| Title | Entry into a High Radiation Area without Radiological Briefing |
| Description | The inspectors identified a self-revealing NCV of TS 5.7.1e when workers entered the Unit 2 Fuel Storage Building (FSB) truck bay that was posted and controlled as a high radiation area (HRA) without receiving a briefing on the dose rates prior to entering the HRA. Specifically, on June 6, 2016, two nuclear plant operators (NPOs) entered the Unit 2 FSB truck bay to hang tags on the backup spent fuel pool cooling filters. The NPOs signed in on a HRA radiation work permit (RWP) but did not receive a briefing on the radiological conditions in this work area. After entering the HRA, one worker received an electronic dosimeter dose rate alarm; and subsequently, both workers promptly exited the area. Immediate corrective actions included restricting the access of the two NPOs to the radiologically controlled area (RCA). The issue was entered into Entergys corrective action program (CAP) as CR-IP2-2016-03610. The failure to adhere to a radiological briefing prior to entry into a HRA is a performance deficiency that was reasonably within Entergys ability to foresee and correct. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor based on similar example 6.h in IMC 0612, Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues, and because it adversely affected the Human Performance attribute of the Occupational Radiation Safety cornerstone objective. Specifically, Entergy violated the TS 5.7.1e HRA radiological briefing requirements designed to protect workers from unnecessary radiation exposure. Using IMC 0609, Appendix C, Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not involve: (1) ALARA occupational collective exposure planning and controls, (2) an overexposure, (3) a substantial potential for overexposure, or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose. The inspectors determined that the finding had a cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance, Procedure Adherence, in that the workers did not follow processes, procedures, and work instructions for entering a posted HRA. |
