| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | 10 CFR 50.54(k) requires a licensed operator shall be present at the controls at all times during the operation of the facility. Additionally, CENG procedure CNG-OP- 1.01-1000, Conduct of Operations, Revision 00900, requires reactor operators to ensure that one operator assumes the reactor operator function to comply with 10 CFR 50.54(k). Contrary to 10 CFR 50.54(k), on June 1, 2013, operators identified that for a very short time period there was no licensed operator at the controls. One reactor operator was behind the main control board performing an evolution and two other senior licensed operators were in the shift managers office which is also behind the main control board. The cause of the time period with no licensed operator at the controls was that each board operator thought the other was the at the controls operator. Corrective action included instating a control board monitoring badge to clearly define the operator at the controls. The issue was entered into the CAP as CR-2013-003494. The inspectors determined that the finding was more than minor because it was associated with human performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The finding was of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, issued June 19, 2012, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems, Screening Questions, Section C, Reactivity Control Systems. The finding screens to Green because the finding did not affect the reactor protection system, did not involve control manipulations, and did not result in a mismanagement of reactivity by operators. |
