| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Title 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, states in part that measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality such as failures or malfunctions are promptly identified and corrected. Contrary to the above, in April 2008, the licensee identified that the nuclear source and intermediate range detector cable for channels N31 and N35 exhibited a leak during pressure testing to ensure the integrity of the cable. At that time, without further investigation, the leak was attributed to a bad connector interface without any further action. On April 15, 2012, the same pressure testing was performed and identified the same leakrate; however, additional evaluation was performed that determined the leak was not from the connector but from the cable itself (this issue is discussed further in Section 4OA3.1 of this report). Therefore, the licensee determined that in 2008 they failed to promptly correct this condition adverse to quality. The inspectors determined the finding could be evaluated using the SDP in accordance with IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power Exhibit 1, Initiating Events Screening Questions. The inspectors answered no to all the screening questions and determined the finding screened as very low significance (Green). The licensee documented this violation in CR470789 and conducted a causal evaluation. |
