| Title | Failure to Control Dose to Worker in Locked High Radiation Area |
| Description | A finding of very low safety significance and an NCV was self-revealed following the licensees failure to control dose to workers as specified in the radiation work permit (RWP) and as required by Technical Specification (TS) 5.7.2. Specifically, inadequacies in the licensees process for performing remote dose monitoring, resulted in workers exceeding their authorized RWP dose limits. Therefore the dose was not controlled as required by TS. The licensee has entered the condition into their corrective action program (CAP). Corrective actions included revising procedures for remote radiological job coverage for workers wearing multiple dosimeters. The finding was more than minor because it is addressed in Example 6.h of IMC 0612 Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues. Additionally, the inspectors determined that the finding was more than minor because it is associated with the program and process attribute, and affected the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone objective to ensure the adequate protection of the worker health and safety from exposure to radiation from radioactive material during routine civilian nuclear reactor operations. This finding was assessed using IMC 0609, Attachment C for the Occupational Radiation Safety SDP and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because this failure did not involve as-low-as-is-reasonably-achievable (ALARA) planning or work controls; did not result in an overexposure or substantial potential for overexposure and there was not a compromised ability to assess dose. The finding was caused by vague procedural guidance. Consequently, this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance resources. Specifically, the licensee ensures that resources are available and adequate to maintain complete, accurate, and up to date procedures. |
