| Title | Secondary Containment Integrity Not Maintained Due to Door not Properly Dogged |
| Description | Green. The team identified a Green, non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 3.6.5.1, for failure to maintain secondary containment integrity. Specifically, while Hope Creek station was operating in mode 1, PSEG personnel did not ensure secondary containment door R-4302 was properly latched (dogged) closed in accordance with procedure CC-AA-201, Plant Barrier Control Program . The licensees failure to ensure the door was properly dogged closed was a performance deficiency and resulted in a degraded secondary containment barrier for approximately 44 hours5.092593e-4 days <br />0.0122 hours <br />7.275132e-5 weeks <br />1.6742e-5 months <br />. The team determined that PSEG operated in violation of the TS LCO which requires restoration of secondary containment integrity within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> or be in at least hot shutdown within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and in cold shutdown within the following 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. Following identification of the door condition by the team PSEG personnel properly dogged the door closed restoring secondary containment. This finding was determined to be of more than minor significance because it is associated with the configuration control attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, in its un-dogged position the door would not have remained closed, as required to maintain secondary containment integrity, during all design basis accidents. Using IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power , Exhibit 3, Barrier Integrity Screening Questions, the team determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of primary reactor containment (valves, airlocks , etc.), containment isolation system (logic and instrumentation), and heat removal components. The finding was determined to be associated with the cross-cutting area of Human Performance - Procedure Adherence (H.8), in that, licensee personnel did not follow process, procedures, and work instructions which required the secondary containment door to be closed and dogged. |
