SUMMARY

Inspection Report (IR) 05000272/2015003, 05000311/2015003; 07/01/2015 09/30/2015; Salem Nuclear Generating Station Units 1 and 2; Maintenance Effectiveness; Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments; Surveillance Testing. This report covered a three-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced inspections performed by regional inspectors. The inspectors identified one NRC-identified and two self-revealing findings of very low safety significance (Green), all of which were non-cited violations (NCVs). The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (i.e., greater than Green, or Green, White, Yellow, Red) and determined using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) -cutting aspects -2operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-or

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

A self-a temperature control switch for the auxiliary feedwater (AFW) pump area room cooler that was not suitable for its application. Specifically, installation of a temperature control switch with an inadequate reset deadband resulted in excessive cycling of the room cooler, failure of its associated turbine-driven AFW (TDAFW) pump enclosure inlet damper to fully open, and subsequent inoperability of the TDAFW pump. PSEG entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP), performed immediate repairs to the failed damper, performed an apparent cause evaluation (ACE), and created corrective actions to replace the temperature switches on both units. This issue was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System cornerstone, and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, Exhibit 2, and screened to

Green.

Specifically, this finding was a design deficiency whereby the TDAFW pump did not maintain operability; however, this finding did not represent a loss of system or function, and TDAFW did not exceed its Technical Specification (TS) allowed outage time. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Resolution, because PSEG did not take effective corrective actions to address issues in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, PSEG did not complete corrective actions in a timely manner to resolve and correct excessive damper cycling, as identified in 2013; did not ensure that work order operation deferrals to address excessive cycling were minimized; and did not address the fundamental cause of excessive damper cycling while an interim corrective action was established to minimize excessive damper cycling. [P.3] (Section 1R12)

Green.

The inspectors identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, ely implement procedure OP-AA-108-Specifically, PSEG did not properly evaluate and document an adequate basis for operability of an AFW flow rate indicator prior to restoring it to an operable status. PSEG re-declared the channel inoperable, vented air from the transmitter, took satisfactory voltage readings prior to declaring the channel operable, and entered this issue in their CAP. The issue was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, where it screened to Green since it did not affect the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system, and component (SSC), did not represent a loss of system and/or function, and did not represent an actual loss of at least a single train for greater than its technical specification (TS) allowed outage time. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Conservative Bias, in that licensee staff use decision making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, PSEG did not take a conservative approach to decision making, particularly when information was incomplete and conditions were unusual. Further, PSEG management did not take timely action to address degraded conditions commensurate with their safety significance. [H.14] (Section 1R15)

Green.

A self- was identified when the 13 chiller tripped on freeze protection due to insufficient refrigerant. Specifically, timely corrective actions were not implemented in response to repetitive Freon leaks that ultimately rendered the 13 chiller inoperable. In response, PSEG initiated a prompt investigation, conducted troubleshooting and repairs, entered the issue in their CAP, and completed an ACE. The issue was determined to be more than minor since it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System cornerstone and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, Exhibit 2, and screened to Green since it was not a qualification or design deficiency, did not represent a loss of system or function, and did not exceed its TS allowed outage time. The issue was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in Human Performance, Design Margins, in that a licensee organization operates and maintains equipment within design margins, and places special attention on maintaining safety related equipment. Specifically, PSEG did not minimize a long-standing equipment issue nor carefully maintain its operating margin. [H.6] (Section 1R22)5

REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status Unit 1 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. The unit remained at or near 100 percent power for the remainder of the inspection period. On July 11, PSEG declared an Unusual Event, due to actuation of CO2 fire protection suppression in the Unit 1 Emergency Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Transfer pump room. The Unit remained at full power during the event. On July 26, 2015, power was reduced to 25 percent power in support of reactor coolant loop flow transmitter replacement. Power was returned to 100 percent the following day. The unit remained at or near 100 percent power for the remainder of the inspection period. Unit 2 began the inspection period at 100 percent power. On July 30, power was reduced to 70 percent in response to a blown fuse that resulted in a loss of three circulating water pumps. Full power was reached the following day. The reactor tripped on August 5 due to a loss of the 2H 4 kilovolt (kV) bus and its associated reactor coolant pump (RCP). A reactor startup was commenced on August 8 and full power was reached on August 14. The unit remained at or near 100 percent power for the remainder of the inspection period.

1R12 Maintenance Effectiveness

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed the samples listed below to assess the effectiveness of maintenance activities on structure, system, and component performance and reliability. The inspectors reviewed system health reports, CAP documents, maintenance work orders, and maintenance rule (MR) basis documents to ensure that PSEG was identifying and properly evaluating performance problems within the scope of the MR. For each sample selected, the inspectors verified that the structure, system, or component was properly scoped into the MR in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65 and verified that the (a)(2) performance criteria established by PSEG staff was reasonable. As applicable, for structures, systems, and components classified as (a)(1), the inspectors assessed the adequacy of goals and corrective actions to return these structures, systems, and components to (a)(2). Additionally, the inspectors ensured that PSEG staff was identifying and addressing common cause failures that occurred within and across MR system boundaries.

Unit 1, TDAFW enclosure room cooler inlet damper cycling on September 11 Unit 2, Circulating water bus system following undervoltage (UV) trip on July 31

b. Findings

Introduction.

A self-revealing, Green NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, a temperature control switch for the AFW pump area room cooler that was not suitable for its application. Specifically, the temperature control switch had an inadequate reset deadband that resulted in excessive cycling of the room cooler, failure of its associated turbine-driven AFW (TDAFW) pump enclosure inlet damper to fully open, and subsequent inoperability of the TDAFW pump.

Description.

On March 26, 2015, a PSEG nuclear equipment operator (NEO) observed the Unit 1 TDAFW pump enclosure to be warm and humid. Subsequently, the NEO observed the inlet damper to the pump enclosure, 1ABS20, to be approximately 15% open with the AFW pump area room cooler in service. The AFW pump area room cooler is designed to provide cooling to the TDAFW pump enclosure through a series of automatic air-operated dampers: 1ABS2, 1ABS20 and 1ABS4. The 1ABS2 and 1ABS20 are normally closed dampers that are designed to fully open when the AFW pump area room cooler is in service. Per S1.OP-SO.SW-OperabiliRevision 39, Attachment 2, step 2.2, if the AFW room cooler is inoperable, then the TDAFW pump must be declared inoperable. On March 26, 2015, upon discovery of the 1ABS20 in a partially open condition with the AFW pump area room cooler in service, PSEG declared the TDAFW pump inoperable and entered Technical Specification 3.7.1.2.b, action a, which requires restoring the TDAFW pump to Operable within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />, or be in Mode 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and Mode 4 within the following 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. PSEG entered the issue into their CAP via notification 20682942. During an inspection of the 1ABS20 damper and its associated diaphragm-modulated operator (DMOP), PSEG maintenance technicians found an air leak blowing on the shaft of the damper actuator. The diaphragm was removed and visible punctures were discovered on the diaphragm. The inspectors observed maintenance activities in the field and independently verified the as-found conditions of the diaphragm. Maintenance technicians replaced the diaphragm and performed a satisfactory post-maintenance test on the 1ABS20, on March 26, 2015. PSEG performed an apparent cause analysis (ACE) under 70175166 on the 1ABS20 verification of design inputs resulted in the incorrect selection of temperature control the DCP used an incorrect design input of 3oF for the temperature reset deadband (difference between trip and reset) without verifying the design basis deadband of 10oF contained in the PSEG instrument data card (ICD) associated with the AFW pump area room cooler temperature switch. The inspectors noted the DCP was created as an action to resolve a temperature switch design deficiency identified in ACE 70071998, which was performed in response to a 2007 failure of damper 1ABS20 that was also attributed to excessive cycling. The inspectors concluded that the apparent cause determination in the 2015 ACE was appropriate, because the inspectors verified that the DCP used an incorrect design input during selection of the temperature switches. Additionally, the inspectors concluded that the DCP did not effectively resolve the temperature switch design deficiency identified by PSEG in the 2007 ACE.

Following installation of the DCP in 2012, the inspectors identified an additional example where PSEG did not effectively resolve an issue with the TDAFW pump room cooler temperature switch in a timely manner. On October 2, 2013, the inspectors identified excessive cycling of the TDAFW pump room cooler and associated dampers, which PSEG captured under notification 20623371. The inspectors noted that PSEG did implement an interim corrective action to run the room cooler in manual mode, with river temperatures above 60oF, to prevent cycling the dampers during warmer. On October 15, 2013, PSEG created order 70159450, operation 10, for engineering to review the temperature switch design with a due date of November 13, 2013. The inspectors noted that PSEG engineering extended the due date seven times prior to the 1ABS20 damper failure on March 26, 2015. Therefore, the inspectors concluded that ineffective and untimely resolution of the AFW pump room cooler temperature switch issue was a contributing factor that lead to excessive damper cycling and eventual failure.

Analysis.

correct, and should have been prevented, and was therefore a performance deficiency. This issue was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System cornerstone, and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, PSEG replaced the TDAFW room cooler temperature control switch without verifying the appropriate temperature deadband design basis input. This led to excessive cycling, and subsequent failure, of the room cooler inlet damper, which rendered the TDAFW pump inoperable. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, Exhibit 2, and screened to Green. Specifically, this finding was a design deficiency whereby the TDAFW pump did not maintain operability; however, this finding did not represent a loss of system or function, and TDAFW did not exceed its TS allowed outage time. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Resolution, because PSEG did not take effective corrective actions to address issues in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, PSEG did not complete corrective actions in a timely manner to resolve and correct excessive damper cycling, as identified in 2013, did not ensure that work order operation deferrals to address excessive cycling were minimized, and did not address the fundamental cause of excessive damper cycling while an interim corrective action was established to minimize excessive damper cycling. [P.3]

Enforcement.

s shall be established for the selection and review for suitability of application of materials, parts, equipment and process that are essential to the safety-related functions of the Contrary to the above, PSEG did not establish measures for the selection and review for suitability of application of equipment that was essential to the safety-related function of the TDAFW pump. Specifically, PSEG installed a TDAFW pump room cooler temperature switch, on July 25, 2012, with a temperature reset deadband that was not reviewed for suitability of application in the TDAFW pump enclosure space. Consequently, the room cooler inlet damper cycled excessively until it failed to fully open on March 26, 2015, which resulted in TDAFW pump inoperability. PSEG entered this this issue into their CAP under notification 20682942, performed immediate repairs to the failed damper, performed an ACE, and created corrective actions to replace the temperature switches on both units. Because this violation was of very low safety significance (Green) and was entered CAP, it is being treated as an NCV in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

1R13 Maintenance Risk Assessments and Emergent Work Control

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed station evaluation and management of plant risk for the maintenance and emergent work activities listed below to verify that PSEG performed the appropriate risk assessments prior to removing equipment for work. The inspectors selected these activities based on potential risk significance relative to the reactor safety cornerstones. As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified that PSEG personnel performed risk assessments as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) and that the assessments were accurate and complete. When PSEG performed emergent work, the inspectors verified that operations personnel promptly assessed and managed plant risk. The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance work and discussed the results of rify plant conditions were consistent with the risk assessment. The inspectors also reviewed the TS requirements and inspected portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk analysis assumptions were valid and applicable requirements were met.

Unit 1, Planned yellow risk condition for SFP HX eddy current testing on July 7 Unit 1, Unplanned yellow risk condition for 1B emergency diesel generator (EDG) output breaker failure to close on September 2 Unit 2, 21 chiller trip on freeze protection on August 14 Unit 2, Planned yellow risk condition for alternate AFW supply while installing Fukushima modifications on August 18 Unit 2, 22 chiller removed from service for high suction pressure and low delta-temperature on September 10 Common, Planned yellow risk condition for control area ventilation damper maintenance on September 22

b. Findings

No findings were identified.

1R15 Operability Determinations and Functionality Assessments

a. Inspection Scope

The inspectors reviewed operability determinations for the following degraded or non-conforming conditions based on the risk significance of the associated components and systems:

Unit 1, 13 RCP flow channel I spiking on July 7 Unit 1, Pressurizer power-operated relief valve (PORV) control circuit indicator 10 CFR 21 on September 2 Unit 2, 2A Safeguards Equipment Control trouble alarm on August 5 Unit 2, Steam generator PORV isolation at power on August 11 Unit 2, 23 and 24 AFW flow rate indications while the pumps were secured on August 12 Unit 2, AFW discharge check valve leakby on August 18 Common, Containment fan cooling unit relay manufacturing defect on July 9 The inspectors evaluated the technical adequacy of the operability determinations to assess whether TS operability was properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and design criteria in the appropriate sections of the systems were operable. The inspectors confirmed, where appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations. Where compensatory measures were required to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would function as intended and were properly controlled by PSEG.

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspectors identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, implement procedure OP-AA-108-an adequate basis for operability of an AFW flow rate indicator prior to restoring it to an operable status.

Description.

On August 8, 2015, a Unit 2 reactor startup was in progress. When the 22 steam generator (SG) feedwater pump was available, operators transferred feed to the SGs from AFW to main feedwater. Subsequently, the operators stopped the 21 and 22 AFW pumps in preparation for placing the system into the standby alignment. Concurrently, the 24 AFW flow rate meter indicated 2.2x10E4 lbm/hr with the AFW system out of service and the associated SG level control valve, 24AF21, closed. Operators declared the 24 AFW flow rate indicator inoperable, entered the issue in their CAP as notification 20699200, and entered TS 3.3.3.7 action 4, which states that with only one AFW flow rate indication inoperable, operations may proceed if an operable SG wide range level channel is available as an alternate means of indication for the SG with an inoperable AFW flow rate channel. Three hours later, the flow rate indication unexpectedly returned to 0.0 lbm/hr with no work performed and remained at 0.0 lbm/hr for 3.5 days. While reviewing control room logs on August 12, 2015, in accordance with daily plant status activities, the inspectors noticed that the 24 AFW flow rate indicator had been declared operable the previous evening. The logs stated that the indicator was declared operable following satisfactory channel checks and the TS was exited. During a subsequent tour of the control room, the inspectors questioned operators on what work had been performed to return the instrument to an operable condition, what prevented the instrument from repeating the condition during a transient or downpower, and, ultimately, what was PSEG's basis for operability. Shortly thereafter, operators declared the 24 AFW flow rate indicator inoperable from the time of the original inoperability on August 8, 2015 and entered this in their CAP as notification 20699415. Four minutes later, operators identified the 23 AFW flow rate indication was reading erratically between 0 and 0.7x10E4 lbm/hr with AFW secured and its SG level control valve, 23AF21, closed. Operators declared the 23 AFW flow rate indicator inoperable, entered this into their CAP as notification 20699402, and entered TS 3.3.3.7 actions 4 and 6, which required PSEG to restore an inoperable channel to operable status within 7 days, or be in hot shutdown within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. As corrective maintenance, PSEG technicians vented the 24 AFW flow rate indicator and discovered the presence of air in the system. Subsequent instrument voltage readings were satisfactory and the channel was returned to an operable status. PSEG also performed a sensor calibration and a channel calibration to resolve the 23 AFW flow rate indicator issue. OP-AA-108-documented in sufficient detail to allow an individual knowledgeable in the technical discipline associated with the condition to understand the basis for the determination. Adequate documentation is necessary to establish a basis to allow for subsequent document operability determination results on the notification in accordance with the of Operability and the basis for operability need to be documented once the declaration of immediate operability inspectors determined that PSEG had not documented an adequate basis for a reasonable expectation of operability.

Analysis.

The inspectors determined that the inadequate implementation of procedure OP-AA-108-correct and should have been prevented. The issue was more than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the instrument was incorrectly declared operable and PSEG had not followed procedures when evaluating and documenting operability.

The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, Exhibit 2, where it screened to Green since it did not affect the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC, did not represent a loss of system and/or function, and did not represent an actual loss of at least a single train for greater than its TS allowed outage time. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Conservative Bias, in that licensee staff use decision making-practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable. Specifically, PSEG did not take a conservative approach to decision making, particularly when information was incomplete and conditions were unusual. Further, PSEG management did not take timely action to address degraded conditions commensurate with their safety significance. [H.14] Enforcementactivities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawi-AA-108-115 requires the basis for operability to be documented once the declaration of immediate operability is made. Contrary to properly evaluate and document an adequate basis for operability of the 24 AFW flow rate indicator, which resulted in an incorrect operability assessment. In response, on August 12, 2015, PSEG re-declared the channel inoperable, vented air from the transmitter, took satisfactory voltage readings prior to declaring the channel operable, and entered this issue in their CAP (20699415). Because this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) and PSEG entered this into their CAP, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

b. Findings

Introduction.

A self-revealing, Green NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, insufficient refrigerant. Specifically, timely corrective actions were not implemented in response to repetitive Freon leaks that ultimately rendered the 13 chiller inoperable.

Description.

On April 16, 2015, while performing post-maintenance activities to restore the 12 chiller to an operable status, the 13 chiller tripped on freeze protection resulting in an unplanned 72-hour Limiting Condition of Operation (LCO) via TS 3.7.10.a due to two inoperable chillers. The 12 chiller was returned to an operable status approximately seven hours later that changed the LCO to a 14-day action statement. In response, PSEG initiated a prompt investigation, conducted troubleshooting and repairs, entered the issue in their CAP (notifications 20685625 and 20686879), and completed an ACE. Troubleshooting determined there had been a large Freon leak on the chiller condenser relief valve, 13CH417, and maintenance staff replaced the valve. When PSEG evacuated the machine, there were 50 pounds of refrigerant remaining versus an expected 130 pounds. The 13 chiller was returned to an operable status on April 20, 2015. In January 2008, under notification 20350594, a request was made to identify an able replacement, concluded that while an identified replacement had a similar design and In September 2011, the 13CH417 leaked by causing 13 chiller inoperability. This was documented in notifications 20525822 and 20527152 with an associated ACE completed that normal chiller pressure is 210 psig. In the case of the 2011 failure, the identified leak started at 198 psig and became a mild leak at 240 psig. When the chiller starts from a warm condition, a peak pressure of 220 psig is reached and when starting from ambient temperature, a peak pressure of 235 psig is reached based on testing. In the small leaks at normal operating pressure.

g from notification 20350594 and ACE 70128879 that would add a rupture disk upstream of the relief valve to eliminate refrigerant leakage. PSEG added this item to their long term asset management program as S12-0002, which categorized the issue as chronic. In August 2012, work order 60103894 replaced the 13CH417 again. The work order On March 9, 2015, under work order 30278563, a periodic leak check was performed on the 13 chiller. Identified leaks included the 13CH417 and notification 20681075 was written to document those leaks discovered. This notification was allocated to corrective maintenance work order 60116599 that was completed during the following nine days and included refrigerant leak repairs and refrigerant replacement. Despite identified 13CH417 leakage being allocated to the associated work order, there was no documentation that the leak was addressed nor was the relief valve replaced. The 13 chiller became inoperable the following month. From December 2010 to April 2015, 13CH417 had been replaced three times.

t despite a poor reliability history, the eight-year replacement frequency for these relief valves was not reduced. Additionally, prior relief valve leaks and the need to replace the valve when a leak was identified was previously addressed in a previous ACE (70128879). Finally, PSEG had approved a design change to install rupture discs over three years prior to the current failure that had not yet been implemented. Overall, inspectors determined that chiller condenser relief valve leakage was a known, repeat condition that was adverse to quality and had not been corrected in a timely manner.

Analysis.

Failure to correct a condition adverse to quality in a timely manner was a performance deficiency. The issue was determined to be more than minor since it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating System cornerstone and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, a repeat condition adverse to quality ultimately resulted in inoperability of a chiller. The finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Attachment 4 and Appendix A, Exhibit 2, and screened to Green since it was not a qualification or design deficiency, did not represent a loss of system or function, and did not exceed its TS allowed outage time. The issue was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in Human Performance, Design Margins, in that a licensee organization operates and maintains equipment within design margins, and places special attention on maintaining safety-related equipment. Specifically, PSEG did not minimize a long-standing equipment issue nor carefully maintain its operating margin. [H.6] Enforcementmeasures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality, such as failures, Contrary to this, from January 2008 to April 2015, PSEG did not correct chronic chiller relief valve Freon leaks in a timely manner. In response, PSEG initiated a prompt investigation, conducted troubleshooting and repairs, entered the issue in their CAP (notifications 20685625 and 20686879), and completed an ACE. Because the issue was of very low safety NCV in accordance with section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

.2 Operation of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) at Operating Plants (60855 and 60855.1)

a. Inspection Scope

From July 27 through August 3, 2015, the inspectors observed and evaluated the -purpose canister (MPC) 313, the first of six canisters loaded activities related to long-term operation and monitoring of their ISFSI. The inspectors verified compliance with the Certificate of Compliance (CoC), TS, regulations, and PSEG procedures. The inspectors observed the loading of spent fuel assemblies into the MPC and the MPC/HI-TRAC being moved from the cask pit to the cask wash down area. Inspectors also observed other cask processing operations including: welding of the lid to the MPC, non-destructive examination of the lid weld, forced helium dehydration of the MPC, preparations for transport, installation of the HI-Storm lid, and transport to the ISFSI pad.

During performance of these activities, the inspectors verified that procedure use, communication, and coordination of ISFSI activities met established standards and requirements. The inspectors attended PSEG briefings to assess their ability to identify critical steps of the evolution, potential failure scenarios, and human performance tools to prevent errors. The inspectors reviewed loading, monitoring and helium leak testing reviewed the training of personnel assigned to ISFSI activities. selection for storage. The inspectors reviewed cask fuel selection packages to verify that PSEG was loading fuel in accordance with the CoC and TS. The inspectors confirmed that the PSEG did not plan to load any damaged fuel assemblies during this campaign. The inspectors reviewed radiation protection procedures and radiation work permits associated with the ISFSI loading campaign. The inspectors also reviewed the As-Low-As-Reasonably-Achievable (ALARA) goal for the cask loading to determine the were ALARA, and that project dose goals could be achieved. The inspectors reviewed radiological survey records from the current loading campaign to confirm that dose levels on the HI-TRAC surface were as expected.
