Title | Failure to Identify a Condition Adverse to Quality |
Description | An NRC-identified NCV of 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, was documented for the licensees failure to adequately identify a condition adverse to quality associated with the installation of 480 volt breaker 0-BKR-548-0021-S with non-conforming parts which was in service in safety-related 480 volt shutdown board 1B1. Immediate corrective action was to replace the non-conforming breaker. The inspectors determined that the licensees failure to adequately identify a condition adverse to quality associated with the installation of non-conforming parts as required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion XVI, was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it adversely affected the objective of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failure to identify the condition adverse to quality led to an additional six months that this non-conforming condition existed thus reducing the licensees ability to ensure the reliability and capability of plant safety systems. Using the screening worksheet of IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2 Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the deficiency only affected the qualification of the breaker. The cause of the finding was directly related to the aspect of identification in the Problem Identification and Resolution cross-cutting area because the licensee did not identify this issue completely, accurately, and in a timely manner in accordance with the program. |
