SUBJECT: SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC INTEGRATEDINSPECTION REPORT 05000400/2007002
Dear Mr. Duncan:
On March 31, 2007, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection atyour Shearon Harris reactor facility. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents theinspection findings, which were discussed on April 11, 2007 with you and other members of your staff.The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety andcompliance 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. Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified by the NRC.However, two licensee identified violations, which were determined to be of very low safety significance, are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy because of their very low safety significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program. If you contest these non-cited violations, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN.: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, UnitedStates Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Shearon Harris facility.In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and itsenclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public DocumentRoom or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) components of NRC's document system 2(ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

10Enclosure4.OTHER ACTIVITIES4OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems
.1 Routine Review of ARsTo aid in the identification of repetitive equipment failures or specific humanperformance issues for followup, the inspectors performed frequent screenings of items
entered into the CAP. The review was accomplished by reviewing daily AR reports.
.2 Annual Sample Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected AR 79228 for detailed review. This AR was associated with the corrective action for a fire that developed in the motor-driven fire pump as a result of a failure in 6.9kV rated cabling. This AR included corrective action that is relevant to all 6.9kV rated cables. The inspectors reviewed this report to verify that the licensee identified the full extent of the issue, performed an appropriate evaluation, and specified and prioritized appropriate corrective actions. The inspectors evaluated the report against the requirements of the licensee's corrective action program as delineated in corporate procedure CAP-NGGC-0200, Corrective Action Program, and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B.
b. Observations and Findings
No findings of significance were identified. 4OA6Meetings, Including ExitOn April 11 , 2007, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr.Duncan and other members of his staff. The inspectors confirmed that proprietaryinformation was not provided or examined during the inspection.4OA7Licensee-Identified ViolationsThe following violations of very low safety significance (Green) were identified by thelicensee and are violations of NRC requirements which meet the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as NCVs.* Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established,implemented and maintained covering the procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. That appendix discusses Administrative Procedures for Shift and Relief Turnover
- (1g) and Administrative Procedures for Log Entries, Record Retention, and Review Procedures (1h). Contrary to the above, on February 5, 2007, the licensee failed 11Enclosureto implement established administrative procedures resulting in an 18 hour2.083333e-4 days <br />0.005 hours <br />2.97619e-5 weeks <br />6.849e-6 months <br /> delayin declaring the B train of WC-2A essential services chiller inoperable. This failure to implement established administrative procedures is of very low safety significance and has been entered into the licensee's corrective action program (AR 221803221803. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because it did not represent a loss of system safety function, the single train of the ESCW system affected did not lose functionality for greater than the TS allowed outage time, and the finding was not potentially risk-significant due to external events.*Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established,implemented and maintained covering procedures for fire protection program implementation. Contrary to this requirement, the licensee did not follow fire program implementation procedure FPP-013, Fire Protection - Minimum Requirements, Mitigating Actions and Surveillance Requirements when an hourly fire watch was not established for fire barrier deficiencies. Two examples of this deficiency were identified. The first example was inadequate protection of cables in the turbine building which could lead to the loss of power to valve 1CS-231. This failure to implement fire protection program procedures is of very low safety significance because it represents a low degradation of the systems required to reach safe shutdown. The second example was inadequate protection of cables which could lead to the loss of power to B Train ESW Traveling Screens, suction strainers, and screen wash. This failure to implement fire protection program procedures is of very low safety significance because the configuration of the cable run exposed by the lack of fire watch represents a low degradation of the barrier for systems required to reach safe shutdown. These failures to implement established fire protection program procedures are of very low safety significance and have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program (AR 226458226458and AR 227885227885.
