| Title | Failure to Maintain Requalification Examination Integrity |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.49 for engaging in an activity that compromised, or would have compromised but for detection by the inspectors, the integrity of examinations required by 10 CFR 55.59 that were administered in 2007 and that were planned to be administered in 2008. The examination compromise would have affected the equitable and consistent administration of the operational portion of the requalification annual examination. The inspectors identified that three job performance measures (JPM) sets administered in 2007 contained an unacceptable number of JPMs that had previously been administered during that same examination cycle. The inspectors also identified that the JPMs scheduled to be performed in the last three weeks of the 2008 requalification examination had all been previously administered in the first three weeks of the 2008 requalification examination. When notified of the examination schedule overlap issue, the licensee changed the examination schedule to prevent the overlap issue in 2008 and entered the problem into their corrective action program as problem evaluation report 158635. This finding is more than minor because if left uncorrected, it could become a more significant safety concern, in that, licensed operators would not be adequately tested to ensure an acceptable knowledge level for performing licensed duties. Using the Licensed Operator Requalification Significance Determination Process, this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the performance deficiency was immediately corrected upon discovery. The cause of the finding was that the licensee did not comply with requirements of TRN-11.10, Annual Requalification Examination Development and Implementation. The finding was related to the crosscutting aspect of procedural compliance of the work control component of the crosscutting area of Human Performance (H.4(b)). (Section 1R11.2 |
