Minor Violation 71152 Follow
Minor Violation                                 71152 Follow-up of Selected Issues Minor Violation: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.65 (a)(2) allows safety system structure and components to not be monitored under 10 CFR 50 (a)(1), if an adequate demonstration that system performance is being maintained through effective maintenance is provided. In order to demonstrate this, Maintenance Rule availability performance criteria and reliability performance criteria are established and selected in accordance with Exelon procedure ER-AA-310-1003, Maintenance Rule - Performance Criteria Selection. Section 4.4, Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, Attachment 3, Process for Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, contains a process to be used in which a criteria greater than or equal to two is acceptable with documentation of past performance. Contrary to the above, two maintenance rule systems contained criteria greater than or equal to two without documentation of past performance in the Basis and Justification for Criteria Values section of the maintenance rule basis document. Thus, an adequate technical basis was not documented for a required 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) performance criteria in accordance with Exelons procedures.

Contrary to the above , two maintenance rule systems contained criteria greater than or equal to two without documentation of past performance in the "Basis and Justification for Criteria Values" section of the maintenance rule basis document.


Thus, an adequate technical basis was not documented for a required 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) performance criteria in accordance with Exelon's procedures.
Screening: The inspectors independently evaluated the deficiency for significance in accordance with the guidance in IMC 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening, issued December 31, 2017, and Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, issued August 11, 2009.


Screening:
The inspectors determined that not documenting the past performance, which was used to determine the reliability criteria, was a deficiency of minor significance since the criteria selected did not require a maintenance rule a(1) evaluation. As a result it is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs enforcement policy. This issue was captured in Exelons Corrective Action Program as AR 04126470 and 02658070.

PLANT STATUS

===The unit began the inspection period at 100 percent power and operated at full power until March 8, 2018, when the unit was shut down to replace a faulty current transformer on the main generators output line. The unit was returned to rated power on March 13, following replacement of the current transformer, and it remained at or near 100 percent power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2515, Light-Water Reactor Inspection Program - Operations Phase. The inspectors performed plant status activities described in IMC 2515 Appendix D, Plant Status and conducted routine reviews using IP 71152, Problem Identification and Resolution. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess Exelons performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Minor Violation 71152 Follow-up of Selected Issues Minor Violation: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.65 (a)(2) allows safety system structure and components to not be monitored under 10 CFR 50 (a)(1), if an adequate demonstration that system performance is being maintained through effective maintenance is provided. In order to demonstrate this, Maintenance Rule availability performance criteria and reliability performance criteria are established and selected in accordance with Exelon procedure ER-AA-310-1003, Maintenance Rule - Performance Criteria Selection. Section 4.4, Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, Attachment 3, Process for Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, contains a process to be used in which a criteria greater than or equal to two is acceptable with documentation of past performance. Contrary to the above, two maintenance rule systems contained criteria greater than or equal to two without documentation of past performance in the Basis and Justification for Criteria Values section of the maintenance rule basis document. Thus, an adequate technical basis was not documented for a required 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) performance criteria in accordance with Exelons procedures.

Screening: The inspectors independently evaluated the deficiency for significance in accordance with the guidance in IMC 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening, issued December 31, 2017, and Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, issued August 11, 2009.

The inspectors determined that not documenting the past performance, which was used to determine the reliability criteria, was a deficiency of minor significance since the criteria selected did not require a maintenance rule a(1) evaluation. As a result it is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs enforcement policy. This issue was captured in Exelons Corrective Action Program as AR 04126470 and 02658070.

Enforcement:

This failure to comply with procedure ER-AA-310-1003, Revision 5, constitutes a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs Enforcement Policy.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Minor Violation 71152 Follow-up

of Selected

Issues

Minor Violation: Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.65 (a)(2) allows

safety system structure and components to not be monitored under 10 CFR 50 (a)(1), if an

adequate demonstration that system performance is being maintained through effective

maintenance is provided. In order to demonstrate this, Maintenance Rule availability

performance criteria and reliability performance criteria are established and selected in

accordance with Exelon procedure ER-AA-310-1003, Maintenance Rule - Performance

Criteria Selection. Section 4.4, Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, Attachment 3,

Process for Selecting Reliability Performance Criteria, contains a process to be used in

which a criteria greater than or equal to two is acceptable with documentation of past

performance. Contrary to the above, two maintenance rule systems contained criteria greater

than or equal to two without documentation of past performance in the Basis and Justification

for Criteria Values section of the maintenance rule basis document. Thus, an adequate

technical basis was not documented for a required 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) performance criteria

in accordance with Exelons procedures.

Screening: The inspectors independently evaluated the deficiency for significance in

accordance with the guidance in IMC 0612, Appendix B, Issue Screening, issued

December 31, 2017, and Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, issued August 11, 2009.

The inspectors determined that not documenting the past performance, which was used to

determine the reliability criteria, was a deficiency of minor significance since the criteria

selected did not require a maintenance rule a(1) evaluation. As a result it is not subject to

enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs enforcement policy. This issue was

captured in Exelons Corrective Action Program as AR 04126470 and 02658070.

Enforcement: This failure to comply with procedure ER-AA-310-1003, Revision 5, constitutes

a minor violation that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRCs

Enforcement Policy.
