10 CFR 26.205(d)(7), Work Hour Controls, requires, in part that the licensee shall control the work hours of individuals to less than a weekly average of
54 hours6.25e-4 days <br />0.015 hours <br />8.928571e-5 weeks <br />2.0547e-5 months <br />, calculated using an average period of six weeks. Contrary to this requirement, seven covered workers violated the work hour limits on thirteen occasions. Specifically, following the Spring 2014 forced outage, the licensee failed to recode all covered workers to an on-line status. This finding was more than minor because if left uncorrected, the failure to change the individual coding from off-line to on-line status would have allowed all covered workers onsite to exceed work hour limits, and could
lead to a more significant safety concern. This violation was determined to be of very low safety significance because no significant events or human performance issues were directly linked to personnel fatigue as a result of the hours worked. The licensee entered this issue into their
CAP as CR 698782.
