| description = Title 10 CFR 20.1601 requires control for access to high radiation areas (HRAs) and subpart (c) allows a licensee to apply to the NRC for approval of alternative methods for controlling HRA access. At Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, the NRC-approved alternate methods for controlling access to HRAs include station TS 5.7. Specifically, TS 5.7.1.b for HRA access requires, in part, that Access to, and activities in each such area shall be controlled by means of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP)... Additionally, TS 5.7.1.e for HRA access requires, in part, that ...entry into such areas shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them. Contrary to the above, on October 26, 2013, a worker willfully entered a posted and barricaded HRA inside the Unit-2 containment spray pump room on a RWP that did not authorize HRA entry and without being knowledgeable of the radiological conditions prior to entry. Corrective actions for this issue included performance management of the individuals involved in accordance with station management protocols. Because this violation was Severity Level IV, and it was entered into the licensees CAP as CAP 1403583, this violation is being treated as a NCV consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.
