Title	Unanalyzed Condition Identified
Event Description	At 1700 EDT on June 16, 2017 it was determined that an unanalyzed condition was identified that failed to meet performance criteria. This report is conservatively being made in accordance with 10CFR70 Appendix A (b)(1). In the powder process, a non-radioactive additive is added to a can of uranium in a hood. A previous process hazard analysis (PHA) determined that a criticality in the associated HEPA filters was not credible during this step. A recent update to a criticality analysis identified a potential condition where small amounts of uranium could build up in the HEPA filter over decades. The ISA [Integrated Safety Analysis] team met and decided that current safety controls will need to be implemented as IROFS [items relied on for safety] to assure that performance criteria are met. The operation is currently shut down and no unsafe condition existed. Safety Significance of Events: At no time was an unsafe condition present. Safety Equipment Status: The operation was shutdown. Status of Corrective Actions: Additional corrective actions, extent of condition, and extent of cause are being investigated.
