| Title | Duties of the Shift Engineer During OFF-NORMAL Fire Events |
| Description | An NRC identified non-cited violation of V.C. Summer Technical Specification 6.8.1.e., Procedures and Programs Emergency Plan, was identified related to the emergency plan procedural duties of the Shift Engineer (SE)/Shift Technical Advisor (STA) during off-normal events. Specifically, fire emergency procedures (FEPs) 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 assigned actions that would be performed by the SE during fire events which conflicted with the V.C. Summer Emergency Plan Procedure EP-100 requirement that the SE perform the duties of the STA of assessing and advising the Shift Supervisor during off-normal events. The licensee entered this issue in their corrective action program as Condition Report 12-02035 and implemented fire watch compensatory measures in the fire areas/fire zones where the FEPs assigned actions to be performed by the SE that were outside the main control room. The licensees failure to comply with Technical Specification 6.8.1.e. was a performance deficiency. The finding was more than minor because it negatively impacted the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) Readiness Attribute of the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone objective to ensure that the licensee is capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process (Section 5.2, Table 5.2.1), because there were no actual instances of entry into the FEPs in which shortages of the emergency plan minimum staffing occurred. The inspectors determined that there was no cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because the licensees decision to use the SE/STA to perform safe shutdown actions occurred before the 1985 revision of the Fire Protection Evaluation Report (FPER) and was not reflective of current licensee performance. |
