| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, requires, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions or procedures, and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions or procedures. On January 6, 2010, with the onset of unusually cold weather (consecutive nights of temperatures in the low 40s), the licensee identified that safety-related procedure ADM-04.03, Cold Weather Preparations, had not been completed when it was discovered that the 2A1 EDG immersion heater power circuitry was not able to achieve the necessary current readings as called out in ADM-04.03. This resulted in Operations having to run the diesel several times over the course of a few days to ensure the lube oil temperatures remained above procedural limits, thus ensuring EDG operability. The finding was more than minor because it is similar to Example 2.f, of IMC 0612, Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, in that the failure to implement the cold weather procedure resulted in the immersion heaters inability to maintain lube oil temperatures above 85oF going undetected until the procedure was completed. The finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the 2A EDG was capable of starting and performing its safety-related function. This issue was documented in the licensees CAP as CR 2010-286 |
