| Title | Inadequate HELB Barrier Controls |
| Description | The inspectors identified a Green NCV of TS 6.8.1, Procedures and Programs, as described in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Revision 2, when PSEG did not properly implement high energy line break (HELB) barrier controls in accordance with CC-AA-201, Plant Barrier Control, during maintenance activities that affected the performance of safetyrelated equipment on October 1, 2 and 17, 2013. PSEG entered the issue into the CAP under notifications 20623371 and 20633614. This finding was more than minor because it was associated with the configuration control attribute of the Mitigating System cornerstone, and adversely affected its objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, improper barrier controls could potentially affect the operating equipment in the case of a HELB. This performance deficiency required a detailed risk evaluation (DRE) in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix A, screening questions in Exhibits 2, Mitigating Systems, because of an assumed loss of the AFW system decay heat removal safety function. The inspectors and a Region I Senior Reactor Analyst (SRA) conducted a bounding DRE and determined this finding to be of very low safety significance (Green). This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Work Control, in that licensees plan and coordinate work activities by incorporating the need for planned contingencies, compensatory actions, and abort criteria. Specifically, PSEG did not properly plan and coordinate compensatory actions via station procedures for HELB barrier impairments. |
