| Title | Failure to Ensure That Design Requirements Associated with the Containment Electrical Penetration Assemblies Were Correctly Translated Into Installed Plant Equipment |
| Description | The team identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, associated with the licensees failure to translate applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis into specifications, drawings, procedures, and instructions. Specifically, from initial construction to present, the licensee did not perform adequate analysis and/or post-accident condition functional testing of the teflon insulated and teflon sealed Conax electrical penetration assemblies to determine if they were suitable for expected post accident conditions. The licensee has decided to replace or cap all Teflon-insulated containment electrical penetration assemblies prior to returning to power operations. This issue has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR 2013-03571. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it is associated with the design control attribute of the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone and affected the associated cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers (fuel cladding, reactor coolant system, and containment) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, the finding is determined to have very low safety significance (Green) because it did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of reactor containment, containment isolation system, and heat removal components. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because the licensee failed to implement a corrective action program with a low threshold for identifying issues and identify such issues completely, accurately, and in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance |
