| Title | Not Following Plant Documents for Switchyard Modifications |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance for the licensees failure to follow the augmented quality program (AQP), nuclear plant operating agreement (NPOA), and Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) for plant modifications installed in the 345-kilovolt (kV) and 120-kV switchyards by the International Transmission Company (ITC) around September 2011. Specifically, the ITC liaison did notify his counterpart at Fermi of the planned installation of new equipment in the switchyards, but no condition assessment resolution document (CARD) was issued or other communication made to Fermi 2 plant support engineering to conduct the required evaluation of proposed design modifications. In addition, no 10 CFR 50.59 review was performed of proposed changes to a modification. The finding was determined to be more than minor because the inspectors did not see a similar example in IMC-0612, Appendix E, Examples of minor issues. Further, because the licensee (nor ITC) had performed any design evaluation to assure the proposed activity would not have an adverse impact on the plant, the inspectors concluded that if left uncorrected this failure to perform a systematic design process in accordance with the AQP, NPOA, and UFSAR could lead to more significant safety concerns. Therefore, the issue screened as being more than minor. The inspectors evaluated the significance of the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at-Power, Exhibit 1 Initiating Events Screening Questions, and answered no to the Transient Initiators question, Does the finding contribute to both the likelihood of a reactor trip AND the likelihood that mitigation equipment or functions will not be available? Therefore, the issue screened as having very low safety significance (Green). The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance, work control, because the licensee did not properly coordinate with ITC on the switchyard work to ensure the requirements of the AQP, NPOA, and UFSAR were met. |
