| Title | Inadequate Corrective Actions to Address Configuration Control of Previous Non-Cited Violation |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of very low safety significance of 10 CFR Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for failure to implement adequate corrective actions for a previous NRC-identified non-cited violation. The previous finding involved a failure to maintain configuration control of various systems in the plant. In response to the previous finding, the licensee performed an apparent cause evaluation and developed actions to address the causes and extent of condition. However, the inspector identified that the actions pertaining to the extent of condition were not properly implemented and, as a result, the deficiency identified by the inspector was not fully resolved. The licensee failed to identify brass compression fittings installed on drain tailpieces of the standby service water system instead of stainless steel fittings as required by design documents. Furthermore, the licensee failed to update applicable design drawings allowing sacrificial compression fittings to be installed. The licensee performed corrective actions to restore configuration control. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Reports CR-GGN-2012-04003, CR-GGN-2012-4180, and CR-GGN-2012-04233. The issue is more than minor because, if left uncorrected, it could become a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the issues identified by the inspector impacted the licensees ability to establish and maintain configuration control for equipment relied on for safe operation of the plant. The design control attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and the cornerstones objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences were affected. Until the issues are fully resolved, the licensee continues to be vulnerable to gaps in their system configuration control. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) using Attachment 4 to IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, because it did not result in an actual loss of safety function. The inspectors also determined that the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the resources component because the licensee did not provide adequate training of personnel so that the inappropriately installed fittings could be identified during system walkdowns. |
