Title | Failure to Isolate Control Circuits for Safe Shutdown Equipment From the Effects of a Control Room Fire |
Description | Green. The team identified a Green non-cited violation of License Condition 2.C.(41) for the failure to implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the approved fire protection program. Specifically, the licensee failed to adequately isolate control circuits for safe shutdown equipment to ensure independence from the effects of a fire in the control room. The licensee entered this finding into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2017-04028. As an immediate compensatory measure, the licensee issued Standing Order 17-0010 to provide operators additional guidance. The failure to adequately isolate control circuits for safe shutdown equipment from the effects of a control room fire 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. Specifically, the spurious actuation of safety relief valves would adversely affect the safe shutdown 4 equipment relied upon to achieve and maintain safe shutdown conditions. The team evaluated this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix F, Fire Protection Significance Determination Process, dated September 20, 2013, because it affected the ability to reach and maintain safe shutdown conditions in case of a fire. A senior reactor analyst performed a Phase 3 evaluation to determine the risk significance of this finding since it involved a postulated control room fire that led to control room evacuation. The senior reactor analyst determined this finding was of very low safety significance. The finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect since it was not indicative of present performance in that the performance deficiency occurred more than 3 years ago |
