The inspectors focused on the potential impact on mitigating systems and the potential to affect operator ability to implement abnormal and emergency operating procedures. The review included interviews with licensed operators and walk downs of main control room panels. The inspectors reviewed PSEG's operator burden list, control room distraction report, and operator burden self assessment.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.
PSEG has identified fourteen operator challenges at Unit 1 and Unit 2. None of these are classified as operator workarounds. The inspectors did not identify additional operator challenges or workarounds. The inspectors reviewed OP-AA-102-103, "Operator Work-Around Program", and SH.OP-AP.ZZ-0030, "Operator Burden Program", for PSEG program requirements, and found that PSEG adequately implemented these procedures. The most recent quarterly operator burden assessment was reviewed for each unit. The cumulative impact of operator challenges was found to be within manageable limits.

.3 Annual Sample - 230 and 460 Volt Circuit Breakers
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected NOTFs and other reports associated with 230 and 460 circuit breakers for detailed review. The issues were associated with slow closing or trip functions, failure to operate remotely, and/or failed preventative maintenance (PM) tests. The reports were reviewed to ensure that the full extent of the issues was identified, an appropriate evaluation was performed, and appropriate corrective actions specified and prioritized. The inspectors interviewed plant personnel involved in breaker maintenance, refurbishment and overhaul. Inspectors referenced procedures SC.MD-PM.230-0003(Q)-Rev. 1 "230 and 460 Volt ABB K-Line Circuit breaker Preventive Maintenance," and SC.MD-ST.230-0003(Q) - Rev. 21 "230 and 460 Volt ABB K-Line Circuit Breaker Refurbishment," NOTFs, technical evaluations and work orders.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance identified.
4OA3 Event Followup
.1 Unit 2 Automatic Reactor Trip
a. Inspection Scope
On August 6, 2007, Unit 2 tripped due to low-low level in the 22 steam generator.
Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) pumps automatically started on the 22 SG low-low level signal and restored SG water level. Operators stabilized the plant in Mode 3, Hot Standby. The cause of the SG low-low level was a failed output driver card in the solid state protection system. PSEG replaced the failed card and verified the condition did not exist in other potentially affected areas of the plant. Operators commenced a reactor startup on August 7, 2007. Unit 2 returned to full power on August 9, 2007.
The inspectors observed control room operators' reactor trip response including: the control room supervisor's command and control; establishing and maintaining stable hot-standby conditions; and the transition from EOPs to normal operating procedures.
Following plant stabilization the inspectors walked down the feedwater and condensate systems, the AFW system, and control room instrumentation to assess their post-trip condition, configuration control, and equipment performance. The inspectors also independently verified that safety equipment functioned as designed.
The inspectors reviewed the sequence of events report, auxiliary alarm system printer report, EOP charts, and selected recorder data. The inspectors also reviewed PSEG's post-reactor trip report and observed the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC) meeting on the trip and restart issues.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

.2 (Closed) LER 05000272/2007002-00, Manual Reactor Trips Due to Degraded Condenser Heat Removal
On April 24, 2007, at approximately 10:48 p.m., a manual reactor trip of Unit 1 was initiated with reactor power level at approximately 40 percent. The manual reactor trip was initiated in response to a degraded circulating water system (CWS) and in accordance with operating procedures. The degradation of the CWS was due to extremely heavy river debris loadings that affected the ability of plant equipment to operate under these conditions.
Unit 1 was returned to service on April 26, 2007, at 12:36 p.m. following the cleaning of the condenser water boxes and the lowering river debris conditions. On April 30, 2007, at approximately 3:02 p.m. with Unit 1 at approximately 80 percent power, a sudden localized significant amount of river debris again entered the CWS intake. This resulted in the loss of four circulating water pumps due to high traveling screen differential levels, and a manual reactor trip.
The cause of the April 24 and April 30 manual reactor trips was attributed to unusual and severe external environmental conditions resulting in record high amounts of river debris that challenged the CWS. Unit 1 was returned to service on May 3, 2007, following cleaning and inspection of the circulating water traveling screens and condenser waterboxes. This LER was reviewed by the inspectors. No findings of significance, and no violation of NRC requirements was identified. This LER is closed.
.3 (Closed) LER 05000311/2007002-00, Reactor Trip Due to a Breach in the Condensate System
On May 24, 2007, at 2:32 p.m., Unit 2 tripped due to 22 steam generator (SG) low-low level. The cause of the low SG level trip was the failure of the 24 demineralizer vessel (DMV) upper sight glass that resulted in a loss of condensate inventory, suction pressure and ultimately a trip of 21 steam generator feedwater pump (SGFP).
The 21 SGFP trip resulted in a turbine runback signal and level decrease in the 22 SG.
An automatic reactor trip occurred when 2 of 3 channels reached the low-low level set point on the 22 SG. The root cause for failure of the 24 DMV upper sight glass was attributed to PSEG's failure to use vendor guidance pertaining to the installation and maintenance of SMV sight glass windows. Corrective actions included replacing all Unit 2 sight glass windows prior to placing the DMV's back into service and the replacement of Unit 1 sight glass windows as the DMV's were removed from service during routine operation. All DMV sight glasses were replaced.
The results of the inspectors review of this event were documented in section 4OA3.3 of NRC inspection report 05000272/2007003 and 05000311/2007003. This LER was reviewed by the inspectors and no additional findings of significance or violations of NRC requirements were identified. This LER is closed.

.1 (Closed) URI 05000272/2006007-02, 05000311/2006007-02, Temperature Levels in the Control Area Relay Room During a Loss of HVAC Event
18 Enclosure In NRC inspection report 05000272/2006007 and 05000311/2006007 the inspectors documented that the computer model used to verify the adequacy of proceduralized compensatory measures implemented following a loss of ventilation in a control area relay room was inadequate. PSEG revised the computer model to address the inspectors concerns. The inspectors reviewed the revised model and confirmed that based on the results of the revised model the proceduralized compensatory measures were adequate. This URI is closed.
.2 (Closed) URI 05000272/2007006-01, Evaluation of Past Operability of the Turbine-Driven Auxiliary Feedwater Pump due to Multiple High Energy Line Break Damper Failures
In inspection report 05000272/2007006 and 05000311/2007006 the inspectors determined that the failure of two turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump high energy line break enclosure dampers at Unit 1 potentially affected the operability of the Unit 1 turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump. PSEG contracted MPR Associates to develop a model for the condition. The inspectors reviewed MPR's analysis and PSEG's Appendix R calculations and determined that PSEG's review of the issue was adequate and the conclusions reasonable. Operability of the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater pump was not affected by the damper failures. This URI is closed.
4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit
