| Title | Inadequate Acceptance Criteria for Fire Door Surveillance Procedure |
| Description | A finding of very low safety significance was identified by the inspectors for the failure to provide appropriate acceptance criteria for the fire door surveillance procedure. Specifically, the acceptance criteria for fire door functionality did not specify that doors, when opened, returned to the closed and latched position. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program and planned to revise the surveillance procedure. The finding was determined to be more than minor because, if left uncorrected, the failure to have appropriate acceptance criteria would become a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the lack of appropriate fire door functionality acceptance criteria could result in a nonfunctional door closing mechanism and a degraded fire barrier not being detected during surveillance activities. This finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Events (Fire) and affected the cornerstone objective of preventing undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance because the inspectors did not identify any instances where a fire door was left open or unlatched, or an instance where a fire door which would not close on its own and was not monitored for closure. Consequently, the inspectors determined that the finding represented a low degradation and, as such, this finding screened as Green. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance, work practices, because the licensees failure to follow procedures, such as the procedure writers guide, resulted in the failure to provide appropriate acceptance criteria for the fire door surveillance procedure H.4(b). |
