Evaluation of Changes, Tests, and Experiments | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed 7 safety evaluations performed pursuant to Title 10, Code of | |||
Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 50, Section 59, to determine if the evaluations were | |||
adequate, and that prior U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval was | |||
obtained as appropriate. The inspectors also reviewed 16 screenings where licensee | |||
personnel had determined that a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation was not necessary. The | |||
inspectors reviewed these documents to determine if: | |||
the changes, tests, and experiments performed were evaluated in accordance | |||
with 10 CFR 50.59 and that sufficient documentation existed to confirm that a | |||
license amendment was not required; | |||
the safety issue requiring the change, tests or experiment was resolved; | |||
the licensee conclusions for evaluations of changes, tests, and experiments were | |||
correct and consistent with 10 CFR 50.59; and | |||
the design and licensing basis documentation was updated to reflect the change. | |||
The inspectors used, in part, Nuclear Energy Institute Document 96-07, Guidelines for | |||
10 CFR 50.59 Implementation, Revision 1, to determine acceptability of the completed | |||
evaluations, and screenings. The Nuclear Energy Institute document was endorsed by | |||
the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.187, Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59, | |||
Changes, Tests, and Experiments, dated November 2000. The inspectors also | |||
consulted Part 9900 of the NRC Inspection Manual, 10 CFR Guidance for | |||
10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments. | |||
This inspection constituted 4 samples of evaluations and 13 samples of screenings | |||
and/or applicability determinations as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04. | |||
b. | |||
Findings | |||
(Open) Unresolved Item 05000263/2016008-01, Failure to provide acceptable Alternate | |||
Methods of Decay Heat Removal | |||
Introduction: The inspectors identified an Unresolved Item associated with Technical | |||
Specification (TS) 3.4.8, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Shutdown Cooling System - | |||
Cold Shutdown. Specifically, the licensee failed to verify that the capability of the | |||
alternate methods of decay heat removal described in Operations Manual C.4-B.03.04.A, | |||
Loss of Normal Shutdown Cooling, were adequate to combat a loss of shutdown cooling | |||
resulting from the loss of one or two RHR subsystems while in MODE 4 with high decay | |||
heat load. | |||
4 | |||
Description: The Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.4.8 of TS Residual Heat | |||
Removal Shutdown Cooling System - Cold Shutdown, required in Mode 4, two RHR | |||
shutdown cooling subsystems shall be operable, and, with no recirculation pump in | |||
operation, at least one RHR shutdown cooling subsystem shall be in operation. The | |||
TS Bases Section 3.4.8, indicated that an operable RHR shutdown cooling subsystem | |||
consisted of one operable RHR pump, one heat exchanger, the associated piping and | |||
valves, and the necessary portions of the RHR Service Water System System capable | |||
of providing cooling water to the heat exchanger. The TS Bases Section 3.4.8 further | |||
indicated that the two subsystems have a common suction source and were allowed to | |||
have a common heat exchanger and common discharge piping. Thus, to meet the LCO, | |||
both pumps in one loop or one pump in each of the two loops must be operable. Since | |||
the piping and heat exchangers were passive components that were assumed not to fail, | |||
they were allowed to be common to both subsystems. | |||
When TS 3.4.8, LCO could not be met, Condition A, for one or two RHR shutdown | |||
cooling subsystems inoperable, the Required Action was to, verify an alternate | |||
method of decay heat removal was available for each inoperable RHR shutdown | |||
cooling subsystem. The completion time for the required action was 1 hour, and | |||
once per 24 hours thereafter. The TS Bases 3.4.8 for Condition A indicated that with | |||
one of the two required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, the remaining | |||
subsystem was capable of providing the required decay heat removal. However, the | |||
overall reliability was reduced, therefore, an alternate method of decay heat removal | |||
must be provided. With both RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, an | |||
alternate method of decay heat removal must be provided in addition to that provided | |||
for the initial RHR shutdown cooling subsystem inoperability. This was to ensure the | |||
re-establishment of backup decay heat removal capabilities, similar to the requirements | |||
of the LCO. The bases further stated that the required cooling capacity of the alternate | |||
method should be ensured by verifying (by calculation or demonstration) its capability to | |||
maintain or reduce temperature. Alternate methods that can be used included (but not | |||
limited to) the Reactor Water Cleanup System by itself or using feed and bleed in | |||
combination with Control Rod Drive System or Condensate/Feed Systems. | |||
Abnormal Procedure, Operations Manual C.4-B.03.04.A, Loss of Normal Shutdown | |||
Cooling, provided instructions for establishing alternate methods for decay heat | |||
removal. The inspectors noticed that except for the alternate method as described | |||
below in the G-EK-1-45, the licensee was not able to show by calculation or | |||
demonstration that the systems and methods credited in this procedure would be | |||
capable of providing sufficient heat removal capability or appropriate levels of | |||
redundancy as required by TS 3.4.8. | |||
The G-EK-1-45 was a General Electric Letter to Northern States Power, Subject: Cold | |||
Shutdown Capability Report, dated April 22, 1981. This letter provided a report which | |||
described the capability of the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant to achieve cold | |||
shutdown using only safety class systems and assuming the worst single failure. The | |||
alternate shutdown decay heat removal method used in the report credited combinations | |||
of the RHR pumps and heat exchangers in the suppression pool cooling mode of RHR | |||
to ensure suppression pool water temperatures were below the design limit. This | |||
method utilized the core spray system and safety relief valves to circulate reactor | |||
inventory to remove decay heat from the reactor. | |||
5 | |||
The inspectors noted that calculations supporting the above alternate strategy utilized an | |||
RHR subsystem that could be inoperable and/or unavailable and therefore may not be | |||
credited to comply with TS 3.4.8. Specifically, the inspectors were concerned that while | |||
the plant was in mode 4, with a credited one subsystem inoperable, the licensees | |||
credited alternate decay heat removal method that relied on an RHR subsystem, to | |||
perform the required suppression pool cooling function. The inspectors were concerned | |||
that relying on the only operable RHR subsystem for the alternate method did not meet | |||
the intent of the TS requirement as described in the TS Bases. Furthermore, the | |||
inspectors noticed for Mode 4 with two RHR subsystems inoperable, the licensee failed | |||
to verify by calculation or demonstrations that two additional redundant alternate decay | |||
heat removal methods existed with sufficient capacity to maintain the average reactor | |||
coolant temperature below 212 degrees Fahrenheit. | |||
During the inspection, the licensee indicated that the Boiling Reactor Owners Group was | |||
in the process of developing a draft TS Task Force Traveler to address the requirement | |||
of TS 3.4.8 and its Bases. | |||
Based on the information above, the inspectors were concerned that the plant | |||
Operations Manual was inadequate and failed to include alternate decay heat removal | |||
methods that would enable the licensee to comply with the requirement of TS 3.4.8. The | |||
Operations Manual was required per TS 5.4.1 Procedures, which required that written | |||
procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the emergency | |||
operating procedures. The inspectors determined that this issue was unresolved | |||
pending the actions by the licensee and the Boiling Reactor Owners Group and the NRC | |||
review of these actions. The licensee entered the inspectors concerns into their | |||
Corrective Action Program as AR 01516098. (URI 05000263/2016008-01, Failure to | |||
provide acceptable Alternate Methods of Decay Heat Removal) | |||
.2 | |||
Permanent Plant Modifications | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors reviewed seven permanent plant modifications that had been installed | |||
in the plant during the last 3 years. This review included in-plant walkdowns portions | |||
of the high-pressure coolant injection steam drain line system, the Emergency Diesel | |||
Generator Fuel Oil Transfer System, including the Diesel Fuel Oil pump house, the new | |||
diesel fuel oil pumps installed in the day tank room, and portions of the fuel oil storage | |||
tank tornado missile protection modifications. The modifications were selected based | |||
upon risk significance, safety significance, and complexity. The inspectors reviewed the | |||
modifications selected to determine if: | |||
the supporting design and licensing basis documentation was updated; | |||
the changes were in accordance with the specified design requirements; | |||
the procedures and training plans affected by the modification have been | |||
adequately updated; | |||
the test documentation as required by the applicable test programs has been | |||
updated; and | |||
post-modification testing adequately verified system operability and/or | |||
functionality. | |||
6 | |||
The inspectors also used applicable industry standards to evaluate acceptability of the | |||
modifications. The list of modifications and other documents reviewed by the inspectors | |||
is included as an Attachment to this report. | |||
This inspection constituted eight permanent plant modification samples as defined in | |||
Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04. | |||

.1
Evaluation of Changes, Tests, and Experiments
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed 7 safety evaluations performed pursuant to Title 10, Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 50, Section 59, to determine if the evaluations were
adequate, and that prior U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval was
obtained as appropriate. The inspectors also reviewed 16 screenings where licensee
personnel had determined that a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation was not necessary. The
inspectors reviewed these documents to determine if:
the changes, tests, and experiments performed were evaluated in accordance
with 10 CFR 50.59 and that sufficient documentation existed to confirm that a
license amendment was not required;
the safety issue requiring the change, tests or experiment was resolved;
the licensee conclusions for evaluations of changes, tests, and experiments were
correct and consistent with 10 CFR 50.59; and
the design and licensing basis documentation was updated to reflect the change.
The inspectors used, in part, Nuclear Energy Institute Document 96-07, Guidelines for
10 CFR 50.59 Implementation, Revision 1, to determine acceptability of the completed
evaluations, and screenings. The Nuclear Energy Institute document was endorsed by
the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.187, Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59,
Changes, Tests, and Experiments, dated November 2000. The inspectors also
consulted Part 9900 of the NRC Inspection Manual, 10 CFR Guidance for
10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments.
This inspection constituted 4 samples of evaluations and 13 samples of screenings
and/or applicability determinations as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04.
b.
Findings
(Open) Unresolved Item 05000263/2016008-01, Failure to provide acceptable Alternate
Methods of Decay Heat Removal
Introduction: The inspectors identified an Unresolved Item associated with Technical
Specification (TS) 3.4.8, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Shutdown Cooling System -
Cold Shutdown. Specifically, the licensee failed to verify that the capability of the
alternate methods of decay heat removal described in Operations Manual C.4-B.03.04.A,
Loss of Normal Shutdown Cooling, were adequate to combat a loss of shutdown cooling
resulting from the loss of one or two RHR subsystems while in MODE 4 with high decay
heat load.
4
Description: The Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.4.8 of TS Residual Heat
Removal Shutdown Cooling System - Cold Shutdown, required in Mode 4, two RHR
shutdown cooling subsystems shall be operable, and, with no recirculation pump in
operation, at least one RHR shutdown cooling subsystem shall be in operation. The
TS Bases Section 3.4.8, indicated that an operable RHR shutdown cooling subsystem
consisted of one operable RHR pump, one heat exchanger, the associated piping and
valves, and the necessary portions of the RHR Service Water System System capable
of providing cooling water to the heat exchanger. The TS Bases Section 3.4.8 further
indicated that the two subsystems have a common suction source and were allowed to
have a common heat exchanger and common discharge piping. Thus, to meet the LCO,
both pumps in one loop or one pump in each of the two loops must be operable. Since
the piping and heat exchangers were passive components that were assumed not to fail,
they were allowed to be common to both subsystems.
When TS 3.4.8, LCO could not be met, Condition A, for one or two RHR shutdown
cooling subsystems inoperable, the Required Action was to, verify an alternate
method of decay heat removal was available for each inoperable RHR shutdown
cooling subsystem. The completion time for the required action was 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, and
once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> thereafter. The TS Bases 3.4.8 for Condition A indicated that with
one of the two required RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, the remaining
subsystem was capable of providing the required decay heat removal. However, the
overall reliability was reduced, therefore, an alternate method of decay heat removal
must be provided. With both RHR shutdown cooling subsystems inoperable, an
alternate method of decay heat removal must be provided in addition to that provided
for the initial RHR shutdown cooling subsystem inoperability. This was to ensure the
re-establishment of backup decay heat removal capabilities, similar to the requirements
of the LCO. The bases further stated that the required cooling capacity of the alternate
method should be ensured by verifying (by calculation or demonstration) its capability to
maintain or reduce temperature. Alternate methods that can be used included (but not
limited to) the Reactor Water Cleanup System by itself or using feed and bleed in
combination with Control Rod Drive System or Condensate/Feed Systems.
Abnormal Procedure, Operations Manual C.4-B.03.04.A, Loss of Normal Shutdown
Cooling, provided instructions for establishing alternate methods for decay heat
removal. The inspectors noticed that except for the alternate method as described
below in the G-EK-1-45, the licensee was not able to show by calculation or
demonstration that the systems and methods credited in this procedure would be
capable of providing sufficient heat removal capability or appropriate levels of
redundancy as required by TS 3.4.8.
The G-EK-1-45 was a General Electric Letter to Northern States Power, Subject: Cold
Shutdown Capability Report, dated April 22, 1981. This letter provided a report which
described the capability of the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant to achieve cold
shutdown using only safety class systems and assuming the worst single failure. The
alternate shutdown decay heat removal method used in the report credited combinations
of the RHR pumps and heat exchangers in the suppression pool cooling mode of RHR
to ensure suppression pool water temperatures were below the design limit. This
method utilized the core spray system and safety relief valves to circulate reactor
inventory to remove decay heat from the reactor.
5
The inspectors noted that calculations supporting the above alternate strategy utilized an
RHR subsystem that could be inoperable and/or unavailable and therefore may not be
credited to comply with TS 3.4.8. Specifically, the inspectors were concerned that while
the plant was in mode 4, with a credited one subsystem inoperable, the licensees
credited alternate decay heat removal method that relied on an RHR subsystem, to
perform the required suppression pool cooling function. The inspectors were concerned
that relying on the only operable RHR subsystem for the alternate method did not meet
the intent of the TS requirement as described in the TS Bases. Furthermore, the
inspectors noticed for Mode 4 with two RHR subsystems inoperable, the licensee failed
to verify by calculation or demonstrations that two additional redundant alternate decay
heat removal methods existed with sufficient capacity to maintain the average reactor
coolant temperature below 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
During the inspection, the licensee indicated that the Boiling Reactor Owners Group was
in the process of developing a draft TS Task Force Traveler to address the requirement
of TS 3.4.8 and its Bases.
Based on the information above, the inspectors were concerned that the plant
Operations Manual was inadequate and failed to include alternate decay heat removal
methods that would enable the licensee to comply with the requirement of TS 3.4.8. The
Operations Manual was required per TS 5.4.1 Procedures, which required that written
procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the emergency
operating procedures. The inspectors determined that this issue was unresolved
pending the actions by the licensee and the Boiling Reactor Owners Group and the NRC
review of these actions. The licensee entered the inspectors concerns into their
Corrective Action Program as AR 01516098. (URI 05000263/2016008-01, Failure to
provide acceptable Alternate Methods of Decay Heat Removal)
.2
Permanent Plant Modifications
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed seven permanent plant modifications that had been installed
in the plant during the last 3 years. This review included in-plant walkdowns portions
of the high-pressure coolant injection steam drain line system, the Emergency Diesel
Generator Fuel Oil Transfer System, including the Diesel Fuel Oil pump house, the new
diesel fuel oil pumps installed in the day tank room, and portions of the fuel oil storage
tank tornado missile protection modifications. The modifications were selected based
upon risk significance, safety significance, and complexity. The inspectors reviewed the
modifications selected to determine if:
the supporting design and licensing basis documentation was updated;
the changes were in accordance with the specified design requirements;
the procedures and training plans affected by the modification have been
adequately updated;
the test documentation as required by the applicable test programs has been
updated; and
post-modification testing adequately verified system operability and/or
functionality.
6
The inspectors also used applicable industry standards to evaluate acceptability of the
modifications. The list of modifications and other documents reviewed by the inspectors
is included as an Attachment to this report.
This inspection constituted eight permanent plant modification samples as defined in
Inspection Procedure 71111.17-04.
