| Title | Failure to Properly Pre - Plan and Perform Maintenance on the Control Building Chilled Water System |
| Description | Green . The inspectors identified a non- cited violation of Technical Specification 5.4, Procedures, for the licensees failure to properly pre-plan and perform maintenance on safety -related components in accordance with documented instructions appropriate to the circumstances. Specifically, the licensee used work order instructions that did not contain sufficient detail for the reassembly of SWP -PVY32C, a safety -related valve in the control building ventilation system . As a result, SWP -PVY32C developed a refrigerant leak, and on November 17, 2015 , the valve failed. This in turn caused the control building ventilation system to fail , and the high pressure core spray system was consequently declared inoperable. The licensee entered this condition into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR- RBS -2017- 02364. Corrective actions included incorporating the torque values into the model work order instructions for future maintenance and reassembly . The failure to properly pre-plan and perform maintenance on safety -related components in accordance with documented instructions was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor , and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, when the control building ventilation system failed, it impact ed the operability of the high pressure core spray system. The inspectors screened the finding in accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process. Using NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At -Power, Exhibit 2 Mitigating Systems Screening Questions, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not affect the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system, or component (and the structure, system, or component maintained its operability), it did not represent a loss of safety function, it did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for greater than its technical specification outage time, and it did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety significant in accordance with the licensees Maintenance Rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This finding has a cross- cutting aspect in the area of human performance, challenge the unknown, because individuals did not stop when faced with uncertain conditions. Specifically, workers proceeded with assembling the valve when the torque values or torqueing sequence were not specified [H.11] |
