Title | Inadequate Reactor Vessel Head Removal Procedure |
Description | The inspectors documented a self-revealing, Green non-cited violation (NCV) of Unit 1 Technical Specification (TS) 6.8.1, Procedures and Programs, for inadequate reactor vessel (RV) head removal procedures that led to the reactor coolant system (RCS) level lowering out of the procedural band during detensioning with lowered inventory and short time-to-boil conditions. PSEGs C/As included restoring level within operating bands, completing an apparent cause evaluation, revising associated procedures and entering this matter in their CAP as NOTF 20778011The issue was more than minor since it was associated with the RCS procedural quality attribute of the Barrier Integrity cornerstone and adversely affected its objective to provide reasonable assurance that physical design barriers (i.e., fuel cladding and the RCS) protect the public from radionuclide releases caused by accidents or events. The finding was evaluated using IMC 0609, Appendix B, dated September 22, 2015, and screened to Green via IMC 0609 Appendix G, Attachment 1, dated May 9, 2014, based on not being a loss of level control, that is, an inadvertent loss of 2 feet of RCS inventory while not in mid-loop.The actual drop in level was less than one foot. The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in PI&R, Evaluation, in that PSEG did not thoroughly evaluate this issue to ensure that the resolution addressed the causes and extent of condition commensurate with its safety significance. Specifically, PSEG did not properly classify, prioritize, and evaluate the Unit 2 RCS level transient (April 2017) according to its safety significance so that the associated Unit 1 procedures were revised prior to their use during the same evolution in a subsequent RV detensioning (October 2017).
