A. | |||
NRC-Identified Findings and Self-Revealing Findings | |||
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems | |||
Green. The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation of technical specification | |||
3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation. The technical specifications require all four | |||
channels (A, B, C, and D) of local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, | |||
and reactor coolant flow instruments to be operable when in Mode 1. These Channel B | |||
instruments require an input from the Channel B log power instrument, which was | |||
previously declared inoperable. With the Channel B log power instrument inoperable, | |||
the Channel B local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, and reactor | |||
coolant flow instruments should also have been declared inoperable. The licensee | |||
entered this finding in their corrective action program as condition reports CR-WF3- | |||
2009-4401 and CR-WF3-2009-4407. | |||
The failure to either trip or bypass the inoperable channels within one hour was more | |||
than minor because it affected the configuration control attribute of the mitigating | |||
systems cornerstone. Specifically, deliberate operator action was required to ensure that | |||
proper reactor protection system coincidence and reliability were maintained. Also, if left | |||
uncorrected, the potential existed for Channel B reactor protective trips to be | |||
inadvertently removed while at power. The failure to meet the technical specifications | |||
was considered to be of very low safety significance (Green), since there was no actual | |||
loss of safety function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the decision-making | |||
component of the human performance area because the licensee failed to verify the | |||
validity of underlying assumptions and identify unintended consequences of failing to | |||
comply with technical specification 3.3.1 by declaring the log power Channel B | |||
inoperable and not placing local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, | |||
B. | and reactor coolant flow instrument channels in either bypass or trip condition (H.1.b). | ||

Readiness for Impending Adverse Weather Conditions | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
Since thunderstorms with potential tornados and high winds were forecast in the vicinity | |||
of the facility for October 4, 2009, the inspectors reviewed the licensees overall | |||
preparations/protection for the expected weather conditions. The inspectors evaluated | |||
the licensee staffs documented preparations against the sites procedures and | |||
determined that the staffs actions were adequate. During the inspection, the inspectors | |||
focused on plant-specific design features and the licensees procedures used to respond | |||
to specified adverse weather conditions. The inspector's evaluated operator staffing and | |||
accessibility of controls and indications for those systems required to control the plant. | |||
Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report and | |||
verified that operator actions were appropriate as specified by plant-specific procedures. | |||
Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. | |||

Partial Walkdown | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors performed partial system walkdowns of the following risk-significant | |||
systems: | |||
* | |||
July 22, 2009: Chemical volume control Train A | |||
* | |||
August 12, 2009: Emergency feedwater Train A | |||
* | |||
August 13, 2009: Low pressure safety injection Train B | |||

August 18, 2009: Emergency feedwater Train AB | |||
* | |||
September 15, 2009: High pressure safety injection system Train A | |||
- 3 - | |||
Enclosure | |||
The inspectors selected these systems based on their risk significance relative to the | |||
reactor safety cornerstones at the time they were inspected. The inspectors attempted | |||
to identify any discrepancies that could affect the function of the system, and, therefore, | |||
potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures, | |||
system diagrams, Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, technical specification | |||
requirements, administrative technical specifications, outstanding work orders, condition | |||
reports, and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in | |||
order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of | |||
performing their intended functions. The inspectors also walked down accessible | |||
portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were | |||
aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the | |||
components and observed operating parameters of equipment to verify that there were | |||
no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly | |||
identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events | |||
or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the | |||
corrective action program with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific | |||
documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. | |||
These activities constitute completion of five partial system walkdown samples as | |||
defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.04-05. | |||

the plant; effectively maintained fire detection and suppression capability; maintained | |||
passive fire protection features in good material condition; and had implemented | |||
adequate compensatory measures for out of service, degraded or inoperable fire | |||
protection equipment, systems, or features, in accordance with the licensees fire plan. | |||
The inspectors selected fire areas based on their overall contribution to internal fire risk | |||
as documented in the plants Individual Plant Examination of External Events with later | |||
additional insights, their potential to affect equipment that could initiate or mitigate a plant | |||
transient, or their impact on the plants ability to respond to a security event. Using the | |||
documents listed in the attachment, the inspectors verified that fire hoses and | |||
extinguishers were in their designated locations and available for immediate use; that | |||
fire detectors and sprinklers were unobstructed, that transient material loading was | |||
within the analyzed limits; and fire doors, dampers, and penetration seals appeared to | |||
be in satisfactory condition. The inspectors also verified that minor issues identified | |||
during the inspection were entered into the licensees corrective action program. | |||
Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment. | |||
These activities constitute completion of ten quarterly fire-protection inspection samples | |||
as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05. | |||

Annual Fire Protection Drill Observation (71111.05A) | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
On September 23, 2009, the inspectors observed a fire brigade activation as the result | |||
of a simulated fire at feed heater drain Pump C. The observation evaluated the | |||
readiness of the plant fire brigade to fight fires. The inspectors verified that the licensee | |||
staff identified deficiencies, openly discussed them in a self-critical manner at the drill | |||
debrief, and took appropriate corrective actions. Specific attributes evaluated were: | |||
(1) proper wearing of turnout gear and self-contained breathing apparatus; (2) proper | |||
use and layout of fire hoses; (3) employment of appropriate fire fighting techniques; | |||
(4) sufficient firefighting equipment brought to the scene; (5) effectiveness of fire brigade | |||
leader communications, command, and control; (6) search for victims and propagation of | |||
the fire into other plant areas; (7) smoke removal operations; (8) utilization of pre | |||
planned strategies; (9) adherence to the preplanned drill scenario; and (10) drill | |||
objectives. | |||
These activities constitute completion of one annual fire-protection inspection sample as | |||
defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.05-05. | |||

the reactor safety cornerstones. As applicable for each activity, the inspectors verified | |||
that licensee personnel performed risk assessments as required by 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) | |||
and that the assessments were accurate and complete. When licensee personnel | |||
performed emergent work, the inspectors verified that the licensee personnel promptly | |||
assessed and managed plant risk. The inspectors reviewed the scope of maintenance | |||
work, discussed the results of the assessment with the licensee's probabilistic risk | |||
analyst or shift technical advisor, and verified plant conditions were consistent with the | |||
risk assessment. The inspectors also reviewed the technical specification requirements | |||
and inspected portions of redundant safety systems, when applicable, to verify risk | |||

The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk-significance | |||
of the associated components and systems. The inspectors evaluated the technical | |||
adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that technical specification operability was | |||
properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no | |||
unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and | |||
design criteria in the appropriate sections of the technical specifications and Updated | |||
Safety Analysis Report to the licensees evaluations, to determine whether the | |||
components or systems were operable. Where compensatory measures were required | |||
to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would | |||
function as intended and were properly controlled. The inspectors determined, where | |||
appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations. | |||
Additionally, the inspectors also reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to | |||
verify that the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with | |||
operability evaluations. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in | |||
the attachment. | |||
These activities constitute completion of four operability evaluations inspection samples | |||
b. Findings | as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-05 | ||
b. | |||
Findings | |||
Introduction: The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation of technical | |||
specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation. The technical specifications | |||
require all four channels (A, B, C, and D) of local power density, departure from nucleate | |||
boiling ratio, and reactor coolant flow instruments to be operable when in Mode 1. | |||
These Channel B instruments require an input from the Channel B log power instrument, | |||
which was previously declared inoperable. With the Channel B log power instrument | |||
inoperable, the Channel B local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, and | |||
reactor coolant flow instruments should also have been declared inoperable. | |||
Description: On Aug 20, 2009, the inspector observed the performance of procedure | |||
MI-003-126, Revision 14, Core Protection Calculator Functional. During the | |||
performance of the test procedure, the inspector noted that CPC Channel B high log | |||
power trip was bypassed. The inspector asked why technical specification 3.3.1 had not | |||
been entered due to the inoperable log power Channel B instrument. Technical | |||
specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation, requires that the reactor | |||
protective instrumentation channels and bypasses contained in Table 3.3-1 be operable | |||
in accordance with the requirements of the table. Table 3.3-1 requires all four channels | |||
of local power density (LPD), departure from nucleate boiling ratio (DNBR), and reactor | |||
coolant flow instruments to be operable in Mode 1. | |||
Log power Channel B provides a high log power automatic bypass removal signal for | |||
LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow instrumentation channels. Technical specification | |||
3.3.1, Table 3.3-1 requires the high log power bypass shall be automatically removed | |||
when reactor power is greater than or equal to 10-4% of rated thermal power. When in | |||
Mode 1, reactor power is greater than 10-4% of rated thermal power. The inspectors | |||
determined that when a log power instrument is out of service, the automatic removal of | |||
the high log power bypass function is inoperable and thus the associated protective | |||
channels of LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow are also inoperable. | |||

31 with a new cell. The old Cell 31 was left in place and jumpered around, while | |||
the new Cell 31 was installed at the end of the battery rack. | |||
The inspectors reviewed the temporary modification and the associated safety | |||
evaluation screening against the system design bases documentation, including the | |||
Updated Final Safety Analysis Report and the technical specifications, and verified that | |||
the modification did not adversely affect the system operability/availability. The | |||
inspectors also verified that the installation and restoration were consistent with the | |||
modification documents and that configuration control was adequate. Additionally, the | |||
inspectors verified that the temporary modification was identified on control room | |||
drawings, appropriate tags were placed on the affected equipment, and licensee | |||
personnel evaluated the combined effects on mitigating systems and the integrity of | |||
radiological barriers. | |||
The inspectors reviewed key affected parameters associated with energy needs, | |||
materials/replacement components, timing, heat removal, control signals, equipment | |||
protection from hazards, operations, flow paths, pressure boundary, ventilation | |||
boundary, structural, process medium properties, licensing basis, and failure modes for | |||
the modification listed below. The inspectors verified that modification preparation, | |||
staging, and implementation did not impair emergency/abnormal operating procedure | |||
actions, key safety functions, or operator response to loss of key safety functions; | |||
postmodification testing will maintain the plant in a safe configuration during testing by | |||
verifying that unintended system interactions will not occur, systems, structures and | |||
components performance characteristics still meet the design basis, the | |||
appropriateness of modification design assumptions, and the modification test | |||
acceptance criteria will be met; and licensee personnel identified and implemented | |||

The inspector sampled licensee submittals for the Occupational Radiological | |||
Occurrences performance indicator for the first quarter of 2009 through the third quarter | |||
of 2009. To determine the accuracy of the performance indicator data reported during | |||
those periods, performance indicator definitions and guidance contained in NEI | |||
Document 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 5, | |||
were used. The inspector reviewed the licensees assessment of the performance | |||
indicator for occupational radiation safety to determine if indicator related data was | |||
adequately assessed and reported. To assess the adequacy of the licensees | |||
performance indicator data collection and analyses, the inspector discussed with | |||
radiation protection staff, the scope and breadth of its data review, and the results of | |||
those reviews. The inspector independently reviewed electronic dosimetry dose rate | |||
and accumulated dose alarm and dose reports and the dose assignments for any | |||
intakes that occurred during the time period reviewed to determine if there were | |||
potentially unrecognized occurrences. The inspector also conducted walkdowns of | |||
numerous locked high and very high radiation area entrances to determine the adequacy | |||
of the controls in place for these areas. | |||

determine the accuracy of the performance indicator data reported during those periods, | |||
performance indicator definitions and guidance contained in NEI Document 99-02, | |||
Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 5, was used. The | |||
inspector reviewed the licensees issue report database and selected individual reports | |||
generated since this indicator was last reviewed to identify any potential occurrences | |||
such as unmonitored, uncontrolled, or improperly calculated effluent releases that may | |||
have impacted offsite dose. The inspector reviewed gaseous effluent summary data and | |||
the results of associated offsite dose calculations for selected dates during the third | |||
quarter of 2009 to determine if indicator results were accurately reported. The inspector | |||
also reviewed the licensees methods for quantifying gaseous and liquid effluents and | |||
determining effluent dose. Additionally, the inspector reviewed the licensees historical | |||
10 CFR Part 50.75(g) file and selectively reviewed the licensees analysis for discharge | |||
pathways resulting from a spill, leak, or unexpected liquid discharge focusing on those | |||
incidents which occurred over the last few years. | |||

Routine Review of Identification and Resolution of Problems | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
As part of the various baseline inspection procedures discussed in previous sections of | |||
this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities | |||
and plant status reviews to verify that they were being entered into the licensees | |||
corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being | |||
given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and | |||
addressed. The inspectors reviewed attributes that included: the complete and | |||
accurate identification of the problem; the timely correction, commensurate with the | |||
safety significance; the evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic | |||
implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent of condition | |||
- 19 - | |||
Enclosure | |||
reviews, and previous occurrences reviews; and the classification, prioritization, focus, | |||
and timeliness of corrective. Minor issues entered into the licensees corrective action | |||
program because of the inspectors observations are included in the attached list of | |||
documents reviewed. | |||
These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute | |||
any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure, they were considered an | |||
integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter and documented in | |||
Section 1 of this report. | |||

Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific | |||
human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of | |||
items entered into the licensees corrective action program. The inspectors | |||
accomplished this through review of the stations daily corrective action documents. | |||
.3 | The inspectors performed these daily reviews as part of their daily plant status | ||
monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples. | |||
b. | |||
Findings | |||
No findings of significance were identified. | |||
.3 | |||
Semi-Annual Trend Review | |||
a. | |||
Inspection Scope | |||
The inspectors performed a review of the licensees corrective action program and | |||
associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more | |||
significant safety issue. The inspectors focused their review on repetitive equipment | |||
issues, but also considered the results of daily corrective action item screening | |||
discussed in Section 4OA2.2, above, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human | |||
performance results. The inspectors nominally considered the 6-month period of | |||
January 2009 through July 2009, for a review of Operating Experience Smart Sample: | |||
OpESS FY2009-02, A Negative trend and Recurring Events Involving feedwater | |||
systems as it applies to the emergency feedwater system. | |||
The inspectors also included issues documented outside the normal corrective action | |||
program in major equipment problem lists, repetitive and/or rework maintenance lists, | |||
departmental problem/challenges lists, system health reports, quality assurance | |||
audit/surveillance reports, self-assessment reports, and Maintenance Rule assessments. | |||
The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the | |||
licensees corrective action program trending reports. Corrective actions associated with | |||

Subject:
WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT 3 - NRC INTEGRATED
INSPECTION REPORT 05000382/2009-004
Dear Mr. Kowalewski:
On October 7, 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission completed an inspection at your
Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3. The enclosed integrated inspection report documents
the inspection findings, which were discussed on October 1, 2009, with you and other members
of your staff.
The inspections examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and
compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed
personnel.
This report documents one NRC identified finding of very low safety significance (Green). This
finding was determined to involve a violation of NRC requirements. However, because of the
very low safety significance and because it was entered into your corrective action program, the
NRC is treating this finding as a noncited violation, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC
Enforcement Policy. If you contest the violation or the significance of the noncited violation, you
should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for
your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk,
Washington, D.C. 20555-0001, with copies to the Regional Administrator, U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Region IV, 612 E. Lamar Blvd, Suite 400, Arlington, Texas,
76011-4125; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Waterford Steam Electric
Station, Unit 3 facility. In addition, if you disagree with the characterization of any finding in this
report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with
the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region IV, and the NRC
Resident Inspector at Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3. The information you provide will
be considered in accordance with Inspection Manual chapter 0305.

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000382/2009004; July 8, 2009 through October 7, 2009; Waterford Steam Electric Station,
Unit 3; Operability Evaluations.
The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced
baseline inspections by regional based inspectors. One Green noncited violation of significance
was identified. 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 review. The NRC's program for overseeing
the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor
Oversight Process, Revision 4, dated December 2006.
A.
NRC-Identified Findings and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
Green. The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation of technical specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation. The technical specifications require all four
channels (A, B, C, and D) of local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio,
and reactor coolant flow instruments to be operable when in Mode 1. These Channel B
instruments require an input from the Channel B log power instrument, which was
previously declared inoperable. With the Channel B log power instrument inoperable,
the Channel B local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, and reactor
coolant flow instruments should also have been declared inoperable. The licensee
entered this finding in their corrective action program as condition reports CR-WF3-
2009-4401 and CR-WF3-2009-4407.
The failure to either trip or bypass the inoperable channels within one hour was more
than minor because it affected the configuration control attribute of the mitigating
systems cornerstone. Specifically, deliberate operator action was required to ensure that
proper reactor protection system coincidence and reliability were maintained. Also, if left
uncorrected, the potential existed for Channel B reactor protective trips to be
inadvertently removed while at power. The failure to meet the technical specifications
was considered to be of very low safety significance (Green), since there was no actual
loss of safety function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the decision-making
component of the human performance area because the licensee failed to verify the
validity of underlying assumptions and identify unintended consequences of failing to
comply with technical specification 3.3.1 by declaring the log power Channel B
inoperable and not placing local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio,
and reactor coolant flow instrument channels in either bypass or trip condition (H.1.b).

to identify any discrepancies that could affect the function of the system, and, therefore,
potentially increase risk. The inspectors reviewed applicable operating procedures,
system diagrams, Updated Final Safety Analysis Report, technical specification
requirements, administrative technical specifications, outstanding work orders, condition
reports, and the impact of ongoing work activities on redundant trains of equipment in
order to identify conditions that could have rendered the systems incapable of
performing their intended functions. The inspectors also walked down accessible
portions of the systems to verify system components and support equipment were
aligned correctly and operable. The inspectors examined the material condition of the
components and observed operating parameters of equipment to verify that there were
no obvious deficiencies. The inspectors also verified that the licensee had properly
identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events
or impact the capability of mitigating systems or barriers and entered them into the
corrective action program with the appropriate significance characterization. Specific

- 8 -
Enclosure
The inspectors selected these potential operability issues based on the risk-significance
of the associated components and systems. The inspectors evaluated the technical
adequacy of the evaluations to ensure that technical specification operability was
properly justified and the subject component or system remained available such that no
unrecognized increase in risk occurred. The inspectors compared the operability and
design criteria in the appropriate sections of the technical specifications and Updated
Safety Analysis Report to the licensees evaluations, to determine whether the
components or systems were operable. Where compensatory measures were required
to maintain operability, the inspectors determined whether the measures in place would
function as intended and were properly controlled. The inspectors determined, where
appropriate, compliance with bounding limitations associated with the evaluations.
Additionally, the inspectors also reviewed a sampling of corrective action documents to
verify that the licensee was identifying and correcting any deficiencies associated with
operability evaluations. Specific documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in
the attachment.
These activities constitute completion of four operability evaluations inspection samples
as defined in Inspection Procedure 71111.15-05
b.
Findings
Introduction: The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation of technical
specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation. The technical specifications
require all four channels (A, B, C, and D) of local power density, departure from nucleate
boiling ratio, and reactor coolant flow instruments to be operable when in Mode 1.
These Channel B instruments require an input from the Channel B log power instrument,
which was previously declared inoperable. With the Channel B log power instrument
inoperable, the Channel B local power density, departure from nucleate boiling ratio, and
reactor coolant flow instruments should also have been declared inoperable.
Description: On Aug 20, 2009, the inspector observed the performance of procedure
MI-003-126, Revision 14, Core Protection Calculator Functional. During the
performance of the test procedure, the inspector noted that CPC Channel B high log
power trip was bypassed. The inspector asked why technical specification 3.3.1 had not
been entered due to the inoperable log power Channel B instrument. Technical
specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation, requires that the reactor
protective instrumentation channels and bypasses contained in Table 3.3-1 be operable
in accordance with the requirements of the table. Table 3.3-1 requires all four channels
of local power density (LPD), departure from nucleate boiling ratio (DNBR), and reactor
coolant flow instruments to be operable in Mode 1.
Log power Channel B provides a high log power automatic bypass removal signal for
LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow instrumentation channels. Technical specification 3.3.1, Table 3.3-1 requires the high log power bypass shall be automatically removed
when reactor power is greater than or equal to 10-4% of rated thermal power. When in
Mode 1, reactor power is greater than 10-4% of rated thermal power. The inspectors
determined that when a log power instrument is out of service, the automatic removal of
the high log power bypass function is inoperable and thus the associated protective
channels of LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow are also inoperable.
- 9 -
Enclosure
The log power Channel B instrument was originally declared inoperable on Sept 1, 2008.
The operability determination concluded that since the plant was in Mode 4, only two log
power channels were required, therefore entry into technical specification 3.3.1 was not
required. On Sept 9, 2008, the plant entered Mode 2 with log power Channel B still
inoperable. The operability was not revised to reflect the change in plant conditions. In
accordance with technical specification 3.3.1, operators should have taken action to
place the associated LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow protective channels to either
bypass or trip within one hour.
On Aug 22, 2009, after considering the inspectors question, the licensee declared LPD
Channel B and DNBR Channel B inoperable, and placed both instruments in bypass.
During a subsequent control room tour, the inspector verified that LPD and DNBR were
bypassed, however noticed that reactor coolant flow Channel B had not been bypassed.
The inspector asked the shift manager if technical specification 3.3.1, Table 3.3-1
notation (C) affected any other trips. Upon further assessment, operations personnel
determined that reactor coolant low flow was also affected and declared steam
generator flow Channel B to be inoperable, as well.
Analysis: The failure to either trip or bypass the inoperable channels within one hour
was more than minor because it affected the configuration control attribute of the
mitigating systems cornerstone. Specifically, deliberate operator action was required to
ensure that proper reactor protection system coincidence and reliability were maintained.
Also, if left uncorrected, the potential existed for Channel B reactor protective trips to be
inadvertently removed while at power. The failure to meet the technical specifications
was considered to be of very low safety significance (Green), since there was no actual
loss of safety function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the decision-making
component of the human performance area because the licensee failed to verify the
validity of underlying assumptions and identify unintended consequences of failing to
comply with technical specification 3.3.1 by declaring the log power Channel B
inoperable and not placing DNBR, LPD, and reactor coolant flow channels in either
bypass or trip condition (H.1.b).
Enforcement: Technical specification 3.3.1, Reactor Protective Instrumentation,
requires all four channels of LPD, DNBR, and reactor coolant flow to be operable and
able to have the high log power bypass automatically removed when reactor power is
greater than or equal to 10-4% percent of rated thermal power. Contrary to this, on
September 9, 2008, the licensee did not comply with the limiting condition for operation
action statement for technical specification 3.3.1 which states, the inoperable channel is
placed in either the bypassed or tripped condition within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. The plant remained in
this condition until August 22, 2009. This violation has been determined to be of very
low safety significance and was entered into their corrective action program in condition
reports CR-WF3-2009-4401 and CR-WF3-2009-4407. Therefore, this violation is being
treated as a non-cited violation (NCV), consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC

1R18 Plant Modifications (71111.18)
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the following temporary/permanent modifications to verify that
the safety functions of important safety systems were not degraded:
August 26, 2009: Permanent modification of containment vacuum relief valves
such that once the valves are automatically opened, they remain open until
manually closed.
August 7, 2009: Temporary modification to revise the setpoint for the reactor
coolant Pump 2A upper thrust bearing high temperature alarm to reduce

31 with a new cell. The old Cell 31 was left in place and jumpered around, while
the new Cell 31 was installed at the end of the battery rack.
The inspectors reviewed the temporary modification and the associated safety
evaluation screening against the system design bases documentation, including the
Updated Final Safety Analysis Report and the technical specifications, and verified that
the modification did not adversely affect the system operability/availability. The
inspectors also verified that the installation and restoration were consistent with the
modification documents and that configuration control was adequate. Additionally, the
inspectors verified that the temporary modification was identified on control room
drawings, appropriate tags were placed on the affected equipment, and licensee
personnel evaluated the combined effects on mitigating systems and the integrity of
radiological barriers.
The inspectors reviewed key affected parameters associated with energy needs,
materials/replacement components, timing, heat removal, control signals, equipment
protection from hazards, operations, flow paths, pressure boundary, ventilation
boundary, structural, process medium properties, licensing basis, and failure modes for
the modification listed below. The inspectors verified that modification preparation,
staging, and implementation did not impair emergency/abnormal operating procedure
actions, key safety functions, or operator response to loss of key safety functions;
postmodification testing will maintain the plant in a safe configuration during testing by
verifying that unintended system interactions will not occur, systems, structures and
components performance characteristics still meet the design basis, the
appropriateness of modification design assumptions, and the modification test
acceptance criteria will be met; and licensee personnel identified and implemented
appropriate corrective actions associated with permanent plant modifications. Specific
documents reviewed during this inspection are listed in the attachment.

database to determine if any problems had been identified with the performance
indicator data collected or transmitted for this indicator and none were identified.
Specific documents reviewed are described in the attachment to this report.
These activities constitute completion of one mitigating systems performance index
cooling water system sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71151-05.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

Occupational Exposure Control Effectiveness (OR01)
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspector sampled licensee submittals for the Occupational Radiological
Occurrences performance indicator for the first quarter of 2009 through the third quarter
of 2009. To determine the accuracy of the performance indicator data reported during
those periods, performance indicator definitions and guidance contained in NEI
Document 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 5,
were used. The inspector reviewed the licensees assessment of the performance
indicator for occupational radiation safety to determine if indicator related data was
adequately assessed and reported. To assess the adequacy of the licensees
performance indicator data collection and analyses, the inspector discussed with
radiation protection staff, the scope and breadth of its data review, and the results of
those reviews. The inspector independently reviewed electronic dosimetry dose rate
and accumulated dose alarm and dose reports and the dose assignments for any
intakes that occurred during the time period reviewed to determine if there were
potentially unrecognized occurrences. The inspector also conducted walkdowns of
numerous locked high and very high radiation area entrances to determine the adequacy
of the controls in place for these areas.
These activities constitute completion of the occupational radiological occurrences
sample as defined in Inspection Procedure 71151-05.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual
Radiological Effluent Occurrences (PR01)
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspector sampled licensee submittals for the Radiological Effluent Technical
Specifications/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Radiological Effluent Occurrences
performance indicator for the first quarter of 2009 through the third quarter of 2009. To
determine the accuracy of the performance indicator data reported during those periods,
performance indicator definitions and guidance contained in NEI Document 99-02,
Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 5, was used. The
inspector reviewed the licensees issue report database and selected individual reports
generated since this indicator was last reviewed to identify any potential occurrences
such as unmonitored, uncontrolled, or improperly calculated effluent releases that may
have impacted offsite dose. The inspector reviewed gaseous effluent summary data and
the results of associated offsite dose calculations for selected dates during the third
quarter of 2009 to determine if indicator results were accurately reported. The inspector
also reviewed the licensees methods for quantifying gaseous and liquid effluents and
determining effluent dose. Additionally, the inspector reviewed the licensees historical
10 CFR Part 50.75(g) file and selectively reviewed the licensees analysis for discharge
pathways resulting from a spill, leak, or unexpected liquid discharge focusing on those
incidents which occurred over the last few years.
These activities constitute completion of the radiological effluent technical
specifications/offsite dose calculation manual radiological effluent occurrences sample
as defined in Inspection Procedure 71151-05.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
4OA2 Identification and Resolution of Problems (71152)
Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, Emergency
Preparedness, Public Radiation Safety, Occupational Radiation Safety, and Physical
Protection
.1
Routine Review of Identification and Resolution of Problems
a.
Inspection Scope
As part of the various baseline inspection procedures discussed in previous sections of
this report, the inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities
and plant status reviews to verify that they were being entered into the licensees
corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, that adequate attention was being
given to timely corrective actions, and that adverse trends were identified and
addressed. The inspectors reviewed attributes that included: the complete and
accurate identification of the problem; the timely correction, commensurate with the
safety significance; the evaluation and disposition of performance issues, generic
implications, common causes, contributing factors, root causes, extent of condition
- 19 -
Enclosure
reviews, and previous occurrences reviews; and the classification, prioritization, focus,
and timeliness of corrective. Minor issues entered into the licensees corrective action
program because of the inspectors observations are included in the attached list of
documents reviewed.
These routine reviews for the identification and resolution of problems did not constitute
any additional inspection samples. Instead, by procedure, they were considered an
integral part of the inspections performed during the quarter and documented in
Section 1 of this report.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.2
Daily Corrective Action Program Reviews
a.
Inspection Scope
In order to assist with the identification of repetitive equipment failures and specific
human performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of
items entered into the licensees corrective action program. The inspectors
accomplished this through review of the stations daily corrective action documents.
The inspectors performed these daily reviews as part of their daily plant status
monitoring activities and, as such, did not constitute any separate inspection samples.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
.3
Semi-Annual Trend Review
a.
Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a review of the licensees corrective action program and
associated documents to identify trends that could indicate the existence of a more
significant safety issue. The inspectors focused their review on repetitive equipment
issues, but also considered the results of daily corrective action item screening
discussed in Section 4OA2.2, above, licensee trending efforts, and licensee human
performance results. The inspectors nominally considered the 6-month period of
January 2009 through July 2009, for a review of Operating Experience Smart Sample:
OpESS FY2009-02, A Negative trend and Recurring Events Involving feedwater
systems as it applies to the emergency feedwater system.
The inspectors also included issues documented outside the normal corrective action
program in major equipment problem lists, repetitive and/or rework maintenance lists,
departmental problem/challenges lists, system health reports, quality assurance
audit/surveillance reports, self-assessment reports, and Maintenance Rule assessments.
The inspectors compared and contrasted their results with the results contained in the
licensees corrective action program trending reports. Corrective actions associated with
- 20 -
Enclosure
- 21 -
Enclosure
a sample of the issues identified in the licensees trending reports were reviewed for
adequacy.
These activities constitute completion of one single semi-annual trend inspection sample
as defined in Inspection Procedure 71152-05.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
4OA5 Other Activities
.1
Quarterly Resident Inspector Observations of Security Personnel and Activities
a.
Inspection Scope
During the inspection period, the inspectors performed observations of security force
personnel and activities to ensure that the activities were consistent with Waterford
Steam Electric Station security procedures and regulatory requirements relating to
nuclear plant security. These observations took place during both normal and off-normal
plant working hours.
These quarterly resident inspector observations of security force personnel and activities
did not constitute any additional inspection samples. Rather, they were considered an
integral part of the inspectors normal plant status review and inspection activities.
b.
Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
