| Title | Failure to Implement Procedures to Test SAFETY-RELATED Equipment |
| Description | The team identified a violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for the licensees failure to perform testing of safety-related spring-loaded tornado dampers in the emergency diesel generator and essential service water rooms. In 2008, the licensee identified that because the updated safety analysis report (USAR) incorrectly classified these active components as passive, they had not been included in a periodic testing or surveillance program. Since 2010, action items to test the dampers have received four due date extensions. Additionally, required training for this testing was completed and closed. However, no testing or surveillance was accomplished. This failure was the subject of a previous violation issued by the NRC. The licensee failed to take timely corrective actions to restore compliance. The licensee entered this finding in its corrective action program as condition report 53363. The team determined that the licensees failure to implement corrective action was a performance deficiency. This finding was more than minor because it affected the equipment reliability attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, failure to implement this corrective action could result in reduced reliability of safety-related equipment during an event initiated by a tornado. Using Chapter 0609.04, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the team determined that this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because it was not a design or qualification deficiency, did not represent a loss of system safety function, and during a tornado, would not cause a plant trip if failed, would not degrade two or more trains of a multi-train safety system, and would not degrade one or more trains of a system that supports a safety system or function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the resources component of the human performance cross-cutting area because the licensee failed to provide complete, accurate, and up-to-date design documentation, procedures, and work packages were available and adequate to support nuclear safety |
