Title | Failure to Administer a Comprehensive Requalification Operating Test |
Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 55.59, Requalification, for failure to administer a comprehensive annual requalification operating test to one crew. After a quality review by NRC inspectors, it was determined that the job performance measure set administered in Week 2 of the testing cycle did not contain at least 40 percent alternate path job performance measures, as required by Procedure CTM-OPS, Callaway Training Manual: Operations Programs, Section 6.5.3.g.1.c. One of the job performance measures which the licensee had credited as an alternate path did not meet the criteria to be considered an alternate path, thereby leaving only one actual alternate path job performance measure in the set (20 percent). As an immediate corrective action, the licensee replaced one of the job performance measures from the Week 2 set with a new alternate path job performance measure which was administered to the affected operators, thereby ensuring that the 40 percent requirement was met prior to the completion of the 2-year requalification cycle. This issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Callaway Action Request 201306740. Failure to administer a comprehensive annual operating test containing at least 40 percent alternate path job performance measures to one crew is a performance deficiency. This performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it adversely impacted the human performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Additionally, if left uncorrected, the finding could have become more significant in that allowing licensed operators to return to the control room without a valid demonstration of appropriate knowledge on the annual operating test could be a precursor to a more significant event if latent knowledge deficiencies went unidentified. Using NRC Manual Chapter 0609, Significance Determination Process, Phase 1 worksheets, and the corresponding Appendix I, Licensed Operator Requalification Significance Determination Process, the finding was determined to have very low safety significance (Green) because, while it was related to annual operating test quality, less than 40 percent of the reviewed job performance measures and simulator scenarios were flawed (Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix I, Flowchart, Blocks 6, 7, and 8). This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of resources associated with ensuring that work packages (in this case exam packages) are complete, accurate, and up-to-date such that industry standards for exam quality are met. |
