of Changes. Tests. or Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications (IP 71111.17)

.1 Evaluations

of Changes. Tests. or Experiments (27 samples)

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed five safety evaluations to determine whether the changes to the facility or procedures, as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), had been reviewed and documented in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 requirements.

In addition, the team evaluated whether PSEG had been required to obtain NRC approval prior to implementing the change. The team interviewed plant staff and reviewed supporting information including calculations, analyses, design change documentation, procedures, the UFSAR, the Technical Specifications (TSs), and plant drawings, to assess the adequacy of the safety evaluations.

The team compared the safety evaluations and supporting documents to the guidance and methods provided in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 96-07, "Guidelines for 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluations," as endorsed by NRC Regulatory Guide 1.187, "Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments," to determine the adequacy of the safety evaluations.

The team also reviewed a sample of twenty two 10 CFR 50.59 screenings and applicability determinations for which PSEG had concluded that no safety evaluation was required.

These reviews were performed to assess whether PSEG's threshold for performing safety evaluations was consistent with 10 CFR 50.59. The sample included design changes, calclilations, procedure changes, and setpoint changes. The team reviewed the safety evaluations that PSEG had performed during the time period covered by this inspeCtion (i.e. since the last modifications inspection).

The screenings and applicability determinations were selected based on the safety significance, risk significance, and complexity of the change to the facility.

In addition, the team compared PSEG's administrative procedures used to control the screening, preparation, review, and approval of safety evaluations to the guidance in NEI 96-07 to determine whether those procedures adequately implemented the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59. The reviewed safety evaluations, screenings, and applicability determinations are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were 2

.2 Permanent

Plant Modifications (12 samples) ".2.1 Replacement of Service Water Valves 12SW33, 12SW35, 12SW37, 12SW46, and 12SW469, Unit 1 a. " Inspection Scope The team reviewed a modification (Design Change Package (DCP) 80096213)that replaced several 6 inch service water (SW) valves to include 12SW33, 12SW35, 12SW37, 12SW46, and 12SW469. The modification was implemented because the existing valves had a history of seat leakage. The valves were replaced with valves" made out of a more corrosion resistant material.

The team's review was performed to verify that the design bases, licensing bases, and performance capability of the service water system had not been degraded by the modification.

The team reviewed PSEG's installation work order, including the adequacy" of the post-modification results. The team interviewed engineering staff and' conducted a walk down of the installed valves to determine if the material condition and performance of the SW system was acceptable and in accordance with design "assumptions.

The team also reviewed stress calculations and conducted a walk down of the additional pipe supports installed for this modification to assess the installed configuration.

Additionally, the team reviewed the 10 CFR 50.59 screen associated with this modification as described in section 1 R1"7.1 of this report. The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

,2,2 Emergency Diesel Generator Field Flashing Relay Replacement.

Unit 2

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (DCP 80095529)that replaced the K1 C field flashing relay and installed an additional relay to the field flash supervisory circuit of the Unit 2 "An emergency diesel generator (EDG). The field flash relay was replaced because the original style relay was no longer available and the second relay was installed to improve the electrical separation of the supervisory circuit from the" K1 C relay. The supervisory circuit provides indication to plant operators tl1at the field flash relay had not properly reset or that the operating coil had failed open, Either condition, if left uncorrected, would prevent proper field flashing during the next start of the EDG. The team assessed the modification to verify that the design bases and performance of the EDG had not been adversely impacted by the relay and circuitry "changes.

The team also discussed the impact of the modification on the EDG operation with responsible engineers and reviewed the status of these changes for the remaining EDGs. The engineers confirmed that all of the EDGs had received the same modification under other similar design change packages.

The team performed a field " Enclosure 3 inspection of accessible portions of the circuits to assess the quality of the modification work and the overall material condition of the equipment.

The adequacy of the modification testing was verified and affected design documents were reviewed to ensure they had been properly updated. The team also reviewed the 10 CFR 50.59 screening associated with this design change. The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

'b. Findings No findings of significance were identified . . 2.3 Replacement of Auxiliary Feedwater Storage Tank (AFST)

Check Valve (2DR71. Unit 2

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (DCP 2EE00337)that replaced the AFST isolation check valve (2DR7). Check valve 2DR7 serves as an isolation between the AFST and the demineralized water system, which is used to fill the AFST. The design function of the check valve is to prevent inadvertent draining of the AFST during a pipe break or loss-of-offsite' power, thereby ensuring AFST operability.

The modification was , implemented address obsolescence of check valve parts and the seat leakage history of the installed valve. In the modification installed an upstream vent valve , (2DR174) to allow for testing of check valve 2DR7. The review was performed to verify that the design and licensing bases and performance capability of the AFST had not been degraded by the modification.

The team assessed whether the component safety classification and specific safety functions were maintained.

The team reviewed various technical evaluations to assess wbether the modification was consistent with assumptions in the design and licensing bases related to the operation of the auxiliary feedwater system. Surveillance and post-modification, test results were reviewed to verify the check valve would function in accordance with the design and to verify that test results appropriately supported system operability.

The team performed a walkdown to assess the system material condition ,and the installed configuration of the check valve and vent valve. The team also reviewed affected pla!')t documents and drawings to verify they were Cippropriately updated. Finally, the team conducted interviews with engineering staff to determine if the valve would fUnction in accordance with technical and design assumptions.

The , documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings

.2.4 Replacement

of Inboard Containment Purge Supply and Exhaust 'Isolation Valves (2VC2 and 2VC3) with Blind Flanges. Unit 2

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (DCP 80091075)that replaced the inboard containment purge supply isolation valve (2VC2) and the inboard containment exhaust isolation valve (2VC3) with double testable, 36 inch, blind flanges. PSEG implemented this modification because the containment isolation valves in the containment purge system have had a history of requiring repair to pass leak rate tests and that spare parts were not readily available.

The containment purge system is a normally closed, deactivated system that is manually energized as required to perform purging of the containment atmosphere following a plant shutdown.

The blind flanges are removed during modes 5 and 6 to allow containment purge system operation.

The outboard supply and exhaust containment isolation valves (2VC1 and 2VC4) serve as containment closure valves if an isolation of containment is required during modes 5 or 6. The blind flanges are reinstalled and leak rate tested prior to changing to mode 4. The team reviewed the modification to verify that the design bases, licensing bases, and peiformance capability of the containment purge system and the containment had not been degraded by the modification.

The team also reviewed the 10 CFR 50.59 screen, as described in section 1 R17.1 of this report, and a previously NRC approved license amendment (No. 2(0) associated with this modification.

The team interviewed engineering staff and reviewed technical evaluations associated with the modification to determine if the blind flanges would function in accordance with the design assumptions.

The team also reviewed PSEG's installation work order including post-modification testing results to ensure appropriate acceptance criteria had been applied. The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified . . 2.5 Motor Control Center Feeder Circuit Breaker Replacement.

Unit 2

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (OCP 80095528)that replaced the K225 frame circuit breaker with a K600 frame circuit breaker in Unit 2 vital bus 2B position . S2230-2BY1AX3Y.

The replacement was necessary to make the circuit breaker configuration consistent with the electrical bus configuration.

Specifically, the bus bars in the affected location where the circuit breaker line side connected were 0.5 inch thick and therefore designed for a 600 amp rated circuit breaker. However, the design drawing improperly specified a 225 amp breaker (designed to connect to a 0.25 inch thick bus bar), resulting in the mismatch between the breaker and bus configuration.

This mismatch could result in excessive stresses on the circuit breaker line side connections and/or the bus bars. Enclosure 5 The team reviewed the change to ensure that the design bases and performance capability of the vital bus were not affected by the change. This included a review of the replacement circuit breaker over current protection trip unit set points and time/current characteristics to ensure they remained consistent with design bases information (e.g. circuit breaker coordination calculations).

The inspectors discussed the change with the . responsible design and system engineers to evaluate the extent-of-condition and verify consistency between the design documentation and installed configuration on similar load centers. The team also verified affected procedures and design drawings had been . properly updated. A field walk down was performed to verify the circuit breaker configuration in the affected Unit 1 and 2 vital buses was consistent with the design documents.

The team also reviewed the 10 CFR 50.59 screening associated with this design change. The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

b. . Findings No findings of Significance were identified . . 2.5 Actuator Modification of Residual Heat Removal (RHRl System Suction Valves, Unit 2

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (DCP 80090480)that replaced the actuator gearing of the containment sump suction valves (21SJ44 and 22SJ44). The modification was implemented to address low thrust margin of the valves when subjected to a potentially higher differential pressure developed across the valves due to operation of the RHR pumps on minimum flow during certain small break loss-of-coolant accidents.

Also, a gearing replacement was performed on the refueling water storage tank (RWST) suction valves, 21 RH4 and 22RH4, to decrease the stroke time to ensure the RWST operability was not impacted.

In addition, the team reviewed the 10 CFR 50.59 screen associated with this modification as described in section 1R17.1 ofthis report. The review was performed to verify that the design and licensing bases and performance capability of the RHR system had not been degraded by the modification.

The team assessed whether the modification was consistent with assumptions in the design and licensing bases. Additionally, post-modification, diagnostic, and stroke-time testing data was reviewed to verify the operability and thrust margin of the valves. The review included verifying the UFSAR, calculations, test and operating procedures were updated to incorporate the modification.

The team verified that the operator training plan was also appropriately updated to incorporate the modification, Finally, the team conducted interviews with engineering staff to determine if the valves would function in accordance with technical and design assumptions.

The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

b, Findings No findings of significance were identified.

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a modification (DCP 80092250)that relocated the SW accumulator injection line check valves (21SW536 and 22SW536).

Two 15,000 gallon pressurized storage tanks are connected to the SW piping downstream of the SW pumps in order to keep the containment fan cooler units (CFCU) SW piping full of water following a offsite power (LOOP). The check valves in this piping prevent backflow from the SW headers to the accumulators during normal operations.

PSEG implemented this . modification to reduce the horizontal sections of SW pipe that were exposed to silt downstream of the check valves. The presence of silt adjacent to the valves discs could potentially impact valve opening. The team reviewed the modification to verify that the design bases, licensing bases, and . performance capability of the SW system had not been degraded by the modification.

The team reviewed the documentation supporting PSEG's evaluation and determination that it was acceptable to relocate the check valves next to the 90 degree elbows in the SW injection piping. The team reviewed calculation S-C-SW-MEE-191 0, Salem Units 1 & 2 CFCU Accumulator Injection Piping -Allowable Levels of Silt Accumulation during Plant Operation, to assess the impact of silt accumulation in CFCU accumulator injection piping during plant operation.

The team reviewed PSEG's installation work order, modification testing results, and revised pipe stress calculations for adequacy.

The team also interviewed engineering staff and conducted a walk down of the installed valves to determine if the material condition and of the SW system WClS acceptable and in accordancewith design Clssumptions
