| Title | Failure to Follow Radiation Work Permit Instructions |
| Description | NRC inspectors reviewed a self-revealing, noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1 for failure to follow radiation work permit instructions. Specifically, a team technician made an unauthorized entry into a posted high radiation area on a radiation work permit that did not grant access to that area. The licensee conducted a review of this event and issued a site-wide memorandum on procedural and management expectations associated with high radiation areas. The licensee entered the finding into the corrective action program as Condition Report CR-RBS-2009-03953. The failure to follow the instructions on a radiation work permit is a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it affected the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone. It is associated with the exposure control attribute in that a worker not following radiation work permit instructions does not ensure adequate protection of the workers health and safety from additional/unintended personal exposure. Using the Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because it did not involve: (1) ALARA planning and controls, (2) an overexposure, (3) a substantial potential for overexposure, or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose. Furthermore, the finding had an associated human performance crosscutting aspect in the work practices component because the worker did not use human error prevention techniques, such as self-checking H.4(a)(Section 2RS04). |
