| description = The inspectors identified an unresolved item (URI) associated with the requirements of Watts Bar Unit 1 technical specification (TS) 3.6.15, Shield Building. Additional inspection is required to determine if the requirements of 3.6.15.B applied during a specific testing alignment. On September 10, 2015, the licensee conducted 0-SI-65-6-A, Emergency Gas Treatment System (EGTS) Train A 10-Hour Operation. During the 10-hour time period of the test when the EGTS was in service, the auxiliary gas building treatment system was also in service for a Unit 2 construction test. This unique ventilation combination is not normally experienced during the 0-SI-65-6-A surveillance. As a result, shield building annulus differential pressure fell below the limit established by TS surveillance requirement (TSSR) 3.6.15.1 limits for the entire duration of the 10-hr EGTS surveillance. TS limiting condition for operation (LCO) 3.6.15.B requires annulus pressure be restored when it is outside of limits with a required completion time of 8-hrs. The licensee considered the note associated with TS LCO 3.6.15.B, which states that the annulus pressure requirement is not applicable during ventilating operations, required annulus entries, or auxiliary building isolations not exceeding one hour in duration. The licensee considered the alignment they were in at the time to be ventilating operations and thus the requirements of TS LCO 3.6.15.B did not apply. The licensee further considered that the note, as written, allowed grace from the annulus pressure requirement for ventilating operations for an unlimited amount of time. The inspectors were concerned about a possible allowance in the TS to have grace from annulus pressure requirements for longer than the allowed LCO required action completion time. Furthermore, a basis for the note and what can be considered ventilating operations was not immediately apparent. Because more information is necessary to evaluate the proper applicability of TS LCO 3.6.15.B and the associated note, future inspection is required to determine if a more than minor performance deficiency or violation exists associated with this issue. Specifically, the inspectors need to determine if a TS compliance issue exists. This is identified as URI 0500390/2015004-04, Shield Building Operability Requirements. | | description = The inspectors identified an unresolved item (URI) associated with the requirements of Watts Bar Unit 1 technical specification (TS) 3.6.15, Shield Building.
