SUMMARY OF FINDINGS

IR 05000445/2012005, 05000446/2012005; 9/27/2012 - 12/31/2012; Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2 Integrated Resident and Regional Report; Operability Evaluations. The report covered a 3-month period of inspection by resident inspectors and announced baseline inspections by region-based inspectors. One Green non-cited violation was identified. The significance of most findings is indicated by their color (Green, White, Yellow, or Red) using Inspection Manual Chapter The cross-the Cross- Findings for which the significance determination process does not apply may be Green or be assigned a severity level after NRC management review. The NRC's program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG- 4, dated December 2006.

A. NRC-Identified Findings and Self-Revealing Findings

Cornerstone: Mitigating Systems

Green.

The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for the failure of the licensee to follow procedure and properly replace diesel generator governor oil. As a result, foreign material was introduced into the governor and caused a diesel generator start failure. The licensee replaced the governor to correct the problem. The licensee entered the finding into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-2012-006280. follow procedure and properly replace the diesel generator governor oil was a performance deficiency which resulted in a diesel generator start failure. The finding was more 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 reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-screened to a detailed risk evaluation because it represented an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. A senior reactor analyst evaluated the risk and determined that the risk was of very low safety significance. The finding has a human performance cross-cutting aspect associated with work control, in that, the job site conditions impacted the human performance of the work activity H.3b]. (Section 1R15)

B. Licensee-Identified Violations

None.

REPORT DETAILS

Summary of Plant Status Unit 1 began the inspection period at approximately 100 percent power. On November 2, 2012, operators initiated a manual reactor trip as a result of a reactor coolant pump 4 lower motor bearing high temperature. The unit was cooled to Mode 5 to repair the motor bearing. On November 11, 2012, operators performed a reactor startup and closed the main generator output breakers, placing Unit 1 on the grid. On November 12, 2012, the unit returned to approximately 100 percent power and operated at approximately 100 percent power for the remainder of the reporting period. Unit 2 began the inspection period at approximately 100 percent power. On October 6, 2012, the operators shut down Unit 2 to begin a scheduled refueling outage. On November 2, 2012, the outage ended when the main generator output breakers were closed and Unit 2 was placed on the grid. On November 6, 2012, the unit returned to approximately 100 percent power and operated at that power level for approximately 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> before reducing power to 49 percent as a result of high sodium levels in the steam generators. On November 11, 2012, after steam generator sodium levels improved and repairs to the auxiliary condensers were completed, the unit returned to approximately 100 percent power. On November 17, 2012, the unit experienced an automatic reactor trip as a result of a low steam generator level. The low level was the result of a transient initiated by the heater drain system. The licensee repaired the heater drain system and commenced a reactor startup the same day. On November 18, operators closed the main generator output breakers and the unit returned to approximately 100 percent power the following day. On November 20, 2012, operators initiated a manual runback of the turbine to 900 megawatts, approximately 75 percent power, as a result of a transient of the heater drain system. The licensee returned the unit to approximately 100 percent power the same day and operated at approximately 100 percent power for the remainder of the reporting period.

b. Findings

Introduction.

The inspectors reviewed a Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a for the failure of the licensee to follow procedure and properly replace diesel generator governor oil. As a result, foreign material was introduced into the governor and caused a diesel generator start failure. The licensee replaced the governor to correct the problem.

Description.

On June 20, 2012, the licensee initiated a surveillance test of diesel generator 2-01. During the test, the engine started to crank but the engine speed would not exceed 200 revolutions per minute and after approximately 100 seconds, operators shut down the diesel generator. Normal speed for the engine is 450 revolutions per minute. A few hours later and as part of troubleshooting, operators performed a normal slow start of the diesel engine. The governor output shaft did not move for the first 30 seconds and then moved. The engine reached rated speed at 55 seconds and appeared to be operating correctly. During a slow start, the diesel generator would reach rated speed in approximately 38 seconds. determined that the cause of the diesel generator failure to start was a failure of the mechanical governor to function on the demand start. The failure of the governor was the result of a soft particle stuck either in the governor pilot valve or an internal check valve. The inspectors reviewed the apparent cause evaluation and determined that maintenance personnel replaced the governor oil on April 11, 2011. Procedure MSM-C0-written instructions for performing maintenance of diesel generator governors. Step 5.1 and the caution prior to Step 8.4.6 required, in part, to exercise extreme care to prevent the entry of foreign material into clean systems and that the cleanliness of governor internals is of upmost importance to governor operation. Erratic governor behavior and failure has been caused by contamination of governor oil system. On April 11, 2011, the licensee failed to exercise extreme care to prevent the entry of foreign material into the governor. As a result, foreign material was introduced into the governor and that caused a diesel generator start failure. The licensee replaced the governor and returned the diesel generator to operation.

The inspectors performed a walkdown of the governor and determined that the confined area near the governor created a challenge to keep foreign material from entering the governor. The inspectors determined that the governor oil replacement was the likely cause of the introduction of foreign material into the governor.

Analysisgenerator governor oil was a performance deficiency which resulted in a diesel generator start failure. The finding was more 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 reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter At-actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time.

A senior reactor analyst performed a detailed evaluation of the finding. Diesel generator 2-01 failed to start after a period of seven days from the previous successful start. The analyst assumed that once the diesel generator was up to rated speed and Therefore, the change in risk is restricted to the 7-day period and is further reduced to 3.5 days to reflect a T/2 assumption. The standardized plant analysis risk model, Revision 8.22, was run at a truncation of 1.0E-11, average test and maintenance, and diesel generator 2-01 fail-to-a common cause potential. The resulting delta-core damage frequency was 2.31E-4. For a 3.5 day exposure, the incremental conditional core damage probability was 2.2E-6. The analyst noted that two mitigating factors were not included in the standardized plant analysis risk model result. First, the alternate power generators are not modeled. These units have been evaluated in the past to result in a mitigation factor of greater than one order of magnitude for diesel generator failures. Second, the manner of the failure was such that the diesel generator started successfully without any corrective action other than a repeated attempt to start. Thus, the recovery factors in the standardized plant analysis risk model, which are based on average failure states, are overly-bounding for this case. The analyst qualitatively determined that the internal events incremental conditional core damage probability would be below 1.0E-7 when these factors are taken into consideration. There are no external events that would result in a significant increase in the significance.

Technical Specification 5.4.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, Item 9.a, requires, in part, that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be performed in accordance with written procedures. Procedure MSM-C0-uctions for performing maintenance of diesel generator governors. Step 5.1 and the caution prior to Step 8.4.6 required, in part, to exercise extreme care to prevent the entry of foreign material into clean systems and that the cleanliness of governor internals is of upmost importance to governor operation. Erratic governor behavior and failure has been caused by contamination of governor oil system.

Contrary to the above, on April 11, 2011, the licensee failed to implement written procedures as required by Technical Specification 5.4.1.a. Specifically, the licensee failed to implement Procedure MSM-C0-3367 and exercise extreme care to prevent the entry of foreign material into the governor when replacing the governor oil. As a result, foreign material was introduced into the governor and caused a diesel generator start failure. The licensee replaced the governor and returned the diesel generator to operation. Because the violation was of very low safety significance and was documented in the licenseeCR-2012-006280, it is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy: NCV 05000446/2012005-Foreign Material in Diesel Generator Governor Causes Start Fa
