| Title | Maintenance of a Standard Action Level Scheme for Main Steam Line Monitors |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) for the failure to follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements of planning standard 50.47(b)(4), which requires that a standard emergency classification and action level scheme is in use by the licensee. Specifically, several main steam line monitors were out of service for extended periods of time without apparent contingency actions in place in order to be able to declare an emergency. The licensee entered the finding into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-2014-005874. The failure to maintain a standard emergency classification and action level scheme for the initiating condition requiring the main steam line monitors was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the licensees ability to implement adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process, and Table 5.4-1, Significance Examples 50.47(b)(4), the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was a failure to comply with NRC requirements and was not a degraded risk significant planning standard function. The planning standard function was not degraded because of other emergency action levels; an appropriate declaration could be made in an accurate and timely manner. This finding has a problem identification and resolution cross-cutting aspect associated with evaluation because the licensee failed to thoroughly evaluate the extent of condition of the inoperable monitors on the emergency plan and scheme for declaring emergencies [P.2]. |
