Title | Failure to Verify Adequate Closure Margin |
Description | A self-revealing non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, was identified when the licensee failed to follow their modification process. The licensee did not verify the valve actuator margin to be greater than the margin specified in procedure EDM 601, Engineering Change Manual, following internal changes to the reactor coolant system (RCS) letdown line outboard containment isolation valves (CIVs) on all three units. As a result, the CIVs would not have fully closed as required against all postulated differential pressures (dPs) for events defined in Chapter 15 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report. The licensee entered this issue into their Corrective Action Program (CAP) as Problem Investigation Program report (PIP) O-11-0218. The licensees failure to implement the modification process was a performance deficiency (PD). The PD was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Barrier Integrity cornerstone attribute of Design Control and adversely impacted the cornerstone objective in that the RCS letdown line outboard CIVs could not perform their design function to fully close during all postulated events. The inspectors determined that a Phase 3 analysis was required. A Phase 3 was performed by a regional SRA who determined this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the line break Large Early Release Frequency, and the Station Blackout/Standby Shutdown Facility core damage frequency results were less than 1X10-6. No cross cutting aspects were identified based on the issue not being indicative of current licensee performance. |
