EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 and 2
NRC Inspection Report 50-313/98-07; 50-368/98-07
This routine announced inspection included aspects of licensee operations, engineering,
maintenance, and plant support. The report covers a 6-week period of resident inspection. l
! Operations
a
Good housekeeping practices and component material condition was noted in the Unit 1
Train A reactor building spray pump room. The system valve lineup was in accordance l
with the procedure. Components in the field were properly identified and labeled as
denoted on Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&lD) M-236 and in !
Procedure 1104.005 (Section O2.1). l
=
Unit 2 Train A emergency diesel generator (EDG) was aligned and maintained in
accordance with station procedures. No material deficiencies were noted that had the
potential to impact system operation (Section O2.2).
Maintenance
Units 1 and 2 maintenance activities were performed professionally by qualified workers
knowledgeable of their assigned tasks and diagnostic equipment. Technicians
demonstrated good as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) practices during the
activities observed (Section M1.1).
=
Units 1 and 2 surveillance activities were performed in accordance with approved j
procedures by knowledgeable personnel who demonstrated good communication, !
self-checking, and peer-checking skills. Good system engineering involvement was
observed during surveillance activities (Section M1.2).
Knowledgeable, qualified technicians performed 4160 volt circuit breaker maintenance
on Unit 2 using approved procedures (Section M1.3).
Unit 2 Technical Specifications were entered when a technician interrupted power to
reactor vessel level monitoring system (RVLMS) Channel 1 by utilizing an uncontrolled
power strip located inside the system cabinet which also powered system comoonents.
The licensee missed an opportunity to prevent the loss of RVLMS Channel 1 power
when they initiated system specific corrective actions for a similar event that occurred in
1996 (Section M1.4).

-
Chemistry technicians demonstrated a good questioning attitude when they identified
water discharging from the shared Units 1 and 2 emergency cooling pond spillway when
the water level was below the top of the dam. The licensee promptly investigated the
condition and found it to be normal for the water level (Section E1.1).

- - Two deficient air sampling charcoal cartridge holders were left in service when Units 1
and 2 radiation protection technicians failed to review radiation work permits to identify

b. Observations and Findinas
The inspectors reviewed the applicable procedure, interviewed technicians, and
monitored the maintenance activity. Technicians were knowledgeable of the design and
operation of the breaker. When the work area was left unattended, technicians secured
the breaker and equipment carts to ensure immobility during a seismic event. Proper
controls of cleaning fluids and combustibles were otaserved. Procedural compliance,
place keeping, and required signatures on the data sheet were accomplished as the
tasks and steps were performed,
c. Conclusions

b. Observations and Findinas
On August 31, while performing routine cleaning and inspection of the RVLMS cabinet
performed under JO 00979045, " Vibration and Loose Parts Monitoring Panel,
Cabinets 2C19 and 2C3888-1/2 Clean and Inspect / a technician plugged a vacuum
cleaner into a power strip mounted in the cabinet. The power strip was designed to
provide electricity to the RVLMS control power supply modules and not intended to
supply externalloads. The load, resulting from the operation of the vacuum cleaner,
was sufficient to cause the power supply protective fuse to blow. This resulted in a loss
of control power to RVLMS Channel 1 and entry into Technical Specification 3.3.3.6.
There are two channels of RVLMS. Each channelis powered from separate
'
safety-related busses. The RVLMS system is utilized as an indication of reactor vessel
water level during postaccident conditions and provides no automatic functions. During
the loss of Channel 1 RVLMS, Channel 2 was available for indication in the unlikely
event of an accident. Additionally, the loss of one channel of RVLMS has no impact on
routine power operations.
The inspectors reviewed Condition Report 2-1998-0340 for this event, related Condition l
Reports 2-1997-0132 and C-1996-0227, interviewed the licensee, and observed the
configuration in the affected cabinet. The power strip located within the cabinet did not
have any protective covers or warning labels that would prevent a technician from
plugging a nonsafety-related component into the supply. The work instructions did not
contain cautions to preclude the event from occurring. The licensee indicated that the 1
technician was not aware that the strip was intended only for use as a system power
supply. The inspectors interviewed the maintenance supervisors who estimated that as
many as 30 cabinets contained various receptacles and that a similar configuration to I
the RVLMS power strip existed in a minimum of five locations.
The inspectors determined that Condition Reports 2-1997-0132 and C-1996-0227
identified similar occurrences. Specifically, C 1996-0227, dated September 11,1996,
identified a loss of the safety parameter display system power when a worker plugged a
heat gun into an electrical outlet supplied from the same source as the system. The
inspectors concluded that the licensee missed an opportunity to prevent the loss of
RVLMS when they did not recognize that the condition associated with Condition
Report C-1996-0227 was more extensive and potentially affected other systems.
Although these problems had no safety significance, they represent weak corrective
action. -
c. Conclusions
Unit 2 Technical Specifications were entered when a technician interrupted power to
RVLMS Channel 1 by using an uncontrolled power strip located inside the system
cabinet that also powered system components. The licensee missed an opportunity to
prevent the loss of RVLMS Channel 1 power when they initiated system specific
corrective actions for a similar event that occurred in 1996. The problems had no safety
significance, but they represent isolated examples of weak corrective action.

E1 Conduct of Engineering
E1.1 Units 1 and 2 - Ooerability of Emeraency ( '
-,aPond
a. Inspection Scone (37551)
The licensee identified a possible deficiency associated with the emergency cooling
pond which serves as the ultimate heat sink for Units 1 and 2. The inspectors observed
the condition and reviewed the operability and system design with engineering
personnel.
b. Observations and Findinas
On August 24,1998, while making preparations for chemical treatment of the
emergency cooling pond, the licensee lowered level to the top of the overflow spillway to
prevent chemicals from entering Lake Dardannell. Chemistry technicians noticed that a
small amount (less than 2 gpm) of water continued to seep from the seams in the
concrete erosion barriers that overlay the spillway. The technicians properly questioned
this and submitted Condition Report CR-C-98-0212 which documented their concern.
The inspectors observed the condition and reviewed the licensee's operability ,
assessment of the water seeping from the emergency cooling pond concrete erosion l
blocks. The construction of the spillway consists of clay underlayer, a permeable i
'
overlay that minimizes erosion of the clay and allows water to penetrate, solidifying the
clay layer, concrete erosion blocks on top of the overlayment, and finally a plastic j
tarpaulin type covering over the concrete that provides additional erosion protection

when water flows over the cor crete. The inspectors reviewed the configuration of the
spillway, the lake level, and the location and amount of water seepage and concluded
that the licensee's operability determination accurately reflected the condition. Although
the level of water in the pond was slightly below the top of the concrete, the licensee
concluded that, because the pond level was above the bottom of the concrete blocks, a
tortuous flow path between the blocks existed that allowed water to migrate through the
joints between the blocks and over the spillway.
c. Conclusions
Chemistry technicians demonstrated a good questioning attitude when they identified
water discharging from the shared Units 1 and 2 emergency cooling pond spillway when
the water level was below the top of the dam. The licensee promptly investigated the
condition and found it to be normal for the water level.
IV. Plant Support
R1 Radiological Protection and Chemistry Controls
R1.1. General Comments (71750)
During routine tours of the pi.snt and observations of plant activities, the inspectors
found that access doors to locked high radiation areas were properly locked, areas were
properly posted, and personnel demonstrated proper radiological work practices.
R1.2 Units 1 and 2 - Radiation Monitorina at Reactor Coolant Samole Sink
a. Insoection Scope (71707)
On August 26,1998, the inspectors observed chemistry technician radiological practices
while establishing valve lineup in preparation for performance of Procedure 1607,
Revision 13, " Reactor. Coolant Sampling System."
b. Observations and Findinas
The inspectors observed radiological practice conducted per Radiation Work
Permit 98-008 when technicians were aligning the reactor coolant sampling systern in
preparation for performing of Procedure 1607.001. Technicians demonstrated good
contamination control practices. The sample sink was configured with an exhaust hood
that is maintained under negative pressure to preclude radioactive gasses and particles
from entering the work space. Air samplers were prestaged at the sample sink in !
accordance with Radiation Work Permit 98-008 to provide monitoring for lodine and
particulate during sample activities.
The inspectors noted that air sampling charcoal cartridge holders were configured such
that air could bypass the charcoal cartridge due to a missing gasket in the sample head.
This condition would lessen the efficiency of the sample cartridge, possibly yielding

inaccurate samples. The licensee took actions at that time to remove deficient
cartridges from service. The inspectors questioned the chemistry technicians about the
deficiency identified during the week before. Technicians were aware of the problem
and indicated that they had been informed that health physics had removed all of the
deficient holders. The inspectors asked the technicians to check the holders located at
the Units 1 and 2 sample sinks and noted that both were missing gaskets and o-rings.
Upon noting the problem, plant staff promptly replaced the defective sample holders.
The inspectors discussed the condition with the health physics department. Health
physics indicated that they had failed to cross-reference radiological work permits to
prestaged sample holders and had only removed deficient sample holders located at the
controlled access and in spares. Subsequently, health physics reviewed radiation work
permits and other potential locations fcr sample holders and found that the two holders
in the chemistry lab were the only oversights.
The licensee determined that no negative fuel performance trends or positive iodine
samples had occurred subsequent to both units' refueling outage. They noted that the
installed ventilation maintained the sample sink at a negative pressure and that iodine
sample cartridge bypass flow was minimal. Based upon this information, the licensee
concluded that no unmonitored releases to the work space at the reactor coolant system
sample station had occurred. The failure to priorly identify these two sample holders as
defective did not result in an unmonitored release and did not constitute a safety issue.
c. Conclusions
Two deficient air sampling charcoal cartridge holders were left in service when Units 1
and 2 radiation protection technicians failed to review radiation work permits to identify
deficient inservice iodine sample holders. A review of the operating and radiological
conditions relevant to the inservice sample holder indicated that an unmonitored release
to the work space had not occurred.
S1 Conduct of Security and Safeguards Activities
S1.1 Conduct of Security (71750)
During this period, the inspectors observed personnel and package access, personnel
searches, and applications of temporary lighting in areas where >quipment,
components, and truck trailers were stored. The inspectors' review of security
measures and operations periodically throughout the inspection period indicated that
they were properly implemented.
