Title | Inadequate Post-Maintenance Test of Motor Replacements |
Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and associated NCV of Technical Specification (TS) 5.4.1, Procedures, which required, in part, that written procedures shall be implemented covering the applicable procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A. Specifically, Procedure GNP-08.02.12, Post-Maintenance Testing/Operations Retest, stated, in part, that the post-maintenance tests (PMTs) were performed upon completion of maintenance activities, and demonstrated that the identified deficiency was repaired, and that no new deficiency was created. On July 4, 2011, the licensee replaced the spent fuel pool (SFP) pump motor B, and failed to conduct an adequate PMT, which demonstrated no new deficiency was created. The PMT only tested the replaced motor and failed to include testing of the pump to ensure that no new deficiency was created. The licensee entered the issue into its corrective action program (CAP) as condition reports (CRs) 464645, 466183, and 466215, and planned to perform an apparent cause evaluation (ACE) and take corrective actions. The inspectors determined that the finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening, because, if left uncorrected, the failure to perform adequate PMT on motor replacements would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors determined that the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04, Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, Table 4a, for the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone, dated January 10, 2008. The inspectors answered No to the Reactor Coolant System or Fuel Barrier Questions related to Spent Fuel Pool Issues, and screened the finding as having very low safety significance (Green). The inspectors also determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance, resources, because the licensee did not ensure the PMT procedure guidance related to motor replacements was adequate and accurate to assure nuclear safety |
