PLANT STATUS

Unit 1 began the inspection period at rated thermal power (RTP). On July 20, 2020, Unit 1 was down powered and subsequently taken offline on July 21, 2020, due to degraded condenser vacuum caused by eel grass accumulation at the intake pumping station. The Unit was restarted on July 29, 2020 and returned to RTP on August 3, 2020. Unit 1 began its feedwater reduction and coastdown on September 17, 2020 and finished the inspection period at 85 percent RTP.

Unit 2 began the inspection period at RTP. On July 20, 2020, Unit 2 was taken offline due to degraded condenser vacuum caused by eel grass accumulation at the intake pumping station.

The Unit was restarted on July 27, 2020 and returned to RTP on August 2, 2020. On August 4, 2020, Unit 2 began a planned down power to approximately 30 percent RTP for waterbox cleaning and coolant leak repairs on the 2A variable frequency drive (VFD). Unit 2 returned to RTP on August 9, 2020, where it remained for the duration of the inspection period.

Unit 3 began the inspection period at RTP. On July 1, 2020, the Unit was down powered to 67 percent RTP due to a spurious trip of the 3C reactor feed pump (RFP). Following repairs, the Unit was returned to RTP on July 3, 2020. On July 20, 2020, Unit 3 power was reduced to 76 percent RTP due to degraded condenser vacuum caused by eel grass accumulation at the intake pumping station. The Unit returned to RTP on July 22, 2020, where it remained 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 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. Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), resident and regional inspectors were directed to begin telework and to remotely access licensee information using available technology. During this time the resident inspectors performed periodic site visits each week, increasing the amount of time on site as local COVID-19 conditions permitted. As part of their onsite activities, resident inspectors conducted plant status activities as described in IMC 2515, Appendix D; observed risk significant activities; and completed on site portions of IPs. In addition, resident and regional baseline inspections were evaluated to determine if all or portion of the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be performed remotely. If the inspections could be performed remotely, they were conducted per the applicable IP. In some cases, portions of an IP were completed remotely and on site. The inspections documented below met the objectives and requirements for completion of the IP.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Failure to Properly Implement Procedural Requirements to Resolve a Mispositioned Control Rod.

Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Barrier Integrity Green [H.9] - Training 71153 NCV 05000259/2020003-01 Open/Closed The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated Non-cited Violation (NCV) of Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures, when the licensee failed to comply with 1-AOI-85-7, Mispositioned Control Rod, by placing a mispositioned control rod in a position not prescribed by procedural requirements.

Description:

On July 30, 2020 during control rod withdrawal to support power ascension during startup of Unit 1, the operator-at-the-controls (OATC) withdrew a control rod to position 24 before realizing he had passed the control rod's intended position of 14. The Unit 1 crew entered Abnormal Operating Instruction 1-AOI-85-7, Mispositioned Control Rod. 1-AOI-85-7 requires a control rod that is greater than 2 notches from its intended position to be inserted to position 00 (fully inserted). The Unit 1 nuclear unit senior operator (NUSO) consulted with the observing reactor engineer (RE) and directed the OATC to insert the mispositioned control rod to its intended position, 14, contrary to the 1-AOI-85-7 requirement to place the rod at position 00. The NUSO requested the RE model the event with the rod at position 24 and determined that adequate margin to all thermal limits and pre-conditioning limits had been maintained.

The Unit 1 operators were then relieved. The relief NUSO requested the RE to model the control rod at positions 14 and 00 and requested a control rod movement data sheet (Attachment 1 of 1-SR-3.1.3.5(A), Control Rod Coupling Integrity Check) for moving the control rod to position 00. Approximately 54 minutes after the control rod was mispositioned, it was inserted to position 00 as required by 1-AOI-85-7.

On September 9, 2020, the inspectors met with the developer of the licensee's Level 2 Evaluation Report, which had been completed on September 1, 2020. The inspectors informed the licensee that the Level 2 Evaluation Report did not include any details or evaluation of the fact that the mispositioned control rod was inserted to position 14 before being inserted to position 00 as required by 1-AOI-85-7. The licensee completed a revision of their Level 2 Evaluation Report on September 23, 2020 to analyze the execution of 1-AOI-85-

7. Corrective Actions: The licensee performed stand downs for operating crews to ensure that

appropriate procedures were reviewed prior to reactivity manipulations. The operating crew was prescribed remediation prior to presumption of duties. The licensee completed a revised Level 2 Evaluation Report.

Corrective Action References: Condition Report #1627098

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to follow the unit abnormal operating instruction for a mispositioned control rod was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the operators maneuvered a mispositioned control rod to its previously intended position of 14 instead of 00 as prescribed by 1-AOI-85-7.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Human Performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, procedural requirements intended to minimize challenges to fuel cladding integrity were not implemented correctly. Prior to placing the mispositioned control rod to position 00, the operating crew maneuvered the control rod from position 24 to position 14 for approximately 54 minutes. 1-AOI-85-7 had no provisions for placing the mispositioned control rod at any position other than 00 when a control rod has been mispositioned by greater than two notches.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. Using Barrier Integrity screening questions, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green)because the fuel cladding integrity was not challenged by the delay in placing the control rod at position 00.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.9 - Training: The organization provides training and ensures knowledge transfer to maintain a knowledgeable, technically competent workforce and instill nuclear safety values. The inspectors determined that operator training did not include training specifically for a control rod being mispositioned by more than two notches by an operator.

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1, Procedures, requires in part that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the activities related to procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 6, Procedures for Combating Emergencies and Other Significant Events, includes Mispositioned Control Rod or Rods. 1-AOI-85-7, Mispositioned Control Rod, Revision 6, Section 4.2.[3] states, in part, that if the control rod is greater than two notches from its intended position, then insert the mispositioned rod to 00. Contrary to the above, on July 30, 2020, the operations crew maneuvered the mispositioned control rod to position 14 for approximately 54 minutes while performing other activities before inserting the control rod to position 00.

Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as an non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
