List of Findings and Violations

Inadequate Design Change Modification for Reactor Vessel Head Vent Solenoid Valves Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.14] - 71111.17T Systems NCV 05000498/2020002-01 Conservative Open/Closed Bias The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50,

Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to recognize critical differences between the replacement controllers for the new solenoid valves that rendered both trains of the reactor vessel head vent system vulnerable to a common mode failure.

Specifically, the licensee installed a modification in the reactor vessel head vent system that resulted in a loss of the system safety function for greater than the technical specification allowed outage time.

Failure to Follow Procedure During A Surveillance Results in an Inoperable Train of Essential Cooling Water Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.12] - Avoid 71111.22 Systems NCV 05000498,05000499/2020002-02 Complacency Open/Closed A self-revealed Green non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1.a, Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 3.m, Service Water System, was documented for the failure to follow the surveillance procedure for the Unit 2, train A, essential cooling water (ECW) which challenged system operability. Specifically, plant equipment operators in the ECW pump room failed to implement step 5.2.2 of Procedure 0PSP03-EW-0017, Essential Cooling Water System Train A Testing, Revision 41, to verify ECW self-cleaning strainer was running, instead, the plant equipment operator performed step 5.4.2 that secured the ECW self-cleaning strainer.

Inadequate Risk Assessment of Switchyard Activities Results in Loss of 345kV South Bus Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Initiating Events Green [H.1] - 71153 NCV 05000498,05000499/2020002-03 Resources Open/Closed The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) for the failure to perform an adequate risk assessment to manage the increase in risk of performing activities in the switchyard. Specifically, on March 24, 2020, the licensee failed to implement risk mitigative actions during switchyard maintenance activities, and the result was the loss of the 345kV south bus, partial loss of offsite power to both Units 1 and 2.

Unit 1 began the inspection period in Mode 6 during refueling outage 1RE22. The main generator breaker was closed on April 17, 2020, ending the refueling outage. Unit 1 reached rated thermal power on April 22, 2020, and remained there for the rest of the period.

Unit 2 operated at rated thermal power for the entire 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/readingrm/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 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 and during that time 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 portions 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

Inadequate Design Change Modification for Reactor Vessel Head Vent Solenoid Valves Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.14] - 71111.17T Systems NCV 05000498/2020002-01 Conservative Open/Closed Bias The inspectors identified a self-revealed, Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to recognize critical differences between the replacement controllers for the new solenoid valves that rendered both trains of the reactor vessel head vent system vulnerable to a common mode failure.

Specifically, the licensee installed a modification in the reactor vessel head vent system that resulted in a loss of the system safety function for greater than the technical specification allowed outage time.

Description:

On October 30, 2018, the licensee replaced A1RCHCV0601 and B1RCHCV0602, the solenoid operated valves for the reactor vessel head vent system, with a new bolted bonnet design and new positioner controllers. The engineering change package failed to recognize that the new controller circuitry had overvoltage protection system that shorted the power supply to ground when voltage limits for the controller card were exceeded. Additionally, the licensee failed to recognize that the DC power supply in use was not well regulated and was subject to large voltage spikes under varying conditions. On November 2, 2018, the licensee noted that power supply fuses for HCV0601 had again blown.

On December 31, 2018, reactor head vent throttle valve (RHVTV) 'A' (HCV0601)unexpectedly auto transferred to the auxiliary shutdown panel and the control room declared the valve inoperable. With one train of the reactor vessel head system inoperable, the licensee failed to establish additional operator actions to verify the operability of the remaining train.

On July 30, 2019, a training instructor with students discovered that reactor vessel head vent valve 'B' (HCV0602) control unit had a blown fuse and the control room declared valve HCV0602 inoperable. Following a review of records and logs, Engineering determined that the fuse to reactor vessel head vent valve 'B' had blown on or about June 24, 2019. This failure would have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident (both vent valves being declared inoperable at the same time)and exceeded the technical specification action statement allowed outage time of 30 days.

This event is considered a loss of a safety function.

The licensee implemented multiple corrective actions attempting to correct the condition before the underlying cause was fully understood. These included installing higher amperage fuses, replacing the terminal box noise suppressors, installing metal oxide varistor at the positioners, and installing an RC (resistive capacitive) filter across the 125VDC at the positioners HCV0601 and HCV0602 as additional protection. After contacting the vendor, the licensee determined that the underlying cause of the failures was an inadequately regulated DC power supply and decided that installation of a better regulated DC power supply, to filter any voltage transients caused by electromagnetic or radio frequency interference, was necessary to correct the problem.

Corrective Actions: This condition has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-2020-5798. As an interim action, the licensee powers down the reactor vessel head vent positioners before any planned start of the emergency diesel generators or their fans and checks the power fuses after any unplanned start of the emergency diesel generators or their fans.

Corrective Action References: Condition Report CR-2020-5798

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The licensees failure to recognize critical differences between the replacement controllers overvoltage protection system was a performance deficiency.

Specifically, the failure to understand the differences between the original valve controller and the replacement introduced a common mode failure to both trains. This combined with a failure to implement adequate compensatory measures following inadequate corrective actions resulted in a loss of safety function for greater than technical specification allowed outage time.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the design control 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.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. This failure could have prevented the fulfillment of the safety function needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident (both vent valves being declared inoperable at the same time) and exceeded the technical specification action statement allowed outage time of 30 days. This event is considered a loss of a safety function, but the finding did not result in a loss of PRA function of a single train, or multiple trains of a technical Specification piece of equipment for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or allowed outage time, and is therefore of very low safety significance, Green.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.14 - Conservative Bias: Individuals use decision-making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. A proposed action is determined to be safe in order to proceed, rather than unsafe in order to stop. The licensee failed to fully evaluate the design of the overvoltage protection system for the new controllers and assumed it functioned similar to the overvoltage protection of the original controllers., .

Enforcement:

Violation: Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires, in part, that the design control measures shall provide for verifying or checking the adequacy of design by the performance of a suitable testing program. The verifying or checking process shall be performed by individuals or groups other than those who performed the original design, but who may be from the same organization. Where a test program is used to verify the adequacy of a specific design feature in lieu of other verifying or checking processes, it shall include suitable qualifications testing of a prototype unit under the most adverse design conditions. Design changes, including field changes, shall be subject to design control measures commensurate with those applied to the original design and be approved by the organization that performed the original design unless the applicant designates another responsible organization.

Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to ensure that the design changes that replaced the reactor vessel head vent valve position controllers were fully evaluated to fully evaluate the design of the overvoltage protection system for the new controllers and assumed it functioned similar to the overvoltage protection of the original controllers. This evaluation should have ensured that the circuitry was compatible with the DC power supply providing power to the valves and controllers.

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

Failure to Follow Procedure During a Surveillance Results in an Inoperable Train of Essential Cooling Water Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Mitigating Green [H.12] - Avoid 71111.22 Systems NCV 05000498,05000499/2020002-02 Complacency Open/Closed A self-revealed Green non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1.a, Regulatory Guide 1.33, Section 3.m, Service Water System, was documented for the failure to follow the surveillance procedure for the Unit 2, train A, essential cooling water (ECW) which challenged system operability. Specifically, plant equipment operators in the ECW pump room failed to implement step 5.2.2 of procedure 0PSP03-EW-0017, Essential Cooling Water System Train A Testing, Revision 41, to verify ECW self-cleaning strainer was running, instead, the plant equipment operator performed step 5.4.2 that secured the ECW self-cleaning strainer.

Description:

On June 20, 2020, during a Unit 2, train A, ECW surveillance, 0PSP03-EW-0017, Essential Cooling Water System Train A Testing, Revision 41, the control room requested the plant equipment operator to perform step 5.2.2 to verify the ECW strainer was running. The plant equipment operator (PEO1) repeated the request back to the control room operator correctly, to perform Step 5.2.2. With the concurrence of an experienced plant equipment operator (PEO2) in the field peer checking, PEO1 performed step 5.4.2 to remove the strainer from service. A visual and audible alarm immediately sounded in the control indicating that the train was in an abnormal alignment. Operations immediately declared the train A ECW inoperable. Control room operators immediately asked the plant equipment operators (PEO1 and PEO2) to stop any further actions, and using the 0POP02-EW-0001, Essential Cooling Water Operations, Revision 83, promptly restored the ECW train to an operable status.

The license determined that the PEOs (performer and peer checker) were both present at the pre-job brief. During the brief, operations discovered that PEO1 had never performed this surveillance, so PEO2 was assigned to peer-check the evolution. PEO1 was seen highlighting steps to be performed in the field. After the issue, PEO1 stated that it was loud and could not hear very well, the first step highlighted was step 5.4.2, not step 5.2.2, and the peer-checker was rendered useless by not providing appropriate oversight of this activity.

The licensees prompt human performance checklist determined that the PEO1 performed the wrong step, therefore failed to operate the plant in accordance with the procedure and was over reliant on the highlighted portions of the procedure. The high noise level challenged communications.

Corrective Actions: Unit 2 control room operations suspended the surveillance, restored train A ECW to an operable status within 4-minutes per a normal system operating procedure. Following an investigation, a lessons learned was distributed to the rest of the operations department.

Corrective Action References: Condition Report CR 2020-6765

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The failure to follow an operations surveillance procedure involving safety-related equipment, which operability, was a performance deficiency. Specifically, while performing a surveillance on the Unit 2 train A ECW, plant equipment operators in the field performed step 5.4.2 of Procedure 0PSP03-EW-0017, Essential Cooling Water System Train A Testing, Revision 41, to secure the essential cooling water self-cleaning strainer instead of the directed step 5.2.2 which was to ensure that the essential cooling water self-cleaning strainer was running. This inappropriate action challenged train A ECW operability. Unit 2 operators restored the train to its original configuration within 4 minutes.

Screening: The inspectors determined 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. Specifically, the plant equipment operators human performance error resulted in an inoperable ECW train and an unexpected entry into a 7-day Technical Specification action statement.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. Specifically, the finding did not result in a loss of PRA function of a single train, or multiple trains of a technical specification piece of equipment for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or allowed outage time, and is therefore of very low safety significance, Green.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.12 - Avoid Complacency: Individuals recognize and plan for the possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while expecting successful outcomes. Individuals implement appropriate error reduction tools. Specifically, the Unit 2 plant equipment operators did not consider potential undesirable consequences of their actions before performing surveillance procedure steps and did not implement appropriate error-reduction tools.

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specification 6.8.1.a, requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained in accordance with Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Section 3.m, Procedures for Startup, Operation, and Shutdown of Safety-Related PWR Systems, of that appendix, requires, in part, that that the instructions for energizing, startup, shutdown, and changing mode of operation should be prepared for the service water system (essential cooling water at South Texas Project). The licensee established 0PSP03-EW-0017, Essential Cooling Water System Train A Testing, Revision 41, to meet the Regulatory Guide requirement. Step 5.2.2 states, Verify ECW SELF CLEANING STRAINER 1A(2A) is running.

Contrary to the above, on June 20, 2020, plant equipment operators failed to follow the step 5.2.2 and actually performed step 5.4.2 which secured the essential cooling water self-cleaning strainer, thereby challenging train A inoperability. This was an unplanned 7-day shutdown action statement of Technical Specification 3.7.7.

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

Licensee-Identified Non-Cited Violation 71152 This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Violation: This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensees corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Technical Specification 6.8.1.a, Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, 1978, Section 9, states that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly preplanned and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances.

Contrary to the above, on September 17, 2019, maintenance (troubleshooting) was performed on the Unit 1 train C essential chiller without written instructions or procedures.

Specifically, an electrical supervisor was contacted by Unit 1 control room and asked to look at the chiller due to apparent drifting chiller output temperature discovered on an operator round. The electrical supervisor actually manipulated the operable and protected safety-related essential chiller and left a temperature control switch in off position.

Operations returned, with the electrical supervisor, a short time later to procedurally verify the temperature control loop operation and discovered the switch out of position. At that time the electrical supervisor voluntarily admitted to manipulating the component without permission or procedure.

Significance/Severity: Green. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process For Findings At-Power, dated December 13, 2019, the inspectors determined that the performance deficiency did not result in a loss of PRA function of a single train, or multiple trains of a technical specification piece of equipment for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or allowed outage time and is therefore of very low safety significance.

Corrective Action References: Condition Report CR 2019-10223 Observation: Semi-Annual Trend Review 71152 The inspectors reviewed the licensees corrective action program entries, maintenance activities, emergent maintenance issues, plant health reports, outage performance reviews, NRC generated condition reports, and NRC inspector walkdowns.

The inspectors noted and documented the following issues and trends:

  • As documented in NRC Inspection Report IR 2019-004, there continues to be issues with station personnel consistently and reliably following station procedures. Recent examples are: 1) failure to follow the correct procedure step which resulted in making the Unit 1 train A ECW inoperable (CR 2020-6765), 2) an electrical supervisor failed to get permission or follow any applicable procedure to troubleshoot and manipulate the Unit 1 train C essential chiller temperature control module vein switch and resulted in making the train inoperable (CR 2019-10223), 3) during the Unit 1 train B emergency diesel generator 6-year maintenance electricians wired relays incorrectly, which led to an extra 2 days of unavailability and contributed to an unplanned entry into the Configuration Risk Management Program (CR 2020-1854), and 4) a plant equipment operator performing a restoration procedure on the wrong diesel generator resulted in making the Unit 1 train B emergency diesel generator inoperable (CR 2019-5842). While the licensee has taken action to lower the number of events, the inoperability of equipment with a failure to implement and follow procedures is an unacceptable trend.
  • The resident inspectors as well as the licensee, both recognize a trend related to vendor performance due to a lack of adequate vendor oversight. Recent examples to support the trend are: 1) vendor involved in the loss of the 345kV south bus (CR 2020-3665), vendor at the main cooling reservoir river make up facility that leaked hydraulic fluid into the Colorado River which required three notifications to the state of Texas (CR 2020-1924, -3285, -5777), 3) main turbine vendor that inadvertently closed on instrument air valve (which was a near miss for a reactor trip)and issues with high pressure turbine replacement which resulted in an unnecessary heavy lift of plant equipment (CR 2020-5491, -2349), 4) vendor issues with reactor vessel head tensioning which extended the time with reactor coolant system level at head flange level (CR 2020-4352), 5) the vendor maintenance on check valve RH-32 that failed to resolve leak by and resulted in a significant challenge to Unit 1 operation and required a license amendment to temporarily resolve (CR 2020-4781), and 6) vendor failed to fabricate an adequate ECW travelling screen replacement (20-1490). The licensee initiated Condition Reports CR 2020-5829 and 2020-5911 to note the trend and the quality department elevating the trend for additional focus and resolution, respectively.
  • The inspectors identified a trend in the number of persistent issues in the emergency diesel generator systems. Recent examples include: 1) multiple issues with emergency diesel generators failing to enter into their cooldown mode - after unloading the diesel and shutting it off, the diesel is, by design, run for 5-minutes before completely securing. This function is not safety-related and failure is indicative of a failed relay, but in order to prove operability the diesel must be fast started, which can impact service life due to unnecessary wear on the diesels, 2) repeated air leaks from the starting air system, 3) issues with remote monitoring of fuel oil tank levels from the control room, 4) maintenance rule unavailability for the Unit 1 train B diesel, which has been in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) status since June 2019 due to unavailability hours, but has continued to accumulate unavailability due to a combination of equipment issues, inadequate maintenance scheduling and human performance issues, and 5) a cracked exhaust manifold that has required a significant amount of engineering, maintenance, and operations resources to justify operability, as well as persistent NRC inspector challenges. The licensee failed to take advantage of opportunities to replace the exhaust manifold and have rescheduled the proper repair of the manifold several times and is now scheduled in November 2020 due to summer peak operations and COVID-19. If the schedule holds, the station will have been living with this issue, on a highly risk-significant plant component, for 15 months. The residents had discussions with engineering and maintenance on June 11, 2020, to express the concern of these numerous issues and the possibility that they could cloud and make future issues more difficult to diagnose. The licensee acknowledged the trend and initiated Condition Report CR 2020-7746 to further evaluate and resolve the trend.

Licensee-Identified Non-Cited Violation 71153 This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

Violation: Technical Specification 3.6.1.1, Primary Containment, requires that primary containment integrity shall be maintained.

Contrary to the above, from September 3, 2019, until September 5, 2019, Unit 2 primary containment integrity was not maintained. Specifically, the Unit 2 inside containment hydrogen monitoring sample inlet test valve (2-CM-0005) was open at the same time as outside containment post-accident sampling system (PASS) test vent valve (2-AP-0004).

The outside containment PASS air sample isolation valve (2-AP-2456) located between these two valves was being replaced due to leakage. This configuration provided a pathway through containment penetration M-82D which is comprised of one-inch diameter piping.

Significance/Severity: Green. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix H, Containment Integrity Significance Determination Process, dated April 30, 2020, the inspectors determined that this performance deficiency did not appreciably increase the Large Early Release Frequency for Unit 2 due to the small size of the piping involved. For this reason, the inspectors concluded that the finding is of very low safety significance (Green).

Inadequate Risk Assessment of Switchyard Activities Results in Loss of 345kV South Bus Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Report Aspect Section Initiating Events Green [H.1] - 71153 NCV 05000498,05000499/2020002-03 Resources Open/Closed The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing Green non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) for the failure to perform an adequate risk assessment to manage the increase in risk of performing activities in the switchyard. Specifically, on March 24, 2020, the licensee failed to implement risk mitigative actions during switchyard maintenance activities because of an inadequate risk assessment, which resulted in the loss of the 345kV south bus, which was a partial loss of offsite power to both Units 1 and 2.

Description:

On March 24, 2020, Unit 1 was defueled during Refueling Outage 1RE22, while Unit 2 was in Mode 1 at full power. Unit 1 had train B emergency diesel generator (EDG) in operation carrying the 4160kV bus due to planned maintenance. Unit 2 had no Technical Specification components out of service. Transmission and distribution service provider (TDSP) personnel were performing transmission line relay testing on a 345kV line.

At 10:46 a.m., TDSP personnel had a human performance error while performing relay testing caused by applying test equipment to the wrong relay which resulted in the south bus and standby transformer 2 lockouts. The effects on the units are as follows (All equipment responded and functioned as designed without issue.):

Unit 1 Unit 1 experienced an undervoltage condition on trains A and C engineered safety features (ESF) buses, both associated EDGs started and powered the ESF buses. The 1B spent fuel pool cooling pump lost power leaving only the 1A pump in service. The time-to-boil in spent fuel pool was 11 hours1.273148e-4 days <br />0.00306 hours <br />1.818783e-5 weeks <br />4.1855e-6 months <br />. Operators restored full spent fuel pool cooling at 10:56 a.m.,

10 minutes following the loss of one train of cooling, with a non-detectable increase in spent fuel pool temperature. One fuel bundle was also in the process of being moved and was suspended due to the loss of power. On the turbine deck, a small load was suspended over the deck. Unit 1 had all three EDGs in operation carrying all ESF buses, and all outage activities were ceased.

Unit 2 Unit 2 experienced an undervoltage condition on the train B ESF bus and its associated EDG started and powered the ESF bus. The 2A spent fuel pool cooling pump was lost leaving only the 2B pump in service. The time-to-boil in the spent fuel pool was 45 hours5.208333e-4 days <br />0.0125 hours <br />7.440476e-5 weeks <br />1.71225e-5 months <br />. Full spent fuel pool cooling was restored at 12:31 p.m.

The three ESF buses (Unit 1 trains A and C, and Unit 2 train B) were re-aligned to the Unit 1 standby transformer 1, which is powered by the 345kV north bus, and EDGs were secured.

TDSP replaced the damaged components and the 345 south bus was restored at 9:32 p.m.

The Unit 2 train B ESF bus was then realigned to standby transformer 2 at 10:05 p.m. Both units were completely restored to normal configuration at this time.

The inspectors reviewed the licensees root cause evaluation. The evaluation identified the direct root cause of the event to be a human performance error by TDSP employees in the switchyard. The TDSP employees energized and began testing the wrong relay which resulted in the lockout of the 345kV south bus and the standby transformer 2. Because the human performance error belonged to the TDSP employees and corrective action to prevent recurrence was determined to be unfeasible, corrective actions were focused on South Texas Project programs and processes to correct and prevent a similar issue from re-occurring.

The inspectors determined that the evaluation was thorough and reviewed the long-standing history of issues with switchyard work management going as far back as the early 1990s.

There was a similar event in 2010, in which the 345kV north bus was lost due to a TDSP employee human performance issue. Corrective actions from that event appear to have been mildly effective and short lived. The procedure at the center of the event is 0PGP03-XS-0001, Switchyard Management and its eight revisions since 2010. The procedures purpose is to define and facilitate the process for scheduling and performing maintenance in the switchyard as well assessing the risk for any given work activity. Over the years, the licensee vaguely adhered to the switchyard management procedure and it is evident that South Texas Project management has not supported the procedure and program well enough to consistently maintain a well-qualified switchyard coordinator who can properly implement the program. The initial work that was scheduled during this most recent Unit 1 refueling outage (1RE22) was initially presented by a switchyard coordinator in April 2019.

That switchyard coordinator retired and was replaced with a coordinator that was not fully qualified in August 2019. The switchyard work was reviewed again prior to the outage and the new coordinator determined that the maintenance work by TDSP would not be an Impactive Activity in accordance with the vague definition of an Impactful Activity in the switchboard management procedure. As a result, STP did not implement risk mitigative actions, such as conducting a pre-job brief with TDSP personnel providing direct oversight of the vendor, which failed to prevent the unexpected partial loss of offsite power.

Corrective Actions: Immediate actions were to stand down the TDSP work in the switchyard, to implement human performance error reduction tools to further possible errors in the switchyard, restore spent fuel pool cooling in both units, and to restore the 345kV south bus and normal ESF bus alignments. The corrective actions from the root cause evaluation involve strengthening the 0PGP03-XS-0001, Switchyard Management procedure, specifically focusing on the roles and responsibilities for the Switchyard Coordinator and reinvigorating the South Texas Project management participation in re-establishing a collaborative working relationship with the TDSP.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The failure to adequately assess maintenance risk for switchyard relay testing was a performance deficiency.

Screening: The inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the protection against external factors attribute and adversely affected the Initiating Events Cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during power operations.

Specifically, while TDSP workers were performing maintenance activities in the 345kV switchyard, a human performance error resulted in a loss of the 345kV south bus which was a partial loss of power for both units.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix K, Maintenance Risk Assessment and Risk Management SDP. A note in the appendix given below:

Note: This guidance does not apply to the following situations:

(1) those licensees who only perform qualitative analyses of plant configuration risk due to maintenance activities, or
(2) performance deficiencies related to maintenance activities affecting SSCs needed for fire or seismic mitigation. When performance deficiencies are identified with either 1 or 2 above, the significance of the deficiencies must be determined by an internal NRC management review using risk insights where possible in accordance with IMC 612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports.

Because the licensee uses qualitative analyses for all switchyard work, Situation 1 above applies. Therefore, the significance of this performance deficiency must be determined by internal NRC management review. It should be noted that the internal management review was an artifact of the early significance determination process that was superseded by Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix M, Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria, issued in December of 2006 after the current revision of Appendix K.

Therefore, the inspectors requested that the senior reactor analyst initiate a review in accordance with Appendix M.

Appendix M, step 4.1, Initial Evaluation, directs the user to determine if there are any significance colors that can reasonably be excluded from further consideration using available quantitative and/or qualitative methods and best available information. The senior reactor analyst reviewed the licensees risk evaluation of the event that occurred on March 24, 2020. While this evaluation was mostly qualitative, it specifically addressed the impact to core damage frequency from the event. The performance deficiency was the failure to perform a risk assessment prior to the work in the switchyard. The analyst noted that, while risk management actions are used to protect redundant equipment, wrong-component events are not explicitly modeled when performing a maintenance rule risk assessment. Therefore, the analyst determined that the licensees assessment would bound the appropriate maintenance rule evaluation. Based on the licensees assessment and other information available to the analyst, the analyst determined that the finding was of, at most, very low safety significance, Green.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: H.1 - Resources: Leaders ensure that personnel, equipment, procedures, and other resources are available and adequate to support nuclear safety.

Specifically, South Texas Project site management failed to ensure they adequately supported the switchyard management program, procedure and to provide an adequately trained switchyard coordinator without collateral responsibilities to ensure error free maintenance in the 345kV switchyard.

Enforcement:

Violation: 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(4) states, in part, before performing maintenance activities (including but not limited to surveillance, post-maintenance testing, and corrective and preventive maintenance), the licensee shall assess and manage the increase in risk that may result from the proposed maintenance activities. The licensee uses Procedure 0PGP03-XS-0001, Switchyard Management, Revision 8, to assess and manage the risk from switchyard maintenance activities.

Contrary to the above, on March 24, 2020, licensee personnel failed to adequately assess and manage the risk from switchyard maintenance activities. Specifically, the failure to recognize the increased risk and take risk mitigative actions for maintenance activities in the 345kV switchyard, which resulted in a loss of the 345kV south bus, which represented a partial loss of offsite power to both units.

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