SUMMARY

On December 8, 1990, at 0031 hours PST, with Unit-1 in Mode 2 (Startup) at approximately 2% power, steam generator'(SG)'l-3 level exceeded the 67% narrow range level setpoint initiating a P-14 signal, an engineered safety feature (EST) T actuation. The root cause of the event was leakage through feedwater regulating and bypass valves FW-1-FCV-530 and FW-1-FCV-1530.- Leakage past feedwater check valve FW-1-531 and feedwater-recirculation control valve.FW-1-FCV-420. contributed to'this event. Other contributing causes include plant management's-

  '                    failure to recognize the consequences of.the combined leakage of the feedwater check and regulating valves, and-to provide direction for either a timely repair of the'feedwater valves or an adequate strategy for operators to enable them to. start the Unit with leaking feedwater valves.

Operating procedure OP L-3 was revised to include steps to check' for main feedwater regulating and bypass valve leakage during startup, and to provide guidance for taking action to deal with any leakage identified. OP L-3 was also revised to require isolating FW-1-FCV-420 when it is not in service.- FW-1-FCV-420 was outage. isolated and will be repaired during the next refueling Corrective maintenance-was performed on FW-1-FCV-530, FW-1-FCV-1530 and FW-1-531 during a Unit'l forced outage. Further maintenance will be performed.on FW-1-FCV-530.during the. next refueling outage. A memorandum was issued to' plant staff. regarding this event. Operators were informed to.obtain management; concurrence on recovery plans. 90NCRWP\900PN083.JCN Page 1 of 15

DC1-90-OP-N083 I 'I i February 8,1991 P-14 ESF ACTUATION DUE TO VALVE LEAKAGE I. Plant Conditiong Unit 1 was in Mode 2 (Startup) at approximately 2 percent reactor power. The plant was in the process of starting up from a reactor trip which occurred on December 5, 1990. II. Descrintion of Event A. Event: On December 8, 1990, at 0031 hours'PST, with Unit 1 in Mode 2 (Startup) at 2 percent reactor power, ! steam generator (SG) 1-3 exceeded the 67 percent I narrow range level setpoint, which initiated a P-14 signal. This engineered safety feature (ESP) l actuation occurred during the transfer of the feedwater flow controls from auxiliary feedwater to automatic main feedwater level control and resulted in main feedwater isolation, main feedwater_ pump (MFP) 1-2 trip, and main turbine trip. Figure 1 provides a schematic of the main feedwater system. . Three days earlier, on December 5, 1990, Unit 1 had experienced a reactor trip. During recovery from that trip, backleakage was experienced through SG 1-3 inlet feedwater check valve FW-1-531. Operations m&nagement believed this leakage to be within the capability of the operators control since similar leakage had been observed during. previous startups. Therefore, valve corrective actions were deferred until the next Unit i refueling outage. On December 7, 1990, at approximately 2300 hours, the control room operators had just completed the procedural steps to place MFP 1-2 in service with , pump speed adjusted for a feedwater/ main steam i differential pressure of approximately zero psid. Main feedwater isolation valve FW-1-FCV-440 was open. Feedwater regulating and bypass valves, FW l FCV-530 and FW-1-FCV-1530, respectively, indicated

zero demand with the feedwater controller in l automatic.

( February 8,1991 On December 8, 1990, shortly after 0000 hours, the control room operators observed that SG 1-3 level l was decreasing, with indicated auxiliary feedwater (AFW) flow to SG 1-3 greater than flow to the other three SGs. This problem was initially diagnosed by the operators as backleakage through feedwater check valve FW-1-531 because, as discussed above, backleakage was experienced during recovery from the December 5, 1990 reactor trip. Backleakage was also experienced during previous startups when low differential pressures existed across the check valve. To increase SG 1-3 level, operators increased speed on MFP 1-2 to prevent the backleakage and feed SG 1-3 from the main feedwater system. The level in SG 1-3 rapidly increased beyond its normal no-load level setpoinL. The control room operatars attempted to close feedwater regulating and bypass , valves FW-1-FCV-530 and FW-1-FCV-1530 by manually I decreasing valve demand, even though the demand was at zero. This action appeared to terminate the l initial steam generator level increase, so the decision was made to proceed with the Unit 1 startup. The main feedwater controls were placed in automatic and the level in SG 1-3, as indicated on the narrow and wide range level instrumentation, immediately began to increase. Wide range level appeared to stpbilize shortly into the transient. The control room operators concluded that the narrow range level increase was caused by SG swell and since wide' range level did not show an incrcasing trend, the reactor power was slowly increased. Reactor coolant system (RCS) temperature was increasing and the steam dumps opened. The narrow range level increased to 67 percent, causing the P-14 actuation. The Operations crew on shift determined that the P-14 actuation was  : caused by steam generator overfeeding due to leakage ' past feedwater regulating valve FW-1-FCV-530 and/or feedwater regulating bypass valve FW-1-FCV-1530, and  ; subsequent SG swell during steam dump actuation. At that point, it could not be definitively determined which valve or whether both valves were leaking because the valves are in parallel. l Operators restored plant conditions to those which I existed prior to the P-14 actuation and continued l 90NCRWP\900PN083.JCN Page 3 of 15 1

Immediate Cause: l l The immediate cause for the SG'high-high level I signal was that'SG 1-3 level exceeded-the P-14 - actuation setpoint due to overfill and subsequent swell during'startup.- B. Root Cause: I The root cause of the event was leakage through. l feedwater regulating valve FW-1-FCV-530fand feedwater regulating bypass valve FW-1-FCV-1530. FW-1-FCV-530 was stroke tested during a UnitJ1 forced outage which began on December 23, 1990,_'and it was determined that leakage through this. valve l was due to valve position controller. drift. 'FW FCV-1530 was disassembled and inspected during;the same forced outage. ' Leakage through this' valve was l also due to valve pouition controller drift. C. Cdhtributory Cause: i 1. Backleakage through SG 1-3 inlet feedwater-l check' valve FW-1-531'due to a slight-l misalignment of.the check valve disc contributed to this event'since.the leakage through FW-1-531 in combination.with leaknge through FW-1-FCV-530 and FW-1-FCV-1530 initiated the level transient in-SG'l-3.

I DC1-90-OP-N083 ' February 8,1991 , for potential effect on feedwater line integrity and for potential effect on water supply to the SGs. Valve integrity was investigated by physical l inspection of the valve. The valve inspection showed no physAcal damage to the disc or seat that l would impair disc movement or lead to catastrophic ! disc failure. The leakage was due to misalignment of the disc and the seat which resulted in lack of l contact on the full circumference of the seat. At higher pressure differentials, the disc would elastically deflect and provide a seal, as was evident by successful surveillance test results. The inspection verified there was no impairment in integrity or in the ability to close in response to l a differential pressure of greater than 500 paig. The effect of FW check valve leakage on fe'edwater delivery to the SGs was investigated by evaluating the check valve leakage on the performance of the AFW system. Chapter 6 of the FSAR Update summarizes the flow requirements for the various design basis accidents. As shown in FSAR Update Table 6.5-2, a minimum flow of 440 gpm is required to be delivered to two SGs 10 minutes after a main feedwater line break. The main feedwater line break accident is the most limiting Chapter 15 accident with respect to AFW flow requirements. The feedwater line break accident was reviewed to evaluate the effect of a leak in the feedwater line check valve. The worst case scenario is censiderad to be a feedwater line break occurring in SG 2, one of the two steam 4 generators which supplies steam for the turbine ' driven auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) pump. The l leaking feedwater line check valve is in che i feedwater line to SG 3 which is the second source of steam to the TDAFW pump turbine. In this case, the feedwater line break would result in a rapid loss of steam pressure in the affected SG and the check { valve leak would reduce auxiliary feedwater flow to I the other steam generator (SG 3). The availability of the steam sources for the TDAFW pump turbine were evaluated. SG 2 would be faulted due to the feedwater line break and would not be considered a viable steam source. Further, the delivery of auxiliary feedwater to SG 3 would be reduced due to backleakage through the feedwater check valve. SG 3 inventory and steam pressure may s 90NCRWP\900PN083.JCN Page 7 of 15

i l l I I 'DC1-90-OP-N083 ( February 6; -1991 decay as a result of reduced auxiliary.feedwater flow. The inventory and pressure decay would be slow, however, and.SG 3 would provideEsteam for some period. Since the steam pressure response of the SG-has not been quantified, a conservative. approach was taken by assuming no steam would km 'available. from-SG 3. Thus, the TDAFW pump'is conservatively. assumed to be not operable. This feedwater line break' scenario was evaluated with the application:or a single failure. The

                                       ~

limiting single failure is1 bus H_which takes, motor driven auxiliary-feedwater (MDAFW)fpumpL2 out of. l service. The bus:H failurejalso_ removes power!from the feedwater isolation valve onLthe_.SG 3 feedwater line. . Without power, the-feedwaterLisolation: valve - FW-1-FCV-440_would not close on the safety 1 injection- ' signal and would- not11solate_ the check valve leak. i With the leak not~ isolated,-full AFW delivery to_SG l 3 could'be impaired and,_ consequently, FSAR' Update j flow requirements may.not be satisfied. This single I failure results in MDAFW pump'3? feeding the: .  ! feedwater line (SG 3)1with.the leaking check valve H and feeding the unaffected SG'4. . Due toLthef . l feedwater check valve leakage, the delivery of AFW' l to SG 3 could be reduced. This.would result inoSG.3 levels decreasing faster than'SG 4' levels. . This-disparity would be evident:to the control' room - operators. The operators <would close.the auxiliary l feedwater regulating valves.from.the' control room-

1. DC2-89-OP-N042, " Main Turbine Trip and Feedwater Isolation due to a Feedwater Regulating Valve not being Fully closed during Surveillance Testing". The corrective actions for this NCR cautioned operators to ensure l feedwater regulating and bypass' valves are l fully closed during surveillance testing and l was therefore too specific to prevent the December 8, 1990 P-14 trip as surveillance was not being performed e.t that time.

2. DC1-87-OP-N134, "High-high Level in SG 1-1 (P-l 14) Resulted in Turbine Trip". The corrective actions for this NCR was the issue of an
operator awareness bulletin cautioning i operators of the possibility of level

) instability when switching'the feedwater system i between manual and automatic level control.

3. DC1-87-OP-N014, " Unit 1 Turbine / reactor Trip due to P-14". The corrective actions for this NCR was performance of startup testing of the feedwater control system. Since this event the feedwater level control system has been replaced with a digital system so these corrective actions could not have prevented the recent P-14 event.
