Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | According to 10 CFR 55.21 and 33, licensed operators are required to have a physical examination every 2 years to ensure that their medical condition and general health will not adversely affect the performance of assigned operator job duties or cause operational errors endangering public health and safety. As a part of licensed operator medical evaluations, olfactory testing is required as specified in ANSI/ANS 3.4 1983. Olfactory testing in the standard states, Nose. Ability to detect odor of products of combustion and of tracer and marker gases. Contrary to this requirement, in CR-2014-003860, Exelon identified that Ginna medical staff had not been testing operators for the mercaptan marker used in natural gas. This violation is subject to traditional enforcement because of the potential impact upon the regulatory process since the operators medical conditions are reviewed by the NRC when issuing or renewing operator licenses. This issue meets the criteria for a Severity Level IV violation
because upon subsequent olfactory testing, all operators were found to meet the health requirements for licensing. |
