Title | Failure to Adequately Implement Surveillance Frequency Program for the Deferral of a Technical Specification Surveillance |
Description | Green. A finding of very low safety significance and an associated NCV of Technical Specification (TS) 5.5.19.b, Surveillance Frequency Program, were identified by the inspectors for the licensees failure to implement the requirements contained in the surveillance frequency control program when making a change to the specified frequency of TS Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.3.1.11. On May 3, 2017, the licensee improperly deferred a TS required surveillance through the preventive maintenance deferral process due to a belief that it was a preventive maintenance activity and not an activity supporting a TS SR. The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program (CAP) as Issue Report (IR) 4009050 with an action to re-establish the surveillance at an 18-month frequency and to perform it before the end of the Unit 2 refueling outage (RFO) A2R19. The performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because if left uncorrected it could lead to a more significant safety concern. The finding screened as being of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not result in the loss of operability or functionality of any system, structure, or component (SSC). The inspectors determined that this finding had a cross-cutting component in the area of human performance, work management aspect, because the licensee failed to utilize a work process that included proper coordination with different groups or job activities. Specifically, licensee personnel conducting the deferral did not coordinate the activity with personnel in either the operations or regulatory assurance departments. Knowledgeable personnel in either of these station organizations could have identified that the wrong process for deferral was being utilized. [H.5] |
