Title | Failure to Adequately Perform the New Fuel Oil Surveillance Requirement |
Description | The inspectors identified a Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Technical Specification (TS) 6.8.1.a, Procedures and Programs, for the licensees failure to have an adequate surveillance test to implement the requirements of SR 4.8.1.1.2.c, as required by Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.33, Quality Assurance Program Requirements, Appendix A, Section 8.b. Specifically, licensee procedure RST-209, Technical Specification Surveillance of New Diesel Fuel Oil (DFO), did not adequately ensure a representative sample of the DFO to confirm the required properties prior to addition to the B diesel fuel oil storage tank (DFOST). This created the potential for DFO of an unacceptable quality to be introduced to the B emergency diesel generator (EDG) on December 4, and 6, 2013. The licensee took corrective action by testing the fuel oil in the A and B DFOSTs and EDG day tanks to verify that the DFO met the required properties as outlined in TS. Additionally, the licensee planned to revise RST-209 and established interim actions to prevent adding new fuel oil prior to obtaining a representative sample. The inspectors determined that the failure to have an adequate surveillance test to implement the requirements of SR 4.8.1.1.2.c. on December 4, and 6, 2013 was a performance deficiency. Specifically, this created the potential for fuel oil of an unacceptable quality to be introduced to the B EDG. This finding was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency had the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern in that it could have affected operability of the EDGs. Using IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Appendix A, Exhibit 2 Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, the inspectors determined this finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding is not a deficiency affecting the design or qualification and does not represent an actual loss of system and/or function. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Resources, as described in the Human Performance crosscutting area because the licensee failed to ensure that personnel, equipment, procedures, and other resources are available and adequate to support nuclear safety. Specifically, procedure RST-209 Revision 23 inappropriately permitted the use of data from a sample that was 20 months old to meet SR 4.8.1.1.2.c. |
