Title | Failure to Follow Procedure for Addressing Significant Conditions Adverse to Quality |
Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for two examples of a failure to follow procedure for evaluating and correcting significant conditions adverse to quality. The licensee reduced the screening level of two significant conditions adverse to quality and therefore, failed to perform a root cause evaluation and identify corrective actions to preclude repetition. The licensee entered the finding into the corrective action program as Condition Reports CR-2015-002021 and CR-2015-003442. The licensees failure to follow the requirements of Procedure STA-422, Processing Condition Reports, was a performance deficiency. Specifically, the licensee failed to appropriately screen condition reports, perform root cause analyses, and identify corrective actions to preclude repetition for two significant conditions adverse to quality. The performance deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it could lead to a more significant safety issue. Specifically, for significant conditions to adverse to quality, the failure to use the appropriate screening criteria for condition report levels could result in failing to determine the cause and take corrective actions to preclude repetition. Because these failures were associated with unplanned reactor trips, this finding affected the Initiating Events cornerstone. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, Exhibit 1, Initiating Events Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not cause a reactor trip and a loss of mitigation equipment. The finding has a human performance cross-cutting aspect associated with consistent processes because the licensee failed to use a consistent, systematic approach to make decisions to downgrade condition reports [H.13]. |
