| Title | Risk Assessment Performed Using Risk Assessment Tools with Known Errors |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65(a)(4) involving the failure of work control and operations personnel to assess and manage the increase in risk associated with planned maintenance activities. Specifically, the risk assessment for planned maintenance on emergency chiller ME336 was performed using risk assessment tools that had known errors that had the potential to change the outcome of the assessment. This finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Nuclear Notification 200389219. This finding is greater than minor because the risk assessment had known errors that had the potential to change the outcome of the assessment. This finding is associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix K, Maintenance Risk Assessment and Risk Management Significance Determination Process, step 4.1.1, the inspectors had the licensee reperform the assessment, correcting the errors that rendered the original risk assessment inadequate. The finding is determined to have very low safety significance because the incremental core damage probability deficit and the incremental large early release probability deficit, used to evaluate the magnitude of the error in the licensees inadequate risk assessment, were less than 1E-6 and 1E-7, respectively. The finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program because engineering personnel failed to take appropriate corrective actions to address identified errors in the risk assessment tools in a timely manner P.1(d) (Section 1R13) |
