SUBJECT: MILLSTONE POWER STATION - INTEGRATED INSPECTION REPORT 05000336/2015003 AND 05000423/2015003
Dear Mr. Heacock:
On September 30, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Millstone Power Station (Millstone), Units 2 and 3. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on October 14, 2015, with Mr. John Daugherty, Site Vice President, and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's 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 two violations of NRC requirements, both of which were of very low safety significance (Green). Additionally, a licensee-identified violation, which was determined to be of very low safety significance, is listed in this report. However, because of the very low safety significance, and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these findings as non-cited violations, consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest the non-cited violations in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Millstone. In addition, if you disagree with the cross-cutting aspect assigned to any finding, or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement 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 I, and the NRC Resident Inspector at Millstone. In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC's Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

SUMMARY
Inspection Report 05000336/2015003, 05000423/2015003; 07/01/2015 - 09/30/2015;
Millstone Power Station (Millstone), Units 2 and 3; Surveillance Testing, Event Follow-up.
This report covered a three-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections performed by regional inspectors. The inspectors identified two findings of very low safety significance (Green), both of which were non-cited violations (NCVs). The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (i.e., greater than Green, or Green, White, Yellow, Red) and determined using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, "Significance Determination Process," dated April 29, 2015. Cross-cutting aspects are determined using IMC 0310, "Aspects Within Cross-Cutting Areas," dated December 4, 2014. All violations of NRC requirements are dispositioned in accordance with the NRC's Enforcement Policy, dated February 4, 2015. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 5.
Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems
- Green.
The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Millstone Unit 3 Technical Specification (TS) Surveillance Requirement 4.0.5 because Dominion did not implement the Inservice Testing (IST) Program in accordance with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Operation and Maintenance (OM) Code of Record, 2001 through 2003 incorporated addenda. On July 18, 2015, Dominion changed the reference values of the 'B' control building air conditioning booster pump, 3SWP*P2B, prior to determining the cause of the condition which resulted in the pump performing in the Action Range (ISTB-6200(b)) in April 2015. This finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, "Power Reactor Inspection Reports," Appendix B, "Issue Screening," dated September 7, 2012, as it represented a challenge to the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The reliability of 3SWP*P2B was challenged based upon Dominion's change in the pump's reference values contrary to the ASME OM code of record for Millstone Unit 3 which could result in the degradation of the equipment remaining undetected. The finding screened to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the safety function of 3SWP*P2B was not lost based on analysis of design basis flow requirements. The inspectors determined the finding has a cross-cutting aspect in Problem Identification and Resolution, Evaluation, in that the organization failed to evaluate the issue to ensure that resolution addressed causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, Dominion's analysis of the April 2015 pump failures was not thorough enough to understand a new potential failure mode (impeller movement) and how it may impact system performance. [P.2] (Section 1R22)
Cornerstone: Barrier Integrity
- Green.
The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Millstone Unit 3 TS 6.8.1, as specified by Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, associated with Dominion's failure to implement adequate procedures to address a hypothetical large break loss of coolant accident (LBLOCA) inside containment with a failure of a recirculation spray system (RSS) heat exchanger tube resulting in a loss of coolant accident (LOCA) that bypasses the containment barrier.
4 Dominion did not provide adequate procedural direction or training to the operators for the control of the emergency core cooling systems (ECCS) during this hypothetical event in June of 2015. Dominion entered the issue into their corrective action program as condition report (CR) 1008205.
The finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, "Power Reactor Inspection Reports," Appendix B, "Issue Screening," dated September 7, 2012, as it represented a challenge to the procedure quality attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. The finding was screened to be of very low safety significance (Green) as the deficiency did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of reactor containment in accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and IMC 0609,
Appendix AProperty "Inspection Manual Chapter" (as page type) with input value "NRC Inspection Manual 0609,</br></br>Appendix A" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process., Exhibit 3, "Barrier integrity Screening Questions," Section B, "Reactor Containment." The inspectors identified a cross-cutting aspect in Problem Identification and Resolution, Evaluation, because the organization failed to evaluate the issue to ensure that resolution addressed causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. [P.2] (Section 4OA3)
Other Findings
A violation of very low safety significance that was identified by Dominion was reviewed by the inspectors. Corrective actions taken or planned by Dominion have been entered into Dominion's corrective action program. This violation and corrective action tracking number are listed in Section 4OA7 of this report.

b. Findings
Introduction.
The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Millstone Unit 3 TS Surveillance Requirement 4.0.5 because Dominions did not implement the IST Program in accordance with the ASME OM Code of Record, 2001 through 2003 incorporated addenda. On July 18, 2015, Dominion changed the reference values of the 'B' control building air conditioning booster pump, 3SWP*P2B, prior to determining the cause of the condition which resulted in the pump performing in the Action Range (ISTB-6200(b)) in April 2015.
Description.
On April 22, 2015, the service water booster pump P2B, 3SWP*P2B, failed an IST comprehensive test. The test results place the pump performance in ASME Code Required Action Range. The Code required Dominion to declare the pump inoperable and then determine the cause of the deviation and correct the condition or perform an analysis and establish new reference operating values for the pump in accordance with ISTB-6200(c).
Through troubleshooting, Dominion identified that impeller clearance had unexpectedly changed and then adjusted the impeller. The pump was retested in accordance with an IST Group A test which did not have the same acceptance criteria as the initially performed comprehensive test, on April 24, 2015, and failed again. The retest results
remained in the Required Action Range. Dominion performed another impeller adjustment that same day and the pump passed a Group A test on the night shift. At this point, Dominion declared the pump operable and restored it to service, but did not determine the cause of the change in impeller clearance as required by the Code.
Section ISTB-6200(b) states that if the measured test parameter values fall within the Required Action Range "the pump shall be declared inoperable until either the cause of the deviation has been determined and corrected, or an analysis of the pump is performed and new reference values are established in accordance with ISTB-6200(c)."
In this instance, the "deviation" is the unexpected change in impeller clearance. The Code requires Dominion to understand the cause of the unexpected change in impeller clearance as well as correcting it by adjusting the clearance. Alternatively, Dominion could have determined a new set of reference values for the pump at this time in accordance with ISTB-6200(c), which requires an "analysis of pump level and system level of operational readiness, the cause of the change in pump performance, and an evaluation of all trends indicated by available data." The inspectors determined that Dominion improperly declared the pump operable without performing all required Code
functions.
Dominion had previously been monitoring the service water booster pump performance for degradation by another potential failure mode. The pump casings and impellers are constructed of Aluminum Bronze C95400 which are susceptible to erosion due to the high design impeller speeds. Additionally, the pump casing and impeller material is susceptible to Aluminum dealloying due to the metal's interaction with the service water. To mitigate these degradation mechanisms, Dominion has established a long term plan to replace the pumps in 2016. In the short term, Dominion has established a maintenance strategy of pump casing coating and impeller replacements based upon performance monitoring (IST program).
Dominion performed additional maintenance on
the 'B' service water booster pump in July to inspect this coating degradation.
During the July 15 through July 17 maintenance window, inspection of the pump casing identified blistering and expected wear. Inspection of the impeller did not identify any degradation that would have impacted performance. However, Dominion chose to conservatively replace the impeller. The casing was recoated and machined to fit the new impeller. During post-maintenance testing, the pump performed worse than prior to the maintenance, twice failing into the Action Range.
On July 18, 2015, Dominion changed the pump reference values in accordance with ISTB-3310. This section of the Code allows Dominion to determine a new set of reference values when the previous reference values may have been affected by "repair, replacement, or routine servicing" of a pump. However, because Dominion never properly addressed the requirements of Section ISTB-6200
- (b) in April, the inspectors determined they did not follow all the Code requirements to change the reference values in July. In order to change the reference values in July, Dominion needed to meet all the requirements for analysis in ISTB-6200(c), not just the requirements of ISTB-3310.
Changing IST component reference values in a manner contrary to the IST program could result in undetected degradation of a component important to safety. Dominion evaluated the lost design basis event margin associated with 3SWP*P2B's performance under CR 1003089. Dominion has entered the concern associated with implementation of the IST Program into their corrective action program under CR 1014358.
Analysis.
The inspectors determined that failure to implement the IST Program in accordance with TS Surveillance Requirement 4.0.5 was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the licensee's ability to foresee and correct. Specifically, Dominion failed to determine the cause of the deviation, displacement of the pump impeller, which resulted in service water booster pump P2B performing in an IST Corrective Action condition as described in ASME Code of record section ISTB-6200 in April 2015 and, subsequently, did not perform analyses in accordance with ISTB-6200(c) prior to changing reference values of the pump in July 2015. This finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, "Power Reactor Inspection Reports," Appendix B, "Issue Screening," dated September 7, 2012, as it represented a challenge to the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The reliability of 3SWP*P2B was challenged based upon Dominion's change in the pump's reference values contrary to the ASME OM code of record for Millstone Unit 3 which could result in the degradation of the equipment remaining undetected.
In accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, "Mitigating Systems Screening Questions," Section A, "Mitigating Systems, Structures or Components and Functionality," the finding screened to be of very low safety significance (Green), when the deficiency affecting the design or qualification whereupon the component maintains operability or functionality question was answered "yes." The safety function of 3SWP*P2B was not lost based on analysis of design basis flow requirements.
This finding in accordance with IMC 0310, "Aspects within the Cross-Cutting Areas,"
dated December 4, 2014, has a cross-cutting aspect in Problem Identification and Resolution, Evaluation, in that the organization failed to evaluate the issue to ensure that resolution addressed causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, Dominion's analysis of the April 2015 pump failures was not thorough enough to understand a new potential failure mode (impeller movement) and how it may impact system performance. [P.2]
Enforcement.
Millstone Unit 3 TS Surveillance Requirement 4.0.5 states, in part, "Surveillance Requirements for inservice testing of ASME Code Class 1, 2, and 3 components shall be performed in accordance with the ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (ASME OM Code)." Contrary to the above, from April 24, 2015, to present, Dominion did not perform inservice testing of IST Program component 3SWP*P2B in accordance with the ASME OM Code. Specifically Dominion reset the pump 3SWP*P2B IST reference values in July without having determined the cause of the inoperable condition in April. This could result in a condition where degradation of the 3SWP*P2B would remain undetected by IST testing. Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and Dominion has taken corrective action and entered this issue into their corrective action program as CR 1014358, this finding is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution
.1 Routine Review of Problem Identification and Resolution Activities
a. Inspection Scope
As required by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Problem Identification and Resolution," the
inspectors routinely reviewed issues during baseline inspection activities and plant status reviews to verify that Dominion entered issues into the corrective action program at an appropriate threshold, gave adequate attention to timely corrective actions, and identified and addressed adverse trends. 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 corrective action program. The inspectors also confirmed, on a sampling basis, that, as applicable, for identified defects and non-conformances, Dominion performed an evaluation in accordance with 10 CFR Part 21.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Annual Sample: Unit 2 Compensatory Cooling for Vital Switchgear
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed an in-depth review of Dominion's root cause analysis and corrective actions associated with CR 569509. Specifically, a through-wall service water leak occurred on the chiller X181A/B vital switchgear cooler service discharge piping.
The leak was caused by flow accelerated erosion of the pipe downstream of flow measuring orifice FE-6922. This condition required the removal from service of the X181A/B cooler and the establishment of compensatory cooling in the West 480V Switchgear Room. Compensatory cooling procedures are used to provide
supplementary ventilation and cooling to main tain vital switchgear room temperature below the required limits in the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) and TSs. As a result, the inspectors reviewed the design calculations and engineering technical evaluations (ETE) that demonstrated that vital switchgear could be maintained in an operable condition with supplementary ventilation.
The inspectors walked down the lower 4160 VAC vital switchgear room when the room was being cooled by compensatory measures to verify temperature limits of vital equipment. The inspectors assessed Dominion's problem identification threshold, cause analyses, extent of condition reviews, compensatory actions, and the prioritization and timeliness of corrective actions to determine whether Dominion was appropriately identifying, characterizing, and correcting problems associated with this issue and whether the planned or completed corrective actions were appropriate. The inspectors compared the actions taken to the requirements of the corrective action program and 10 CFR 50, Appendix B. In addition, the inspectors performed field walkdowns and interviewed engineering personnel to assess the effectiveness of the implemented corrective actions.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings were identified.
Dominion determined the most probable cause was flow accelerated corrosion downstream of a flow measuring orifice. Dominion conducted a technical review of the flow accelerated corrosion induced failure, including a comprehensive failure analysis.
Corrective actions included replacing the affected pipe section.
The inspectors also reviewed selected copper- nickel (Cu-Ni) service water piping maintenance records and did not identify additional issues. The inspectors determined Dominion's overall response to the issue was commensurate with the safety significance, was timely, and included appropriate compensatory actions. The inspectors determined that the actions taken were reasonable to resolve both the through-wall leak and the impact from elevated operating temperatures to relay service life.
However, the inspectors' noted that quarantine procedures for the degraded pipe piece that had been removed were ineffective in preventing maintenance personnel from deburring the pipe section and removing the oxide coating surrounding the hole in the pipe. Premature, inadvertent modification of the as-found condition of the pipe prevented a complete forensic analysis of the cause of the hole.
The inspectors noted that the normal operating loads in the lower 4160 VAC vital switchgear room provide a higher heat load inside the room than would be present for operation of emergency equipment. Despite the higher heat load, room temperatures were able to be maintained less than TRM limits with compensatory cooling procedures during a summer day when outside ambient temperatures were around 90°F.
4OA3 Follow-Up of Events and Notices of Enforcement Discretion
.1 Plant Events
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the retraction of Event Report 51161, Millstone Unit 3 Service Water Radiation Monitor Out of Service on September 30, 2015. The inspectors verified the reporting requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.72 and reviewed Dominion's follow-up actions related to the events to assure that Dominion implemented appropriate corrective actions commensurate with their safety significance.
b. Findings
Introduction.
The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Millstone Unit 3 TS 6.8.1 because Dominion did not implement adequate procedures to address a LBLOCA inside containment that bypasses the containment barrier. Specifically, Dominion did not provide adequate procedural direction or training to the operators for control of the ECCS during a LOCA and a loss of containment caused by a RSS heat exchanger tube rupture.
Description.
On September 30, the inspectors reviewed the retraction of a prompt notification under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xiii) for event report 51161 dated June 17, 2015 for a major loss of emergency preparedness assessment capability when 3SWP*RE60B failed. Dominion had determined that the loss of 3SWP*RE60B did not represent a major loss of emergency assessment capability and should not have been reported to the NRC. The inspectors noted that while the event retraction met the specific criteria in NUREG-1022 (Event Reporting Guidelines: 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73), the Dominion evaluation was narrowly focused and did not assess the larger implications of the removal of the service water radiation monitors 3SWP*RE60A/B from service.
In the course of reviewing this event retraction, the inspectors determined that Dominion did not have adequate procedural direction to mitigate the failure of an RSS heat exchanger tube during a LOCA event.
The RSS heat exchangers are used to provide cooling for containment sump water after the ECCS injection phase has been completed and the containment sump Recirculation Actuation Signal (RAS) has occurred. The Millstone Unit 3 ECCS system is designed and operated differently than the standard Westinghouse-designed ECCS system for core cooling. During the sump recirculation phase of a LOCA, the four RSS heat exchangers are used to cool the reactor coolant system (RCS) water in the containment sump by transferring the heat directly to service water without an intermediate closed loop cooling system. Essentially, the RSS heat exchanger tubes form part of the containment boundary.
A rupture in the RSS heat exchanger tube results in a containment bypass event. Two radiat ion monitors (3SWP*RE60A/B - one per RSS/service water train) were designed to monitor the integrity of the RSS heat exchanger tubes that comprise the containment fission product barrier to the environment in post-accident conditions.
The generic Westinghouse emergency operating procedures (EOPs) provide direction to identify and isolate any leakage of RCS coolant that bypasses the containment barrier in ECA-1.2 (LOCA Outside of Containment). The Dominion site-specific EOPs did not provide a clear path to transition from EOP-35-E-1 (Loss of Coolant Accident) to EOP-35-ECA-1.2 (LOCA Outside of Containment) to mitigate a tube rupture in an RSS heat exchanger. Instead, Dominion relied on concurrent implementation of AOP 3573 (Radiation Monitor Alarm Response) to mitigate the event. The inspectors identified that the operators were required to respond to a main board alarm in the control room to direct the operator's attention to a plant computer screen that showed the status of numerous in-plant radiation monitors. The operators had to recognize that one of the 3SWP*RE60 process monitors was in alarm among the numerous radiation monitor alarms that would annunciate simultaneously when RAS occurred in order to enter AOP 3573. AOP 3573 attachment A directed the operators to consult with the technical support center and determine if the following should be performed: shutdown the affected RSS train and isolate service water to the affected heat exchanger. No explicit direction was provided regarding the criteria to isolate a release, how to complete these actions (such as which valves to close and in what order), and how to maintain containment cooling.
During a large break LOCA, the most likely time for the RSS heat exchanger tube to rupture would be when the heat exchanger is pressurized at the initiation of RAS, approximately 30 minutes from the time the RCS barrier was breached. The technical support center is not activated until 60 minutes following the declaration of the emergency event and would likely not be available to formulate a plan and provide clear direction to the operators. A tube rupture in an RSS heat exchanger during a LOCA would cause containment sump water to be pumped into Long Island Sound and would challenge the integrity of the long term cooling of the containment structure due to a loss of containment sump inventory. The long term preservation of the containment barrier relies on cooling the core by cooling the water in the containment sump.
Dominion did not provide adequate procedural direction to ensure that a release would be promptly terminated and that long term core and containment cooling functions are maintained. Furthermore, Dominion did not train their operators to respond to the failure of an RSS heat exchanger tube. There were no simulator training scenarios or classroom training plans for licensed operators that would prepare the operators to take effective mitigating actions, determine the emergency classification of this potential event, and formulate effective protective action recommendations.
Analysis.
The inspectors determined that failure to provide adequate procedural direction to mitigate an RSS heat exchanger tube leak in accordance with TS 6.8.1 was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within the licensee's ability to foresee and correct. Specifically, Dominion did not provide adequate procedures to address a LOCA into containment with a tube leak in an RSS heat exchanger. This finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, "Power Reactor Inspection Reports," Appendix B, "Issue Screening," dated September 7, 2012, as it represented a challenge to the procedure quality attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. The lack of procedural direction to mitigate an RSS heat exchanger tube rupture during a LOCA could result in challenging the integrity of the containment barrier.
In accordance with IMC 0609, "Significance Determination Process," Attachment 4, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 3, "Barrier integrity Screening Questions," Section B, "Reactor Containment," the finding screened to be of very low safety significance (Green), when the deficiency did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of reactor containment (valves, airlocks, etc.), containment isolation system (logic and instrumentation), and heat removal components.
This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in Problem Identification and Resolution, Evaluation, because the organization did not adequately evaluate the issue to ensure that resolutions addressed causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, Dominion did not evaluate the adequacy of existing procedural direction to respond to a LOCA with a ruptured RSS heat exchanger tube. The inspectors determined that there was a gap in procedural guidance as operators transitioned from the loss of one fission product barrier (RCS) to the loss of two (RCS and containment).
Although this performance deficiency had existed for many years, Dominion missed an opportunity to evaluate the problem and take effective corrective action when they reviewed and retracted the event report [P.2].
Enforcement.
Millstone Unit 3 TS 6.8.1 states, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of RG 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. RG 1.33 Appendix A, Section 6 lists procedures for combatting emergencies and other significant events including LOCAs and loss of containment integrity. Contrary to the above, from July 1, 2015 to present, Dominion did not establish, implement, or maintain adequate written procedures for combatting LOCAs and loss of containment integrity. Specifically, Dominion emergency procedures did not provide adequate procedural direction to mitigate and classify a LOCA with a concurrent loss of containment caused by an RSS heat exchanger tube rupture. Because this issue is of very low safety significance (Green) and Dominion entered this issue into their corrective action program (CR 108205), this finding is being treated as an NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

.2 (Closed) Licensee Event Report (LER) 05000423/2014-004-00 & 2015-001-00: Unlatched Dual Train HELB Door Results in Potential Loss of Safety Function
On December 12, 2014, January 15, 2015, and February 19, 2015, at Millstone Unit 3, Dominion personnel discovered the east motor control center rod control area to containment air lock area door, A-24-8, would not latch closed upon use. A-24-8 is a dual train high energy line break boundary and fire protection door associated with the operability of both trains of 480 VAC safety-related switchgear. Each time upon identification that the door would not properly latch, the door was declared non-functional and TS 3.0.3 was entered. Dominion personnel, then, exercised and lubricated the door lockset mechanism and the latch would function properly. Each event lasted no more than 35 minutes from discovery to restoration upon which TS 3.0.3 was exited. The inspectors did not identify any new issues during the review of the LER. This LER is
closed.

.1 (Closed) Notice of Violation VIO 05000423/2013004-01:
Inadequate Corrective Actions to Restore Degraded Unit 3 Main Feedwater Isolation Valves Follow-up on Traditional Enforcement Actions, Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternate Dispute Resolutions Confirmatory Orders (92702)
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors performed an on-site follow-up inspection for cited violation (VIO)05000423/2013004-01, Inadequate Corrective Actions to Restore Degraded Unit 3 Main Feedwater Isolation Valves. The Green cited violation was associated with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, "Corrective Action," for Dominion's failure to take timely and effective corrective actions for conditions adverse to quality involving the degraded closing capability of four Unit 3 feedwater isolation valves (FWIVs) due to undersized actuators.
The condition of the undersized actuators was discovered in 2007. Adequate compensatory measures were put in place and corrective actions to replace the actuators were planned during refueling outage 3R12 in October 2008. The modification to replace the actuators was deferred over the next two refueling outages (3R13 in the spring of 2010 and 3R14 in the fall of 2011). In Inspection Report 05000423/2012010, dated August 31, 2012, the NRC issued an NCV (NCV 05000423/2012010-01) for failure to take timely corrective action. At the time, the modification was scheduled to be implemented during spring 2013 (3R15) refueling outage. The modification was subsequently moved out of the spring 2013 refueling outage. Because the modification was not implemented, a cited violation of Criterion XVI was issued in Inspection Report 05000423/2013004, dated November 8, 2013. Subsequently, the modification to the FWIV actuators was completed in October 2014 during refueling outage 3R16.
The inspectors performed the follow-up inspection of the cited violation in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 92702, "Follo w-up on Traditional Enforcement Actions Including Violations, Deviations, Confirmatory Action Letters, Confirmatory Orders, and Alternate Dispute Resolution Confirmatory Orders." The objectives of the inspection were to determine whether Dominion:
Provided assurance that the cause of the violation is understood; Provided assurance that corrective action have been fully implemented; and Provided assurance that licensee programs and practices have been appropriately enhanced to prevent recurrence.
b. Findings and Observations
One licensee-identified violation was identified (documented in Section 4OA7).
Dominion replied to Notice of Violation VIO 05000423/2013004-01 in a letter dated December 9, 2013. Dominion stated that the reason for the violation was that the station did not appropriately plan for a project of the scope and complexity required. Dominion stated that full compliance would be achieved prior to plant restart from refueling outage
3R16 in the fall of 2014.
The inspectors reviewed CR 507299 and ACE 19230 which were credited by Dominion as part of the response to the VIO. The ACE identified the cause as the station did not support timely implementation of the modification to resolve the OD for the degraded FWIVs. A corrective action was established to review all open ODs to determine if (1)the OD and its corrective actions were tracked on the Plant Health Issues List and within the corrective action program process, and
- (2) for those items with open corrective actions, to determine if the planned resolution was in accordance with timeliness guidance. The inspectors found that of the 9 open ODs that were open when the VIO was issued, all were resolved with the exception of one which required a change to the TS. The TS amendment associated with the change had been submitted and was in review by NRC Headquarters staff. The inspectors reviewed the list of open ODs at the time of the inspection and assessed that the age of the ODs was reasonable given the complexity of the associated issues. Other corrective actions to assure projects were properly prioritized and periodically reviewed were completed by Dominion. The inspectors concluded that Dominion had taken adequate action to understand the cause of the VIO, had taken adequate actions to correct the cause of the VIO, and that Dominion programs and practices have been appropriately enhanced.
Additional review of Dominion processes was recommended by the corrective action review board to address behavioral and organizational issues that resulted in the necessity to reschedule the 3R15 project to replace the FWIV actuators. Dominion consulted an independent outside contractor regarding assessment of site project management. The inspectors reviewed the report associated with this review which recommended a number of programmatic and organizational changes to address project prioritization and implementation processes. This resulted in a number of procedural improvements being incorporated into the fleet procedures.
The design modification to the FWIV actuators was approved on November 5, 2013, to correct the degraded closing capability of the Millstone Unit 3 main feedwater isolation valves. The modification (Design Change MP3-09-01030) involved replacing the valves' gas-hydraulic actuators with pneumatic (nitrogen) actuators to provide additional valve thrust. The modification was installed on Unit 3 during refueling outage 3R16 in the fall of 2014. During the installation, several problems were encountered including design issues. This included: 1) the inability to open the FWIVs once they were closed at the initial actuator thrust values; 2) an incorrect vendor valve weak link analysis (the valve backseat determined to be the weak link versus the valve stem coupling bolts); 3) actuator interference and alignment problems; 4) poor performance of nitrogen pressure regulators; and 5) foreign material exclusion problems. Dominion implemented corrective actions and design change updates (DCUs) to MP3-09-01030 to address the issues encountered.
The inspectors performed a review of all DCUs that were made during the installation of MP3-09-01030 to address the problems that were discovered. The inspectors did not identify any issues that would affect the ability of the FWIV actuators to perform their intended safety function. The inspectors noted that additional DCUs were in the planning stages to address performance issues with the nitrogen supply support system.
For example, a change was planned to replace the nitrogen pressure regulators to improve their performance and to remove the operator burden of manually filling actuator accumulator receiver tanks. The inspectors reviewed the planned actions and assessed that the changes would enhance and improve system operation.
Dominion performed ACE 19891 following 3R16 to address the cause of the problems that were encountered during the installation of the new actuators and supporting equipment. The inspectors performed a review of the ACE. The apparent cause addressed all the problems encountered but mainly focused on the discovery of the inadequate weak link analysis that required several DCUs to fully address. The cause of the inadequate analysis was determined to be inadequate vendor design control. A contributing cause was determined to be inadequate owner control of the vendor design. A licensee-identified violation associated with the inadequate vendor design control was identified by the inspector and is documented in Section 4OA7.
The inspectors identified several minor observations during their review of ACE 19891.
The observations were minor because they did not affect the ability of the FWIV actuators to perform their intended safety function. The observations were as follows:
The corrective action to address the cause of inadequate vendor design control was to perform an audit of the vendor's quality assurance program. This action was closed without performing the audit. Instead, credit was taken for an audit that was performed in June 2014. The action was closed out based on a finding from the June 2014 audit of the vendor's design control process that was similar to the design control problems associated with the inadequate weak link analysis. The closeout remarks for the corrective action stated that corrective actions were implemented by the vendor. Action to address the contributing cause of inadequate owner control of the vendor design only included a reinforcement with project managers the expectations related to validating assumptions, extent of condition for as-found issues, review of risk, and initiating CRs when a deviating condition is found. No longer-term actions were planned to directly address the contributing cause. The inspectors noted that Dominion planned to complete an assist visit for project management by an industry group or, alternately, to conduct a formal self-assessment of project implementation. However, it was unclear whether the assist visit or self-assessment would address the contributing cause because the specifics these actions were not addressed in the
ACE.
No extent of condition of the inadequate vendor design control apparent cause was documented in the ACE. This was identified by a quality index review of the ACE and is a mandatory attribute for ACEs. Although no extent of condition was performed the quality index review gave credit that the requirement was partially met. The corrective action program requires that if a mandatory attribute is not met, then the ACE is unacceptable.
Dominion entered the inspector's observations into the corrective action program as CR 1010991 and planned to revise the corrective action plan for ACE 19891 to address the
inspector's observations.
Based on the results of the inspection, the inspectors' concluded that Dominion had taken adequate action to address the degraded condition of the Unit 3 FWIV actuators.
Therefore, VIO 05000423/2013004-01 is closed.

a. Inspection Scope
Inspectors verified that Dominion's interim actions will perform their intended function for flooding mitigation.
The inspectors independently verified that Dominion's proposed interim actions would perform their intended function for flooding mitigation.
Visual inspection of the flood protection feature was performed if the flood protection feature was relevant. External visual inspection for indications of degradation that would prevent its credited function from being performed was performed Reasonable simulation, if applicable to the site Flood protection feature functionality was determined using either visual observation or by review of other documents The inspectors verified that issues identified were entered into Dominion's corrective action program.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.3 Follow-up of Millstone Unit 2 Commitment 17 Activities
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed Dominion's staff actions to address the effectiveness of their condition monitoring program for structures with painted surfaces that were the subject of prior monitoring. Specifically, the inspectors reviewed actions tracked in Dominion Corrective Action Process CR 580204. This CR was initiated during the inspectors' review of Commitment 17, to enhance the Millstone condition monitoring program for structures, as documented in NRC Inspection Report 05000336/2015009, dated June 25, 2015 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML15176A473). The issue involved indications of cracks in structural concrete underneath painted surfaces and Dominion's staff actions to manage aging of structural concrete.
At the time of the inspection referenced above, Dominion's staff was not able to show a technically valid correlation, empirically or otherwise, correlating cracking in the coating of recently painted concrete surfaces with the degradation that might be occurring beneath the coating in the body of the structure. Dominion's staff had implemented their structures condition monitoring program in conformance with NUREG-1801, Revision 2, "Generic Aging Lessons Learned Report." As a result, the inspectors did not verify that XI.S6 Structures Monitoring, Evaluation and Technical Basis 5, Monitoring and Trending, was being implemented. Specifically, the inspectors were not able to determine if Regulatory Position 1.5, "Monitoring of Structures" in NRC RG 1.160, Revision 2 was being implemented. Dominion's staff entered this issue in its corrective action program via CR 580204.
The inspectors reviewed Dominion's staff follow-up actions regarding the condition of structural concrete underneath painted surfaces at crack locations documented in CR 580204.
b. Findings and Observations
No findings were identified.
The inspectors determined that Dominion's staff performed an engineering technical evaluation and initiated development of a new procedure for monitoring and measurements of significant cracks on repainted surfaces. Stainless steel pins had been installed to monitor movements and growth in cracks in vertical and horizontal directions on painted surfaces, and paint was removed from surfaces along-side the selected cracks. In discussion with Dominion's staff, the inspectors determined new procedures were in development stage with technical acceptance criteria, frequency of measurements, and evaluation requirements established and approved. The inspectors visually examined the installed pins and concluded they appeared to be appropriate for the purpose. The currently applicable procedure had been revised to reflect this monitoring activity. The inspectors concluded Commitment 17 was being implemented, and there is reasonable assurance that the effects of aging related to painted surfaces will be managed during the Millstone Unit 2 period of extended operation.
4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit
On October 14, 2015, the inspectors presented the inspection results to Mr. John Daugherty, Site Vice President, and other members of the Millstone staff.
The inspectors verified that no proprietary information was retained by the inspectors or documented in this report.
4OA7 Licensee-Identified Violations
The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by Dominion and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy for being dispositioned as an NCV.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion VII, "Control of Purchased Material, Equipment, and Services," requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that purchased services conform to the procurement documents. Contrary to Criterion VII, Design Change MP3-09-01030, "Replacement of Actuators on 3FWS*CTV41 A/D (FWIVs)," was supplied by Dominion's vendor (Flowserve) and accepted by Dominion with an inadequate valve weak link analysis (valve backseat determined to be the weak link versus the steam coupling bolts). This was identified by Dominion during installation of MP3-09-01030 which required significant changes to the modification design prior to returning the FWIVs to service. This issue is more than minor because, if left uncorrected, the issue would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, not correcting the valve weak link analysis had the potential to lead to damage and/or failure of the FWIV stem coupling bolts rendering the valve inoperable. The inspectors evaluated this finding using IMC 0609.04, "Initial Characterization of Findings," and IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 3, "Barrier Integrity Screening Questions." The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of reactor containment.
Dominion documented the issue in CRs 564977 and 564801.
