This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as an
NCV, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Polic
Violation: Title
10 CFR 50, Part B, Criterion XII requires that measures shall be established to assure that tools, gages, instruments, and other measuring and testing devices used in activities affecting quality are properly controlled, calibrated, and adjusted at specified periods to maintain accuracy within necessary limits.Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to assure that tools, gages, instruments, and other measuring and testing devices used in activities affecting quality were properly controlled. Specifically, the licensee did not include all
M&TE devices in their control tracking program, which could result in instruments not being evaluated if associated
M&TE fails its post-calibration.Significance/Severity Level: The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to
lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors assessed the significance of the finding using
SDP Appendix A and concluded the violation was of very low safety significance (Green).
