| Title | Inadequate Operator Fundamentals during Diesel Driven Fire Pump Surveillance Testing |
| Description | An NRC-identified finding was identified for the failure to adequately implement OP-AA-100-1000, Conduct of Operations procedure. Specifically, non-licensed operators (NLOs) failed to identify that the diesel driven fire pump (DDFP) was operating in a degraded condition. The outboard shaft gland was at elevated temperature because there was no packing leakoff established. Plant operators initiated an action request (AR) 2220785 to repair the stuffing box packing and the DDFP was declared non-functional. The electric driven fire pump (EDFP) remained functional and available to supply 100% of the fire water capacity while the DDFP was non-functional. This issue has been entered into the licensees corrective action program as ARs 2220785 and 2226305.The failure to identify that the DDFP was operating in a degraded condition was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the protection against external hazards (fire) attribute of the initiating events cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstones objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown, as well as power operations. Specifically, NLOs did not identify a degrading and unreliable DDFP condition. The inspectors determined that the issue had very low safety significance (Green) because the EDFP remained available to provide 100 percent of the required fire water capacity. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Avoid Complacency, because NLOs did not recognize and consider that the DDFP was operating without adequate packing gland leakoff after a significant idle period [H.12] |
