ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 5 of 59 Technical Specification (Tech Spec) Violation - Includes conditions prohibited by Tech Specs. For any event where actions are taken in accordance with Tech Spec action statements, a Tech Spec violation has not occurred unless specified time periods in Tech Specs are exceeded. | |||
NOTE Attachment 2 may be used to determine if an event is reportable. While the reportability of many events is self evident, some may not be readily apparent and the use of Engineering Judgment is necessary. Engineering Judgment may include either a documented engineering analysis or a judgment by a technically qualified individual, depending on the complexity, seriousness, and nature of the event or condition. A documented engineering analysis is not a requirement for all events or conditions, but it would be appropriate for particularly complex situations. In any case, the staff considers that the use of Engineering Judgment implies a logical thought process that supports the judgment. When applying Engineering Judgment, and there is doubt regarding whether to report or not, it is | Valid Actuations - Those actuations that result from "valid signals" or from intentional manual initiation, unless it is part of a preplanned test. Valid signals are those signals that are initiated in response to actual plant conditions or parameters satisfying the requirements for initiation of the safety function of the system. | ||
Invalid Actuations - Include actuations that are not the result of valid signals and are not intentional manual actuations. Invalid actuations include instances where instrument drift, spurious signals, human error, or other invalid signals caused actuation of the system (e.g., | |||
jarring a cabinet; error in use of jumpers or lifted leads; an error in actuation of switches or controls; equipment failure; or radio frequency interference). | |||

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 8 of 59 3.2 REPORTABLE EVENTS (WRITTEN NOTIFICATIONS) 3.2.1 LICENSEE EVENT REPORT (LER) | |||
NOTE Section 50.73 requires submittal of an LER within 60 days after the discovery of a reportable event. Many reportable events are discovered when they occur. However, if the event is discovered at some later time, the discovery date is when the reportability clock starts under 10 CFR 50.73. Discovery date is generally the date when the event was discovered rather than the date when an evaluation of the event is completed. For example, if a technician sees a problem, but a delay occurs before an engineer or supervisor has a chance to review the situation, the discovery date (which starts the 60-day clock) is the date the technician sees a problem. | |||
In some cases, such as discovery of an existing but previously unrecognized condition, it may be necessary to undertake an evaluation in order to determine if an event or condition is reportable. If so, the guidance provided in Generic Letter 91-18, Information to Licensees Regarding Two NRC Inspection Manual Sections on Resolution of Degraded and Nonconforming Conditions and on Operability which applies primarily to operability determinations, is appropriate for reportability determinations as well. This guidance indicates that, whenever reasonable expectation that the equipment in question is operable no longer exists, or significant doubts begin to arise, appropriate actions, including reporting, should be taken. | |||
(1) An LER (NRC Form 366) shall be prepared by the Licensing Department and submitted to the NRC within 60 days after discovery and/or classification as reportable, for the following events. Unless otherwise specified, only those events which occurred within 3 years of the date of discovery are reportable: | |||
(a) The completion of any plant shutdown required by the plants Technical Specifications. (50.73(a)(2)(i)(A)) | |||
(b) Any operation or condition prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications, except when: | |||
(i) The Technical Specification is administrative in nature; (ii) The event consisted solely of a case of a late surveillance test where the oversight was corrected, the test was performed, and the equipment was found to be capable of performing its specified safety functions; or (iii) The Technical Specification was revised prior to discovery of the event such that the operation or condition was no longer prohibited at the time of discovery of the event. (50.73(a)(2)(i)(B). | |||
(10 CFR 50. | ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 9 of 59 (c) Any operation or condition prohibited by the DAEC operating license. (Administrative Requirement NG-91-4028) | ||
(d) Any deviation from Tech Specs authorized pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(x). | |||
(50.73(a)(2)(i)(C)) | |||
(e) Any event or condition that resulted in: | |||
(i) The condition of the nuclear power plant, including its principal safety barriers, being seriously degraded; or (ii) The nuclear power plant being in an unanalyzed condition that significantly degraded plant safety. 50.73(a)(2)(ii) | |||
(f) Any natural phenomenon or other external condition that posed an actual threat to the safety of the nuclear power plant or significantly hampered site personnel in the performance of duties necessary for the safe operation of the plant. (50.73(a)(2)(iii)) | |||
NOTE Excess Flow Check Valves (XFVs) have, in the past tripped when returning instruments to service or performing instrument valve manipulations. Unless in response to an actual system leak, XFV trips as described above are not considered reportable under the following system actuation criteria. | |||
(g) Any event or condition that resulted in manual or automatic actuation of any of the specific plant systems listed in (h) below, except when: | |||
: 1. The actuation resulted from and was part of a preplanned sequence during testing or reactor operation; or | |||
: 2. The actuation was invalid and: | |||
: a. Occurred while the system was properly removed from service; or | |||
: b. Occurred after the safety function had been already completed.(50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A). | |||
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 10 of 59 NOTE 10CFR50.73(a)(1) allows a 60-day telephone report to be made (instead of a written LER) for invalid actuations of any of the following systems except for RPS actuations when the reactor is critical. | |||
(h) 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(iv)(B) lists 9 types of systems for both PWR and BWR reactor plants. The following list of DAEC specific systems and system modes of operation is provided to define the plant systems to which this reporting requirement applies at DAEC: | |||

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 12 of 59 (m) Any event or condition that as a result of a single cause could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function for two or more trains or channels in different systems that are needed to: | |||
* Shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition; | |||
* Remove residual heat; | |||
* Control the release of radioactive material; or | |||
* Mitigate the consequences of an accident. (50.73(a)(2)(ix)(A)). | |||
(n) Events covered in paragraph (m) above may include cases of procedural error, equipment failures, and/or discovery of a design, analysis, fabrication, construction, and/or procedural inadequacy However, an event is not required to be reported under this specific criterion if the event results from: | |||
* A shared dependency among trains or channels that is a natural and expected consequence of the approved plant design; or | |||
* Normal and expected wear or degradation.(50.73(a)(2)(ix)(B). | |||
(o) Any event that posed an actual threat to the safety of the plant or significantly hampered site personnel in the performance of duties necessary for the safe operation of the plant including fires, toxic gas releases, or radioactive releases. | |||
(50.73(a)(2)(x)) | |||
(p) Any event which meets the one-hour reportability criteria of 10 CFR 73.71, as detailed in Security Procedure 11. (Safeguards) (See Attachments 2 and 3.) | |||

3.2.2 10 CFR 72 EVENT REPORT NOTE Section 72.75 requires submittal of a written report within 60 days after the discovery of a reportable events (b)(1), (c)(1), (c)(2), and (d)(1). Many reportable events are discovered when they occur. However, if the event is discovered at some later time, the discovery date is when the reportability clock starts under 10 CFR 72.75. Discovery date is generally the date when the event was discovered rather than the date when an evaluation of the event is completed. For example, if a technician sees a problem, but a delay occurs before an engineer or supervisor has a chance to review the situation, the discovery date (which starts the 60 day clock) is the date the technician sees the problem. | |||
In some cases, such as discovery of an existing but previously unrecognized condition, it may be necessary to undertake an evaluation in order to determine if an event or condition is reportable. Whenever reasonable expectation that the equipment in question is operable no longer exists, or significant doubts begin to arise, appropriate actions, including reporting, should be taken. | |||
Written reports prepared pursuant to other regulations may be submitted to fulfill the Part 72 reporting requirement if the reports contain all the necessary information and the appropriate distribution is made. | |||
Reports required under 10 CFR 73.71 need not be duplicated under requirements of 10 CFR 72.74. | |||

Incorrect - IAW AOP 304 - The AUTO Voltage Regulator will maintain generator operation within the generator capability curve. Operation of the over excitation limiter initiates annunciator 1C08C B-4. Once the limiter is initiated the auto voltage regulator may be limiting excitation of the generator.
Shifting to Manual Voltage Control under these conditions may cause a generator trip. Because a trip would have already occurred, this action is not correct.
B. Correct - IAW AOP 304 - IF notified by ITC Midwest that the contingency of a trip of the DAEC would lead to an undervoltage condition of < 99.2% in the DAEC switchyard 161 KV bus, THEN Declare both Offsite Sources inoperable and enter TS LCO actions as required by the mode of applicability.
IAW ARP 1C-08C (B-4) - If the overvoltage condition exists for longer than 5 seconds, the Voltage Regulator transfers from AUTOMATIC to MANUAL.
The following occurs; If either or both generator output breakers are closed, the generator trip will be via the Generator Backup Lockout Relay 286/B. With the plant online both generator output breakers are closed, the generator will trip.
If the generator trips and power is above 26%, a reactor scram and entry to IPOI 5 is required.

The entire EOP may not be exited until it is determined that you are shutdown under all conditions B: Correct - Per ATWS EOP Bases Discussion Page 4, Shutdown under ALL conditions without boron can be determined by relying on the Technical Specification demonstration of adequate shutdown margin:
- One control rod is out beyond position 00
- All other control rods are at position 00 For other combinations of rod patterns and boron concentration, reactor engineering will need to perform a shutdown margin calculation.
When either of the conditions identified in the Continuous Recheck Statement is achieved, it is appropriate to terminate boron injection, exit the ATWS EOP, and enter EOP 1 for control of the transient.
Since these conditions are not given, the EOP may not be exited.

- MO1904 and MO1905, RHR Loop B Inject Isolation Valves are OPEN.
- MO1908 and MO1909, RHR Shutdown Cooling Suction Isolation Valves are OPEN.
Annunciator 1C03B (B-4), RHR SHUTDOWN COOLING SUCTION HEADER HI PRESSURE, alarms and SDC Header pressure is reported to be 105 psig and rising at 2 psig per minute.
You direct the operators to raise the cooldown rate.
Several minutes later, the 1C03 operator reports RHR suction header pressure is 125 psig and MO1940 is not responding.
Annunciator 1C05B (D-8), PCIS GROUP 4 ISOLATION INITIATED, has alarmed; and the operator reports that RHR suction header pressure is at 140 psig.
No other plant conditions have changed.
Based on these plant conditions, you direct the operators to ________?
- a. start the D RHRSW pump and raise RHRSW flow IAW OI 416, RHRSW System. Enter the Technical Specification Limiting Condition for Operation for LPCI.
- b. throttle OPEN more on MO1939 and start the D RHR pump if necessary. Enter the Technical Specification Limiting Condition for Operation for LPCI.

The ARP for a Group 4 should be carried out. Increasing RHRSW flow is not part of the ARP guidance B: Incorrect - ARP 1C03B B-4 directs increasing cooldown with MO 1939 and another pump would help flow. T.S. should be entered on failure of MO-1940.
However, the plant is above the PCIS Group 4 pressure and SDC should be promptly removed and isolated.
C: Correct - The initial alarm indicates an increase in RPV temperature and pressure. The ARP directs increasing the cooldown rate to lower pressure, which was directed. At 135 psig a PCIS group 4 should have occurred but did not. ARP 1C05B D-8 PCIS Group 4 Isolation should be in alarm and SDC secured. The CRS should direct the actions from the ARP that did not occur. In this case securing SDC is appropriate. Also entry into AOP 149 is directed.
D: Incorrect - Starting a second RHR pump would increase flow. AOP 149 entry is correct when SDC is lost and recovery of SDC will be the goal. However, the plant is above the PCIS Group 4 pressure(D RHR pump wont start under these conditions) and SDC should be promptly removed and isolated as directed in ARP 1C05B D-8 for pressure protection of the RHR piping.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 4 of 59 1.0 PURPOSE This procedure provides guidance for the preparation, review and approval of various reports required by regulatory agencies. These reports include periodic and/or routine reports required by DAEC Technical Specifications, Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, etc., and non-routine reports such as reportable events. Attachment 1 provides a summary of NRC required reports and cites the reporting requirements, preparer of report, recipient of report and method of report (telephone or written).
2.0 DEFINITIONS Action Request (AR) Form - A form which provides the mechanism for documenting the identification and evaluation of issues reported within the scope of FP-PA-RP-01.
Immediate Notification Event (INE) - An Immediate Notification Event is an incident that requires a 1, 4, 8, or 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> telephone notification as defined in 10 CFR 50.72, 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 26, 10 CFR 72.74, 10 CFR 72.75 and 10 CFR 73. (See Section 3.1)
Licensee Event Report (LER) - A Licensee Event Report is a document which provides a mechanism for reporting, in writing to the NRC, the identification and evaluation of a Reportable Event as defined in 10 CFR 50.73, 10 CFR 71.95, and 10 CFR 73.71. (See Section 3.2.1) 10 CFR 72 Event Report - A document which provides in writing to the NRC, the identification and evaluation of a Reportable Event as defined in 10 CFR 72 (See section 3.2.2)
Non-Routine Reports - Reports that are submitted to the NRC due to a change in the normal routine of the plant.
Packaging - One or more receptacles or wrappers used for the transportation of radioactive material and their contents, excluding fissile material and other radioactive material, but including absorbent material, spacing structures, thermal insulation, radiation shielding devices for cooling and absorbing mechanical shock, external fittings, neutron moderators, non-fissile neutron absorbers, and other supplementary equipment.
Reportable Event - A Reportable Event is an incident that requires a written LER or 10 CFR 72 Event Report (or, in some cases a telephone report) as defined in 10 CFR 50.73, 10 CFR 71.95, 10 CFR 72.74, 10 CFR 72.75, and 10 CFR 73.71. Attachments 2, 3 and 5 provide a listing of events that are considered reportable.
Routine Reports - Reports that are required to be submitted to the NRC on a scheduled basis during the normal lifetime of the plant.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 5 of 59 Technical Specification (Tech Spec) Violation - Includes conditions prohibited by Tech Specs. For any event where actions are taken in accordance with Tech Spec action statements, a Tech Spec violation has not occurred unless specified time periods in Tech Specs are exceeded.
Valid Actuations - Those actuations that result from "valid signals" or from intentional manual initiation, unless it is part of a preplanned test. Valid signals are those signals that are initiated in response to actual plant conditions or parameters satisfying the requirements for initiation of the safety function of the system.
Invalid Actuations - Include actuations that are not the result of valid signals and are not intentional manual actuations. Invalid actuations include instances where instrument drift, spurious signals, human error, or other invalid signals caused actuation of the system (e.g.,
jarring a cabinet; error in use of jumpers or lifted leads; an error in actuation of switches or controls; equipment failure; or radio frequency interference).
3.0 INSTRUCTIONS NOTE Attachment 2 may be used to determine if an event is reportable. While the reportability of many events is self evident, some may not be readily apparent and the use of Engineering Judgment is necessary. Engineering Judgment may include either a documented engineering analysis or a judgment by a technically qualified individual, depending on the complexity, seriousness, and nature of the event or condition. A documented engineering analysis is not a requirement for all events or conditions, but it would be appropriate for particularly complex situations. In any case, the staff considers that the use of Engineering Judgment implies a logical thought process that supports the judgment. When applying Engineering Judgment, and there is doubt regarding whether to report or not, it is DAECs policy to make the report.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 6 of 59 3.1 IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION EVENTS NOTE Attachment 3 provides a summary of events that require immediate notification to state, local and federal authorities.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 8 of 59 3.2 REPORTABLE EVENTS (WRITTEN NOTIFICATIONS) 3.2.1 LICENSEE EVENT REPORT (LER)
NOTE Section 50.73 requires submittal of an LER within 60 days after the discovery of a reportable event. Many reportable events are discovered when they occur. However, if the event is discovered at some later time, the discovery date is when the reportability clock starts under 10 CFR 50.73. Discovery date is generally the date when the event was discovered rather than the date when an evaluation of the event is completed. For example, if a technician sees a problem, but a delay occurs before an engineer or supervisor has a chance to review the situation, the discovery date (which starts the 60-day clock) is the date the technician sees a problem.
In some cases, such as discovery of an existing but previously unrecognized condition, it may be necessary to undertake an evaluation in order to determine if an event or condition is reportable. If so, the guidance provided in Generic Letter 91-18, Information to Licensees Regarding Two NRC Inspection Manual Sections on Resolution of Degraded and Nonconforming Conditions and on Operability which applies primarily to operability determinations, is appropriate for reportability determinations as well. This guidance indicates that, whenever reasonable expectation that the equipment in question is operable no longer exists, or significant doubts begin to arise, appropriate actions, including reporting, should be taken.
(1) An LER (NRC Form 366) shall be prepared by the Licensing Department and submitted to the NRC within 60 days after discovery and/or classification as reportable, for the following events. Unless otherwise specified, only those events which occurred within 3 years of the date of discovery are reportable:
(a) The completion of any plant shutdown required by the plants Technical Specifications. (50.73(a)(2)(i)(A))
(b) Any operation or condition prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications, except when:
(i) The Technical Specification is administrative in nature; (ii) The event consisted solely of a case of a late surveillance test where the oversight was corrected, the test was performed, and the equipment was found to be capable of performing its specified safety functions; or (iii) The Technical Specification was revised prior to discovery of the event such that the operation or condition was no longer prohibited at the time of discovery of the event. (50.73(a)(2)(i)(B).
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 9 of 59 (c) Any operation or condition prohibited by the DAEC operating license. (Administrative Requirement NG-91-4028)
(d) Any deviation from Tech Specs authorized pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(x).
(50.73(a)(2)(i)(C))
(e) Any event or condition that resulted in:
(i) The condition of the nuclear power plant, including its principal safety barriers, being seriously degraded; or (ii) The nuclear power plant being in an unanalyzed condition that significantly degraded plant safety. 50.73(a)(2)(ii)
(f) Any natural phenomenon or other external condition that posed an actual threat to the safety of the nuclear power plant or significantly hampered site personnel in the performance of duties necessary for the safe operation of the plant. (50.73(a)(2)(iii))
NOTE Excess Flow Check Valves (XFVs) have, in the past tripped when returning instruments to service or performing instrument valve manipulations. Unless in response to an actual system leak, XFV trips as described above are not considered reportable under the following system actuation criteria.
(g) Any event or condition that resulted in manual or automatic actuation of any of the specific plant systems listed in (h) below, except when:
- 1. The actuation resulted from and was part of a preplanned sequence during testing or reactor operation; or
- 2. The actuation was invalid and:
- a. Occurred while the system was properly removed from service; or
- b. Occurred after the safety function had been already completed.(50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A).
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 10 of 59 NOTE 10CFR50.73(a)(1) allows a 60-day telephone report to be made (instead of a written LER) for invalid actuations of any of the following systems except for RPS actuations when the reactor is critical.
(h) 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(iv)(B) lists 9 types of systems for both PWR and BWR reactor plants. The following list of DAEC specific systems and system modes of operation is provided to define the plant systems to which this reporting requirement applies at DAEC:
(i) RPS*
(ii) PCIS affecting valves in more than one system or more than one MSIV (iii) HPCI (iv) ADS (v) RHR-LPCI (vi) Core Spray (vii) RCIC (viii) SBDG(s)
(ix) RHR-Drywell Sprays (x) RHR-Torus Sprays (xi) RHR-Torus Cooling (xii) Drywell Cooling (xiii) RHRSW**
(xiv) ESW**
(xv) RWS**
- See attachment 4 to this procedure for a summary table of RPS actuation reporting.
- only applicable to 10 CFR 50.73
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 11 of 59 NOTE An unplanned inoperable condition or LCO entry for the RCIC system is not reportable pursuant to 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(v) or its related 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(v) requirement. (Reference 23)
Events covered in paragraph (i) below may include one or more procedural errors, equipment failures, and/or discovery of design, analysis, fabrication, construction, and/or procedural inadequacies. However, individual component failures need not be reported pursuant to paragraph 50.73(a)(2)(v) if redundant equipment in the same system was operable and available to perform the required safety function.

- Control the release of radioactive material; or
- Mitigate the consequences of an accident. (50.73(a)(2)(vii))
(k) Any airborne radioactivity release that, when averaged over a time period of one hour, resulted in airborne radionuclide concentrations in an unrestricted area that exceeded 20 times the applicable concentration limits specified in Appendix B to Part 20, table 2, column 1. (50.73(a)(2)(viii)(A))
(l) Any liquid effluent release that, when averaged over a period of one hour, exceeds 20 times the applicable concentrations specified in Appendix B to Part 20, table 2, column 2 at the point of entry into the receiving waters (i.e. unrestricted area) for all radionuclides except tritium and dissolved noble gases. (50.73(a)(2)(viii)(B))
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 12 of 59 (m) Any event or condition that as a result of a single cause could have prevented the fulfillment of a safety function for two or more trains or channels in different systems that are needed to:
- Shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition;
- Remove residual heat;
- Control the release of radioactive material; or
- Mitigate the consequences of an accident. (50.73(a)(2)(ix)(A)).
(n) Events covered in paragraph (m) above may include cases of procedural error, equipment failures, and/or discovery of a design, analysis, fabrication, construction, and/or procedural inadequacy However, an event is not required to be reported under this specific criterion if the event results from:
- A shared dependency among trains or channels that is a natural and expected consequence of the approved plant design; or
- Normal and expected wear or degradation.(50.73(a)(2)(ix)(B).
(o) Any event that posed an actual threat to the safety of the plant or significantly hampered site personnel in the performance of duties necessary for the safe operation of the plant including fires, toxic gas releases, or radioactive releases.
(50.73(a)(2)(x))
(p) Any event which meets the one-hour reportability criteria of 10 CFR 73.71, as detailed in Security Procedure 11. (Safeguards) (See Attachments 2 and 3.)
NOTE Per 10 CFR 73.71, duplicate reports are not required for events that are also reportable in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73.
(2) Written Licensee Event Reports shall be submitted to the NRC on the "Licensee Event Report" form (NRC Form 366) in accordance with 10 CFR 50.73(b) and NUREG 1022.
(3) All written LERs shall be reviewed by the On-Site Review Group and the Plant Manager prior to NRC submittal.
(4) All written LERs shall be reviewed by the Safety Committee. (This review is usually after the LER has been mailed.). LERs reported via a 60-day phone call under 50.73 (a)(2)(iv),
(invalid actuations) do not require Safety Committee review.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL PROCEDURE ACP 1402.3 REGULATORY REPORTING ACTIVITIES Rev. 38 Page 13 of 59 (5) LERs reported via a 60-day phone call under 50.73 (a)(2)(iv), (invalid actuations), may be called in using NRC Form 361, and do not require On-Site Review Group or Plant Manager reviews.
(6) Security-related LERs are still required to be submitted within 60 days and shall be stamped "Safeguards Information," if they contain such information.
3.2.2 10 CFR 72 EVENT REPORT NOTE Section 72.75 requires submittal of a written report within 60 days after the discovery of a reportable events (b)(1), (c)(1), (c)(2), and (d)(1). Many reportable events are discovered when they occur. However, if the event is discovered at some later time, the discovery date is when the reportability clock starts under 10 CFR 72.75. Discovery date is generally the date when the event was discovered rather than the date when an evaluation of the event is completed. For example, if a technician sees a problem, but a delay occurs before an engineer or supervisor has a chance to review the situation, the discovery date (which starts the 60 day clock) is the date the technician sees the problem.
In some cases, such as discovery of an existing but previously unrecognized condition, it may be necessary to undertake an evaluation in order to determine if an event or condition is reportable. Whenever reasonable expectation that the equipment in question is operable no longer exists, or significant doubts begin to arise, appropriate actions, including reporting, should be taken.
Written reports prepared pursuant to other regulations may be submitted to fulfill the Part 72 reporting requirement if the reports contain all the necessary information and the appropriate distribution is made.
Reports required under 10 CFR 73.71 need not be duplicated under requirements of 10 CFR 72.74.
(1) A written report shall be prepared by the Licensing Department and submitted to the NRC within 60 days after discovery and/or classification as reportable for the following events:
(a) A defect in any storage structure, system, or component which is important to safety.
(b) A significant reduction in the effectiveness of any storage confinement system during use.
