| Title | Failure to Implement Scaffolding Procedure Requirement |
| Description | The inspectors identified an NCV of very low safety significance of Technical Specification 5.4.1 Procedures, because Entergy personnel did not adequately implement procedure requirements in accordance with EN-MA-133, Control of Scaffolding. Specifically, personnel did not erect scaffold in accordance with procedure EN-MA-133 and maintain the minimum distance erection requirements for safety-related equipment or alternatively perform engineering evaluations that concluded the equipment will not be impacted by the scaffolds. Entergy entered this issue into their CAP for resolution as CR-PNP-2009-00064, implemented prompt actions to correct the scaffolds, and performed engineering evaluations to assess the affect of the scaffolds on the safety-related equipment. The finding is more than minor because it is associated with the external factors attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affects the cornerstone objective to ensure the reliability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage). Additionally, the finding is similar to example 4.a in Appendix E of IMC 0612 in that personnel did not routinely perform engineering evaluations for scaffolds constructed less than the minimum allowed distance to safety-related equipment. The inspectors determined that the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the scaffold issues identified were not a design or qualification deficiency, did not represent a loss of safety function, and did not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance because Entergys supervisory and management staff did not provide adequate oversight of workers or communicate expectations to workers to ensure scaffold erection requirements were fully understood (H.4.c of IMC 305) |
