| Title | Programmatic Failure to Complete Operability and Functionality Determinations |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding and an associated non-citied violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures and Drawings, for the failure to accomplish station procedure OP-AA-108-115, Operability Determinations Revision 14. Specifically, on multiple occasions operations personnel failed to complete or documented incomplete operability determinations or functionality evaluations used to determine the operability or functionality of safety-related or important to safety equipment used at the site. The licensee documented this issue in the CAP as IR 01693256. Interim corrective actions included additional review by senior reactor operator to verify that operability determinations or functionality evaluations were complete. The failure to properly document operability or functionality basis used to determine the operability or functionality of safety-related or important to safety equipment used at the site is a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency has the potential to lead to a 5 more significant safety concern and is therefore a finding. Specifically, if operations personnel continue to fail to properly document operability or functionality basis, the licensee could have safety-related equipment inoperable or important to safety equipment unavailable without taking appropriate compensatory actions. Using IMC 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power, the finding was screened against the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was/did not: 1) a deficiency affecting the design or qualification of a mitigating structure, system or component, 2) represent a loss of system and/or function, 3) represent an actual loss of function of a single train for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time, 4) represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-technical specification trains of equipment designated as high safety-significant for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and 5) did not involve the loss or degradation of equipment or function specifically designed to mitigate a seismic, flooding or severe weather event. The inspectors determined this finding affected the cross-cutting area of human performance in the aspect of training, where the organization provides training and ensures knowledge transfer to maintain a knowledgeable, technically competent workforce and instill nuclear safety values. Specifically, personnel performing the reviews believed existing training provided sufficient knowledge without the use of additional resources material and current training to operators does not cover this activity [H.9]. |
