Title | URI 05000298/2007011-07, Fuel Oil Storage Tank Required Submergence To Prevent Vortexing And Available Volume Are Marginal Without Accounting For Instrument Uncertainties |
Description | The team identified a Green noncited violation of CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the failure of the licensee to verify the adequacy of design for the diesel fuel oil transfer system. Specifically, the licensee failed to demonstrate an adequate supply of fuel oil was available in the tanks to support the safety function of the emergency diesel generators because the licensee failed to consider the potential for vortex formation in the two diesel fuel oil storage tanks and the two day tanks and net positive suction head of the associated pumps. This finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program under Condition Report CNS-2010-5763. The failure to establish appropriate design controls for the safety-related diesel fuel oil transfer pump net positive suction head calculation was a performance deficiency. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the design control attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and adversely affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of the diesel fuel oil transfer system to respond to events and prevent undesirable consequences. Using the Manual Chapter 0609, Attachment 4, Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the issue screened as having very low safety significance (Green) because it was not a design or qualification deficiency and did not represent a loss of safety function. The licensee performed an evaluation which determined that the system was capable of meeting its design function. This finding did not have a crosscutting aspect because the most significant contributor did not reflect current licensee performance. |
