| Title | Failure to Take Prompt Corrective Actions for Recurring Cold Weather Issues |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding and associated Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, having very low safety significance (Green) for the licenses failure to take prompt corrective actions to address recurring cold weather issues in the facade building which again occurred in January 2008. The failure to take prompt corrective actions led to the formation of ice on offsite power and plant equipment cable trays and cabling, which supplied offsite power to both Units busses. The sheets of ice were also in proximity to the Unit 2 refueling water storage tank level indicators and outlet piping. The licensee initiated condition reports, took immediate corrective actions, and was performing a causal evaluation at the end of the inspection period. The finding is more than minor because if left uncorrected the finding would become a more significant safety concern in that the formation of ice in the facade building in this case could have affected safety-related equipment. Because the ice buildup in the Unit 2 facade was an external factor and transient initiator contributor that did not contribute to both the likelihood of a reactor trip and the likelihood that mitigation equipment or functions would not be available, the finding is considered to be of very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because the licensee did not take appropriate corrective actions in a timely manner, commensurate with their safety significance and complexity (P.1(d)).
