Title | Corrective Action to Prevent Recurrence Ineffective to Preclude Repetition of a Significant Condition Adverse to Quality |
Description | A self-revealing Green NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, was identified when the corrective action to prevent recurrence of a significant condition adverse to quality did not preclude repetition of the event. Specifically, Dominion generated a corrective action to prevent recurrence during a root cause evaluation (RCE) for a reactor power transient that occurred in February 2011 and a similar event occurred in November 2011, which was determined to be a repeat of the February 2011 event. Dominion entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP) as condition report (CR) 488587. This finding was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it has the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors determined that this finding was associated with the Mitigating System Cornerstone and was reactivity control systems degradation related to reactivity management due to command and control issues identified in Dominions RCEs for both the February and November 2011 events. Additional screening through the SDP directed the inspectors to Appendix M Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria. Based upon the results of this evaluation and taking into account mitigating factors associated with additional corrective actions taken following the November 2011 event, and Dominions acceptable performance during the November 2011 through September 2012 time period, the NRC has concluded that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the Problem Identification and Resolution cross-cutting area, Corrective Action Program component, because Dominion did not take appropriate corrective actions to address significant conditions adverse to quality and preclude their repetition. |
