| Title | Failure to Promptly Correct a Condition Adverse to Quality |
| Description | The team identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for the failure to implement required actions to ensure that conditions were promptly corrected. Specifically, on February 10, 2009, during a review of corrective action documents, the inspectors noted that corrective actions for condition report CR-RBS-2007-03034 were inadequate to correct a condition in which an instrument was not treated as measuring and test equipment. The team noted that corrective action was proposed, but not implemented, and the condition report was closed. The condition which prompted the condition report still existed at the time of the inspection. The licensee entered this issue into corrective action program as condition report CR-RBS-2009-00747. The failure to implement timely corrective action is a performance deficiency. The finding is greater than minor because if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern, such as an improperly calibrated main steam line monitor. The performance deficiency affected the barrier integrity cornerstone in that the proper calibration of the main steam line monitors is necessary to ensure proper isolation of containment in the event of fuel damage. Using Phase 1 worksheet from Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process, this finding was determined to have very low safety significance because it did not represent a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the control room, auxiliary building, spent fuel pool, or standby gas treatment system; did not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of the reactor containment and heat removal components, and did not involve an actual reduction in function of hydrogen ignitors in the reactor containment. This finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the decision making component because the licensee did not use conservative assumptions to demonstrate that the decision to close the condition report with no further action was appropriate (H1.b).
