| Title | Failure to implement foreign material exclusion control procedure for spent fuel pool |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of Technical Specification 5.4.1.a, Procedures, for failure to follow Procedure AP 12-003, Foreign Material Exclusion. On January 17, 2009, inspectors conducted a walkdown of the spent fuel pool area and found numerous untracked tools and other equipment inside the fuel pool area. Inspectors also found duct tape attached to various fueling and control rod tools such that duct tape was above and below the water. Condition Report 2009-001388 was initiated identifying a loss of spent fuel pool foreign material control. Subsequently, Wolf Creek began re-inventorying all materials in the spent fuel pool area. The inspectors determined that the failure to implement multiple steps of Procedure AP 12-003 was a performance deficiency. This finding is more than minor because it impacted the Barrier Integrity cornerstone attribute of configuration control and affected the cornerstone objective to maintain functionality of the spent fuel pool system. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, this finding was determined be of very low safety significance because the finding - only affected the barrier function of the spent fuel pool. This finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because even though personnel had been made aware of Wolf Creeks policy on procedure use and adherence through site-wide communications, personnel still failed to follow numerous parts of the procedure, such that Wolf Creek was not using the procedure H.4.b] (Section 1R05) |
