05000395/FIN-2016007-022016Q4SummerFailure to Correct a Condition Adverse to Quality Associated with a Previously Issued NCVThe inspectors identified a non-cited violation (NCV) of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for the failure to correct a condition adverse to quality associated with a previously issued NCV, 05000395/2012004-02, Inadequate Installation of Unit 1 Service Water Piping and Related Pipe Support. The licensee entered the issue in the correction action program as condition report (CR)-16-04621. The PD is more than minor because if left uncorrected, the reduction in design margin of the pipe support could affect the Unit 1 SW systems ability to mitigate a seismic event. Specifically, Unit 1 service water (SW) piping and support had been impacted by the reduction in design margin and without formally updating the associated drawings and calculations or restoring to the original design, future modifications to the system could impact the systems ability to mitigate a seismic event. Using Manual Chapter 0609 Attachment 04, Initial Characterization of Findings, Table 2, dated October 07, 2016, the finding was determined to adversely affect the External Event Mitigating Systems. The inspectors screened the finding using Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 0609, Appendix A, Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at-Power, dated June 19, 2012, and determined that it screened as Green (very low safety significance) because the service water system maintained its functionality to mitigate a seismic event. The inspectors determined that the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of PI&R because the licensee did not take effective corrective actions to address this issue in a timely manner (P.3).
05000395/FIN-2016007-012016Q4SummerFailure to Implement Corrective Actions and Restore Compliance for Previous NRCIdentified SLIV NCVThe inspectors identified a cited Severity Level (SL) IV violation of Operating Licensee Condition 2.C.(18) for failure to ensure that conditions adverse to fire protection as noted in a previous NRC-identified SLIV NCV, 05000395/2016001-01, Failure to Implement Adequate Administrative Controls Following a Departure from National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 80-1973 and Provide NRC Staff Complete and Accurate Information, were promptly corrected. Specifically, the licensee failed to implement corrective actions and restore compliance in a timely manner for (1) the noncompliance with 10 CFR 50.9 to provide staff complete and accurate information and (2) fire doors DRIB/105A&B currently do not meet self-closing requirements in accordance with the current NFPA 805 licensing basis and no actions were specified in licensees corrective action program to restore compliance. The licensee entered the issue in their corrective action program as condition report (CR)-16-04701. The inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was more than minor because it impacted the ability of the NRC to perform its regulatory oversight function and was dispositioned using traditional enforcement. Because the licensee failed to implement corrective actions and restore compliance in a timely manner, this violation is being treated as a cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2. a of the NRC Enforcement Policy. This violation involved traditional enforcement and a cross-cutting aspect was not assigned to this violation.
