Title | Failure to Critique a Weakness during a Biennial Exercise. |
Description | The inspectors identified a Green noncited violation for failure to critique weak performance in the Technical Support Center during a biennial exercise conducted March 1, 2011, as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, IV(F)(2)(g). Specifically, the licensee did not identify that the Technical Support Center did not understand the radiological release path and that they had developed ineffective mitigation strategies based on their inaccurate understanding. This performance deficiency is more than minor because it affected the emergency preparedness cornerstone and was associated with the emergency response organization performance attribute. The finding had a credible impact on the emergency preparedness cornerstone objective because a lack of understanding of the release path for radioactive material affects the licensees ability to implement adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public. The finding was evaluated using the emergency preparedness significance determination process and was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it was a failure to comply with NRC requirements, was associated with Emergency Planning Standard 50.47(b)(14), was not a risk significant planning standard issue, and was not a functional failure of the planning standard. The issue was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report / Disposition Requests 3693235. This finding was assigned a cross-cutting aspect in the area of problem identification and resolution because the licensee failed to identify a performance issue completely and accurately. |
