Title | |
Description | The inspectors identified a finding (FIN) for Dominions failure to complete an adequate and timely operability determination as required by OP-AA-102, Operability Determination, to assess governor control oscillations following completion of maintenance on the turbine driven auxiliary feedwater (TDAFW) pump 3FWA*P2 on May 17, 2013. The inspectors determined that the failure to adequately evaluate pump operability was a performance deficiency that was within Dominions ability to foresee and correct. Dominion entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP) as CR528526 and repaired the TDAFW pump governor on August 12, 2013, prior to return to power following the reactor shutdown on August 9, 2013. The inspectors determined the performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Failure to adequately assess operability resulted in a decrease in the reliability of the auxiliary feedwater (AFW) system to mitigate events. In addition, the performance deficiency is similar to examples 1.a and 2.a of IMC 0612, Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the performance deficiency did not represent a loss of system safety function or a loss of safety function of a single train for greater than its Technical Specification allowed outage time. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance, in that Dominion uses conservative assumptions in decision making and adopts a requirement to demonstrate that the proposed action is safe in order to proceed rather than a requirement to demonstrate that it is unsafe in order to disapprove the action. |
