| Title | Repeat Failure to Assess and Manage the Risk of Heavy Equipment Operations (Section 1R13) |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65.a(4) for the licensees failure to assess and manage the risk of planned maintenance activities. Specifically, the licensee failed to include planned heavy equipment operations in the vicinity of the 345 kV transmission lines from the main power transformers in their risk assessment on January 29, 2009. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-CNS-2009-00734. The finding was more than minor because licensees risk assessment failed to consider maintenance activities that could increase the likelihood of initiating events. The inspectors determined that Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix K, Maintenance Risk Assessment and Risk Management Significance Determination Process, could not be used due to the inability to quantify the increase in risk associated with the heavy equipment activity. The inspectors utilized Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix M, Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria, to determine that the finding was of very low safety significance because the both qualified sources of offsite power were unaffected by this performance deficiency and provided sufficient remaining defense in depth in the event of a unit trip. The cause of this finding was related to the problem identification and resolution crosscutting component of corrective action program because the immediate corrective actions for a similar occurrence on November 26, 2008 were not effective in addressing the safety issue in a timely manner P.1(d) (Section 1R13) |
