24-HOUR NOTIFICATION - [DELETED] CRITICALITY DETECTOR FAILED ROUTINE TEST At approximately 19:00 P.M. on May 27th, one of two criticality detectors for [DELETED] failed a routine source check. The failure resulted in the detector not being able to give a High alarm, which resulted in a loss of criticality detector coverage for [DELETED] at the [DELETED] at BWX Technologies. This situation presents no risk to the public or workers, since the [DELETED] have not had any fuel since February 20, 2001. The last time the [DELETED] criticality detectors were source checked (successfully) was on April 11, 2004. However, [DELETED] was authorized for fuel operations, therefore, criticality detectors were required to be functional. This loss of criticality detector coverage is required to be reported to the NRC within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per 10CFR70.24 and 10CFR70.50(b)(2).
