IDENTIFICATION OF OCCURRENCE:

Missed Surveillance - Channel Check of Post Accident Monitoring Instrumentati c.. (SP (0) 4. 3. 3. 7)

CONDITIONS PRIOR TO OCCURRENCE:

Various Operational Modes DESCRIPTION OF OCCURRENCE:

During the review of surveillance procedures in preparation for mode change it was determined that the surveillance for Technical Specifi-cation 3.3.3.7 was overdue.

The surveillance is required to be performed every 31 days and was last perforced April 22, 1981.

Even though a large majority of the Post Accident Monitoring Instrumentation is channel checked every 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> during routine control console readings the surveillance of 3.3.3.7 was not completed in its entirety.

This occurrence constituted operation in a degraded mode in accordance with Technical Specification 6.9.1.9.b.

DESIGNATION OF APPARENT CAUSE OF OCCURRENCE:

l Personnel error.

A new surveillance procedure had been issued to meet the surveillance requirements of Technical Specification 3.3.3.7.

l Previously these requirements were met thought channel checks made when the control console reading were taken once per 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.

When the procedure was issued personnel failed to enter it into the Inspec-tion Order System.

Therefore, when the surveillance became due no j

notification was made through the Inspection Order System to complete the surveillance.

l l

ANALYSIS OF OCCURRENCE:

Technical Specification 3.3.3.7.b requires that with the number of l

operable accident monitoring channels less than the minimum channels required, restore the inoperable channels to operable status within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> or be in at least hot shutdown within the next 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.
