| Title | Failure to follow 10 CFR 50.65a(2) for containment isolatio valve failures |
| Description | On February 25, 2009, the inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.65 a(2), the Maintenance Rule, for failure to demonstrate that the performance of a containment isolation valve was effectively controlled through the performance of preventive maintenance such that the valve remained capable of performing its intended function. An inadequate Maintenance Rule evaluation was performed after a containment isolation valve (SJHV0005) exceeded its Maintenance Rule a(2) performance criteria, and as a result goal setting and monitoring were not performed as required by paragraph a(1) of the Maintenance Rule. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report 2009-001667. The failure to follow 10 CFR 50.65 a(2) and properly evaluate the failed valve, establish performance goals, and monitor its performance is considered a performance deficiency. Per Inspection Manual Chapter 0612, Appendix E, Section 7, this finding is more than minor because failure to demonstrate effective control of performance or condition and not putting the affected structures, systems, and components in (a)(1) necessarily involves degraded structures, systems, or components performance or condition. Under NRC Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, the Phase I Significance Screening Process, it was found that the finding is of very low safety significance because it does not represent an actual open pathway in the physical integrity of the reactor containment. This finding was determined to have a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program because the licensee failed to properly classify, prioritize, and evaluate a condition adverse to quality P.1.c] (Section 1R12) |
