| Title | Failure to Obtain a License Amendment for a Technical Specification Basis Change |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, Test, and Experiments, for the failure of licensing personnel to obtain a technical specification license amendment for a change made to the technical specification bases concerning the emergency chilled water system.

The finding was reviewed by NRC management and because the violation was determined to be of very low safety significance, was not repetitive or willful, and was entered into the corrective action program, this violation is being treated as a Severity Level IV noncited violation consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy. Since the bases change was made in 1996, the inspectors determined that this was not reflective of current licensee performance and therefore did not have a crosscutting aspect associated with i |
