Title | Licensee Procedures Failed to Contain Adequate Controls to Prevent Materials Stored on the Refuel Floor from Becoming Missiles During a Tornado Strike |
Description | A finding of very low safety significance and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, was identified by the inspectors for the failure to maintain adequate procedures. Licensee procedures failed to contain adequate controls to prevent materials stored on the refuel floor from becoming missiles during a tornado strike that could damage spent fuel assemblies. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program, removed all non-essential items from the refuel floor, properly restrained other items, and developed requirements for storing materials on the refuel floor. The finding was more than minor because the finding could be reasonably viewed as a precursor to a significant event. Specifically, the failure to properly restrain heavy objects on the refuel floor posed a credible missile hazard to the spent fuel during a tornado strike on the reactor building. The finding was of very low safety significance after management review because the limiting consequence from fuel damage was associated with the regulatory limits for the radiological dose to control room staff. The inspectors did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding |
