| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | The licensee identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4). This regulation states that, A standard emergency classification and action level scheme, the bases of which include facility system and effluent parameters, is in use by the nuclear facility licensee, and State and local response plans call for reliance on information provided by facility licensees for determinations of minimum initial offsite response measures. Contrary to this, the emergency action level (EAL) classification scheme contained an initiating condition that had been rendered ineffective, such that an Alert would not have been declared. Specifically, the licensee\'s EAL RA1.2 specified an instrument set-point beyond the limit of the process radiation monitors capability. This event was documented in the licensees CAP as apparent cause evaluation (ACE) 1242696. Revision 43 of Procedure A.2-101, Classification of Emergencies, was revised to include an Alert value that was on scale of the instrumentation and fleet procedure (FP)-R-EP-05, Revision and Control of the Emergency Plan and Emergency Actions, was revised to provide direction on future EAL set-point changes. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it could reasonably be viewed as a precursor to a significant event, due to the potential for a delayed Alert declaration. Using IMC 0609, Appendix B, for EP SDP, Figure 5.4-1, Significance Determination for Ineffective EALs, the event would be declared in a degraded manner (not timely). The inspectors determined the finding to be of very low significance. |
