| Title | Failure to Write Nuclear Notifications for Degraded or Nonconforming Conditions |
| Description | The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the failure of the licensee to implement procedures associated with entry of degraded or nonconforming issues into the corrective action program. Specifically, the NRC staff identified seven examples of problems that were not documented in a nuclear notification until prompted by NRC many days or years after they were known to the licensee between June 2009 and January 2013. This issue has been entered into licensees corrective action program as Nuclear Notification NN 202364842. The inspectors determined that the failure of licensee personnel to write nuclear notifications in accordance with Procedure SO123-XV-50.CAP-1 was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute for equipment performance and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The inspectors determined that Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix G, Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process, was appropriate based on the plant conditions present when most of the examples of this performance deficiency occurred. The finding did not require a quantitative assessment because adequate mitigating equipment remained available and the finding did not constitute a loss of control, as defined in Appendix G. Therefore, the finding screened as having very low safety significance (Green). This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of the problem identification and resolution corrective action program component, because the licensee failed to implement a corrective action program with a low threshold for identifying issues |
