since the violation occurred during the same time period as the original violation and the same licensee employee was responsible for deliberately falsifying the fire protection records.
The additional example of the violation was entered into the licensee's correction action program as Notification 50865296. As immediate corrective actions, the licensee re-performed fire barrier and HELB penetration seals inspection in accordance with Procedure STP M-70A for seal inspections in the cable spreading room on the 128 foot elevation of the auxiliary building. No deficiencies were noted.
