| Title | Failure to Follow Procedure When Exiting the RCA |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 6.4.1 which resulted from workers failing to follow procedural requirements. On March 25, 2008, two workers entered the radiologically controlled area, dressed in protective clothing, then exited through a door marked No Exit. There was a previous, similar occurrence on March 23, 2008. The licensee counseled the workers and documented the occurrences in the corrective action program as CR ANO-2-2008-00789. The finding is greater than minor because it was associated with an Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone attribute (exposure control) and it affected the associated cornerstone objective because the failure to use the personnel contamination monitors could result in increased personnel dose and the release of radioactive material. Using the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the inspectors determined the finding had very low significance because: (1) it was not an ALARA finding, (2) there was no overexposure, (3) there was no substantial potential for an overexposure, and (4) the ability to assess dose was not compromised. Additionally, the finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, Work Practice Component, because the workers did not use self- or peer-checking as a human error prevention technique H.4(a) |
