| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | Technical Specification 5.4.1 requires written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained for procedures recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, of this document recommends procedures for assuring safe operation. The licensee established EN-OP-115, Conduct of Operations, Revision 9, Section 4.1.b, to address the requirement that station management is informed in a timely manner of conditions which may affect safety. Contrary to the above, on October 23, 2010, the on-duty operators did not inform station management in a timely manner when the on-duty ATC-RO left his watch station without permission or conducting a proper turnover. The licensee immediately assigned another on-shift operator to assume the vacant position; however, when the ATC-RO returned to the control room several minutes later, he was allowed to re-assume the watch without an evaluation by the licensee addressing the individuals ability to be fully focused on plant safety and the responsibilities of a licensed operator. Since Operating Department management was not informed in excess of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> later, the individual was allowed to stand an on-shift watch the next night. After management was made aware of the incident, several corrective actions were taken in order to provide assurance of the individuals ability to perform license duties. This was documented in CR PLP-2010-05662 and also evaluated by an ACE CR-PLP-2010-06259. The failure to inform management in a timely manner and ensure corrective actions were implemented was a performance deficiency as defined in IMC 0612, Power Reactor Inspection Reports, Appendix B, Issue Screening. The inspectors determined that the finding was more than minor because if left uncorrected this could have the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. The inspectors concluded the finding was of very low safety significance because adequate staffing was immediately available and no significant operator errors occurred. |
