| Title | Failure to Report a Safety System Functional Failure |
| Description | The inspectors identified a noncited violation of 10 CFR 50.73, Licensee Event Report System, associated with the licensees failure to submit a licensee event report within 60 days following discovery of an event meeting the reportability criteria as specified. Specifically, on September 22, 2009, the licensee completed their analysis of an issue associated with degradation of the latching mechanism of a station high energy line break door. The licensee determined that an unanalyzed condition may have existed for the period that the door was unlatched. The licensee reported the unanalyzed condition per 10 CFR 50.73. The licensee further determined that, due to this door latch issue, a main feedwater pipe critical crack high energy line break event would force the door open which would create a harsh environment in the adjoining emergency feedwater pump room, which would result in both trains of emergency feedwater being inoperable. The licensee determined that this was a safety system functional failure. Based on this, the inspectors determined that this condition was reportable per 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(v) since this resulted in a condition which affected both trains of a system described in the Safety Analysis Report that was needed to mitigate the consequences of an accident. Although the licensee submitted the licensee event report indicating that Unit 1 was in an unanalyzed condition, they failed to report the safety system functional failure aspect. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as Condition Report CR-ANO-C-2009-2590 |
