| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, states, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed and accomplished by documented instructions or procedures of a type appropriate to the circumstances. Contrary to this, on March 24, 2011, licensee personnel performed Procedure SP-33-297A, Safety Injection To Loop A Cold Leg Check Valve Leakage, which left the breaker for valve SI-11A, SI valve to loop A cold leg, in the incorrect position. The valve was required by TS Surveillance Requirement 3.5.2.1 to be open with the breaker in the off position and locked. Procedure SP-33-297A correctly established an open position for the valve, thereby providing the required SI system flow path, but failed to place the breaker in the off and locked position. The Shift Technical Advisor identified the incorrect breaker position during protected equipment rounds in the plant and also identified that the requirements of TS LCO 3.0.4, for entering a mode of applicability when an LCO is not met were not completed prior to entering Mode 3. The licensee later determined the breaker was in the incorrect position from 2:58 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on March 24, 2011, for a total of 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> and 32 minutes, which was also reported to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B) for any operation or condition which was prohibited by TSs (Section 4OA3.4 of this report). The inspectors answered No to the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone questions and screened the finding as having very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, Table 4a, dated January 10, 2008. The licensee documented this violation in CR419235. The licensee performed an ACE which determined Procedure SP-33-297A did not provide direction on the required breaker manipulations and implemented CAs that included revision of the procedure, and an extent-of-condition evaluation to correct other deficient procedures. |
