Title | Failure to Take Adequate Corrective Action to Preclude Repetition of a Significant Condition Adverse to Quality Associated with the Steam Generator Tube Leak |
Description | The team identified a Green NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Actions, for the licensees failure to take adequate corrective action to prevent repetition of a significant condition adverse to quality regarding steam generator tube leakage due to poor maintenance practices. Specifically, on February 27, 2014, the C steam generator showed indications of a primary to secondary tube leak due to foreign material that was introduced during the fall 2013 refueling outage. As immediate corrective actions, on March 7, 2014, the licensee shutdown the plant and repaired the leak. This violation was entered into the licensees CAP as nuclear condition reports (NCRs) 683695, 683593, and 683591. The licensees failure to implement appropriate corrective actions to address poor worker practices to prevent recurrence of a steam generator tube leak was a performance deficiency. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the initiating events cornerstone equipment performance attribute and it adversely affected the cornerstone objective to limit the likelihood of events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. Specifically, foreign material entered the steam generator and damaged a steam generator tube, which increased the likelihood of a steam generator tube rupture. The inspectors screened this finding using IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significant Determination Process (SDP) For Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012. The finding screened as Green per Section D of Exhibit 1, Initiating Events Screening Questions, because testing showed that the affected steam generator tube could sustain three times the differential pressure across the tube during normal full power and that the steam generator did not violate the accident leakage performance criterion. The performance deficiency does not have a cross cutting aspect because the last revision of the root cause evaluation was completed in 2011 and it is not indicative of current licensee performance. |
