SUBJECT:
SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - NRC COMPONENT DESIGN BASES INSPECTION REPORT 05000387/2007007 AND 05000388/2007007
Dear Mr. McKinney:
On June 29, 2007, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on June 29, 2007, with you and members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
In conducting the inspection, the team examined the adequacy of selected components and operator actions to mitigate postulated transients, initiating events, and design basis accidents.
The inspection also reviewed Pennsylvania Power and Lights (PPL) response to selected operating experience issues. The inspection involved field walkdowns, examination of selected procedures, calculations and records, and interviews with station personnel.
This report documents two NRC-identified findings both of which were of very low safety significance (Green). The findings were determined to involve violations of NRC requirements.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000387/05000388/2007007; 05/21/2007 - 06/29/2007; Susquehanna Steam Electric
Station; Component Design Bases Inspection. The report covers the Component Design Bases Inspection conducted by a team of four NRC inspectors and two NRC contractors. Two findings of very low risk significance (Green) were identified, both were considered to be non-cited violations. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White,
Yellow, Red) using IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP). Findings for which the SDP does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process, Revision 4, dated December 2006.
NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
.
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- GREEN. The team identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B,
Criterion III, Design Control, in that Pennsylvania Power and Light (PPL) did not ensure that quality standards such as applicable regulatory requirements were specified and included in design documentation and that deviations from such standards were controlled. PPL did not identify that a modification performed to the emergency safeguards service water (ESSW) pump house resulted in the RHR system not meeting 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criterion 34, related to single failure criteria. Specifically, the team reviewed a modification performed on the ESSW pump house, in 2002, that removed a door from the building exterior. PPL had identified, in 1990, they did not meet the single failure requirements because the RHR system could fail following a loss of one train of ventilation in the ESSW pump house. To correct the deficiency PPL created a procedure to provide alternate ventilation to the room in the event of a failure of the ventilation system which included opening the door removed by the 2002 modification. Additionally, the team also reviewed a November 2005 condition report identifying that the temporary ventilation procedure was unusable. However, no corrective actions were performed. Following the teams identification of the issue PPL took immediate corrective actions to establish a new ventilation path.
The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the design control attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors evaluated the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, "Significance Determination of Reactor Inspection Findings for At-Power Situations," Phase 1 screening, and determined that there was no actual loss of safety function and the finding screened as having very low safety signicance (Green). The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution - Corrective Actions Program. (Section 1R21.2.1.1)
(IMC0305, aspect P.1. (d))
GREEN. The team identified a non-cited violation of Pennsylvania Power and Light (PPL) Technical Specification 5.4.1, Administrative Controls, Procedures, for failure to iii follow procedures required by Regulatory Guide 1.33. Specifically, an operator did not use a procedure designated step by step to verify switch alignment when substituting the E emergency diesel generator (EDG) for the C EDG as required by PPL administrative procedures. PPL entered this issue into the corrective action program for resolution.
The finding is more than minor because it affected the human performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability and reliability of mitigating systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors evaluated the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, "Significance Determination of Reactor Inspection Findings for At-Power Situations," Phase 1 screening, and determined that the finding screened as having very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance - Work Practices. (Section 1R21.2.2.1) (IMC 0305, aspect H.4 (6)

.1 Inspection Sample Selection Process
The team selected risk significant components and operator actions for review using information contained in the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES) Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC)
Standardized Plant Analysis Risk (SPAR) model. Additionally, the SSES Significance Determination Process (SDP) Phase 2 Notebook, Revision 2, was referenced in the selection of potential components and actions for review. In general, the selection process focused on components and operator actions that had a Risk Achievement Worth (RAW) factor greater than 2.0 or a Risk Reduction Worth (RRW) factor greater than 1.005. The components selected were located within both safety-related and non-safety related systems, and included a variety of components such as turbines, pumps, breakers, fans, generators, transformers, and valves. The components selected involved at least 8 different plant systems.
The team initially compiled a list of 40 components and 10 operator actions based on the risk factors previously mentioned. The team performed a margin assessment to narrow the focus of the inspection to 20 components and 5 operator actions. The teams evaluation of possible low design margin included consideration of original design issues, margin reductions due to modifications, or margin reductions identified as a result of material condition/equipment reliability issues. The assessment included items such as failed performance test results, corrective action history, repeated maintenance, maintenance rule (a)1 status, operability reviews for degraded conditions, NRC resident inspector input of equipment problems, system health reports and industry operating experience. Consideration was also given to the uniqueness and complexity of the design and the available defense-in-depth margins. The margin review of operator actions included complexity of the action, time to complete action, and extent of training of the action.
The inspection performed by the team was conducted as outlined in Inspection Procedure 71111.21. This inspection effort included walk-downs of selected components, interviews with operators, system engineers and design engineers, and reviews of associated design documents and calculations to assess the adequacy of the components to meet design bases, licensing basis and beyond design basis requirements. A summary of the reviews performed for each component, operator action, operating experience sample, and the specific inspection findings identified are discussed in the following sections of the report. Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the attachment.

.2.1.1 Engineered Safeguards Service Water Pumphouse Ventilation
a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the engineered safeguards service water (ESSW) pump house ventilation system to ensure it could meet its required support function for the residual heat removal service water (RHRSW) and emergency service water (ESW) pumps, motors, and motor control center (MCC) it is designed to cool. The team conducted a walkdown of the system, interviewed the system engineer, and reviewed condition reports in order to assess the material condition of the system and verify that issues were being appropriately addressed in the corrective action program. The team reviewed drawings, calculations, and the ESSW motor qualification test report in order to determine if the ESSW motors located in the pumphouse could perform their safety function when exposed to the expected maximum temperatures during design bases accidents. Procedures were reviewed to verify that the actions specified during a failure of one division of ESSW pumphouse ventilation were in agreement with the pump room heat up calculation. The team reviewed 50.59 screenings, and safety evaluations associated with the ESSW pumphouse modification to verify that the changes to the facility were properly reviewed and documented in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59.
b. Findings
Introduction:
The team identified a non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, in that Pennsylvania Power and Light (PPL) did not ensure that quality standards such as applicable regulatory requirements were specified and included in design documentation and that deviations from such standards were controlled. Specifically, PPL did not identify that a modification performed to an emergency safeguards service water (ESSW) pump house resulted in the residual heat removal (RHR) system not meeting 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, Criterion 34, related to single failure criteria.
Description:
The team reviewed a modification performed in 2002 on the ESSW pump house that removed one of the exterior doors and replaced it with a block wall. In November 2005, a condition report (CR) was written identifying that the modification re-introduced a single failure potential in the RHR system. Specifically, the site identified that if ventilation was lost to the Division 2 side of ECCS pump house, due to failure of the motor control center (MCC) supplying the ESSW ventilation system, one train of emergency service water (ESW) and one train of residual heat removal service water (RHRSW) could fail causing the loss of 3 of 4 RHR pumps in both units (6 of 8 total).
During some design basis events, this would result in one of the units not having an RHR pump to use for cooldown and suppression pool cooling because the A EDG would have to supply the two remaining RHR pump motors but only has the capacity to supply one pump motor at a time. This single failure potential had been previously identified in 1991 and corrected by creating an operator action which opened doors in the pump house to provide a ventilation path in the event of a loss of the MCC. This path was lost when the door was removed.
The team performed a walkdown and reviewed design basis information to assess the licensing basis for the operator action. The pump house, divided into two rooms, contains the pumps and motors for both divisions of ESW and both divisions of RHRSW that supply cooling water to the RHR systems and emergency diesel generators (EDGs)for both units. The team determined that a modification performed in 1985 re-piped the emergency service water (ESW) system. In 1988, PPL identified that, due to this modification, a loss of one division of ESSW ventilation would result in only one loop of suppression pool cooling being available for both units. The engineering work request (EWR) performed to correct the issue recommended revising operating procedures to manually open ESW pump house dampers within five hours of a LOOP and ventilation failure. Additionally, the EWR recommended updating the final safety analysis report (FSAR) to describe and credit the action. In 1990, a licensee self-assessment again recommended revising operation procedures to open dampers in the ESSW pump house during a loss of one division of ventilation. Subsequent to this report procedure EO-000-031, Station Power Restoration, was revised to open doors in the ESSW pump house in the event of a ventilation failure. Additionally, in 1998, during the Current Licensing Basis Project, PPL identified that the FSAR had not been updated and operator actions were not incorporated into all required procedures.
The team questioned the adequacy of the operability determination performed to address the 2005 CR and the lack of corrective actions to address the deficiency. PPLs operability assessment in the 2005 CR concluded that the deficiency was a nonconformance with the design basis of the residual heat removal system, but not an operability concern because the ventilation system was working and no MCC failure had occurred. The teams review determined that PPL previous actions to establish the ventilation lineup procedure were necessary to restore the units to compliance. The approved safety analysis report credited that the licensee met the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix A, Criterion 34, which states that the RHR system shall be designed to be available with an assumed single failure. Additionally, the team determined PPL never updated the FSAR to reflect the change in licensing basis.
Because the operator action was not achievable, the team questioned if the required support system for RHR system was operable. Following questions from the team, PPL took immediate corrective actions to create a natural circulation path by blocking open normally closed dampers in the pump house building and corrected deficiencies identified by the team in the implementing procedure.
Analysis:
The team determined that PPLs failure to ensure that the design basis of the RHR system was maintained during the ESSW pump house modification was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within PPLs ability to foresee and correct.
The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the design control attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. In accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, Significance Determination of Reactor Inspection Findings for At Power Situations, the team conducted a Phase 1 SDP screening. The team found the finding was a design deficiency that could impact operability; however, since there was no actual failure of the MCC power supply for the ESSW ventilation system there was no actual loss of safety function, and it was not potentially risk significant due to external events initiators. Therefore, the issue screened as having very low safety significance (Green).
The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution - Corrective Actions Program because PPL did not take appropriate corrective action to address safety issues in a timely manner. Specifically, in November 2005, PPL identified that they were outside their design basis yet no temporary or corrective actions had been taken prior to June 7, 2007. (IMC 0305, aspect P.1 (d))
Enforcement 10CFR50 Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires, in part, that measures to assure quality standards such as applicable regulatory requirements are specified and included in design documentation and that deviations from such standards are controlled. Contrary to the above, PPL did not identify that a modification performed, in 2002, to an emergency safeguards service water (ESSW) pump house resulted in the RHR system not meeting the 10CFR50, Appendix A, Criterion 34, related to single failure criteria. Because this violation is of very low safety significance, PPL took immediate corrective action and entered the issue in the corrective action process (CR 883500), this violation is being treated as a non-cited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

.2.1.2 Ultimate Heat Sink
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed design basis calculations, procedures, and associated documentation regarding the inspections, evaluations, surveillances, maintenance, and corrective actions for the Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS). This included the spray pond, spray arrays, associated spray array and bypass valves and logic, and the pump house structure. The review was performed to assess the maintenance of the design basis capabilities and features of the UHS. In addition, the team walked down the spray pond area and pump house structure to assess the physical configuration and material condition of the pond, pump house, and associated structures. Additionally, the team reviewed design basis calculations such as heat transfer capability, maximum water loss, water impurity concentration factor and chemical controls related to the prevention of plate out on heat exchanger surfaces, water inventory, and sediment depth via periodic inspections and accumulation rate history. The review focused on the ability of the UHS to be available for design basis events. Finally, the team reviewed design basis calculations, surveillance procedures, and surveillance records regarding minimum pond level requirements and maximum pond temperature limitations to determine required pond inventory. The team verified the inventory was adequate to account for heat dissipation and sufficient pond level was available to provide required net positive suction head (NPSH) for, and prevent vortexing of, the RHRSW and ESW pumps. The team reviewed PPLs determination of the spray pond Technical Specification (TS) temperature limit, the uncertainty in the temperature alarm and temperature indicator measurements, and the procedural requirements for monitoring the alarm and indicator to verify they were adequate to ensure UHS operability.

.2.2 Detailed Operator Action Reviews (5 samples)
The team assessed manual operator actions and selected a sample of five operator actions for detailed review based upon risk significance, time urgency, and factors affecting the likelihood of human error. The operator actions were selected from a PRA ranking of operator action importance based on RAW and RRW values. The non-PRA considerations in the selection process included the following factors:
- Margin between the time needed to complete the actions and the time available prior to adverse reactor consequences;

.2.2.1 Operator Aligns E Diesel Generator
a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the operator action to manually align the E EDG to supply emergency power to one of four 4,160 Vac emergency buses during a station blackout event. The team reviewed PPLs PRA and human reliability studies to determine when and how quickly the E EDG was credited with energizing an emergency bus for various initiating event scenarios. The team walked down areas outside the control room where equipment was required to be operated to ensure that equipment was available, and environmental conditions (e.g., lighting, habitability) would allow for the personnel to perform the steps. To evaluate the ability of operators to perform the actions, the team interviewed operators and training personnel. Additionally, the team observed an alignment of the E EDG as substitute for the C EDG to verify procedural direction was adequate to perform the alignment and could be performed within the assumed time constraints of the PRA analysis.
b. Findings
Introduction:
The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green)involving a non-cited violation of Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES) Technical Specification 5.4.1, Administrative Controls, Procedures, for failure to follow procedures required by Regulatory Guide 1.33, when substituting the E emergency diesel generator (EDG) for the C EDG.
Description:
On May 23, 2007, the team observed PPL Nuclear Plant Operators (NPO)substitute the E emergency diesel generator (EDG) for the C EDG in order to remove the C EDG from service and make the E EDG available for standby operations. The operation was performed by an NPO while a second NPO provided peer-checking.
Additionally, the on-shift Field Unit Supervisor (FUS) was in the area and provided oversight during portions of the evolution. The operators were provided procedure OP-024-004, Transfer and Test Mode Operations of Diesel Generator E, by the control room staff to perform the EDG swap. The team noted that the procedure directs operators to use procedure OP-024-001, Diesel Generators, to complete the lineup; however, this procedure was not provided to the NPO by the control room staff. This procedure provides three pages of procedural direction to verify the alignment of the E EDG for standby operation.
When the operators were directed to use the procedure, the team observed that the NPOs did not use a copy of procedure OP-024-001 to perform the alignment. After the substitution was complete, the team asked the FUS if it was acceptable to not have the attachment in-hand when performing the switch alignment. The FUS responded that switch lineup could be performed without referring to the procedure.
The team reviewed the procedure and found that it was classified as a Step-By-Step procedure. The team reviewed PPLs administrative procedure NDAP-QA-0029, Procedure Use Standards and Expectations. The procedure was created to meet the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.33, related to the quality assurance of operating procedures. The procedure defines the adherence level regarding how rigorously a procedure must be used and followed when conducting an activity. The requirements for Step-By-Step adherence include: the procedure must be in the procedure users presence, shall be referred to for each step before performing the step, and the operator must use place-keeping techniques. The team concluded that proper procedure adherence was not used and that multiple barriers to ensure procedural compliance had failed. This included control room staff failing to provide a copy of the procedure to the operator, the operator failure to use the procedure in the field even though a copy of the procedure was available in the room, and the supervisor failing to acknowledge or correct the deficiency after being questioned by the NRC team. The issue was entered into PPLs corrective action program for resolution (CR 880806).
Analysis:
The team found that failure to use procedure OP-024-001, Diesel Generators, was a performance deficiency. The finding is more than minor because it affected the human performance attribute (human error pre and post event) of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability and reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. This finding was evaluated by the significance determination process of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Appendix A, Determining the Significance of Reactor Inspection Findings for At-Power Situations and was found to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not result in inoperability or loss of function to a system. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Work Practices, because personnel did not follow procedures. (IMC 0305, aspect H.4 (b))
Enforcement:
PPL Technical Specification 5.4.1, Administration, requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A.
Regulatory Guide 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation),
Revision 2, Appendix A, Item 1.d. lists an administrative procedure covering procedure adherence as a typical procedure for operating nuclear reactors. PPL procedure NDAP-QA-0029, Procedure Use Standards and Expectations, Rev. 5, requires that applicable procedures be followed to the prescribed level of adherence at all times. For procedures assigned a Step-By-Step adherence level, NDAP-QA-0029 requires that the procedure be in the presence of the person performing the task, place-keeping, and referral to each procedural step prior to performing the action. Contrary to the above, on May 23, 2007, PPL operators did not properly use an EDG procedure which is classified as a Step-by Step procedure. Specifically, while substituting the E EDG for the C EDG, operators did not use procedure OP-024-001 to ensure the E EDG was aligned for standby automatic operation. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the corrective action program (CR 880806), this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with section VI.A of the NRC Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000387;05000388/2007007-02, Failure to Use E EDG Procedure)
.2.2.2 Operators Aligns Instrument Air to Supply Containment Instrument Gas
a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the operator action to manually align the instrument air (IA) system to supply the containment instrument gas (CIG) system to prevent closure of the inboard main steam isolation valves (MSIV) following a loss or failure of both CIG compressors.
The team reviewed the PPLs probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) to determine when the action was credited. The team interviewed operators and training personnel, and walked down plant areas to evaluate the ability of operators to perform necessary actions, and identify unforeseen operator challenges. Additionally, the team observed a simulator scenario to verify that the control room would issue orders to operators in the plant in time to prevent an MSIV closure. Finally, the team reviewed calculations and assumptions used in determining the time before inboard MSIVs begin to close following loss of CIG pressure to verify that sufficient time was available to perform the action.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

System for Low Pressure Injection
a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the operator action to manually connect the fire service (FS) system to the RHRSW system. To evaluate the ability of operators to perform all necessary actions, the team interviewed operators and training personnel and walked down the plant areas where operators would be required to perform the procedure to identify unforeseen operator challenges and verify that actions could be performed.
Additionally, the team verified that equipment required to perform the task was properly staged. Finally, the team reviewed calculations and assumptions used in determining that this action would supply sufficient water inventory to the vessel post accident in order to prevent core damage.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2.2.4 Operator Connects Portable Diesel Generator to 125 Vdc Battery Chargers
a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the operator action to manually connect a portable diesel generator to the four 125 Vdc battery chargers. The team found that PPL calculations credited the ability of operators to align the portable diesel generator and energize the required 125 Vdc battery charger within six hours of a loss-of-offsite power and failure of all four EDGs. To evaluate the ability of operators to perform all necessary actions, the team interviewed operators and training personnel. Additionally, the team observed a simulated connection of the portable diesel generator to the 125 Vdc battery chargers to determine the time period required to perform the action and if required equipment was properly staged. The team reviewed maintenance practices associated with diesel generator and inspected the equipment to assess its material condition. Finally, the team walked down the plant areas where operators would perform required tasks to identify unforeseen operator challenges.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

a. Inspection Scope
The team inspected the operator action to manually operate several RHR system motor operated valves (MOV). These actions enable the RHR system to fulfill its design function despite a loss of electrical power. To evaluate the ability of operators to perform all necessary actions, the team interviewed operators and training personnel.
The team reviewed calculations and assumptions regarding accessibility to RHR system MOVs during accident conditions. Finally, the team walked down the plant areas where operators would perform required tasks to identify unforeseen operator challenges and verify the actions could be properly performed.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
