| Title | Failure to Properly Implement Time Critical Operator Action Program Procedure |
| Description | The team identified a non-cited violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1, Procedures and Programs, for the licensees failure to implement procedure 0-ADM-232, Time Critical Action Program, to ensure time critical actions (TCAs) important to mitigate design basis events could be performed in the required time. The failure to implement this procedure was a performance deficiency. No documentation existed to demonstrate that the TCA to restore power to the battery chargers during a station blackout could be performed within the required time (30 minutes). The team also identified a TCA to locally isolate the auxiliary feedwater for a faulted steam generator that did not have a job performance measure to demonstrate the successful completion of the action. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program as action requests 01944453, 01945532, 01943321, 01943425, and 01943697. For TCAs where no validation documentation could be determined, the licensee completed tabletop exercises, simulator exercises, and field walkdowns to ensure that all of the TCAs to mitigate design basis events could be completed within the required action times. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Human Performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee did not implement 0-ADM-232 adequately to ensure that the TCAs listed in Attachment 1 of the procedure were properly validated; consequently, the licensee could not demonstrate that TCAs could be successfully executed in accordance with the design basis. The team determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system, or component, and did not result in a loss of operability or functionality; and did not represent a loss of system and/or function. The team determined this finding was associated with the cross-cutting aspect of Procedure Adherence in the area of Human Performance because although the procedure was recently revised to include all necessary requirements to maintain the time critical action program, the licensee failed to follow procedure 0-ADM-232, which resulted in several TCAs not being properly validated. |
