| Title | Failure to Comply with Technical Specification 5.5.14, Technical Specifications (TS) Bases Control Program |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation for failure to comply with Technical Specification 5.5.14, Technical Specifications (TS) Bases Control Program. Specifically, the licensee made a change to the technical specification bases that altered the application of Technical Specification 3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves, for the hydrogen monitoring system without receiving prior approval from the NRC. The licensee issued a night order to disregard the statement in the technical specification bases and declare the valves inoperable in accordance with Technical Specification 3.6.3 pending a change to the bases. The licensee entered the issue into their corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201208045. The inspectors determined that the violation was more than minor because in order to perform its regulatory function, the NRC relies on licensees to comply with their licensing basis documents and request prior approval for changes that may affect these documents. Because this issue affected the NRC\'s ability to perform its regulatory function, it was evaluated using the traditional enforcement process. This violation was classified as a Severity Level IV violation because it was not willful and was consistent with the guidance in Section 6.1, Paragraph d., of the NRC Enforcement Policy. Cross-cutting aspects are not assigned to traditional enforcement violations. |
