At 0930 EDT on 5/3/2021, it was determinedAt 0930 EDT on 5/3/2021, it was determined that during entries into the Fermi 2 Reactor Building Steam Tunnel (RBST) on 4/17/2021, 4/18/2021, and 4/21/2021 that the door was not controlled according to site procedures. The RBST door is credited as a hazard barrier for various high-energy line break (HELB) scenarios. On the identified dates, the RBST door was left open for brief periods during maintenance related activities in the RBST. This condition is not bounded by existing analyses as the door is assumed to be closed throughout a HELB event. The time period that the door was open was less than one hour in each case, as stay times in the room are inherently limited by industrial and radiological conditions. Individuals remained in the area to close the door if needed, but existing analyses do not address the ability to perform those actions under all HELB scenarios.</br>There is no impact to the health and safety of the public or plant personnel as the door is currently closed and latched and access into the area has been restricted to normal ingress and egress per site procedures, which ensures consistency with existing analyses. Therefore, this event is being reported as an eight-hour, non-emergency notification per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(ii)(B). Investigation into the cause is ongoing. Preliminary review of the extent of this condition identified entries into the RBST on other occasions during the past three years where the conditions may also have not been bounded by existing analyses. The additional occasions where the door may have been held open were on 9/22/2018 (MODE 3), 10/26/2018 (MODE 1 ), 11/2/2018 (MODE 1), and 3/21/2020 (MODE 3). Each of these instances was also less than one hour with the exception of the occurrence beginning on 10/26/2018 which lasted approximately 10 hours to support packing leak repairs on a HPCI (High Pressure Coolant Injection) Outboard Isolation Valve.</br>The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.ensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.  +
