| Title | Failure to Ensure that a Train of Source Range Detection was Available to Monitor Neutron Population During a Fire Event |
| Description | The NRC identified a Green NCV of Operating License Condition 2.F for the licensees failure to ensure that a train of source range detection was available to monitor neutron population during the initial stages of a fire event on Unit 1. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as CR 1098240. The licensees failure to ensure a train of source range detection was free from fire damage was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the protection against external events (fire) attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and it adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the licensee failed to maintain the capability to monitor neutron population during the early stage of a fire event. In accordance with IMC 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the reactor would have been able to reach and maintain a stable plant condition. No cross-cutting aspect was identified for this issue. |
