1R17 Evaluations of Changes, Tests, or Experiments and Permanent Plant Modifications
.1 Evaluations of Changes Tests, or Experiments Inspection Scope (23 Samples)
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed three safety evaluations to determine whether the changes to the facility or procedures, as described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), had been reviewed and documented in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 requirements. In addition, the team evaluated whether First Energy Nuclear Operating Company (FENOC) had been required to obtain NRC approval prior to implementing the changes. The team interviewed plant staff and reviewed supporting information including calculations, analyses, design change documentation, procedures, the UFSAR, the Technical Specifications (TSs), and plant drawings to assess the adequacy of the safety evaluations. The team compared the safety evaluations and supporting documents to the guidance and methods provided in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI)96-07, "Guidelines for 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluations," as endorsed by NRC Regulatory Guide 1.187, "Guidance for Implementation of 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Tests, and Experiments," to determine the adequacy of the safety evaluations.
The team also reviewed a sample of twenty 10 CFR 50.59 screenings for which FENOC had concluded that no safety evaluation was required. These reviews were performed to assess whether FENOC's threshold for performing safety evaluations was consistent with 10 CFR 50.59. The sample included design changes, calculations, and procedure
changes. The team reviewed all safety evaluations and selected screenings that FENOC had performed and approved during the time period covered by this inspection (i.e., since the last modifications inspection) not previously reviewed by NRC inspectors. The screenings and applicability determinations were selected based on the safety significance, risk significance, and complexity of the change to the facility.
In addition, the team compared FENOC's administrative procedures used to control the screening, preparation, review, and approval of safety evaluations to the guidance in NEI 96-07 to determine whether those procedures adequately implemented the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59. The reviewed safety evaluations and screenings are listed in the attachment.
b. Findings
No findings were identified. 4
.2 Permanent Plant Modifications (10 samples for Enclosure 1; 1 sample for Enclosure 2)
.2.1 Replacement of Unit 1 Vital Bus Inverters and Static Switches
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed a modification associated with engineering change package (ECP)08-0033-000 that replaced two sets of vital bus inverters and static switches with two sets of vital bus inverters with integral static switches. The replacement units have an output rating (20kVA) that are the same as the existing units. The modification was performed due to poor equipment performance and obsolescence issues associated with the existing inverters and static switches. The review was performed to verify that the design bases and licensing bases of replacing the two sets of inverters with integral static switches had not been degraded by the modification. Additionally, the equivalent 10 CFR 50.59 screen associated with this modification was reviewed as described in section 1R17.1 of this report.
The team assessed if the modification was consistent with requirements in the design and licensing bases. Design assumptions were reviewed to evaluate whether they were technically appropriate and consistent with the UFSAR. The team reviewed design calculations to assess whether the modification met the necessary electrical requirements. The team also verified whether selected drawings and maintenance procedures were properly updated based on replacement of the two sets of inverters with integral static switches. The team reviewed the post maintenance testing to verify proper operation of the equipment. The team performed a walkdown of the equipment to identify any abnormal conditions related to replacement of the inverters. Finally, the team conducted interviews with engineering staff to determine if the equipment would function in accordance with the design assumptions. The documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.

The team reviewed a modification associated with ECP 08-0484-004 which was performed to resolve vortexing and water inventory concerns associated with the primary water storage tank (PWST). This modification along with several other associated modifications was performed to ensure adequate water inventory was maintained in the PWST to ensure accident analysis assumptions for water inventory were maintained.
These modifications raised alarm setpoints, reduced measurement uncertainty, and revised calculations.
The team reviewed the modification to determine if the design basis, licensing basis, or performance capability of the PWST and post-accident sump design assumptions had been affected by the modifications. The team interviewed design engineers, reviewed alarm setpoint calibration procedures, operating procedures, and water inventory calculations to determine if the changes were consistent with the design and licensing requirements. Additionally, the team reviewed PMT results, and associated maintenance work orders to determine if the changes were appropriately implemented and testing adequately validated the new setpoints. Documents reviewed are listed in the
attachment.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2.5 BV2 EDG Speed Sensing Relays
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed a modification associated with ECP 10-0440-003 which replaced the emergency diesel generator speed sensing panel and associated relays with a new panel due to obsolescence of the original part. The team verified that the new panel met the design and licensing requirement of the emergency diesel generator (EDG) system. The team also verified that the design limits of the relays met the system's electrical, seismic, and EQ requirements for the EDG system.
The team also reviewed system design requi rements to evaluate whether the design bases, licensing bases, and performance capability of the EDG system had been degraded by the new panel and relays. Specifically, the team reviewed the modification to evaluate whether the system frequency and voltage bands were within the design limits of the new relay. The team reviewed the associated analysis to evaluate whether the design inputs and outputs were technically reasonable. 7 The team also determined that the seismic qualifications of the relays met the Beaver Valley design requirements. Additionally, the team reviewed PMT results, and associated maintenance work orders to determine if the changes were appropriately implemented, testing adequately validated the relays, and the panel had been installed correctly such that the EDG was able to respond to design basis events. Finally, the team interviewed design engineers to determine if the modification had been implemented correctly and if there were any subsequent problems with the system. Documents reviewed are listed in the attachment.
b. Findings

.2.6 U2 Repair Low Head Safety Injection Pump
a. Inspection Scope
The team reviewed a modification associated with ECP 14-0305 which refurbished the low pressure safety injection (LPSI) pump including replacement of the pump impeller.
The modification was performed to repair damage to the pump that occurred during testing. FENOC refurbished the pump, repaired damage to the volute and installed wear rings, seals, and bearings. Additionally, a new larger impeller was installed. Following repairs the pump was tested at a pump repair facility, reinstalled in the system, and retested.
The team reviewed the modification to determine if the design, licensing bases, and performance capability of the LPSI pump and the associated safety related electrical supply to the pump motor had been degraded by the modification. The team reviewed calculations, licensee design documents, repair facility pump test reports, and associated maintenance work orders to determine if the changes were appropriately implemented. Additionally, the team reviewed pump testing results to ensure that the pump would meet design basis flow and head requirements.
The team also evaluated whether the increased loading on the pump motor was within the capability of the motor and the associated electrical system. The team verified breaker trip setpoints would allow for operation of the pump during all design basis voltage and frequency conditions and the most limiting pump flow and head conditions. The team also reviewed pump testing following installation of the pump in the system to evaluate whether the pump testing was in accordance with TS surveillance and American Society of Mechanical Engineering (ASME) code requirements and the test results ensured design basis assumptions were met. Additionally, the team reviewed post maintenance testing to evaluate whether the motors installed configuration matched calculation assumptions for the cable ampacity, breaker trip setpoints, and EDG loading. A review of corrective action program condition reports was performed to evaluate whether there were any reliability or performance issues associated with the equipment following the modification. Finally, the team interviewed design engineers to determine if the changes met design and licensing requirements. Documents reviewed are listed in the attachment. 8
