SUMMARY

Inspection Report 05000254/2016001, 05000265/2016001; 01/01/2016-03/31/2016; Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2; Operability Evaluations and Functionality Assessments and Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion. This report covers a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by regional inspectors. One Green finding was self-revealed and one

Green finding was identified by the inspectors. The findings involved non-cited violations of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requirements. The significance of inspection findings is indicated by their color (i.e., greater than Green, or Green, White, Yellow, Red) and determined using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, "Significance Determination Process (SDP)," dated April 29, 2015. Cross-cutting aspects are determined using IMC 0310, "Aspects within the Cross-Cutting Areas," dated December 4, 2014. All violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy, dated February 4, 2015. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operati on of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 5, dated February 2014.

Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity

Green.

A finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," was self-revealed on February 2, 2016, when the operators received an alarm due to a steam leak in the Unit 1 main steam isolation valve room which resulted in the limit switch compartment for Unit 1 reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) system motor-operated valve (MOV),

MO 1-1301-17 (outboard primary containment steam isolation valve), becoming submerged with water. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that deviations from design standard, "Environmental Qualification Standard 74Q (EQ-74Q)," were controlled during original installation of MO 1-1301-17 such that the valve would not be subjected to a spray or submergence environment. The licensee documented the issue in their corrective action program under Issue Report 2625523. Corrective actions included a temporary repair of the steam leak, removal of water from the limit switch compartment, and compensatory measures that included daily monitoring for steam leaks in the Unit 1 main steam isolation valve room. In addition, the licensee performed an extent of condition review of other valves in the main steam isolation valve room. Planned corrective actions included installing t-drains or weep holes in MOVs that the licensee deemed susceptible to spray or submergence. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor and a finding because it was associated with the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone attribute of Design Control and affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers (containment) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the failure to control any environmental qualification design deviations had the potential to impact the ability of MO 1-1301-17 to close on an isolation signal and prevent radioactive releases to the environment. The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power," issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with

Exhibit 3, "Barrier Integrity Screening Questions," because the inspectors answered "No" to all questions in Section B of Exhibit 3. This finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect because the performance deficiency was not indicative of current performance. (Section 1R15)

Green.

A finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, "Quality Assurance," was identified by the inspectors for the licensee's failure to identify the structures, systems, and components to be covered by the quality assurance program, in that they did not properly classify a component of the control room emergency ventilation system as safety-related. The licensee documented the issue in their corrective action program under Issue Report 2596725. Immediate corrective actions included replacing Differential Pressure

Switch (DPS) 0-5795-50 and revising the control room ventilation procedure to allow operators to disable the interlock between the 'A' and 'B' trains of the control room emergency ventilation system. The procedure change eliminated the need for the DPS to be classified as safety-related (and therefore corrected the violation) because in the event of a failure of the DPS, the system would still be able to perform its safety function. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor and a finding because it was associated with the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone attribute of Design Control and affected the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the 'B' train of the control room emergency ventilation system is a habitability system that is provided to ensure control room operators are able to remain in the control room and operate the plant safely and to maintain the plant in a safe condition under accident conditions. The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power," issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with Exhibit 3, "Barrier Integrity Screening Questions," because the finding only represented a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the control room and did not represent a degradation of the barrier function of the control room against smoke or toxic atmosphere. This finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect because the performance deficiency was not indicative of current performance. (Section 4OA3.1.b(1))

REACTOR SAFETY

Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity

1R01 Adverse Weather Protection

.1 Winter Seasonal Readiness Preparations

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted a review of the licensee's preparations for winter conditions to verify that the plant's design features and implementation of procedures were sufficient to protect mitigating systems from the effects of adverse weather. Documentation for selected risk-significant systems was reviewed to ensure that these systems would remain functional when challenged by inclement weather. During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant specific design features and the licensee's procedures used to mitigate or respond to adverse weather conditions. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) and performance requirements for systems selected for inspection, and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant specific procedures. Cold weather protection, such as heat tracing and area heaters, was verified to be in operation where applicable. The inspectors also reviewed corrective action program (CAP) items to verify that the licensee was identifying adverse weather issues at an appropriate threshold and entering them into their CAP in accordance with station corrective action procedures. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. The inspectors' reviews focused specifically on the following plant systems due to their risk significance or susceptibility to cold weather issues:

  • contaminated condensate storage tanks and standby liquid control systems due to their risk significance and susceptibility to cold weather related-issues. This inspection constituted one winter seasonal readiness preparations sample as defined in Inspection Procedure (IP) 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Readiness for Impending Adverse Weather Condition-Extreme Cold Conditions

a. Inspection Scope

Since extreme cold conditions were forecast in the vicinity of the facility for the week of January 10, 2016, the inspectors reviewed the licensee's overall preparations/protection for the expected weather conditions. On January 13, the inspectors walked down the Unit 1 and Unit 2 station blackout diesel generators and the station blackout battery rooms because their safety functions could be affected or required as a result of the extreme cold conditions forecast for the facility. The inspectors observed insulation, heat trace circuits, space heater operation, and weatherized enclosures to ensure operability of affected systems. The inspectors reviewed licensee procedures and discussed potential compensatory measures with control room personnel. The inspectors focused on plant management's actions for implementing the station's procedures for ensuring adequate personnel for safe plant operation and emergency response would be available. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this

report. This inspection constituted one readiness for impending adverse weather condition sample as defined in IP 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Readiness for Impending Adverse Weather Condition-Severe Thunderstorm Watch

a. Inspection Scope

Since severe weather with the potential for tornados and high winds was forecast in the vicinity of the facility for March 15 and 16, 2016, the inspectors reviewed the licensee's overall preparations/protection for the expected weather conditions. On March 15 and 16, 2016, the inspectors walked down the licensee's emergency alternating current power systems, because their safety-related functions could be affected or required as a result of high winds or tornado-generated missiles or the loss of offsite power. The inspectors evaluated the licensee staff's preparations against the site's procedures and determined that the staff's actions were adequate. During the inspection, the inspectors focused on plant-specific design features and the licensee's procedures used to respond to specified adverse weather conditions. The inspectors also toured the plant grounds to look for any loose debris that could become missiles during a tornado. The inspectors evaluated operator staffing and accessibility of controls and indications for those systems required to control the plant. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the UFSAR and performance requirements for systems selected for inspection, and verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant specific procedures. The inspectors also reviewed a sample of CAP items to verify that the licensee identified adverse weather issues at an appropriate threshold and dispositioned them through the CAP in accordance with station corrective action procedures. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.

6 This inspection constituted one readiness for impending adverse weather condition sample as defined in IP 71111.01-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R04 Equipment Alignment

.1 Quarterly Partial System Walkdowns

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant systems:

  • Unit 1 RCIC system during Unit 1 HPCI system planned maintenance; and
  • Unit 2 fuel pool cooling and reactor building closed cooling water systems during Unit 2 refueling outage Q2R23. The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the Reactor Safety Cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted to identify any discrepancies that could impact the function of the system and, therefore, potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, system diagrams, UFSAR, Technical Specification (TS) requirements, outstanding work orders (WOs), condition reports, and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of performing their intended functions. The inspectors also walked down accessible portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the components and observed operating parameter s of equipment to verify that there were no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the CAP with the appropriate significance characterization. Documents reviewed are listed in the to this report. These activities constituted three partial system walkdown samples as defined in IP 71111.04-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Semi-Annual Complete System Walkdown

a. Inspection Scope

From February 1-20, 2016, the inspectors performed a complete system alignment inspection of the Unit 2 RCIC system to verify the functional capability of the system.

7 This system was selected because it was considered both safety significant and risk significant in the licensee's probabilistic risk assessment. The inspectors walked down the system to review mechanical and electrical equipment lineups; electrical power availability; system pressure and temperature indications, as appropriate; component labeling; component lubrication; component and equipment cooling; hangers and supports; operability of support systems; and to ensure that ancillary equipment or debris did not interfere with equipment operation. A review of a sample of past and outstanding WOs was performed to determine whether any deficiencies significantly affected the system function. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the CAP database to ensure that system equipment alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. These activities constituted one complete system walkdown sample as defined in IP 71111.04-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R05 Fire Protection

.1 Routine Resident Inspector Tours

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors conducted fire protection walkdowns which were focused on availability, accessibility, and the condition of firefighting equipment in the following risk-significant plant areas:

  • Fire Zone (FZ) 7.2, Unit 2 Turbine Building (TB), Elevation 628'-6", 250 V Battery Room;
  • FZ 8.2.6.D, Unit 2 TB, Elevation 595'-0", Low Pressure Heater Bay and FZ 8.2.7.D, Unit 2 TB, Elevation 608'-6", Low Pressure Heater Bay (West);
  • FZ 1.2.2, Unit 2 Reactor Building, Elevation 544'-0"/666'-6", Drywell & Drywell Expansion Gap; and
  • FZ 8.2.10, Unit 2 TB, Elevation 626'-6", Fan Floor/Steam Jet Air Ejectors. The inspectors reviewed areas to assess if the licensee had implemented a fire protection program that adequately controlled combustibles and ignition sources within the plant, effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability, maintained passive fire protection features in good material condition, and implemented adequate compensatory measures for out-of-service, degraded or inoperable fire protection equipment, systems, or features in accordance with the licensee's fire plan. The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk as documented in the plant's Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later additional insights, their potential to impact equipment which could initiate or mitigate a plant transient, or their impact on the plant's ability to respond to a security event. Using the documents listed in the Attachment to this report, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed; that transient material loading was within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to be in satisfactory condition. The inspectors also verified that minor 8 issues identified during the inspection were entered into the licensee's CAP. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. These activities constituted four quarterly fire protection inspection samples as defined in IP 71111.05-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R06 Flooding

.1 Internal Flooding

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed selected risk important plant design features and licensee procedures intended to protect the plant and its safety-related equipment from internal flooding events. The inspectors reviewed flood analyses and design documents, including the UFSAR, engineering calculations, and abnormal operating procedures to identify licensee commitments. The specific documents reviewed are listed in the to this report. In addition, the inspectors reviewed licensee drawings to identify areas and equipment that may be affected by internal flooding caused by the failure or misalignment of nearby sources of water, such as the fire suppression or the circulating water systems. The inspectors also reviewed the licensee's corrective action documents with respect to past flood-related items identified in the corrective action program to verify the adequacy of the corrective actions. The inspectors performed a walkdown of the following plant areas to assess the adequacy of watertight doors and verify drains and sumps were clear of debris and were operable, and that the licensee complied with its commitments:

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R08 Inservice Inspection Activities

From March 21-25, 2016, the inspectors conducted a review of the implementation of the licensee's Inservice Inspection (ISI) Program for monitoring degradation of the Unit 2 reactor coolant system, risk-significant piping and components, and containment systems. The inspections described in Sections 1R08.1 and 1R08.5 below constituted one sample as defined in IP 71111.08-05.

.1 Piping Systems Inservice Inspection

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors either observed or reviewed the following Non-Destructive Examinations (NDE) mandated by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME),Section XI Code to evaluate compliance with the ASME Code Section XI and Section V requirements, and if any indications and defects were detected to determine if these were dispositioned in accordance with the ASME Code or a U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)-approved alternative requirement:

  • Dye penetrant examination and magnetic particle examination of welded pipe lugs (1024A-W-201A) in the residual heat removal system. The inspectors observed the following NDE conducted as part of the licensee's Industry Initiative Inspection Programs for managing vessel internals cracking to determine whether the examinations were conducted in accordance with the licensee's Augmented Inspection Program, industry guidance documents and associated licensee examination procedures, and if any indications and defects were detected to determine whether these were dispositioned in accordance with approved procedures and NRC requirements:
  • UT examination of a tee-to-valve weld (02BS-F6) in the reactor recirculation system to meet inspection requirements for Category D welds in accordance with BWRVIP-75a "BWR Vessel and Internals Project, Technical Basis for Revisions to Generic Letter 88-01 Inspection Schedules," and
  • In-vessel remote underwater visual EVT-1 examination of Jet Pump No. 10 Welds AD-2 and DF-2 to meet the reactor pressure vessel, Internals Examination Guidelines - Electric Power Research Institute Report TR-105696 (BWRVIP-03 "BWR Vessel and Internals Project, Reactor Pressure Vessel and Internals Examination Guidelines"). During NDE performed since the previous refueling outage, the licensee had not identified any recordable indications. Therefore, no NRC review was completed for this inspection procedure attribute.

The inspectors reviewed records for the following pressure boundary weld repairs completed for risk-significant systems during the last outage to determine whether the licensee applied the pre-service NDE and acceptance criteria required by the Construction Code, and/or the NRC-approved Code relief request. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the welding procedure specifications and supporting weld procedure qualification records to determine whether the weld procedures were qualified in accordance with the requirements of the Construction Code and the ASME Code, Section IX:

  • Installation of a 2-to-1 fillet weld at socket welds 1 through 21 on the Unit 2 reactor head vent line 2-0215-2"-B (WO No. 01636434).

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Reactor Pressure Vessel Upper Head Penetration Inspection Activities (Not Applicable) .3 Boric Acid Corrosion Control (Not Applicable) .4 Steam Generator Tube Inspection Activities (Not Applicable) .5 Identification and Resolution of Problems

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a review of ISI-related problems entered into the licensee's CAP, and conducted interviews with licensee staff to determine if:

  • the licensee had established an appropriate threshold for identifying ISI-related problems;
  • the licensee had performed a root cause (if applicable), and taken appropriate corrective actions; and
  • the licensee had evaluated operating experience, and industry generic issues related to ISI and pressure boundary integrity. The inspectors performed these reviews to evaluate compliance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," requirements. The corrective action documents reviewed by the inspectors are listed in the Attachment to this report.

b. Findings

1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness

.1 Routine Quarterly Evaluations

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors evaluated degraded performance issues involving the following risk-significant systems:

12

  • fire protection system-diesel driven fire pumps; and
  • control room emergency ventilation system. The inspectors reviewed events such as where ineffective equipment maintenance had resulted in valid or invalid automatic actuations of engineered safeguards systems and independently verified the licensee's actions to address system performance or condition problems in terms of the following:
  • implementing appropriate work practices;
  • identifying and addressing common cause failures;
  • scoping of systems in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65(b) of the maintenance rule;
  • characterizing system reliability issues for performance;
  • charging unavailability for performance;
  • trending key parameters for condition monitoring;
  • verifying appropriate performance criteria for structures, systems, and components/functions classified as (a)(2), or appropriate and adequate goals and corrective actions for systems classified as (a)(1). The inspectors assessed performance issues with respect to the reliability, availability, and condition monitoring of the system. In addition, the inspectors verified maintenance effectiveness issues were entered into the CAP with the appropriate significance characterization. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This inspection constituted two quarterly maintenance effectiveness samples as defined in IP 71111.12-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control

.1 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's evaluation and management of plant risk for the maintenance and emergent work activities affecting risk-significant and safety-related equipment listed below to verify that the appropriate risk assessments were performed

prior to removing equipment for work:

  • Work week 16-08-11: Unit 1 online risk change to yellow for planned HPCI maintenance, Unit 2 online risk change to yellow due to RCIC planned maintenance, and both units risk change to yellow due to planned secondary 13 containment breaches and 125 Volts direct current (Vdc) planned maintenance, and anticipated high winds;
  • Work week 16-12-02: Unit 1 online risk yellow due to outage electrical work on Unit 2 and shutdown safety risk for Unit 2 during Q2R23; and
  • Work week 16-13-03: Online risk for Unit 1 and shutdown safety risk for Unit 2 during Q2R23. These activities were selected based on their potential risk significance relative to the Reactor Safety Cornerstones. As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified that risk assessments were performed as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) and were accurate and complete. When emergent work was performed, the inspectors verified that the plant risk was promptly reassessed and managed. The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance work, discussed the results of the assessment with the licensee's probabilistic risk analyst or shift technical advisor, and verified plant conditions were consistent with the risk assessment. The inspectors also reviewed TS requirements and walked down portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk analysis assumptions were valid and applicable requirements were met. Documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the Attachment to this report. These maintenance risk assessments and emergent work control activities constituted six samples as defined in IP 71111.13-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R15 Operability Determinations and Functional Assessments

.1 Operability Evaluations

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the following issues:

  • Issue Report (IR) 2605486: Containment Atmosphere Monitors (CAM) Pressure Switch 1-2540-16A and Pressure Switch 1-2540-17A out of tolerance;
  • IR 2620481: Unexpected Alarm 901-8 A-9, 125 Vdc Battery Charger 1 Trip;
  • IR 2625262: RCIC MO 1-1301-17 Breaker Tripped Following Troubleshooting and IR 2625523: Suspected Backseat Overthrust of RCIC Steam Line Outboard Primary Containment Isolation Valve;
  • IR 2612976: QCOS 5750-16 Test Methodology Issue; and
  • IR 2639451: 901-3 F-14 HPCI Lo Flow and Motor Gear Unit (MGU) Not at High Speed Stop Alarm Unexpected and IR 2641889: Unexpected Results from Trouble Shooting U1 HPCI MGU. The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk significance of the associated components and systems. The inspectors evaluated the technical adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that TS operability was properly justified and the 14 subject component or system remained available such that no unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the TS and UFSAR to the licensee's evaluations to determine whether the components or systems were operable. Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled. The inspectors determined, where appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to verify that the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with operability evaluations. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This operability inspection constituted five samples as defined in IP 71111.15-05.

b. Findings

(1) Failure to Control Deviation from Environmental Qualification Standard Resulted in Limit Switch Submergence
Introduction:

A finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," was self-revealed on February 2, 2016, when the control room received an alarm due to a steam leak in the Unit 1 main steam isolation valve (MSIV) room which resulted in the limit switch compartment for the Unit 1 RCIC system motor-operated valve (MOV), MO 1-1301-17 (outboard primary containment steam isolation valve), becoming submerged with water. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that deviations from design standard, "Environmental Qualification (EQ) Standard 74Q (EQ-74Q)," were controlled during original installation of MO 1-1301-17 such that the valve would not be subjected to a spray or submergence environment.

Description:

On February 2, 2016, Unit 2 received an unexpected level III ground alarm for the Unit 2 250 Vdc system that supplies power to various Unit 1, Division II, 250 Vdc loads. Following receipt of the alarm, the licensee entered its procedures to troubleshoot and isolate the ground on the 250 Vdc system. The licensee's troubleshooting identified a ground existed in the control circuit for MO 1-1301-17, the outboard primary containment steam isolation valve. The licensee entered the Unit 1 MSIV room to inspect MO 1-1301-17 and identified a steam leak from a through-wall hole in a main steam line drain pipe. The licensee noted that the steam leak was being condensed by the MSIV room cooler and spraying onto MO 1-1301-17. The licensee repaired the steam leak on February 5, 2016. On February 4, 2016, the licensee declared MO 1-1301-17 inoperable and performed a Megger test on the valve circuitry in an attempt to eliminate the ground and remove any moisture potentially contributing to the fault in the circuit. However, the licensee's attempts to eliminate the ground were unsuccessful and the fault remained on the system.

Following their attempts to eliminate the ground, the licensee performed post-maintenance testing on MO 1-1307-17 by stroking it in the closed and open directions. The licensee was able to successfully stroke the valve to the closed position. However, during the stroke test in the open direction, the valve over-traveled into its backseat until the valve's motor tripped on thermal overload. The licensee performed an investigation and discovered water had accumulated in the valve's limit switch compartment, submerged the components inside, and generated a fault in the open 15 circuit of the valve. The water was removed from the compartment and the components allowed to dry. The valve was stroked again in the open and closed directions with no issues; in addition, the fault alarm associated with the ground on the Unit 2 250 Vdc system cleared. The licensee declared t he MOV and RCIC system operable following the successful test. The licensee concluded that operability of MO 1-1301-17 had not been previously impacted since the normally open valve demonstrated it was capable of performing its primary containment isolation safety function to close when it was successfully stroked in the closed direction.

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's EQ documents, EQ-74Q, and noted that MO 1-1301-17 was not required to have drains or weep holes installed based on not being in an environment that would subject it to spray or submergence. Valve MO 1-1301-17 was installed in a location in the MSIV room that subjected it to spray and condensation from an area room cooler during normal operation of the plant. The steam leak in the room was not recognized by the licensee until after they investigated the ground alarm on the 250 Vdc system. The inability to identify this steam leak in a timely manner allowed the steam leak to condense and spray onto MO 1-1301-17 for a period long enough to fill up the limit switch compartment and submerge the components inside. The inspectors determined the licensee failed to control deviations from EQ-74Q when it was installed in a location outside of containment that was susceptible to spray and submergence because MO 1-1301-17 was not designed to be in a spray environment, or designed for submergence.

Analysis:

The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to assure that any deviations from EQ-74Q were properly controlled such that the valve would not be subject to a spray or submergence environment was contrary to the requirements of 10 CFR Appendix B, Criterion III, and was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor and a finding because it was associated with the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone attribute of Design Control and affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers (fuel cladding, reactor coolant system, and containment) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the failure to control any EQ design deviations had the potential to impact the ability of MO 1-1301-17 primary containment isolation valve to close on an isolation signal and prevent radioactive releases to the environment.

The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the Significance Determination Process in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power," issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with Exhibit 3, "Barrier Integrity Screening Questions," because the inspectors answered "No" to all questions in Section B of Exhibit 3. This finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect because the performance deficiency was not indicative of current performance.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that measures be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. It further requires, in part, that these measures include provisions to 16 assure that appropriate quality standards are specified and included in design documents and that deviations from such standards are controlled. Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, Section 3.11, discusses the EQ of electrical equipment. Section 3.11.3 states, in part, "The EQ Binders provide documentation of evaluations, analyses, and test results to show that pertinent electrical equipment is environmentally qualified to perform intended functions for its qualified life plus post-design basis event exposure." Binder EQ-74Q, Section 17.5, states, "The limitorque operators installed outside containment are not subjected to spray. Therefore, spray qualification is not required." Contrary to the above, during the original installation of Unit 1 RCIC MO 1-1301-17 until February 2, 2016, the licensee failed to establish provisions to assure deviations from EQ-74Q were controlled such that the valve would not be subject to a spray or submergence environment. Specifically, MO 1-1301-17 was installed beneath an area room cooler and in the vicinity of main steam piping such that when a steam leak developed in the area, the room cooler condensed the steam and sprayed onto the valve, resulting in submergence of components inside the valve's limit switch compartment.

As part of their corrective actions, the licensee performed a temporary repair of the steam leak and implemented compensatory measures to perform daily monitoring for steam leaks in the Unit 1 MSIV room. In addition, the licensee performed an

extent-of-condition review of other valves in the MSIV room. Planned corrective actions included installing t-drains or weep holes in MOVs that the licensee deemed susceptible to spray or submergence. This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. The violation was entered into the licensee's CAP as IR 2625523.

1R19 Post-Maintenance Testing

.1 Post-Maintenance Testing

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the following post-maintenance activities to verify that procedures and test activities were adequate to ensure system operability and functional capability:

  • Safe shutdown makeup pump flow rate test following system planned maintenance;
  • 'A' Standby Gas Treatment (SBGT) system operational test following 'A' SBGT cable inspection; and
  • Calibration and system functional testi ng following HPCI MGU signal converter replacement. These activities were selected based upon the structure, system, or component's ability to impact risk. The inspectors evaluated these activities for the following (as applicable): the effect of testing on the plant had been adequately addressed; testing was adequate 17 for the maintenance performed; acceptance criteria were clear and demonstrated operational readiness; test instrumentation was appropriate; tests were performed as

written in accordance with properly reviewed and approved procedures; equipment was returned to its operational status following testing (temporary modifications or jumpers required for test performance were properly removed after test completion); and test

documentation was properly evaluated. The inspectors evaluated the activities against TSs, the UFSAR, 10 CFR Part 50 requirements, licensee procedures, and various NRC generic communications to ensure that the test results adequately ensured that the equipment met the licensing basis and design requirements. In addition, the inspectors reviewed corrective action documents associated with post-maintenance tests to determine whether the licensee was identifying problems and entering them in the CAP and that the problems were being corrected commensurate with their importance to safety. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This inspection constituted four post-maintenance testing samples as defined in IP 71111.19-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R20 Outage Activities

.1 Refueling Outage Activities

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the Outage Safety Plan (OSP) and contingency plans for the Unit 2 refueling outage (RFO) Q2R23, which began on March 21, 2016, to confirm that the licensee had appropriately considered risk, industry experience, and previous site-specific problems in developing and implementing a plan that assured maintenance of defense-in-depth. During the RFO, the inspectors observed portions of the shutdown and cooldown processes and monitored licensee controls over the outage activities listed below:

  • licensee configuration management, including maintenance of defense-in-depth commensurate with the OSP for key safety functions and compliance with the applicable TS when taking equipment out of service;
  • implementation of clearance activities and confirmation that tags were properly hung and equipment appropriately configured to safely support the work or testing;
  • installation and configuration of reactor coolant pressure, level, and temperature instruments to provide accurate indication, accounting for instrument error;

1EP4 Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the licensee's root cause investigation, conducted interviews with licensee staff, and reviewed related documents to evaluate the licensee's Emergency Action Levels (EALs) associated with the minimum steam cooling reactor pressure vessel water level (MSCRWL). The inspectors also consulted with NRC regional operator licensing staff to assist in the review of the licensee's assessment and calculations. The inspectors' review focused on an issue of concern with the licensee not maintaining the EALs, which appeared to result in an over-classification of a General Emergency and unnecessary Protective Action Recommendations. The issue of concern was documented as an Unresolved Item in NRC Inspection Report 05000254/2015004; 05000265/2015004, pending additional information to determine whether a performance deficiency that is more than minor exists and if a violation of 20 Title 10 CFR Part 50.54(q)(2), which requires a licensee to develop and maintain an emergency plan that meets the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.47(b), and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, had occurred.

Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report.

The review of the licensee's evaluation counted as a partial inspection sample. The entire inspection sample required by IP 71114.04 will be completed by the end of calendar year 2016.

b. Findings

(1) (Closed) Unresolved Item 05000254/2015004-01; 05000265/2015004-01: Emergency Action Level Threshold Values Were Not Revised

Introduction:

A licensee-identified finding of minor significance and an associated minor violation of 10 CFR 50.54 (q)(2) was identified on April 29, 2015. While reviewing the Action Tracking System, the licensee determined that the Quad Cities General Abnormal (QGA) procedures were revised without revising the corresponding EALs.

Description:

On March 12, 2015, the QGAs were revised with a new value for MSCRWL. However, the site EALs that should have used the revised QGA value as an EAL threshold value were not revised. The licensee scheduled the revisions of the QGAs to support implementation of changes that were associated with the diverse and flexible coping strategies implementation and the site's transition to new Optima2 fuel. These changes were scheduled to be implemented in March 2015 during the Quad Cities Unit 1 RFO as part of a revision package. Because of the new fuel, the MSCRWL value changed from -166 inches to -190 inches. On April 29, 2015, the licensee reviewed the action tracking documents to determine if an extension for revising their EALs was necessary. During this review, the licensee identified that the EALs were not changed to correspond with the new MSCRWL values incorporated in the QGAs. The licensee's EALs MG2 and FG1, which determine if a General Emergency should be declared based on the MSCRWL value, were affected by the change. Since the value in the EALs remained at -166 inches, the licensee concluded that the issue could have potentially caused, under certain conditions, the site to declare a General Emergency earlier than needed and to issue an unnecessary Protective Action Recommendation (PAR) to the public. Following identification of the issue, the licensee implemented the appropriate changes to EALs MG2 and FG1 on April 30, 2015. Since there was a discrepancy between the QGAs and the EAL threshold values that could have affected the timely and accurate classification of a General Emergency, additional information was needed to complete the inspector's assessment and the unresolved item (URI) was opened in fourth Quarter 2015. The licensee revised the original root cause evaluation, which was completed on February 18, 2016. The licensee conducted calculations to determine the amount

of time it would take MSCRWL to decrease from -166 inches to -190 inches for a postulated accident scenario. The results were that it would take approximately 3 minutes for reactor vessel water level to reach -190 inches. During the time the EALs and QGAs did not have the same MSCRWL value and under these accident conditions, if the licensee had declared a General Emergency and issued PARs, the calculations show that it would only be a few minutes until the actual EAL threshold value would 21 have been reached. According to the evaluation, for this type of accident, the water level would not be able to be restored and would decrease to -190 inches in a short

amount of time; therefore, the General Emergency declaration would be timely and accurate and the PARs would be necessary. The licensee determined the root cause of this issue to be the QGA procedure change process. The licensee's corrective action to prevent recurrence was a change to the procedure to include Emergency Preparedness staff review of emergency operating procedure changes.

Analysis:

In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix B, "Issue Screening," the inspectors reviewed the More than Minor questions to determine if the performance deficiency was more than minor. The inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was associated with the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone; however, it did not adversely affect the cornerstone objective. Specifically, the deficiency would not result in an unnecessary or untimely declaration of an emergency. Therefore, the performance deficiency is minor.

Enforcement:

Title 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) requires the licensee to develop and maintain an emergency plan that meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b), and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E. Between March 12, 2015, and April 30, 2015, the licensee failed to maintain its emergency plan, in that, it did not make changes to their EALs when the QGAs were revised with a new MSCRWL level. Upon discovery, the licensee promptly changed the EAL MSCRWL value and implemented corrective actions to prevent recurrence. The failure to comply with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) constitutes a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy. As a result of the inspectors' conclusion, this URI is closed.

1EP6 Drill Evaluation

.1 Emergency Preparedness Drill Observation

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors evaluated the conduct of a routine licensee emergency drill on February 10, 2016, to identify any weaknesses and deficiencies in classification, notification, and protective action recommendation development activities. The inspectors observed emergency response operations in the Technical Support Center and Operations Support Center to determine whether the event classification, notifications, and protective action recommendations were performed in accordance with procedures. The inspectors also attended the licensee drill critique to compare any inspector-observed weakness with those identified by the licensee staff in order to evaluate the critique and to verify whether the licensee staff was properly identifying weaknesses and entering them into the CAP. As part of the inspection, the inspectors reviewed the drill package and other documents listed in the Attachment to this report. This emergency preparedness drill inspection constituted one sample as defined in IP 71114.06-06.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems

.1 Routine Review of Items Entered into the Corrective Action Program

a. Inspection Scope

As part of the various baseline inspection procedures discussed in previous sections of this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify they were being entered into the licensee's CAP at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and addressed. Attributes reviewed included: identification of the problem was complete and accurate; timeliness was commensurate with the safety significance; evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent-of-condition reviews, and previous occurrences reviews were proper and adequate; and that the classification, prioritization, focus, and timeliness of corrective actions were commensurate with safety and sufficient to prevent recurrence of the issue. Minor issues entered into the licensee's CAP as a result of the inspectors' observations are included in the Attachment to this report. These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure they were considered an integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter and documented in Section 1 of this report.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews

a. Inspection Scope

In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into the licensee's CAP. This review was accomplished through inspection of the station's daily condition report packages. These daily reviews were performed by procedure as part of the inspectors' daily plant status monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues:

Review of Enforcement Discretion Non-Cited Violations Identified During the Quad Cities 2013 Cyber-Security Inspection 2013408 and Associated Corrective Action Documents

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors performed a review of the licensee's CAP and associated documents, specifically:

  • IR 1552033, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 2";
  • IR 1577638, "Cyber-Security-Data Diode Bypass Identified";
  • IR 1576023, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 3 Data Diode KVM [Keyboard, Video and Mouse]";
  • IR 1552034, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 3"; IR 1582784, "Cyber-Security-DTE [Digital Test Equipment] Scanning Guidance Inadequate";
  • IR 1587829, "Cyber-Security-Interim Resolution for DTE Scan Exemption"; and
  • IR 1552042, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 7." The inspectors interviewed personnel, verified the completion of and assessed the adequacy of the corrective actions taken in response to two NRC identified NCVs and five licensee-identified NCVs given enforcement discretion. The inspectors' review and evaluation was focused on the NRC and licensee-identified cyber-security NCVs to ensure corrective actions were: complete, accurate, and timely; considered extent of condition; provided appropriate classification and prioritization; provided identification of root and contributing causes; appropriately focused; action taken resulted in the correction of the identified problem; identified negative trends; operating experience was adequately evaluated for applicability; and applicable lessons learned were communicated to appropriate organizations.

25 Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment. This review constituted one annual follow-up of selected issues sample as defined in IP 71152-05. b. Background In accordance with Title 10 CFR Part 73, Section 54, "Protection of Digital Computer and Communication Systems and Networks (i.e., the Cyber-Security Rule)," each

nuclear power plant licensee was required to submit to the NRC for review and approval a cyber-security plan (CSP) and an associated implementation schedule by November 23, 2009. Temporary Instruction 2201/004, "Inspection of Implementation of Interim Cyber Security Milestones 1-7,"

was developed to evaluate and verify each nuclear power plant licensee's ability to meet the interim milestone requirements of the Cyber-Security Rule. On November 22, 2013, the NRC completed an inspection at the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2, which evaluated the interim cyber-security Milestones 1-7. During performance of the temporary instruction, seven NCVs were identified and incorporated into the licensee's CAP. These seven NCVs were subsequently given enforcement discretion following the security issues forum (SIF) meeting conducted on December 18, 2013. During the week of March 7, 2016, the inspectors reviewed the cyber-security Milestones 1-7 Inspection NCVs as a PI&R

sample. The CAP documents were evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the licensee's corrective actions. c. Observations As discussed in the "Inspection Scope" section above, the inspectors' review was focused on the licensee's actions to ensure the NCVs corrective actions were appropriately focused to correct the identified problems. In addition, during the inspectors' review of the cyber-security inspection's corrective action documents, the following three observations were identified:

  • The inspectors' review of IR 1576023, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 3 Data Diode KVM"; dated October 24, 2013, revealed the KVM scope of work was not scheduled to be completed until March 31, 2017, during installation of Engineering Change 393740, "Cyber-Security Defensive Architecture Enhancement."
  • The inspectors' review of IR 1552042, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 7," dated August 29, 2013, showed the IR status as complete. However, IR 2616614, "Cyber Security-Plan Element Not Addressed," revealed a review of CC-AA-600, "Nuclear Cyber-Security Program," was required to be completed by the licensee to ensure all elements of the CSP, Section 4.4.3.1, "Effectiveness Requirements," and CSP Section 4.4.3.2, "Vulnerability Scans,"

were addressed related to Milestone 7.

  • The inspectors' review of IR 1552033, "Cyber-Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 2," dated August 29, 2013, and IR 1552034, "Cyber Security Lessons Learned: Milestone 3," dated August 29, 2013, showed that both IRs were closed to the Byron IR 1522309, "Cyber Security: Scoping of Physical Security Digital Assets," dated June 6, 2013, where the status shown was open. Since the status of this issue remained open, the inspectors discussed the issue during a SIF meeting conducted on March 16, 2016, to determine the path forward.

During the SIF discussions, the inspectors became aware of ongoing interactions between the NRC headquarters staff, the NEI, and the industry to resolve generic 26 issues associated with the Milestone 1-7 inspections. These issues included the access authorization process, Personnel Access Data System, access control for portable and mobile devices, one-way deterministic devices placed at the data diode boundary, maintenance and test equipment, hybrid communication pathways, and moving data or software between security levels. Since these issues are in the process of being resolved through the Security Frequently Asked Question process, the review and evaluation of the licensee's corrective actions will be conducted during a subsequent PI&R sample or during the Milestone 8, full implementation inspection.

d. Findings

No findings were identified.

.4 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues:

250 Vdc Cubicle Replacement

a. Inspection Scope

During a review of items entered in the licensee's CAP, the inspectors recognized several corrective action items documenting deficiencies during the replacement of safety-related 250 Vdc cubicles. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed IRs 1488476, 1488497, 1483844, 1484182, 1484699, and 1489499. During refueling outage Q1R22 the licensee replaced safety related 250 Vdc cubicles as part of a planned maintenance activity. During the replacement of these cubicles degraded wiring was found in the existing cubicles. In addition, deficiencies were found in the replacement cubicles such as mis-wiring, loose connections, and non-conforming auxiliary contacts. The inspectors assessed the following attributes while reviewing the licensee's corrective actions associated with the issue:

  • the identified problem was documented in the CAP in a complete, accurate, and timely manner;
  • operability and reportability issues were evaluated and dispositioned in a timely manner;
  • extent of condition, generic implications, and previous occurrences were considered;
  • corrective actions were appropriately focused to correct the problem;
  • corrective actions were completed in a timely manner commensurate with the safety significance of the issue;
  • action taken resulted in the correction of the identified problem;
  • operating experience was adequately evaluated for applicability; and
  • applicable lessons learned were communicated to appropriate organizations and implemented.

This review constituted one annual follow-up of selected issues sample as defined in IP 71152-05.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.5 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues:

HFA Relay Material Discrepancies Identified

a. Inspection Scope

During a review of items entered in the licensee's CAP, the inspectors recognized several corrective action items documenting deficiencies of safety-related HFA relays that were found during periodic inspections performed as part of Unit 2 RFO Q2R23.

Specifically, there were five, normally energized, reactor protection system relays that appeared to have coils that were made of lexan or nylon.

The inspectors assessed the following attributes while reviewing the licensee's corrective actions associated with the issue:

  • the identified problem was documented in the CAP in a complete, accurate, and timely manner;
  • operability and reportability issues were evaluated and dispositioned in a timely manner;
  • extent of condition, generic implications, and previous occurrences were considered;
  • corrective actions were appropriately focused to correct the problem;
  • corrective actions were completed in a timely manner commensurate with the safety significance of the issue;
  • action taken resulted in the correction of the identified problem;
  • operating experience was adequately evaluated for applicability; and
  • applicable lessons learned were communicated to appropriate organizations and implemented. The inspectors noted that the licensee's evaluation of the issue stated that according to licensee procedure QCEPM 0700-03, "HFA Relay Inspection," the coils should be replaced regardless of condition at the next available opportunity for coils that are normally energized. The licensee determined that these relays could be replaced during the next refueling outage (scheduled for 2018). The inspectors were aware that there was a historical issue with HFA relay coil material and investigated further. The inspectors questioned the licensee on their re sponse to NRC Bulletin 84-02, "Failures of General Electric Type HFA Relays in Use in Class 1E Safety Systems." The licensee stated that as part of their response to the bulletin, the station replaced all HFA relays

that were made of lexan or nylon with newer Century Series relays that were not susceptible to the failures identified in Bulletin 84-02. The inspectors questioned the licensee on the age of the relays identified in the issue reports, whether they should have been identified during the station response to the bulletin, and what justification they had to wait an additional 2 years to replace the relays (based on the failure rate information identified in the bulletin). In response to the inspectors' questions, the licensee directed engineering to walk down the identified relays and conduct a visual inspection. Engineering reviews and walkdowns determined that the identified relays were, in fact, the newer style Century Series relays and had been replaced according to their preventative maintenance template. The licensee planned a procedure change to QCEPM 0700-03 in order to make it clear how to identify lexan and/ or nylon relay coils versus Century Series relays and coils.

28 Documents reviewed during this inspection are included in the Attachment. This review constituted one annual follow-up of selected issues sample as defined in IP 71152-05.

.6 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues:

250 Vdc Grounds

a. Inspection Scope

During a review of items entered in the licensee's CAP, the inspectors recognized several IRs documenting repetitive, and eventually continuous, grounds on the safety-related 250 Vdc system on Unit 2. Ground troubleshooting and investigation by the licensee determined the ground was on the Unit 1 (Division II) RCIC MO 1-1301-17 valve open circuitry. The inspectors assessed the following attributes while reviewing the licensee's corrective actions associated with the issue:

  • the identified problem was documented in the CAP in a complete, accurate, and timely manner;
  • operability and reportability issues were evaluated and dispositioned in a timely manner;
  • extent of condition, generic implications, and previous occurrences were considered;
  • corrective actions were appropriately focused to correct the problem;

4OA3 Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion

.1 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000254/2015-010:

Loss of Control Room Emergency Ventilation System Due to Differential Pressure Switch (DPS) Failure

a. Inspection Scope

On December 7, 2015, Operations attempted to start the safety-related 'B' train of the control room emergency ventilation (CREV) system when it failed to start. The licensee declared the 'B' CREV system inoperable and started the nonsafety-related 'A' train of the control room heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. The 29 licensee's apparent cause evaluation (ACE) determined that the differential pressure switch, DPS 0-5795-50, which interlocks the 'A' control room HVAC and the 'B' CREV system, had failed and prevented the 'B' CREV system from performing its function. The licensee reported this event to the NRC (see Event Notification 51589) as an event or condition that could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's apparent cause evaluation and identified a finding and violation as documented below. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This licensee event report (LER) is closed. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.

b. Findings

(1) Failure to Identify Structures, Systems, and Components as Safety-Related
Introduction:

A finding of very low safety significance and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, "Quality Assurance," was identified by the inspectors for the licensee's failure to identify the structures, systems, and components to be covered by the quality assurance program, in that they did not properly classify a component of the CREV system as safety-related.

Description:

On December 7, 2015, Operations personnel performed testing of the CREV system. When attempting to start the 'B' or safety-related train of the system, it failed to start. The licensee immediately declared the 'B' CREV system inoperable and started the nonsafety-related 'A' train of the control room HVAC system. The licensee documented this issue in their CAP under IR 2596725 and performed an ACE. The apparent cause determined that DPS 0-5795-50, which interlocked the 'A' control room HVAC and the 'B' CREV system to prevent both starting simultaneously, had failed and prevented the 'B' CREV system from performing its safety function. Title 10 CFR 50.2, "Definitions," states, in part, "Safety-related structures, systems, and components means those structures, systems, and components that are relied upon to remain functional during and following design basis events to assure- the capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition, or to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents which could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to the applicable guideline exposures set forth in § 50.34(a)(1) or § 100.11 of this chapter, as applicable."

Quad Cities UFSAR Section 3.2.7, "Identification of Safety-Related Components of Systems or Structures," states:

Generic Letter 83-28, "Required Actions Based on Generic Implications of Salem ATWS Events," defines safety-related systems and components as those necessary to assure- the capability to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition, or the capability to prevent or mitigate the consequences of accidents which could result in potential offsite exposures comparable to those referred to in 10 CFR 100.11 (or 10 CFR 50.67 as applicable)- [And] detailed application of safety-related classification is identified in the station's work control system data base. The station's work control system data base complies with Generic Letter 83-28 for safety-related equipment classification identification.

30 Licensee procedure CC-AA-304, "Component Classification," is used to provide criteria and methodology used in developing classification of components, including their safety class. Procedure CC-AA-304, Attachment 1, "Component Classification Methodology Flowchart," shows that a component with any safety-related and nonsafety-related interface, or if its failure would prevent any safety-related function, then the component safety class is safety-related. Procedure CC-AA-304, Attachment 3, "Safety-Related and Non-Safety-Related Systems Interface Criteria," states, in part, that the safety-related boundaries of electrical systems include electrical items in safety-related circuits that do not perform a safety-related function but whose failure could prevent the capability of accomplishing any safety-related function.

Based on the above discussion, the inspectors determined that DPS 0-5795-50 should have been classified as safety-related because its failure prevented the fulfillment of the

safety function of 'B' CREVS. Following the event in December, the licensee generated two IRs that captured a concern of the nonsafety-related 'A' control room HVAC component impacting the safety-related 'B' CREV system (IR 2597119, "Requesting MOD for CREV to Increase Reliability," and IR 2597768, "DPS 0-5795-50 for 'A' CREVS Could Lock Out 'B' CREVS"). Each of these IRs were closed to the ACE conducted under IR 2596725. The inspectors noted that the licensee addressed this concern in the ACE under "Other Issues" section. The licensee acknowledged that the nonsafety-related component prevented the safety function of 'B' CREVS and assigned an action tracking item (ACIT) for Engineering to research the viability of installing a DPS bypass with a due date of May 27, 2016.

Exelon procedure PI-AA-125, "Corrective Action Program (CAP) Procedure," defined an ACIT as, "Action items that are completed to improve performance, or correct minor problems that do not represent Conditions Adverse to Quality (CAQ)." Procedure PI-AA-125 defined a CAQ as, "An all-inclusive term used in reference to any of the following: failures, malfunctions, deficiencies, defective items, and non-conformances."

The licensee identified the failure of the DPS as a CAQ, corrected the failure with the use of a corrective action item, and replaced the switch [like for like]; however, the licensee failed to identify that the improper classification of the DPS was a CAQ that needed to be promptly corrected (with a corrective action item versus an ACIT). The inspectors determined that the failure to classify this issue as a CAQ represented a minor performance deficiency because it was administrative in nature.

The inspectors informed the licensee of their concern regarding the DPS safety classification on February 12, 2016, and the licensee subsequently implemented a procedure change (Revision 57) to QCOP 5750-09, "Control Room Ventilation System," on February 19, 2016. The revision added steps to the procedure which directed the operators to identify and lift terminal wires for DPS 0-5795-50 in order to defeat the interlock and allow operation of the safety-related 'B' train of CREV. The procedure change eliminated the need for the DPS to be classified as safety-related because in the event of a failure of the DPS, the system would still be able to perform its safety function.

Analysis:

The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to classify DPS 0-5795-50 as safety-related as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, "Quality Assurance," and defined in UFSAR Section 3.2.7 and Procedure CC-AA-304 was a performance deficiency.

31 The finding was determined to be more than minor because the finding was associated with the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone attribute of Design Control and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the 'B' train of CREVs is a habitability system that is provided to ensure control room operators are able to remain in the control room and operate the plant safely and to maintain the plant in a safe condition under accident conditions. The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the Significance Determination Process in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power," issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with Exhibit 3, "Barrier Integrity Screening Questions," because the finding only represented a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the control room and did not represent a degradation of the barrier function of the control room against smoke or toxic atmosphere. The inspectors did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because it does not reflect current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Title10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion II, "Quality Assurance," requires, in part, that licensees shall identify the structures, systems, and components to be covered by the quality assurance program. Licensee procedure CC-AA-304, "Component Classification," is used to provide criteria and methodology used in developing classification of components, including their safety class. Procedure CC-AA-304, Attachment 3, "Safety-Related and Non-Safety-Related Systems Interface Criteria," states, in part, that the safety-related boundaries of electrical

systems include electrical items in safety-related circuits that do not perform a safety-related function but whose failure could prevent the capability of accomplishing

any safety-related function. Contrary to the above, prior to December 7, 2015, the licensee failed to identify the structures, systems, and components to be covered by the quality assurance program.

Specifically, the differential pressure switch, DPS 0-5795-50, for the air handling unit on the 'A' train of control room HVAC is essential to the safety-related function of the 'B' CREV system and was not designated or installed as safety-related. The failure of nonsafety-related DPS 0-5795-50 prevented the safety-related 'B' train of CREV system from performing its safety function. Immediate corrective actions included replacing DPS 0-5795-50 and revising the control room ventilation procedure to allow operators to disable the interlock between the 'A' and 'B' trains of control room HVAC. The procedure change eliminated the need for the DPS to be classified as safety-related (and therefore corrected the violation)because in the event of a failure of the DPS, the system would still be able to perform its safety function. Because this violation is of very low safety significance and was entered into the licensee's CAP as IR 2596725, this violation is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000254/2016-001:

Secondary Containment Differential Pressure Momentarily Lost Due to Air Line Failure (Reactor Water Cleanup Heat Exchanger Room) On January 12, 2016, the main control room received alarms indicating a low differential pressure in the reactor building. The alarms occurred during an entry into the Unit 2 reactor water cleanup (RWCU) heat exchanger room. Reactor building pressure went positive for approximately 1 minute and impacted both Units 1 and 2 secondary containments since they share a common reactor building. The licensee was able to restore secondary containment negative pressure within 1-2 minutes of pressure going positive by securing a reactor building supply fan. The cause was determined to be a sheared air-line in the Unit 1 reactor building exhaust plenum, which depressurized the air header supplying operating air to all three Unit 1 reactor building exhaust fan isolation dampers, which caused them to fail open, including the standby fan (which contributed to a slow response time of the system due to recirculation through the standby fan exhaust). The licensee's corrective actions included replacing the failed air-line and the addition of planning work to replace similar piping on all equivalent air-lines on both unit supply and exhaust fan dampers. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's significance evaluation as documented in Engineering Change (EC) 404605, "Review of Loss of Secondary Containment Differential Pressure, Revision 0," which determined that secondary containment maintained its safety function during this event. The inspectors determined the safety significance of the event to be minor. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.

.3 (Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000254/2016-002:

Secondary Containment Differential Pressure Momentarily Lost Due to Air Line Failure (Reactor Water Cleanup Pump Room) On January 15, 2016, the main control room received alarms indicating a low differential pressure in the reactor building. The alarms occurred during an entry into the Unit 2 RWCU pump room. Reactor building pressure went positive for approximately 2 minutes without operator action. This event impacted both Units 1 and 2 secondary containments since they share a common reactor building. Secondary containment negative pressure was restored with no operator action within 2-3 minutes of pressure going positive. The cause was determined to be a sheared air-line in the Unit 1 reactor building exhaust plenum, which depressurized the air header supplying operating air to all three Unit 1 reactor building exhaust fan isolation dampers, which caused them to fail open, including the standby fan (which contributed to a slow response time of the system due to recirculation through the standby fan exhaust). This was the same cause (i.e.

same failed air-line) as identified in Section 4OA3.2. At the time of this event, the licensee was in their troubleshooting and monitoring phase from the event on January 12, 2016. The licensee's corrective actions included replacing the failed air-line and the addition of preventive maintenance to replace similar piping on all equivalent air-lines on both unit supply and exhaust fan dampers. The inspectors determined the

safety significance of this event to be minor based on the licensee's evaluation in engineering document EC 404605. Documents reviewed are listed in the Attachment to this report. This LER is closed. This event follow-up review constituted one sample as defined in IP 71153-05.
