Title | Lead maintenance technician deliberately permitted unqualified contractors to open breakers and hang clearance tags |
Description | Limerick Generating Station Technical Specifications 6.8, Procedures and Programs, requires, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, Appendix A, February 1978, recommends administrative activities, including equipment control (i.e. locking and tagging), be covered by written procedures. Exelon Procedure OP-MA-109-101, Clearance and Tagging, Revision 6, Section 13, Worker Tagout Process, Step 13.1.3 states, Personnel using worker tagout tags shall be qualified in the clearance and tagging process. Contrary to the above, between January and July 2007 and in February 2008, the licensee failed to implement a procedure required by Technical Specification 6.8 when worker tagout tags were used by personnel at Limerick Generating Station who were not qualified in the clearance and tagging process. Specifically, a lead maintenance technician with oversight responsibilities for a contractor group deliberately permitted unqualified contractors to open breakers and hang worker tagout tags |
