| Title | Failure to Provide Adequate Emergency Lighting |
| Description | The team identified a Green non-cited violation of License Condition 2.C.(41), Fire Protection Program, for the failure to provide adequate 8-hour emergency lights. Specifically, the licensee failed to provide adequate lighting at all locations operators perform actions within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> during an alternative shutdown outside of the control room. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2014-03508 and confirmed operators are required to carry flashlights. The failure to provide adequate 8-hour emergency lights for safe shutdown outside of the control room was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the protection against external events (fire) attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and it adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences because it affected the ability to reach and maintain safe shutdown conditions in case of a fire. The team evaluated this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, dated September 20, 2013. The team assigned the finding a low degradation rating because the failure to provide adequate 8-hour emergency lights at all locations would not prevent reaching and maintaining safe shutdown conditions in the event of a control room fire. Specifically, the team determined that operators performing the alternative shutdown are required to carry flashlights. Because this finding had a low degradation rating, it screened as having very low safety significance (Green). The team reviewed Inspection Manual Chapter 0310 and assigned a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance for failure to ensure equipment was available and adequate to support nuclear safety. Specifically, the Licensee added steps to operate breakers in an electrical panel in 2005 and 2012. On both occasions the Licensee failed to provide adequate emergency lighting at that location as required by the fire protection program [H.1]. |
