| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50.54(q), requires, in part, that a licensee maintain and follow an emergency plan that meets the requirements of 50.47(b). Contrary to the above, between May 2 and May 15, 2010, the licensee did not follow the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station Emergency Plan, Revision 20-3. Specifically, the licensee failed to perform a routine silent test of the prompt notification system as required by emergency plan Section E.3, Notification of the General Public and NUREG-0654/FEMA Report 1, Appendix 3, Means for Providing Prompt Alerting and Notification of Response Organizations and the Population, Section C.3(h), Siren Testing Guidance, which requires silent system tests be performed every 2 weeks. This finding was more than minor because it affects the Facilities and Equipment (Alert Notification System Testing) attribute of the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone objective. The licensee has entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report 10-14117. The finding was evaluated as having very low safety significance because it was a failure to comply with NRC requirements, was associated with a nonrisk-significant planning standard and did not constitute a degraded planning standard function. |
