Title | Failure to Log Foreign Material in Spent Fuel Pool After Extent of Condition Evaluation |
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 August 12, 2009, the inspectors conducted a walkdown of the spent fuel pool area and found duct tape attached to various fueling and control rod tools such that duct tape was below the water. This duct tape was not in the foreign material exclusion logs. Spent fuel pool foreign material control is required under Procedure AP 12-003. The licensee entered this issue in their corrective action program as Condition Report 20338. The inspectors determined that the failure to log material in accordance with 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 to be of very low safety significance because the finding only affected the barrier function of the spent fuel pool. The inspectors determined that this finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the corrective action program component because although Wolf Creek performed a root cause and extent of condition evaluation for untracked foreign material, the evaluation still failed to find the duct tape in the pool itself. This allowed the tape to continue to be untracked P.1.c] (Section 1R05) |
