SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000416/2006003; 4/1/06 - 6/30/06; Grand Gulf Nuclear Station; Integrated Resident andRegional Report; Refueling and Outage Activities.This report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and Regional officeinspectors. The inspection identified one Green finding which was also a noncited violation.
The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red)using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process." Findings for which the significance determination process does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management's review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safeoperation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "ReactorOversight Process," Revision 3, dated July 2000.A.
NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity
- Green.
The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of TechnicalSpecification 5.4.1(a) for the failure to follow the procedure for reactor recirculationpump speed changes. Operators attempted to shift Recirculation Pump A to fast speed without verifying that interlocks were satisfied (annunciators not lit) as required byprocedure. As a result, Recirculation Pump A failed to shift to fast speed, creating a flow mismatch between the recirculation loops. The licensee entered this into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2006-2329.This finding is more than minor since the failure to follow procedures regarding reactormanipulation, if left uncorrected, could lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors determined this finding affected the Barrier Integrity cornerstone since matched recirculation loop flows is an assumption used in the accident analysis for a loss-of-coolant accident resulting from a loop break. A flow mismatch could result in core response more severe than assumed in the accident analysis. Using Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1 Worksheets, the finding is of very low safety significance since it only affects the fuel barrier. This finding has crosscutting aspects associated with human performance since operators failed tofollow procedures and verify that all annunciators associated with the recirculation loop pump temperatures were extinguished prior to shifting Recirculation Pump A to fast speed. Operators made incorrect assumptions regarding the meaning of the lit annunciator and the impact that it would have on their ability to shift the pump to fastspeed.
B.Licensee-Identified Violations
A violation of very low safety significance which was identified by the licensee has beenreviewed by the inspectors. Corrective actions taken or planned by the licensee have been entered into the licensee's corrective action program. This violation and the corrective actions are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

b. Findings
Introduction:
The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of TechnicalSpecification 5.4.1(a) for the failure to follow the procedure for reactor recirculation pumpspeed changes.Description: On February 2, 2006, a failed temperature probe on reactor recirculationLoop A resulted in the actuation of the "Recirculation Pump A Temperature Interlock" control room annunciator. The annunciator response procedure states that actuation ofthis interlock prevents the start of reactor recirculation Pump A. In accordance with Procedure 02-S-01-25, "Deficient Equipment Identification," Revision 10, operators
-11-initiated a WO for the failed temperature probe and placed a marker with a single stripeon the annunciator alarm window to identify it as a problem annunciator. The licensee did not write a condition report for the failed probe and, therefore, did not enter theproblem into the corrective action program. Since the probe was physically located in the drywell, the WO was scheduled as an outage activity. However, repair of the probe was not added to the forced outage work list and was not included as part of the scope for a planned midcycle outage.On May 30, operators were increasing plant power following completion of the midcycleoutage. With the plant at 30 percent power, operators planned to shift the recirculationpumps to fast speed in accordance with Procedure 04-1-01-B33-1, "Reactor Recirculation System," Revision 125. Prior to shifting the pumps to fast speed, Procedure 04-1-01-B33-1 required operators to verify that all annunciators associated with the recirculation loop pump temperatures were extinguished, thus ensuring that thetemperature interlocks were satisfied prior to starting the pump. Operators successfully shifted Recirculation Pump B to fast speed. Prior to shifting Recirculation Pump A, operators noted that the "Recirculation Pump A Temperature Interlock" control roomannunciator was lit, but had a single stripe marker on it indicating there was a problem with the annunciator. Despite the fact that the annunciator was lit, operators attempted to shift Recirculation Pump A to fast speed, but the pump did not shift. Operators attempted to shift pump speed two more times before they questioned whether or not the temperature interlock had been satisfied. With Recirculation Pump B operating in fast speed, and Recirculation Pump A operatingin slow speed, a flow mismatch existed between the two loops which exceeded the Technical Specification 3.4.1 Limiting Condition for Operation. Matched recirculationloop flows are required in order to meet the accident analysis assumptions for a loss-of-coolant accident resulting from a recirculation loop line break. Operators enteredCondition A which required that they shut down one recirculation loop within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.
One hour and 40 minutes later, operators shifted Recirculation Pump B to slow speed, established matched recirculation loop flows, and exited TS 3.4.1. After both recirculation pumps were operating in slow speed, maintenance techniciansimplemented a WO to temporarily bypass the temperature interlock. After verifying that all requirements were satisfied, operators successfully started Recirculation Pump A in fast speed and continued with the plant startup.Analysis: The failure by operators to follow station procedures for the operation ofrecirculation pumps was a performance deficiency. This finding is more than minor since the failure to follow procedures regarding reactor manipulation, if left uncorrected, could lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors determined this finding affected the Barrier Integrity cornerstone since matched recirculation loop flows is an assumption used in the accident analysis for a loss-of-coolant accident resulting from a loop break. A flow mismatch could result in core response more severe than assumed in the accident analysis. Using Manual Chapter 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Phase 1 Worksheets, the finding is of very low safety significance since it only affects the fuel barrier. This finding has crosscutting aspects associated with human performance since operators failed to follow procedures and verify that all annunciators
-12-associated with the recirculation loop pump temperatures were extinguished prior toshifting Recirculation Pump A to fast speed. Operators made incorrect assumptions regarding the meaning of the lit annunciator and the impact that it would have on theirability to shift the pump to fast s peed.
Enforcement:
Technical Specification 5.4.1(a) requires written procedures to beimplemented as recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978. Appendix A recommends procedures governing operations at power.
Procedure 03-1-01-2, "Power Operations," Revision 130, directs operators to transfer reactor recirculation pumps to fast speed per Procedure 04-1-01-B33-1, "Reactor Recirculation System," Revision 125. Step 4.2.2a(4) of Procedure 04-1-01-B33-1 requires, in part, that operators ensure the annunciators associated with the recirculationpump to be shifted are extinguished. Contrary to the above, on May 30, 2006, thereactor operator attempted to shift reactor recirculation Pump A to fast speed while the temperature interlock annunciator was illuminated. Because this violation was of verylow safety significance and was entered in the corrective action program as CR-GGN-2006-2329, this violation is being treated as a noncited violation consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy: Noncited Violation (NCV)05000416/2006003-01, Failure to Follow Procedure results in Recirculation Loop Flow Mismatch.

b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.
On March 22, 2006, the plant was operating at 100 percent power when a reactorfeedwater pump trip resulted in a plant power reduction to approximately 50 percent power. Plant technicians inspected the feed pump control panel fuses and measured voltage and current values at various points in the cabinet, including the +5 volt power distribution bus. The technicians measured a power distribution bus voltage of
+4.93 volts, which was within the tolerance of the surveillance and the tolerance required by the vendor manual. Grand Gulf personnel contacted the vendor and discovered that
-18-similar events have occurred in which the power distribution bus voltage was within therequired tolerance but still caused a control system failure due to low voltage. Thelicensee subsequently revised their surveillance procedure to require a higher minimumvoltage for the power distribution bus.The inspectors completed a Phase 2 SDP analysis in conjunction with a senior reactoranalyst for the reactor feed pump trip event. Key assumptions used in the analysis included: *The exposure time for low voltage on the power distribution bus used in Table 1 ofthe Risk-Informed Inspection Notebook for Grand Gulf Nuclear Station (SDP Phase 2 Notebook, Revision 2) was >30 days. *The loss of a reactor feedwater pump was unlikely to occur in the 24-hour periodfollowing a small break loss-of-coolant accident.*Both reactor feedwater pumps would not trip concurrently.
The inspectors solved the transient event worksheet of the SDP Phase 2 notebook usingthe above assumptions and determined the event was of very low safety significance..3Semiannual Trend Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors completed a semiannual trend review of repetitive or closely relatedissues that were documented in condition reports, maintenance WOs, system healthreports, and corrective action trend reports to identify trends that might indicate the existence of more safety significant issues. The inspectors' review consisted of the 6-month period from January 1 through June 30, 2006. When warranted, some of the samples expanded beyond those dates to fully assess the issue. The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the licensee'squarterly trend reports for the fourth quarters of 2005 and 2006. Corrective actions associated with a sample of the issues identified in the licensee's trend report were reviewed for adequacy. The review also included issues documented outside the corrective action process, including repetitive and/or rework maintenance lists, departmental problem lists, system health reports, quality assurance audits/surveillances,self-assessment reports, and maintenance rule assessments. Documents reviewed by the inspectors are listed in the attachment.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.
-19-.4Emergency Preparedness
a. Inspection Scope
The inspector reviewed emergency response organization performance and facilityproblems documented in the licensee's corrective action program and work tracking system between June 2004 and April 2006. The inspector selected 21 condition reportsto verify effective corrective action.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.4OA3 Event Followup.1(Closed) Licensee Event Report 05000416/2005003-00, Mode Change Contrary toTechnical Specification LCO 3.0.4On October 7, 2005, the licensee replaced the Division I load shed and sequencer (LSS)power supplies as part of routine preventive maintenance. The LSS power supplies are safety-related components that provide a reference voltage to the Division I Engineered Safety Features (ESF) degraded voltage bistables. On October 25, 2005, the licensee performed a TS surveillance and found the Division I ESF degraded voltage bistable setpoints higher than the TS allowable values. The licensee determined that smallvariations in the Division I LSS power supply voltages caused the bistable setpoints to increase above the allowable values.TS Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) 3.3.8.1 required that the setpoints be broughtinto the allowable values or the associated emergency diesel generator be declared inoperable. Since the licensee did not recognize the impact of the replacement powersupplies on the Division I ESF degraded voltage bistable setpoints, the appropriate TS action statement was not entered and the allowed completion time was exceeded.
Additionally, the licensee violated TS LCO 3.0.4 when the station changed modes with aninoperable emergency diesel generator on October 16 and 18, 2005. This licensee-identified violation of TS LCO 3.0.4 affected the Initiating Events Cornerstone and hadvery low safety significance (Green) per Appendix A of the SDP because it did not contribute to the likelihood of a reactor trip and the likelihood that mitigation equipment orfunctions would be unavailable. The enforcement aspects of this violation are discussed in Section 4OA7. This licensee event report is closed.
-20-4OA5Other.1Implementation of Temporary Instruction (TI) 2515/165 - Operational Readiness ofOffsite Power and Impact on Plant Risk
a. Inspection Scope
The objective of TI 2515/165, "Operational Readiness of Offsite Power and Impact onPlant Risk," was to confirm, through inspections and interviews, the operational readiness of offsite power systems in accordance with NRC requirements. On March 15-22, 2006,the inspectors reviewed licensee procedures and discussed the attributes identified in TI 2515/165 with licensee personnel. In accordance with the requirements of TI 2515/165, the inspectors evaluated the licensee's operating procedures used toassure the functionality/operability of the offsite power system, as well as the riskassessment, emergent work, and/or grid reliability procedures used to assess theoperability and readiness of the offsite power system.The information gathered while completing this TI was forwarded to the Office of NuclearReactor Regulation for further review and evaluation.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.4OA6Meetings, Including ExitOn April 11, 2006, the senior emergency preparedness inspector conducted a telephonicexit meeting to present inspection results to Mr. M. Guynn, Manager, Emergency Planning, who acknowledged the findings. The inspector confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection.On May 12, 2006, the emergency preparedness inspector presented inspection results toMr. G. Williams, Vice President, Operations, and other members of his staff whoacknowledged the findings. The inspector confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection.On July 10, 2006, the resident inspectors presented the inspection results toMr. G. Williams, Vice President, Operations, and other members of his staff whoacknowledged the findings. The inspectors confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection. 4OA7Licensee-Identified ViolationsThe following violation of very low significance (Green) was identified by the licensee andis a violation of NRC requirements which met the criteria of Section VI of theNRC Enforcement Policy, NUREG-1600, for being dispositioned as an NCV.
-21-*TS LCO 3.0.4 requires, in part that, when an LCO is not met, entry into a modeshall not be made, except when the associated action to be entered permits continued operation in that mode for an unlimited amount of time. The licensee violated LCO 3.0.4 when the station was brought into Mode 2 on October 16, 2005,and into Mode 1 on October 18, 2005, with the Division I emergency diesel generator inoperable. This event is documented in the licensee's corrective action program as CR-GGN-2005-4665. This finding is of very low safety significance because it did not contribute to the likelihood of a reactor trip and the likelihood thatmitigation equipment or functions would not be available.
