SUBJECT: LASALLE COUNTY STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 COMPONENT DESIGN BASES INSPECTION (CDBI) 05000373/2010006(DRS); 05000374/2010006(DRS)

Dear Mr. Pacilio:

On January 3, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a component design bases inspection at your LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the results of this inspection, which were discussed during an interim exit meeting on November 19, 2010, with the Director of Engineering Mr. Harold Vinyard and other members of your staff, and during a subsequent discussion on January 3, 2011, with Mr. T. Simpkin. The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The team reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. Based on the results of this inspection, four NRC-identified findings of very low safety significance were identified. The findings involved violations of NRC requirements. However, because of their very low safety significance, and because the issues were entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating the issues as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs) in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the subject or severity of any NCVs, 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 a copy to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission - Region III, 2443 Warrenville Road, Suite 210, Lisle, IL 60532-4352; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the Resident Inspector Office at the LaSalle County Station. In addition, if you disagree with the cross-cutting aspect assigned to any finding in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region III, and the NRC Resident Inspector at the LaSalle County Station. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

Inspection Report (IR) 05000373/2010006(DRS); 05000374/2010006(DRS); 10/18/2010 - 01/03/2011; LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2; Component Design Bases Inspection. The inspection was a 3-week on-site baseline inspection that focused on the design of components that are risk-significant and have low design margin. The inspection was conducted by regional engineering team and two consultants. Four Green findings were identified by the team. The findings were considered Non-Cited Violations (NCVs) of NRC regulations. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, "Significance Determination Process" (SDP). Findings for which the SDP does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 4, dated December 2006.

A. NRC-Identified

and Self-Revealed Findings

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to have an adequate calculation to demonstrate the seismic qualification of the standby liquid control (SBLC) system test tanks. Specifically, the licensee could not ensure that the Units 1 and 2 SBLC test tanks, if filled with water, would not collapse and damage nearby safety-related components during a design basis event. The licensee entered this finding into their corrective action program and drained the water from the SBLC test tanks to restore seismic qualification. The team determined that this finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability of the SBLC system to respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) utilizing the Risk-Assessment Standardization Project Handbook based on the frequency of seismic events. The finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect because it was not reflective of current performance. (Section 1R21.3.b.(1))

Green.

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control" for the licensee's failure to account for allowable frequency variations on the emergency diesel generators (EDG) in the diesel fuel oil consumption and residual heat removal (RHR) pump net positive suction head (NPSH) calculations. Specifically, the team noted the calculations assumed a frequency of 60 Hz whereas the Technical Specifications (TS) allowed steady state operation at a frequency of up to 61.2 Hz. The licensee entered this finding into their corrective action program and implemented a standing order and procedural limitations to ensure an adequate supply of fuel was available.

The team determined that this finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of the EDGs to respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, operating the EDGs at a frequency of 61.2 Hz would result in higher fuel consumption and reduced RHR pump NPSH margins. The finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not result in a loss of operability. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, operating experience because the licensee did not properly evaluate relevant operating experience. (P.2(a)) (Section 1R21.3.b.(2))

Green.

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," involving the licensee's failure to have appropriate analyses for the loss of voltage relay setpoints and the second level undervoltage [degraded voltage] relay timer settings. Specifically, licensee's analysis and technical basis for the auxiliary power system (AP) second level undervoltage relay time delay settings failed to demonstrate the ability of the permanently connected safety-related loads to continue to operate during the 5.5 minutes relay time delay without sustaining damage during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition (when voltage was still above the setpoint of the loss of voltage relay setpoint). The licensee entered this finding into their corrective action program to verify the adequacy of the degraded voltage relay setpoint and time delay design. The team determined that this finding was more than minor because the finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Design Control, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, there was reasonable doubt as to whether the permanently connected safety-related loads would remain operable during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition for the duration of the time delay chosen for the degraded voltage relay. The finding was of very low safety significance (Green) since the existing settings for the inverse time relay currently being used for the loss of voltage relay would limit the duration of degraded voltage below 75 percent to only a few seconds. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because similar concerns raised at the Byron Nuclear Station, during the 2009 CDBI, were not promptly evaluated and correctly dispositioned at LaSalle. P1(c) (Section 1R21.3.b.(3))

Green.

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," involving the licensee's failure to analyze the capability of the electrical system to transfer safety related 4160V buses as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). The licensee entered this finding into their corrective action program and issued a standing order restricting alignment of safety buses to the unit auxiliary transformer (UAT) pending resolution of this issue.

The team determined that this finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Design Control, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was of very low safety significance (Green) since the safety buses had not been aligned to the UAT, the team determined the finding design deficiency did not result in loss of operability or functionality. The team did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the finding was not representative of current performance. (Section 1R21.3.b.(4))

Cornerstone:

Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity

1R21 Component Design Bases Inspection

.1 Introduction

The objective of the component design bases inspection is to verify that design bases have been correctly implemented for the selected risk significant components and that operating procedures and operator actions are consistent with design and licensing bases. As plants age, their design bases may be difficult to determine and an important design feature may be altered or disabled during a modification. The Probabilistic Risk-Assessment (PRA) model assumes the capability of safety systems and components to perform their intended safety function successfully. This inspectible area verifies aspects of the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones for which there are no indicators to measure performance. Specific documents reviewed during the inspection are listed in the Attachment to this report.

.2 Inspection Sample Selection Process

The team selected risk-significant components and operator actions for review using information contained in the licensee's PRA and the LaSalle Standardized Plant Analysis Risk (SPAR) Model, Revision 3.45. In general, the selection was based upon the components and operator actions having a risk achievement worth of greater than 1.3 and/or a risk reduction worth greater than 1.005. The operator actions selected for review included actions taken by operators both inside and outside of the control room during postulated accident scenarios. In addition, the team selected operating experience issues associated with the selected components. The team performed a margin assessment and detailed review of the selected risk-significant components to verify that the design bases have been correctly implemented and maintained. This design margin assessment considered original design reductions caused by design modification, or power uprates, or reductions due to degraded material condition. Equipment reliability issues were also considered in the selection of components for detailed review. These included items such as performance test results, significant corrective action, repeated maintenance activities, maintenance rule (a)(1) status, components requiring an operability evaluation, NRC resident inspector input of problem areas/equipment, and system health reports. Consideration was also given to the uniqueness and complexity of the design, operating experience, and the available defense in depth margins. A summary of the reviews performed and the specific inspection findings identified are included in the following sections of the report. This inspection constituted 24 samples as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.21-05, which included 16 components, 4 operating experience reviews and 4 operator actions.

.3 Component Design

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed the UFSAR, TS, design basis documents, drawings, calculations and other available design basis information, to determine the performance requirements of the selected components. The team used applicable industry standards, such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards and the National Electric Code, to evaluate acceptability of the systems' design. The team also evaluated licensee actions, if any, taken in response to NRC issued operating experience, such as Bulletins, Generic Letters (GLs), Regulatory Issue Summaries (RISs), and Information Notices (INs). The review was to verify that the selected components would function as designed when required and support proper operation of the associated systems. The attributes that were needed for a component to perform its required function included process medium, energy sources, control systems, operator actions, and heat removal. The attributes to verify that the component condition and tested capability was consistent with the design bases and was appropriate may include installed configuration, system operation, detailed design, system testing, equipment and environmental qualification, equipment protection, component inputs and outputs, operating experience, and component degradation. For each of the components selected, the team reviewed the maintenance history, system health reports, operating experience related information, vendor manuals, electrical and mechanical drawings, and licensee corrective action program documents. Field walkdowns were conducted for all accessible components to assess material condition and to verify that the as-built condition was consistent with the design.

  • Control Room Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) System (0VC05CA

): The team reviewed the control room ventilation system to assure that it would function during normal operating conditions and during a design basis accident. In particular the team reviewed the HVAC compressors to access the actions that had been taken to respond to a trend of negative compressor performance. The team reviewed a root cause report to determine if the recommendations were implemented and effective. The team reviewed the tracer gas tests to evaluate if the control room atmosphere would remain habitable following a design basis accident. Corrective action documents issued from the test were reviewed to assure that identified in-leakage adequately repaired. The team met with the control room HVAC engineer to inquire about the equipment operational performance and the venting of the control room following a postulated control room fire.

b. Findings

(1) Supporting Structure for Standby Liquid Control (SBLC) System Test Tank Non-Functional During Postulated Design Basis Earthquake (DBE)
Introduction:

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the failure to have an adequate calculation to demonstrate the seismic qualification of the standby liquid control (SBLC) system test tanks. Specifically, the licensee could not ensure that the SBLC system test tanks, if filled with water, would not collapse and damage nearby safety-related components during a DBE.

Description:

The SBLC system test tanks in Units 1 and 2 are used to test flow in the SBLC system. The test tanks are classified as non-safety related and are located nearby safety related SBLC system components. During the inspection, the team identified that the test tanks were three-quarters full of water. The licensee's procedure LOS-SC-Q1, "SBLC Surveillance Pump Test, Attachments 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B," allowed the water level in the test tanks to be maintained at 75 percent following testing. The team reviewed design calculation EMD-030015, "Foundation Loads for Standby Liquid Control Test Tank," which evaluated the seismic adequacy of the test tank supporting structure. The team noted that calculation EMD-030015 only evaluated the 5/8 inch test tank anchor bolts as the limiting structural component for the tank support design and concluded that these anchor bolts were structurally adequate for the seismic reaction forces determined in the calculation. The team informed the licensee of a very similar issue which was identified at the River Bend Nuclear Station in 2009 and questioned the licensee as to why other components of the test tank supporting structure were not evaluated at LaSalle. The licensee issued IR 01129847 to document and evaluates these concerns. The team identified errors in calculation EMD-030015 including incorrect and non-conservative properties that were used for the structural angles that supported the tanks. The team further determined that these structural angles would be non-functional during a design basis seismic event if subjected to the seismic reactions determined in the calculation. These calculation deficiencies and concerns were communicated to the licensee who then identified additional calculation deficiencies. The licensee initiated IR 01131668 to document and addresses these concerns.

The team noted that after the discrepancies were identified, the licensee had not assessed the functionality of the tanks. The team questioned whether the SBLC safety-related equipment was operable when water that remained in the tanks at the conclusion of the test. Subsequently, the licensee promptly drained the existing water from the test tanks to ensure that the structural adequacy of the tanks would be maintained during a DBE. The licensee also revised procedure LOS-SC-Q1 to drain the test tanks following quarterly surveillance testing.

Upon further design review, the licensee determined that if the water was not fully drained from the test tank at the conclusion of the test, there was a possibility that one or more of the supporting legs could fail and result in the tanks falling over or collapsing. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as IR 01132019 and initiated an operability evaluation OE 10-004, "Standby Liquid Control (SBLC) Test Tank." This functionality evaluation determined that the tank would not collapse if it was empty. However, if partially filled with water, a failure of the test tanks could adversely impact the 12 Enclosure SBLC pumps [1(2)C41-C001A/B] or the test tank outlet valves [1(2)C41-F031]. Also, if the Unit 2 test tank supporting structure was to collapse, an adjacent conduit containing power cables for the safety-related SBLC storage tank outlet valve (2C41-F001A) could be adversely impacted. In addition, the test tank outlet valves have permissive interlocks that would prevent the SBLC pump solution tank suction valves from opening if the test tank outlet valves were not fully closed.

On October 28, 2010, the licensee submitted an event report (46372) pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(v) to report this finding.

Analysis:

The team determined the failure to ensure that the SBLC system test tanks would not collapse and damage safety related components during a design bases earthquake (DBE) is a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because the finding was similar to IMC 0612, Appendix E, Example 3j. The engineering calculation error resulted in a condition where the supporting structure of the SBLC test tanks was determined to be non-functional with the as-left water level inside tank following quarterly surveillance testing. This performance deficiency also impacted the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, the cornerstone attribute of design control was impacted because the initial seismic design of the test tank supporting structure was not adequate. Therefore, with tanks not fully drained of water after quarterly testing, they could fail during a DBE and adversely impact safety related systems. The team determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," and Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 -

Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings," Table 3b, "SDP Phase 1 Screening Worksheet for Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barriers Cornerstones." The team determined that the cornerstone best reflecting the dominant risk was the Mitigating Systems cornerstone. In accordance with Table 4b, "Seismic, Flooding, or Severe Weather Screening Criteria," the finding screened as potentially risk significant due to external initiating event core damage sequences. Therefore, the Region III Senior Risk Analyst (SRA) performed an SDP Phase 3 risk-assessment of this performance deficiency. Since SBLC system is only used to mitigate anticipated transient without scram (ATWS) events, the Phase 3 analysis assumed that, given a seismic-induced (functional failure of the control rod drive and hydraulic units) the core damage probability was 1.0. The SRA used generic seismic fragility information from the Risk-Assessment Standardization Project (RASP) Handbook. Using Table 4A-1 from the RASP Handbook the frequency of various seismic events was determined. Using this information and assuming a conditional core damage probability of 1.0, the seismic core damage frequency for this issue was near 1.0E-7. This result showed that the change in core damage frequency for this issue was of very low safety significance (Green).

The team did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the finding was not representative of current performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that design control measures shall provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, such as by the performance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by the performance of a suitable testing program.

13 Enclosure Contrary to the above, from the time of original construction until October 27, 2010, the licensee's design control measures failed to verify the design adequacy of SBLC system test tanks. Specifically, the licensee failed to have an adequate calculation to demonstrate the seismic qualification of the SBLC system test tanks. This was required to ensure that the supporting structure for the SBLC system test tanks, if filled with water, would not collapse and damage safety-related components during a DBE. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensee's corrective action program (CAP) as IRs 01129847, 01131668, and 01132019, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000373/2010006-01; 05000374/2010006-01, Supporting Structure for Standby Liquid Control System Test Tank Non-Functional During Postulated DBE).

(2) EDG Usable Fuel and RHR Pump NPSH Calculations Failed to Consider Appropriate EDG Frequency Variations
Introduction:

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," with two examples for the licensee's failure to account for allowable frequency variations in

(1) the EDG fuel oil consumption calculations, and
(2) the residual heat removal (RHR) pump net positive suction head (NPSH) calculations. Specifically, the licensee failed to calculate the effects of increased EDG frequency on diesel fuel consumption, and pump speed, flow, and NPSH of the RHR pump.
Description:

The team identified two examples of the licensee's failure to account for allowable frequency variations in their calculations. Technical Specifications (TS) Surveillance Requirement 3.8.1.2 stated, "Verify each required DG starts from standby conditions and achieves steady state-frequency 58.8 Hz and 61.2 Hz." The "steady state" words were added to the TS in April 2001 during transition to Improved Technical Specifications. However, the licensee's calculations and procedures were based on frequencies of 60 or 60.5 Hz.

The team determined that an increase in frequency would result in increased pump motor speeds and pump flows that would lead to an increase in the EDG loading. The team identified the following specific concerns during the inspection: Usable Fuel Calculations Failed to Consider Appropriate EDG Frequency Variations Calculation L-003416, "Emergency Diesel Generators On-site Usable Fuel Volume Requirements" was based on the EDGs operating at a frequency of 60 Hz. Prior to this inspection, the licensee reviewed a similar issue identified at another plant relating to EDG frequency (IR 01122224) and evaluated this issue for potential impact at LaSalle.

Based on this review, the licensee recalculated their EDG fuel oil consumption based on operation of the EDGs at 60.5 Hz in calculation EC 381640, "Minimum Required On-Site Usable Diesel Fuel-" and determined that the fuel requirements for 6 and 7-day operation would increase by approximately 2.5 percent and be in excess of the values set forth in the TS Bases Table B 3.8.3-1. The licensee determined that the 7-day fuel oil supply for the Divisions 1 and 2 diesels was 34,635.6 gallons of fuel whereas the fuel oil storage tank alarm was set at 35,475 gallons. This resulted in a margin of 839.4 gallons. The licensee determined that the margin for the Division 3 EDG was 1,283.6 gallons. The low level alarms were set to alarm before the TS values were reached, therefore the licensee had 14 Enclosure enough fuel to support operation at 60.5 Hz based on their low level alarm set points. As part of their immediate corrective action, on October 6, 2010, the licensee initiated a standing order to limit operation of the EDGs at a frequency not to exceed 60.5 Hz and documented their conclusion in operability evaluation OE 10-005, "Potential Non-Conservative Tech Spec for EDG Fuel Oil." After reviewing calculations EC 381640 and L-003418, "Emergency Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Setpoints," which determined the EDG fuel oil setpoints, the team identified that instrument uncertainties were not considered in these calculations. The team determined that instrument uncertainties could result in a further decrease of 719 gallons for Divisions 1 and 2 EDGs. This resulted in a margin decrease down to 120.4 gallons, or approximately 38 minutes based on data and equations provided in calculation L-003416, a further decrease in margin of 85 percent. Instrument uncertainties were also not accounted for in the Division 3 EDG calculations and resulted in a decrease of 655 gallons (51 percent) in margin. Based on these calculations, the team had a reasonable doubt on the adequacy of EDG fuel supply. In addition, the team noted that the TS (Surveillance Requirement 3.8.1.2) stated that the EDGs could operate at a steady state frequency up to 61.2 Hz. This would result in a higher fuel consumption that would exceed the TS minimum 6 and 7-day volumetric fuel requirements. Specifically, an increase in frequency to 61.2 Hz would increase EDG fuel consumption by approximately 6.12 percent.

The licensee was committed to using ANSI N195-1976 methodology for determining fuel oil storage requirements. The two methods provided in ANSI N195-1976 were time dependent load (load profile) and rated load. The licensee used one of the two methods to determine their fuel oil storage requirements for each EDG:

  • Divisions 1 and 2 EDGs: Technical Specifications Surveillance Requirement 3.8.3.1 required that Divisions 1 and 2 EDGs have enough fuel to support 7-day operation at rated load. The team determined that the licensee had margin to operate the Divisions 1 and 2 EDGs at rated load at frequencies up to 61.2 Hz because rated load would not be directly affected by a change in EDG frequency.
  • Division 3 EDG: Technical Specifications Surveillance Requirement 3.8.3.1 also required that Division 3 EDGs must have enough fuel to support operation for 7 days at maximum load profile. The load profile is dependent on the frequency of the EDG. Therefore, the licensee should have calculated the fuel requirements based on the maximum allowable steady state frequency by TS (61.2 Hz) for the Division 3 EDGs because those loads would vary with frequency changes. The team determined that the Division 3 EDG would not have enough fuel to operate at 61.2 Hz. However, because the licensee had a standing order to limit operation not to exceed 60.5 Hz, the team did not have an immediate safety concern. The team concluded that credit could not be given to the licensee for self-identification. The licensee issued IR 01136071 to capture the team's concerns. The NRC provided guidance for improper or inadequate TS in Administrative Letter 98-10. Imposing administrative controls in response to improper or inadequate TS was an acceptable short-term corrective action. However, the NRC expects that, following the imposition of administrative controls, an amendment to the TS would be submitted in a 15 Enclosure timely fashion. Therefore, the licensee should not have relied on administrative controls (procedures and the SO limiting EDG operation to 60.5 Hz) on a permanent basis to address the nonconforming TS Bases Table B 3.8.3-1 fuel oil supply values.

Usable RHR Pump NPSH Calculations Failed to Consider Appropriate EDG Frequency Variations The team reviewed the RHR pump design basis calculations and the UFSAR to assure that there was adequate NPSH margin for station blackout and design basis LOCA conditions. The team noted that an increased EDG frequency of 61.2 Hz, permitted by the TS, was not included in either the design basis analysis or UFSAR and asked the licensee if this case had been evaluated. The licensee provided its review of a similar industry issue identified at another plant regarding the impact of increased operating frequency on the RHR Pump speed and change of the required and available NPSH. The licensee also provided the evaluation as documented in EC-381008, "Assessment of EDG Frequency upon NPSH In Support Of OPEX Review." The licensee found that the NPSH margin was significantly reduced but still within allowable limits. The impact on RHR NPSH margin was a reduction from 1.1 to 0.32 feet. The team identified that although the licensee found that margin reduction was reduced, but acceptable, the revised limiting conditions were not reflected in either the RHR design basis calculations or UFSAR Section 6.3.2.2. As such, the design basis documents and the UFSAR did not provide correct values for limiting plant design conditions. The licensee issued AR 1141618 to document and addresses these concerns.

Analysis:

The team determined that failure to account for allowable frequency variations in the diesel fuel oil consumption and the RHR pump NPSH calculations was contrary to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," and was a performance deficiency. The finding was determined to be more than minor because the performance deficiency was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of design control and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, operating the EDGs at a frequency of 61.2 Hz would result in higher fuel consumption and reduced RHR pump NPSH margins. In addition, the usable fuel oil example was similar to IMC 0612, Appendix E, Example 3j in that the calculation L-003416 error resulted in a reasonable doubt on the adequacy of diesel fuel supply.

The team determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process" Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of findings," Table 4a, "Characterization Worksheet for IE, MS, and BI Cornerstones." The team determined that the cornerstone best reflecting the dominant risk was the Mitigating Systems cornerstone. The team confirmed that the finding did not result in a loss of operability or functionality per "Part 9900, Technical Guidance, Operability Determination Process for Operability and Functional Assessment," because of the standing order already in place (limiting operation of the EDGs to 60.5 Hz). Therefore, this finding was of very low safety significance (Green). This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, operating experience because the licensee did not properly evaluate relevant operating experience. Specifically, the licensee incorrectly assessed operating experience by not accounting for the maximum allowable frequency of 61.2 Hz as specified in the TS. P.2(a)

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that design control measures shall provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, such as by the performance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by the performance of a suitable testing program. Contrary to the above, from April 2001 until November 19, 2010, the licensee failed to perform an adequate design review of the effects of increased EDG frequency on fuel oil consumption and RHR pump NPSH. Specifically, the licensee failed to verify that the fuel oil consumption and RHR pump NPSH calculations were based on the appropriate TS basis of EDG operation at up to 61.2 Hz. The licensee also failed to verify that appropriate RHR pump NPSH values were incorporated into the design basis calculations and the UFSAR. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensee's CAP as IRs 01136071 and 01141618, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000373/2010006-02; 05000374/2010006-02, EDG Usable Fuel and RHR Pump NPSH Calculations Failed to Consider Appropriate EDG Frequency Variations).

(3) Insufficient Design Bases for Degraded Voltage (DV) Time Delay and Loss of Voltage (LOV) Relay Settings
Introduction:

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," involving the licensee's failure to have appropriate analyses for the loss of voltage (LOV) relay setpoints and the second level undervoltage [(degraded voltage (DV)] relay timer settings. Specifically, licensee's analysis of EC 379235, "Evaluation and Technical Basis for the AP System Second Level Undervoltage (Degraded Voltage) Time Delay Settings," dated October 18, 2010, failed to demonstrate the ability of the permanently connected safety-related loads to continue to operate for 5.5 minutes without sustaining damage during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition, when voltage was still above the setpoint of the LOV relay setpoint.

Description:

The licensee has not established the adequacy of the setpoints for second level undervoltage - DV relay time delay, and the LOV relay trip function described in TS.

LaSalle Technical Specifications Table 3.3.8.1 specifies the Allowable Values for the second level undervoltage - DV relay time delay non-LOCA case as 270.1 and 329.9 seconds. The Allowable Value for the LOV relay setpoint is specified as 2422V and 3091V. The Allowable Value for the LOV relay time delay is specified as 3.1 and 10.9 seconds. The team identified the following issues:

  • The licensee's recent analysis for the second level undervoltage - DV relay timer settings did not account for the potential worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition and, therefore, did not demonstrate the operability of permanently connected safety-related loads under those conditions.
  • The licensee was unable to provide an analysis to demonstrate the acceptability of the TS lower voltage limit for the LOV relay.
  • Technical Specifications Table 3.3.8.1 does not contain parameters appropriate to the settings of the currently installed inverse-time type LOV relay.

17 Enclosure Degraded Voltage Relay Time Delay The original NRC Safety Evaluation Report, NUREG-0519 dated March 1981 - Section 8.2.2.2, "Low and/or Degraded Grid Voltage Condition" states, in part, "-the voltage and time setpoints will be determined from analysis of voltage requirements of the safety-related loads." The team reviewed EC 379235, dated October 18, 2010, and determined that the analysis did not address the worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition. Specifically, the analysis only evaluated the operability of permanently connected safety-related loads to a maximum degraded voltage of 75 percent of nominal. The licensee chose 75 percent of nominal voltage as the lower limit of degraded voltage based on an operator manual action, not formally approved by NRC, to trip the offsite source, if the voltage were to degrade below 75 percent of nominal for more than a minute. Without the operator action, the voltage could drop to just above first level undervoltage setpoint of approximately 58 percent of nominal during the 5.5 minutes time delay period, however, the licensee did not address operability of permanently connected safety-related loads at those voltage levels. Discussions with the licensee regarding this issue indicated that the licensee had received formal NRC approval in TS Amendments 103 and 108 for Dresden Nuclear Power Station (a different Exelon nuclear unit), for the use of operator manual action to trip the offsite power if the voltage dropped below 75 percent of nominal. The licensee then informed the NRC by letter dated April 21, 1989, that they planned to implement a similar scheme at their other nuclear plants including LaSalle Station. Although, the licensee implemented the use of operator manual action to trip the offsite power if the voltage dropped below 75 percent of nominal at LaSalle Station, the licensee did not follow through formally and did not obtain prior NRC acceptance and approval as part of licensing basis as was done at Dresden Nuclear Power Station. The team confirmed this with NRC's Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. Therefore, the team concluded that the licensee was required to demonstrate operability of permanently connected safety-related loads at the worst case degraded voltage, which is the first level (loss of voltage) undervoltage of approximately 57 percent of nominal, as specified in the LaSalle TS. The team noted that the permanently connected safety-related loads were protected to a higher level than allowed by TS since the existing settings for the inverse time relay currently being used for the loss of voltage relay, limit the duration of degraded voltage below 75 percent to a few seconds. Loss of Voltage Lower Limit The lower limit of the LOV relay setpoint is specified in TS Table 3.3.8.1 as an allowable value of 2422V. This corresponds to an analytical limit of 2363V or approximately 57 percent of 4160V. As noted above, the licensee has not justified the approximately 5.5 minute time delay of the degraded voltage relay intended to allow time for operators to improve voltage during non-LOCA conditions, and credited manual operator actions for voltage for voltage below 75 percent after one minute. The licensee did not have an analysis of the effects of sustained voltage as low as 57 percent for 1 minute. Induction motors can stall with bus voltage below approximately 70 percent and contactors and other control devices could drop out with voltage below approximately 60 percent. Since a sustained low voltage condition at the level allowed by TS could cause damage to, or tripping of loads or protective devices if allowed to persist, the specified voltage limit for the LOV relay setpoints is not consistent with either manual or automatic actions taking more than a few seconds to accomplish. The licensee has not provided analysis justifying either 18 Enclosure the 1 minute manual actions provided for in procedures, or the approximately 5.5 minute delay for automatic action. Technical Specifications Limits for LOV Relay Settings The licensee in his response to the inspector's concerns regarding the time delay of the degraded voltage relay took credit for the inverse time characteristic of the LOV relay to limit the duration of potential exposure to low voltage. The team noted that although the current voltage and time dial setpoints for the LOV relay do limit the time that degraded voltage could persist, these setpoints are not constrained by the existing TS. Specifically, the existing TS list minimum and maximum limits for the voltage and time delay. The TS do not specify the use of an inverse time relay, and do not specify the time delays at particular voltages, as is required to constrain adequate settings for inverse time relays. The team concluded that less conservative setting than the existing setpoints could be used, or a discrete time delay relay could potentially be used within the constraints of the existing TS. The team concluded that, in order to credit the desirable characteristics of the inverse time type relay, TS should specify setting constraints suitable for the relay being credited. These constraints should be shown by analysis to afford adequate equipment protection and immunity from spurious separation.

Following NRC identification of this issue at the Byron plant in March 2009, LaSalle issued a CR to document and review applicability of this issue to LaSalle. The licensee concluded, in 2009, that this was not an issue applicable to LaSalle. Subsequently, during this CDBI, the licensee issued IR 01132036 on October 28, 2010, "Potentially Non-Conservative Degraded Voltage Time Delay" to verify the adequacy of the degraded voltage relay setpoint and time delay design and ensure that the permanently connected safety-related loads would have adequate voltage to continue to run without sustaining damage during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition. The team also noted that, in August 2010 the licensee's corporate engineering group formed a high impact team (HIT) to review the issue and identify a fleet wide consistent resolution for all five applicable sites. The HIT was scheduled to have its first meeting on November 30, 2010. The team concluded that no credit for identification of this issue could be given to the licensee because similar concerns raised at the Byron Nuclear Station, during the March 2009 CDBI, were not promptly evaluated and correctly dispositioned at LaSalle, as of the time of this CDBI.

Analysis:

The team determined that the failure to perform adequate analysis to demonstrate that permanently connected, safety-related loads will not be damaged for the duration of the time delay for a worst case, non-accident, degraded voltage condition and to ensure that safe shutdown loads would be able to start and perform their safety function in response to a potential plant trip caused by such a degraded voltage condition, was a performance deficiency.

The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Design Control, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, there was reasonable doubt as to whether the permanently connected safety-related loads would remain operable during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition for the duration of the time delay chosen for the DV relay. The team 19 Enclosure determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 04, and Table 4a for the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. The team answered "no" to the five questions in Column 2 of Table 4a since the existing settings for the inverse time relay currently being used for the loss of voltage relay limit the duration of degraded voltage below 75 percent to only a few seconds. Therefore, the finding was of very low safety significance (Green).

This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because when identified at the Byron Nuclear Station, the LaSalle licensee entered the condition into their corrective action program but did not fully evaluate and incorrectly dispositioned the issue as not applicable.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control" requires, in part, that design control measures provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, such as by the performance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by the performance of suitable testing program. Contrary to the above, as of October 18, 2010, the licensee's design control measures failed to verify the adequacy of the degraded voltage relay setpoint and time delay design. Specifically, the licensee failed to analyze that, the permanently connected safety-related loads would have adequate voltage to continue to run without sustaining damage during a worst case, non-accident degraded voltage condition. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and because the issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as IR 01132036, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000373/2010006-03; 05000374/2010006-03; Insufficient Design Bases for Degraded Voltage (DV) Time Delay and Loss of Voltage (LOV) Relay Settings).

(4) Fast Bus Transfer Analysis
Introduction:

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control,"

involving the licensee's failure to analyze the capability of the electrical system to transfer safety-related 4160V buses as described in the UFSAR.

Description:

Each of the two LaSalle units is equipped with three safety related buses. The preferred configuration for normal operation is to align the safety buses to the system auxiliary transformer (SAT), however, USFAR 8.1.2.1 states that the unit auxiliary transformer (UAT) is also capable of supplying all of the auxiliary power requirements of a unit during normal operation. The UFSAR also states that upon a trip of the main generator, those switch groups which, at that time are fed from UAT 141 (including non-safety buses), are transferred automatically to SAT 142 so that all seven switch groups of Unit 1 will continue to be energized and are available for operating auxiliaries as required for a safe and orderly shutdown. A similar scheme is used for Unit 2. The licensee was not able to provide a formal analysis to demonstrate that the transfer from the UAT to the SAT could be accomplished without damage or loss of safety related loads during an accident. (Fast transfer analyses typically address the effect of phase differences between the two sources and the effect of momentary power interruption, which could cause damage to or maloperation of equipment). If one or both safety buses are aligned to the UAT and an accident occurs, the affected bus will, by design, be fully loaded with its permanently connected and automatic safety 20 Enclosure loads from the UAT source and then be automatically transferred to the SAT upon tripping of the main generator. Since both safety buses could be aligned to the UAT, the team was concerned that the buses could be subject to simultaneous failure during an accident when the fast transfer occurs.

In response to the team's concern, the licensee initially responded that alignment of safety buses to the UAT during power operation was not permitted by station procedures or TS. However, a review of procedures and the TS revealed that either or both buses 141Y and 142Y could be aligned to the UAT during power operation without time restrictions, as described in the UFSAR. The licensee also provided a white paper (not a formal analysis)discussing fast transfer of safety buses, which was prepared during the early 1990's in response to questions by the NRC electrical distribution system functional inspection team. The team noted that this paper only considered minimal loading on the safety buses and did not address the potential adverse effects of momentary power interruption on control equipment and other devices. The licensee also cited operating experience with the transfer of non-safety buses to demonstrate capability of transferring safety buses, but the team noted that, although the effect of the transfer on motors would be similar, there was no analysis of non-motors loads that could be adversely affected.

The team further noted that LaSalle had actually experienced malfunctions in the 120V control circuits for the circulating water pumps during non-safety bus transfers. The licensee was not able to identify any operating experience or testing for the case where fully loaded safety buses were transferred from one source to the other. The team therefore concluded that the licensee had not established the capability for transfers stated in the UFSAR either by analysis, testing, or operating experience. The licensee was not able to identify specific instances where one or both safety buses had been aligned to the UAT during normal operation and the team concluded that this alignment was not typically used. However, in response to this concern, the licensee issued a standing order restricting alignment of safety buses to the UAT pending resolution of this issue. This item was entered in the licensee's CAP as IR 01141298.

Analysis:

The team determined that the failure to perform analysis of fast transfer capability was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because the issue was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Design Control, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, there was reasonable doubt as to whether safety-related loads could be transferred as described in the UFSAR without adverse effects, pending analysis.

The team determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 04, and Table 4a for the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. Since it was determined that the safety buses had not been aligned to the UAT, the team determined that was a design deficiency that had not resulted in loss of operability or functionality, and therefore determined the finding was of very low safety significance (Green).

The team did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the finding was not representative of current performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control" requires, in part, that design control measures provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design, 21 Enclosure such as by the performance of design reviews, by the use of alternate or simplified calculational methods, or by the performance of suitable testing program. Contrary to the above, as of November 11, 2010, the licensee's design control measures failed to verify the adequacy of design of the fast bus-transfer capability described in the UFSAR. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and because the issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as IR 01141298, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000373/2010006-04; 05000374/2010006-04; Fast Bus-Transfer Analysis).

(5) Non-Conservative Voltage Input for Motor Starting Calculations
Introduction:

The team identified an unresolved issue (URI) related to the licensee's failure to use worst case voltage for motor starting calculations. Specifically, the licensee assumed voltage near to the administratively controlled minimum offsite voltage rather than the voltage afforded by the setpoint of the DV relay defined in the TS.

Description:

The original NRC Safety Evaluation Report, NUREG-0519, dated March 1981 - Section 8.2.2.2, "Low And/Or Degraded Grid Voltage Condition" required the implementation of a second level undervoltage scheme to protect safety-related loads and stated, in part, "-the voltage and time setpoints will be determined from analysis of voltage requirements of the safety-related loads." Updated Final Safety Analysis Report 8.2.3.2.2, "Criteria for Acceptable Voltage" states in part, "The minimum acceptable level (i.e., starting voltage) for safety-related motors is based on the minimum equipment terminal voltages postulated at the lower analytical limit or design basis of the second-level undervoltage protection setpoint." LaSalle TS Table 3.3.8.1 specified the Allowable Value for the degraded-voltage relay voltage setpoint as 3814V and 3900V. Calculation AN71 also defined the Analytical Limit for the degraded voltage relay as 3814V (approximately 91.7 percent of 4160V).

The team determined that Calculation L-003364 only analyzed steady state motor running and individual motor starting with 3814V on the safety bus. The calculation did not consider or analyze block loading at the worst case voltage allowed by the Technical Specification setpoint without disconnecting from offsite power. The team calculated the lowest value the relay will reset is at 3833V. This value reflects the vendor's specified dropout to reset ratio for the relay of 99.5 percent and the Technical Specification setpoint of 3814V (3814/0.995=3833). Therefore, based on a Technical Specification analytical limit of 3814V, a reset ratio of 99.5 percent, and block loading conditions, the lowest voltage that can occur on the bus immediately following block loading, without separating from the grid will be 3833V. The team noted that Calculation L-003364 analyzed motor starting voltage during block loading using a switchyard voltage input of 352kV, which was intended to bound the minimum expected switchyard voltage of 354kV, defined in UFSAR 8.2.3.2, "Adequacy of Offsite Power." This resulted in safety bus voltage of approximately 3960V vs. the analytical limit of 3814V. The team determined that the corresponding switchyard voltage for a fully loaded safety bus at 3833V is 341.5kV, which is considerably below the value used by the licensee in their calculation of 352kV. Since licensee's approach was not consistent with UFSAR 8.2.3.2.2 which states that motor starting voltage was based on lower analytical limit or design basis of the second level undervoltage protection setpoint, the team concluded that the block motor starting results in Calculation L-003364 were non 22 Enclosure conservative by approximately 3 percent. In response to the teams' concerns, the licensee stated that the LaSalle licensing basis did not require postulating a concurrent LOCA and degraded voltage condition. After consultation with NRR and review of the LaSalle licensing record, including FSAR Question 40.102 and NUREG-0519, they concluded that the licensee's position was incorrect.

During the inspection, the licensee performed preliminary calculations using the electrical transient analysis program (ETAP) and voltages based on the degraded voltage relay settings. These calculations showed that the safety related motors would start and accelerate satisfactorily. Based on these preliminary calculations the team concluded that this finding did not represent an operability concern. On November 12, 2010, the licensee issued IR 01139601 to determine whether the block start, at a bus voltage of 3833V (minimum degraded voltage relay reset afforded by the degraded voltage protection scheme), is part of the LaSalle design basis. On December 15, 2010, engineering initiated action item IR 01139601-03 to perform a formal analysis at a switchyard voltage that results in a recovery voltage at the minimum degraded voltage relay reset of approximately 3833V, at the 4 kV buses and revise Calculation L-003364 accordingly.

Concerning this finding, the licensee stated that the NRC previously reviewed License Amendment number 135/120 and the associated Safety Evaluation Report (SER) and concluded that the setpoint change for the undervoltage relay was acceptable. However, the team could not identify in the SER that the NRC specifically reviewed the licensee's motor block start analysis at the worst case bus voltage of 3833 Vac (minimum degraded voltage relay reset value).

This issue is considered unresolved pending resolution of differences in interpretation between the NRC and the licensee of the original licensing basis concerning motor-block- starting analysis.

23 Enclosure

.5 Modifications

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed four permanent plant modifications related to selected risk-significant components to verify that the design bases, licensing bases, and performance capability of the components had not been degraded through modifications. The modifications listed below were reviewed as part of this inspection effort:

  • EC 333812, Install Backup Battery Unit 1 Div 2 125Vdc Battery Charger 1DC17E; and
  • EC 353780, Revise Protective Relaying Circuit for Unit 1 SAT Feed Breakers 1412 and 1422 (provide 4.16kV power to ESF Division 1 and 2 Switchgears 141Y and 142Y, respectively.

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

.6 Risk-Significant Operator Actions

a. Inspection Scope

The team performed a margin assessment and detailed review of four risk significant, time critical operator actions. These actions were selected from the licensee's PRA rankings of human action importance based on risk-achievement worth values. Where possible, margins were determined by the review of the assumed design basis and UFSAR response times, human reliability analysis and performance times documented by job performance measures and scenario/drill results. For the selected operator actions, the team performed a detailed review and/or walk through of associated procedures, including observing the performance of some actions in the station's simulator and in the plant for other actions, with an appropriate plant operator to assess operator knowledge level, adequacy of procedures, and availability of special equipment where required. The following operator actions were reviewed:

  • Operator fails to initiate ECCS with a medium steam LOCA;
  • Operator fails to initiate Control Room or Auxiliary Electric Equipment Room ventilation post control room fire;
  • Operator fails to manually initiate rapid depressurization;
  • Operator fails to cross tie U1/U2 power with RCIC unavailable.

24 Enclosure

b. Findings

No findings of significance were identified.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems

.1 Review of Items Entered Into the Corrective Action Program

a. Inspection Scope

The team reviewed a sample of the selected component problems that were identified by the licensee and entered into the corrective action program. The team reviewed these issues to verify an appropriate threshold for identifying issues and to evaluate the effectiveness of corrective actions related to design issues. In addition, corrective action documents written on issues identified during the inspection were reviewed to verify adequate problem identification and incorporation of the problem into the corrective action program. The specific corrective action documents that were sampled and reviewed by the team are listed in the attachment to this report.

4OA6 Meeting(s)

.1 Exit Meeting Summary

On November 19, 2010, the team presented the inspection results to Mr. Harold Vinyard, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The team asked the licensee whether any materials examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary. Several documents reviewed by the team were considered proprietary information and were either returned to the licensee or handled in accordance with NRC policy on proprietary information.

On January 3, 2011, the team presented a change to the characterization of one issue of concern as stated on November 19, 2010, to Mr. T. Simpkin and other members of your staff. ATTACHMENT:
