| description = The inspectors identified an URI associated with the timely and effective corrective action associated with an adverse trend in safety related pump performance, including mechanical seal degradation and failure. This item is unresolved pending review and evaluation of the licensees response to the CRs generated to determine if a performance deficiency exists. During Unit 1, 2015 fall outage, the 1A Safety Injection (SI) pump mechanical seal was replaced. The mechanical seal had degraded to a point at which the leakage was greater than the Technical Specification limit for ECCS leakage outside of containment. The inspectors identified several issues during a review of the Prompt Determination of Operability for CR 1125623 and WO 116050574 to replace the seal. Specifically, inspectors found that non-QA1 parts were being used for seal replacement, the seal was the original equipment manufacturer part from startup, the failure mechanism was not clearly understood, and an extent of condition review was not performed. The inspectors reviewed other safety related pump mechanical seal performance and corrective action program entries. The inspectors are awaiting the completion of the licensees evaluation to determine the licensees compliance with applicable procedures and TS relative to pump operability and ECCS leakage limits outside containment. Additional inspection activities are needed to determine the extent of condition and compliance with the procedures and TS. Pending the results of this additional inspection, an URI will be opened and designated as URI 05000390/2016001-09, Appropriateness of Corrective Actions Associated with Safety Related Pump Mechanical Seal Issues and the Effect on Plant Response. | | description = The inspectors identified an URI associated with the timely and effective corrective action associated with an adverse trend in safety related pump performance, including mechanical seal degradation and failure.
