Title | Failure to Comply with Technical Specification 3.3.2 to Have Two Trains of Automatic Actuation Logic and Actuation Relays for Safety Injection and Feedwater Isolation Operable |
Description | A Green, self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 3.3.2 was identified for failure to have two trains of safety injection (SI) automatic actuation logic and two trains of feedwater isolation actuation logic operable while in Mode 3. Upon the removal of temporary jumpers, the relay which blocks the actuation circuitry from performing their function was not reset. This condition existed until approximately 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> later when the licensee reset the relay by closing the reactor trip breakers. The licensee entered this event into their corrective action program as Problem Evaluation Report 140641. This finding is more than minor because it affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events and adversely affected the cornerstones equipment performance attribute for availability and reliability. A Phase 2 evaluation in accordance with IMC 609, Significance Determination Process, determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because of the low decay heat at the end of a refueling outage; the time for operators to take recovery actions; and due to the plant conditions, only the containment high pressure SI actuation portion of the automatic SI actuation logic was affected. The cause of the finding was directly related to the documentation, procedures and component labeling cross-cutting aspect in the resources component of the Human Performance cross-cutting area, in that, the instructions used by personnel to remove the temporary jumpers failed to provide necessary steps to ensure the actuation logics were returned to an operable status (H.2(c)).
