| Title | Failure to Implement Testing of the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling Instrument Lines With Appropriate Procedures (Section 1R22.b.3) |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, \\\"Procedures,\\\" while observing a periodic test associated with the reactor core isolation cooling (RCIC) system on February 14, 2008. The inspectors determined that the licensees procedure was inappropriate for the circumstances of the test. Specifically, the purpose of the test was to detect and quantify gas formation in RCIC system piping and the procedure did not provide an adequate method to determine whether acceptance criteria were met. The repeated performance of the test resulted in the unnecessary inoperability of the RCIC system. This finding was greater than minor because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events in order to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the performance of the test affected the capability of the RCIC system to respond to events. The finding was of very low safety significance because the time RCIC was inoperable was less than TS-allowed inoperability time. The primary cause of this finding was related to the cross-cutting area of Human Performance as defined by Inspection Manual Chapter 0305 H.2(c), because the licensee failed to provide complete and accurate procedures related to nuclear safety. As part of their immediate corrective action, the licensee revised the test procedure. (Section 1R22.b.3) Green The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and a non-cite |
