| Title | Repeat Failure to Follow Procedure for Initiating Condition Reports |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures and Drawings, regarding the licensees failure to follow the requirements of Administrative Procedure 0.5.CR, Condition Report Initiation, Review and Classification to enter conditions adverse to quality into the corrective action program. Specifically, between January 12, 2011, and February 24, 2011, the inspectors identified multiple instances where licensee personnel were aware of conditions adverse to quality, but failed to appropriately enter them into the corrective action program until being prompted by the inspectors. The licensee entered this issue in their corrective action program as CR-CNS-2011-1239. The performance deficiency associated with this finding involved the licensees failure to initiate condition reports as required by Administrative Procedure 0.5.CR, Condition Report Initiation, Review and Classification. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone, and directly affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Although the examples mentioned above may be minor violations, the inspectors used Section 2.10.F of the NRC Enforcement Manual to determine that the performance deficiency was more than minor and is therefore a finding because the NRC has indication that the minor violation had occurred repeatedly. Using the Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the inspectors determined that the finding has very low safety significance because all of the items in the Table 4a Mitigating Systems Cornerstone checklist were answered in the negative. The finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component, in that the licensee takes appropriate corrective actions to address safety issues and adverse trends in a timely manner. Specifically, the licensee failed to take appropriate corrective actions to address previously identified examples of employees not initiating condition reports in response to conditions adverse to quality P.1(d) (Section 4AO2). |
