| Title | C02 Detection Instrumentation Unavailable For Emergency Event Classification |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and associated NCV of 10 CFR 50.54(q) Emergency Plans, for failing to follow and maintain an emergency plan that met the requirements of emergency planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4). Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain onsite atmospheric monitoring equipment capable of measuring carbon dioxide concentrations Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH). The IDLH concentrations within specified plant areas are utilized to classify emergency conditions per the KPS Emergency Plan. The licensee entered this performance deficiency into their CAP as CR481430. The inspectors determined that the issue was a performance deficiency as it was within the licensees ability to foresee and correct. This finding was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the ERO performance attribute of the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone, and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring that the licensee is capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. This finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process, using Figure 5.4-1, Significance. Determination for Ineffective EALs and Overclassification , and resulted in a Green finding as an Alert event would not have been declared. A cross-cutting aspect was identified in the area of human performance, decision-making. The licensees risk-significant decision concerning this EAL-related equipment change did not use a systematic process to ensure that safety was maintained. A lack of formally defined authority and roles for decisions and communications precluded the appropriate interdisciplinary input and review of this equipment change. |
