==INSPECTION RESULTS== | |||
Failure to Maintain Emergency Operating Procedures Cornerstone Significance Cross-cutting Aspect Report Section Mitigating Systems Green NCV 05000483/2018001-01 Closed | |||
[H.3]Human Performance, Change Management 71111.11 Licensed Operator Performance The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, "Procedures," for the licensee's failure to maintain emergency operating procedures for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
=====Description:===== | |||
On March 7, 2018, the inspectors performed an observation of licensed control room operators and reviewed the use of auxiliary feedwater pumps (AFW or AFPs) in Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs). The AFW system provides a reliable source of water to the steam generators and removes thermal energy from the reactor coolant system through the release of secondary steam to the atmosphere. The AFW pumps are comprised of two motor-driven (MD) pumps and one turbine-driven (TD) pump. Each pump has recirculation lines to provide a constant discharge pathway and prevent pump damage. These AFW pumps can be supplied with the following three suction sources: | |||
: (1) Condensate storage tank (CST) - non-safety-related and normally aligned | |||
: (2) Hardened CST (HCST) - non-safety-related | |||
: (3) Essential service water (ESW) - safety-related | |||
In their review of EOPS, the inspectors noted that the following continuous action step was found in several EOPs and titled AFW Supply Switchover Criteria: | |||
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 11.5 PSIG, THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment. | |||
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 2.75 PSIG, THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction. | |||
The inspectors reviewed EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, which states the following and accomplishes it in step 1 of the addendum: | |||
When the HCST is supplying AFW, ONLY the TDAFW will be used, since it can be aligned to recirc back to the HCST. Therefore, the MDAFPs will be placed in Pull-to-Lock prior to isolating MDAFP recirc lines back to the CST. | |||
The inspectors noted that EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction, Revision 3, did not restore the isolated and disabled motor-driven AFW pumps. Instead, EOP Addendum 19 refers only to the ESW valve lineup. As written, the discussed EOP addenda would leave the control room staff with only the turbine-driven AFW pump available. | |||
The inspectors then reviewed accident analysis including section 15.2.8, Feedwater System Pipe Break, of the Final Safety Analysis Report which states: | |||
For the auxiliary feedwater system, the worst case configuration has been used, i.e., only three intact steam generators receive auxiliary feedwater following the break... one motor-driven AFW pump to the intact steam generatorthe turbine-driven AFW pump has been assumed to fail... the second motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliverequally split to the two remaining intact steam generators... | |||
The inspectors noted that the accident analysis of Final Safety Analysis Report chapter 15 does not refer to use of the HCST and does not refer to operator action to manually un-isolate motor-driven AFW pumps to reach and maintain safe shutdown. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition for the AFW Supply Switchover Criteria continuous action steps and found it in the following EOPs: | |||
: (1) E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, Revision 19 | |||
: (2) E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, Revision 19 | |||
: (3) E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Revision 22 | |||
: (4) ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Revision 18 | |||
: (5) FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, Revision 18 | |||
The inspectors noted the HCST Alignment addendum was created in February 2016 and modified in October 2016 to the current Revision 1. The procedure review process noted the non-safety HCST is a useful water source prior to using the ESW... the HCST is maintained at a higher cleanliness. Further, the procedure review noted the HCST: | |||
does not have a recirculation line from the Motor Drive Aux Feed pumps to the HCST... EOP Add 42 allows for the alignment of the recirc valves and stops the Motor Drive Aux Feedwater Pumps to prevent possible damage from overheating. Since this overall modification has been evaluated previously, this procedure change does not require further 50.59 review. | |||
The inspectors concluded the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the EOPs placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines prior to aligning the safety-related suction source of essential service water. This configuration and operator actions are not supported by the accident analysis in the Final Safety Analysis Report. | |||
Further, the licensee did not provide an adequate procedure for restoring the motor-driven AFW pumps from this configuration. Since the continuous action steps are pervasive across EOPs, it is plausible that an operating crew would enact the AFW supply switchover actions prior to fully diagnosing the accident and contrary to the goal of the EOP they were utilizing. | |||
Corrective Actions: The licensee issued a night order clarifying the requirements for auxiliary feedwater in the EOPs and revised EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Reports 201801260 and 201801570. | |||
=====Performance Assessment:===== | |||
Performance Deficiency: The failure to maintain Emergency Operating Procedures for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources was a performance deficiency. | |||
Screening: This performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it adversely affected the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because | |||
: (1) the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system; | |||
: (2) the finding did not represent a loss of system and/or function; | |||
: (3) the finding did not represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time; and | |||
: (4) the finding does not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours. | |||
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with change management because the licensee failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee prioritized the motor-driven AFW pumps health due to a lack of recirculation ability over the accident analysis by not adequately screening the procedure changes into 50.59 review in 2016. | |||
=====Enforcement:===== | |||
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2. Section 6 of Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, requires procedures for combating emergencies and other significant events. The licensee established EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, in part, to meet the regulatory requirement. Step 1 of EOP Addendum 42 placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines. | |||
Contrary to the above, prior to March 7, 2018, the licensee failed to maintain procedures for combating emergencies and other significant events. Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. The licensee added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy. | |||
Unresolved Item (Closed) | |||
Possible Incorrect Screening of the Spent Fuel Pool Decay Heat Removal Key Safety Function URI 05000483/2016001-01 71111.05AQ Quarterly Inspection | |||
=====Description:===== | |||
In Unresolved Item 05000483/2016001-01, the inspectors documented an issue of concern with the licensees National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 805, Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light-Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants, non-power operations assessment. Specifically, the inspectors developed an issue of concern because the licensee screened the potential loss of spent fuel pool cooling from further consideration for any fire event during non-power operations based on adequate procedural guidance and time when the procedures would not maintain the fuel in a safe and stable condition. | |||
To address this unresolved item, the inspectors requested that the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) work with the Nuclear Energy Institute NFPA 805 Task Force in accordance with the NFPA 805 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Program to review and update the guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Non-Power Operations Clarifications, Revision 4. The inspectors documented this request in a memo, dated March 31, 2016 (ML16091A152). The updated guidance was issued in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5 on May 20, 2016 (ML17331B109). This revision was accepted by NRR staff in a memo, dated November 28, 2017 (ML17331B108). | |||
The revised guidance provided clarification for the treatment of spent fuel pool cooling during non-power operations. The revised guidance stated that, Spent fuel pool configurations are not considered to be risk-significant and are not treated as a higher risk evolution. In the approval memo, the NRR staff agreed with the revised guidance, stating, The NRC staff agrees that the loss of spent fuel pool cooling does not need to be considered a higher risk evolution. | |||
The licensee documented the non-power operations assessment in Calculation KC-26, Appendix 1, NFPA 805 Non-power Operations Assessment, Revision 3. The licensee performed this assessment based, in part, on guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 4. | |||
During the current inspection, the inspectors reviewed the licensees non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5. In accordance with the revised guidance, the licensee did not need to perform additional analyses (Steps F.2 and F.3. of FAQ 07-0040) associated with spent fuel pool cooling because the staff agreed that the normal fire protection program defense-in-depth actions provide reasonable assurance that the spent fuel pool remains less than boiling. Based on the licensees non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance, the inspectors determined that no performance deficiency existed. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Report 201600726 | |||
Observation 92702Followup on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternative Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders Discussion: The inspection team determined that the licensee had not: 1) adequately performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper operation; and 2) periodically performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper operation to maintain the operability of the offsite power sources. | |||
Since the issuance of the violation in 2014, the licensee had opportunities to perform a timing test of transformer XNB01 load tap changer (refueling outages in fall 2014 and spring 2016). | |||
Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved: The timing test of the XNBO1 load tap changer was successfully tested on October 20, 2017. Timing testing of the XNBO1 and XNB02 load tap changers will continue to be performed on a routine basis, going forward. | |||
Also, Callaway work management procedure will be revised to establish schedule dates for jobs associated with addressing NRC violations. Rescheduling jobs beyond the scheduled date would require justification as well as approval by management. The licensee will review any NRC violations received since October 2015 for jobs that are credited for restoring compliance. The basis for selecting October 2015 was that it coincided with the last time a comprehensive pre-Problem Identification and Resolution inspection self-assessment was performed. In that assessment, the timeliness of corrective actions for NRC violations prior to October 2015 was evaluated. Lessons learned in connection with this Notice of Violation will be communicated by station leadership. This will include expectations on identifying and adhering to the scheduled date for jobs addressing violations, as mentioned above. Both actions were complete by February 28, 2018. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the Notice of Violation along with corrective action documents. All findings were documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000483/2017007, ADAMS accession number ML17283A392. Notice of Violation 0500483/2017007-01 is closed. | |||
MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report. | |||
On April 4, 2018, the inspectors presented the integrated quarterly resident inspection results to Mr. Tim Herrmann, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff. | |||

aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous | |||
action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary | |||
feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting | |||
the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three | |||

The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, | |||
"Procedures," for the licensee's failure to maintain emergency operating procedures for | |||
aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous | |||
action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary | |||
feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting | |||
the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety | |||
related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety | |||
related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
Description: | |||
On March 7, 2018, the inspectors performed an observation of licensed control room | |||
operators and reviewed the use of auxiliary feedwater pumps (AFW or AFPs) in Emergency | |||
Operating Procedures (EOPs). The AFW system provides a reliable source of water to the | |||
steam generators and removes thermal energy from the reactor coolant system through the | |||
release of secondary steam to the atmosphere. The AFW pumps are comprised of two | |||
motor-driven (MD) pumps and one turbine-driven (TD) pump. Each pump has recirculation | |||
lines to provide a constant discharge pathway and prevent pump damage. These AFW | |||
pumps can be supplied with the following three suction sources: | |||
(1) Condensate storage tank (CST) - non-safety-related and normally aligned | |||
(2) Hardened CST (HCST) - non-safety-related | |||
(3) Essential service water (ESW) - safety-related | |||
In their review of EOPS, the inspectors noted that the following continuous action step was | |||
found in several EOPs and titled AFW Supply Switchover Criteria: | |||
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 11.5 PSIG, | |||
THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment. | |||
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 2.75 PSIG, | |||
THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction. | |||
The inspectors reviewed EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, which states the | |||
following and accomplishes it in step 1 of the addendum: | |||
When the HCST is supplying AFW, ONLY the TDAFW will be used, since it | |||
can be aligned to recirc back to the HCS | |||
: [[contact::T. Therefore]], the MDAFPs will be | |||
placed in Pull-to-Lock prior to isolating MDAFP recirc lines back to the | |||
CST. | |||
The inspectors noted that EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction, Revision 3, | |||
did not restore the isolated and disabled motor-driven AFW pumps. Instead, EOP | |||
Addendum 19 refers only to the ESW valve lineup. As written, the discussed EOP addenda | |||
would leave the control room staff with only the turbine-driven AFW pump available. | |||
The inspectors then reviewed accident analysis including section 15.2.8, Feedwater System | |||
Pipe Break, of the Final Safety Analysis Report which states: | |||
For the auxiliary feedwater system, the worst case configuration has been | |||
used, i.e., only three intact steam generators receive auxiliary feedwater | |||
following the break... one motor-driven AFW pump to the intact steam | |||
generatorthe turbine-driven AFW pump has been assumed to fail... the | |||
second motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliverequally split to the | |||
two remaining intact steam generators... | |||
The inspectors noted that the accident analysis of Final Safety Analysis Report chapter 15 | |||
does not refer to use of the HCST and does not refer to operator action to manually un-isolate | |||
motor-driven AFW pumps to reach and maintain safe shutdown. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition for the AFW Supply Switchover Criteria | |||
continuous action steps and found it in the following EOPs: | |||
(1) E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, Revision 19 | |||
(2) E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, Revision 19 | |||
(3) E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Revision 22 | |||
(4) ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Revision 18 | |||
(5) FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, Revision 18 | |||
The inspectors noted the HCST Alignment addendum was created in February 2016 and | |||
modified in October 2016 to the current Revision 1. The procedure review process noted the | |||
non-safety HCST is a useful water source prior to using the ESW... the HCST is | |||
maintained at a higher cleanliness. Further, the procedure review noted the HCST: | |||
does not have a recirculation line from the Motor Drive Aux Feed pumps to | |||
the HCST... EOP Add 42 allows for the alignment of the recirc valves and | |||
stops the Motor Drive Aux Feedwater Pumps to prevent possible damage | |||
from overheating. Since this overall modification has been evaluated | |||
previously, this procedure change does not require further 50.59 review. | |||
The inspectors concluded the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater | |||
suction sources. Specifically, the EOPs placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps | |||
in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines prior to aligning the | |||
safety-related suction source of essential service water. This configuration and operator | |||
actions are not supported by the accident analysis in the Final Safety Analysis Report. | |||
Further, the licensee did not provide an adequate procedure for restoring the motor-driven | |||
AFW pumps from this configuration. Since the continuous action steps are pervasive across | |||
EOPs, it is plausible that an operating crew would enact the AFW supply switchover actions | |||
prior to fully diagnosing the accident and contrary to the goal of the EOP they were utilizing. | |||
Corrective Actions: The licensee issued a night order clarifying the requirements for auxiliary | |||
feedwater in the EOPs and revised EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment. | |||
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Reports 201801260 and 201801570. | |||
Performance Assessment: | |||
Performance Deficiency: The failure to maintain Emergency Operating Procedures for | |||
aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources was a performance deficiency. | |||
Screening: This performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, | |||
because it adversely affected the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems | |||
Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that | |||
respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee | |||
added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater | |||
pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two | |||
non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related | |||
auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related | |||
suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization | |||
of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings | |||
At-Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012, the | |||
inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because | |||
(1) the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system; | |||
(2) the finding did not represent a loss of system and/or function; (3) the finding did not | |||
represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification | |||
allowed outage time; and (4) the finding does not represent an actual loss of function of one | |||
or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant | |||
in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours. | |||
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human | |||
performance associated with change management because the licensee failed to use a | |||
systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains | |||
the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee prioritized the motor-driven AFW pumps | |||
health due to a lack of recirculation ability over the accident analysis by not adequately | |||
screening the procedure changes into 50.59 review in 2016. | |||
Enforcement: | |||
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be | |||
established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended | |||
in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2. Section 6 of Appendix A to Regulatory | |||
Guide 1.33, Revision 2, requires procedures for combating emergencies and other significant | |||
events. The licensee established EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, in part, | |||
to meet the regulatory requirement. Step 1 of EOP Addendum 42 placed both motor-driven | |||
auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines. | |||
Contrary to the above, prior to March 7, 2018, the licensee failed to maintain procedures for | |||
combating emergencies and other significant events. Specifically, the licensee failed to | |||
maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. The licensee added | |||
continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in | |||
pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two | |||
non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related | |||
auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related | |||
suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis. | |||
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with | |||
Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy. | |||

Inspection | |||
Description: In Unresolved Item 05000483/2016001-01, the inspectors documented an issue | |||
of concern with the licensees National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 805, | |||
Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light-Water Reactor Electric Generating | |||
Plants, non-power operations assessment. Specifically, the inspectors developed an issue of | |||
concern because the licensee screened the potential loss of spent fuel pool cooling from | |||
further consideration for any fire event during non-power operations based on adequate | |||
procedural guidance and time when the procedures would not maintain the fuel in a safe and | |||
stable condition. | |||
To address this unresolved item, the inspectors requested that the Office of Nuclear Reactor | |||
Regulation (NRR) work with the Nuclear Energy Institute NFPA 805 Task Force in accordance | |||
with the NFPA 805 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Program to review and update the | |||
guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Non-Power Operations Clarifications, Revision 4. The inspectors | |||
documented this request in a memo, dated March 31, 2016 (ML16091A152). The updated | |||
guidance was issued in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5 on May 20, 2016 (ML17331B109). This | |||
revision was accepted by NRR staff in a memo, dated November 28, 2017 (ML17331B108). | |||
The revised guidance provided clarification for the treatment of spent fuel pool cooling during | |||
non-power operations. The revised guidance stated that, Spent fuel pool configurations are | |||
not considered to be risk-significant and are not treated as a higher risk evolution. In the | |||
approval memo, the NRR staff agreed with the revised guidance, stating, The NRC staff | |||
agrees that the loss of spent fuel pool cooling does not need to be considered a higher risk | |||
evolution. | |||
The licensee documented the non-power operations assessment in Calculation KC-26, | |||
Appendix 1, NFPA 805 Non-power Operations Assessment, Revision 3. The licensee | |||
performed this assessment based, in part, on guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 4. | |||
During the current inspection, the inspectors reviewed the licensees non-power operations | |||
assessment and the revised guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5. In accordance with the | |||
revised guidance, the licensee did not need to perform additional analyses (Steps F.2 | |||
and F.3. of FAQ 07-0040) associated with spent fuel pool cooling because the staff agreed | |||
that the normal fire protection program defense-in-depth actions provide reasonable | |||
assurance that the spent fuel pool remains less than boiling. Based on the licensees | |||
non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance, the inspectors determined that | |||
no performance deficiency existed. | |||

Discussion: The inspection team determined that the licensee had not: 1) adequately | |||
performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper | |||
operation; and 2) periodically performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap | |||
changer to ensure proper operation to maintain the operability of the offsite power sources. | |||
Since the issuance of the violation in 2014, the licensee had opportunities to perform a timing | |||
test of transformer XNB01 load tap changer (refueling outages in fall 2014 and spring 2016). | |||
Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved: The timing test of the XNBO1 load tap | |||
changer was successfully tested on October 20, 2017. Timing testing of the XNBO1 and | |||
XNB02 load tap changers will continue to be performed on a routine basis, going forward. | |||
Also, Callaway work management procedure will be revised to establish schedule dates for | |||
jobs associated with addressing NRC violations. Rescheduling jobs beyond the scheduled | |||
date would require justification as well as approval by management. The licensee will review | |||
any NRC violations received since October 2015 for jobs that are credited for restoring | |||
compliance. The basis for selecting October 2015 was that it coincided with the last time a | |||
comprehensive pre-Problem Identification and Resolution inspection self-assessment was | |||
performed. In that assessment, the timeliness of corrective actions for NRC violations prior to | |||
October 2015 was evaluated. Lessons learned in connection with this Notice of Violation will | |||
be communicated by station leadership. This will include expectations on identifying and | |||
adhering to the scheduled date for jobs addressing violations, as mentioned above. Both | |||
actions were complete by February 28, 2018. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the Notice of Violation along with | |||
corrective action documents. All findings were documented in NRC Inspection | |||
Report 05000483/2017007, ADAMS accession number ML17283A392. Notice of | |||
Violation 0500483/2017007-01 is closed. | |||
MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS | |||
The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report. | |||
On April 4, 2018, the inspectors presented the integrated quarterly resident inspection results to | |||
Mr. Tim Herrmann, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff. | |||

SUMMARY
The NRC continued monitoring licensees performance by conducting an integrated inspection at the Callaway Plant in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. NRC-identified and self-revealed findings, violations, and additional items are summarized in the tables below. A NRC-identified non-cited violation is documented in report section 71111.1

[H.3] - Human Performance,
Change Management 71111.11 Licensed Operator Performance The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a,
"Procedures," for the licensee's failure to maintain emergency operating procedures for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety-related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety-related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.

On March 7, 2018, the inspectors performed an observation of licensed control room operators and reviewed the use of auxiliary feedwater pumps (AFW or AFPs) in Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs). The AFW system provides a reliable source of water to the steam generators and removes thermal energy from the reactor coolant system through the release of secondary steam to the atmosphere. The AFW pumps are comprised of two motor-driven (MD) pumps and one turbine-driven (TD) pump. Each pump has recirculation lines to provide a constant discharge pathway and prevent pump damage. These AFW pumps can be supplied with the following three suction sources:
- (1) Condensate storage tank (CST) - non-safety-related and normally aligned
- (2) Hardened CST (HCST) - non-safety-related
- (3) Essential service water (ESW) - safety-related
In their review of EOPS, the inspectors noted that the following continuous action step was found in several EOPs and titled AFW Supply Switchover Criteria:
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 11.5 PSIG, THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment.
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 2.75 PSIG, THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction.
The inspectors reviewed EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, which states the following and accomplishes it in step 1 of the addendum:
When the HCST is supplying AFW, ONLY the TDAFW will be used, since it can be aligned to recirc back to the HCST. Therefore, the MDAFPs will be placed in Pull-to-Lock prior to isolating MDAFP recirc lines back to the CST.
The inspectors noted that EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction, Revision 3, did not restore the isolated and disabled motor-driven AFW pumps. Instead, EOP Addendum 19 refers only to the ESW valve lineup. As written, the discussed EOP addenda would leave the control room staff with only the turbine-driven AFW pump available.
The inspectors then reviewed accident analysis including section 15.2.8, Feedwater System Pipe Break, of the Final Safety Analysis Report which states:
For the auxiliary feedwater system, the worst case configuration has been used, i.e., only three intact steam generators receive auxiliary feedwater following the break... one motor-driven AFW pump to the intact steam generatorthe turbine-driven AFW pump has been assumed to fail... the second motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliverequally split to the two remaining intact steam generators...
The inspectors noted that the accident analysis of Final Safety Analysis Report chapter 15 does not refer to use of the HCST and does not refer to operator action to manually un-isolate motor-driven AFW pumps to reach and maintain safe shutdown.
The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition for the AFW Supply Switchover Criteria continuous action steps and found it in the following EOPs:
- (1) E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, Revision 19
- (2) E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, Revision 19
- (3) E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Revision 22
- (4) ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Revision 18
- (5) FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, Revision 18
The inspectors noted the HCST Alignment addendum was created in February 2016 and modified in October 2016 to the current Revision 1. The procedure review process noted the non-safety HCST is a useful water source prior to using the ESW... the HCST is maintained at a higher cleanliness. Further, the procedure review noted the HCST:
does not have a recirculation line from the Motor Drive Aux Feed pumps to the HCST... EOP Add 42 allows for the alignment of the recirc valves and stops the Motor Drive Aux Feedwater Pumps to prevent possible damage from overheating. Since this overall modification has been evaluated previously, this procedure change does not require further 50.59 review.
The inspectors concluded the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the EOPs placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines prior to aligning the safety-related suction source of essential service water. This configuration and operator actions are not supported by the accident analysis in the Final Safety Analysis Report.
Further, the licensee did not provide an adequate procedure for restoring the motor-driven AFW pumps from this configuration. Since the continuous action steps are pervasive across EOPs, it is plausible that an operating crew would enact the AFW supply switchover actions prior to fully diagnosing the accident and contrary to the goal of the EOP they were utilizing.
Corrective Actions: The licensee issued a night order clarifying the requirements for auxiliary feedwater in the EOPs and revised EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment.
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Reports 201801260 and 201801570.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The failure to maintain Emergency Operating Procedures for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources was a performance deficiency.
Screening: This performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it adversely affected the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because
- (1) the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system;
- (2) the finding did not represent a loss of system and/or function;
- (3) the finding did not represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time; and
- (4) the finding does not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with change management because the licensee failed to use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee prioritized the motor-driven AFW pumps health due to a lack of recirculation ability over the accident analysis by not adequately screening the procedure changes into 50.59 review in 2016.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2. Section 6 of Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, requires procedures for combating emergencies and other significant events. The licensee established EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, in part, to meet the regulatory requirement. Step 1 of EOP Addendum 42 placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines.
Contrary to the above, prior to March 7, 2018, the licensee failed to maintain procedures for combating emergencies and other significant events. Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. The licensee added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.
Unresolved Item (Closed)
Possible Incorrect Screening of the Spent Fuel Pool Decay Heat Removal Key Safety Function URI 05000483/2016001-01 71111.05AQ Quarterly Inspection
Description:
In Unresolved Item 05000483/2016001-01, the inspectors documented an issue of concern with the licensees National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 805, Performance-Based Standard for Fire Protection for Light-Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants, non-power operations assessment. Specifically, the inspectors developed an issue of concern because the licensee screened the potential loss of spent fuel pool cooling from further consideration for any fire event during non-power operations based on adequate procedural guidance and time when the procedures would not maintain the fuel in a safe and stable condition.
To address this unresolved item, the inspectors requested that the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) work with the Nuclear Energy Institute NFPA 805 Task Force in accordance with the NFPA 805 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Program to review and update the guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Non-Power Operations Clarifications, Revision 4. The inspectors documented this request in a memo, dated March 31, 2016 (ML16091A152). The updated guidance was issued in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5 on May 20, 2016 (ML17331B109). This revision was accepted by NRR staff in a memo, dated November 28, 2017 (ML17331B108).
The revised guidance provided clarification for the treatment of spent fuel pool cooling during non-power operations. The revised guidance stated that, Spent fuel pool configurations are not considered to be risk-significant and are not treated as a higher risk evolution. In the approval memo, the NRR staff agreed with the revised guidance, stating, The NRC staff agrees that the loss of spent fuel pool cooling does not need to be considered a higher risk evolution.
The licensee documented the non-power operations assessment in Calculation KC-26, Appendix 1, NFPA 805 Non-power Operations Assessment, Revision 3. The licensee performed this assessment based, in part, on guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 4.
During the current inspection, the inspectors reviewed the licensees non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5. In accordance with the revised guidance, the licensee did not need to perform additional analyses (Steps F.2 and F.3. of FAQ 07-0040) associated with spent fuel pool cooling because the staff agreed that the normal fire protection program defense-in-depth actions provide reasonable assurance that the spent fuel pool remains less than boiling. Based on the licensees non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance, the inspectors determined that no performance deficiency existed.
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Report 201600726
Observation 92702Followup on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternative Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders Discussion: The inspection team determined that the licensee had not: 1) adequately performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper operation; and 2) periodically performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper operation to maintain the operability of the offsite power sources.
Since the issuance of the violation in 2014, the licensee had opportunities to perform a timing test of transformer XNB01 load tap changer (refueling outages in fall 2014 and spring 2016).
Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved: The timing test of the XNBO1 load tap changer was successfully tested on October 20, 2017. Timing testing of the XNBO1 and XNB02 load tap changers will continue to be performed on a routine basis, going forward.
Also, Callaway work management procedure will be revised to establish schedule dates for jobs associated with addressing NRC violations. Rescheduling jobs beyond the scheduled date would require justification as well as approval by management. The licensee will review any NRC violations received since October 2015 for jobs that are credited for restoring compliance. The basis for selecting October 2015 was that it coincided with the last time a comprehensive pre-Problem Identification and Resolution inspection self-assessment was performed. In that assessment, the timeliness of corrective actions for NRC violations prior to October 2015 was evaluated. Lessons learned in connection with this Notice of Violation will be communicated by station leadership. This will include expectations on identifying and adhering to the scheduled date for jobs addressing violations, as mentioned above. Both actions were complete by February 28, 2018.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the Notice of Violation along with corrective action documents. All findings were documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000483/2017007, ADAMS accession number ML17283A392. Notice of Violation 0500483/2017007-01 is closed.
MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.
On April 4, 2018, the inspectors presented the integrated quarterly resident inspection results to Mr. Tim Herrmann, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff.

The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a,
"Procedures," for the licensee's failure to maintain emergency operating procedures for
aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous
action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary
feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting
the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three
safety-related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the
safety-related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.

The inspectors identified a Green, non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a,
"Procedures," for the licensee's failure to maintain emergency operating procedures for
aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. Specifically, the licensee added continuous
action steps to emergency operating procedures that placed both motor-driven auxiliary
feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting
the two non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety
related auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety
related suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.
Description:
On March 7, 2018, the inspectors performed an observation of licensed control room
operators and reviewed the use of auxiliary feedwater pumps (AFW or AFPs) in Emergency
Operating Procedures (EOPs). The AFW system provides a reliable source of water to the
steam generators and removes thermal energy from the reactor coolant system through the
release of secondary steam to the atmosphere. The AFW pumps are comprised of two
motor-driven (MD) pumps and one turbine-driven (TD) pump. Each pump has recirculation
lines to provide a constant discharge pathway and prevent pump damage. These AFW
pumps can be supplied with the following three suction sources:
(1) Condensate storage tank (CST) - non-safety-related and normally aligned
(2) Hardened CST (HCST) - non-safety-related
(3) Essential service water (ESW) - safety-related
In their review of EOPS, the inspectors noted that the following continuous action step was
found in several EOPs and titled AFW Supply Switchover Criteria:
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 11.5 PSIG,
THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment.
If CST to AFP suction header pressure lowers to less than 2.75 PSIG,
THEN PERFORM EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction.
The inspectors reviewed EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, which states the
following and accomplishes it in step 1 of the addendum:
When the HCST is supplying AFW, ONLY the TDAFW will be used, since it
can be aligned to recirc back to the HCS
- T. Therefore, the MDAFPs will be
placed in Pull-to-Lock prior to isolating MDAFP recirc lines back to the
CST.
The inspectors noted that EOP Addendum 19, Aligning ESW to AFW Suction, Revision 3,
did not restore the isolated and disabled motor-driven AFW pumps. Instead, EOP
Addendum 19 refers only to the ESW valve lineup. As written, the discussed EOP addenda
would leave the control room staff with only the turbine-driven AFW pump available.
The inspectors then reviewed accident analysis including section 15.2.8, Feedwater System
Pipe Break, of the Final Safety Analysis Report which states:
For the auxiliary feedwater system, the worst case configuration has been
used, i.e., only three intact steam generators receive auxiliary feedwater
following the break... one motor-driven AFW pump to the intact steam
generatorthe turbine-driven AFW pump has been assumed to fail... the
second motor-driven AFW pump is assumed to deliverequally split to the
two remaining intact steam generators...
The inspectors noted that the accident analysis of Final Safety Analysis Report chapter 15
does not refer to use of the HCST and does not refer to operator action to manually un-isolate
motor-driven AFW pumps to reach and maintain safe shutdown.
The inspectors reviewed the extent of condition for the AFW Supply Switchover Criteria
continuous action steps and found it in the following EOPs:
(1) E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, Revision 19
(2) E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant, Revision 19
(3) E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Revision 22
(4) ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Revision 18
(5) FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, Revision 18
The inspectors noted the HCST Alignment addendum was created in February 2016 and
modified in October 2016 to the current Revision 1. The procedure review process noted the
non-safety HCST is a useful water source prior to using the ESW... the HCST is
maintained at a higher cleanliness. Further, the procedure review noted the HCST:
does not have a recirculation line from the Motor Drive Aux Feed pumps to
the HCST... EOP Add 42 allows for the alignment of the recirc valves and
stops the Motor Drive Aux Feedwater Pumps to prevent possible damage
from overheating. Since this overall modification has been evaluated
previously, this procedure change does not require further 50.59 review.
The inspectors concluded the licensee failed to maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater
suction sources. Specifically, the EOPs placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps
in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines prior to aligning the
safety-related suction source of essential service water. This configuration and operator
actions are not supported by the accident analysis in the Final Safety Analysis Report.
Further, the licensee did not provide an adequate procedure for restoring the motor-driven
AFW pumps from this configuration. Since the continuous action steps are pervasive across
EOPs, it is plausible that an operating crew would enact the AFW supply switchover actions
prior to fully diagnosing the accident and contrary to the goal of the EOP they were utilizing.
Corrective Actions: The licensee issued a night order clarifying the requirements for auxiliary
feedwater in the EOPs and revised EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment.
Corrective Action Reference: Condition Reports 201801260 and 201801570.
Performance Assessment:
Performance Deficiency: The failure to maintain Emergency Operating Procedures for
aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources was a performance deficiency.
Screening: This performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding,
because it adversely affected the procedure quality attribute of the Mitigating Systems
Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that
respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee
added continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater
pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two
non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related
auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related
suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.
Significance: Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization
of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings
At-Power, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012, the
inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because
(1) the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system;
(2) the finding did not represent a loss of system and/or function; (3) the finding did not
represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification
allowed outage time; and (4) the finding does not represent an actual loss of function of one
or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant
in accordance with the licensee's maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
Cross-Cutting Aspect: The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human
performance associated with change management because the licensee failed to use a
systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains
the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensee prioritized the motor-driven AFW pumps
health due to a lack of recirculation ability over the accident analysis by not adequately
screening the procedure changes into 50.59 review in 2016.
Enforcement:
Violation: Technical Specification 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be
established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended
in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2. Section 6 of Appendix A to Regulatory
Guide 1.33, Revision 2, requires procedures for combating emergencies and other significant
events. The licensee established EOP Addendum 42, HCST Alignment, Revision 1, in part,
to meet the regulatory requirement. Step 1 of EOP Addendum 42 placed both motor-driven
auxiliary feedwater pumps in pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines.
Contrary to the above, prior to March 7, 2018, the licensee failed to maintain procedures for
combating emergencies and other significant events. Specifically, the licensee failed to
maintain EOPs for aligning auxiliary feedwater suction sources. The licensee added
continuous action steps to EOPs that placed both motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps in
pull-to-lock and isolated their associated recirculation lines after depleting the two
non-safety-related suction sources. These actions cause two of the three safety related
auxiliary feedwater pumps to be rendered inoperable prior to aligning the safety related
suction source of essential service water which is credited in accident analysis.
Enforcement Action: This violation is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with
Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

Plants, non-power operations assessment. Specifically, the inspectors developed an issue of
concern because the licensee screened the potential loss of spent fuel pool cooling from
further consideration for any fire event during non-power operations based on adequate
procedural guidance and time when the procedures would not maintain the fuel in a safe and
stable condition.
To address this unresolved item, the inspectors requested that the Office of Nuclear Reactor
Regulation (NRR) work with the Nuclear Energy Institute NFPA 805 Task Force in accordance
with the NFPA 805 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Program to review and update the
guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Non-Power Operations Clarifications, Revision 4. The inspectors
documented this request in a memo, dated March 31, 2016 (ML16091A152). The updated
guidance was issued in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5 on May 20, 2016 (ML17331B109). This
revision was accepted by NRR staff in a memo, dated November 28, 2017 (ML17331B108).
The revised guidance provided clarification for the treatment of spent fuel pool cooling during
non-power operations. The revised guidance stated that, Spent fuel pool configurations are
not considered to be risk-significant and are not treated as a higher risk evolution. In the
approval memo, the NRR staff agreed with the revised guidance, stating, The NRC staff
agrees that the loss of spent fuel pool cooling does not need to be considered a higher risk
evolution.
The licensee documented the non-power operations assessment in Calculation KC-26,
Appendix 1, NFPA 805 Non-power Operations Assessment, Revision 3. The licensee
performed this assessment based, in part, on guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 4.
During the current inspection, the inspectors reviewed the licensees non-power operations
assessment and the revised guidance in FAQ 07-0040, Revision 5. In accordance with the
revised guidance, the licensee did not need to perform additional analyses (Steps F.2
and F.3. of FAQ 07-0040) associated with spent fuel pool cooling because the staff agreed
that the normal fire protection program defense-in-depth actions provide reasonable
assurance that the spent fuel pool remains less than boiling. Based on the licensees
non-power operations assessment and the revised guidance, the inspectors determined that
no performance deficiency existed.

Enforcement Actions Including
Violations, Deviations,
Confirmatory Action Letters,
Confirmatory Orders, and
Alternative Dispute Resolution
Confirmatory Orders
Discussion: The inspection team determined that the licensee had not: 1) adequately
performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap changer to ensure proper
operation; and 2) periodically performed a timing test of the transformer XNB01 load tap
changer to ensure proper operation to maintain the operability of the offsite power sources.
Since the issuance of the violation in 2014, the licensee had opportunities to perform a timing
test of transformer XNB01 load tap changer (refueling outages in fall 2014 and spring 2016).
Corrective Steps Taken and Results Achieved: The timing test of the XNBO1 load tap
changer was successfully tested on October 20, 2017. Timing testing of the XNBO1 and
XNB02 load tap changers will continue to be performed on a routine basis, going forward.
Also, Callaway work management procedure will be revised to establish schedule dates for
jobs associated with addressing NRC violations. Rescheduling jobs beyond the scheduled
date would require justification as well as approval by management. The licensee will review
any NRC violations received since October 2015 for jobs that are credited for restoring
compliance. The basis for selecting October 2015 was that it coincided with the last time a
comprehensive pre-Problem Identification and Resolution inspection self-assessment was
performed. In that assessment, the timeliness of corrective actions for NRC violations prior to
October 2015 was evaluated. Lessons learned in connection with this Notice of Violation will
be communicated by station leadership. This will include expectations on identifying and
adhering to the scheduled date for jobs addressing violations, as mentioned above. Both
actions were complete by February 28, 2018.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees response to the Notice of Violation along with
corrective action documents. All findings were documented in NRC Inspection
Report 05000483/2017007, ADAMS accession number ML17283A392. Notice of
Violation 0500483/2017007-01 is closed.
MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS
The inspectors verified no proprietary information was retained or documented in this report.
On April 4, 2018, the inspectors presented the integrated quarterly resident inspection results to
Mr. Tim Herrmann, Site Vice President, and other members of the licensee staff.
