Title | Inadequate Acceptance Criteria in Maintenance and Surveillance Procedures (5 Examples) |
Description | The team identified five examples of a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensees failure to correctly translate vendor specifications and design calculations into maintenance and surveillance procedures. The five examples were entered into the licensees corrective action program. The inspectors determined that the failure to correctly translate vendor specifications and design calculations into maintenance and surveillance procedures was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the mitigating systems cornerstone attribute of design control, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. In addition, the finding is similar to Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix E (example 4.a), because the failure to ensure correct translation of acceptance criteria into procedures was not isolated. The team performed a phase one significance determination process screening and determined the finding to have very low safety significance (green) utilizing the mitigating systems cornerstone column of IMC 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1-Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings. This finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the resources component of the human performance area, because the licensee had not ensured that complete, accurate, and up-to-date procedures were consistent with vendor and design specifications; and therefore, the procedures were not available and adequate to assure nuclear safety |
