| Title | Inadequate Maintenance Rule Monitoring of the Leak Detection System Performance |
| Description | The inspectors identified a NCV of 10 CFR 50.65, Requirements for Monitoring the Effectiveness of Maintenance at Nuclear Power Plants, under section (a)(1) of the rule for failing to properly monitor the leak detection system (LDS) to assure that the Riley temperature modules at Unit 2 were capable of fulfilling their intended functions. Specifically, Constellation did not correctly account for maintenance-related functional failures and plant level events during a 2-year assessment period resulting in a failure to transition the LDS into an (a)(1) status at Unit 2. Constellation entered this issue into their CAP as CR-2013-002015 and assessed the LDS for transition into (a)(1) status. This finding is more than minor because it is associated with the equipment performance attribute of the Mitigating Systems cornerstone and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences. Specifically, the failures of the Riley temperature modules caused safety system isolations to occur which impacted the availability of these systems. This finding was evaluated in accordance with IMC 0609.04, Initial Characterization of Findings, and Exhibit 1 of IMC 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process for Findings At-Power, issued June 19, 2012. The inspectors determined this finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because this finding did not represent an actual loss of system safety function, did not represent an actual loss of function of at least a single train for greater than its technical specification (TS) allowed outage time, and did not represent an actual loss of function of one or more non-TS trains of equipment designated as high safety significant in accordance with Constellations maintenance rule program for greater than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution, Corrective Action Program, because Constellation failed to thoroughly evaluate the failures of the Riley temperature modules to identify concerns with reliability in accordance with the maintenance rule. |
