Title | Failure to Perform an Evaluation for a Change to Component Cooling Water MAKE-UP |
Description | The team identified a Severity Level IV non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50.59, with an associated Green finding, because the licensee failed to perform an evaluation for a design change that may have required NRC review and approval. Specifically, from June 2008, the licensee did not evaluate a change that would permanently substitute manual actions for an automatic action to add water and nitrogen gas to the component cooling water surge tank, which is an updated safety analysis report described design function for the component cooling water system. The licensee entered this condition into their corrective action program and planned to perform an evaluation to determine if prior NRC review and approval is needed for this design change. This issue has been entered into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR 2013-04417. The team determined that it was reasonable for the licensee to be able to foresee and prevent the occurrence of this deficiency. The team evaluated this performance deficiency as both a traditional enforcement violation, and a reactor oversight process finding. The violation of 10 CFR Part 50.59 was more than minor because it involved a change to an updated safety analysis report design function in that there was a reasonable likelihood that the change would require NRC review and approval. This finding is associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. The team used the NRC Enforcement Manual and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings, to evaluate this issue. The finding is determined to have very low safety significance (Green) because it was a design deficiency confirmed not to result in the loss of operability or functionality. The violation of 10 CFR 50.59 impacted the ability of the NRC to perform its regulatory oversight function and was determined to be Severity Level IV because the resulting changes were evaluated by the significance determination process as having very low safety significance, in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy. The NRC concluded that the finding did not reflect current licensee performance |
