| Title | Inadequate Procedure Adherence Resulting in a Loss of Normal Control Room Communications |
| Description | A self-revealing NCV of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, was identified on August 28, 2008, when Ginna technicians failed to adequately implement CME-38-01-BYCTSC, Solid State Controls, 500 Amp Battery Charger Maintenance for BYCTSC which resulted in a loss of power to communications equipment for the control room and subsequent declaration of an Unusual Event (UE). Ginna entered this issue into their corrective action program for resolution. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the facilities and equipment performance attribute of the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring that Ginna was capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) using IMC 0609, Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process, in that it was associated with an actual event classified as an Unusual Event, the loss of communication was for a short period of time, and compensatory measures were implemented. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because Ginna personnel failed to correctly implement expected human performance tools which directly contributed to the loss of power to the control room communications systems and declaration of a UE (H.4.a per IMC 0305).
