| Title | Failure to Submit a Licensee Event Report for a Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications Associated with the B Emergency Service Water Discharge Valve |
| Description | The inspectors identified a Severity Level IV, non-cited violation (NCV) of 10CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B) due to the licensees failure to recognize that the inability of the B Emergency Service Water (ESW) Discharge Valve (1SW-271) to open on the start of B ESW pump caused a reportable condition. Consequently, the licensee failed to submit a licensee event report (LER) within 60 days as required by 10 CFR50.73. The licensee entered this issue into the corrective action program (CAP) as Action Request (AR) #361821 and AR #358062. The licensee took corrective action by reporting this event in LER 05000400/2010-001, Clearance Error Results in Equipment Becoming Inoperable. The licensees failure to recognize that the inability of 1SW-271 to open caused a reportable condition and submit an LER as required by 10 CFR 50.73 was a performance deficiency. This issue was dispositioned as traditional enforcement, instead of the Significance Determination Process, because it had the potential for impacting the NRCs ability to perform its regulatory function. However, because this violation was of very low safety significance, was not repetitive or willful, and was entered into the licensees CAP as AR #361821 and AR #358062, the NRC has characterized the significance of this violation as a Severity Level IV NCV in accordance with section IV.A.3 and supplement I of the NRC Enforcement Policy. The cause of this event was directly related to the cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution within the CAP component because the licensee did not adequately evaluate the need to submit an LER per the requirements of 10 CFR 50.73. |
