Title | Inappropriate Voltage Band in Lee Combustion Turbine Unit Operating Procedure |
Description | Green. The NRC identified a NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to identify appropriate procedural updates that were needed to ensure the Lee combustion turbine (LCT) procedures were appropriate for the circumstances and maintained current. Specifically, the licensee did not include appropriate operational limitations in procedures associated with the LCTs. In response, the licensee generated NCR 2058763, verified the LCT automatic voltage regulator setpoint was, and had been, 13.8kV, and generated a corrective action to revise the affected procedures limits to 13.78kV, a value bounded by station analyses. This performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the procedure quality attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone, and adversely impacted the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, Oconees failure to limit the operating voltage band of the LCTs to an amount that was demonstrated as acceptable by analysis resulted in doubt on their capability to provide power to safety-related equipment during an accident. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating SSC, and the SSC maintained its operability or functionality. No cross-cutting aspect was assigned because the inspectors determined that the finding was not indicative of current licensee performance, because the update to the procedures occurred in January and October 2007, after replacement of the LCTs. |
