| Title | |
| Description | A non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, was identified involving the failure to correct a condition adverse to quality associated with classification of check valves in the auxiliary feedwater system. Specifically, the licensee failed to update the in-service testing program to classify auxiliary feedwater discharge check valves as Category A/C valves and include required seat leakage testing. The licensee entered this issue into its corrective action program as Condition Report 2014-08452 and initiated actions to re-assess the current in-service testing methodology of check valves in the auxiliary feedwater system. This performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone, and affected the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The NRC performed an initial screening of the finding in accordance with NRC Manual Chapter IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power. Using IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2, Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, dated July 1, 2012, this finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because: (1) the finding was not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating system; (2) the finding did not represent a loss of system and/or function; (3) the finding did not represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time; and (4) the finding does not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant in accordance with the licensees maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, the licensee failed to evaluate the function of discharge check valves FW-173 and FW-174 when developing the in-service testing program and addressing previous condition reports. |
