| Title | |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance involving a non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control. Specifically, the licensee failed to verify the applicability of design basis information, related to critical vortex height to assure adequate low pressure injection (LPI) pump suction conditions, before translating that information into the shutdown operations procedure for draining the reactor coolant system. This finding is greater than minor because if left uncorrected, the finding would become a more significant safety concern. In particular, the station routinely uses older calculations, test information, and analyses to establish operator action or alarm set points, support operability determinations, or change the design of the plant. If the applicability of that information is not verified for the system configuration and conditions under review, the quality of that engineering product could be compromised, resulting in a significant safety concern. The finding was determined to be of very low significance, via Manual Chapter (MC) 0609, Appendix G, Attachment 1, Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process (SDP), Phase 1 because it did not significantly degrade the station capability to recover decay heat removal. The cause of the finding is related to the cross-cutting area of problem identification and resolution, specifically with respect to corrective action, because the licensee did not thoroughly evaluate the previous similar finding in the 2006 Oconee Component Design Bases Inspection (CDBI) such that the resolution adequately addressed causes and extent of condition (MC 0305, aspect P.1.c).
