==Dear Mr. Pacilio:== | ==Dear Mr. Pacilio:== | ||
On | On June 3, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Problem Identification and Resolution inspection at your Clinton Power Station. The enclosed report documents the results of this inspection, which were discussed on June 3, 2011, with Mr. K. Taber and other members of your staff. | ||
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. | |||
- | |||
The inspectors concluded that your staff was effective at identifying problems and incorporating them into the corrective action program (CAP). However, the NRC inspectors identified degradation in Clinton Power Station's evaluation of issues entered into the CAP. Operating Experience (OE) was appropriately screened and disseminated. Audits and self-assessments were determined to be performed at an appropriate level to identify deficiencies, although there were a few instances where station audits had the opportunity | |||
, but failed to identify issues that were later found by the NRC inspection team. On the basis of interviews conducted during the inspection, workers at the site expressed freedom to enter safety concerns into the CAP. | |||
Based on the results of this inspection, three NRC-identified finding s of very low safety significance were identified. One of the findings identified during this inspection was related to the accuracy of an evaluation performed for an operability determination. The second Green finding identified during this inspection was related to an inadequate evaluation that led to a failure to maintain a quality record. The third finding identified during this inspection was related to a failure to measure the effectiveness of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPRs) as required by station procedures. | |||
The finding s involved violation s of NRC requirements. However, because of their very low safety significance, and because the issues were entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating the issues as n on-cited violation s (NCVs) in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the subject or severity of the s e NCV s, 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 a copy to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission | |||

Identification and Resolution of Problems. | |||
This inspection was conducted by three region-based inspectors, the NRC Resident Inspector at the Clinton Power Station, and the onsite Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) inspector. Three Green finding s were identified by the inspectors. The findings were considered non-cited violation s (NCV s) of NRC regulations. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (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 NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 4, dated December 2006. | |||
On the basis of the sample s selected for review, the team concluded that implementation of the corrective action program (CAP) at Clinton Power Station was generally effective, although there has been a degradation in Clinton's CAP over the past two years. The licensee had a low threshold for identifying problems and entering them in the CAP. Items entered into the CAP were screened and prioritized in a timely manner using established criteria and were generally implemented in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. However, t he inspectors identified degradation in the licensee's evaluation of issues entered into the CAP. Specifically, there were several instances where the corrective actions associated with Action Requests (ARs) were not adequate or not appropriate for the circumstances. Additionally, the inspectors identified multiple instances where Effectiveness Reviews (EFRs) were not performed to assess the effectiveness of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPR s). The team noted that the licensee reviewed operating experience for applicability to station activities. Audits and self-assessments were usually performed at an appropriate level to identify deficiencies, although there were a few instances where station audits had the opportunity | |||
, but failed to identify issues that were later found by the NRC inspection team. | |||
On the basis of interviews conducted during the inspection, workers at the site expressed freedom to enter safety concerns into the CAP. | |||
Identification and Resolution of Problems A. | |||
===Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems=== | |||
N RC-Identified and Self-Revealed Findings GreenThe inspectors determined that this finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of design control and . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," related to calculational errors found in the licensee's operability determination. Specifically, on four separate operability determinations | |||
, the licensee failed to account for the cable resistance when determining the maximum allowable contact resistance associated with the second level undervoltage (UV) relays for the 4.16 kV Buses. The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as Action Requests (ARs) 1226340 and 1224313 and performed a preliminary calculation which determined that the error reduced the available margin in the circuit resistance but did not change the overall conclusions for the past operability calls made for the four different occasions. | |||
adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring availability and reliability o f systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. This finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the licensee was able to demonstrate that the operability calls that were previously made relating to the sec ond level UV relays were still valid and acceptable. The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of human performance. Specifically, the licensee failed to use conservative assumptions in decision making related to immediate operability determinations of condition s adverse to quality | |||
. [IMC 0310 H.1(b)] (Section 4OA2.1.b(2)(1)) GreenThe inspectors determined the finding was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, failure to maintain a quality record as evidence of an activity affecting quality of safety-related equipment due to inappropriate disposition of CAs pertaining to missing/lost quality records could become a more significant safety concern | |||
. This finding was of very low safety significance because this finding did not represent an actual loss of any safety function of the Mitigation Systems. The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of human performance. Specifically, the licensee did not ensure complete, accurate and up-to-date design documentation and work packages. [IMC 0310 P.1(d)] (Section 4OA2.1.b(2)(2)) . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII | |||
, "Quality Assurance Records." Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain a quality record documenting a nondestructive examination (NDE) of a safety-related spreader beam lifting device. After losing the original NDE report, the licensee's corrective action (CA) was to recreate the report from memory and maintain the recreated report as the quality record. Upon review and questioning from the NRC, the licensee was able to locate the missing NDE report in the records archive. | |||
This issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as AR 1223723. | |||
===Cornerstone: Initiating Events=== | |||
GreenThe finding was of more than minor significance because it was similar to Example 4a in IMC 0612, "Power Inspection Reports," Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues," in that | |||
, the licensee routinely failed to perform EFR evaluations on similar CAs related to significant conditions adverse to quality. The finding was a licensee performance deficiency of very low safety significance due to answering 'no' to all questions under the Initiating Events Cornerstone column of IMC 0609 Attachment 4, "Phase 1 | |||
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of problem identification and resolution. Specifically, the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate problems to include conducting EFRs of CA s to ensure that problems were resolved. | |||
[IMC 0310 P.1(c)] (Section 4OA2.1.b(3)(1)) . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings." The licensee failed to perform an effectiveness review (EFR) to ensure that CAs taken to prevent recurrence of a significant condition adverse to quality were actually effective to preclude repetition. The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as ARs 1221616, 1221661, and 1223806 to investigate the cause and to identify appropriate CAs. | |||

Program Effectiveness The inspectors reviewed the licensee's CAP implementing procedures and attended CA P meetings to assess the implementation of the CAP by site personnel. | |||
Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed risk and safety | |||
-significant issues in the licensee's CAP since the last NRC Problem Identification and Resolution (PI&R) inspection in April 20 09. The selection of issues ensured an adequate review across NRC cornerstones. The inspectors used issues identified through NRC generic communications, department self-assessment s, licensee audits, operating experience (OE) reports, and NRC documented findings as sources to select issues. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed issue reports generated as a result of facility personnel's performance in daily plant activities. In addition, the inspectors reviewed A Rs and a selection of completed investigations from the licensee's various investigation methods, which included root cause, apparent cause, equipment apparent cause, common cause, and quick human performance investigations. | |||
The inspectors selected one high risk system | |||
, the Emergency Diesel Generator System, to review in detail. The inspectors' review was to determine whether the licensee staff were properly monitoring and evaluating the performance of this system through effective implementation of station monitoring programs. This five year review on the Emergency Diesel Generator System was undertaken to assess the licensee staff's efforts in monitoring for system degradation due to aging aspects. | |||
During the reviews, the inspectors determined whether the licensee staff's actions were in compliance with the facility's CAP and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B requirements. Specifically, the inspectors determined if licensee personnel were identifying plant issues at the proper threshold, entering the plant issues into the station's CA P in a timely manner, and assigning the appropriate prioritization for resolution of the issues. The inspectors also determined whether the licensee staff assigned the appropriate investigation method to ensure the proper determination of root, apparent, and contributing causes. The inspectors also evaluated the timeliness and effectiveness of CAs for selected issue reports, completed investigations, and NRC findings, including NCVs. | |||
b. (1) Assessment Issues were generally being identified at a low threshold, evaluated appropriately, and corrected in the CAP. Workers were familiar with the CAP and felt comfortable raising Effectiveness of Problem Identification | |||
5 Enclosure concerns. This was evident by the large number of CAP items generated annually | |||
; which were reasonably distributed across the various departments. A shared, computerized database was used for creating individual reports and for subsequent management of the processes of issue evaluation and response. These processes included determining the issue | |||
's significance, addressing such matters as regulatory compliance and reporting, and assigning any actions deemed necessary or appropriate. | |||
The inspector s determined that the station was generally effective at trending low level issues to prevent larger issues from developing. The licensee also used the CAP to document instances w here previous CAs were ineffective or were inappropriately closed. | |||
As a result of an observation from the 2009 PI&R Inspection that found deficiencies in security officers | |||
' knowledge on initiating Issue Requests, the inspectors specifically asked security officers if they had received some form of training or instruction on entering issues into the licensee's computer | |||
-based CAP. All security officers interviewed responded that training/instruction had been provided. Additionally, the officers stated that there was a laminated instruction card available at each computer workstation with step | |||
-by-step instructions on how to initiate issue reports. | |||
The inspector s noted that since the 2009 PI&R Inspection, the Security organization had generated approximately 2,100 Issue/Action Reports. From these 2,100 issues , 11 trend IRs were initiated. By comparison, the Training organization generated approximately 750 IRs and 13 trend IRs during the same period. The Training Department is about one fourth the size of the Security Department. Although the Security Department meets the requirements for quarterly trending (LS | |||
-AA-125-1005), the inspector felt that, based on numbers alone, the Security organization should be identifying/initiating more trend IRs. It may be prudent for all departments to examine their trending program to ensure trends or potential trends are being identified. | |||
Observation During review of work order (WO) 01277109 Task ID 1, "Replace Grounded 'B' RR | |||
[Reactor Recirculation] | |||
Pump Motor," referenced from action AR 00988866, "RR B Motor Change Out Spreader Beam NDE INSP Report Missing," the inspectors identified that contrary to WO 01277109 guidance, the licensee had inappropriately marked | |||
'N/A' [Not Applicable] | |||
on step 4.2 of Task ID 1 and step 4.3 of Task ID 14 in WO 01277109. These procedure steps required inspection and supervisory oversight of rigging devices and should not have been marked 'N/A'. However, an earlier procedure step had accomplished the same function. | |||
Failure to Follow Work Order Instructions The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to follow instructions in Step 4.2 of Task ID 1 and Step 4.3 of Task ID 14 in WO 01277109 is a violation of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," which requires, in part, that activities affecting quality be performed in accordance with instructions, procedures, and drawings appropriate to the circumstance. Instructions, procedures or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished. | |||
The licensee subsequently addressed this issue of failure to follow WO instructions in the CAP as AR 1223512, "(NRC Identified) Issue Identified with WO Documentation." | |||
6 Enclosure This failure to comply with the requirements of Title 10 CF R 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy. | |||
No findings were identified. | |||
Findings (2) The inspectors concluded that the station was generally effective at prioritizing issues commensurate with their safety significance. The inspectors observed that the majority of issues identified were of low-level and were either closed to trend, closed to actions taken, or characterized at a level appropriate for a condition evaluation. Issues were being appropriately screened by both the Station Oversight Committee (SOC) and Management Review Committee (MRC). There were no items in the operations, engineering, or maintenance backlogs that were risk | |||
-significant, individually or collectively. | |||
Effectiveness of Prioritization and Evaluation of Issues The inspectors concluded that the station's evaluation of issues was not always thorough and there ha d been degradation in this area of Clinton Power Station's CAP. Specifically, there were several instances where the CAs associated with ARs were not adequate or not appropriate for the circumstances. This was evidenced by two minor violations and two finding s identified during this inspection. | |||
Observations During review of AR No. 0092284, "NDE Inspection for Strongback Is Not Identified," the inspectors identified that the licensee's CA to resolve this AR was to revise Exelon procedure MA | |||
-AA-716-021, "Periodic Inspection of Rigging Equipment." The inspectors verified that procedure MA | |||
-AA-716-021(revision 2) was indeed revised to identify the special lifting device inspection requirements of ANSI N14.6 | |||
-1978, "American National Standard for Special Lifting Devices for Shipping Containers Weighing 10,000 Pounds (4500 kg) or More for Nuclear Materials." However, subsequent to this revision, the licensee made another revision to procedure MA | |||
-AA-716-021 (revision 3), which essentially removed ANSI N14.6 | |||
-1978 requirements for periodic inspection of special lifting devices from the procedure. The licensee maintain ed that upon evaluation at the time of revising MA | |||
-A A-716-021, Rev. 2, the licensee determined that the special lifting device periodic inspection requirements as described in ANSI N | |||
-14.6-1978 would be more appropriately captured in equipment specific documents such as Preventative Maintenance Requests (PMR Qs) and vendor specific work orders. Upon review of these special lifting device (equipment specific) documents, the inspectors identified that the licensee had not adequately included the ANSI N14.6 requirements into these documents. Specifically, the inspection requirements and periodicity of inspection of special lifting devices was not adequately addressed in these equipment specific documents. | |||
Failure to Adequately Maintain Regulatory Requirements in Design Basis Procedures and Instructions | |||
7 Enclosure The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to have adequate procedures/documents for inspection of special lifting devices per ANSI Code N14.6-1978 is a violation of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," which requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as defined in 10 CFR 50.2 and as specified in the license application, for those structures, systems, and components to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. | |||
The licensee generated AR 1224057 , "Submit Service Requests to revise PMRQs 156877 & 156886 to be Consistent with the Requirements from ANSI N14.6. Document Service Request Approval and PMRQ Changes Results as Closure, and Create Additional Actions as Required | |||
," to revise the equipment specific documents, such that they adequately capture the appropriate ANSI N14.6 requirements for periodic inspection of special lifting devices. | |||
This failure to comply with the requirements of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy. | |||
The inspectors identified a minor violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to demonstrate by calculation that the Technical Specifications (TS) upper voltage limits for the emergency diesel generator (EDG) surveillance test s were adequate to support operability of all safety-related loads. Specifically, the licensee failed to provide adequate evaluation for AR 670088 "Non-Conservative TS for 4.16 kV Vital Bus Voltage," initiated in 2007 during a Component Design Basis Inspection (CDBI) self-assessment. The self | |||
-assessment raised a concern regarding the upper limit for the 4.16 kV safety-related bus voltage of 4580 volts as being non-conservative. The maximum analytical limit in the design calculation was 4454 volts due to potential overvoltage on the 120 volt components. The AR evaluation concluded that the current administrative limit of 4300 volts in the surveillance procedures was adequate to limit the safety-related bus voltages to ensure their safety function. However, the inspectors determined that the licensee's evaluation failed to correctly address the concern regarding the non | |||
-conservative TS voltage limits. The current design basis analysis did not support the TS upper voltage limit (4580 volts) for the safety-related buses. The licensee entered this issue into their CAP as AR 1226340 , "Maximum Steady State Voltage for TS 3.8.1 Nonconservative | |||
." Failure to Demonstrate by Calculation Operability of Safety-Related Loads When Powered from the EDGs This failure to comply with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC | |||
=s Enforcement Policy. | |||
(1) Findings Introduction | |||
: The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to account for the cable resistance in immediate operability Failure to Account for Cable Resistance in Operability Determinations | |||
8 Enclosure determinations. Specifically, on four different occasions, the licensee failed to account for the cable resistance when determining the maximum allowable circuit resistance to ensure that adequate minimum voltage was available for the trip coils associated with the 4.16 KV buses. | |||
Description | |||
: On the following four different occasions, during the performance of CPS 9333.20 and CPS 9333.30, "4.16 kV Degraded Voltage Trip Functional Test," for Division I and Division II respectively, contact resistance for the undervoltage (UV) relays w as found unacceptable. UV relays 227X1 | |||
-21A1-2 and 227X1 | |||
-21B1-2 were found to have higher than expected resistance readings across the closed contacts used to trip the Reserve Auxiliary Transformer (RAT) Feed Breaker upon initiation of a degraded voltage signal. | |||
Typically, closed contact readings should read significantly less than 1 ohm. | |||
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on May 14, 2009, contacts between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1 | |||
-21B1-2 read approximately 3.6 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was operable and would perform its function. | |||
This issue was documented in AR 919673. | |||
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on July 15, 2009, contact between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1 | |||
-21B1-2 again showed higher contact readings; anywhere from 14 to 48 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was inoperable and subsequently, the associated emergency diesel generator was also declared inoperable. This issue was documented in AR 947824. | |||
During the performance of 9333.20 on July 30, 2009, contact between 11 and 20 on relay 227X1 | |||
-21A1-2 read approximately 2.43 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was operable. This issue was documented in AR 947581. | |||
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on December 17, 2009, contacts between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1 | |||
-21B1-2 again showed higher contact resistance readings of 19.4 ohms across the contacts. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was inoperable. This issue was documented in AR 1006888. | |||
The operability determination in all four occasions listed above was based on a simplified calculation showing that as long as the resistance between the contacts was less than 13.1 ohms, then adequate voltage of greater than 70 Vdc would be available for the trip coil to perform its function in a worst case scenario. The inspectors noticed that this acceptance criterion for the maximum contact resistance was not listed in the surveillance procedure CPS 9333.20 or CPS 9333.30. The inspectors also noticed that the equation used in the simplified calculation that determined the maximum acceptable resistance between the contacts did not account for the cable resistance for the control cables associated with the trip coil control circuitry. Subsequent to the inspector identification of this deficiency, the licensee identified the length of the cables associated with these affected circuits as a total of 860 feet and 1114 feet for Division I and II respectively. The licensee recalculated the maximum acceptable resistance value using the cable length/resistance and determined that the original calculated value of 13.1 ohms was reduced by 2.07 ohms and 2.7 ohms for Division I and II respectively. | |||
9 Enclosure The inspectors determined that the new calculated values for the maximum resistance between the contact would not have changed the past operability determinations for the above four occasions. In addition, the licensee's two Equipment Apparent Cause Evaluations (EACEs), which were performed for AR 947581 and AR 1006888, also determined that the apparent cause of the high contact resistance readings was due to the improper measuring technique and not actual degraded relay contact. | |||
=====Analysis:===== | |||
The inspectors determined that the failure to account for the cable resistance in four different operability determinations was a performance deficiency warranting a significance evaluation. The performance deficiency was determined to be more t han minor because the finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of design control and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically | |||
, on two of the four immediate operability determinations, the licensee failed to ensure that adequate voltage would be available for the trip coils when the contact resistance for the second level under | |||
-voltage relays was reading higher than expected. The inspectors performed a Phase 1 SDP review of this finding using the guidance provided in IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 | |||
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." In accordance with Table 4a, "Characterization Worksheet for IE, MS, and BI Cornerstones," the inspectors determined that this finding was a design deficiency confirmed not to result in loss of operability or functionality. Specifically, the licensee was able to demonstrate that the operability calls that were previously made, when the operability of the second level under | |||
-voltage relays was in question, were still acceptable when the cable resistance was added. | |||
The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross | |||
-cutting aspect of human performance, Decision Making. Specifically, the licensee failed to use conservative assumptions in decision making affecting the operability of the second level under | |||
-voltage relays when conditions adverse to quality were identified. (IMC 0310 H.1(b)). | |||
Cross-Cutting Aspects Enforcement | |||
: Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. | |||
Contrary to the above, in 2009, on four d ifferent occasions, the licensee failed to ensure that applicable regulatory requirements and design basis related to second level UV relay circuits were correctly translated into calculations used in immediate operability determinations. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that the cable resistance was accounted for when determining the maximum allowable circuit resistance to ensure that adequate minimum voltage was available for trip coils associated with the 4.16 kV buses. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensee's CAP as AR 01223508, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. | |||
(NCV 05000461/2011008 | |||
-01, Failure to Account for Cable Resistance in Operability Determinations | |||
). The licensee entered this into their CAP as AR s 1226340 and 1224313. | |||
10 Enclosure (2) Failure to Maintain a Quality Record as Evidence of an Activity Affecting Quality of Safety-Related Equipment Due to Inappropriate Corrective Actions The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and a NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII , "Quality Assurance Records," for the licensee's failure to maintain sufficient quality records that provide evidence of activities affecting quality of safety-related equipment. | |||
Introduction During review of AR 00988866 , "RR 'B' Motor Change out Spreader Beam NDE INSP Report Missing," the inspectors identified that the licensee did not have in their completed work order documents the NDE report that is required to qualify the spreader beam used to lift the reactor recirculation motor during the change out process in the drywell. The NDE of the critical welds of the spreader beam, which is considered a special lifting device | |||
, is required by ANSI N14.6 | |||
-1978, "American National Standard for Special Lifting Devices for Shipping Containers Weighing 10,000 Pounds (4500 kg) or More for Nuclear Materials," prior to each use. | |||
Description AR 00988866 dated November 4, 2009 | |||
, states that the NDE was performed on the spreader beam prior to use in lifting the reactor recirculation 'B' motor, however no record of the NDE existed in the completed work order documents. The licensee proposed three recommended actions in A R 00988866 as resolution of this CR: 1) Personnel who were involved should search their working areas to locate the missing NDE inspection report, 2) Duplicate report may be generated based on recollection of the inspection, 3) | |||
Perform NDE inspection for the used spreader beam again and document the results per this AR (if #1 and #2 are not feasible). On November 23, 2009 , the missing NDE report was recreated based on recollection from memory of the individual who conducted the examination and approved by licensee corporate NDE. | |||
Upon review and further questioning from the inspectors, the licensee attempted to find the missing original NDE report. After extensive searching, the licensee did find the missing original NDE report dated October 18, 2009, which differed in certain parameters from the recreated NDE report dated November 23, 2009. | |||
The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to maintain a quality record documenting an NDE on safety-related equipment due to inappropriate CA s is a performance deficiency that impacted the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone. | |||
Analysis The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, failure to maintain a quality record as evidence of an activity affecting quality of safety-related equipment due to inappropriate disposition of CA s pertaining to missing/lost quality records | |||
, could become a more significant safety concern. Absent NRC identification, the licensee would deem it acceptable practice to recreate from memory, quality records of activities that affect quality of safety-related equipment in lieu of more appropriate CAs available to the licensee. | |||
The inspectors completed a significance determination, in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 | |||
- Initial Screening 11 Enclosure and Characterization of Findings," Table 4a for the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone. Based on answering 'no' to each of the Phase 1 screening questions identified in the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone column of Table 4a, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance. Specifically, this finding did not represent an actual loss of any safety function of the Mitigation Systems. | |||

Failure to maintain a sufficient record that provides evidence of the NDE affecting quality of the safety-related spreader beam was a violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII.

( | (3) The effectiveness of corrective actions for the items reviewed by the inspectors was generally appropriate for the identified issues. Over the two year period encompassed by the inspection, the inspectors identified no significant examples where problems recurred. | ||
The inspectors did identify one weakness associated with the station's use of EFRs to evaluate Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPR). While reviewing Root Cause Evaluations performed since the last biennial PI&R inspection in 2009, the inspectors identified six examples where Clinton Power Station failed to perform EFRs as required by the station's CAP procedures. | |||
Effectiveness of Corrective Actions | |||
12 Enclosure (1) Findings Failure to Perform Effectiveness Review Inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings." The licensee failed to perform an EFR to ensure that CAs taken to prevent recurrence of a significant condition adverse to quality were actually effective to preclude repetition. | |||
Introduction Inspectors performed a review of the licensee's CAP with a focus, in particular, on how significant conditions adverse to quality are addressed. Exelon procedure LS | |||
-AA-120, "Issue Identification and Screening Process," defines a significant condition adverse to quality to include "severe operating abnormalities or large deviations from expected plant performance of safe ty-related structures, systems, or components; [and] "events" such as described in the plant Technical Specifications." 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criteria XVI requires, in part, that "In the case of significant conditions adverse to quality the measures shall ensure that the cause of the condition is determined and CA taken to preclude repetition." LS | |||
-AA-125, Revision 15, "Corrective Action Program Procedure," Step 1.3 states that "significant conditions adverse to quality and conditions adverse to quality are resolved through direct action, the implementation of CAPRs and Corrective Actions (CAs)." | |||
Discussion Inspectors then focused their review upon how the licensee identifies CAPRs to resolve significant conditions adverse to quality. The licensee's method to accomplish this was through its highest level of investigation, a Root Cause | |||
=====Analysis.===== | |||
During a general review of the licensee's Root Cause Reports completed within the previous two years, inspectors identified six examples where the licensee failed to follow it s processes for correcting significant conditions adverse to quality | |||
. | |||
On October 23, 2009 | |||
, the licensee completed Root Cause Report (RCR) 972235, "Valve Packing Failure inside Drywell Resulted in Plant Shutdown Due to Increasing Unidentified Leakage Rate." The conclusion of the licensee's report was that there were two root causes for the plant shutdown event: 1) That the 1E51F063 valve stem was off center with the stuffing b ox with the potential to cause packing side loading and accelerated loss of packing load, and 2) Inadequate work instruction did not require the packing in 1E51F063 to be torqued to the as | |||
-left value from the original installation. The investigation also identified two CAPRs, one to address each root cause identified. Licensee procedure LS | |||
-AA-125-1001, "Root Cause Analysis Manual," Revision 8, Attachment 12 identifies the attributes of a CAPR; specifically, "CAPRs are intended to address the root cause(s)in a manner to prevent recurrence, therefore, CAPRs should have the following attributes: specific, measurable, accountable, reasonable, timely, effective, reviewable, actionable, linked to a root cause, [etc]." RCR 972235 was approved by the licensee with the EFR portion blank, other than the statement that "An Effectiveness Review to address the effectiveness of the Root Cause CA is not necessary. The root cause is limited to a single valve, 1E51F063, with an off center stem to stuffing box condition. | |||
The work order to investigate and correct the condition is sufficient assurance the condition is corrected and will no longer cause accelerated loss of packing load." This statement addresses only one of the two identified root causes 13 Enclosure and also appears contrary to the licensee's procedural guidance that a CAPR should be measurable and reviewable. After questions from inspectors, the licensee determined that its MRC had approved this RCR with comments to be incorporated, one of which was to add EFRs for the CAPRs. This action was later closed without initiating any EFR. | |||
Further review by inspectors identified five additional examples where the licensee failed to follow their procedures with respect to CAPRs and EFRs. | |||
1. RCR 979700, "1B33C001B: RR B Trip - Resulting in Reactor Scram," identified a Special Plant Condition as a CAPR which included the instruction to generate additional actions as needed and include the identified Root Cause, Extent of Condition/Cause, CAPRs, and EFR. No EFR was ever created. | |||
2. RCR 1017724, "Contract Employee Contaminated in Drywell," identified one root cause, one CAPR, and did include one EFR. However, this EFR was performed to address a separate CA and not the CAPR which was identified. | |||
3. RCR 1023530, "Gate Seal Leakage during Containment Isolation Valve System Functional Test," identified two root causes and two CAPRs. An EFR was assigned to the first CAPR and none was assigned to the second. However, on April 19, 2011 | |||
, AR 1204691 was written by the licensee's Nuclear Oversight (NOS) organization which identified this omission of a required EFR. | |||
In this AR, NOS stated that " | |||
failing to create and document individual EFRs could result in not identifying whether a single CAPR effectively resolved an identified cause." At the time of inspection the RCR was provided in final form to inspectors with no correction made for this identification from NOS. | |||
4. RCR 1147568, "Re | |||
-Evaluation Exam Provided Did Not Meet Expectations," identified one root cause and two CAPRs. The licensee assigned two EFRs to one of the CAPRs, however the EFR was marked "N/A" for the other CAPR which was identified. | |||
5. RCR 1157980, "WANO Identified Area for Improvement for Relays and Power Supplies," identified two root causes, one CAPR and assigned two EFRs to be completed. However, these two EFRs were assigned to CAs and not the identified CAPR. Notably, in the EFR section of this report a preface was added which stated "There is no specific EFR action for the CAPR," and "no specific effectiveness criteria can be developed. | |||
Therefore no specific EFR action is to be completed. | |||
This was reviewed with and approved by MRC." | |||
The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to perform EFR s which verify that CAs taken for significant conditions adverse to quality successfully prevent their reoccurrence was a performance deficiency warranting a significance evaluation. The finding was of more than minor significance because it was similar to Example 4a in IMC 0612, "Power Inspection Reports," Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues," in that the licensee routinely failed to perform EFR evaluations of CAs taken to prevent recurrence of significant conditions adverse to quality. The inspectors performed a Phase 1 SDP review of this finding using the guidance provided in IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1 | |||
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." Analysis 14 Enclosure In accordance with Table 4a, "Characterization Worksheet for IE [Initiating Events], MS [Mitigating Systems], and BI [Barrier Integrity] Cornerstones | |||
," the inspectors determined that this finding was a licensee performance deficiency of very low safety significance (Green) due to answering 'no' to all questions under the Initiating Events Cornerstone column. | |||
Inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross | |||
-cutting aspect of problem identification and resolution. Specifically, the licensee's CAP did not thoroughly evaluate problems to include, for significant problems, conducting EFRs of CAs to ensure that problems are resolved. (IMC 0310 P.1(c)) Cross-Cutting Aspects 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criteria V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," requires, in part, that activities 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 drawings. Licensee procedure LS | |||
-AA-125, "Corrective Action Program Procedure," Step 1.3 states that "significant conditions adverse to quality and conditions adverse to quality are resolved through direct action, the implementation of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence and Corrective Actions." Step 4.4.8 of this procedure states "Perform Effectiveness Reviews in accordance with LS | |||
-AA-125-1004, Effectiveness Review Manual." Revisions 4 and 5 of LS | |||
-AA-125-1004, "Effectiveness Review Manual," in effect during this time period of review, contain requirements that "all CAPRs are to be evaluated in the EFR" and to "Initiate Attachment 1, 'Individual Effectiveness Review' for each of the CAPRs identified." | |||
Enforcement Contrary to the above, on the six separate occasions previously described, the licensee failed to perform EFR s in accordance with its procedures to verify that CAs taken for significant conditions adverse to quality successfully prevent ed their reoccurrence | |||
. Because of the very low safety significance, this violation is being treated as a n NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000461/201 1 00 8-0 3 , Failure to Perform Effectiveness Review | |||
). The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as ARs 01221616, 01221661, and 01223806. | |||
===.2 a. Assessment of the Use of Operating Experience=== | |||
(OE) The inspectors reviewed the licensee's implementation of the facility's OE program. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed implementing operating experience program procedures, attended CAP meetings to observe the use of OE information, and completed evaluations of OE issues and events. The inspectors' review was to determine whether the licensee was effectively integrating OE experience into the performance of daily activities, whether evaluations of issues were proper and conducted by qualified personnel, whether the licensee's program was sufficient to prevent future occurrences of previous industry events, and whether the licensee effectively used the information in developing departmental assessments and facility audits. The inspectors also assessed if CAs, as a result of OE experience, were identified and implemented in an effective and timely manner. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
15 Enclosure b. In general, OE was effectively used at the station. The inspectors observed that OE was discussed as part of the daily station and pre-job briefings. Industry OE was effectively disseminated across the various plant departments and no issues were identified during the inspectors' review of licensee OE evaluations. During interviews, several licensee personnel commented favorably on the use of OE in their daily activities. | |||
Assessment No findings were identified. | |||
Findings | |||
===.3 a. Assessment of Self=== | |||
-Assessments and Audits The inspectors assessed the licensee staff's ability to identify and enter issues into the CA program, prioritize and evaluate issues, and implement effective CAs, through efforts from departmental assessments and audits. | |||
Inspection Scope b. The inspector s concluded that self | |||
-assessments, NOS audits, and other assessments were typically effective at identifying most issues. The inspector s concluded that these audits and self | |||
-assessments were generally completed in a methodical manner by personnel knowledgeable in the subject area. | |||
Corrective Actions associated with the identified issues were implemented commensurate with their safety significance. | |||
Assessment There were a few issues identified by the inspectors that were not identified during station self-assessments and/o r audits. NOS previously identified one of the RCE's that did not include EFRs for the CAPRs. However, NOS did not identify the other five instances where EFRs were not included to review CAPRs. Additionally, as preparation for this inspection, an assessment team comprised of Clinton employees along with one Quad Cities and one Robinson Nuclear Plant employee performed a focused self assessment (FASA) on Clinton's CAP. The FASA identified no strengths, 19 recommendations, and 21 standards deficiencies. | |||
However, the FASA did not identify any of the issues and weaknesses that were identified by the NRC inspection team. Additionally, the FASA did not identify the decline in performance of Clinton's CAP that was identified by the NRC inspection team. | |||
No findings were identified. | |||
Findings | |||
===.4 a. Assessment of Safety=== | |||
-Conscious Work Environment The inspectors assessed the licensee's safety-conscious work environment (SCWE) through reviews of the facility's employee concerns program (ECP)implementing procedures, discussions with ECP coordinators, interviews with personnel from various Inspection Scope | |||
16 Enclosure departments, and reviews of issue reports. The inspectors also reviewed the results of licensee safety culture surveys. | |||
b. The inspectors determined that the plant staff were aware of the importance of having a strong SCWE and expressed a willingness to raise safety issues. No one interviewed had experienced retaliation for safety issues raised or knew of anyone who had failed to raise issues. All persons interviewed had an adequate knowledge of the CAP process. | |||
These results were similar with the findings of the licensee's safety culture surveys. | |||
Based on these limited interviews, the inspectors concluded that there was no evidence of an unacceptable SCWE. | |||
Assessment The inspectors determined that the ECP process was being effectively implemented. The inspectors noted that the licensee had appropriately investigated and taken constructive actions to address potential cases of harassment and intimidation for raising issues. | |||
No findings were identified. | |||

===.1 Management Meetings=== | |||
On June 3, 2011, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. B. K. Taber, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The inspectors confirmed that none of the potential report input discussed was considered proprietary. | |||

SUBJECT: CLINTON POWER STATIO N NRC PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION INSPECTION REPORT 05000461/20 11008
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On June 3, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Problem Identification and Resolution inspection at your Clinton Power Station. The enclosed report documents the results of this inspection, which were discussed on June 3, 2011, with Mr. K. Taber and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
The inspectors concluded that your staff was effective at identifying problems and incorporating them into the corrective action program (CAP). However, the NRC inspectors identified degradation in Clinton Power Station's evaluation of issues entered into the CAP. Operating Experience (OE) was appropriately screened and disseminated. Audits and self-assessments were determined to be performed at an appropriate level to identify deficiencies, although there were a few instances where station audits had the opportunity
, but failed to identify issues that were later found by the NRC inspection team. On the basis of interviews conducted during the inspection, workers at the site expressed freedom to enter safety concerns into the CAP.
Based on the results of this inspection, three NRC-identified finding s of very low safety significance were identified. One of the findings identified during this inspection was related to the accuracy of an evaluation performed for an operability determination. The second Green finding identified during this inspection was related to an inadequate evaluation that led to a failure to maintain a quality record. The third finding identified during this inspection was related to a failure to measure the effectiveness of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPRs) as required by station procedures.
The finding s involved violation s of NRC requirements. However, because of their very low safety significance, and because the issues were entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating the issues as n on-cited violation s (NCVs) in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the subject or severity of the s e NCV s, 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 a copy to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000 461/20 11008, Clinton Power Station;
Identification and Resolution of Problems.
This inspection was conducted by three region-based inspectors, the NRC Resident Inspector at the Clinton Power Station, and the onsite Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) inspector. Three Green finding s were identified by the inspectors. The findings were considered non-cited violation s (NCV s) of NRC regulations. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (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 NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 4, dated December 2006.
On the basis of the sample s selected for review, the team concluded that implementation of the corrective action program (CAP) at Clinton Power Station was generally effective, although there has been a degradation in Clinton's CAP over the past two years. The licensee had a low threshold for identifying problems and entering them in the CAP. Items entered into the CAP were screened and prioritized in a timely manner using established criteria and were generally implemented in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance. However, t he inspectors identified degradation in the licensee's evaluation of issues entered into the CAP. Specifically, there were several instances where the corrective actions associated with Action Requests (ARs) were not adequate or not appropriate for the circumstances. Additionally, the inspectors identified multiple instances where Effectiveness Reviews (EFRs) were not performed to assess the effectiveness of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPR s). The team noted that the licensee reviewed operating experience for applicability to station activities. Audits and self-assessments were usually performed at an appropriate level to identify deficiencies, although there were a few instances where station audits had the opportunity
, but failed to identify issues that were later found by the NRC inspection team.
On the basis of interviews conducted during the inspection, workers at the site expressed freedom to enter safety concerns into the CAP.
Identification and Resolution of Problems A.
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
N RC-Identified and Self-Revealed Findings GreenThe inspectors determined that this finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of design control and . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," related to calculational errors found in the licensee's operability determination. Specifically, on four separate operability determinations
, the licensee failed to account for the cable resistance when determining the maximum allowable contact resistance associated with the second level undervoltage (UV) relays for the 4.16 kV Buses. The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as Action Requests (ARs) 1226340 and 1224313 and performed a preliminary calculation which determined that the error reduced the available margin in the circuit resistance but did not change the overall conclusions for the past operability calls made for the four different occasions.
adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring availability and reliability o f systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. This finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the licensee was able to demonstrate that the operability calls that were previously made relating to the sec ond level UV relays were still valid and acceptable. The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of human performance. Specifically, the licensee failed to use conservative assumptions in decision making related to immediate operability determinations of condition s adverse to quality
. [IMC 0310 H.1(b) (Section 4OA2.1.b(2)(1)) GreenThe inspectors determined the finding was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, failure to maintain a quality record as evidence of an activity affecting quality of safety-related equipment due to inappropriate disposition of CAs pertaining to missing/lost quality records could become a more significant safety concern
. This finding was of very low safety significance because this finding did not represent an actual loss of any safety function of the Mitigation Systems. The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of human performance. Specifically, the licensee did not ensure complete, accurate and up-to-date design documentation and work packages. [IMC 0310 P.1(d) (Section 4OA2.1.b(2)(2)) . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII
, "Quality Assurance Records." Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain a quality record documenting a nondestructive examination (NDE) of a safety-related spreader beam lifting device. After losing the original NDE report, the licensee's corrective action (CA) was to recreate the report from memory and maintain the recreated report as the quality record. Upon review and questioning from the NRC, the licensee was able to locate the missing NDE report in the records archive.
This issue was entered into the licensee's CAP as AR 1223723.
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
GreenThe finding was of more than minor significance because it was similar to Example 4a in IMC 0612, "Power Inspection Reports," Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues," in that
, the licensee routinely failed to perform EFR evaluations on similar CAs related to significant conditions adverse to quality. The finding was a licensee performance deficiency of very low safety significance due to answering 'no' to all questions under the Initiating Events Cornerstone column of IMC 0609 Attachment 4, "Phase 1
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross-cutting aspect of problem identification and resolution. Specifically, the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate problems to include conducting EFRs of CA s to ensure that problems were resolved.
[IMC 0310 P.1(c) (Section 4OA2.1.b(3)(1)) . The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings." The licensee failed to perform an effectiveness review (EFR) to ensure that CAs taken to prevent recurrence of a significant condition adverse to quality were actually effective to preclude repetition. The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as ARs 1221616, 1221661, and 1223806 to investigate the cause and to identify appropriate CAs.
B. No violations of significance were identified.

4. OTHER ACTIVITIES
REPORT DETAILS
4OA2 Problem Identification and ResolutionThe activities documented in sections
.1 through .4 constitute
d one biennial sample of problem identification and resolution as defined in Inspection Procdure (IP) 71152.
(71152B)
.1 a. Assessment of the Corrective Action
Program Effectiveness The inspectors reviewed the licensee's CAP implementing procedures and attended CA P meetings to assess the implementation of the CAP by site personnel.
Inspection Scope The inspectors reviewed risk and safety
-significant issues in the licensee's CAP since the last NRC Problem Identification and Resolution (PI&R) inspection in April 20 09. The selection of issues ensured an adequate review across NRC cornerstones. The inspectors used issues identified through NRC generic communications, department self-assessment s, licensee audits, operating experience (OE) reports, and NRC documented findings as sources to select issues. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed issue reports generated as a result of facility personnel's performance in daily plant activities. In addition, the inspectors reviewed A Rs and a selection of completed investigations from the licensee's various investigation methods, which included root cause, apparent cause, equipment apparent cause, common cause, and quick human performance investigations.
The inspectors selected one high risk system
, the Emergency Diesel Generator System, to review in detail. The inspectors' review was to determine whether the licensee staff were properly monitoring and evaluating the performance of this system through effective implementation of station monitoring programs. This five year review on the Emergency Diesel Generator System was undertaken to assess the licensee staff's efforts in monitoring for system degradation due to aging aspects.
During the reviews, the inspectors determined whether the licensee staff's actions were in compliance with the facility's CAP and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B requirements. Specifically, the inspectors determined if licensee personnel were identifying plant issues at the proper threshold, entering the plant issues into the station's CA P in a timely manner, and assigning the appropriate prioritization for resolution of the issues. The inspectors also determined whether the licensee staff assigned the appropriate investigation method to ensure the proper determination of root, apparent, and contributing causes. The inspectors also evaluated the timeliness and effectiveness of CAs for selected issue reports, completed investigations, and NRC findings, including NCVs.
b. (1) Assessment Issues were generally being identified at a low threshold, evaluated appropriately, and corrected in the CAP. Workers were familiar with the CAP and felt comfortable raising Effectiveness of Problem Identification
5 Enclosure concerns. This was evident by the large number of CAP items generated annually
- which were reasonably distributed across the various departments. A shared, computerized database was used for creating individual reports and for subsequent management of the processes of issue evaluation and response. These processes included determining the issue
's significance, addressing such matters as regulatory compliance and reporting, and assigning any actions deemed necessary or appropriate.
The inspector s determined that the station was generally effective at trending low level issues to prevent larger issues from developing. The licensee also used the CAP to document instances w here previous CAs were ineffective or were inappropriately closed.
As a result of an observation from the 2009 PI&R Inspection that found deficiencies in security officers
' knowledge on initiating Issue Requests, the inspectors specifically asked security officers if they had received some form of training or instruction on entering issues into the licensee's computer
-based CAP. All security officers interviewed responded that training/instruction had been provided. Additionally, the officers stated that there was a laminated instruction card available at each computer workstation with step
-by-step instructions on how to initiate issue reports.
The inspector s noted that since the 2009 PI&R Inspection, the Security organization had generated approximately 2,100 Issue/Action Reports. From these 2,100 issues , 11 trend IRs were initiated. By comparison, the Training organization generated approximately 750 IRs and 13 trend IRs during the same period. The Training Department is about one fourth the size of the Security Department. Although the Security Department meets the requirements for quarterly trending (LS
-AA-125-1005), the inspector felt that, based on numbers alone, the Security organization should be identifying/initiating more trend IRs. It may be prudent for all departments to examine their trending program to ensure trends or potential trends are being identified.
Observation During review of work order (WO) 01277109 Task ID 1, "Replace Grounded 'B' RR
[Reactor Recirculation]
Pump Motor," referenced from action AR 00988866, "RR B Motor Change Out Spreader Beam NDE INSP Report Missing," the inspectors identified that contrary to WO 01277109 guidance, the licensee had inappropriately marked
'N/A' [Not Applicable]
on step 4.2 of Task ID 1 and step 4.3 of Task ID 14 in WO 01277109. These procedure steps required inspection and supervisory oversight of rigging devices and should not have been marked 'N/A'. However, an earlier procedure step had accomplished the same function.
Failure to Follow Work Order Instructions The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to follow instructions in Step 4.2 of Task ID 1 and Step 4.3 of Task ID 14 in WO 01277109 is a violation of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," which requires, in part, that activities affecting quality be performed in accordance with instructions, procedures, and drawings appropriate to the circumstance. Instructions, procedures or drawings shall include appropriate quantitative or qualitative acceptance criteria for determining that important activities have been satisfactorily accomplished.
The licensee subsequently addressed this issue of failure to follow WO instructions in the CAP as AR 1223512, "(NRC Identified) Issue Identified with WO Documentation."
6 Enclosure This failure to comply with the requirements of Title 10 CF R 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy.
No findings were identified.
Findings (2) The inspectors concluded that the station was generally effective at prioritizing issues commensurate with their safety significance. The inspectors observed that the majority of issues identified were of low-level and were either closed to trend, closed to actions taken, or characterized at a level appropriate for a condition evaluation. Issues were being appropriately screened by both the Station Oversight Committee (SOC) and Management Review Committee (MRC). There were no items in the operations, engineering, or maintenance backlogs that were risk
-significant, individually or collectively.
Effectiveness of Prioritization and Evaluation of Issues The inspectors concluded that the station's evaluation of issues was not always thorough and there ha d been degradation in this area of Clinton Power Station's CAP. Specifically, there were several instances where the CAs associated with ARs were not adequate or not appropriate for the circumstances. This was evidenced by two minor violations and two finding s identified during this inspection.
Observations During review of AR No. 0092284, "NDE Inspection for Strongback Is Not Identified," the inspectors identified that the licensee's CA to resolve this AR was to revise Exelon procedure MA
-AA-716-021, "Periodic Inspection of Rigging Equipment." The inspectors verified that procedure MA
-AA-716-021(revision 2) was indeed revised to identify the special lifting device inspection requirements of ANSI N14.6
-1978Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N14.6</br></br>-1978" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., "American National Standard for Special Lifting Devices for Shipping Containers Weighing 10,000 Pounds (4500 kg) or More for Nuclear Materials." However, subsequent to this revision, the licensee made another revision to procedure MA
-AA-716-021 (revision 3), which essentially removed ANSI N14.6
-1978Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N14.6</br></br>-1978" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. requirements for periodic inspection of special lifting devices from the procedure. The licensee maintain ed that upon evaluation at the time of revising MA
-A A-716-021, Rev. 2, the licensee determined that the special lifting device periodic inspection requirements as described in ANSI N
-14.6-1978 would be more appropriately captured in equipment specific documents such as Preventative Maintenance Requests (PMR Qs) and vendor specific work orders. Upon review of these special lifting device (equipment specific) documents, the inspectors identified that the licensee had not adequately included the ANSI N14.6 requirements into these documents. Specifically, the inspection requirements and periodicity of inspection of special lifting devices was not adequately addressed in these equipment specific documents.
Failure to Adequately Maintain Regulatory Requirements in Design Basis Procedures and Instructions
7 Enclosure The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to have adequate procedures/documents for inspection of special lifting devices per ANSI Code N14.6-1978 is a violation of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," which requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis, as defined in 10 CFR 50.2 and as specified in the license application, for those structures, systems, and components to which this appendix applies are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions.
The licensee generated AR 1224057 , "Submit Service Requests to revise PMRQs 156877 & 156886 to be Consistent with the Requirements from ANSI N14.6. Document Service Request Approval and PMRQ Changes Results as Closure, and Create Additional Actions as Required
," to revise the equipment specific documents, such that they adequately capture the appropriate ANSI N14.6 requirements for periodic inspection of special lifting devices.
This failure to comply with the requirements of Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy.
The inspectors identified a minor violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to demonstrate by calculation that the Technical Specifications (TS) upper voltage limits for the emergency diesel generator (EDG) surveillance test s were adequate to support operability of all safety-related loads. Specifically, the licensee failed to provide adequate evaluation for AR 670088670088"Non-Conservative TS for 4.16 kV Vital Bus Voltage," initiated in 2007 during a Component Design Basis Inspection (CDBI) self-assessment. The self
-assessment raised a concern regarding the upper limit for the 4.16 kV safety-related bus voltage of 4580 volts as being non-conservative. The maximum analytical limit in the design calculation was 4454 volts due to potential overvoltage on the 120 volt components. The AR evaluation concluded that the current administrative limit of 4300 volts in the surveillance procedures was adequate to limit the safety-related bus voltages to ensure their safety function. However, the inspectors determined that the licensee's evaluation failed to correctly address the concern regarding the non
-conservative TS voltage limits. The current design basis analysis did not support the TS upper voltage limit (4580 volts) for the safety-related buses. The licensee entered this issue into their CAP as AR 1226340 , "Maximum Steady State Voltage for TS 3.8.1 Nonconservative
." Failure to Demonstrate by Calculation Operability of Safety-Related Loads When Powered from the EDGs This failure to comply with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," constitutes a violation of minor significance that is not subject to enforcement action in accordance with the NRC
(1) Findings Introduction
- The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," for the licensee's failure to account for the cable resistance in immediate operability Failure to Account for Cable Resistance in Operability Determinations
8 Enclosure determinations. Specifically, on four different occasions, the licensee failed to account for the cable resistance when determining the maximum allowable circuit resistance to ensure that adequate minimum voltage was available for the trip coils associated with the 4.16 KV buses.
Description
- On the following four different occasions, during the performance of CPS 9333.20 and CPS 9333.30, "4.16 kV Degraded Voltage Trip Functional Test," for Division I and Division II respectively, contact resistance for the undervoltage (UV) relays w as found unacceptable. UV relays 227X1
-21A1-2 and 227X1
-21B1-2 were found to have higher than expected resistance readings across the closed contacts used to trip the Reserve Auxiliary Transformer (RAT) Feed Breaker upon initiation of a degraded voltage signal.
Typically, closed contact readings should read significantly less than 1 ohm.
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on May 14, 2009, contacts between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1
-21B1-2 read approximately 3.6 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was operable and would perform its function.
This issue was documented in AR 919673919673
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on July 15, 2009, contact between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1
-21B1-2 again showed higher contact readings; anywhere from 14 to 48 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was inoperable and subsequently, the associated emergency diesel generator was also declared inoperable. This issue was documented in AR 947824947824
During the performance of 9333.20 on July 30, 2009, contact between 11 and 20 on relay 227X1
-21A1-2 read approximately 2.43 ohms. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was operable. This issue was documented in AR 947581947581
During the performance of CPS 9333.30 on December 17, 2009, contacts between 4 and 5 on relay 227X1
-21B1-2 again showed higher contact resistance readings of 19.4 ohms across the contacts. Immediate operability determined that the trip coil was inoperable. This issue was documented in AR 1006888.
The operability determination in all four occasions listed above was based on a simplified calculation showing that as long as the resistance between the contacts was less than 13.1 ohms, then adequate voltage of greater than 70 Vdc would be available for the trip coil to perform its function in a worst case scenario. The inspectors noticed that this acceptance criterion for the maximum contact resistance was not listed in the surveillance procedure CPS 9333.20 or CPS 9333.30. The inspectors also noticed that the equation used in the simplified calculation that determined the maximum acceptable resistance between the contacts did not account for the cable resistance for the control cables associated with the trip coil control circuitry. Subsequent to the inspector identification of this deficiency, the licensee identified the length of the cables associated with these affected circuits as a total of 860 feet and 1114 feet for Division I and II respectively. The licensee recalculated the maximum acceptable resistance value using the cable length/resistance and determined that the original calculated value of 13.1 ohms was reduced by 2.07 ohms and 2.7 ohms for Division I and II respectively.
9 Enclosure The inspectors determined that the new calculated values for the maximum resistance between the contact would not have changed the past operability determinations for the above four occasions. In addition, the licensee's two Equipment Apparent Cause Evaluations (EACEs), which were performed for AR 947581947581and AR 1006888, also determined that the apparent cause of the high contact resistance readings was due to the improper measuring technique and not actual degraded relay contact.
Analysis:
The inspectors determined that the failure to account for the cable resistance in four different operability determinations was a performance deficiency warranting a significance evaluation. The performance deficiency was determined to be more t han minor because the finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of design control and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically
, on two of the four immediate operability determinations, the licensee failed to ensure that adequate voltage would be available for the trip coils when the contact resistance for the second level under
-voltage relays was reading higher than expected. The inspectors performed a Phase 1 SDP review of this finding using the guidance provided in IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." In accordance with Table 4a, "Characterization Worksheet for IE, MS, and BI Cornerstones," the inspectors determined that this finding was a design deficiency confirmed not to result in loss of operability or functionality. Specifically, the licensee was able to demonstrate that the operability calls that were previously made, when the operability of the second level under
-voltage relays was in question, were still acceptable when the cable resistance was added.
The inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross
-cutting aspect of human performance, Decision Making. Specifically, the licensee failed to use conservative assumptions in decision making affecting the operability of the second level under
-voltage relays when conditions adverse to quality were identified. (IMC 0310 H.1(b)).
Cross-Cutting Aspects Enforcement
- Title 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, "Design Control," requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis are correctly translated into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions.
Contrary to the above, in 2009, on four d ifferent occasions, the licensee failed to ensure that applicable regulatory requirements and design basis related to second level UV relay circuits were correctly translated into calculations used in immediate operability determinations. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that the cable resistance was accounted for when determining the maximum allowable circuit resistance to ensure that adequate minimum voltage was available for trip coils associated with the 4.16 kV buses. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and it was entered into the licensee's CAP as AR 01223508, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
-01, Failure to Account for Cable Resistance in Operability Determinations
). The licensee entered this into their CAP as AR s 1226340 and 1224313.
10 Enclosure (2) Failure to Maintain a Quality Record as Evidence of an Activity Affecting Quality of Safety-Related Equipment Due to Inappropriate Corrective Actions The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and a NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII , "Quality Assurance Records," for the licensee's failure to maintain sufficient quality records that provide evidence of activities affecting quality of safety-related equipment.
Introduction During review of AR 00988866 , "RR 'B' Motor Change out Spreader Beam NDE INSP Report Missing," the inspectors identified that the licensee did not have in their completed work order documents the NDE report that is required to qualify the spreader beam used to lift the reactor recirculation motor during the change out process in the drywell. The NDE of the critical welds of the spreader beam, which is considered a special lifting device
, is required by ANSI N14.6
-1978Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI N14.6</br></br>-1978" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., "American National Standard for Special Lifting Devices for Shipping Containers Weighing 10,000 Pounds (4500 kg) or More for Nuclear Materials," prior to each use.
Description AR 00988866 dated November 4, 2009
, states that the NDE was performed on the spreader beam prior to use in lifting the reactor recirculation 'B' motor, however no record of the NDE existed in the completed work order documents. The licensee proposed three recommended actions in A R 00988866 as resolution of this CR: 1) Personnel who were involved should search their working areas to locate the missing NDE inspection report, 2) Duplicate report may be generated based on recollection of the inspection, 3)
Perform NDE inspection for the used spreader beam again and document the results per this AR (if #1 and #2 are not feasible). On November 23, 2009 , the missing NDE report was recreated based on recollection from memory of the individual who conducted the examination and approved by licensee corporate NDE.
Upon review and further questioning from the inspectors, the licensee attempted to find the missing original NDE report. After extensive searching, the licensee did find the missing original NDE report dated October 18, 2009, which differed in certain parameters from the recreated NDE report dated November 23, 2009.
The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to maintain a quality record documenting an NDE on safety-related equipment due to inappropriate CA s is a performance deficiency that impacted the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone.
Analysis The inspectors determined that this performance deficiency was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, failure to maintain a quality record as evidence of an activity affecting quality of safety-related equipment due to inappropriate disposition of CA s pertaining to missing/lost quality records
, could become a more significant safety concern. Absent NRC identification, the licensee would deem it acceptable practice to recreate from memory, quality records of activities that affect quality of safety-related equipment in lieu of more appropriate CAs available to the licensee.
The inspectors completed a significance determination, in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1
- Initial Screening 11 Enclosure and Characterization of Findings," Table 4a for the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone. Based on answering 'no' to each of the Phase 1 screening questions identified in the Mitigation Systems Cornerstone column of Table 4a, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance. Specifically, this finding did not represent an actual loss of any safety function of the Mitigation Systems.
This finding has a cross
-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Resources because the licensee did not ensure complete, accurate and up
-to-date design documentation, procedures, and work packages, and correct labeling of components. (IMC 0310 P.1(d
)) Cross-Cutting Aspects Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII, "Quality Assurance Records," requires, in part, that sufficient records shall be maintained to furnish evidence of activities affecting quality. The records shall include at least the following:
Operating logs and the results of reviews, inspections, tests, audits, monitoring of work performance, and materials analyses. The records shall also include closely
-related data such as qualifications of personnel, procedures, and equipment.
Inspection and test records shall, as a minimum, identify the inspector or data recorder, the type of observation, the results, the acceptability, and the action taken in connection with any deficiencies noted.
Records shall be identifiable and retrievable.
Consistent with applicable regulatory requirements, the applicant shall establish requirements concerning record retention, such as duration, location, and assigned responsibility.
Enforcement Contrary to the above requirements, on November 23, 2009 , during resolution of AR 00988866 , "RR B Motor Change out Spreader Beam NDE INSP Report Missing," the licensee approved a decision to recreate from recollection of memory the missing NDE report and
, therefore , failed to maintain a sufficient quality record providing evidence of the NDE.
Failure to maintain a sufficient record that provides evidence of the NDE affecting quality of the safety-related spreader beam was a violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII. Because this violation was of very low safety significance and was entered int o the CAP , this violation is being treated as a n NCV consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
-02 Failure to Maintain Quality Record as Evidence of Activity Affecting Quality of Safety-Related Equipment). The licensee entered this issue into the CAP as AR 1223723.
(3) The effectiveness of corrective actions for the items reviewed by the inspectors was generally appropriate for the identified issues. Over the two year period encompassed by the inspection, the inspectors identified no significant examples where problems recurred.
The inspectors did identify one weakness associated with the station's use of EFRs to evaluate Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence (CAPR). While reviewing Root Cause Evaluations performed since the last biennial PI&R inspection in 2009, the inspectors identified six examples where Clinton Power Station failed to perform EFRs as required by the station's CAP procedures.
Effectiveness of Corrective Actions
12 Enclosure (1) Findings Failure to Perform Effectiveness Review Inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance with an associated NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings." The licensee failed to perform an EFR to ensure that CAs taken to prevent recurrence of a significant condition adverse to quality were actually effective to preclude repetition.
Introduction Inspectors performed a review of the licensee's CAP with a focus, in particular, on how significant conditions adverse to quality are addressed. Exelon procedure LS
-AA-120, "Issue Identification and Screening Process," defines a significant condition adverse to quality to include "severe operating abnormalities or large deviations from expected plant performance of safe ty-related structures, systems, or components; [and] "events" such as described in the plant Technical Specifications." 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criteria XVI requires, in part, that "In the case of significant conditions adverse to quality the measures shall ensure that the cause of the condition is determined and CA taken to preclude repetition." LS
-AA-125, Revision 15, "Corrective Action Program Procedure," Step 1.3 states that "significant conditions adverse to quality and conditions adverse to quality are resolved through direct action, the implementation of CAPRs and Corrective Actions (CAs)."
Discussion Inspectors then focused their review upon how the licensee identifies CAPRs to resolve significant conditions adverse to quality. The licensee's method to accomplish this was through its highest level of investigation, a Root Cause
Analysis.
During a general review of the licensee's Root Cause Reports completed within the previous two years, inspectors identified six examples where the licensee failed to follow it s processes for correcting significant conditions adverse to quality
.
On October 23, 2009
, the licensee completed Root Cause Report (RCR) 972235, "Valve Packing Failure inside Drywell Resulted in Plant Shutdown Due to Increasing Unidentified Leakage Rate." The conclusion of the licensee's report was that there were two root causes for the plant shutdown event: 1) That the 1E51F063 valve stem was off center with the stuffing b ox with the potential to cause packing side loading and accelerated loss of packing load, and 2) Inadequate work instruction did not require the packing in 1E51F063 to be torqued to the as
-left value from the original installation. The investigation also identified two CAPRs, one to address each root cause identified. Licensee procedure LS
-AA-125-1001, "Root Cause Analysis Manual," Revision 8, Attachment 12 identifies the attributes of a CAPR; specifically, "CAPRs are intended to address the root cause(s)in a manner to prevent recurrence, therefore, CAPRs should have the following attributes: specific, measurable, accountable, reasonable, timely, effective, reviewable, actionable, linked to a root cause, [etc]." RCR 972235 was approved by the licensee with the EFR portion blank, other than the statement that "An Effectiveness Review to address the effectiveness of the Root Cause CA is not necessary. The root cause is limited to a single valve, 1E51F063, with an off center stem to stuffing box condition.
The work order to investigate and correct the condition is sufficient assurance the condition is corrected and will no longer cause accelerated loss of packing load." This statement addresses only one of the two identified root causes 13 Enclosure and also appears contrary to the licensee's procedural guidance that a CAPR should be measurable and reviewable. After questions from inspectors, the licensee determined that its MRC had approved this RCR with comments to be incorporated, one of which was to add EFRs for the CAPRs. This action was later closed without initiating any EFR.
Further review by inspectors identified five additional examples where the licensee failed to follow their procedures with respect to CAPRs and EFRs.
1. RCR 979700, "1B33C001B: RR B Trip - Resulting in Reactor Scram," identified a Special Plant Condition as a CAPR which included the instruction to generate additional actions as needed and include the identified Root Cause, Extent of Condition/Cause, CAPRs, and EFR. No EFR was ever created.
2. RCR 1017724, "Contract Employee Contaminated in Drywell," identified one root cause, one CAPR, and did include one EFR. However, this EFR was performed to address a separate CA and not the CAPR which was identified.
3. RCR 1023530, "Gate Seal Leakage during Containment Isolation Valve System Functional Test," identified two root causes and two CAPRs. An EFR was assigned to the first CAPR and none was assigned to the second. However, on April 19, 2011
, AR 1204691 was written by the licensee's Nuclear Oversight (NOS) organization which identified this omission of a required EFR.
In this AR, NOS stated that "
failing to create and document individual EFRs could result in not identifying whether a single CAPR effectively resolved an identified cause." At the time of inspection the RCR was provided in final form to inspectors with no correction made for this identification from NOS.
4. RCR 1147568, "Re
-Evaluation Exam Provided Did Not Meet Expectations," identified one root cause and two CAPRs. The licensee assigned two EFRs to one of the CAPRs, however the EFR was marked "N/A" for the other CAPR which was identified.
5. RCR 1157980, "WANO Identified Area for Improvement for Relays and Power Supplies," identified two root causes, one CAPR and assigned two EFRs to be completed. However, these two EFRs were assigned to CAs and not the identified CAPR. Notably, in the EFR section of this report a preface was added which stated "There is no specific EFR action for the CAPR," and "no specific effectiveness criteria can be developed.
Therefore no specific EFR action is to be completed.
This was reviewed with and approved by MRC."
The inspectors determined that the licensee's failure to perform EFR s which verify that CAs taken for significant conditions adverse to quality successfully prevent their reoccurrence was a performance deficiency warranting a significance evaluation. The finding was of more than minor significance because it was similar to Example 4a in IMC 0612, "Power Inspection Reports," Appendix E, "Examples of Minor Issues," in that the licensee routinely failed to perform EFR evaluations of CAs taken to prevent recurrence of significant conditions adverse to quality. The inspectors performed a Phase 1 SDP review of this finding using the guidance provided in IMC 0609, Attachment 0609.04, "Phase 1
- Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings." Analysis 14 Enclosure In accordance with Table 4a, "Characterization Worksheet for IE [Initiating Events], MS [Mitigating Systems], and BI [Barrier Integrity] Cornerstones
," the inspectors determined that this finding was a licensee performance deficiency of very low safety significance (Green) due to answering 'no' to all questions under the Initiating Events Cornerstone column.
Inspectors concluded that this finding affected the cross
-cutting aspect of problem identification and resolution. Specifically, the licensee's CAP did not thoroughly evaluate problems to include, for significant problems, conducting EFRs of CAs to ensure that problems are resolved. (IMC 0310 P.1(c)) Cross-Cutting Aspects 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criteria V, "Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," requires, in part, that activities 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 drawings. Licensee procedure LS
-AA-125, "Corrective Action Program Procedure," Step 1.3 states that "significant conditions adverse to quality and conditions adverse to quality are resolved through direct action, the implementation of Corrective Actions to Prevent Recurrence and Corrective Actions." Step 4.4.8 of this procedure states "Perform Effectiveness Reviews in accordance with LS
-AA-125-1004, Effectiveness Review Manual." Revisions 4 and 5 of LS
-AA-125-1004, "Effectiveness Review Manual," in effect during this time period of review, contain requirements that "all CAPRs are to be evaluated in the EFR" and to "Initiate Attachment 1, 'Individual Effectiveness Review' for each of the CAPRs identified."
Enforcement Contrary to the above, on the six separate occasions previously described, the licensee failed to perform EFR s in accordance with its procedures to verify that CAs taken for significant conditions adverse to quality successfully prevent ed their reoccurrence
. Because of the very low safety significance, this violation is being treated as a n NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy (NCV 05000461/201 1 00 8-0 3 , Failure to Perform Effectiveness Review
). The licensee entered this violation into its CAP as ARs 01221616, 01221661, and 01223806.
.2 a. Assessment of the Use of Operating Experience
(OE) The inspectors reviewed the licensee's implementation of the facility's OE program. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed implementing operating experience program procedures, attended CAP meetings to observe the use of OE information, and completed evaluations of OE issues and events. The inspectors' review was to determine whether the licensee was effectively integrating OE experience into the performance of daily activities, whether evaluations of issues were proper and conducted by qualified personnel, whether the licensee's program was sufficient to prevent future occurrences of previous industry events, and whether the licensee effectively used the information in developing departmental assessments and facility audits. The inspectors also assessed if CAs, as a result of OE experience, were identified and implemented in an effective and timely manner.
Inspection Scope
15 Enclosure b. In general, OE was effectively used at the station. The inspectors observed that OE was discussed as part of the daily station and pre-job briefings. Industry OE was effectively disseminated across the various plant departments and no issues were identified during the inspectors' review of licensee OE evaluations. During interviews, several licensee personnel commented favorably on the use of OE in their daily activities.
Assessment No findings were identified.
Findings
.3 a. Assessment of Self
-Assessments and Audits The inspectors assessed the licensee staff's ability to identify and enter issues into the CA program, prioritize and evaluate issues, and implement effective CAs, through efforts from departmental assessments and audits.
Inspection Scope b. The inspector s concluded that self
-assessments, NOS audits, and other assessments were typically effective at identifying most issues. The inspector s concluded that these audits and self
-assessments were generally completed in a methodical manner by personnel knowledgeable in the subject area.
Corrective Actions associated with the identified issues were implemented commensurate with their safety significance.
Assessment There were a few issues identified by the inspectors that were not identified during station self-assessments and/o r audits. NOS previously identified one of the RCE's that did not include EFRs for the CAPRs. However, NOS did not identify the other five instances where EFRs were not included to review CAPRs. Additionally, as preparation for this inspection, an assessment team comprised of Clinton employees along with one Quad Cities and one Robinson Nuclear Plant employee performed a focused self assessment (FASA) on Clinton's CAP. The FASA identified no strengths, 19 recommendations, and 21 standards deficiencies.
However, the FASA did not identify any of the issues and weaknesses that were identified by the NRC inspection team. Additionally, the FASA did not identify the decline in performance of Clinton's CAP that was identified by the NRC inspection team.
No findings were identified.
Findings
.4 a. Assessment of Safety
-Conscious Work Environment The inspectors assessed the licensee's safety-conscious work environment (SCWE) through reviews of the facility's employee concerns program (ECP)implementing procedures, discussions with ECP coordinators, interviews with personnel from various Inspection Scope
16 Enclosure departments, and reviews of issue reports. The inspectors also reviewed the results of licensee safety culture surveys.
b. The inspectors determined that the plant staff were aware of the importance of having a strong SCWE and expressed a willingness to raise safety issues. No one interviewed had experienced retaliation for safety issues raised or knew of anyone who had failed to raise issues. All persons interviewed had an adequate knowledge of the CAP process.
These results were similar with the findings of the licensee's safety culture surveys.
Based on these limited interviews, the inspectors concluded that there was no evidence of an unacceptable SCWE.
Assessment The inspectors determined that the ECP process was being effectively implemented. The inspectors noted that the licensee had appropriately investigated and taken constructive actions to address potential cases of harassment and intimidation for raising issues.
No findings were identified.
Findings
4OA6
.1 Management Meetings
On June 3, 2011, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. B. K. Taber, and other members of the licensee staff. The licensee acknowledged the issues presented. The inspectors confirmed that none of the potential report input discussed was considered proprietary.
