SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting baseline inspections at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Units 1, 2, and 3 in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information.

NRC-identified and self-revealed findings, violations, and additional items are summarized in the table below. Licensee-identified non-cited violations are documented in the Inspection Results at the end of this report.

List of Findings and Violations No findings were identified.

Additional Tracking Items None.

PLANT STATUS

Units 1, 2, and 3 operated at or near full power for the duration of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515 Appendix D, Plant Status and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

- TEMPORARY INSTRUCTIONS, INFREQUENT AND ABNORMAL 60854 - Preoperational Testing of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Inspection (ISFSI)

An ISFSI inspection was conducted at PVNGS on March 19-21, 2019, by inspectors from Region I, Division of Nuclear Materials Safety. The PVNGS ISFSI was licensed as a general 10 CFR Part 72 licensee. The licensee had been utilizing the NAC, Universal Multi-Purpose Canister system (UMS), approved under Certificate of Compliance (CoC) 72-1015, Amendment 5, and NAC UMS Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Revision 11, to load and store spent fuel at their ISFSI. At the time of the on-site inspection, PVNGSs ISFSI pad contained 152 NAC ventilated concrete casks (VCCs), each containing the steel Transportable Storage Container (TSC) with a capacity for 24 pressurized water reactor (PWR) spent fuel assemblies. The last routine ISFSI inspection was performed in March 2017 (ADAMS Accession No. ML17130B002).

Under the provisions of 10 CFR 72.210 and 10 CFR 72.212, PVGNS has decided to adopt and utilize a different storage system to store spent fuel casks at their ISFSI. The licensee has elected to utilize the NAC, Magnastor System under CoC 72-1031, Amendment 7, and FSAR Revision 10. The Magnastor TSC has the capacity to store 37 PWR spent fuel assemblies in each VCC.

The purpose of the inspection was to observe and evaluate the licensees pre-operational testing and training exercises required to be performed by a general licensee prior to use of the system to load spent fuel assemblies. The NAC Magnastor CoC 72-1031, Appendix A, Technical Specification (TS) 5.8 contains a list of loading, closure, handling, unloading, and transfer operations that are required to be performed. During the inspection the NRC inspectors observed PVNGS perform the following demonstrations from TS 5.8 (c): closing and sealing of the TSC to demonstrate welding; weld inspection and documentation; and leak testing. PVNGS still has a number of demonstrations that are required to be completed before the licensee can utilize the Magnastor system. Those demonstrations are projected to be performed in the summer of 2019.

The ISFSI activities specifically reviewed during the on-site inspection:

(1) Evaluated and observed dry run operations which included welding, weld inspection and documentation, and leak testing in accordance with TS 5.8 (c).

(2) Reviewed welder qualification program, welder performance qualifications, welding procedure specifications, and welding procedure qualification records.

(3) Reviewed NDE program procedure, NDE personnel certification records, the qualification program for visual test and liquid penetrant exams, liquid penetrant procedure, visual testing procedure, and helium leak testing procedure.

(4) Review Certified Material Test reports for liquid penetrant chemicals and welder filler metals.

(5) Evaluated and observed licensees radiation protection implementation during the dry run observations.

(6) Evaluated and observed licensees implementation of foreign material exclusion program during welding demonstrations.

The inspectors did not identify any issues of concern requiring documentation.

INSPECTION RESULTS

No findings were identified.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS

On February 8, 2019, the inspector presented the baseline radiation safety inspection results to Mr. J. Cadogan, Senior Vice President of Site Operations, and other members of the licensee staff. The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.

On March 21, 2019, the inspectors presented the results from the ISFSI pre-operational welding demonstration inspection to Ms. Maria Lacal, Senior Vice President of Regulatory Oversight, and other members of the licensee staff. Licensee personnel acknowledged the information presented. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was controlled to protect from public disclosure.

On April 12, 2019, the inspector presented the quarterly resident inspector inspection results to Mr. Jack Cadogan, Senior Vice President, Site Operations, and other members of the licensee staff. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was controlled to protect from public disclosure.

The following items are requested for the

Public Radiation Safety Inspection

at Palo Verde

Dates of Inspection: 02/04/2019 to 02/08/2019

Integrated Report 2019001

Inspection areas are listed in the attachments below.

Please provide the requested information on or before Monday, January 21, 2019.

Please submit this information using the same lettering system as below. For example, all

contacts and phone numbers for Inspection Procedure 71124.05 should be in a file/folder titled

5-A, applicable organization charts in file/folder 5-B, etc.

The information should be provided in electronic format or a secure document management

service. If information is placed on a secured document management system, please ensure

the inspection exit date entered is at least 30 days later than the onsite inspection dates, so the

inspectors will have access to the information while writing the report.

In addition to the corrective action document lists provided for each inspection procedure listed

below, please provide updated lists of corrective action documents at the entrance meeting.

The dates for these lists should range from the end dates of the original lists to the day of the

entrance meeting.

If more than one inspection procedure is to be conducted and the information requests appear

to be redundant, there is no need to provide duplicate copies. Enter a note explaining in which

file the information can be found.

If you have any questions or comments, please contact Natasha Greene at 817-200-1154 or via

e-mail at Natasha.Greene@nrc.gov.
