| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Technical Specification 5.4.1.d requires the license to establish, implement, and maintain written procedures covering implementation of programs specified in Technical Specifications 5.5. Technical Specification 5.5.8 details requirements for the Explosive Gas and Storage Tank Radioactivity Monitoring Program. The program requires, in part, a surveillance program to ensure the limits are maintained appropriate to the systems design criteria. Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to implement surveillances within the frequency as allowed by Surveillance Requirement 3.0.2 that ensured off gas hydrogen was maintained in accordance with the Explosive Gas and Storage Tank Radioactivity Monitoring Program. Specifically, the Unit 1 1B off gas hydrogen analyzer surveillance was not completed prior to exceeding the grace period. A review of the surveillance work history revealed that the surveillance was late on September 3, 2011. This condition was discovered on September 6, 2011. Upon discovery, the hydrogen analyzer was declared inoperable and the surveillance was performed prior to any required actions per the applicable Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) in accordance with Surveillance Requirement 3.0.3. This issue was documented in IR 1259998. This issue is more than minor because the performance deficiency affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability and capability of systems to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding is of very low safety significance or Green because the hydrogen analyzer met the surveillance requirements and there was reasonable assurance that the hydrogen analyzer would have been able to function properly. Therefore, this finding screened as Green in accordance with IMC 0609. |
