| Title | Failure to Follow Procedure for Post Maintenance Testing |
| Description | The inspectors reviewed a self-revealing, non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, associated with the licensees failure to follow Special Procedure GEH-TP-116, Procedure for the Operation and Maintenance of the REM*TAKE-2/D-100 Modified REM*TAKE 2, Revision 3, for postmaintenance testing following corrective maintenance. Specifically, the licensee did not follow post-maintenance testing requirements associated with the calibration of the bleeder valve for the REM*TAKE-2/D-100 tool following corrective maintenance to address water intrusion. This resulted in the bleeder valve being misadjusted and nullifying the fail-safe feature of the REM*TAKE-2/D-100 tool. With the fail-safe nullified, Control Rod Blade 30-47 became disengaged from the REM*TAKE-2/D-100 tool and dropped onto the reactor core top guide when the supplemental employee inadvertently pressed the disengage button. No reactor fuel was damaged as indicated by normal radiation levels and air samples on the refuel floor and reactor water coolant samples. The licensees immediate corrective actions for the event was to suspended all in-vessel maintenance activities and remove REM*Take-2/D-100 grapple from service and determined functionality of the tool. The licensee entered this deficiency into their corrective action program for resolution as Condition Report CR-CNS-2014-06809. The licensees failure to follow the post-maintenance testing requirements in Special Procedure GEH-TP-116 was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it was associated with the human performance attribute of the Barrier Integrity Cornerstone and affected the associated objective of maintaining functionality of fuel cladding. Specifically, with the fail-safe nullified, Control Rod Blade 30-47 became disengaged from the REM*TAKE-2/D-100 tool and dropped onto the reactor core top guide when a supplemental employee inadvertently pressed the disengage button. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix G, Attachment 1, Shutdown Operations Significance Determination Process Phase 1 Initial Screening and Characterization of Findings, dated May 09, 2014, inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding did not impact the fuel barrier because it: (1) does not increase the potential for failure of the freeze seal or if unmitigated have the potential to cause a disruption of residual heat removal/decay heat removal or a loss of inventory event; (2) does not involve two or more adjacent control rods with the potential to, or actually, add postive reactivity; and (3) does not degrade the ability to isolate a drain down or leakage path. The finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance associated with the field presence component because the licensee failed to ensure supervisory and management oversight of work activities including contractors and supplemental personnel [H.2]. |
