At 1400 on 11/21/06, V.C. Summer Nuclear Station (
VCSNS) determined there was a failure to perform required monitoring of the
Service Water intake structure and embankments within the required 5 year frequency.
This is not a requirement of Technical Specifications, but is required by the VCSNS Operating License NPF-12, Section 2.C(5). This license condition requires that the monitoring interval not exceed 5 years.
Monitoring was last performed 12/04/00 with no adverse consequences noted in the evaluation.
Efforts are underway to schedule the required monitoring as soon as practicable.
An extent-of-condition review will be performed to ensure compliance with all aspects of license condition 2.C(5).
The licensee will notify the NRC Resident Inspector. State and local agencies will also be notified.
