REPORT DETAILS

1.REACTOR SAFETYCornerstones: Mitigating Systems and Barrier Integrity1R21Component Design Bases Inspection (71111.21).1Inspection Sample Selection ProcessThe team selected risk significant components and operator actions for review usinginformation contained in the licensee's Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA). Ingeneral, this included components and operator actions that had a risk achievement worth factor greater than two or Birnbaum value greater than 1E-6. The components selected were located within the high and low pressure safety injection, component cooling water, service water, and electrical distribution systems. The sample selectionincluded twenty two components, five operator actions, and nine operating experience items. Additionally, the team reviewed five modifications by performing activities identified in IP 71111.17, Permanent Plant Modifications, Section 02.02.a. and IP71111.02, Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments. The team performed a margin assessment and detailed review of the selected risk-significant components to verify that the design bases have been correctly implemented and maintained. This design margin assessment considered original design issues, margin reductions due to modification, or margin reductions identified as a result of material condition issues. Equipment reliability issues were also considered in theselection of components for detailed review. These included items such as failed performance test results, significant corrective action, repeated maintenance, Maintenance Rule (a)1 status, degraded conditions, NRC resident inspector input ,system health reports, industry operating experience, and licensee problem equipmentlists. Consideration was also given to the uniqueness and complexity of the design, operating experience, and the available defense in depth margins. An overall summary of the reviews performed and the specific inspection findings identified are included in the following sections of the report. A specific list of documents reviewed is included in the attachment to this report..2 Results of Detailed Reviews.2.1 Detailed Component Reviews.2.1.1 Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Pumps

Operating experience (OE) history, reported in the 2Enclosurehealth report, was reviewed to determine if problems at other plants were beingreviewed and addressed. Surveillance and test results, and associated correctiveactions were reviewed to evaluate performance history. A walkdown was performed of the RHR pumps to determine material condition.Design information was reviewed including functional requirements identified in theFunctional System Description (FSD), the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), vendor manual and design drawings to identify the design bases. Pump flow calculations were reviewed for plant cool-down, mid-loop operation and accident conditions and compared to pump capabilities. The RHR pump calculations, procedures, and test data were reviewed to ensure thatappropriate minimum required water level would exist in the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) and containment sump under accident conditions to maintain pump net positive suction head (NPSH) requirements specified in vendor manual.
