| description = The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.7.2, which was the result of a worker entering a high radiation area with dose rates greater than 1 rem/hour without knowing of the dose rates in the area. In response, licensee representatives suspended fuel movement, posted the area as a locked high radiation area, documented the occurrence in the corrective action program as Notification 50478716 and evaluated the occurrence. Entering a high radiation area with dose rates greater than 1 rem/hour without knowing the dose rates in the area was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone attribute of program and process (exposure control) and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring adequate protection of worker health and safety from exposure to radiation because the failure exposed workers to high dose rates. Using the occupational radiation safety significance determination process, the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance because: (1) it was not an as low as is reasonably achievable finding, (2) there was no overexposure, (3) there was no substantial potential for an overexposure, and (4) the ability to assess dose was not compromised. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the human performance area, resources component, because the licensee did not have adequate facilities and equipment in the form of physical or visual barriers to preclude moving fuel into the vicinity of the spent fuel pool door with the transfer canal drained.
