The inspectors identified a Severity Level … The inspectors identified a Severity Level lV, NCV of 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(i)(B), because Entergy personnel did not provide a written licensee event report (LER) to the NRC within 60 days of identifying during testing that MS-46D, main steam line safety valve, was inoperable and in a condition prohibited by the plants Technical Specification (TS). Entergy personnel adjusted the valves lift setpoint to within the TS operability limit, repaired and tested the valve before plant startup. Entergy staff entered this issue into the CAP as CR-IP2-2012-3320 and CR-IP2-2012-4153. The inspectors determined that the failure to provide a written LER within 60 days was a performance deficiency that was reasonably within Entergys ability to foresee and correct, and should have been prevented.
