Inspection Report 315/86030; 316/86030 NRC Violation "10 CFR 50.73 (a)(2)(ii) requires that the licensee submit a Licensee Event Report (LER) for any event or condition that resulted in the condition of the power plant, including its'rincipal safety barriers, being seriously
- degraded, or that resulted in the power plant being:
(a) in an unanalyzed condition that significantly compromised plant safety; (b) in a condition that was outside the design basis of the plant; or (c) in a condition not covered by the plant's Operating and Emergency Procedures.
Unit 1 and 2
Technical Specifications require all safety relief valves operable in Modes 1 through 3.
Contrary to the above, the licensee did not submit a Licensee Event Report when a number of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 main steam safety relief valves, a
principle safety barrier, were found degraded during a Technical Specification surveillance test with the units in Mode 3."
Res onse to NRC Violation Corrective Action Taken and Results Achieved Upon discovery that several of the main steam safety valve setpoints were out of technical specification tolerance the immediate corrective action
- taken, as required by procedure 12 HHP 4030.STP.002 "Hain Steam Setpoint Verficiation-Secondary System Safety Valve Setting",
was to reset the safety valves setpoints to within their specified ranges.
Licensee Event Reports were not submitted at the time the valves were found to be out of tolerence, for reasons explained in LER No. 86-020-00.
This event and the corrective actions have since been reported in detail in LER No. 86-020-00 submitted on September 24, 1986.
Corrective Action To Be Taken To Avoid Further Violations Procedure 12 HHP 4030.STP.002 will be modified prior to the next scheduled surveillance to include instructions on reportability.
In the future condition reports will be initiated as documentation of any safety valves failing to be in compliance.
Date When Full Com liance Achieved Full compliance was achieved on September 24, 1986 upon issuance of LER No.
86-020-00.
