| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | TS LCO 3.3.1.1, Condition B, requires that with one RPS instrument function with one or more required channels inoperable, action shall be taken within six hours to place a channel or trip system in a trippedcondition within six hours. Additionally, TS LCO 3.3.4.2, Condition A, requires that with one or more required end of cycle (EOC) recirculation pump trip (RPT) instrument channels inoperable, action be taken to place the channel in a tripped condition within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> if the channel is not restored to operable status. Contrary to the above, PBAPS determined that the A and B channels of the Unit 2 turbine control valve (TCV) fast closure pressure sensing instruments were inoperable for a period of time greater than allowed by TS. Specifically, the as-found trip setpoints of the A and B sensing instruments were identified to be below the allowable trip setting during surveillance testing on October 1, 2012. PBAPS Unit 2 was defueled to support the 19th RFO during performance of the ST. Both instruments were replaced and calibrated to within acceptable limits prior to reactor startup. The inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) in accordance with Section C of Exhibit 2 in Appendix A of IMC 0609, The Significance Determination Process for Findings at Power, because RPS system trip capability was maintained with the C and D instrument channels. Because this finding is of very low safety significance and has been entered into Exelon\'s CAP under IR 1421069, this violation is being treated as a Green NCV consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy. |
