Procedures, was identified for the licensees failure to implement the established surveillance procedure for diesel generator (DG) testing. Specifically, during the scheduled surveillance run of the Division 1 DG on September 26, 2018, a reactor operator closed the Division 1 DG output breaker EH1102 at the wrong time to synchronize the generator to the grid. This resulted in the DG attempting to synchronize to the grid approximately 60 degrees out of phase and resulted in the DG being declared inoperable for inspection and repairs for seven days.

SUBJECT:

PERRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANTNRC INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000440/2018004 AND 07200069/2018001

Dear Mr. Hamilton:

On December 31, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an integrated inspection at your Perry Nuclear Power Plant. On January 10, 2019, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff.

The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.

Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC has identified two issues that were evaluated under the risk significance determination process as having very low safety significance (Green). The NRC has also determined that two violations are associated with these issues.

Because the licensee initiated condition reports to address these issues, these violations are being treated as Non-Cited Violations (NCVs), consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. These NCVs are described in the subject inspection report. Further, inspectors documented a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low safety significance in this report. The NRC is treating this violation as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; and the NRC resident inspector at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant.

This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Dariusz Szwarc, Acting Chief Branch 2 Division of Reactor Projects

Docket No. 50-440;72-069 License No. NPF-58

SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring licensees performance by conducting an integrated quarterly inspection at Perry Nuclear Power Plant in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. Findings and violations being considered in the NRCs assessment are summarized in the table below.

Licensee-identified non-cited violations are documented in report section: 71124.0

List of Findings and Violations

Failure to Perform Preventative Maintenance on Non-safety Structures, Systems and Components (SSCs)

Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems

Green NCV 05000440/2018004-01 Closed None 71111.12 The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2), Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plant, for the licensees failure to perform, monitor and assess the condition of SSCs in accordance with procedure NOP-ER-3004, FENOC Maintenance Rule Program, Revision 5. Specifically, the licensee revised the preventative maintenance schedule for the control room laundry and emergency core cooling system (ECCS) room sump switches to a frequency of as required and thus were not performing preventative maintenance to ensure that they remained capable of performing their intended function.

Failure to Follow Procedures Results in Inoperable Division 1 Diesel Generator Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems

Green NCV 05000440/2018004-02 Closed

[H.12] - Avoid Complacency 71111.22 A self-revealed Green finding and associated NCV of Technical Specification 5.4.1,

Procedures, was identified for the licensees failure to implement the established surveillance procedure for diesel generator (DG) testing. Specifically, during the scheduled surveillance run of the Division 1 DG on September 26, 2018, a reactor operator closed the Division 1 DG output breaker EH1102 at the wrong time to synchronize the generator to the grid. This resulted in the DG attempting to synchronize to the grid approximately 60 degrees out of phase and resulted in the DG being declared inoperable for inspection and repairs for seven days.

PLANT STATUS

The plant began the inspection period at rated thermal power. On October 13, 2018, reactor

power was lowered to 72 percent to perform a rod pattern adjustment. The unit was returned to

rated thermal power on October 14, 2018. On November 2, 2018, reactor power was lowered

to 59 percent to perform a rod sequence exchange. The unit was returned to rated thermal

power on November 3, 2018. On November 16, 2018, reactor power was lowered to 72 percent

to perform a rod sequence exchange. The unit was returned to rated thermal power on

November 17, 2018. The unit remained at, or near, rated thermal power with the exception that

on several occasions, power was reduced to maintain condensate demineralizer outlet

temperature and/or high condenser circulating water outlet temperatures at or below their

respective upper limits due to environmental conditions. The power reductions varied between

and 14 percent of rated thermal power and lasted from a few hours to several days. On

November 27, 2018, the unit entered into coastdown operations to refueling outage 1R17. The

plant was at 89 percent power on December 31, 2018.

On April 25, 2018, FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) / FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company

(FENOC) notified the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) that they intend to shut down

all four of their operating nuclear power plants (ADAMS Accession Number ML18115A007).

Perry Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1, is scheduled to be shut down May 31, 2021. On March 31,

2018, FES, FirstEnergy Nuclear Generation (FENGEN), and FENOC filed for bankruptcy. The

NRC continues to maintain focus on public health and safety and the protection of the

environment. This will include a continuous evaluation by inspectors to determine whether the

licensees financial condition is impacting safe operation of the plant.

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-

Evaluation of Perry Safety Condition in Light of Financial Conditions

The licensees parent company, FirstEnergy Solutions, was under bankruptcy

protection/reorganization during the inspection period. As such, NRC Region III conducted

special reviews of processes at Perry. Using the flexibilities in the baseline inspection program,

the inspectors evaluated several aspects of the licensees operations to assess whether any

identified plant performance issues could be related to the stations financial condition. The

factors reviewed included: (1) impact on regulatory-required plant staffing; (2) corrective

maintenance backlog; (3) changes to the planned maintenance schedule; (4) corrective action

program implementation; and (5) reduction in outage scope, including risk-significant

modifications. In particular, the inspectors verified that licensee personnel continued to identify

problems at an appropriate threshold and enter these problems into the corrective action

program for resolution. The inspectors also verified that the licensee continued to develop and

implement corrective actions commensurate with the safety significance of the problems

identified.

The review of processes at Perry included continuous reviews by the Resident Inspectors, as

well as the specialist-led baseline inspections completed during the inspection period which are

documented previously in this report.

71111.12

Introduction:

The inspectors identified a Green finding and associated Non-Cited Violation (NCV) of

CFR 50.65(a)(2), Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at

Nuclear Power Plant, for the failure to perform, monitor and assess the condition of SSCs in

accordance with NOP-ER-3004, FENOC Maintenance Rule Program, Revision 5.

Specifically, the licensee revised the preventative maintenance schedule for the control room

laundry and ECCS room sump switches to a frequency of as required and thus were not

performing preventative maintenance to ensure that they remained capable of performing

their intended function.

Description:

Licensee calculation JL-083, Flooding Analysis of CCB [Control Complex Building], IB

[Intermediate Building], and FHB [Fuel Handling Building] - Floor Elevation 574 [foot]-10

[inches], Section 8.6 stated, in part, that, the Control Room will be alerted to a potential

flooding condition by the Control Room Laundry sump level switches 0G61-N0510A/B. The

flooding analysis further stated in Section 8.6 that, it is conservatively assumed that the

[Service Water] system will leak for five minutes prior to the actuation of the [Control Room

Laundry] sump alarm alerting the Control Room Staff of a problem. A period of 60 minutes

after the onset of the control room alarm is assumed for the operator to identify the issue and

secure the Service Water pumps.

The control room laundry sump switches are part of maintenance rule system G60/61 -

Miscellaneous and Liquid Radwaste Sump. The maintenance rule system basis document

for system G60/61 stated, under function G61-04, that the ability of the control room laundry

sump level switches to annunciate high water level in the control complex basement for

internal flooding mitigation was a monitored function. The basis document further established

a value of less than, or equal to, two maintenance preventable functional failures per

three-year rolling average, taking in to consideration historical performance, a level of

performance expectation, the opportunities to detect failures, and significance of failures.

During an internal flooding inspection of the CCB basement, the inspectors requested the

latest control room laundry sump level switches functional check. On August 29, 2018, the

inspectors determined that the last functional check had been performed on June 11, 2003,

and that in 2003 the preventative maintenance schedule for the control room laundry sump

level switches was once every six years. The inspectors concluded that in 2008, the task had

been revised to once every eight years and in 2014 the preventative maintenance frequency

was revised to as required based upon the recommendation of the non-critical component

stratification project and the responsible system engineer. The non-critical component

stratification project was an effort that targeted preventative maintenance frequency

reductions based on non-critical classification and component performance history. The

inspectors were not provided evidence of alternate methods to ensure sump switch

functionality, such as visual examination or functional checks. Without a functional check the

shifting of the preventative maintenance frequency to as required would not reveal sump

switch failures.

The licensee determined, as part of an extent of condition review, that 25 plant level switches

credited for flooding awareness had their preventative maintenances set to as required,

which included safety-related ECCS room sump switches for the residual heat removal pump

systems, high pressure core spray system, reactor core isolation cooling system, and the low

pressure core spray system which are credited for emergency operating procedure (EOP-3)

Secondary Containment Control entry criteria. The inspectors determined these examples

further represented the same programmatic discrepancy.

Procedure NOP-ER-3004, FENOC Maintenance Rule Program, Revision 5, Section 4.6.1.1

stated that, the performance of paragraph (a)(2) SSCs will be monitored against plant level

and specific performance criteria. The inspectors discussed with the licensee that changing

the preventative maintenance frequency to as required or, in other words, run to failure

would not provide adequate opportunity to identify and correct failures prior to an internal

flooding event.

Corrective Actions: The licensee changed the preventative maintenance for all the sump

switches identified in the extent of condition from as required to a 10-year frequency.

Additionally the licensee tested sump switches that were outside the 10-year frequency to

include the control room laundry sump level switches. All sump switches tested satisfactorily.

Corrective Action Reference: CR 2018-07735, NRC ID: Sump Level Monitoring Switches

Credited for Flooding Analysis JL-083 are Not Functionally Checked on a Regular Basis.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined the licensees failure to perform, monitor

and trend the performance of preventative maintenance on the control room laundry and

ECCS room sump switches in accordance with NOP-ER-3004, FENOC Maintenance Rule

Program, Revision 5, Section 4.6.1.1, was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the

licensee revised the preventative maintenance schedule for the sump switches to a frequency

of as required and thus would not be performing preventative maintenance to ensure that

they remained capable of performing their intended function.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor

because the issue was programmatic in nature and if left uncorrected, it would have the

potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the licensees failure to

functionally test the sump switches could result in an unrecognized switch degradation and

lead to an unannounced internal flooding condition that could challenge safety-related

equipment.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using Significance

Determination Process (SDP) Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for

Findings At-Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions. The finding

screened as having very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency

affecting the qualification of mitigating SSCs, however, the SSCs maintained their

functionality.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: No cross-cutting aspect was assigned to this finding because the

performance deficiency occurred in 2014, as part of the non-critical component stratification

project, and therefore was not indicative of current licensee performance.

Enforcement:

Violation: Title 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1), requires, in part, that the holders of an operating license

shall monitor the performance or condition of SSCs within the scope of the rule as defined by

CFR 50.65(b), against licensee-established goals, in a manner sufficient to provide

reasonable assurance that such SSCs are capable of fulfilling their intended functions.

Title 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) states, in part, that monitoring as specified in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) is

not required where it has been demonstrated that the performance or condition of an SSC is

being effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance,

such that the SSC remains capable of performing its intended functions.

Contrary to the above, since 2014, the licensee failed to demonstrate that the performance or

condition of the control room laundry and ECCS sump switches were being effectively

controlled through the performance of preventative maintenance such that the SSCs

remained capable of performing their intended functions. Specifically, the licensee revised

the periodic functional test to as required, or run to failure, and failed to perform preventative

maintenance activities on the control room laundry sump switches and document the results.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with

Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.

71111.22

Introduction:

A self-revealed Green finding and associated NCV of Technical Specification 5.4.1,

Procedures, was identified for the licensees failure to implement the established

surveillance procedure for DG testing. Specifically, during the scheduled surveillance run of

the Division 1 DG on September 26, 2018, a reactor operator closed the Division 1 DG output

breaker EH1102 at the wrong time to synchronize the generator to the grid. This resulted in

the DG attempting to synchronize to the grid approximately 60 degrees out of phase and

resulted in the DG being declared inoperable for inspection and repairs for seven days.

Description:

On September 26, 2018, reactor operators performed the monthly surveillance for the

Division 1 DG in accordance with SVI-R43-T1317, Diesel Generator Start and Load Division

1. During Section 5.1.2.4.c of the procedure which directs the operator to synchronize

the DG with the grid with the synchroscope needle rotating slowly in the fast direction at

approximately 2 minutes to midnight or the 12 oclock position, the reactor operator in fact

closed the output breaker EH1102 at approximately the 10 oclock position. This resulted in

the DG and the grid attempting to synchronize approximately 60 degrees out of phase.

Immediately after the breaker closed, multiple relays actuated including DG Trip Protect Relay

Lockout and DG Trip Diff Relay Lockout which opened breaker EH1102 and shutdown the

DG.

Corrective Actions: Troubleshooting was performed and the DG inspected for damage

following the out of phase synchronization. The diesel engine prime mover was inspected

and no damage was found. The generator portion was inspected and the licensee discovered

that the stator portion of the generator had shifted such that the air gap between the stator

and rotor were no longer within the manufacturers tolerances. The generator was repaired

and the DG returned to service on October 3, 2018, following a maintenance and surveillance

run. The reactor operator involved was removed from licensed duties and received remedial

training to include the areas of conduct of operations and human performance techniques.

Additionally, an operations specific stand-down was conducted with the event being

discussed and a focus on human performance techniques.

Corrective Action Reference: CR 2018-08510, Division 1 DG Trip While Paralleling to the

Grid.

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: The inspectors determined that the licensees failure to ensure that

procedure SVI-R43-T1317, Diesel Generator Start and Load Division I was implemented

properly was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the licensees ability to

foresee and should have been prevented. Specifically, failure to follow Section 5.1.2.4.c of

the procedure resulted in the DG output breaker being closed early resulting in the Division 1

DG tripping and subsequently being inoperable for seven days in order to perform repairs.

Screening: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency to be more than minor

because it was related to the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Equipment

Performance and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability,

reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable

consequences (i.e., core damage). Specifically, the failure to properly follow procedure

SVI-R43-T1317 resulted in the Division 1 DG being inoperable for seven days.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using SDP Appendix A,

The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating

Systems. The inspectors answered questions in paragraph A.1 through A.4 No and the

issue screened as having very low safety significance (i.e., Green).

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the Avoid Complacency

component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, which states that the licensee will

recognize and plan for the possibility of mistakes, latent issues, and inherent risk, even while

expecting successful outcomes. Specifically, the individuals involved did not recognize and

plan for the possibility of mistakes and did not implement appropriate error reduction tools.

The reactor operator involved had performed synchronizing the DG to the grid multiple times

while on-shift and during simulator training, but stated that he was concerned about picking

up load following closing the breaker and had misplaced his focus away from the task at hand

resulting in the preemptive closure of the breaker. (H.12)

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specification Section 5.4.1states, in part, that written procedures shall

be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures

recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. NRC

Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, Section 8 addresses Procedures for Control of

Measuring and Test Equipment and Surveillance Tests, Procedures, and

Calibrations. Section 8.b states, in part, that, implementing procedures are required for

each surveillance test inspection, or calibration listed in the technical specifications.

Procedure SVI-R43-T1317, Diesel Generator Start and Load Division 1, Revision 22 Step

5.1.2.4.c directed the operator to synchronize the diesel generator with the synchroscope

needle rotating in the fast direction at approximately 2 minutes to midnight or the 12 oclock

position.

Contrary to the above, on September 26, 2018, the licensee failed to implement Step

5.1.2.4.c of procedure SVI-R43-T1317. Specifically, the licensee Reactor Operator closed

breaker EH1102 with the synchroscope moving slow in the fast direction at approximately the

oclock position resulting in the generator attempting to synchronize with the grid

approximately 60 degrees out of phase and the DG protective relays actuating.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the

Enforcement Policy.

71124.01Radiological Hazard Assessment and Exposure Controls

Licensee Identified Non-Cited Violation

This violation of very low safety significant 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.

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1 required in part, that written

procedures/instructions be established, implemented and maintained for activities

recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Regulatory

Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A Section 7.e.(1) addresses Radiation Protection

Procedures for Access Control to Radiation Areas Including a Radiation Work Permit System.

Licensee procedure PYBP-RPS-0016, Radiation Protection Response to Changing Plant

Conditions, Revision 16, addresses access controls to radiation areas. Steps 4.4.2 and 4.4.3

require the licensee to perform actions as specified in the applicable attachments after

notification by plant operations.

Procedure PYBP-RPS-0016, Revision 16, Attachment 7 - RWCU Transfers, provides

instructions for reactor water cleanup transfers, and requires, in part:

Step 3.a, Verify that all scaffolding that allows access to the transfer line have an

installed ladder guard with a RP lock.

Step 3.e, Verify that there is no scaffolding that allows access to the transfer line that

does not have a ladder guard and RP lock.

Contrary to the above, on September 19, 2018, the licensee failed to perform Steps 3.a and

3.e of PYBP-RPS-0016, Revision 16, Attachment 7, which is a procedure required by TS 5.4.1. Specifically, after notification of an upcoming reactor water cleanup transfer, the

licensee failed to verify that all scaffolding that allowed access to the transfer line had an

installed ladder guard with a RP lock and that there was no scaffolding that allowed access to

the transfer line that did not have a ladder guard and RP lock. One scaffold that could

provide access to the transfer line did not have an installed ladder guard with a RP lock.

Significance/Severity Level: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more

than minor because it adversely affected the Program and Process attribute of the Radiation

Safety - Occupational Cornerstone and its objective to ensure the adequate protection of the

worker health and safety from exposure to radiation from radioactive material during routine

civilian nuclear reactor operation. The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding

using SDP Appendix C and concluded the violation was of very low safety or security

significance (Green).

Corrective Action Reference: CR-2018-08229, Non-Compliance with PYBP-RPS-0016,

Radiation Protection Response to Changing Plant Conditions, resulted in a Locked High

Radiation Area Access Control Concern.

Unresolved Item

(Open)

Fit Testing of SCBA Respirators05000440/2018004-03

71124.03

Description:

The inspectors identified a potential performance deficiency and associated violation of NRC

requirements. Specifically, 10 CFR 20.1703(c)(6) requires licensees to perform fit testing for

all tight fitting respirators to ensure the employees receive the appropriate protection by the

respirator. The inspectors observed that the licensee used two styles of respirators, having

two different harnesses with the same face pieces. The inspectors noted that that quantitative

fit tests were only performed using respirators with a rubber harness attached to the face

piece at five adjustable points, while the self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs) found in

the field used a Kevlar harness, with only four adjustment points. Each style of respirator

required an initial fit test and annual retests to meet the requirements contained in

CFR 20.1703(c)(6).

The licensee provided the inspector with its evaluation of the two styles of respirators, which

included fit testing comparisons between the two styles.

Planned Closure Action: The NRC will review the available information to determine if this

performance deficiency is minor or more than minor.

Licensee Action: The licensee is eliminating the rubber harness style that will result in one

quantitative fit test to represent the respirator that will used in the field.

Corrective Action Reference: CR 2018-09900; NRC Identified: Preliminary debrief of a

Green Non-Cited Violation, for the failure to fit test respirator masks with differing harness

configurations.
