An NRC-identified
NCV of the McGuire Unit 1 and Unit 2 Renewed Facility Operating License Condition 2.C.4,
FPP, was identified for the licensees failure to adequately control the storage of
transient combustibles in waste receptacles equipped with self-extinguishing fire lids in accordance with the
FPP requirements. The licensee took actions to correct all waste receptacles in the plant that were filled beyond the manufacturers specification or had loosely fitted lids. This condition was placed in the licensees corrective action program. The licensees failure to control the storage of
transient combustibles in accordance with the requirements of NSD-313 was more than minor because it was associated with the
Mitigating Systems cornerstone attribute of Protection Against External Factors (Fire) and adversely affected the cornerstone objective in that the self-extinguishing function was not retained which could allow the spread of the fire and adversely affect mitigating system equipment in the area. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not affect the ability of the reactor to reach and maintain cold shutdown conditions. A cross-cutting aspect was not assigned because the performance deficiency does not reflect current licensee performance.
