Finding

Title

Inadequate Procedures to Ensure Proper Main Feed Pump Speed During Startup

Description

The inadequate procedural direction to establish optimal bypass valve position at the correct time during the startup is a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor, therefore a finding, because it is associated with the Initiating Events Cornerstone attribute of procedure quality and it affects the objective to limit the likelihood of those events that upset plant stability and challenge critical safety functions during shutdown as well as power operations. The inspectors evaluated the significance of this finding using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance since the finding contributed to the likelihood of a reactor trip; however, it did not contribute to the likelihood that mitigation equipment or functions would not be available. This finding had a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the operating experience component because Wolf Creek failed to institutionalize internal operating experience by changing plant procedures.
