| Title | Shift Manager Working Outage Hours May Be Contrary To Guidance |
| Description | The inspectors selected the SM position for review as a selected issue follow-up inspection due to potential issues with the application of the rule to the SM position during the recent Unit 1 refueling outage. The inspectors found that the licensee had placed the SM on outage hours as indicated by 10 CFR 26, Subpart I, Managing Fatigue. The inspectors reviewed the requirements of 10 CFR 26.205(d)(4) to assess if the SM position could be exempted from the operating hour restrictions. The inspectors inquired about the practice, and the licensee indicated that alternate licensed and active SROs on operating hours were available to relieve the SM if needed. The inspectors found that the alternate operator was located outside of the control room performing outage related duties, but was not able to ascertain if the alternate operator was meaningfully and fully engaged in the activities of a watch stander on the operating unit. Therefore, the inspectors were concerned that the alternate operator could not be credited as an SRO on watch. At the conclusion of the inspection period, the inspectors and NRR were reviewing the regulatory requirements and the nexus of those requirements to the licensees practice of designating an alternate SRO as the SM. Additionally, the licensee was reviewing the activities performed by the alternate watch stander to ascertain if the position could be credited as being on-watch. This issue is unresolved pending the aforementioned reviews |
