The inspectors identified a finding of verThe inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, for the licensees failure to identify a continuous gas intrusion into one train of RHR, which was a CAQ, resulting in a continuous undetected void growth that exceeded the applicable operability limits. The licensee did not consider applicable active gas intrusion mechanisms when evaluating the discovery of a void at the RHR piping. The licensee captured this issue into their CAP and stopped the continuous gas intrusion into the affected piping location. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it was associated with the Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of equipment performance, and affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. The finding screened as of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not result in the loss of operability or functionality of mitigating systems. Specifically, the licensee performed a past operability review of the void and reasonably concluded that the system remained operable. The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross cutting aspect in the area of human performance because the licensee did not recognize and plan for the possibility of mistakes when evaluating the gas surveillance results of February 10, 2015. Specifically, the licensee did not plan for the possibility that the unacceptable results were indicative of a different problem than originally determined or a combination of problems. As a result, the licensee failed to identify the continuous gas intrusion incident.ify the continuous gas intrusion incident.  +
