| Title | Failure to Report a Condition Prohibited by Technical Specifications |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B) for the failure to report a condition prohibited by technical specifications to the NRC within 60 days. Specifically, on March 6, 2012, after reviewing licensee records, the inspectors informed the licensee that a violation of Technical Specification 3.4.1.4.2.b had occurred during the Unit 2 spring 2010 Refueling Outage 2RE13, because valves which isolated an unborated water source were not locked in the closed position. The licensees corrective action included revising the reportability procedures to ensure that both units are addressed in the future. The failure to report the occurrence of a condition prohibited by technical specifications is a performance deficiency which impacted the regulatory process and is a violation of NRC requirements. The violation was processed using traditional enforcement and determined to be a Severity Level IV violation consistent with Section 6.9 of the Enforcement Policy dated June 7, 2012 |
