Finding

Title

Failure to Maintain Design Control of the Standby Liquid Control System and Sumps Credited in the Internal Flooding Analysis

Description

The inspectors identified two examples of a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, associated with the licensees failure to: (1) assure that the applicable seismic design basis requirements associated with the standby liquid control system storage tank was correctly translated into the plant design to ensure that the standby liquid control system would remain operable following a seismic event and; (2) maintain design control of sumps credited in the stations internal flooding analysis. These issues were entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Reports CR-CNS-2012-01918 for the standby liquid storage tank and CR-CNS-2012-02414, CR-CNS-2012-02509, CR-CNS-2012-02510, CR-CNS-2012-02752, and CR-CNS-2012-02767 for the oil absorbent bags. The licensees failure to maintain design control of the standby liquid control system and sumps credited for the stations internal flooding analysis was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the design control attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone, and affected the associated cornerstone objective to ensure availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, and is therefore a finding. The inspectors evaluated the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings. The inspectors determined that the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding: (1) was not a design or qualification issue confirmed not to result in a loss of operability or functionality; (2) did not represent an actual loss of safety function of system or train; (3) did not result in the loss of one or more trains of nontechnical specification equipment; (4) did not screen as potentially risk significant due to seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. The finding was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action component because: (1) the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate concerns with seismic analysis of the standby liquid control system such that the resolution addresses causes an extent of conditions, as necessary, during the development of NEDC 12-015; and (2) the licensee had the opportunity in 2010 and early 2012 during reviews of the internal flooding analysis to identify that oil absorbent bags contained in the sumps credited in the internal flooding analysis did not contain an analysis and were an unapproved modification.
