Title | Failure to Incorporate LERs in OE Program |
Description | The inspectors identified a finding for the licensees failure to follow the operating experience programs requirement to review external licensee event reports, and initiate a condition report for those potentially applicable to Wolf Creek. The licensee had discontinued reviewing external licensee event reports and writing condition reports, contrary to Procedure AP-20E-001, Industry Operating Experience Program, Revision 25. Instead, the program relied upon the receipt of a third partys report prior to initiating a condition report. The inspectors determined that the third party does not submit a report for every nuclear power plant licensee event report. During the inspection, the licensee conducted an extent of condition and entered the issue into its corrective action program as CR-87670. The licensees failure to follow the operating experience programs requirement was a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor because if left uncorrected, it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the licensees failure to review external licensee event reports and initiate condition reports when potentially applicable to Wolf Creek, per Procedure AP-20E-001 was a programmatic deficiency that could cause unacceptable conditions to go undetected. In accordance with Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Initial Characterization of Findings, dated June 19, 2012, and Inspection Manual Chapter 0609 Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, dated June 19, 2012, the team determined the finding was most appropriately associated with the Mitigating System Cornerstone, and was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not represent an actual loss of function. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect of avoid complacency, because the licensee did not use error reduction tools to confirm that the third-party report contained all external licensee event reports [H.12]. |
