==INSPECTION RESULTS==
Observation                                         71152 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues The inspectors reviewed two adverse condition analyses performed on the March 13, 2018, loss of offsite power due to the startup transformer failure. The startup transformer lockout was the result of an internal arc from three high impendence faults. The inspectors reviewed the corrective actions taken to address the issues and concluded that both analyses were of sufficient technical depth to understand adverse weather challenges to the switchyard. The corrective action to replace the startup transformer addressed concerns of potential transformer degradation caused by the faults, and a review of past storm conditions validated Pilgrims severe weather procedure requirements.

Inspectors reviewed the causal factors related to site prioritization of work and management practices to focus resources on the correct items. As part of the backlog reduction plan, extensive walk downs of systems were performed by operators and engineers, as well as review of condition reports for adverse conditions. Inspectors identified that Entergy, in an effort to reduce the backlog numbers, incorrectly categorized several condition reports as non-adverse. Inspectors sampled 19 random condition reports from a list of over 500 condition reports downgraded from adverse to non-adverse, and identified nine as being adverse conditions per EN-LI-102. EN-LI-102, Section 3.0.2, defines an adverse condition as affecting a) design basis, b) licensing basis, c) regulations and commitments, and f)equipment required to support safety-related equipment as defined by the functionality process in EN-LI-104, Self-Assessment and Benchmark Process. By placing condition reports in a less significant category, less stringent controls are in place to ensure timely corrective actions are made, in accordance with EN-LI-102. Corrective actions 5, 6, and 7 of CR-PNP-2017-8678 directed the cancellation of non-adverse corrective actions greater than 180 days old, unless completion is deemed appropriate by the responsible manager.

Therefore, in accordance with IMC 0612, Issue Screening, these performance deficiencies were not considered more-than-minor because, each cancelled work order, by itself, did not adversely affect a cornerstone objective, could not be considered a precursor to a significant event, did not affect a performance indicator result, and if left uncorrected would not have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Entergy entered the items into the corrective action program and inspectors verified valid work orders were written.

PLANT STATUS

The unit began the inspection period at full power. On August 14, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 40 percent to perform a thermal backwash of the main condenser, and returned the unit to full power on August 15, 2018. On August 17, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 40 percent as a result of degrading main condenser parameters and elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures. On August 18, 2018, the unit was returned to approximately 90 percent. On August 19, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 45 percent due to elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures, and returned the unit to approximately 90 percent on August 24, 2018. On August 27, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 40 percent due to elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures, and returned the unit to approximately 90 percent on August 28, 2018. On August 30, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 40 percent due to elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures, and returned the unit to approximately 95 percent power on September 6, 2018. On September 7, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 70 percent due to elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures, and returned the unit to approximately 90 percent power on September 11, 2018. On September 12, 2018, operators lowered power to approximately 45 percent due to elevated ultimate heat sink temperatures, and returned the unit to full power on September 25, 2018. The unit remained at or near full power for the remainder of the inspection period.

INSPECTION SCOPES

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

-

Radiological field surveys 92702 - Follow Up on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternate Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders

During the week of July 9, 2018, the inspectors performed an onsite review of Pilgrims records related to corrective actions taken in response to a Severity Level IV Notice of Violation (NOV) issued to Entergy. On February 27, 2018, the NRC issued a Severity Level IV NOV of a condition of its NRC license as specified in the facility technical specifications (VIO 05000293/2018014, NRC Office of Investigation Report 1-2017-011, ADAMS Accession No. ML18052B084). Specifically, the inspectors reviewed procedures, corrective action program documents, and casual evaluations. The inspectors also conducted interviews with Entergy staff within Maintenance and Operations discussing the high pressure coolant injection isolation event and the corrective actions taken by Entergy.

INSPECTION RESULTS

Observation 71152 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues The inspectors reviewed two adverse condition analyses performed on the March 13, 2018, loss of offsite power due to the startup transformer failure. The startup transformer lockout was the result of an internal arc from three high impendence faults. The inspectors reviewed the corrective actions taken to address the issues and concluded that both analyses were of sufficient technical depth to understand adverse weather challenges to the switchyard. The corrective action to replace the startup transformer addressed concerns of potential transformer degradation caused by the faults, and a review of past storm conditions validated Pilgrims severe weather procedure requirements.

Observation 71152 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues The inspectors reviewed the root cause analysis and corrective actions taken to address increased vibrations on the high pressure coolant injection main pump outboard bearing in the horizontal direction. The inspectors concluded that the analysis was of sufficient technical depth to identify the causes of the increased vibration and that the corrective actions to add mass to change the resonance frequency of the pump addressed the problem and reduced vibrations to within the expected range.

Observation 71152 Annual Follow-up of Selected Issues The inspectors evaluated two of Entergys common cause analysis (CR-PNP-2017-8678 and CR-PNP-2017-9140) to review corrective actions to address exceeding the NRC threshold for cross-cutting aspects in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution. Inspectors reviewed corrective actions, conducted interviews, and reviewed a sampling of condition reports and work orders to verify the corrective action program was being implemented as required by EN-LI-102, Corrective Action Program.

Inspectors reviewed the causal factors related to site prioritization of work and management practices to focus resources on the correct items. As part of the backlog reduction plan, extensive walk downs of systems were performed by operators and engineers, as well as review of condition reports for adverse conditions. Inspectors identified that Entergy, in an effort to reduce the backlog numbers, incorrectly categorized several condition reports as non-adverse. Inspectors sampled 19 random condition reports from a list of over 500 condition reports downgraded from adverse to non-adverse, and identified nine as being adverse conditions per EN-LI-102. EN-LI-102, Section 3.0.2, defines an adverse condition as affecting a) design basis, b) licensing basis, c) regulations and commitments, and f)equipment required to support safety-related equipment as defined by the functionality process in EN-LI-104, Self-Assessment and Benchmark Process. By placing condition reports in a less significant category, less stringent controls are in place to ensure timely corrective actions are made, in accordance with EN-LI-102. Corrective actions 5, 6, and 7 of CR-PNP-2017-8678 directed the cancellation of non-adverse corrective actions greater than 180 days old, unless completion is deemed appropriate by the responsible manager.

Inspectors then validated that the items categorized incorrectly as non-adverse had valid work orders in the work management system. Forty of approximately 500 work orders were reviewed, and only two items were found incorrectly classified as non-adverse with cancelled work orders. One was for a non-safety-related fire protection valve that would not completely isolate and the other for a high energy line break barrier that was degraded. For both items the inspectors determined that the equipment was degraded but remained functional.

Therefore, in accordance with IMC 0612, Issue Screening, these performance deficiencies were not considered more-than-minor because, each cancelled work order, by itself, did not adversely affect a cornerstone objective, could not be considered a precursor to a significant event, did not affect a performance indicator result, and if left uncorrected would not have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Entergy entered the items into the corrective action program and inspectors verified valid work orders were written.

Observation 92702 Follow Up on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternate Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders The inspectors concluded that Entergy staff completed a timely and adequate evaluation to identify the causes of the traditional enforcement violation. Entergys corrective actions included additional observations by management of the Maintenance department, disciplinary action against the three Nuclear Controls Technicians involved in the event, and the Pilgrim Leadership Team developed and implemented a Human Performance Events Response Plan in April 2017. The Human Performance Events Response Plan consisted of four focus areas:

Organizational Alignment, Reinforcement of Expectations, Field Presence, and Culpability.

The inspectors concluded that Entergys actions were timely, appropriate, and sufficient to address the identified deficiency.

Failure to identify an Adverse Condition associated with elevated Standby Gas Treatment System accumulator leakage Cornerstone Significance Cross-Cutting Aspect Report Section Barrier Integrity Green NCV 05000293/2018003-01 Closed H.9 - Human Performance - Training 71111.19 The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation of Technical Specifications 3.7.B.1.c because Entergy exceeded the TS allowed outage time for the standby gas treatment system when the station did not identify an adverse condition associated with elevated air accumulator leakage in the system.

Description:

On June 26, 2018, the B train of SBGT was declared inoperable following a System Engineers identification of elevated air accumulator leakage above the calculated design limit of 1.99 psi/day, and Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.7.B.1.c was entered (CR-PNP-2018-5428). During plant operation, adequate air pressure must be available in the SBGT accumulators to reposition dampers and to maintain dampers in the correct position following cycling. If air pressure is reduced below the required limit, there may not be enough force to reposition and maintain the required position of dampers for the systems full mission time of 30 days. The B train was declared inoperable because when accumulator pressure is lost, dampers fail to a closed position. The A train of SBGT was not affected because the A train dampers that are required to maintain operability fail in the open position. As a result, the A train of SBGT maintains its ability to perform its specified safety function when accumulator pressure is lost. The leakage was addressed through the corrective action program and an Operations standing order (Standing Order 18-09) was developed as a corrective action, and made effective on June 29, 2018. The standing order stated that Operations has been tasked with real time evaluation of SBGT accumulator pressure drop tracking, and a spreadsheet for data entry and calculation was provided to the Operations Department.

On July 17, 2018, the B train of SBGT was again declared inoperable following identification of air accumulator leakage above the design limit contained in calculation M896, Capacity Increase Evaluation for SBGT Receivers, and LCO 3.7.B.1.c was entered. A seven day action statement to restore the inoperable train of SBGT to operable was also initiated. On July 23, 2018, day five of the seven day LCO action statement, while reviewing the Operations spreadsheet used for tracking and evaluating SBGT air accumulator leakage, NRC inspectors determined that, as directed by Standing Order 18-09, operators did not properly evaluate and identify an adverse condition: SBGT air accumulator leakage was elevated above the calculated design leakage limit on July 14, 2018, and a condition report had not been initiated to identify the condition.

During subsequent review of historical data, it was determined that the leak rate in the SBGT system exceeded the allowable rate on July 2, 2018. Therefore, the seven day LCO action statement was exceeded on July 9, 2018.

Entergy procedure EN-LI-102, Corrective Action Program, defines adverse condition as, in part, a general term which includes Conditions Adverse to Quality plus undesirable conditions related to design basis, licensing basis, and equipment required to support safety related equipment, among other things. EN-LI-102 also states that Employees and contractors are required to initiate CRs for Adverse Conditions.

Corrective Actions: Instructions detailing the evaluation of SBGT air accumulator leakage have been incorporated into station procedure 2.2.50, Standby Gas Treatment, Revision 76, and Entergy performed an Adverse Condition

Analysis.

Additionally, Licensee Event Report 2018-005-00, Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications Involving Standby Gas Treatment System Pneumatic Leakage Rate, was submitted on September 12, 2018.

Corrective Actions Reference: CR-PNP-2018-6103

Performance Assessment:

Performance Deficiency: Entergy personnel failed to identify an adverse condition associated with elevated air accumulator leakage in the SBGT system when readily available information indicated system degradation.

Screening: This performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the Human Performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone, and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events.

Significance: The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using IMC 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 3, Barrier Integrity Screening Questions. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the performance deficiency only represented a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided by the SBGT system.

Cross-Cutting Aspect: The cause of the finding was assigned a cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance - Training because the organization was not provided adequate training regarding the conduct of the additional monitoring directed for the SBGT system performance. [H.9]

Enforcement:

Violation: Technical Specifications 3.7.B.1, Standby Gas Treatment System, requires, in part, that when one train of the Standby Gas Treatment System is made or found to be inoperable for any reason, continued reactor operation is permissible only during the succeeding seven days providing that within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> all active components of the other standby gas treatment train are verified to be operable and the diesel generator associated with the operable train is operable. Additionally, Technical Specification 3.7.B.1.c states that if the system is not made fully operable within 7 days, reactor shutdown shall be initiated and the reactor shall be in cold shutdown within the next 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

Contrary to the above, on July 14, 2018, Entergy personnel failed to identify elevated air accumulator leakage and evaluate its effects on the SBGT system operability. Specifically, on July 14, 2018, a Senior Reactor Operator did not identify that the SBGT air accumulator leakage was elevated above the limits specified in design calculation M896, Capacity Increase Evaluation for SBGT Receivers. As a result, Entergy did not evaluate the operability of the system, and did not enter Technical Specification 3.7.B.1.c for one train of the SBGT system inoperable due to elevate system air accumulator leakage and did not take action to restore the system to service within seven days or to initiate a reactor shutdown and place the reactor in cold shutdown within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. On July 21, 2018, Entergy did not initiate a reactor shutdown, and the reactor was not in cold shutdown within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.

Disposition: This violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
