| description = A violation of TS 3.3.6.1(A.1), Primary Containment Isolation Instrumentation was identified by the licensee during a review of recent operations logs and CAP documents on September 7, 2015 by on-shift operators. On September 5, 2015, operators performing shiftly TS rounds identified that the Unit 3, A main steam line (MSL) steam flow detector, 3-0261-2A, was reading more than 25 pounds per square inch differential (psid) lower than the other three steam flow detectors on the A MSL contrary to Surveillance Requirement 3.3.6.1.1. This issue was entered into the licensees CAP at this time as IR 2551890, where the on-shift Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) recommended performing DIS 0250-01, Dresden Unit 3 Quarterly Main Steam Line High Flow Switch Calibration and incorrectly assessed TS 3.3.6.1 function 1.d Main Steam Line Flow High as being inoperable but not requiring the failed channel to be placed in trip for the failed steam flow switch. The SRO incorrectly applied the operable logic of two required channels on each MSL per trip system and did not recognize that one failed channel would require entry into TS 3.3.6.1(A.1). TS 3.3.6.1(A.1) requires that operators place the failed channel in trip within 24 hours of discovery. Operations on-shift reviews of recent logs and issue reports identified the missed entry into TS 3.3.6.1(A.1) on September 7, 2015 more than 24 hours later. The missed TS entry was entered into the licensees CAP as IR 2552152. Subsequent performance of DIS 0250-01 identified two additional channels outside of TS required trip values for MSL high steam flow. The failure to enter a required TS action statement when declaring A MSL flow detector 3-0261-2A inoperable was considered a performance deficiency. The finding was determined to be more than minor in accordance with IMC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening, dated September 7, 2012, because if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency would have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, if left uncorrected, a separate single failure could have prevented the safety function of isolating the A MSL on a steam line rupture casualty. The inspectors evaluated the finding using IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, Tables 2 and 3, and Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings at Power, Exhibit 3, Barrier Integrity Screening Questions, dated June 19, 2012. The inspectors answered No to the Appendix A, Exhibit 3 Barrier Integrity Screening Questions, therefore, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green). Licensee corrective actions included disqualifying the SRO from shift duties pending remedial training, performing an apparent cause evaluation concerning the missed TS action statement entry, replacing the failed A MSL flow switch, and calibrating all other channels which were outside the required operating band of DIS 0250-01. | | description = A violation of TS 3.3.6.1(A.1), Primary Containment Isolation Instrumentation was identified by the licensee during a review of recent operations logs and CAP documents on September 7, 2015 by on-shift operators.
