Title | Failure to Control the Configuration of Door 45 during Modification |
Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, when the licensee failed to properly implement work instructions during the modification of reactor building doors which have both secondary containment and high energy line break (HELB) mitigation functions. Specifically, the licensee failed to ensure that the work documents used to perform the modification and the level of supervision of the performance of the work tasks were adequate to ensure that the HELB function of the doors remained available, as required by existing plant conditions, during the implementation of the modification. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP), and corrective actions for this issue included performing a root cause evaluation, resetting their site event clock, and revising the work documents associated with door 45 and door 46 modifications to include multiple barriers to ensure that the doors remain capable of performing their required functions during a HELB event. The inspectors determined that the contributing cause that provided the most insight into the performance deficiency was associated with the cross-cutting area of Human Performance, having work practices components, and involving aspects associated with the licensee ensuring supervisory and management oversight of work activities, including contractors, such that nuclear safety is supported H.4(c). The inspectors determined that the licensees failure to adequately control the configuration of door 45 during the modification work was a performance deficiency, because it was the result of the failure to meet a requirement; the cause was reasonably within the licensees ability to foresee and correct; and should have been prevented. The inspectors screened the performance deficiency per Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, and determined that the issue was more than minor because it impacted the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). The inspectors applied IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, to this finding. The inspectors evaluated the issue under the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone, and utilized Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, to screen the finding. The inspectors answered No to all the questions in Section A, Mitigating Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs) and Functionality, and Section B, External Event Mitigating Systems, and determined the finding to be of very low safety significance. |
