An NRC-identified finding of very low safeAn NRC-identified finding of very low safety significance and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, was identified by the inspectors when licensee personnel failed to establish instructions for measuring pipe voids detected during surveillances of the emergency core cooling systems for gas accumulation. Specifically, instructions to measure the size of gas voids detected during venting at each safety injection and residual heat removal system vent location were not provided so that the effect of the void on system operability could be evaluated. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program and initiated procedure revisions to provide additional guidance for recording data to size voids identified during venting operations.</br>The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because if left uncorrected it would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The finding screened as having very low safety significance because it did not result in a loss of operability or functionality. Specifically, a qualitative assessment of the voids detected by venting since the implementation of the licensees resolution of Generic Letter 2008-01 established reasonable assurance that these voids did not result in a loss of operability. The inspectors did not identify a cross-cutting aspect that represented the underlying cause of this performance deficiency. Therefore, no cross-cutting aspect was assigned to this finding.tting aspect was assigned to this finding.  +
