Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | The following violation of very low safety significance (Green) was identified by Exelon and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of the NRC Enforcement Policy for being dispositioned as an NCV.Technical Specification 6.4 Procedures, Section 6.4.1, states, in part, that, written procedures and administrative policies shall be established, implemented and maintained ... that cover the following activities: a. The applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Appendix A, November 3, 1972.Appendix A of RG 1.33 lists typical safety-related activities which should be covered by written procedures. Section I.1 of RG 1.33 includes procedures for performing maintenance which can affect the performance of safety-related equipment and should be properly pre-planned and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawings appropriate to the circumstances. Section 4.3.4 of MA-AA-796-024, Scaffold Installation, Inspection, and Removal, Revision 11 states to ensure an adequate inspection is performed upon completion of scaffold erection for planned maintenance. Contrary to the above, on June 29, 2017 it was identified by Exelon staff that a scaffold surrounding the 11 feedwater flow control valve, FCV-29-141, would have prevented manual operation as required in accordance with EOP-1, NMP1 EOP Support Procedure, Revision 01601 Attachment 26, Reactor Pressure Valve Level Control Through Feedwater Pumps 11 and 12 flow control valves, and other special operating procedures during the previous 45 days.The inspectors evaluated the finding using IMC 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because the finding was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not represent a loss of system safety function, and did not screen as potentially risk significant due to seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. Because this violation was determined to be of very low safety significance and entered into the CAP as IR 4027382, it is being treated as an NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. |
