| Title | Failure to Survey for Radiological Conditions |
| Description | A self-revealing, non-cited violation of 10 CFR 20.1501(a) was identified for the failure to perform radiological surveys in Unit 1 containment to ensure that the potential radiological hazards and extent of radiation levels were evaluated which resulted in the failure to barricade and conspicuously post a high radiation area (HRA). The licensee took immediate corrective action following discovery and posted the area as an HRA. The issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as CR 10057483. The licensees failure to perform radiological surveys to ensure the potential radiological hazards and the extent of radiation levels were understood and controlled was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it impacted the program and process attribute of the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective. Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately evaluate potential radiological hazards that could be present in a work area and operators were unnecessarily exposed to HRA conditions. The finding was assessed and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not an ALARA planning issue, there was no overexposure nor substantial potential for an overexposure, and the licensees ability to assess dose was not compromised. The inspectors determined that this issue had a cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance, Work Management (H.5) because the licensee failed to recognize potential changes in expected radiological conditions and radiation protection supervisors did not oversee work activities by observing and reinforcing standards and expectations to perform radiological surveys of all possible affected areas following a reactor coolant system drain down evolution. |
