Title | Failure to Meet Minimum Shift Manning Requirements Due to Inattentiveness |
Description | An NRC-identified NCV of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, was identified on November 21, 2008, when minimum shift staffing decreased below the requirements contained in procedure ND-OPS, Operations, because a Ginna auxiliary operator (AO) was inattentive. The individual of concern was assigned the shift role of \"primary AO\" and was responsible for performing rounds in the auxiliary building, as well as valve manipulations to support plant testing/operation. Further, he was one of the five members of the site fire brigade. Ginnas immediate corrective action consisted of relieving the AO of his duties, and in accordance with Ginnas policy, subjecting the AO to a for-cause fitness for duty drug test. Shift staffing was restored to the full complement outlined in ND-OPS within one hour, when an additional AO arrived on-site. This finding is more than minor, because it could reasonably be viewed as a precursor to a significant event. Specifically, while inattentive, the AO may not have been able to respond to a plant event which reduces the effectiveness of event mitigation. This finding has been reviewed by NRC management in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix M, \"Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria,\" and was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because staffing for the operating shift and fire brigade was restored to a full complement within one hour after the AO was relieved, and because no initiating events occurred during that time. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance because the AO did not implement effective actions to remain fit for duty (H.4.a per IMC 0305). (Section 4OA5 |
