Finding

Title

Failure To Meet Fire Brigade Drill Training Requirements

Description

The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and associated non-cited violation (NCV) of License Condition 2.C(6) for failure to ensure that an individual met the fire drill participation requirements for fire brigade members and fire brigade leaders. Specifically, certified fire brigade members and fire brigade leaders are required to participate in at least two drills per year and in one case the licensee failed to conduct proper drills as required by the license condition. The issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report 2013-12964, and the licensee initiated immediate action to ensure that all current fire brigade members/leaders met drill participation requirements prior to fulfilling those roles. The inspectors determined that the failure to conduct proper drills was a performance deficiency and was more than minor in accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening, dated September 7, 2012, because the finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Factors for Fire and adversely affected the associated cornerstone objective of ensuring the reliability and capability of the fire brigade to respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Because the licensee failed to ensure that fire brigade members and fire brigade leaders met the licensees qualification requirements of participating in at least two fire drills per year, the mitigating systems cornerstone attribute to ensure the availability and reliability of the fire brigade to respond to initiating events was impacted. The finding was evaluated using IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process (SDP), Attachment 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, dated June 19, 2012. Because the finding involved the Fire Brigade, Table 3, SDP Appendix Router, Section E.1, Fire Protection, directed NRC staff to use IMC 0609, Appendix A, The SDP for Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012. Exhibit 2 of IMC 0609, the Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, Section D.1.a., Fire Brigade, was checked yes because the finding involved the Fire Brigade training and qualification requirements. The first condition under D.1.a., The fire brigade demonstrated the ability to meet the required times for fire extinguishment for drill scenarios, was applicable and the finding did not significantly affect the ability of the fire brigade to respond to a fire, so the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component, in that the licensee did not take corrective actions to address safety issues and adverse trends in a timely manner, commensurate with their safety significance and complexity. Specifically, the licensee failed to identify that all drill requirements for fire brigade personnel as required in Branch Technical Position APCSB 9.5-1, Appendix A, which requires specific factors that qualify a drill for training purposes, was not used to plan and execute drills for personnel re-qualifying for this watch position during 2012 and 2013.
