Finding

Title

Falsified Fire Watch Records

Description

Severity Level IV. The NRC identified a Severity Level IV violation of 10 CFR 50.9 Completeness and Accuracy of Information, for the failure to maintain continuous compensatory fire watch information that was complete and accurate in all material respects. The licensees actions of creating falsified fire watch completion records for the 713 elevation of the Auxiliary Building was a performance deficiency. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program as CR 1019953 and took remedial action against the involved individuals commensurate with the circumstances. The NRC evaluated this issue under the traditional enforcement process because it involved willfulness. In consideration of the fact that the individuals were contract fire watch personnel with minimal supervisory responsibilities, and that the underlying safety significance of the missed fire watch was low, the NRC concluded that this violation should be characterized at Severity Level IV in accordance with Section 2.2.1.d of the Enforcement Policy. Furthermore, because this violation involved willfulness and lack of supervisory oversight, the non-cited violation criteria of paragraph 2.3.2.a.4.(c) was not satisfied, such that this violation will be cited. This violation was evaluated under the traditional enforcement process and thus does not have a cross cutting aspect.
