| Title | Inadequate Applicability Reviews of Configuration Changes for De-Energizing Safety-Related Valves |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) related to inadequate applicability reviews of operational configuration changes that were implemented as a result of the licensee's Multiple Spurious Operation (MSO) evaluations. Specifically, the licensee failed to follow procedural requirements for determining the applicability for performing 10 CFR 50.59 screening and evaluations for changes made to the facility which de-energized several safety-related motor operated valves (MOVs). The procedural action required that the configuration changes be screened for applicability for a specific 10 CFR Part 50.59 evaluation since aspects of the changes were not completely controlled under the licensee's Fire Protection Program. The licensee entered this issue into their Corrective Action Program to perform a 10 CFR 50.59 screening of changes for each affected system to ensure that all aspects of component design were evaluated. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because the issue, if left uncorrected, would have become a more significant safety concern. Specifically, by not individually evaluating the scope and applicability of plant configuration changes, the licensee lost the ability to ensure that all aspects of component design were appropriately evaluated against the plant's design and licensing basis. Such changes have the potential to adversely affect design or operation of systems. Failure to evaluate such aspects allows the potential for adverse changes to go undetected. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance because the licensee became complacent during the conduct of performing applicability reviews that were related to the facility's Fire Protection Program, and failed to recognize changes that included elements outside of the scope of fire protection.
