Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
Description | This violation of very low safety-significant was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy. Violation: 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V requires, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings, of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. Contrary to the above, on May 24, 2007, the licensee failed to perform the installation of the Unit 1, channel C excore nuclear instrument preamplifier connection, an activity affecting quality, in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings. The licensee determined that a human performance error occurred during the performance of the 2007 work order which explicitly stated that the o-rings were required for environmental qualification. As a result, the excore detector would not have performed its safety function during a design basis main steam line break. Significance/Severity Level: The team determined this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because a minimum of two excore detector channels always remained available to trip the reactor during a main steam line break. Redundant channels were not affected and were available to perform the required safety function to trip the reactor. Corrective Action Reference(s): Condition Report 18-12217 |
