| Title | Failure to Adequately Monitor Control Room Deficiencies |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding for the failure to follow Procedure AI 22A-001, Operator Work Arounds/Burdens/Control Room Deficiencies, Revision 8, to adequately identify, document, and track control room deficiencies associated with instruments and controls to ensure proper prioritization and timely corrective actions. Specifically, inspectors observed that the licensee had approximately 52 WR (work request) buttons on the control boards indicating that work requests had been initiated to correct problems on instruments and controls. However, not all deficiencies were logged, and some of the deficiencies had existed for years without correction or justification. The licensee initiated Condition Report 27034 to document and evaluate this concern.
The deficiency was more than minor because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern, in that, the deficient condition could cause an operator to take an inappropriate action based on expected plant response or conversely cause an operator not to take action when action is required. The finding is associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. The senior reactor analyst determined that this finding was not appropriate to be evaluated using the significance determination process since this finding was associated with numerous equipment issues and associated human performance aspects that might impact equipment operation. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix M, Significance Determination Process Using Qualitative Criteria, the finding is determined to have very low safety significance because there was no adverse impact to plant equipment. The inspectors determined that the cause of the finding has a crosscutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution associated with the component of corrective action program because the licensee did not identify issues completely, accurately, and in a timely manner commensurate with their safety significance P.1(a) |
