SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000317/2007-003, 05000318/2007-003; 04/01/2007 - 6/30/2007; Calvert Cliffs NuclearPower Plant, Units 1 and 2: Equipment Alignment, Maintenance Rule, Problem Identification and Resolution, and Event Follow-up.The report covered a three-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announcedinspections performed by regional inspectors. Five Green findings were identified, all of which were determined to be non-cited violations (NCVs). The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC)0609, "Significance Determination Process" (SDP). Findings for which the SDP 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 and Self-Revealing Findings
Cornerstone: Initiating Events
- Green.
A self-revealing NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI,"Corrective Action," occurred because Constellation did not implement adequate corrective actions for a significant condition adverse to quality associated with the slow closure of a pressurizer power operated relief valve (PORV) due to a main disc guide being out of round. Specifically, Constellation did not perform an extent of condition review from a February 2006 event such that corrective actions would preclude recurrence of the issue. Subsequently, during a Unit 2 reactor trip on November 16, 2006, a PORV remained open longer than expected and resulted in a safety injection actuation signal. Constellation entered this issue into the corrective action program (CAP) for resolution.
Immediate corrective actions for this issue included replacement of the main disc guide and an extent of condition review of the remaining PORVs on Unit 1 and Unit 2.This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the equipmentperformance attribute of the Initiating Events cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that challenge critical safety functions. Inspectors evaluated the significance of the finding using an SDP Phase 2 analysis and determined the issue was of very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because Constellation did not thoroughly evaluate an equipment malfunction such that the extent of condition was considered and the cause resolved (P.1.c of IMC 0305). (Section 4OA2.4)*Green. The inspectors identified a NCV of Technical Specifications (TS) 5.4.1.a,Administrative Controls, because Constellation did not maintain equipment alignment in accordance with site procedures during drain and fill of the reactor coolant system (RCS). Specifically, operations personnel did not verify a reactor ivlevel instrument inlet valve shut prior to the vacuum fill of the RCS contrary toOperating Procedure (OP)-7, Shutdown Operations, and Operating Instruction (OI)-1A, Reactor Coolant System and Pump Operation. This allowed air to enter the in-service RCS level instrumentation lines causing a loss of all level indication for a period of approximately five hours while in reduced inventory.
Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as IRE-021-661 and IRE-022-119.
The immediate corrective actions included restoration of RCS level from a reduced inventory condition and a prompt investigation to determine the cause of the loss of all level indication.This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the InitiatingEvent cornerstone attribute of configuration control and affects the likelihood of a loss of shutdown cooling event. The inspectors evaluated the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations SDP" and Appendix H, "Containment Integrity SDP," because it represented an actual loss of level indication. Based on the results of the Phase 3 analysis, this finding is determined to have very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because Constellation did not define and effectively communicate expectations regarding procedural compliance such that personnel follow procedures (H.4.b). (Section 4OA3.1)*
- Green.
The inspectors identified a NCV of TS 5.4.1.a, Administrative Controls,when Constellation did not maintain an adequate procedure to drain and fill the RCS. Specifically, OP-7 permitted operation in a reduced RCS inventory condition without requiring redundant means of reactor level indication available.
This is not in accordance with Nuclear Operations Administrative Procedure NO-1-103, Lower Mode Operations and Constellation's commitments in response to NRC Generic Letter (GL) 88-17, Loss of Decay Heat Removal.
Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as IRE-022-121 and immediate corrective actions included the suspension of OP-7 pending resolution of this issue.This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the InitiatingEvent cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown operations.
Specifically, the inadequate procedure for operation in reduced RCS inventory increased the likelihood of the loss of RCS level indication and consequently a loss of residual heat removal (RHR) initiating event. The inspectors determined that this finding was of very low safety significance based on IMC 0609,
Appendix GProperty "Inspection Manual Chapter" (as page type) with input value "NRC Inspection Manual 0609,</br></br>Appendix G" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., Figure 1. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because Constellation did not ensure that the procedure for operation with the RCS in reduced inventory was complete and accurate (H.2.c). (Section 4OA3.2)v
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- Green.
The inspectors identified a NCV of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) becauseConstellation did not demonstrate that performance monitoring of the main steam safety valves (MSSVs) was being effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance. Specifically, in February 2006, Constellation experienced repetitive and numerous issues associated with MSSV lift settings outside specified TSs. However, Constellation did not recognize the unsatisfactory performance monitoring of this system in accordance with the 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) and place the system in (a)(1) status.
Constellation entered this issue into their CAP for resolution.The finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the equipmentperformance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of the MSSVs, which respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences.
The finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. The inspectors also determined that this finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because Constellation did not trend and assess information from the CAP and other assessments to identify programmatic and common cause problems with the MSSVs (P.1.b). (Section 1R12)
Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity
- Green.
The inspectors identified a NCV of TS 3.6.3, Containment IsolationValves, because Constellation did not implement actions as specified in TS3.6.3. Specifically, Constellation did not include all containment isolation valves (CIVs) within the scope of TS requirements, which led to inadequate TS actions being taken for these valves when they became inoperable. Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as IRE-021-913. The planned corrective actions included a review of potential reportable conditions and a standing order for operation personnel to enter TS 3.6.3 for all CIVs as appropriate. This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the configurationcontrol attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers such as containment protects the public from radio nuclide releases caused by accidents or events. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using a SDP Phase 1 and Phase 2 analysis, which required evaluation using IMC 0609,
Appendix HProperty "Inspection Manual Chapter" (as page type) with input value "NRC Inspection Manual 0609,</br></br>Appendix H" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., because some of the inoperable valves identified in the reportability review involved an actual reduction in the defense-in-depth for the atmospheric pressure control of the reactor containment. Based on the results of the Phase 2 analysis, this finding was determined to have very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because Constellation did not take actions to viaddress safety issues in a timely manner, commensurate with their significance(P.1.a). (Section 1R04)

None.

REPORT DETAILS
Summary of Plant StatusCalvert Cliffs Unit 1 began the inspection period at 100 percent reactor power. OnMay 25, 2007, Unit 1 reduced power to 85 percent to perform main turbine valve testing.
Following the completion of the test, Unit 1 restored power to 100 percent and remained there the rest of the inspection period.
Calvert Cliffs Unit 2 began the inspection period in a refueling outage (RFO). On April 5, 2007,Unit 2 was in the process of returning to 100 percent reactor power when it experienced problems with the 21 steam generator feed pump (SGFP). Unit 2 maintained reactor power at 65 percent while repairs were being performed for the 21 SGFP. Following the repairs on April 7, 2007, Unit 2 restored power to 100 percent until the main turbine throttle valve malfunctioned. As a result, Unit 2 reduced power to 75 percent and performed maintenance on the valve before returning to 100 percent power on April 8, 2007, and remained there the rest of the inspection period.1.REACTOR SAFETY Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity1R01Adverse Weather Protection (71111.01 - One sample)Adverse Weather Seasonal Preparations - Hot Weather
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the adverse weather preparations and mitigating strategiesbefore the onset of hot weather operations. This review included an assessment of Nuclear Operations Administrative Procedure NO-1-119, Seasonal Readiness. The inspectors assessed the effectiveness of Constellation's preparations for hot weather and grid related stress conditions to evaluate the site's readiness for seasonal susceptibilities. Risk-significant systems affected by hot weather and grid related stresses were selected for review. The review included the 500 kilowatt (kV) system and the station blackout diesel operations. The inspectors performed a partial walkdown of the onsite and offsite electrical systems. The inspectors interviewed control room operators and system engineers to ensure protective measures applicable to these risk-significant systems were available. This inspection satisfied one inspection sample for review of risk-significant systems during seasonal susceptibilities.
Documents reviewed for each section of this report are listed in the Attachment.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
2Enclosure1R02Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments (71111.02 - 25 samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed eight safety evaluations (SEs) completed since the previousperformance of this inspection. The SEs reviewed were in the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity cornerstones. The selected SEs were reviewed to verify that changes to the facility or procedures as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) were reviewed and documented in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59, and that the safety issues pertinent to the changes were properly resolved or adequately addressed. The reviews also included the verification that the licensee had appropriately concluded that the changes could be accomplished without obtaining license amendments. The inspectors also reviewed 17 screened-out evaluations for changes, tests andexperiments for which Constellation determined that SEs were not required. This review was performed to verify that the site's threshold for performing SEs was consistent with 10 CFR 50.59.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R04 Equipment Alignment
.1 Partial System Alignment
(71111.04Q - Four Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors verified that selected equipment trains of safety-related and risksignificant systems were properly aligned. The inspectors reviewed plant documents to determine the correct system and power alignments, as well as the required positions of critical valves and breakers. The inspectors verified that the licensee had properly identified and resolved equipment alignment problems that could cause initiating events or potentially impact the availability of associated mitigating systems. The inspectors performed a partial walkdown of the following activities:*500 kV system during breaker No. 21 replacement in the electrical switchyardarea;*Unit 2 emergency core cooling system (ECCS) pump room exhaust filtrationsystem during No. 21 and No. 22 exhaust fans filter replacement;*Unit 1 auxiliary feedwater (AFW) system during testing on the Nos. 11 and 13steam and motor driven AFW pumps; and*1A diesel generator (EDG) system due to a crack retaining nut for the EDGradiator breaker.
3Enclosureb.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified..2Complete System Alignment (71111.04S - One Sample)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a complete system walkdown of accessible portions of thelow pressure safety injection (LPSI) system to identify any discrepancies between the existing equipment lineup and the specified lineup. During the walkdown, system drawings and operating instructions were used to verify proper equipment alignment and operational status. The inspectors reviewed open maintenance orders on the system for any deficiencies that could affect the ability of the system to perform its safety function. Inspectors also reviewed unresolved design issues such as temporary modifications, operator workarounds and items tracked by plant engineering to assess their collective impact on system operation. Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the condition report (CR) database to verify that equipment alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved.
b. Findings
Introduction.
The inspectors identified a very low safety significance (Green) NCV of TS3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves, because Constellation did not implement TS 3.6.3 required actions. Specifically, Constellation did not include all containment isolationvalves (CIVs) within the scope of TS requirements, which led to inadequate actions being taken for these valves when they became inoperable.
Description.
On February 25, 2007, a LPSI valve (SI-615) failed its in-servicesurveillance test in the open stroke direction. Following the failure, operators left the valve open to satisfy one of its safety-related functions to provide core cooling upon receipt of a safety injection actuation signal (SIAS). This valve is a dual function valve that accommodates emergency core cooling flow and provides containment isolation.
When operators left the valve opened, Constellation performed a reasonable expectation of continued operability (RECO). The inspectors reviewed the RECO and discovered that Constellation did not consider or enter TS Limiting Condition of Operation (LCO) 3.6.3 for the containment isolation function of the valve. The action in TS LCO 3.6.3 is to verify containment integrity within four hours for a penetration flow path with one containment isolation valve inoperable and not in a closed system. With the valve left in the open position, Constellation did not verify containment integrity within four hours, had no administrative controls in place, or evaluated the consequences for its containment isolation function. The inspectors reviewed the CCNPS' TS Basis and the UFSAR and identified that this issue was not limited to valve SI-615 but included an additional 70 containment isolation valves. The inspectors noted that Figure 5.10 of the CCNPP UFSAR listed SI-615 as a CIV. The inspectors discovered that there were two lists of CIVs in the CCNPP UFSAR.
4EnclosureTable 5.3 of the UFSAR listed CIVs that pertains to Type C local leak rate testing andthe CIVs used with respect to TS 3.6.3.
However, Figure 5.10 contained the other list that included the total population of CIVs in addition to those identified in Table 5.3. The inspectors determined that for valves listed in Figure 5.10, Constellation did not consider or enter TS 3.6.3, as appropriate, or evaluate degraded or nonconforming conditions for the total population of CIVs. Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as IRE-021-913. The planned corrective actions included a review of potential reportable conditions and a standing order for operation personnel to enter TS 3.6.3 for all CIVs as appropriate.The performance deficiency is that Constellation did not implement TS 3.6.3 requiredactions when valves were inoperable because the total population of CIVs were not included in the scope of TS requirements.
Analysis.
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with theconfiguration control attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers such as containment protects the public from radio nuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, Constellation did not include all CIVs in the scope of TS requirements, which led to inadequate TS actions taken for CIVs when they became inoperable. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using SDP Phase 1 of Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609. The finding required further senior risk analyst (SRA) evaluation through IMC 0609, Appendix H, because some of the inoperable valves identified in the reportability review involved an actual reduction in the defense-in-depth for the atmospheric pressure control of the reactor containment. The most limiting case involved an inoperable main feedwater isolation valve (MFIV)because it affected the likelihood of accidents leading to core damage. The dominant core damage sequence with an initiating event of a main steam line break resulted not to contribute to the large early release frequency (LERF). Based on the results of the Phase 2 analysis, this finding was determined to have very low safety significance (Green). The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because Constellation did not identify and take actions to address safety issues in a timely manner, commensurate with their significance (P.1.a).Enforcement.
TS 3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves, requires, in part, that each CIVshall be operable in modes 1, 2, 3, and 4. Contrary to the above, for a 14-year period, Constellation did not implement required actions of TS 3.6.3 when valves were inoperable because the total population of CIVs were not included within the scope of TS requirements. For example, on February 25, 2007, Constellation did not take the required TS actions for an inoperable LPSI valve. Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into Constellation's CAP (IRE-021-913), this violation is being treated as a NCV, consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRCEnforcement Policy. (NCV 05000317; 05000318/2007003-01: Failure to ImplementTS 3.6.3 Required Actions for Containment Isolation Valves)5Enclosure1R05Fire Protection (71111.05Q - 11 Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors conducted a tour of accessible portions of the eleven areas listed below to assess Constellation's control of transient combustible material and ignition sources, fire detection and suppression capabilities, fire barriers, and related compensatory measures when required. The inspectors assessed the material condition of fire protection suppression and detection equipment to determine whether any conditions or deficiencies existed which could impair the availability of that equipment. The eleven areas inspected are as follows:*1A EDG room, fire area EDG1A, room 2;*1B EDG room, fire area 30, room 421;
- 0C EDG room, fire area EDG0C, room SB202;
- Unit 2 AFW pump room, fire area 43, room 605;
- Unit 1 27' Switchgear room, fire area 19, room 317;
- Unit 2 27' Switchgear room, fire area 18, room 311;
- Unit 1 45' Switchgear room, fire area 34, room 430;
- Unit 2 45' Switchgear room, fire area 25, room 407;
- Unit 1 Battery rooms, fire area 16A, rooms 310 and 304;
- Unit 2 Battery rooms, fire area 17A, rooms 305 and 307; and
- Control room complex, fire area 24, room 405
b. Findings
During a fire protection walkdown of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 4kV switchgear rooms, onMay 14, 2007, the inspectors identified a potentially degraded fire barrier between two fire areas. The inspectors noted that the fire barrier penetration was missing a retaining angle around the perimeter of a ventilation duct such that there was an open pathway between the two switchgear rooms. The inspectors also noted that the ventilation duct installation was not consistent with the inspection criteria in the penetration surveillance test procedure, STP-F-592, Penetration Fire Barrier Inspection. The inspectors provided this information to Constellation personnel. On June 6, 2007, Constellation determined that the fire barriers between the 27' and 45' 4kV switchgear rooms for both Unit 1 and Unit 2 were inoperable. Constellation entered a Technical Requirement Manual (TRM) action statement and established hourly fire watches for the inoperable barriers. Constellation also conducted a functional assessment and established compensatory action to control transient combustibles and hotwork in the affected fire areas. Additionally, an extent of condition review discovered that there were additional degraded fire barriers due to the improperly installed fire dampers, which were located in different fire areas. The inspectors identified a noncompliance to the Calvert Cliffs Renewed FacilityOperating License Numbers DPR-53 and DPR-54, License Condition 2.E, because the site's fire dampers were not installed in accordance with vendor instructions as required by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 90A, Air Conditioning and 6EnclosureVentilating Systems. Specifically, License Condition 2.E, requires, in part, thatConstellation is required to implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program as described in the UFSAR for the facility. Section 9.8.3 of the UFSAR states, in part, that the work, equipment, and materials conform to the requirements and recommendations of the NFPA Code, Pamphlet 90A. NFPA 90A states that ventilation containing fire dampers shall be installed in accordance with the vendor's instructions. Contrary to the above, Constellation did not install fire dampers in accordance with vendor instructions.The inspectors determined that the above noncompliance of License Condition 2.E metthe enforcement discretion criteria specified in the NRC Enforcement Policy. The NRC Enforcement Policy, Interim Enforcement Policies, "Interim Enforcement Policy Regarding Enforcement Discretion for Certain Fire Protection Issues (10 CFR 50.48),"
states, in part, that enforcement discretion may be exercised if a noncompliance is identified during the transition period to NFPA 805 and it is not associated with a finding of high safety significance (Red). Specifically, although the NRC identified the concern, it is likely that Constellation would have identified and corrected this issue as part of their transition to NFPA 805. Constellation entered the issue into their CAP, implemented appropriate compensatory measures, determined the violation was not of high safety significance, and would not likely have identified the issue by routine licensee efforts.
The NRC determined there was no willful violation. Therefore, the NRC will not take any enforcement actions for this noncompliance because the conditions for this noncompliance meet the enforcement discretion criteria specified in the NRC Enforcement Policy.
1R06 Flood Protection
(71111.06 - Two Samples)Internal Flooding
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed flood protection measures associated with internal floodevents. These events were described in the Calvert Cliffs' Engineering Standard (ES)-001, the Individual Plant Examination (IPE), and the UFSAR. The inspectors performed a walkdown of the following two areas that contain risk significant systems and components: Unit 1 27' Switchgear Room, Room 317 and Unit 1 AFW Pump Room, Room 605. The inspectors observed the condition of watertight doors, drain systems, penetrations in floors and walls, and safety-related instrumentation located in these areas.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
7Enclosure1R07Heat Sink (7111107A - One Sample)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors observed the 22B service water heat exchanger during a routinecleaning and inspection. The inspectors reviewed the performance data and evaluated the test acceptance criteria from a previous completed test to ensure that design basis requirements were satisfied. The inspectors also evaluated existing heat transfer capabilities based on completed flow verification test results to ensure that specific safety functions could be performed in accordance with design specifications. The inspectors also reviewed Calvert Cliffs' periodic maintenance methods to verify that they conformed to the guidelines delineated in Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
Report NP-7552, "Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Guidelines."
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1R11 Licensed Operator Requalification Program
(71111.11Q - One Sample)
a. Inspection Scope
On May 15, 2007, the inspectors observed a licensed operator requalification trainingscenario to assess operator performance and the adequacy of the licensed operator training program. The training scenario involved component failures such as a degraded heater drain tank and a dropped control element assembly (CEA) requiring operators to implement abnormal operating procedures (AOP) -3G and 1B, respectively.
Upon recovery of the dropped CEA, a partial loop occurred resulting in a reactor trip and two CEAs failed to insert. The inspectors focused on high-risk operator actions performed during implementation of emergency operating procedures (EOP), AOP, and classification of the event. The inspectors evaluated the clarity and formality of communications, the completion of appropriate actions in response to alarms, the performance of timely control board operations and manipulations, and the oversight and direction provided by the shift manager.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.

b. Findings
Failure to Demonstrate that the MSSV Performance Was Being Effectively Controlledper 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2)Introduction. The inspectors identified a very low safety significance (Green) NCV of 10CFR 50.65(a)(2) because Constellation did not demonstrate that performance monitoring of the MSSVs was being effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance. Constellation experienced repetitive and numerous issues associated with MSSV lift settings outside specified TSs. However, Constellation did not recognize the unsatisfactory performance monitoring of this system in accordance with the 10 CFR 50.65(a)(2) and place the system in (a)(1) status.
Description.
In March of 2004, two MSSVs on Unit 1 experienced as-found valve liftsettings that exceeded TS limits for valve lift setting. In February 2005, Unit 2 experienced three as-found MSSV high lift settings outside specified TS limits. In February 2006, Constellation performed the same TS surveillance test as in 2004 and 2005 on the Unit 1 MSSVs. The as-found setpoints for five of the sixteen valves exceeded specified TS limits for the individual valve lift setting. These high valve lift settings were determined to be from improper as-left valve setting. However, the lift settings did not exceed Constellation's established maintenance rule (MR) performance criteria for the MSSVs. The inspectors questioned the technical justification of the established performance criteria based on industry operating experience and overall system performance. This issue was tracked as an unresolved item (URI) that needed additional information. Constellation initiated IRE-019-372 to evaluate the technical basis for the MSSVs (a)(2) performance criteria.
9EnclosureConstellation concluded that the MR performance criteria for the MSSVs should be setbased on the TS limits such that the valves could be effectively controlled and monitored through appropriate preventive maintenance. As a result, the MSSVs for Unit 1 exceeded the performance criteria threshold based on the February 2006 TS surveillance test, with more than three maintenance rule functional failures (MRFF).
The inspectors determined that Constellation had an opportunity to recognize that the failure of five of the sixteen MSSVs constituted an unacceptable equipment performance requiring action in accordance with the maintenance rule.
However, Constellation did not establish goals or monitor the performance of the MSSVs per 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) or justify remaining in (a)(2) at that time. Additionally, in November of 2006, Constellation conducted an assessment of the MSSVs performance criteria threshold as a part of their (a)(3) periodic assessment and concluded that the performance criteria threshold for the MSSVs was set at an appropriate level. The inspectors noted that this was another missed opportunity for Constellation to have identified that the MSSV warranted (a)(1) status for five of the sixteen MSSVs that had lifts that exceeded specified TS limits. The inspectors noted that additional opportunities existed to identify the inadequate performance criteria during MSSVs high lifts in 2004 and 2005 on both Unit 1 and Unit 2. On June 11, 2007, Constellation completed an evaluation of the MSSVs for 10 CFR50.65(a)(1) status and determined that (a)(1) status was not warranted because the corrective actions for the high lifts had been completed for the MRFFs that occurred in February of 2006. Constellation determined the most likely cause was due to as-left valve setting process error with contributing causes being setpoint drift, disc to seat oxide bonding, and micro galling. The corrective actions included an adjustment of the valves, lifting the Unit 2 valves mid-cycle and a change in testing methodology and vendor. Based on completion of these corrective actions the inspectors determined that (a)(1) status is not warranted at this time. The performance deficiency is that Constellation did not demonstrate effective control ofthe performance or condition of the MSSVs in accordance with 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2).
Analysis.
The finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the equipmentperformance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using SDP Phase 1 of IMC 0609, Appendix A.
The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green)because the finding is not a design or qualification deficiency, does not represent a loss of a system safety function or safety function of a single train, and does not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. The inspectors also determined that this finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because Constellation did not trend and assess information from the CAP and other assessments to identify programmatic and common cause problems with the MSSVs (P.1.b).
10EnclosureEnforcement. Paragraph (a)(1) of 10 CFR 50.65, requires, in part, that the holders of anoperating license shall monitor the performance or condition of structures, systems, or components (SSC)s within the scope of the rule as defined by 10 CFR 50.65 (b),
against licensee-established goals, in a manner sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that SSCs are capable of fulfilling their functions. Paragraph (a)(2) of 10 CFR 50.65 states, in part, that monitoring as specified in 10 CFR 50.65(a)(1) is not required where it has been demonstrated that the performance or condition of an SSC is being effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance, such that the SSC remains capable of performing its intended function.Contrary to the above, Constellation did not demonstrate that the performance orcondition of the MSSVs had been effectively controlled through the performance of appropriate preventive maintenance and did not monitor against licensee-established goals. Specifically, repetitive problems associated with the MSSVs from March 2004 to February 2006 demonstrated that MSSV performance was not being effectively controlled per 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2). Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into Constellation's CAP (IRE-019-372, IRE-011-601, IRE-021-038), this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRCEnforcement Policy.

a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed one temporary modification, Unit 2 removed temperatureelement (2-TE-112HC) input to reactor protection system (RPS) channel C(TA-2-07-0011), to verify that the safety system did not depart from the design basis and system established criteria. The inspectors reviewed the associated 10 CFR 50.59 screening against the system design bases documentation, including the UFSAR and TS. The inspectors walked down the modification to verify that proper configuration control was maintained to ensure continued system operability. In addition, the inspectors verified that Constellation controlled the modification in accordance with the requirements of procedure MD-1-100, Temporary Alterations.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.Cornerstone: Emergency Preparedness (EP)1EP6Drill Evaluation (71114.06 - Two Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors observed an EP exercise on May 30, 2007. The inspectors observed theemergency response organization performance at the technical support center. The inspectors verified that the classification, notification, and protective action recommendations were accurate and timely. Additionally, the inspectors assessed the ability of Constellation's evaluators to adequately address operator performance deficiencies identified during the exercise. The inspectors observed a control room simulator training exercise conducted onMay 15, 2007, to assess licensed operators performance in the area of EP. This training exercise focused on equipment failures and operator challenges that would typically exist during a partial loss of offsite power and stuck opened pressurizer safety valve. The required procedural transitions and associated event classifications were observed and evaluated by the inspectors.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.2.RADIATION SAFETYCornerstone: Public Radiation Safety2PS1Radioactive Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Treatment and Monitoring Systems (7112201- 11 Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the most current Radiological Effluent Release Report to verifythat the program was implemented as described in Radiological Effluent TechnicalSpecification/Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (RETS/ODCM); reviewed the report for significant changes to the ODCM and to radioactive waste system design and operation; determined whether the changes to the ODCM were made in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.109 and NUREG-0133 and were technically justified and documented; determined whether the modifications made to radioactive waste system design and operation changed the dose consequence to the public; verified that technical and/or 10 CFR 50.59 reviews were performed when required; and, determined whether radioactive liquid and gaseous effluent radiation monitor setpoint calculation methodology changed since completion of the modifications. The inspectors assessed whether anomalous results reported in the current Radiological Effluent Release Report were adequately resolved. The inspectors reviewed RETS/ODCM to identify the effluent radiation monitoring systems (RMS) and its flow measurement devices; reviewed effluent radiological occurrence performance indicator incidents for onsite follow-up; reviewed licensee self-assessments, audits, and licensee event reports that involved unanticipated offsite releases of radioactive material; and, reviewed the UFSAR description of all radioactive waste systems. The inspectors reviewed the RETS/ODCM to identify the programs for identifying potential contaminated spills and leakage and the process for control and assessment.The inspectors walked down the major components of the gaseous and liquid releasesystems (e.g., radiation and flow monitors, demineralizers and filters, tanks, and vessels) to observe current system configuration with respect to the description in the UFSAR, ongoing activities, and equipment material condition.The inspectors reviewed several radioactive liquid and gaseous waste release permits,including the projected doses to members of the public. The inspectors reviewed the records of any abnormal releases or releases made with inoperable effluent radiation monitors and reviewed the station's actions for these releases to ensure an adequate defense-in-depth was maintained against an unmonitored, unanticipated release of radioactive material to the environment. For unmonitored releases, the inspectors reviewed the evaluations of the type and amount of radioactive material that was released and the associated projected doses to members of the public. Additionally, for any areas where spills, leaks, or other unusual occurrences have occurred, the 15Enclosureinspectors verified that these areas have been properly documented in the site'sdecommissioning file, as required.The inspectors assessed the station's understanding of the location and construction ofunderground pipes and tanks, and storage pools that contain radioactive contaminated liquids. The inspectors evaluated if Constellation may have potential unmonitored leakage of contaminated fluids to the groundwater as a result of degrading material conditions or aging of facilities. The inspectors appraised the site's capabilities of detecting spills or leaks and of identifying groundwater radiological contamination both on-site and beyond the owner controlled area. The inspectors reviewed the site's technical bases for its onsite groundwater monitoring program. The inspectors discussed with station personnel their understanding of groundwater flow patterns for the site, and in the event of a spill or leak of radioactive material, verified that the staff can estimate the pathway of a plume of contaminated fluid both on site and beyond the owner controlled area. The inspectors discussed with Constellation representatives regarding the actions taken to identify, analyze and mitigate the plume of tritium which developed just northwest of the Unit 1 turbine building. Constellation assessment determined that this plume most likely occurred in 2000 following the opening of a sink hole in the area.The inspectors reviewed changes made by Constellation to the ODCM as well as to theliquid or gaseous radioactive waste system design, procedures, or operation since the last inspection. For each system modification and each ODCM revision that impacted effluent monitoring or release controls, the inspectors reviewed the technical justification to determine whether the changes affect the station's ability to maintain effluents as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) and whether changes made to monitoring instrumentation resulted in a non-representative monitoring of effluents.The inspectors reviewed a selection of monthly, quarterly, and annual dose calculationsto ensure that the licensee had properly calculated the offsite dose from radiological effluent releases and to determine if any annual RETS/ODCM values (i.e., Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50) were exceeded and, if appropriate, issued a Performance Indicator (PI)report if any quarterly values were exceeded.The inspectors reviewed air cleaning system surveillance test results and site-specificmethodology to ensure that the system is operating within the acceptance criteria. The inspectors also reviewed surveillance test results and methodology the station uses to determine the stack and vent flow rates and verified that the flow rates are consistent with RETS/ODCM or UFSAR values. The inspectors reviewed records of RMS instrument calibrations performed since thelast inspection for each point of discharge effluent radiation monitor and flow measurement device. The inspectors reviewed any completed system modifications and the current effluent radiation monitor alarm setpoint value for agreement with RETS/ODCM requirements. The inspectors also reviewed calibration records of radiation measurement (i.e., counting room) instrumentation associated with effluent monitoring and release activities and reviewed quality control records for the radiation measurement instruments.
16EnclosureThe inspectors reviewed the results of the interlaboratory comparison program to verifythe quality of radioactive effluent sample analyses performed by the licensee; reviewed the licensee's quality control evaluation of the interlaboratory comparison test and associated corrective actions for any deficiencies identified; and reviewed the results from the licensee's Quality Assurance (QA) audits and determined that the licensee met the requirements of the RETS/ODCM.The inspectors reviewed the licensee's even reports (LERs), Special Reports, audits,and self-assessments related to the RETS/ODCM program performed since the last inspection. The inspectors determined that identified problems were entered into the corrective action program for resolution. The inspector also reviewed problem notifications affecting RETS/ODCM.

17Enclosure4OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems (71152 - Three Samples).1Review of Items Entered Into the Corrective Action Program (CAP)The inspectors performed a daily screening of items entered into Constellation's CAP asrequired by Inspection Plant (IP) 71152, "Identification and Resolution of Problems."
The review facilitated the identification of potentially repetitive equipment failures or specific human performance issues for follow-up inspection. This was accomplished by reviewing the description of each new condition report and attending screening meetings..2Semi-Annual Trend Review
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed a semiannual review to identify trends that might indicate theexistence of a more significant safety issue. The inspectors reviewed CCNPP Units 1 and 2 performance indicator monthly reports, CRs, system health reports, quality assurance audits, self-assessment reports, maintenance reports, and NRC IRs and interviewed key personnel to evaluate if a trend existed.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.
The inspectors documented a trend related to problems Constellation has encounteredin maintaining configuration control during tagging related activities in NRC inspectionreport (IR) 2006005. As a result, Constellation instituted several corrective actions concerning this issue such as challenge boards for complex tagouts, a more rigorous scope deletion process for scheduling work, and a review of engineering standards used for tagouts. The inspectors noted that Constellation had a decline in tagging related issues during this inspection period.
.3 Annual Sample: Review of Core Exit Thermocouple (CET) Issues
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors selected CR IRE-014-572 as a problem identification and resolution(PI&R) sample for a detailed follow-up review. The CR documented that average CET temperature readings dropped approximately 25 degrees Fahrenheit from the previous fuel cycle following the May 2006, Unit 1 RFO. This phenomenon occurred following the replacement of the in-core instrumentation (ICI) thimbles and thimble support plates (TSP) during the reactor vessel head replacement project. The inspectors assessed Constellation's problem identification threshold, causeanalyses, extent of condition reviews, operability determinations, and the prioritization and timeliness of corrective actions to determine whether Constellation was appropriately identifying, characterizing, and correcting problems associated with this issue and whether the planned or completed corrective actions were appropriate.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings of significance were identified.During the May 2006 RFO for Unit 1, the reactor vessel head project replaced all of theICI thimbles with a different design. The ICI thimbles design changed from a double walled tube-in-tube to a single walled "fluted" configuration. After Unit 1 reached 100%
rated thermal power following the RFO, the average CET temperatures indicated about 25 degrees Fahrenheit colder than the previous fuel cycle. Constellation initiated a CR to evaluate this phenomenon and performed an operability review to determine a reasonable expectation for continued operability (RECO). This phenomenon was also noted for Unit 2 following the March 2007 RFO, which the ICI thimbles and TSP were replaced as part of the reactor vessel head replacement project. Constellation engaged their engineering organization and the CET vendor regarding operability of the system, engaged other sites that have performed a similar modification, and issued operating experience to industry regarding their issue. Constellation and Westinghouse believed the cause of the lower CET temperature readings as experienced in the industry, is due to the design changes of the replacement ICI thimbles, which altered the reactor coolant bypass flow seen by the CETs.Implemented or proposed corrective actions included the following:
- (1) performing anoperability determination review;
- (2) developing new operability acceptance criteria for the CET surveillance procedure, STP O-63-1, Remote Shutdown and Post Accident Monitoring Instrument Channel Check;
- (3) monitoring and evaluating operability of Unit 1 and Unit 2 CET performance; and
- (4) determine the impact of bypass flow on the CETs. Additional recommendations suggested in the RECO included, monitoring Unit 2 CET indications for the bypass flow as observed in Unit 1, evaluating the sub-cooled monitoring alarm function for both units, evaluating the channel check criteria applied in STP O-63-1(2) for continued applicability, revising the simulator to reflect new CET performance and ensuring operators were trained that CETs may indicate values less than actual core exit conditions with reactor coolant pumps (RCPs) operating.The inspectors determined that Constellation properly implemented their correctiveaction process regarding this issue. The RECO was detailed, thorough and provided reasonable justification for continued operation. Corrective actions and recommendations appeared appropriate to understand the new operating scheme for the post accident monitoring system. Constellation continued to implement scheduled corrective actions at the time of this inspection. The inspectors noted that during the review of recent completed surveillance procedures, the CET readings for both units were within the acceptance criteria of their surveillance requirements..4Annual Sample: Unit 2 - Followup to the Pressurizer Power Operated Relief Valve(PORV) Failure to Close
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed Constellation's actions in response to a PORV failure to closefollowing a Unit 2 automatic reactor trip. On November 16, 2006, Unit 2 automatically tripped due to a pressurizer pressure high signal during the performance of a clearance 19Enclosureorder to support scheduled maintenance. As a result of the trip, RCS pressureincreased causing the two PORVs to open as designed. One PORV remained open for longer than expected resulting in a valid safety actuation signal. The inspectors reviewed Constellation's root cause evaluation of the reactor trip, the apparent cause evaluation for the PORV remaining open, and supporting records. In addition, the inspectors interviewed applicable system engineers.
b. Findings
Introduction.
A self-revealing of very low safety significance (Green) NCV of 10 CFRPart 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," occurred because Constellation did not implement adequate corrective actions for a significant condition adverse to quality associated with the slow closure of a pressurizer power operated relief valve (PORV) due to a main disc guide being out of round. Specifically, Constellation did not perform an extent of condition review from a February 2006 event such that corrective actions would preclude recurrence of the issue.
Description.
On November 16, 2006, Unit 2 automatically tripped due to a highpressurizer pressure signal during the performance of a clearance order to support scheduled maintenance. As a result of the trip, RCS pressure increased causing the two PORVs to open as designed. One PORV (2ERV401) closed as expected, the other PORV (2ERV402) remained open for approximately 90 seconds, which is longer than expected and resulted in a safety injection actuation signal. Constellation sent PORV 2ERV402 to Wyle Labs for analysis. As-found testing of 2ERV402 was not possible due to its condition, however, visual inspection results revealed that the main disc guide was out of round. Wyle Labs determined that the tolerances between the main disc guide and the cage had decreased sufficiently to prevent the main disc guide from moving freely within the guide bushing. Constellation determined that this is the most likely reason why the PORV did not close at the expected pressure.The inspectors noted that a similar event occurred in February 2006. On February 21, 2006, a Unit 1 PORV (1ERV402) remained open for approximately 20 seconds following completion of the PORV response time surveillance test (STP-M-673-1).
Constellation sent the valve to Wyle labs where the main disc guide was found out of round. Constellation generated a Category III CR (IRE-011-711) to address the failureof 1ERV402 to immediately close. However, Constellation's procedures do not require an extent of condition review to resolve a Category III CR. A Category II CR would have required an apparent cause evaluation and an extent of condition review. The inspectors concluded that the adverse condition was not appropriately categorized commensurate with its safety significance. QL-2-100, Corrective Action Program, 4, Condition Report Categorization Criteria, states that CRs involving maintenance rule (MR) functional failures shall be categorized as Category II. Constellation did not evaluate the Unit 1 PORV failure to close following the February 2006 surveillance test as a MR functional failure, contrary to Constellation's MR scoping documents. This missed MR functional failure evaluation was identified by Constellation 15 months later and was documented in CR IRE 022-285. In addition, QL-2-100, 4, states that any corrective maintenance on a critical component typically warrants a Category II CR. The PORV, which is classified by Constellation as a critical component, required corrective maintenance to replace the main disc guide prior to 20Enclosurerestoring the valve to service. The performance deficiency is that Constellation did not take corrective actions topreclude recurrence following the identification of a significant condition adverse to quality (main disc guide being out of round on a Unit 1 PORV).
Analysis.
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the equipmentperformance attribute of the Initiating Events cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that challenge critical safety functions.
Specifically, an inadequate extent of condition review led to a similar event when the 2ERV402 had the same degraded condition. The inspectors performed a Phase 1 SDP screening using IMC 0609, Appendix A, and determined that a Phase 2 analysis was required because in the worst case if 2ERV402 failed to close following a pressure transient, the resulting loss of primary coolant would exceed the TS limit for identified RCS leakage. The Phase 2 SDP analysis was conducted by the SRA using the Risk Informed Inspection Notebook for Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Plant Units 1 and 2, Revision 2.01. The SRA made the following assumptions to support the Phase 2 risk assessment: 1) the observed PORV degraded condition adversely impacted the valve closure safety function only; 2) consistent with the SDP usage rules, this degraded valve condition is most appropriately modeled by increasing the stuck open PORV (SORV)initiating event frequency by one order of magnitude; 3) based upon the degraded valve closure condition, only the SORV worksheet (Table 3.4) was solved; and 4) the exposure time for this condition was >30 days. The dominant core damage sequences for the SORV were the failure to close the block valve with subsequent failure of high pressure injection or success of high pressure injection, with a failure of high pressure recirculation. The Phase 2 analysis determined the issue was of very low safety significance (Green) and estimated an increase in core damage frequency in the range of 1 in 16,000,000 years (mid E-8/year). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution, because Constellation did not thoroughly evaluate an equipment malfunction such that the extent of condition was considered and the cause resolved (P.1.c).Enforcement. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action" states, inpart, that for significant conditions adverse to quality, measures shall be taken to assure that the cause of the condition is determined and corrective action taken to preclude repetition. Contrary to the above, following the identification of a main disc guide out of round being a significant condition adverse to quality for the Unit 1 PORV on February 21, 2006, Constellation did not take corrective actions to preclude recurrence. This led to a stuck open PORV due to the same condition during a Unit 2 reactor trip on November 16, 2006. This issue has been entered in Constellation's CAP as IRE-018-411. Immediate corrective actions for this issue included replacement of the main disc guide and an extent of condition review of the remaining PORVs on Unit 1 and Unit 2.
Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into Constellation's CAP, this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with SectionVI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. (NCV 05000317, 05000318/2007003-03:Failure to Preclude Recurrence of a Significant Condition Adverse to Quality Associated with Power Operated Relief Valves).
21Enclosure4OA3Event Followup (71153 - One Sample)
a. Inspection Scope
On March 28, 2007, during the Unit 2 RFO while in a reduced inventory condition, theinspectors observed control room operators performing a reactor coolant system (RCS)vacuum fill evolution that resulted in a loss of all reactor water level indication. The control room level indication (LI-4139) and the local level indication (LE-4139) both increased approximately 6 feet and then slowly decreased while drawing a vacuum on the RCS in preparation for the vacuum fill of the reactor. Operations investigated and determined that a reactor level instrument inlet valve, normally used during refueling outages, had been left open. This allowed air to enter the operating level instrumentation lines as operators drew a vacuum on the RCS. After operators identified and corrected the mis-positioned valve, both reactor level indicators returned to an accurate reading that was consistent with pressurizer level indication. The inspectors conducted a follow-up inspection to gain an understanding of the event and to assess the appropriateness of operator actions. The inspectors interviewed operators and reviewed Constellation procedures, the prompt investigation, and related supporting documentation.
b. Findings
(1)Failure to follow procedures and maintain configuration control during reactor fillIntroduction. The inspectors identified a very low safety significance (Green) NCV of TS5.4.1.a, Administrative Controls, because Constellation did not maintain equipment alignment in accordance with procedures during drain and fill of the reactor coolant system (RCS). Specifically, operations personnel did not verify a reactor level instrument inlet valve shut prior to the vacuum fill of the RCS, contrary to operating procedures.
Description.
On March 28, 2007, operations began draining Unit 2 reactor vessel inpreparation for performing a vacuum fill of the RCS. The plant was in a reduced RCS inventory condition and water level was stable in a 'mid-loop' condition at 38.5 feet. In this condition, Constellation had three wide range level indicators available and functioning properly (LG-4139, LE-4139, and LI-4140). Normally, Constellation would have had ultrasonic narrow range indication available to the operators in the control room (LI-4138), however, LI-4138 failed to function earlier in the RFO and repairs on the instrument were unsuccessful. From a stable, reactor level mid-loop condition, operators in preparation for the vacuumfill operation, isolated LI-4140 in accordance with OP-7, Shutdown Operations, because LI-4140 was not designed for operations under a vacuum. This left one control room RCS level indicator (LE-4139) and one local RCS level indicator (LG-4139) available to the operators. Additionally, these two indicators share a common variable leg RCS instrument tap with each other. When operators commenced drawing a vacuum on the RCS, the operators noted that both RCS level indications had unexpectedly increased and slowly decreased about 20 minutes after initiating a vacuum. The control room chart recorder indicated that RCS level had increased approximately 6 feet from the expected value of 38.5 feet. With no accurate means of level indication, operators 22Enclosuremade the decision to continue to draw a vacuum in order to commence injecting waterinto the RCS. In parallel, operations investigated the apparent malfunction of the level indicators and evaluated potential sources of water to and from the RCS. Operations also began to monitor "alternate" indications for potential loss of inventory including water source tank levels and shutdown cooling pump cavitation. Operators completed drawing a vacuum and commenced RCS fill approximately two hours after initial level indication problems. Five hours after the initial level indication problems and during the RCS fill operation, operators identified level indicator 2-RC-1238 inlet valve was open contrary to its expected normal position of closed. This mis-positioned inlet valve allowed air to enter the level instrumentation lines as operators drew the vacuum and caused the operating level indicators to respond erroneously since both were from a common RCS instrument tap susceptible to air intrusion through 2-RC-1238 inlet valve.
Operators immediately shut the mis-positioned valve and both RCS level indicators responded consistently with expected RCS level. The inspectors determined that Constellation did not maintain configuration control asrequired by procedures governing reduced inventory and RCS vacuum fill. Specifically, Step 6.16.A.1 of OP-7, Shutdown Operations, requires that all RCS piping and associated components are aligned per OI-1A, RCS and Pump Operations. Contrary to this step, Constellation did not ensure that 2-RC-1238 was in the proper position. This valve is typically cycled open/close during refueling outages as an additional level indicator. Constellation left 2-RC-1238 opened, which resulted in the loss of all direct means of level indication due to air intrusion for approximately five hours while the reactor vessel was in a reduced inventory condition.Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as issue reports IRE-021-661 and IRE-022-119. The immediate corrective actions included restoration of RCS level from a reduced inventory condition and a prompt investigation to determine the cause of the loss of all level indication. Inspectors verified during post-event review that there were no indications that reactor water level had ever decreased below the initial level of 38.5 ft.The performance deficiency is that Constellation did not follow site procedures andmaintain equipment alignment during RCS vacuum and fill operations.
Analysis.
This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the InitiatingEvent cornerstone attribute of configuration control and affects the likelihood of a loss of shutdown cooling event. The inspectors evaluated the significance of the finding using IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations SDP" and IMC 0609, Appendix H, "Containment Integrity SDP," because the finding represented an actual loss of level indication and did not meet the criteria specified in Attachment 1, of Appendix G.
Additionally, the finding required a human error probability (HEP) analysis that was not addressed in the simplified Phase 2 evaluation and was referred to the division of risk assessment in Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) for a Phase 3 analysis as directed by Appendix G, Attachment 2, section 2.2.5. No Low Power/Shutdown (LP/SD) SPAR model exists for CCNPP. Therefore, the at-power CCNPP SPAR model was modified to allow analysis of the loss of all level indication condition.
23EnclosureNew event trees were created to analyze the following initiating events:*Loss of level control at mid loop (LOLC);*Loss of inventory (LOI);
- Loss of shutdown cooling (LORHR);
- Shutdown cooling isolation (ISOL);
- Loss of offsite power (LOOP); and
- Loss of AC power to the running shutdown cooling train (LOAC).The impact of the loss of level indication condition impacted the risk by reducing theoperators ability to respond to an event (e.g. a loss of level) if one were to occur. This loss of indication was modeled by adjusting the impacted HEPs. The results were dominated by a LOLC. For the plant conditions (mode 5 late, RCS vented and in reduced inventory with the RCS loops open) the dominant contributor was a loss of level control initiating event with the operators failing to diagnose the loss of level control. For this condition that lasted approximately five hours, the cumulative results for all initiators yielded an incremental conditional core damage probability (ICCDP) of 3.6E-7.
Therefore, this finding is of very low safety significance (Green) for internal event contributors. The finding was evaluated for its potential risk contribution due to large early releasefrequency (LERF) in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix H. According to section 2.0, only the period within eight days of the beginning of the outage needs to be considered.
After eight days, it is assumed that the short-lived, volatile isotopes that are principally responsible for early health effects have decayed sufficiently such that the finding would not contribute to LERF. Since the plant was shutdown for approximately 28 days, the condition did not contribute to LERF. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because Constellation did not define and effectively communicate expectations regarding procedural compliance such that personnel follow procedures (H.4.b).Enforcement. TS 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures be established,implemented, and maintained for activities described in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements. Specifically, Section 3 of RG 1.33, Appendix A, includes draining and filling the RCS. Step 6.16.A.1 of OP-7, Shutdown Operations, requires that all RCS piping and associated components are aligned per OI-1A, RCS and Pump Operations. Contrary to this step, on March 28, 2007, Constellation did not appropriately implement OP-7 and OI-1A and verify that 2-RC-1238 was in the proper position as required by OI-1A. Constellation left 2-RC-1238 open, which resulted in the loss of all level indication for approximately five hours while the reactor vessel was in a reduced inventory condition. This issue was entered into the CAP (IRE-021-661) for resolution. Immediate corrective actions included conducting a prompt investigation to determine the cause of the loss of all level indication. Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into Constellation's CAP (IRE-021-661; IRE-022-119), this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. (NCV05000318/2007003-04, Failure to follow procedures and maintain configuration control during reactor fill.)
(2)Failure to adequately maintain the RCS reduced inventory procedureIntroduction. The inspectors identified a very low safety significance (Green) NCV of TS5.4.1.a, Administrative Controls, when Constellation did not ensure an adequate procedure was maintained to drain and fill the RCS. Specifically, OP-7 permitted operation in a reduced RCS inventory condition without ensuring redundant means of level indication contrary to the requirements of NO-1-103, Lower Mode Operations.
Description.
The inspectors, during post-event follow-up for a loss of reactor levelindication while in a reduced RCS level inventory condition, determined that Constellation is committed to providing at least two independent means of RCS level indication during reduced inventory activities in accordance with GL 88-17, Loss of Decay Heat Removal. This commitment is expressed as a requirement in NO-1-103, Lower Mode Operations, which states that at least two redundant means of level indication shall be provided. The inspectors reviewed OP-7 and identified that it permitted operation in a reduced inventory condition without redundant means of level indication contrary to the requirements of NO-1-103. Specifically, Step 6.16A of OP-7 required that only LE-4139 and LG-4139 be in-service during preparation and performance of the RCS vacuum fill. However, these two indicators share a common variable leg RCS instrument tap and, therefore, are not redundant because a common failure has the potential to make both instruments inoperable as evidenced by the March 28, 2007, event. The inspectors also determined that Step 6.3A of OP-7 permitted several combinations of level indicators that are contrary to NO-1-103 because some of these combinations only consisted of the indicators that shared a common sensing leg.
Additionally, the inspectors noted that the vacuum fill section of the OP-7 did not provide the operators with adequate direction on required actions should a level indication malfunction occur.The performance deficiency is that Constellation did not maintain an adequateprocedure for operating in reduced rector level inventory condition.
Analysis.
This finding is greater than minor because if left uncorrected it could lead to aloss of all level indication while in reduced inventory. The finding is associated with the Initiating Event cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affects the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown operations. Specifically, the inadequate procedure for operation in reduced RCS level inventory increased the likelihood of the loss of RCS level indication and consequently a loss of RHR initiating event. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using IMC 0609, Appendix G, "Shutdown Operations SDP," Figure 1, and determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not require a quantitative assessment based on the review by the SRA. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because Constellation did not ensure that the procedure for operation with the RCS in a reduced level inventory condition was complete and accurate (H.2.c).Enforcement. TS 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures be established,implemented, and maintained for activities described in Appendix A of RG 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements. Specifically, section 3 of RG 1.33, Appendix A, includes draining and filling the RCS. Contrary to the above, the inspectors identified in 25EnclosureApril 2007 that OP-7 was not appropriately maintained and permitted reactor operationin reduced level inventory condition without redundant means of level indication contrary to the requirements of NO-1-103, Lower Mode Operations. This issue was entered into the CAP (IRE-021-661) for resolution. Immediate corrective actions included conducting a prompt investigation to determine the cause of the loss of all level indication and suspension of the procedure OP-7. Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and is entered into Constellation's CAP, this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

This issue was resolved as a NCV of 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(2) and is documented in this report, Section 1R12. This URI is closed..2(Closed) URI 05000318/2006005-04 Acoustic Monitors ResponseAn URI was opened in NRC IR 05000318/2006005 to track the pending resolution of anissue associated with the response of the acoustic monitors following a high pressure reactor trip on November 16, 2006. One PORV, which opened to control RCS pressure, remained open for longer than expected (approximately 90 seconds). In addition, one pressurizer safety valve potentially simmered. Constellation reported that the pressurizer safety valve did not open and the associated pressurizer safety valve acoustic monitoring indication was due to the close proximity of the PORV. The inspectors noted that the acoustic monitors, which are relied on by plant operators during implementation of EOPs, provided potentially ambiguous information. The UFSAR states the requirement to provide the operator with unambiguous indication of RCS safety and relief valve position so that appropriate operator actions can be taken.
The inspectors conducted a followup review of this issue to understand the acoustic monitor response associated with event. Following the event, the pressurizer safety valve and the PORV were taken to Wyle lab for analysis. During as-found testing in the lab, the pressurizer safety valve lifted earlier than the lift set point (2415 psia versus 2475 psia). Constellation concluded that it is a good possibility that the safety valve simmered during the reactor trip. Based on the as-found testing information for the safety valve, review of the associated apparent cause evaluation, and discussions with Operations and Engineering, the inspectors determined that the acoustic monitors responded as expected for the plant conditions during the plant transient on November16, 2006. This URI is closed.
25Enclosure.2Calvert Cliffs Unit 2 Replacement Reactor Vessel Closure Head (RRVCH) (71007)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the Unit 2 RRVCH using the guidance in NRC IP 71007,"Reactor Vessel Head Replacement Inspection." Pre-Service Inspection (PSI) and Baseline InspectionsAn inspection was conducted on-site and in-office to evaluate the automated ultrasonictesting (UT) and dye penetrant (PT) baseline examination data records of the Unit 2 RRVCH. The review of selected documentation was to ensure that the non-destructive examinations (NDE) were performed by qualified NDE technicians and in accordance with qualified procedures. The inspectors reviewed a sample of baseline inspection records from the NDE examinations for welds W75-W135 of the Unit 2 reactor vessel head penetration J-groove welds. The inspectors verified the NDE inspections were performed in accordance withAmerican Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler & Pressure Vessel (B&PV)
Code Section XI and met the NRC Order EA-03-009 requirements for dissimilar metal welds. Additionally, the inspectors performed a direct visual inspection of the Unit 2 RRVCH, penetration nozzles and J-groove welds inside the Pre-Assembly Facility. Post-Modification Testing VerificationThe inspectors reviewed the completed post-modification testing and post-constructionwalkdowns records of the installed component replacements for the Unit 2 RVCH, CEDMs and Enhanced Service Structure (ESS) to verify that the tests and walkdowns were conducted in accordance with approved plans, procedures, and work orders and to verify the functional testing confirmed the design and established baseline measurements. To verify the modifications were properly installed, inspected, tested and met the acceptance criteria, the inspectors reviewed the following documents: 1)repair replacement plan 2006-2-022, Installation of the RRVCH on the Unit 2 Reactor Vessel; 2) maintenance WO 2200504104, Installation of New Unit 2 Reactor Vessel Closure Head; 3) CEDM performance testing; and 4) ESS post modification test - CEDM Cooler Air Flow Test. The inspectors also reviewed results of ASME,Section XI, VT-2 Visual Examinationconducted during a system leakage (Class 1 components) test to verify that no RCS leakage was observed from the Unit 2 RRVCH, head vent line piping and components during Mode 3 walkdowns.
