Finding

Title

Inadequate Diesel Fuel Oil Temperature Protection

Description

The team identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) for the failure to ensure that diesel powered Diverse and Flexible Coping Strategies (FLEX) equipment would be reliable to mitigate postulated beyond-design basis external events during very low temperature conditions. Specifically, at temperatures below the site fuel cloud point (4 degrees Fahrenheit (F) to -7 degrees F), portable FLEX equipment, such as emergency diesel powered pumps, were susceptible to conditions in which their capability of starting and operating would be impacted due to fuel crystallizing or gelling and subsequent coating of fuel filter elements.
