| Title | Failure to Follow Corrective Action Program Procedure |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criteria V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, after Arizona Public Service failed to follow station procedures and enter issues into the corrective action program. Specifically, the inspectors identified that Palo Verde Action Requests had not been created, contrary to the requirements of procedure 01DP-0AP12, Palo Verde Action Request Processing, when significant delays in completing maintenance on safety related components occurred. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program as Condition Report Disposition Request 4078014. The licensee initiated corrective actions to conduct training on the requirements to enter issues into the corrective action program and is evaluating further corrective actions. The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criteria V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, after Arizona Public Service failed to follow station procedures and enter issues into the corrective action program. Specifically, the inspectors identified that Palo Verde Action Requests had not been created, contrary to the requirements of procedure 01DP-0AP12, Palo Verde Action Request Processing, when significant delays in completing maintenance on safety related components occurred. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program as Condition Report Disposition Request 4078014. The licensee initiated corrective actions to conduct training on the requirements to enter issues into the corrective action program and is evaluating further corrective actions. The failure of plant personnel to enter issues into the corrective action program was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it affected the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding was evaluated under the Significance Determination Process, Inspection Manual Chapter 0609.04, Phase I Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, to be of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding: (1) is not a design or qualification issue; (2) did not represent an actual loss of safety function of the system or train; (3) did not result in the loss of one or more trains of non-technical specification equipment; and (4) did not screen as potentially risk significant due to a seismic, flooding, or severe weather initiating event. The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the work practices component because the licensee failed to define and effectively communicate expectations to maintenance department personnel regarding the prompt initiation of Palo Verde Action Requests into the corrective action program |
