Title | |
Description | The inspectors identified a Green NCV of Millstone Unit 3 Technical Specification (TS) Surveillance Requirement 4.0.5 because Dominion did not implement the Inservice Testing (IST) Program in accordance with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Operation and Maintenance (OM) Code of Record, 2001 through 2003 incorporated addenda. On July 18, 2015, Dominion changed the reference values of the B control building air conditioning booster pump, 3SWP*P2B, prior to determining the cause of the condition which resulted in the pump performing in the Action Range (ISTB-6200(b)) in April 2015. This finding was more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening, dated September 7, 2012, as it represented a challenge to the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The reliability of 3SWP*P2B was challenged based upon Dominions change in the pumps reference values contrary to the ASME OM code of record for Millstone Unit 3 which could result in the degradation of the equipment remaining undetected. The finding screened to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the safety function of 3SWP*P2B was not lost based on analysis of design basis flow requirements. The inspectors determined the finding has a cross-cutting aspect in Problem Identification and Resolution, Evaluation, in that the organization failed to evaluate the issue to ensure that resolution addressed causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance. Specifically, Dominions analysis of the April 2015 pump failures was not thorough enough to understand a new potential failure mode (impeller movement) and how it may impact system performance. |
