| Title | Failure to Conduct Adequate Surveys of Spent Filters Moved from the Spent Fuel Pool |
| Description | Green . The inspectors reviewed a self -revealed, non- cited violation of 10 CFR 20.1501 resulting from the licensee's failure to conduct radiation surveys necessary to establish appropriate controls to support movement of spent filters from the spent fuel pool to a shipping cask. This issue was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Action Requests 356390 and 358265. The licensees failure to perform surveys necessary to establish appropriate controls to support the movement of filters from the spent fuel pool to a shipping cask was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency was more than minor because it was associated with the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone attribute of program and process and adversely affected the associated cornerstone objective to ensure adequate protection of worker health and safety from exposure to radiation. Specifically, the inadequate radiation surveys resulted in inadequate controls being implemented causing unplanned and unintended personnel dos e. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix C, Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because it did not involve: (1) ALARA planning and controls; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4) an impaired ability to assess dose. The finding had a cross- cutting aspect in the area of human performance, associated with work management, because the organization failed to implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority. Specifically, the licensees organization and work processes failed to include the identification and management of radiological risk commensurate with the spent fuel pool filter project and the need for strict coordination with different groups or job activities [H.5]. |
