Title	Special Nuclear Materials Inventory Discovers a Fuel Pin Missing
Event Description	As a result of NRC Bulletin 2005-01 "Material Control and Accounting at Reactors and Wet Spent Fuel Storage Facilities", Oconee has been conducting an inventory of Special Nuclear Materials (SNM), other than complete fuel assemblies, stored in the spent fuel pools at Oconee. One canister, documented as containing 383 fuel pins, was found to actually contain 382 fuel pins. At this time it is uncertain if this is a record keeping error or an actual "lost" pin. Initial Safety Significance: The inventory process for other canisters is not complete, and it is possible that the pin may be in another container. These containers being inventoried have been stored underwater in the spent fuel pool for years. The affected canister was filled in 1982. Oconee has no reason to believe that this pin or any other SNM has been stolen or unlawfully diverted. For reference, one fuel assembly contains 208 fuel pins. Corrective Action(s): The inventory process is continuing. This notification is being trade per 10 CFR 74.11. The NRC Resident Inspector will be notified. RETRACTION on 08/16/05 at 1537 EDT by Stephen C. Newman to MacKinnon ***** On July 17, 2005 at 1838 [ET] Oconee reported that during an inventory of Special Nuclear Material (SNM), other than complete fuel assemblies stored in the spend fuel pools at Oconee, one canister, documented as containing 383 fuel pins, was found to actually contain 382 fuel pins. At that time it was uncertain if this is a record keeping error or an actual "lost" pin. Further investigation has located the suspect fuel pin in a different canister; consequently, this issue no longer meets the reporting requirements as previously stated and this report is being retracted. Initial Safety Significance: There is no initial safety significance. Corrective Action(s): No additional corrective actions planned at this time. R2DO (C. Julian), NMSS EO (M. Burgess) and IRD Manger (M. Leach) notified. NRC resident Inspector was notified of this retraction by the licensee.
