Management and Human Performance Root Cause Statement:
- There was less than an adequate nuclear safety focus
- There was a focus on production, established by management, combined with taking minimum actions to meet regulatory requirements, that resulted in the acceptance of degraded conditions Management Actions

21 Background
- Identified an issue between potential debris and the existing internal pump clearances
- Pumps hydrostatic bearing clearances are less than Containment Emergency Sump strainer mesh
- Debris in water from the containment emergency sump could potentially block the ports that provide lubrication to the hydrostatic bearings resulting in pump failure
- Options to address issue include:
- Replacement with HPI pumps that are not susceptible to this degradation mechanism
- Modify existing pumps to add internal strainer to prevent debris from entering bearing High Pressure Injection Pump
May 6, 2003 May 6, 2003 Davis-Besse Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Nuclear Power Station 22 Replacement Option:
