| Title | Conduct of Operations Procedure Violation |
| Description | The team identified a Green, non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1, Procedures. The team determined that assistant unit operators (AUOs) failure to comply with Procedure OPDP-1, Rev. 26, Conduct of Operations, Sections 4.2 K. and M., related to the missing A1 RHRSW pump discharge valve label plate and the AUOs inadequate walkdown of the A1 RHRSW pump prior to the planned quarterly surveillance test pump start on May 6, 2013, were performance deficiencies that were reasonably within BFNs ability to foresee and correct. Immediate corrective actions by the licensee included revising the conduct of operations procedure, and enter the issue in the corrective action program as PERs 13161, 701486, and 722859. This Finding was more than minor because, if TVAs failure to follow the Procedure OPDP-1 requirements was left uncorrected, the performance deficiencies would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern, such as more severe plant transients, or engineered safeguard system actuations or malfunctions. Additionally, this issue is similar to Example 4.e in IMC 0612, Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, in that the A1 RHRSW pump discharge valve was missing the valve label plate and AUOs did not stop the A2 RHRSW pump clearance application to correct the valve label issue prior to proceeding with the danger tag application. This action was required by TVA Corporate Procedure OPDP-1, Rev. 26, Conduct of Operations, and resulted in an improper valve manipulation due, in part, to the missing label plate. The team determined that this Finding was of very low safety significance (GREEN) because it did not represent an actual loss of safety function or safety systems out of service for greater than the TS allowed outage time. The team determined that this Finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Work Control. Specifically, the licensee plans and coordinates work activities, consistent with nuclear safety. In addition, the licensee appropriately coordinates work activities by incorporating actions to address: the impact of changes to the work scope or activity on the plant and human performance, the impact of the work on different job activities, and the need for work groups to maintain interfaces with offsite organizations, and communicate, coordinate, and cooperate with each other during activities in which interdepartmental coordination is necessary to assure plant and human performance, the need to keep personnel apprised of work status, the operational impact of work activities, and plant conditions that may affect work activities. |
