............ | Summary of Plant StatusUnit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent rated thermal power (RTP) until September 5, 2007, when power was reduced to 55 percent for planned power suppression testing. On September 11, 2007, the unit returned to full power where it remained until the end of the inspection period, except for brief periods to support planned testing and rod pattern adjustments. Unit 3 began the inspection period at 100 percent RTP until July 25, 2007, when the unit began aplanned coastdown toward a refueling outage. On July 28, 2007, an unplanned power reduction to 89 percent was made due to a rapid rise in 3 'A' recirculation pump second stage seal temperature and, while the unit was at reduced power, the fifth stage feedwater heaters were removed from service. The unit returned to full power on July 28, 2007. On August 12, 2007, power was reduced to 93 percent for planned removal of the fourth stage feedwater heaters. The unit returned to full power on August 13, 2007. On August 30, 2007, power was reduced from 92 percent to 82 percent due to another rapid rise in the 3 'A' recirculation pump second stage seal temperature. Power was returned to maximum power for end-of-cycle coastdown on August 31, 2007. | ||
On September 1, 2007, power was reduced from 92 percent to 86 percent due to control rod 34-07 scramming from full out to full in during performance of ST-O-60F-100-3, "Functional Test of Reactor Protection System (RPS) Channel | |||
'A' Scram Test Switches." ON-121, "Drifting Control Rod" procedure was entered and all required actions were performed. After repairs were made, power was returned to maximum power for end-of-cycle coastdown on September 2, 2007, and the plant continued to coastdown until the unit was taken offline for a refueling outage on September 23, 2007, where it remained until the end of the inspection period. | |||

====a. Inspection Scope==== | |||
Based on identification of prior problems with the Unit 2 torus during an NRC InserviceInspection Program inspection and resident inspector input, the inspectors selected condition reports IR 500730, 500728, 500747, 500533, 500534, 500617, 500732, and 500751 as a PI&R sample for a detailed follow-up review. The prior inspection had identified weaknesses in the torus program, such as the follow-up on repaired areas, sample size, sample distribution, pit tracking, repair re-examination, and root cause. | |||
The inspectors assessed Exelon's PI&R program and specific response to the issues raised by the prior NRC inspection. The inspectors reviewed the corrective actions taken in response to the NRC concerns to determine if appropriate cause analyses, extent of condition reviews, and prioritization was undertaken. The inspectors reviewed the timeliness of Exelon's corrective actions to determine whether Exelon was appropriately identifying, characterizing, and correcting problems associated with this issue. This review was undertaken in order to understand if the ultimate corrective action of recoating the torus was being planned in a timely fashion. | |||
====b. Findings and Observations==== | |||
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors determined that Exelon'soverall response to the issue was timely. The inspectors noted that Exelon's evaluation and follow-up corrective actions, as documented, were, in some cases, not completely responsive to the identified concern. Program owners and responsible engineering staff at PBAPS, however, clearly understood the concern and had implemented or were planning programmatic adjustments to accommodate the concerns. "Issue Report 670222, "LTA [Less-Than-Adequate] Documentation to Previously Identified NRC Questions," was written by Peach Bottom to capture this issue and enter it into their corrective action program.".2Inspection of Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) Practices and Corrective Actions Taken toExclude Foreign Material from Entering Plant Systems | |||

REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant StatusUnit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent rated thermal power (RTP) until September 5, 2007, when power was reduced to 55 percent for planned power suppression testing. On September 11, 2007, the unit returned to full power where it remained until the end of the inspection period, except for brief periods to support planned testing and rod pattern adjustments. Unit 3 began the inspection period at 100 percent RTP until July 25, 2007, when the unit began aplanned coastdown toward a refueling outage. On July 28, 2007, an unplanned power reduction to 89 percent was made due to a rapid rise in 3 'A' recirculation pump second stage seal temperature and, while the unit was at reduced power, the fifth stage feedwater heaters were removed from service. The unit returned to full power on July 28, 2007. On August 12, 2007, power was reduced to 93 percent for planned removal of the fourth stage feedwater heaters. The unit returned to full power on August 13, 2007. On August 30, 2007, power was reduced from 92 percent to 82 percent due to another rapid rise in the 3 'A' recirculation pump second stage seal temperature. Power was returned to maximum power for end-of-cycle coastdown on August 31, 2007.
On September 1, 2007, power was reduced from 92 percent to 86 percent due to control rod 34-07 scramming from full out to full in during performance of ST-O-60F-100-3, "Functional Test of Reactor Protection System (RPS) Channel
'A' Scram Test Switches." ON-121, "Drifting Control Rod" procedure was entered and all required actions were performed. After repairs were made, power was returned to maximum power for end-of-cycle coastdown on September 2, 2007, and the plant continued to coastdown until the unit was taken offline for a refueling outage on September 23, 2007, where it remained until the end of the inspection period.

a. Inspection Scope
The inspector selectively reviewed activities and associated documentation in the below listed areas. The evaluation of Exelon's performance in these areas was against criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable TSs, and applicable Exelon procedures. Inspection Planning - Performance IndicatorsThe inspectors reviewed performance indicators (PIs) for the Occupational ExposureCornerstone. The inspectors also discussed and reviewed current performance, relative to the indicators, with cognizant Exelon personnel.Plant Walkdowns, Radiation Work Permit (RWP) Reviews, and Jobs-in-Progress ReviewsThe inspectors walked down selected radiological controlled areas and reviewedhousekeeping, material conditions, posting, barricading, and access controls to radiological areas. The inspectors made selective independent ambient radiation level measurements to verify conditions.
10EnclosureThe inspectors reviewed and discussed internal dose assessments for 2006 and 2007, since the previous inspection, to identify any apparent actual occupational internal doses greater than 50 millirem committed effective dose equivalent. The review also included the adequacy of evaluation of selected dose assessments, as appropriate, and included selected review of the program for evaluation of potential intakes associated with hard-to-detect radionuclides (e.g., transuranics). The inspectors selectively reviewed in-plant source term evaluations including average energy determinations.The inspectors reviewed and discussed the high radiation area controls program withradiation protection supervisors and technicians to identify changes that could potentially reduce program effectiveness and the level of worker protection. Problem Identification and ResolutionThe inspectors selectively reviewed self-assessments and audits since the previousinspection to determine if identified problems were entered into the corrective action program for resolution. The inspectors evaluated the database for repetitive deficiencies or significant individual deficiencies to determine if self-assessment activities were identifying and addressing the deficiencies. The review also included evaluation of data to determine if any problems involved PI events with dose rates greater that 25 R/hr at 30 centimeters, greater than 500 R/hr at 1 meter or unintended exposures greater than 100 millirem total effective dose equivalent, 5 rem shallow dose equivalent (SDE), or 1.5 rem lens dose equivalent.The inspectors reviewed problem reports since the last inspection which involved potentialradiation worker or radiation protection personnel errors to determine if there was an observable pattern traceable to a similar cause. The review included an evaluation of corrective actions, as appropriate. (See Section 4OA2.6)
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified. 2OS2ALARA Planning and Controls (71121.02 - 5 Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors conducted the following activities to determine if Exelon was properlyimplementing operational, engineering, and administrative controls to maintain personnel exposure as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA). Implementation of these controls was reviewed against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable industry standards, and applicable station procedures. Inspection PlanningThe inspectors reviewed station collective dose history, current exposure trends, andongoing and planned activities to assess current performance and exposure challenges.
The inspectors determined the plant's current 3-year rolling average collective exposure and determined the site specific trends in collective exposures (using NUREG-0713 and plant historical data).
11EnclosureThe inspectors reviewed planning and preparation for the Unit 3 maintenance outage. The inspectors evaluated interfaces between various station departments from an ALARA planning perspective. The inspectors evaluated the status of radiation protection shielding requests. The inspectors reviewed ALARA plans for work activities likely to result in the highest personnel collective exposures and reviewed the planning and preparation for those work activities to determine if ALARA requirements were integrated into work procedure and radiation work permit documents. The work activities selectively reviewed were: reactor coolant re-circulation pump work, torus inspection (diving activities), under vessel work/control rod drive change-out, in-service inspection, scaffolding activities, refueling activities, and various valve work activities. The inspectors reviewed the Unit 2 2006 Refueling Outage Report. The inspectors reviewed and discussed various Station ALARA Committee meeting minutes (2007) and reviewed the Peach Bottom Station 2007-2012 Exposure Reduction Plan.Verification of Dose Estimates and Exposure Tracking Systems The inspectors reviewed the assumptions and basis for current annual collective exposureestimates. The inspectors reviewed the exposure tracking system to evaluate the level of detail, and exposure report timeliness. Source-Term Reduction and ControlThe inspectors selectively reviewed and discussed Exelon's understanding of the plantsource-term, including knowledge of input mechanisms to reduce the source term; and the source-term control strategy in place. The inspectors reviewed and discussed work planning contingencies for changes in source term or radiation dose rates. The inspectors discussed the licensee's program for identification and control of areas of localized dose rates ("hot spots"). The inspectors reviewed station dose rates used for trending. Problem Identification and ResolutionsThe inspectors selectively reviewed applicable self-assessments and audits related to theALARA program. (See Section 4OA2.6)
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified. 2OS3Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation and Protective Equipment (71121.03 - 3 Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed selected activities, and associated documentation, in the belowlisted areas. The evaluation of Exelon's performance in these areas was against criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, applicable TSs, and applicable station procedures.Calibration, Operability, Alarm Setpoint 12EnclosureThe inspectors selectively reviewed calibration of the following instrumentation used forradiological assessment and used for ongoing work activities: *Area Radiation Monitor Channels (Criticality Monitors), Reactor Building RefuelFloor Monitors/Fuel Pool (Unit 3 Refueling Floor Areas);*Alpha Counter (SAC-4), 78486, 79099;

b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.Cornerstone: Public Radiation Safety2PS1Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems(71122.01 - 1 Sample)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selectively reviewed the calibration of flow rate instrumentation for thestation plant vents and main stack. The review was against criteria contained in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.2PS3Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) (71122.03 - 11 Samples).1Review of the Implementation of Exelon's REMP
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the implementation of Exelon's REMP. The review was againstapplicable criteria specified in TSs, station procedures, the REMP program requirements outlined in the ODCM, and applicable NRC Guidance.
13EnclosureInspection Planning and In-Office InspectionThe inspectors reviewed the 2005 and 2006 Annual Environmental Monitoring Reportsand licensee assessment results to verify that the REMP was implemented as required by TS and the ODCM. The inspectors reviewed the reports for changes to the ODCM with respect to environmental monitoring, commitments in terms of sampling locations, monitoring and measurement frequencies, land use census, inter-laboratory comparison program, and analysis of data. The inspectors also reviewed the UFSAR results for information regarding the environmental monitoring program and meteorological monitoring instrumentation.The inspectors reviewed licensee self-assessments, audits, licensee event reports, andinter-laboratory comparison program results. (See Section 40A2.6)Onsite InspectionThe inspectors observed 10 thermoluminescence dosimeter (TLD) monitoring stations todetermine whether they are located as described in the ODCM and to determine the equipment material condition. The inspectors observed collection of air particulate and iodine samples at five locations. The inspectors observed collection of a composite drinking water sample at one location. The inspectors observed ongoing surface water sampling at the station discharge. The inspectors verified that the environmental sampling was representative of the release pathways as specified in the ODCM and that sampling techniques were in accordance with applicable procedures. The inspectors selectively reviewed calibration testing records for the meteorologicaltower (tower 2) to verify that meteorological instruments were operable, calibrated, and maintained in accordance with guidance contained in the UFSAR, NRC Safety Guide 23, and licensee procedures. The inspectors reviewed events documented in the Annual Environmental MonitoringReport, as applicable, which involved a missed sample, inoperable sampler, lost TLD, or anomalous measurement for the cause and corrective actions. The inspectors conducted a review of the Exelon's assessment of positive sample results(i.e., licensed radioactive material detected above the lower limits of detection), as applicable. The inspectors reviewed, as applicable, the associated dose calculations and radioactive effluent release data that was the likely source of the released material. The inspectors reviewed any significant changes made by Exelon to the ODCM as theresult of changes to the land census (2005, 2006) or sampler station modifications since the last inspection. The inspectors reviewed technical justifications for any changed sampling locations. The inspectors evaluated the reviews, as applicable, required to ensure that the changes did not affect the ability to monitor the impacts of radioactive effluent releases on the environment.The inspectors reviewed the calibration and maintenance records for selected airsamplers, composite water samplers, and thermoluminescent dosimeters.The inspectors reviewed the results of Exelon's vendor laboratory to analyze the REMPsamples and reviewed the results of the vendor's quality control program, including the inter-laboratory comparison program, to verify the adequacy of the vendor's program.
14EnclosureThe inspectors reviewed audits and technical evaluations performed on the vendor'sprogram. The inspectors reviewed the results of the inter-laboratory comparison program to verify the adequacy of environmental sample analyses performed and the quality control evaluation of the inter-laboratory comparison program and the corrective actions for any deficiencies. Where applicable, the inspectors reviewed determination of any bias to the data and the overall effect on the REMP. The inspectors reviewed quality assurance audit results of the program to determine whether Exelon met applicable the TS/ODCM requirements. Unrestricted Release of Material from the Radiologically Controlled Area (RCA)The inspectors selectively observed locations where Exelon monitors potentiallycontaminated material leaving the RCA, and inspected the methods used for control, survey, and release from these areas. The inspectors observed the performance of personnel surveying and releasing material for unrestricted use to verify that the work was performed in accordance with plant procedures.The inspectors verified that the radiation monitoring instrumentation was appropriate forthe radiation types present and was calibrated with appropriate radiation sources. The inspectors reviewed Exelon's criteria for the survey and release of potentially contaminated material and verified that there was guidance on how to respond to an alarm which indicated the presence of licensed radioactive material.The inspectors reviewed Exelon's equipment to ensure the radiation detection sensitivitieswere consistent with the NRC guidance for surface contamination and for volumetrically contaminated material. The inspectors discussed Exelon's capabilities to detect radionuclides that decay via electron capture. The inspectors reviewed procedures and records to verify that the radiation detection instrumentation was used at its typical sensitivity level based on appropriate counting parameters (i.e., counting times and background radiation levels). The inspectors verified that Exelon had not established a release limit by altering the instruments typical sensitivity through methods such as raising the energy discriminator level or locating the instrument in a high radiation background area. Identification and Resolution of ProblemsThe inspectors reviewed Exelon event reports, special reports, audits, and self-assessments, as applicable, related to the REMP, since the previous inspection to determine if identified problems are entered into the CAP for resolution commensurate with their importance to safety and risk. The inspectors also reviewed ARs to evaluate Exelon's threshold for identifying, evaluating, and resolving problems relating to occupational radiation safety. The review included a check of possible repetitive issuessuch as radiation worker or radiation protection technician errors. The following documents were reviewed:*Program Area Audit - NOSA-PEA-06-04(AR476157476157, May 3, 2006, Chemistry,Radwaste, Effluent and Environmental Program;*Check-in Assessment - (609506); and

15EnclosureThis review was against the criteria contained in 10 CFR 20, TSs, and the stationprocedures.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2 Review of Meteorological Data
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selectively reviewed the meteorological data associated with the variousmeteorological towers at the station and discussed the data with cognizant licensee personnel. The inspectors also reviewed and discussed determination of ambient environmental radiation doses using thermoluminescent dosimetry. The review was against criteria contained in the ODCM.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.4.OTHER ACTIVITIES4OA1Performance Indicator (PI) Verification (71151 - 10 Samples)Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed a sample of the PBAPS's submittals for the PIs listed below toverify the accuracy of the data reported. The PI definitions and the guidance contained in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Indicator Guideline,"
Revision 4, and Exelon procedure LS-AA-2200, "Mitigating System Performance Index Data Acquisition and Reporting," were used to verify that procedure and reporting requirements were met. The inspectors reviewed raw PI data collected since January 2007 and compared graphical representations from the most recent PI report to the raw data to verify the data was included in the report. The inspectors also examined a selected sample of operations logs, licensee event reports, CAP records and procedures to verify the PI data was appropriately captured for inclusion into the PI report and the individual PIs were correctly calculated. *High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI), Unit 2 and Unit 3;*Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC), Unit 2 and Unit 3;
- EDGs, Unit 2 and Unit 3;
- RHR System, Unit 2 and Unit 3; and
- Emergency Service Water System, Unit 2 and Unit 3.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
16Enclosure4OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems (PI&R) (71152 - 4 Annual Samples).1Torus Inspection
a. Inspection Scope
Based on identification of prior problems with the Unit 2 torus during an NRC InserviceInspection Program inspection and resident inspector input, the inspectors selected condition reports IR 500730, 500728, 500747, 500533, 500534, 500617, 500732, and 500751 as a PI&R sample for a detailed follow-up review. The prior inspection had identified weaknesses in the torus program, such as the follow-up on repaired areas, sample size, sample distribution, pit tracking, repair re-examination, and root cause.
The inspectors assessed Exelon's PI&R program and specific response to the issues raised by the prior NRC inspection. The inspectors reviewed the corrective actions taken in response to the NRC concerns to determine if appropriate cause analyses, extent of condition reviews, and prioritization was undertaken. The inspectors reviewed the timeliness of Exelon's corrective actions to determine whether Exelon was appropriately identifying, characterizing, and correcting problems associated with this issue. This review was undertaken in order to understand if the ultimate corrective action of recoating the torus was being planned in a timely fashion.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified. The inspectors determined that Exelon'soverall response to the issue was timely. The inspectors noted that Exelon's evaluation and follow-up corrective actions, as documented, were, in some cases, not completely responsive to the identified concern. Program owners and responsible engineering staff at PBAPS, however, clearly understood the concern and had implemented or were planning programmatic adjustments to accommodate the concerns. "Issue Report 670222, "LTA [Less-Than-Adequate] Documentation to Previously Identified NRC Questions," was written by Peach Bottom to capture this issue and enter it into their corrective action program.".2Inspection of Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) Practices and Corrective Actions Taken toExclude Foreign Material from Entering Plant Systems
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected four IRs initiated in 2R16 (2006) for detailed review (IRs 533285,533343, 534435 and 534509). The IRs were associated with the introduction of foreign materials into SSCs which could impact nuclear safety and risk. The IRs were reviewed to ensure that the full extent of the FME issues were identified, appropriate evaluations were performed, root and contributing causes were identified, and appropriate corrective actions were specified and prioritized. The inspectors reviewed a number of action requests (ARs) associated with the disposition of each IR to determine if the actions taken or planned would restore a condition adverse to quality to an acceptable condition or capability. The inspectors reviewed the FME program, refuel floor FME plans, FME training materials and lesson plans, and the CAP. The inspectors interviewed personnel responsible for implementation of the FME program. The inspectors also conducted a plant walkdown of accessible areas of Unit 2, including the refuel floor where 17Enclosurenew fuel was being receipt inspected and placed into the fuel pool. The inspectorsevaluated the refuel floor FME area, examined the personnel log, tool and parts log, and observed the maintenance and control of the physical boundary of the area which isdesignated as a FME Area 1 (highest level of control).
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified associated with the review of the selected IRsand action assignments. However, the inspectors noted that there had been a previous loss of foreign material integrity on the refuel floor during refuel outages in 2003 (Unit 3)and 2004 (Unit 2). In the previous outages, the loss of foreign material occurred from the same location (reactor cavity work platform) and was found in the reactor vessel. The foreign material was removed without identified damage to reactor structural internals, fuel, connecting systems, or other vital components during those outages. The inspectors noted that a safety-related component was replaced ('D' RHR pump impeller) due to identified damage caused by the loss of a calibration standard during the Unit 2 refuel outage 2R16 (2006). The inspectors discussed this incident and previous instances with PBAPS and concluded that the same vendor was involved in the performance of the in-vessel visual inspection. This contractor was responsible for the work location and the control of various cameras, calibration standards, lanyard material, and other devices used to secure tools and loose equipment in use on the platform. The inspectors reviewed the corrective action(s) specified to enhance safety andperformance of personnel responsible for implementation of the FME program to preclude similar occurrences of material loss in areas where systems and components are exposed and the risk of tool and material loss is high. The corrective actions appear to have been marginally successful, in that, there was loss of foreign material from the reactor cavity work platform during the last refueling outage (P3R16) and the overall number of FME events decreased. However, this is still a focus area for the plant because there was a significant event involving FME that caused damage to a turbine bearing and a slight extension to the refueling outage..3Corrective Actions for the RCIC System Drain Line Crack/Leak of October 2006 Near theTorus Shell
a. Inspection Scope
This inspection focused on the PI&R and corrective action aspects of the RCIC systemdrain line leak that occurred in October 2006, near location of the RCIC discharge location at the torus.The inspectors reviewed the applicable AR's that described the leak condition, causeanalysis, and provided for assignments for completion of corrective and preventive actions. The AR's reviewed included:*AR 541265, Leak in Pipe Downstream, MO-2-23-031;*AR 541936, ANII Review of Work Done Under Issue 541265; and
- AR 554818, Safety-Related Pipe not Classed per 10 CFR 50.55(a). To see the location of the initial leak, the as-repaired configuration, and to verify the extent-of-condition effectiveness, the inspectors conducted walkdowns in the Unit 2 torus room and of portions of the Unit 2 and Unit 3 HPCI and RCIC systems. The inspectors 18Enclosureinterviewed the responsible engineering and American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME) Code inspection personnel to verify the adequacy of corrective actions. The inspection scope included review of the process for AR tracking, assignment tracking and control of the adequacy of task completion, the classification of safety-related piping, pipe flow rate evaluation scope, and the basis for confirmation that Unit 3 was not affected by a similar problem.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified..4 PECO/Exelon Procedures and Backlogged Procedural Changes
a. Inspection Scope
In order to determine if the backlog of procedure change requests negatively impactedplant safety, the inspectors reviewed Peach Bottom's CAP documents associated with requested procedure updates and enhancements that were backlogged in the licensee's procedure change tracking databases. The inspectors also reviewed whether conflicts existed that could have a detrimental effect on procedure completion in cases where there was an active PECO procedure and an Exelon controlling document. In December 2006, an initiative (IR 569168) to evaluate the number and potential effects of conflicting PECO and Exelon documents was put in place by the licensee.A sample of procedure modifications and enhancements was reviewed by the inspectorsto determine the impact the change would have on the procedure, and whether the amount of time it took the licensee to evaluate and implement the change was appropriate based on its impact. The inspectors also interviewed station personnel and searched the corrective action program documents to determine if any procedural conflicts resulted in any negative impact on plant operation.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified. Interviews with station personnel and review ofIR's indicated that no significant procedural conflicts existed between active PECO procedures and Exelon procedures. Of the sample that the inspectors performed on the existing items in the backlog of procedural updates, the majority were enhancements to the procedure intended to improve human factors or correct editorial errors. No examples were identified where a suggested procedure change involved critical steps of the procedure. Interviews with station personnel and review of backlogged procedure revisions indicated that appropriate prioritization methods were used based on the expected effect of the revision and when the procedure would be performed next.During the time of the inspection, a backlog of 1,558 requested procedure revisionsexisted station-wide. Approximately 1,400 of these were in operations and maintenance.
In general, Peach Bottom has established a plan to address new procedure change requests and reduce the backlog. Based on interviews with Peach Bottom personnel responsible for making the procedure changes, the inspectors acknowledged that additional resources would be required to effect a large reduction in the number of backlogged procedure change requests that would not be commensurate with the significance of the procedural enhancements. However, the inspectors noted a minor example of a procedure change request being inappropriately cancelled, with resources 19Enclosurebeing a contributing factor in IR 663248.
.5 Routine Review of Items Entered Into the CAP
a. Inspection Scope
As required by Inspection Procedure (IP) 71152, "Identification and Resolution ofProblems," and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures, human performance issues or program issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed routine screening of issues entered into PBAPS's CAP. This review was accomplished by selectively reviewing copies of IRs and accessing PBAPS's computerized database.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.4OA3Event Followup (71153 - 1 Sample)
.1 Alert Declared Due to Carbon Dioxide Leak from a Portable Fire Extinguisher in the DieselGenerator Building
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed selected applicable plant records, correction action documentsand approved procedures while evaluating the performance of PBAPS personnel in response to a non-routine evolution. The inspectors assessed personnel performance to determine what occurred and how the operators responded, and to determine if plant personnel's response was in accordance with plant procedures and training. The review also included the inspectors' observations in the main control room and the technical support center during the event. The following non-routine evolution was observed and reviewed:At 3:25 p.m. on August 8, 2007, plant personnel notified the main control room that theseal on a CO2 extinguisher in the E-3 EDG room had failed and the CO2 was rapidly discharging into the room. The concentrations of carbon dioxide and oxygen were not known and the room was evacuated. At 3:36 p.m., using EP-AA-1007, "Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station," the shift manager declared an Alert based on emergency action level (EAL) HA7, "Release of Toxic of Flammable Gases." State and Local Agencies notifications were completed at 3:46 p.m.
The emergency response facilities were staffed and activiated by 4:24 p.m. The event was terminated at 4:53 p.m. in accordance with plant procedures after the E-3 EDG room was ventilated and verified to be safe for access. PBAPS personnel determined that the E-3 EDG was unaffected by the event and remained available if needed. The inspectors verified that this event was placed into the CAP (IR 658607). Theinspectors verified that this issue captured the results of a subsequent review that determined that the emergency declaration was not required since an atmosphere immediately dangerous to life and health could not have been created by this equipment failure. The inspectors reviewed the root cause report (RCR) for this event (IR 658607-09) which documented that the basis for EAL HA7 was confusing. The inspectors also verified that insufficient training on changes to the HA7 basis were documented as a contributing cause.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.4OA6Meetings, Including ExitExit Meeting SummaryOn October 19, 2007, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. J. Grimes and other PBAPS staff, who acknowledged the findings. The inspectors asked the licensee whether any of the material examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary. No proprietary information was identified. ATTACHMENT:
