| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | This violation of very low safety significant was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a Non-Cited Violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. Violation: Technical Specification LCO 3.4.4 (applicable for Modes 1, 2 and 3) states: The safety function of 12 safety relief valves (S/RVs) shall be OPERABLE, and Action Statement A states that One or more required S/RVs inoperableA.1 be in mode 3 in 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and A.2 be in Mode 4 in 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />. Technical Specification SR 3.4.4.1 states that Verify the safety function lift setpoints of the required S/RVs are as follows
Number of S/RVs Setpoint (psig 2 1205 36. 3 1195 35. 2 1185 35. 4 1175 35. 2 1150 34. Contrary to the above, during portions of previous Unit 1 and 2 operating cycles from 2012 through January of 2017, two main steam S/RVs did not meet these lift pressure setpoint requirements. Specifically S/RV 2B21F013C lifted at 1131 psig instead of from 1139.8 to 1210.2 psig and S/RV 2B21F013L lifted at 1130 psig instead of from 1159.2 to 1230.8 psig (reference: Licensee Event Report 05000374/201700400; 01, Two Main Safety Relief Valves Failed Inservice Lift Inspection Pressure Test. Significance/Severity: This licensee identified finding affected the Initiating Events Cornerstone and was screened in accordance with Exhibit 1 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At Power. The two affected SRVs lifted low outside of their setpoint band, which was conservative with respect to maintaining the reactor coolant system overpressure protection safety function of these valves. Therefore, the inspectors determined that this finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because after a reasonable assessment of degradation, the finding would not have resulted in exceeding the reactor coolant system leak rate for a small LOCA and did not affect other systems used to mitigate a loss-of-coolant accident.
