SUBJECT: NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION - NRC INTEGRATED INSPECTIONREPORT 05000220/2007002 and 05000410/2007002

Dear Mr. Nietmann:

On March 31, 2007, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection atyour Nine Mile Point Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 and Unit 2. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results discussed on April 20, 2007, with Mr. Mark Schimmel and other members of your staff.The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety andcompliance 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 one finding of very low safety significance (Green). The finding wasdetermined to involve a violation of NRC requirements. However, because of its very low safety significance and because it was entered into your corrective action program (CAP), the NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) in accordance with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC's Enforcement Policy. If you contest the NCV in this report, you should provide a response with the basis for your denial, within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN.: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C.

20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement; U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Nine Mile Point.In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and itsenclosure, and your response (if any) will be available electronically for public inspection in the K. Nietmann2NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of theNRC's document system (ADAMS).

FINDINGSIR 05000220/2007002, 05000410/2007002; 01/01/2007-03/31/2007; Nine Mile Point, Units 1and 2; Surveillance Testing.The report covered a thirteen-week period of inspection by resident and region-basedinspectors. One Green NCV was identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by

their color (Green, White, Yellow, Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609,

"Significance Determination Process." Findings for which the significance determination

process does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management

review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power

reactors is described in

NUR [[]]

EG-1649, "Reactor Oversight Process," Revision 4, dated

December 2006.

A.NRC -Identified and Self-Revealing FindingsCornerstone: Mitigating Systems*Green. A self-revealing, non-cited violation (

NCV) of technical specification (TS)5.4, "Procedures," was identified on January 11, 2007, when the Unit 2 reactor

core isolation cooling (RCIC) system automatically isolated as a result of an

improperly performed surveillance procedure. When performing a test of the

temperature instrument that provides residual heat removal (RHR) and

RC [[]]

IC

system high area temperature isolations, technicians failed to ensure that the

affected channel was bypassed prior to disconnecting the input thermocouple.

This resulted in an automatic isolation of the

RC [[]]

IC system steam supply and the

unavailability of

RC [[]]

IC for approximately four hours. Operators immediately

recognized the error and halted the surveillance procedure. Technicians

reconnected the thermocouple, and operators restored

RC [[]]

IC to a normal

standby lineup.

NMPNS entered the issue into the

CAP as condition report (CR)

2007-0186.The finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the humanperformance 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 finding is of very low safety significance in accordance with 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., "Determining the Significance of Reactor Inspection Findings for

At-Power Situations," based on a Phase 3 analysis. The Region I senior reactor

analyst (SRA) used the Nine Mile Point Unit 2 Standardized Plant Analysis Risk

(SPAR) model and the actual four-hour exposure time to determine that the

increase in core damage frequency was in the range of one core damage

accident in 125,000,000 years of reactor operation, high E-9 per year. This

finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because

the technicians failed to use appropriate human error prevention techniques,

such as self-checking and prominent visual identification of critical procedure

steps. (Section 1R22) B.Licensee-Identified ViolationsNone.

EnclosureREPORT

DETAIL [[]]

SSummary of Plant StatusNine Mile Point Unit 1 (Unit 1) began the inspection period at 100 percent power. OnJanuary 30, 2007, Unit 1 began coastdown (gradual reduction of reactor power due to fuel

depletion) to refueling outage 19 (RFO19). The plant was shut down on March 17, 2007, to

commence

RFO 19, which was in-progress at the end of the inspection period.Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (Unit 2) began the inspection period at 100 percent power. OnMarch 8, 2007, the 'A' reactor recirculation pump (

RRP) was secured due to seal degradation.

This caused power to be reduced to approximately 60 percent. A reactor shutdown was

commenced, and the plant reached cold shutdown on March 9, 2007. Following replacement of

the 'A' RRP seal, a reactor startup was commenced on March 14, 2007. Unit 2 achieved

100 percent power on March 18, 2007, and remained there for the rest of the inspection period.1.REACTOR

SAFETY "Cornerstones: Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, and Barrier Integrity 1R01Adverse Weather Protection ([[Inspection procedure" contains a listed "[" character as part of the property label and has therefore been classified as invalid. - 2 samples) a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors completed the following two adverse weather protection samples thisinspection period. *On January 31, 2007, the inspectors reviewed]]

NMPNS's actions regarding thehigh potential for frazil ice intrusion into the Unit 1 intake structure. The

inspectors verified that operators implemented actions and monitoring specified

by the circulating water system operating procedure (OP). The inspectors also

verified that appropriate procedures were in place for loss of intake water level.

Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the Attachment.*On February 14, 2007, the inspectors reviewed roof loading design bases forstation structures that are important to safety due to the accumulation of recent

near-record snowfalls. The inspectors verified by discussion with

NMP [[]]

NS that

measurements of accumulated roof snow were being taken to confirm that actual

loading was within design limits. Documents reviewed included the Updated

Final Safety Analysis Reports (UFSARs) and Individual Plant Evaluations forExternal Events (IPEEE). b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.

2Enclosure1R04Equipment Alignment (71111.04 - 4 samples, 71111.04S - 1 sample).1Partial System Walkdown a.Inspection Scope The inspectors performed four partial system walkdowns to verify a train was properlyrestored to service following maintenance or to evaluate the operability of one train while

the opposite train was inoperable or out of service for maintenance and testing. The

inspectors compared system lineups to system OPs, system drawings, and the

applicable chapters in the

UFS [[]]

AR. The inspectors also verified the operability of critical

system components by observing component material condition during the system

walkdown and reviewing the maintenance history for each component. Documents

reviewed during this inspection are listed in the Attachment. The inspectors performed

partial walkdowns of the following systems:*Unit 2 'B'

RHR subsystem due to the 'A'

RHR subsystem being inoperable forplanned maintenance on January 17, 2007;*Unit 1 primary containment vacuum relief system during planned maintenanceon torus-to-drywell vacuum relief valve 68-02 on January 22, 2007;*Unit 2 Division 1 and 2 125 Vdc electrical systems due to safety significance onMarch 14, 2007; and*Unit 2 Division 3 emergency diesel generator (EDG) following completion ofplanned maintenance on January 27, 2007. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified..2Complete System Walkdown a.Inspection Scope The inspectors performed a complete walkdown of accessible portions of the Unit 1 corespray system to identify any discrepancies between the existing equipment lineup and

the specified lineup. During the walkdown, system drawings and OPs were used to

verify proper equipment alignment and operational status. The inspectors reviewed the

open maintenance work orders (WOs) on the system for any deficiencies that could

affect the ability of the system to perform its function. Documentation associated with

unresolved design issues such as temporary modifications, operator workarounds, and

items tracked by plant engineering were also reviewed to assess their collective impact

on system operation. In addition, the inspectors reviewed the CR database to verify that

equipment alignment problems were being identified and appropriately resolved.

Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the Attachment.

3Enclosure b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.1R05Fire Protection (71111.05Q - 13 samples) a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors completed 13 quarterly fire protection inspection samples. Theinspectors toured 13 areas important to reactor safety at the station to evaluate

NMP [[]]

NS's control of transient combustibles and ignition sources and the material

condition, operational status, and operational lineup of fire protection systems includingdetection, suppression and fire barriers. The inspectors used procedure

GAP -

NMPNS 's inserviceinspection (

ISI) program for monitoring degradation of the reactor coolant system (RCS)

boundary, risk significant piping system boundaries, and the containment boundary.

The inspectors assessed the ISI activities using the criteria specified in the American

Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI

and applicable NRC regulatory requirements. Documents reviewed for this inspection

are listed in the Attachment.

4EnclosureThe inspectors selected a sample of nondestructive examination (NDE) activities forobservation and evaluation for compliance with the requirements of

ASME Section

XI.

The inspectors also selected samples of activities associated with the repair of safety

related pressure boundary components. The sample selection was based on the

inspection procedure objectives, risk significance and availability. Specifically, theinspectors focused on components and systems where degradation would result in a

significant increase in risk of core damage. This sample selection included the review of

nondestructive tests performed on dissimilar metal welds of piping to the reactor

pressure vessel (RPV) nozzles, butt welds of pipe to fitting and pipe to valves in the core

spray system and integral attachment welds to the containment spray system. The

inspectors reviewed the disposition of the results of the ultrasonic test (UT) of the RPV

N2D recirculation nozzle. This test identified an indication that exceeded the

acceptance criteria of

ASME Section

XI. The inspectors reviewed the analytical analysis

(NMP-29Q-301) of the indication that was performed in accordance with the

requirements of

ASME Section

XI, IWB-3600. The analysis concluded that the flaw

indication was acceptable without repair or rework for one additional refueling cycle at

which time (2009) it would be reexamined by UT.The inspectors performed an evaluation of work activities during a drywell entry thisinspection and noted the corrosion and loss of coating on the reactor building closed

loop cooling piping. The condition had been previously noted by

NMP [[]]

NS but the

inspectors requested an updated evaluation of the condition that was provided in the

disposition of CR 2007-1905. The updated ultrasonic wall thickness measurements

verified that the structural integrity and pressure retention capabilities of the piping was

maintained within specification requirements.The inspectors reviewed portions of the in-process remote visual examination (VT) ofthe steam dryer and observed portions of the replacement of component parts of the

in-vessel shroud tie rod assemblies. The inspectors reviewed a sample of CRs that

were initiated as a result of the inspections performed in accordance with

NMPNS 's

ISI

program. The inspectors reviewed the problem identification, cause analysis and

corrective actions provided in the disposition of the selected CRs. The inspectors

evaluated these activities for compliance with the requirements of the

AS [[]]
ME Code and
CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion

XVI.The inspectors performed a direct observation of three nondestructive tests and alsoperformed a documentation review of two tests that included both volumetric and

surface examinations. The inspectors also performed a VT of selected areas of the

containment liner to assess the condition of the liner coating. As a result of the

inspectors' examination, supplemental inspection was performed to acquire additional

liner wall thickness measurements. WO 07-03718-00 was initiated to provide

instructions for surface preparation to accommodate thickness testing. Thickness

measurements were specified in action item four of the disposition to CR 2007-1695 and

recorded in

NDE report 1-6.05-07-0009. The following

NDEs were reviewed:*UT, volumetric examination, weld # 40-WD-045, butt weld, pipe to elbow, corespray system (40);

5Enclosure*UT, volumetric examination, weld # 40-WD-047, butt weld, pipe to valve, corespray system (40);*Magnetic particle test (MT), surface examination, containment spray,W-1-4.00-07-012, pipe to saddle weld #80-13-WD-001;*Liquid penetrant test (PT), surface examination, weld 33.2-6-R05-WD-001,integral attachments to reactor water clean up (RWCU) piping, data report

RPV head and vessel flangeat stud #27,
NDE report 1-2.01-07-0042.The inspectors selected a sample of repair/rework activities for review that required thedevelopment and implementation of an
ASME Section

XI repair plan. The inspectors

reviewed documentation for the planned weld repair on the pressure boundary of two

ASME risk significant systems.

WO 05-12874-02 was initiated for the weld repair of the

heat exchanger stationary channel cover on Unit

2 EDG heat exchanger 2

EGS*E1C that

involved restoration of corroded locations and sealing surfaces by depositing weld metal

on an

ASME pressure boundary (safety class 1) component.

WO 07-03643-00 was

initiated for the rework of damage to the reactor head and vessel flange in the vicinity of

stud #27. The inspectors reviewed the

ASME Section

XI plans, work scope, activity

sequence, weld filler metal selection, weld procedure specifications and procedure

qualification records (PQR), welder qualifications, specified non-destructive tests,

acceptance criteria and post work testing.The inspectors selected two CRs for review in which a nondestructive examinationidentified a nonconforming condition that was accepted for continued service without

repair or rework. Components identified in

CR s 2003-1064 (

RPV head flange) and

2007-1477 (reactor building closed loop cooling pipe support) were visually inspected

and nonconforming conditions were noted that were evaluated and accepted for

continued service without repair or rework. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.1R11Licensed Operator Requalification Program (71111.11Q - 2 samples) a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors completed two licensed operator requalification training program (LORT)inspection samples. Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the

Attachment. For each scenario observed the inspectors assessed the clarity and

effectiveness of communications, the implementation of appropriate actions in response

to alarms, the performance of timely control board operation and manipulation, and the

oversight and direction provided by the shift manager. During the scenario the

inspectors also compared simulator performance with actual plant performance in the

control room. The following simulator scenarios were observed:

6Enclosure*On February 9, 2007, the inspectors observed Unit

1 LO [[]]

RT to assess operatorand instructor performance during a scenario involving a feedwater pump trip,

turbine vibrations, and a steam leak in containment that required initiation of

containment spray. The inspectors evaluated the performance of risk significant

operator actions including the use of emergency operating procedures (EOPs,)

N1-EOP-2, "RPV Control," and N1-EOP-4, "Primary Containment Control."*On March 2, 2007, the inspectors observed Unit

2 LO [[]]

RT to assess operator andinstructor performance during a scenario that involved a steam leak in the

drywell followed by a reactor scram in which several control rods failed to insert.

The inspectors evaluated the performance of risk significant operator actions

including the use of

EOP s, N1-

EOP-C5, "Failure to Scram," and N2-EOP-PC,

"Primary Containment Control." b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.1R12Maintenance Effectiveness (71111.12Q - 2 samples) a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors completed two maintenance effectiveness inspection samples. Theinspectors reviewed performance-based problems involving selected in-scope

structures, systems, or components (SSCs) to assess the effectiveness of the

maintenance program. Reviews focused on: proper Maintenance Rule (MR) scoping in

accordance with 10 CFR 50.65; characterization of reliability issues; changing system

and component unavailability; 10 CFR 50.65 (a)(1) and (a)(2) classifications; identifying

and addressing common cause failures, trending key parameters, and the

appropriateness of performance criteria for SSCs classified (a)(2) as well as the

adequacy of goals and corrective actions for SSCs classified (a)(1). The inspectors

reviewed system health reports, maintenance backlogs, and MR basis documents.

risk, industry experience, and previous site specific problems were considered. The

refueling outage and inspection sample were in-progress at the end of the inspection

period. Documents reviewed for this inspection are listed in the Attachment.*The inspectors reviewed outage schedules and procedures, and verified thatTS-required safety system availability was maintained and shutdown risk was

minimized. The inspectors verified that when specified by

NUMA [[]]

III. " b.Findings Introduction. A self-revealing Green
NCV of
TS 5.4, "Procedures," was identified onJanuary 11, 2007, when the Unit 2

RCIC system automatically isolated as a result of an

improperly performed surveillance procedure. When performing a test of the

temperature instrument that provides

RHR and

RCIC system high area temperature

isolations, technicians failed to ensure that the affected channel was bypassed prior to

disconnecting the input thermocouple. This resulted in an automatic isolation of the

RCIC system steam supply.Description. On January 11, 2007, instrument and controls technicians were performinga quarterly
ST of the high area temperature automatic isolation for the
RCIC and

RHR

systems. This function was provided by four channels of the reactor building (RB)

ambient temperature instrumentation. The test was performed using a test device in

place of the instrument channel input thermocouple to verify the high temperature

isolation setpoint. To prevent inadvertent actuation prior to disconnecting the input

thermocouple to install the test device, the associated system automatic isolation

function must be bypassed. This was done using a keylocked

RHR /

RCIC isolation

bypass switch.The surveillance procedure, N2-ISP-LDS-Q007, "Quarterly Functional Test of

RHRE quipment Area and General
RB Area Temperature Instrument Channels
2RHS *
TE 49A,
2RHS *
TE 49B,
2RHS *
TE 49C, and
2RHS *

TE49D," contained separateand similar attachments for each of the four temperature instrument channels. After

successfully completing the first two attachments, the technicians went on to test the

third temperature channel. However, in this case, the lead technician signed the

procedure to indicate that the

RHR /

RCIC isolation switch had been placed in "bypass"

before it was actually completed. The lead technician then directed the technician to

disconnect the thermocouple. Because the

RHR /

RCIC isolation switch was not in the

"bypass" position, this caused an automatic isolation of the

RC [[]]

IC steam supply.

Operators immediately recognized the error and halted the surveillance procedure.

Technicians reconnected the thermocouple, and operators restored

RC [[]]

IC to a normal

standby lineup. During the four hours that the

RC [[]]
IC steam supply was isolated, the
RCIC system was inoperable and unavailable. The
TS allowed outage time for the
RCIC system is 14 days.Analysis. The performance deficiency associated with this event was that techniciansdid not properly follow a surveillance test procedure, which caused the Unit 2

RCIC

system to automatically isolate, rendering the system unavailable to perform its safety

function. The procedure directed operators to place the

RHR /

RCIC isolation bypass

13Enclosureswitch in the "bypass" position and to verify that the switch was in "bypass" by twoindependent means prior to disconnecting the thermocouple. The technician did not

perform these steps but marked them completed. The finding is greater than minor

because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the Mitigating

Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the

availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to Initiating Events to

prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was determined to be of very low

safety significance in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix A, "Determining the

Significance of Reactor Inspection Findings for At-Power Situations." The inspectors

evaluated the significance of this finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, Phase 1, and

determined that a Phase 2 analysis was required because the finding represented an

actual loss of the

RCIC system safety function for four hours. The Region I

SRA

determined that a Phase 3 analysis was necessary because the site-specific Phase 2

notebook indicated that the finding could be more than of very low safety significance

assuming an exposure time of three days. The

SRA used the Nine Mile Point Unit 2
SP [[]]

AR model and the actual four-hour exposure time to determine that the increase in

core damage frequency was in the range of 1 core damage accident in 125,000,000

years of reactor operation, high E-9 per year. The

SP [[]]

AR model dominant cutsets were

a station blackout with failure of high pressure injection sources and the inability to

restore

AC power within 30 minutes. Based on this review, the

SRA concluded that the

finding was of very low safety significance. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in

the area of human performance because the technicians failed to use appropriate

human error prevention techniques, such as self-checking and prominent visual

identification of critical procedure steps.Enforcement. TS 5.4, "Procedures," states, in part, that, written procedures shall beestablished, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures

recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978.

Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978, Item 8, "Procedures for

Control of Measuring and Test Equipment and for STs, Procedures, and Calibrations,"

lists containment isolation tests as an applicable group of tests. Contrary to the above,

Unit 2 Instrument Surveillance Procedure N2-ISP-LDS-Q007, "Quarterly Functional Test

RB Area Temperature Instrument Channels

TE49D," was not correctlyimplemented. On January 11, 2007, Procedure Attachment 3 step 7.2.1, place and

verify the

RHR /

RCIC isolation channel bypass switch in the "bypass" position, was not

completed prior to performing Attachment 3 step 7.2.2, to disconnect the associated

channel thermocouple leads. Procedure step 5.2 in Section 5.0 "Limitations and

Actions," states, "Steps in Section 7.0 and 8.0 shall be performed in sequence."

Because this procedural noncompliance is of very low safety significance and was

entered into the

CAP as
CR 2007-0186, this violation is being treated as an
NCV ,consistent with Section

14Enclosure a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors completed two temporary modification inspection samples. For thetemporary change packages (TCPs) listed below the inspectors verified that the

installation and/or removal of temporary modifications did not affect the safety functions

for the associated systems. The inspectors assessed the adequacy of the 10 CFR 50.59

evaluations; verified that the changes did not adversely affect the system's ability to

perform its design functions as described in the

UFSAR and

TS; that the installation and

removal was consistent with the modification documentation; that the drawings and

procedures were updated as applicable; and that the post-installation and restoration

testing was adequate.*TCP No. N2-06-091, Leak Seal for

TIES4OA2Identification and Resolution of Problems.1Review of Items Entered into the CAP a.Inspection ScopeAs specified by Inspection Procedure 71152, "Identification and Resolution ofProblems," and in order to help identify repetitive equipment failures or specific human

performance issues for follow-up, the inspectors performed a daily screening of all items

entered into

NMPNS 's

CAP. The review was accomplished by accessing the

computerized database for

CR s and attending

CR screening meetings. In accordance

with the baseline inspection modules the inspectors also selected 73 CAP items across

the Initiating Events, Mitigating Systems, Barrier Integrity, and Public Radiation Safety

cornerstones for additional follow-up and review. The inspectors assessed

NMP [[]]

NS's

threshold for problem identification, the adequacy of the cause analyses, extent of

condition review, operability determinations, and the timeliness of the specified

corrective actions. The

CR s reviewed are listed in the Attachment. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.4
OA 3Event Followup (71153 - 2 samples).1Loss of Unit 1 Plant Vent Effluent Normal Monitoring CapabilityOn January 26, the Unit 1 off-gas effluent stack monitoring system (OGESMS) wasdeclared inoperable due to low sample flow. With
OGES [[]]

MS inoperable, the Offsite

Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) required that auxiliary sampling be placed in service

within eight hours. However, due to the low sample flow, attempts to place the auxiliary

stack gas sampling system in service were unsuccessful. As a result, Unit 1 could not

satisfy the

OD [[]]

CM stack sampling requirements for noble gas, particulate, and iodine.

The

OD [[]]

CM did not specify actions if both the normal and auxiliary sampling systems

were unavailable. Therefore, in response to the event,

NMP [[]]

NS developed an alternate

monitoring procedure to use in-plant monitoring equipment to estimate stack effluent

release rates.This event occurred during a period of severe winter weather.

NMP [[]]

NS suspected thecause to be an ice blockage in the common sample line. Because the sample point is

near the top of the plant stack, the weather conditions did not support direct

investigation.

NMP [[]]

NS attempted to clear the obstruction using heated pressurized

nitrogen. On January 27, 2007, this method was successful, and

OGES [[]]

MS was

returned to service. However, the sample line again became obstructed on

February 3, 2007, forcing Unit 1 to revert to the alternate monitoring procedure for stack

effluent monitoring. On February 20, 2007, weather conditions moderated to the point

16Enclosurethat the pressurized nitrogen method successfully cleared the sample line and workersreplaced the heat trace and line insulation on the exposed portion of sample line at the

top of the stack.The inspectors reviewed

NMPNS 's response to the loss of

OGESMS and reviewed thealternate monitoring procedure. The inspectors examined the event in terms of its effect

on

NMP [[]]

NS's ability to implement their emergency plan, as well as its effects on public

radiation safety. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified. .2'A' Reactor Recirculation Pump Seal Degradation (Event Notification 43223)During restoration from a planned power reduction on February 3, 2007, short durationperturbations were observed in normally stable pressures and temperatures associated

with the 'A'

RRP seal assembly. After several hours, indications returned to normal.
NMP [[]]

NS suspected that the perturbations were caused by foreign material flushed

through the seal. Operations issued a special order to establish additional monitoring of

seal parameters while changing plant conditions.Infrequent short duration seal parameter perturbations occurred randomly over the nextseveral weeks. On March 8, 2007, a sudden, substantial increase in upper seal cavity

pressure occurred, indicating that the inboard seal had failed. Operators secured and

isolated the 'A'

RRP in accordance with the

OP for RRP seal failure. This caused a

power reduction to approximately 60 percent. After stabilizing and assessing plant

conditions, operators proceeded to shut down the plant to repair the 'A'

RRP seal.The inspectors reviewed
NMPNS 's response to the short term seal parameterperturbations, and observed the operators' response to the 'A'
RRP seal degradation. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.4

PRA Assumptions Regarding
SBO Coping Time a.Inspection ScopeThis unresolved item was opened to complete a review of the impact of an incorrectprobabilistic risk assessment (

PRA) assumption that there was a high probability that

certain 11 station battery loads would be de-energized (shed) within 15 minutes of the

start of a station blackout (SBO) event. The inspectors considered this assumption

incorrect because the SBO procedure did not direct load shedding until 30 minutes into

17Enclosurethe event, the SBO procedure required other time consuming steps before loadshedding, and the operators would not have secured the loads prematurely because

some loads provided useful indications and alarms. The inspectors reviewed

NMPNS 's report

SAS-04-06, "PRA Margin Assessment for Unit1 Station Blackout DC Load Shedding." Specifically, the inspectors verified that load

shedding times coincided with SBO procedure requirements; that average, realistic

values were used for input assumptions; and that the probability of failing to load shed

was dependent on the failure to meet the procedural load-shedding times.Based on the review of

SAS -04-06 and interviews with electrical design and

PRAengineers, the inspectors determined that although the stated time in the PRA for load

shedding during an SBO was incorrect, satisfactory margin remained for 11 station

battery capacity if SBO procedure load shed time requirements were met. No violations

of NRC requirements were identified. This item is closed. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified..2Review of the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations 2006 Evaluation a.Inspection ScopeThe inspectors reviewed the interim report of the Institute Nuclear Power OperationsNovember 2006 evaluation of Nine Mile Point dated January 2, 2007. The inspectors

reviewed the report to ensure that issues identified were consistent with the

NRC perspective of
NMP [[]]

NS's performance and to identify significant safety issues that

required

NRC follow-up. b.FindingsNo findings of significance were identified.4
