| Title | Failure to Develop Preventive Maintenance Schedule for Safety-Related 480V Starter Coils |
| Description | The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, for the licensees failure to implement preventive maintenance schedules for safety-related 480V starter coils. On June 16, 2012, fuel pool cooling pump FPC-P-1A unexpectedly stopped. Subsequent review determined that the loss of fuel pool cooling pump FPC-P-1A was due to no existing preventive maintenance requirement to replace safety-related critical starter coils that are either continuously energized or have a high duty cycle. As corrective action, the licensee implemented a preventive maintenance task to replace high duty cycle starter coils every 15 years and low duty cycle starter coils every 25 years. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Action Request 265422. The finding was more than minor because it affected the structures, systems, and components performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers (fuel cladding, reactor coolant system, and containment) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, the inspectors determined this finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not adversely affect decay heat removal capabilities from the spent fuel pool causing the pool temperature to exceed the maximum analyzed temperature limit specified in the site-specific licensing basis. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the operating experience component because the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate and implement changes to the preventive maintenance schedule for 480V switchgear in response to industry operating experience. |
