Title | Failure to Follow Corrective Action process for an Inadequate Postmaintenance Test |
Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the licensees failure to follow corrective action program procedures to address deficiencies associated with postmaintenance testing. Specifically, between April 20 and May 14, 2009, the licensee failed to follow Procedure SO123-XX 1 ISS2, Notification Initiation and Processing, Revision 23, to report a problem associated with the adequacy of postmaintenance testing until prompted by the inspectors. Emergency chiller ME336 was restored to operable on April 19, following a maintenance evolution, then declared inoperable on April 20, approximately 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> later when operations personnel identified an operability issue associated with the equipment configuration. However, licensee personnel failed to recognize that the postmaintenance testing may have been inadequate, in that, emergency chiller ME336 was returned to service in an inoperable condition, until prompted by the inspectors on several occasions between April 20 and May 13. This finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Nuclear Notification NN 200427700. The failure to follow corrective action program procedures to identify and correct a condition adverse to quality was a performance deficiency. The finding is greater than minor because the failure to identify and correct deficiencies associated with postmaintenance testing would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern if left uncorrected. The finding is associated with the mitigating systems cornerstone. Using the Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process, Phase 1 Worksheets, the finding is determined to have very low safety significance because the finding did not affect both trains of any single mitigating system or represent an actual loss of a safety function of a single train for greater that its technical specification allowed outage time. The finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with corrective action program because the licensee failed to identify and correct deficiencies associated with inadequate postmaintenance testing at a threshold commensurate with the safety significance P.1(a)(Section 1R19) |
