Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | Violation: Technical Specification (TS) 3.0.4 states in part that entry into a MODE or other specified condition in the Applicability of a limiting condition for operation (LCO) shall only be made when the LCOs Surveillances have been met... TS 3.7.5 Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) Limiting Condition SR 3.7.5.1 required in part Verify each AFW manual, power operated, and automatic valve in each water path, and in both steam supply flow paths to the steam turbine driven pump, that is not locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, is in the correct position. Contrary to the above, at 1500 on October 29, 2017, Unit 1 entered MODE 3 and the licensee failed to verify that AFW (System required for MODE 3) turbine driven (TD) AFW steam supply valves 1MS235 and 1MS237 were in the correct (open) position. These valves were in fact shut rendering the TDAFW pump inoperable until the licensee identified this error and opened these valves at 1610 on October 29, 2017(reference; Licensee Event Report 05000266/201700200, Operation or Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications). Significance/Severity: This licensee identified finding, affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and was screened in accordance with IMC 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At Power, issued June 19, 2012. Because of the short duration (~1 hour) that the TDAFW pump was not operable, the inspectors determined that this finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because: the performance deficiency was not a design or qualification issue; it did not represent a loss of the system function; the train was neither inoperable for greater than its allowed outage time nor was it inoperable for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />; and was not part of an external event mitigating system.
