Title | Inadequate Inspection of Raw Water Side of Containment Spray Heat Exchangers |
Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, for the failure to provide adequate documented instructions for inspection of the containment spray heat exchangers. Preventive maintenance (PM) procedures associated with these inspections failed to provide for an adequate inspection of the ERCW side (shell side) of these heat exchangers. Consequently, the heat transfer capability of these heat exchangers has not been periodically verified through either testing or adequate visual inspection. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as PER 236318. Planned corrective actions include the development and implementation of a single-tube method for thermal performance testing of the heat exchangers in lieu of inspection. The finding was determined to be greater than minor because it was associated with the equipment performance attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences, since the heat transfer capability of these heat exchangers has not been periodically verified through either testing or adequate visual inspection. Using IMC 0609, Significance Determination Process, Attachment 4, Phase 1 - Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) since the finding did not represent an actual loss of safety function. The cause of this finding was determined to have a cross-cutting aspect of Corrective Action Program Issue Identification in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution associated with the Corrective Action Program component, in that the evaluation of PERs in 2009 on the subject of CS heat exchanger inspection failed to identify the need to resolve the discrepancy between the scope of the program PMs and the implementing procedure requirement for CS heat exchanger shell side inspection. Thus, the licensee failed to completely and accurately identify issues in the corrective action program P.1(a). (Section 1R07 |
