As required by IP 71152, Identification and Resolution of Problems, the inspectors performed a review of the licensee's Corrective Action Program (CAP) and associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors review was focused on repetitive equipment issues, but also considered the results of daily inspector CAP item screenings discussed in Section 4OA2.1 above, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human performance results. The inspectors' review nominally considered the six month period of January 2008, through June 2008, although some examples expanded beyond those dates when the scope of the trend warranted. The review also included issues documented outside the normal CAP in major equipment problem lists, plant health team vulnerability lists, focus area reports, system health reports, self-assessment reports, maintenance rule reports, and Safety Review Group Monthly Reports. The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensee's latest quarterly trend reports listed in the Attachment to this report. Corrective actions associated with a sample of the issues identified in the licensee's trend report were reviewed for adequacy.
b. Observations and Findings
No findings of significance were identified. In general, the licensee identified trends and appropriately addressed the trends with their CAP. However, the inspectors identified a trend that the licensee had not previously recognized within their trending program. The trend was associated with issues related to the adequacy and thoroughness of coordination of outage activities. During the fall 2008 Unit 2 outage, the inspectors noted three examples where outage activities were not adequately coordinated or communicated between work groups which resulted in unintended system interactions or incomplete operational awareness of plant configurations. The inspectors also noted three similar examples of outage work coordination or communication issues during the previous two outages. These issues were documented in the licensee's corrective action program under PIPs O-08-6643, O-08-7023, O-08-7024, O-08-6998, O-08-2056, O-07-7374, and O-07-7674. The licensee initiated PIP O-09-0150 to fully evaluate their performance in outage work/activity coordination and communication through their trending program. The inspectors will continue to monitor this area and assess the effectiveness of any corrective actions that may come out of the licensee's evaluation.
4OA3 Event Follow-up
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors evaluated the event listed below to assess the overall impact on the plant and mitigating actions. As appropriate, the inspectors:
- (1) observed plant parameters and status, including mitigating systems/trains;
- (2) determined alarms/conditions preceding or indicating the event;
- (3) evaluated performance of mitigating systems and licensee actions; and
- (4) confirmed that the licensee properly classified, if applicable, the event in accordance with emergency action level procedures and made timely notifications to NRC and state/county governments as required. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.
- PIP O-08-7110, Unit 3 Tripped
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
4OA5 Other Activities
.1 Quarterly Resident Inspector Observations of Security Personnel and Activities
a. Inspection Scope
During the inspection period the inspectors conducted observations of security force personnel and activities to ensure that the activities were consistent with licensee security procedures and regulatory requirements relating to nuclear plant security. These observations took place during both normal and off-normal plant working hours. These quarterly resident inspector observations of security force personnel and activities did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Rather, they were considered an integral part of the inspectors' normal plant status reviews and inspection activities.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 (Closed) Unresolved Item (URI) 05000269,270,287/2007008-02, Untimely Corrective Action to Determine if Steel Plate Laminations Existed in Safety-Related Applications.
This issue involved the licensee's discovery of a lamination in a 3/4 inch steel plate slated for use in the fabrication of an LPI pipe hanger in July 2003, and subsequent discovery in September 2006 that additional steel plates of the same heat number had not been segregated and inspected prior to use. The inspectors noted during a corrective action program inspection in 2007 (IR 0500269,270,287/2007008) that corrective actions to inspect safety-related supports in the Unit 2 and 3 containments that were fabricated from the suspect steel had not been performed. This URI was written as it was determined that the results of the licensee's inspections of the Unit 2 and 3 supports were required to assess the significance of the issue.
The inspectors reviewed completed work orders (WO) 1765202, 1765203, 1765204, 1765205, 1765212, 1765208, 1765207, 1765209, and 1765210 to verify the licensee completed the inspections on the Unit 3 and Unit 2 supports. No laminations or defects were identified by the inspections. The results of these inspections were documented in PIP O-03-4686. Based on the results of the inspections, the untimely corrective action associated with this issue constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with Section IV of the Enforcement Policy. This URI is closed.
.3 (Open) NRC Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/172, Reactor Coolant System Dissimilar Metal Butt Welds (DMBWs)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the licensee's activities related to the inspection and mitigation of dissimilar metal butt welds in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) to ensure that the licensee activities were consistent with the industry requirements established in the Materials and Reliability Program (MRP) document MRP-139, Primary System Piping Butt Weld Inspection and Evaluation Guideline, dated July 2005. The inspectors' activities took place during this refueling outage and covered the documentation review and direct observation of the full structural weld overlay (FSWOL) process on the reactor cooling system hot leg decay heat removal line nozzle weld 2-53A-10-10A. The inspectors also reviewed the qualifications of the welders, as well as those of the personnel conducting the liquid penetrant testing prior to the application of the FSWOL.
The inspectors only implemented portions of TI-172 that corresponded to the available activities during this outage. Previous TI-172 inspection activities were documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000269,270,287/2008004. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.
