Title | Non Conservative Control Room Radiological Habitability Assessment |
Description | The team identified a finding of very-low safety significance (Green) and an associated NCV of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, for the licensee failure to use a technically appropriate analytical methodology in the control room radiological habitability calculation. Specifically, the licensee used a methodology that inappropriately characterized the control room heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system outside air intake design resulting in a calculated control room dose following a loss of coolant accident that exceeded the applicable limit. The licensee captured this issue in their CAP as AR 02742442, completed an operability evaluation, and issued an NRC event notification. The performance deficiency was determined to be more-than-minor because it was associated with the Barrier Integrity cornerstone attribute of design control and affected the cornerstone objective of providing reasonable assurance that physical design barriers protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. Specifically, the performance deficiency resulted in the control room expected dose following a loss of coolant accident to exceed the applicable limits prompting an operability evaluation. The finding screened as of very-low safety significance (Green) because it only represented a degradation of the radiological barrier function provided for the control room. Specifically, the finding did not affect the control room barrier function against smoke or a toxic atmosphere. The team did not identify a cross-cutting aspect associated with this finding because it was not confirmed to reflect current performance due to the age of the performance deficiency. Specifically, the affected calculations were performed more than 3 years ago. |
