| Title | Minimum flowrates and time requirements for dynamic flushing were not established |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and associated Non-Cited Violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the failure to establish minimum flowrate and time required in procedures used to perform dynamic flushing activities affecting Emergency Core Cooling Systems, Decay Heat Removal, and Containment Spray Systems pumps. This finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program to revise the affected procedures. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because, if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the failure to establish an appropriate procedure for flushing would have the potential of not removing voids to ensure system operability. The finding screened as of very low safety significance (Green) because it was a design deficiency confirmed not to result in loss of operability. Specifically, a historical review of previous dynamic flushing activities determined that sufficient flowrates and time values were achieved at the appropriate sequences. The inspectors did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the finding was not confirmed to reflect current performance due to the age of the performance deficiency. |
