SUMMARY

IR 05000313/2014004; 05000368/2014004; 07/01/2014 - 09/30/2014; Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 and 2; Maintenance Effectiveness, Post-Maintenance Testing, Follow-up of Events.

The inspection activities described in this report were performed between July 1 and September 30, 2014, by the resident inspectors at Arkansas Nuclear One and inspectors from the NRC's Region IV office. Three findings of very low safety significance (Green) are documented in this report. All of these findings involved violations of NRC requirements. Additionally, NRC inspectors documented one licensee-identified violation of very low safety significance. The significance of inspection findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red), which is determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process." Their cross-cutting aspects are determined using Inspection Manual Chapter 0310, "Components Within the Cross-Cutting Areas." Violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process."

Cornerstone: Initiating Events

Green.

The inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.4.1.a for the failure to implement procedures for changing load recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 2.f, dated February 1978. Specifically, the licensee did not maintain axial shape index within the limits of the core operating limits report during a rapid power reduction at the end of core life, resulting in an automatic reactor trip. The issue was documented in Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2014-01142.

The inspectors determined that the failure to maintain axial shape index within the limits of the core operating limits report during a rapid power reduction was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the Initiating Events Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge the critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, the failure to maintain axial shape index caused an automatic reactor trip. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power," Exhibit 1, "Initiating Events Screening Questions," the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did cause a reactor trip but did not cause a loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition.

The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with training because the organization did not provide training and ensure knowledge transfer to maintain a knowledgeable, technically competent workforce. Specifically, the operators were not trained to understand the effects of the axial shape index during rapid power reductions with a core at an End-of-Life condition [H.9]. (Section 4OA3)

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

Inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," for the licensee's failure to ensure activities affecting quality were accomplished in accordance with documented instructions. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow Job Order JO-00968863 for replacement of a prop spring in circuit breaker MA137. As a result, the wrong prop spring was replaced, reducing the reliability of the Unit 1 train B decay heat removal pump P-34B and ultimately causing a failure of the pump to start. The licensee corrected the condition by replacing the breaker and returning the pump to service. The issue was documented in Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2013-00701.

The inspectors determined that the failure to follow Job Order JO-00968863 in 1998 for replacement of a prop spring in circuit breaker MA137 was a performance deficiency.

The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and was therefore a finding. Specifically, the failure to replace the appropriate prop spring in 1998 adversely affected the availability and reliability of Unit 1 decay heat removal pump P-34B and caused a failure to start in 2013. In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix G, Attachment 1, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings," Exhibit 3, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent a loss of system safety function and did not represent an actual loss of safety function of at least one train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time.

The inspectors determined that there was no cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the cause of the performance deficiency occurred more than three years ago, and was not representative of current licensee performance. (Section 1R12)

Green.

Inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.4.1.a for the licensee's failure to establish procedures recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 9, February 1978. Specifically, the licensee failed to establish preventative maintenance procedures for valve internal inspection and testing of the Unit 2 main steam isolation valves. On December 23, 2013, the train A main steam isolation valve (2CV-1010-1) was declared Inoperable due to the valve sticking at fifteen percent open on multiple stroke attempts. The licensee's cause evaluation identified that mechanical binding and corrosion of the valve internals were results of a lack of preventive maintenance. The licensee repaired the 2CV-1010-1 valve and performed subsequent testing to demonstrate Operability. The issue was documented in Condition Report CR-ANO-2-2013-02502.

The inspectors determined that the failure to establish preventative maintenance procedures for valve internal inspection and testing of the Unit 2 main steam isolation valves was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor because it was associated with the procedure quality attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and is therefore a finding. Specifically, the lack of preventative maintenance adversely affected the reliability of the main steam isolation valve 2CV-1010-1 to close within the time assumed in the accident analysis. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power," Exhibit 2, the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent the loss of a system safety function and did not represent an actual loss of safety function of at least one train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time.

The finding was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, in that the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes commensurate with their safety significance.

Specifically, during a previous stroke test of the 2CV-1010-1 valve in 2011, the licensee identified that the valve experienced a sluggish or jerky motion and took longer than normal to open. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program but did not fully evaluate and troubleshoot the condition adverse to quality to ensure resolution of the cause

[P.2]. (Section 1R19)

On September 24, 2014, the inspectors observed an evaluated simulator scenario performed by an operating crew on Unit 1. On July 16, 2014, the inspectors observed an evaluated simulator scenario performed by an operating crew on Unit 2. The inspectors assessed the performance of the operators and the evaluators' critique of their performance.

These activities constitute completion of two quarterly licensed operator requalification program samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.11.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Review of Licensed Operator Performance

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors observed the performance of on-shift licensed operators in the plant's main control room. The inspectors observed the operators' performance of the following activities:

• July 25, 2014, Unit 2, moderator temperature coefficient testing

• August 13, 2014, Unit 1, emergency diesel generator, train B, quarterly test In addition, the inspectors assessed the operators' adherence to plant procedures, including the conduct of operations procedure and other operations department policies.

These activities constitute completion of two quarterly licensed operator performance samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.11.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.3 Biennial Inspection

The licensed operator requalification program involves two training cycles that are conducted over a 2-year period. In the first cycle, the annual cycle, the operators are administered an operating test consisting of job performance measures and simulator scenarios. In the second part of the training cycle, the biennial cycle, operators are administered an operating test and a comprehens ive written examination. During this inspection, Unit 1 was in the first part of the training cycle and Unit 2 was in the second part of the training cycle.

a. Inspection Scope

For Unit 1, inspectors observed portions of their 2014 operating test and 2013 comprehensive written examination. For Unit 2, inspectors observed portions of their 2014 operating test and comprehensive written examination. To assess the performance effectiveness of the licensed operator requalification program, inspectors conducted personnel interviews, reviewed medical records of licensed operators for conformance to license conditions, reviewed the minutes of training review group meetings to assess the responsiveness of the licensed operator requalification program to incorporate the lessons learned from both plant and industry events, reviewed examination security measures, simulator fidelity and existing logs of simulator deficiencies, and observed job performance measures and scenarios that were administered during the week of July 7, 2014. These observations allowed the inspectors to assess the licensee's effectiveness in conducting the operating test to ensure operator mastery of the training program content.

Inspectors reviewed the operating test results of both units and the results of the Unit 2 comprehensive written examinations. On September 16, 2014, the licensee informed the lead inspectors of the following results:

Unit 1:

• 54 total licensed operators

• 49 of 51 licensed operators passed all portions of their requalification examination (written, JPMs, or scenarios)

• 10 of 11 crews passed the simulator scenario portion of the operating test Three licensed operators were not given a requalification examination since they are participating in the facility's senior reactor operator upgrade training program and, therefore, are not required to be tested. All three individuals are restricted from any watchstanding duties. The two individuals and one crew that failed their simulator scenarios were remediated, retested, and passed retake tests prior to returning to shift.

Unit 2:

• 58 total licensed operators

• 57 of 58 licensed operators passed all portions of their requalification examination (written, JPMs, or scenarios)

• 11 of 11 crews passed the simulator scenario portion of the operating test The individual that failed the comprehensive written examination was remediated, retested, and passed a retake examination prior to returning to shift.

Examination results for each unit were evaluated using the guidance contained in NRC Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix I, "Licensed Operator Requalification Significance Determination Process."

The inspectors completed one inspection sample of the biennial licensed operator requalification program for Unit 1 and one inspection sample of the biennial licensed operator requalification program for Unit 2.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed three instances of degraded performance or condition of safety-related structures, systems, and components (SSCs):

• August 1, 2014, Unit 1, emergency diesel generator and turbine driven emergency feedwater pump exhaust stacks

• August 28, 2104, Unit 2, turbine driven emergency feedwater pump

• September 19, 2014, Unit 1, decay heat pump breaker, train B The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition of possible common cause SSC failures and evaluated the adequacy of the licensee's corrective actions. The inspectors reviewed the licensee's work practices to evaluate whether these may have played a role in the degradation of the SSCs. The inspectors assessed the licensee's characterization of the degradation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65 (the Maintenance Rule), and verified that the licensee was appropriately tracking degraded performance and conditions in accordance with the Maintenance Rule.

These activities constituted completion of three maintenance effectiveness samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.12.

b. Findings

Introduction.

Inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," for the licensee's failure to follow work instructions for replacement of a prop spring in circuit breaker MA137. As a result, the wrong prop spring was replaced, reducing the reliability of the Unit 1 train B decay heat removal pump P-34B and ultimately causing a failure of the pump to start while the Unit 1 reactor coolant system was in a reduced inventory condition.

Description.

On March 28, 2013, Unit 1 was in a reduced inventory condition. The licensee realigned decay heat removal pump P-34B to recirculate the borated water storage tank in preparation for refilling the reactor coolant system cold legs following steam generator nozzle dam installation. The pump failed to start after realignment.

The licensee determined that circuit breaker MA137 failed to close and latch. Once the circuit breaker was replaced, the pump was restarted satisfactorily.

The licensee performed a high tiered apparent cause evaluation and determined that the failure to start was caused by improper replacement of the upper prop spring in circuit breaker MA137. In 1998, Job Order JO-00968863 was implemented to replace the upper and lower prop springs in accordance with General Electric Service Advisory Letter, GE SAL51.1A. The letter stated that the prop action could be altered to improve reliability of the breaker and eliminate random failures to latch. The upper prop spring was to be replaced with a heavier short spring that was designed to increase force. The licensee did not follow the instructions provided in Job Order JO 00968863, and installed the new increased force spring in place of the lower prop spring. The improper installation caused the circuit breaker to experience a failure to close and latch on March 28, 2013. Train A was in service removing decay heat when the failure occurred.

The licensee performed an extent of condition evaluation and determined that there were three other susceptible circuit breakers. One breaker was offsite, one was installed on nonsafety-related equipment, and the third breaker, MA138, was installed on the reactor building spray pump P-35B. The licensee replaced the affected reactor building spray pump breaker.

Analysis.

The inspectors determined that the failure to follow Job Order JO-00968863 for replacement of a prop spring in circuit breaker MA137 was a performance deficiency.

The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and was therefore a finding. Specifically, the failure to replace the appropriate prop spring adversely affected the availability and reliability of Unit 1 decay heat removal pump P-34B and caused a failure to start. In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix G, 1, "Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings," Exhibit 3, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent a loss of system safety function and did not represent an actual loss of safety function of at least one train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time.

The inspectors determined that there was no cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the cause of the performance deficiency occurred more than three years ago, and was not representative of present licensee performance.

Enforcement.

Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," required, in part, that activities affecting quality be prescribed by documented instructions and be accomplished in accordance with these instructions. Job Order JO-00968863 prescribed replacement of the prop spring in circuit breaker MA137, an activity affecting quality. Contrary to the above, on April 13, 1998, the licensee failed to ensure activities affecting quality were prescribed by documented instructions and accomplished in accordance with these instructions. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow Job Order JO-00968863 for replacement of the prop spring in circuit breaker MA137. As a result, the wrong prop spring was replaced and the decay heat removal pump P-34B failed to start. The licensee corrected the condition by replacing the breaker and returning the pump to service. Additionally, another train of decay heat removal supplied sufficient cooling for decay heat removal. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2013-00701, this violation is being treated as a

non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy:

NCV 05000313/2014004-01, "Improper Maintenance on Circuit Breaker Caused Loss of Unit 1 Decay Heat Removal Pump."

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control

a. Inspection Scope

On August 11, 2014, the inspectors reviewed a risk assessment performed by the licensee prior to changes in plant configuration and the risk management actions taken by the licensee in response to elevated risk for the Unit 2 auxiliary feedwater pump out of service.

The inspectors verified that this risk assessment was performed timely and in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.65 (the Maintenance Rule) and plant procedures. The inspectors reviewed the accuracy and completeness of the licensee's risk assessment and verified that the licensee implemented appropriate risk management actions based on the result of the assessment.

Additionally, on September 14, 2014, the inspectors observed portions of one emergent work activity that had the potential to affect the functional capability of mitigating systems. Specifically, the alternate ac diesel generator programmable logic control failed to provide output to breaker trip logic.

The inspectors verified that the licensee appropriately developed and followed a work plan for these activities. The inspectors verified that the licensee took precautions to minimize the impact of the work activities on SSCs.

These activities constitute completion of two maintenance risk assessments and emergent work control inspection samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.13.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R15 Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed five operability determinations and functionality assessments that the licensee performed for degraded or nonconforming SSCs:

• August 4, 2014, Unit 2, operability determination for 120 VAC vital power panel breaker 2R-S201 current rating

• August 7, 2014, Unit 2, operability determination for untested condensate storage and transfer system valves

• August 8, 2014, Unit 2, functionality assessment for super particulate iodine and noble gas monitors 5, 6, and 11

• August 22, 2014, Unit 1, operability determination for high pressure injection potential unanalyzed condition

• August 28, 2014, Unit 2, operability determination for emergency feedwater pump turbine condensation in steam line The inspectors reviewed the timeliness and technical adequacy of the licensee's evaluations. Where the licensee determined the degraded SSC to be operable or functional, the inspectors verified that the licensee's compensatory measures were appropriate to provide reasonable assurance of operability or functionality. The inspectors verified that the licensee had considered the effect of other degraded conditions on the operability or functionality of the degraded SSC.

These activities constitute completion of five operability and functionality review samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R17 Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments and Permanent Plant

Modifications (71111.17)

.1 Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed fourteen evaluations to determine whether the changes to the facility or procedures, as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, had been reviewed and documented in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. The inspectors verified that, when changes, tests, or experiments were made, evaluations were performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 and licensee personnel had appropriately concluded that the change, test, or experiment could be accomplished without obtaining a license amendment. The inspectors also verified that safety issues related to the changes, tests, or experiments were resolved. The team compared the safety evaluations and supporting documents to the guidance and methods provided in

Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 96-07, "Gui delines for 10 CFR 50.59 Implementation," as endorsed by NRC Regulatory Guide 1.187, "Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments," to determine the adequacy of the safety evaluations.

The inspectors reviewed twenty samples of changes, tests, and experiments that licensee personnel determined did not require evaluations and verified that the licensee personnel's conclusions were correct and consistent with 10 CFR 50.59.

The inspectors also verified that calculations, analyses, design change documentation, procedures, the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, the Technical Specifications, and plant drawings used to support the changes were accurate after the changes had been made. Documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

These activities constitute completion of fourteen samples of evaluations and twenty samples of changes, tests, and experiments that were screened out by licensee personnel as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

.2 Permanent Plant Modifications

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors verified that calculations, analyses, design change documentation, procedures, the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, the Technical Specifications, and plant drawings used to support the modifications were accurate after the modifications had been made. The inspectors verified that modifications were consistent with the plant's licensing and design bases. The inspectors confirmed that revised calculations and analyses demonstrated that the modifications did not adversely impact plant safety.

Additionally, inspectors interviewed design and system engineers to assess the adequacy of the modifications.

These activities constitute completion of thirteen samples of permanent plant modifications as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04, and specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed below.

.2.1 Unit 2 Weld Overlay Repair Of the Service Water Supply Piping to the #2 Emergency Diesel Generator Train B

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000030777, implemented to eliminate the leak, and provide a repair of the service water supply piping to the Unit 2, #2 Emergency Diesel Generator. This equivalent change evaluation evaluates the use of ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Case N-661-1, "Alternative Requirements for Wall Thickness Restoration of Classes 2 and 3 Carbon Steel Piping for Raw Water Service,Section XI, Division 1". This code case has been conditionally approved by the NRC per Regulatory Guide 1.147, "Inservice Inspection Code Case Acceptability ASME Section XI, Division 1, Revision 13," dated June 16, 2003, to perform a weld repair to eliminate the leakage and restore the piping to an acceptable condition. As identified in Condition Report CR-ANO-2-2011-2493, it was noted that there was a small amount of water leaking from the service water supply piping to the #2 Emergency Diesel Generator. The rate had been determined to be approximately 8 drops per minute. The actual leak was located in the vacuum degas effluent pump room across from the volume control tank room on the 354 elevation of Unit 2, in the auxiliary building. The flaw size had been documented by non-destructive examination UT Thickness Report 2-BOPUT-11-031, dated June 23, 2011. This section of piping was isolable. It was desirable to repair the leak to prevent any further degradation of the piping and to reduce any potential impacts to the service water system. The repair was a weld overlay in accordance with Code Case N-661-1. The inspectors confirmed the appropriate use of Code Case N-661-1 for the weld repair and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.2 Unit 1 Motor Driven Feedwater Pump Servo Enclosure Vortex Cooler Tubing

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000031283, implemented to provide backup cooling to the EXLAR servo drive electronics enclosure. The vortex coolers use only compressed air and vortex tube technology to cool the cabinets. These coolers will back up the electric air conditioners mounted on the cabinets. This provides redundancy and diversity to maintain the operability of the main feedwater pump controls in conditions of high ambient temperature. The coolers require 35 Standard Cubic Feet per Minute (SCFM) of instrument air for single stage operation (2500 Btu/Hr) and 70 SCFM for dual stage operation (5000 Btu/Hr). The inspectors reviewed the evaluation of the engineering change package and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.3 Unit 2 Engineering Evaluation To Document Acceptability Of Air Entering The Operating

Charging Pump, Either 2P-36A/B/C The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000033517, implemented to evaluate the acceptability of the Unit 2 charging pump flow transients similar to those that have occurred following charging pump maintenance. Due to the piping configuration on the suction side of the charging pumps, there was a potential for air to be trapped below the charging pump suction valve if the system was breached during pump maintenance.

Operating procedures are used to fill and vent the system following maintenance, but these procedures were not completely effective in removing air trapped directly below the charging pump suction valves. The design objective to resolve the problem was to evaluate the acceptability of a limited amount of air passing through an operating charging pump following maintenance on an adjacent charging pump. The evaluation was based on the previous operating history of the charging pumps over the last 30 plus

years of commercial operation, applicable industry experience, available vendor and industry recommendation associated with the susceptibility of positive displacement pumps to damage due to air ingestion, and existing operating procedure controls associated with system filling and venting. The inspectors reviewed the evaluation of the engineering change package and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.4 Effects Of Site Maximum Ambient Of 113 Degrees Fahrenheit On Unit 1 Emergency Diesel Generator Combustion Air And Possible Derating

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000039238, implemented to evaluate elevated outside temperature conditions, which may require de-rating of the published emergency diesel generator service capacity ratings. During the 2012 Component Design Basis Inspection (CDBI) the NRC expressed a concern that the ANO-2 EDG combustion air system was not evaluated for the effects of the site extreme maximum outside air temperature of 113° Fahrenheit. Although this condition has been resolved for ANO-2, the effects of this maximum site temperature on the combustion air system for ANO-1 need to be documented. The change package was developed to determine the effects of the elevated ANO-1 EDG combustion air temperatures at the maximum site temperature of 113° Fahrenheit and make required document changes. The inspectors reviewed the evaluation of the engineering change package and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.5 Alternate Forced Ventilation System For Unit 1 Battery, Direct Current and Switchgear

Areas The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000041466, implemented to investigate a design solution to resolve emergency electrical area cooling issues. The first phase of the program was to install a subset of the required design modifications such that room temperatures would be within their design values with outside air temperature at the summer design condition of 100° Fahrenheit, but with the current compensatory measures (i.e. load shedding and door opening) still in place. The second phase implemented all remaining design modifications such that the room temperatures would be within their design values with outside air temperature at the summer design condition of 100° Fahrenheit with compensatory measures required. The inspectors reviewed the evaluation of the engineering change package and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.6 Unit 1 Incorrect Body-Bonnet Stud Size On Decay Heat/Low Pressure Injection Block

Valve CR-ANO-1-2013-01217 CA-03 Resolution The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000045122, implemented to provide a markup to the referenced calculations which document the qualification of the valves using the smaller 1.375 inches stud size. Calculation CALC-V-CV-1400-05, "Seismic Qualification of Valve Assembly CV-1400," dated February 13, 1995, and CALC-V-CV-1401-05, "Seismic Qualification of Valve Assembly 1401," dated April 4, 1994, incorrectly assumed a body-bonnet stud size of 1.875 inches in diameter for decay heat/low pressure injection containment isolation block valves CV-1400 and CV-1401 respectively. Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2013-01217 was written to document this concern. Drawing FSK-M-1048 Sh.2, "Tubing Installation Details Decay Heat Removal Modification Valve CV-1401 Bonnet Leakoff", dated July 30, 2013, was also impacted by this change, and was marked up to reflect the correct stud size via this engineering change notice. The valves remain seismically qualified with the 1.375 inches body-bonnet stud size. The inspectors reviewed the calculations condition reports and the drawing, and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.7 Unit 1 Refuel 24 Evaluate Leak On Decay Heat Removal Check Valve DH-17 For Boric Acid Per Procedure EN-DC-319, "Boric Acid Corrosion Control Program"

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000046026, implemented to allow the current body-to-bonnet leakage associated with DH-17 to be in place for the duration of Fuel Cycle 25. During heat-up of the reactor coolant system, following Refueling Outage 1R24, check valve DH-17 was found to have a leak from the body-to-bonnet joint. The current leakage has been measured to be approximately two-five drops per minute. The leakage could not be repaired during 1R24 without a complete defuel of reactor vessel. Procedure EN-DC-319, "Boric Acid Corrosion Control Program,"

Revision 10, Step 5.4.3.1

(4) states "If a component cannot be monitored and cannot be repaired prior to outage completion, then an engineering change evaluation (EVAL), sub-type (BOR) per EN-DC-115, is required to evaluate acceptability of the leak until the next outage (18 or 24 month cycle, as applicable)". This engineering change justified why it was acceptable to leave a small leak in containment during operating cycle 25. The inspectors reviewed the procedure, and the data collected pertaining to the leak and did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.8 Replace Unit 1 Battery Room Exhaus

t Fans Installed by Engineering Change EC-17162 The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000033422, implemented to replace the Unit 1 battery room exhaust fans and air flow switches in the administration building and maintenance facility uninterruptable power supply (UPS) rooms to prevent accumulation of explosive levels of hydrogen buildup from the batteries. Engineering Change EC-17162 installed security electrical power source features associated with the licensee's site security requirements. A part of the equipment change involved installation of new uninterruptable power supply systems for the administration building and maintenance facility. The new uninterruptable power supply system's ventilation was required to be upgraded to prevent hydrogen buildup from the uninterruptable power supply batteries. Exhaust fan VEF-68 was installed in the administration building uninterruptable power supply room and exhaust fan VEF-69 was installed in the maintenance facility UPS room to provide the required airflow and paddle type flow switches FS-68 and FS-69 were installed to provide an alarm if their respective fans failed to provide the required exhaust flow. The original installed exhaust fans did not move sufficient air flow through the installed ductwork to actuate the paddle type flow switches associated with each fan. This modification replaces the fans with higher capacity fans and replaces the existing paddle type flow switches with differential pressure switches to detect duct static pressure when the fans are operating properly.

The flow switches are connected to monitored computer points to alarm when inadequate airflow exists. The inspectors verified the electrical power requirements for the larger fans would not exceed the existing breaker and conductor ampacities and verified that the new fans and flow switches were installed and tested correctly and that all equipment tags were properly changed. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.9 Unit 2 Unit Auxiliary (UAT) 2X-02 Breaker Replacement

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-00000042277, implemented to replace 52-1 General Electric (GE) model number THED136020 thermo-magnetic breaker with a magnetic only type molded case circuit breaker GE model number TEC36030 breaker to negate the de-rating caused by the local high ambient temperature. Breaker 52-1 is a 600 Vac, three-pole, 30 Amp, molded case circuit breaker and is used to supply power to the 12 cooling fans associated with the oil/air heat exchangers on Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02 and is installed within the control cabinet located on Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02. This control cabinet was installed adjacent to the fire wall near Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02. The cooling fans blow air across the oil/air heat exchanger and the heated air is entrapped by the close proximity of the nearby fire wall and the exterior of the control cabinet and thus raises the ambient temperature of the equipment within the enclosure. The elevated temperature caused the thermal feature of the thermo-magnetic breaker to trip under normal operating currents which causes nuisance tripping of the cooling fans which led to higher operating temperatures for Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02 and frequent resetting of the breaker. By replacing the thermo-magnetic breaker with a magnetic only breaker the effect of the elevated ambient temperature within the enclosure was eliminated and nuisance tripping of the cooling fans was eliminated. Prior to executing this modification the Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02 experienced an unrelated catastrophic failure and was completely replaced. The new transformer, which had been previously purchased, was equipped with control equipment that monitors for elevated ambient temperatures in the area around the Unit Auxiliary Transformer 2X-02 and the associated fire wall. The inspectors walked down the installation of the new transformer to verify the installation met the requirements of the modification and was in accordance with the design. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.10 Installation Of Unit 1 Service Water System Return Isolation Valve SW-23 for Service Water System Boundary Check Valve SW-9

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000032588, implemented to install a Unit 1, manually operated, 14 inch, carbon steel, butterfly Service Water Return Isolation Valve SW-23, with associated slip on flanges in the service water return line from the intermediate cooling water coolers downstream of Service Water System Boundary Check Valve SW-9. This valve is safety-related and it functions as a normally open passive pressure boundary during normal operations, and as a maintenance boundary to isolate the intermediate cooling water service water return line and check valve SW-9 from the common service water return header during unit outages. The inspectors verified the design and performance requirements were appropriately reflected in the procurement and installation documentation and that post-installation testing was adequately performed. The inspector also confirmed that the licensee had revised their ASME Section XI program to include butterfly valve SW-23 as a pressure boundary component. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.11 Unit 2 Safety Injection Tank High Point Vent Piping Material Reconciliation

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000038258, implemented to provide drawing revisions that establish piping class line breaks and to reconcile material substitution associated with SI tank high point vent. Specifically, the modification included examination of the suitability of application for an alternate bar stock material with equivalent tensile and yield strengths. The inspectors examined the results of the engineering change notice and determined that bar stock material was an acceptable alternative to the piping fitting for this application. The inspectors also confirmed that the associated drawings had been appropriately revised and that design inputs were correctly selected and incorporated into the SI tank high point vent design. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.12 Replacement of the Unit 2 High Pressurization System Check Valves 2HPS-36/38 with

Velan Valve The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000048670, implemented to replace check valves 2HPS-36 and 2HPS-38, which were check valves used in the High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) pressurization system on the high pressure system supply line to the HPSI discharge header and provide system boundary isolation of the HPSI system. The function of these check valves was to serve as a system flow path, maintain the system pressure boundary for both the high pressurization system and the HPSI system, and provide system back flow isolation for the HPSI system. The modification was precipitated by excessive seat leakage of the existing Kerotest check valves, identified during the performance of routine surveillance testing. The inspectors reviewed the component critical characteristics and the equipment change documentation associated with this modification and confirmed the equivalence of the replacement check valves. The inspectors also reviewed special processes controls and post-modification testing requirements. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

.2.13 Add Detail For Installation Of Unit 2 Flood Barrier In Conduits

The inspectors reviewed Change Package EC-0000050342, implemented to install compensatory flood barriers in Unit 2 Turbine Building junction box 2JB300 and conduits H3005 and H3006. Specifically, the flood barriers were required to mitigate potential flooding in the Unit 2 Auxiliary Building due to both external and internal design basis floods. As documented in Condition Report CR-ANO-2-2014-00773, two six inch embedded conduits (H3005, H3006) located in junction box 2JB413 (elev. 329) in the Unit 2 Auxiliary Building were found with no seals (fire or flood). Subsequently, the other ends of these conduits which end in junction box 2JB300 (elev. 335), located in the Unit 2 Turbine Building, also did not have seals. The elevation of these conduits is below the maximum probable external flood elevation of 361 feet and also below the circulating water system component failure flood elevation of 358 feet 3 inches.

Therefore, flood water could enter the auxiliary building through these conduits from the turbine building. Conduit H3005 contains three cables that feed the Unit 2 Circulating Water Pump Motor 2PM-3A. Conduit H3006 contains three cables that also feed the Unit 2 Circulating Water Pump Motor 2PM-3A. The inspectors reviewed the documentation associated with this modification including design basis considerations, critical characteristics, and operating exper ience. The inspectors did not identify any concerns with the change package.

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R19 Post-Maintenance Testing

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed four post-maintenance testing activities that affected risk-significant SSCs:

• July 16, 2014, Unit 1, high pressure injection pump P-36B after outboard seal replacement

• July 24, 2014, Unit 2, motor operated disconnect for service water pump 2P-4B after dc ground repair

• August 11, 2014, Unit 2, auxiliary feedwater pump following maintenance

• September 22, 2014, Unit 1, service water pump P-4B motor refurbishment The inspectors reviewed licensing- and design-basis documents for the SSCs and the maintenance and post-maintenance test procedures. The inspectors observed the performance of the post-maintenance tests to verify that the licensee performed the tests in accordance with approved procedures, satisfied the established acceptance criteria, and restored the operability of the affected SSCs.

These activities constitute completion of four post-maintenance testing inspection samples, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.19.

b. Findings

Introduction.

Inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.4.1.a for the licensee's failure to establish procedures recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 9, February 1978. Specifically, the licensee failed to establish preventative maintenance procedures for valve internal inspection and testing of the Unit 2 main steam isolation valves.

Description.

After a shutdown on December 23, 2013, to repair a steam leak, the train A main steam isolation valve 2CV-1010-1 was stroked in Mode 4 prior to entering Mode 3, and the valve stuck at fifteen percent open and continued to stick on four successive attempts. The valve was declared inoperable, and the plant went to Mode 5 for troubleshooting and repairs. The licensee replaced the piston guide rings and hand buffed the internal valve body to remove gouges. After repairs to the 2CV-1010-1 valve, the valve was declared operable based on diagnostic testing data and three successful stroke times in Mode 5.

The licensee identified through their root cause that the lack of preventative maintenance on the valve internals resulted in mechanical binding and corrosion of the internals. There were indications of scoring and gouging on both the valve internal body and the piston assembly. Also, the piston guide rings were seized in place due to debris and swelling. The Unit 2 MSIV internals have been installed since initial plant operation.

In 2011, Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2011-01549 was written to document that 2CV-1010-1 experienced a sluggish or jerky motion and took longer than normal to open during a plant heat up stroke test after the 2R21 outage. The valve's closing time was within the requirements, and several other strokes afterwards did not show sluggish opening. Therefore, the licensee issued a corrective action to replace the actuator, which was already scheduled for 2R22, and diagnostically test the valve after replacement. The replacement was deferred and the condition report was closed to

work order WO 272324.

In January 2013, Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2013-00225 was written to document that the MSIVs are susceptible to mechanical binding based on a review of operating experience. In June 2013, the licensee issued a corrective action to perform diagnostic testing to determine the overall condition of the valves.

A historical review of valve stroke times did not provide indication of degradation and the valve was successfully stroked prior to downpowering. Therefore, the inspectors confirmed the licensee's conclusion that the main steam isolation valve 2CV-1010-1 did not exceed technical specifications allowed outage time.

An extent of condition review was performed for the train B main steam isolation valve 2CV-1060-2, and it underwent diagnostic testing prior to disassembling the valve, which proved past operability. Subsequently, the licensee replaced the piston guide rings and hand buffed the internal valve body. After repairs to the 2CV-1060-2 valve, the valve was declared operable based on diagnostic testing data and three successful stroke times in Mode 5. The licensee confirmed that Unit 1 does not have the same MSIVs and had replaced the valve internals in 1999.

Analysis.

Inspectors concluded that the failure to establish preventative maintenance procedures for valve internal inspection and testing of the Unit 2 main steam isolation valves was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor because it was associated with the procedure quality attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and is therefore a finding. Specifically, the lack of preventative maintenance adversely affected the reliability of the main steam isolation valve 2CV-1010-1 to close within the time assumed in the accident analysis. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power," Exhibit 2, the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent the loss of a system safety function and did not represent an actual loss of safety function of at least one train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time.

The finding was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, in that the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes commensurate with their safety significance.

Specifically, during the 2CV-1010-1 stroke test in 2011, the valve experienced a sluggish or jerky motion and took longer than normal to open. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-2-2011-1549 but did not

fully evaluate and troubleshoot the condition adverse to quality to ensure resolution of the cause [P.2].

Enforcement.

Technical Specification 6.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures be established covering the activities in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, dated February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, Section 9, specifies that procedures for performing maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly pre-planned and completed in accordance with written procedures and documented instructions appropria te to the circumstances. Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to establish procedures covering maintenance activities that could affect the performance of safety-related equipment. Specifically, the licensee failed to establish preventative maintenance procedures for the Unit 2 main steam isolation valves to ensure the valves remain operable. After repairs to the 2CV-1010-1 valve, diagnostic testing and stroke tests were performed to show operability of the valve prior to entering Mode 3. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-2-2013-02502, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000368/2014004-02, "Failure to Establish Preventative Maintenance on Unit 2 Main Steam Isolation Valves."

1R22 Surveillance Testing

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors observed six risk-significant surveillance tests and reviewed test results to verify that these tests adequately demonstrated that the SSCs were capable of performing their safety functions:

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

(Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000368/2014-003-00, Axial Shape Index Trip at the End-of-Life During Rapid Plant Shutdown

a. Inspection Scope

On April 27, 2014, Arkansas Nuclear One, Unit 2 was at the end of the core life and was operating at approximately 95 percent power when the System Operations Center Dispatcher informed the licensee of a system wide grid emergency due to severe weather and ordered both Units 1 and 2 to come off-line as soon as possible. During the downpower, Unit 2 experienced an automatic reactor trip from 46 percent power due to exceeding the core protection calculator axial shape index (ASI).

The licensee concluded that the ASI trip was due to not effectively executing their reactivity management plan. This was caused by the lack of specific training and understanding the magnitude and rate of ASI shift that occurs at the end of a fuel cycle.

The approved reactivity plan noted control element assembly (CEA) positions that were necessary to maintain ASI on target through the downpower. The operator delayed CEA insertion over the initial interval because it was noted that ASI was tracking closely with the target equilibrium shape index early into the maneuver. This delay in CEA insertions directly contributed to the challenges associated with maintaining ASI in the desired control band which ultimately led to the automatic reactor trip. The licensee has initiated a corrective action to improve its' reactivity plan and provide operator training on end of core life rapid reactor shutdowns. This licensee event report is closed.

These activities constitute completion of one event follow-up sample, as defined in Inspection Procedure 71153.

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspectors documented a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.4.1.a for the failure to implement procedures for changing load recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Section 2.f, dated February 1978. Specifically, the licensee did not maintain ASI within the limits of the core operating limits report limits (COLR) during a rapid power reduction at the end of core life, resulting in an automatic reactor trip.

Description.

On April 27, 2014, the System Operations Center informed the licensee of a system wide grid emergency and ordered both Units 1 and 2 to come off line as soon as possible. Both units commenced a rapid plant shutdown. Unit 2 was at 95 percent power at the end of core life (EOL) at the time of this notification. At EOL, the effect of a decrease in plant power on ASI is greater than at any other time in the cycle. Therefore, controls must be employed to maintain ASI within the core operating limits and prevent a

trip.

Unit 2 commenced the rapid power reduction in accordance with OP-2102.004, "Power Operations," Revision 56, Section 12, "Emergent Power Reductions," and the guidance from an approved 1-hour shutdown contingency reactivity plan.

ASI describes the axial power distribution of the reactor core and is defined as the power generated in the lower half of the core minus the power generated in the upper half of the core divided by the sum of these powers. Four CPC channels receive an input from their respective excore nuclear instruments and perform an ASI calculation. Two CPC channels exceeding the ASI setpoint will result in a reactor trip.

The reactivity plan stated that operators begin with an emergency boration and insert the CEAs 17 to 19 inches for each insertion to obtain targeted positions at fifteen minute intervals. This reactivity plan was expected to keep ASI from being exceeded. The reactor operator delayed CEA insertion over the initial interval because ASI was tracking closely with the target equilibrium shape index as described in the COLR. This delay in CEA insertions was determined to be a direct contributor to the failure to maintain ASI in the desired control band. Approximately thirty minutes into the power reduction, at approximately 46 percent power, CPC channel 'C' tripped due to ASI. The shift manager evaluated the situation and directed a manual reactor trip, but prior to the manual trip an automatic reactor trip occurred when CPC channel 'D' tripped from ASI.

In discussions with the licensee, the inspectors concluded that not inserting CEAs as directed by the reactivity plan, and lack of operator knowledge of the magnitude of the temperature-driven ASI during EOL conditions, resulted in the ASI limit being exceeded. The licensee also determined that the licensee's training program did not train operators for rapid shutdowns at EOL conditions. The licensee had practiced middle of core life rapid shutdowns on the simulator, which would not be as demanding as EOL conditions.

Analysis.

The inspectors determined that the failure to maintain axial shape index within the limits of the core operating limits report during a rapid power reduction was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the human performance attribute of the initiating events cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge the critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, the failure to maintain axial shape index caused an automatic reactor trip. Using Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and Appendix A, "The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power," Exhibit 1, "Initiating Events Screening Questions," the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance because the finding did cause a reactor trip but did not cause a loss of mitigation equipment relied upon to transition the plant from the onset of the trip to a stable shutdown condition.

The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with training because the organization did not provide training and ensure knowledge transfer to maintain a knowledgeable, technically competent workforce. Specifically, the operators were not trained to understand the effects of the axial shape index during rapid shutdowns with a core at an EOL condition [H.9].

Enforcement.

Technical Specification 6.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures be implemented covering the activities in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, dated February 1978, Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, Section 2.f, recommends general operating procedures be established and implemented for changing load and load follow (if applicable). Contrary to the above, on April 27, 2014, the licensee failed to implement general operating procedures for changing load and load follow. Procedure OP-2102.004, Power Operation," Revision 56, Section 12, "Emergent Power Reduction," Step 12.7 states, "Maintain ASI (PID 268) within Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) limits using CEA Group 6 or Group P." Specifically, the licensee did not maintain axial shape index in accordance with the limits of the core operating limits report during a rapid power reduction, which resulted in an automatic reactor trip. The licensee took immediate corrective actions to enhance the procedural guidance, brief operating crews on following reactivity plans, and the effects of end-of-life core conditions on axial shaping index. Because this violation is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2014-01142, this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000368/2014004-03, "Failure to Implement Procedural Requirements for Axial Shape Index during a Rapid Power Reduction."

On August 7, 2014, the inspectors presented the Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications preliminary inspection results to Mr. D. James, Director, Regulatory and Performance Improvement, and other members of the licensee's staff.

The licensee acknowledged the results as presented. While some proprietary information was reviewed during this inspection, no proprietary information was included in this report.

The inspectors debriefed Mr. D. James, Director, Regulatory and Performance Improvement, and other members of the licensee's staff of the results of the licensed operator requalification

program inspection on July 11, 2014, and telephonically exited with Mr. R. Martin, Operations Training Superintendent, on September 18, 2014. The licensee representative acknowledged the findings presented. The inspectors did not review any proprietary information during this inspection.

On September 25, 2014, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. J. Browning and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The licensee confirmed that any proprietary information reviewed by the inspectors had been returned or destroyed.

4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations

The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) and Severity Level IV was identified by the licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy, for being dispositioned as a Non-Cited Violation.

Title 10 CFR 55.49, "Integrity of Examinations," requires, in part, that facility licensees shall not engage in any activity that compromises the integrity of any application, test, or examination required by this part. Contrary to the above, on June 24, 2014, the licensee caused a compromise to examination integrity by violating an examination security agreement to not divulge information about examination content to unauthorized individuals. The failure to meet 10 CFR 55.49 was evaluated through the traditional enforcement process because it impacted the ability of the NRC to perform its regulatory oversight function. This resulted in assignment of a Severity Level IV violation because it involved a non-willful compromise of examination integrity and is consistent with Section 6.4.d of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

The associated performance deficiency was screened as Green because there was not an actual effect on the equitable and consistent administration of any examination required by 10 CFR 55.59, "Requalification." The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action

program as Condition Report CR-ANO-1-2014-01062.
