| Title | Failure to Comply with the Requirements of an RWP by Entering a Posted High Radiation Area |
| Description | A Green self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specifications 5.4.1, Procedures, was identified for a radiation worker who failed to follow the requirements of Radiation Work Permit 09270081 as required by procedure RCI-9.1, Radiation Work Permits, Rev. 57. The licensee has entered this issue into the corrective action program as problem evaluation report 171375. This finding is greater than minor because it is associated with the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone attribute of Program and Process (Exposure Control) and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring adequate protection of worker health and safety from exposure to radiation from radioactive material during routine civilian nuclear reactor operation. The finding was evaluated using the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not related to As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) planning, nor did it involve an overexposure or substantial potential for overexposure, and the ability to assess dose was not compromised. The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross-cutting aspect of work practices in the area of Human Performance, because the radiation worker failed to use self-checking prior to passing through the swing gate into the posted high radiation area (H.4.a) |
