| Title | Failure to Evaluate Long-Term Scaffolds in Accordance with Procedures |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance and an associated non-cited violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings, when licensee personnel failed to adequately implement procedure EN-MA-133, Control of Scaffolding. Specifically, multiple examples were identified of scaffolds installed in the plant for greater than 90 days that had not undergone process applicability determinations, were not appropriately documented in the scaffold control log, and/or did not contain proper tags. The licensee documented the issue in their CAP as CR-PLP-2014-2646, Two Scaffolds Near Safety-Related Equipment Not Being Controlled as Long-Term, dated April 17, 2014; conducted an extent-of-condition review of the entire scaffold log and identified additional discrepancies; completed the required process applicability determinations; and re-inspected scaffolds that had been categorized as long-term. The inspectors determined that the performance deficiency was more than minor because it was similar to Example 4.a) of IMC 0612, Appendix E, Examples of Minor Issues. This example described an engineering evaluation that was not performed for scaffolding erected near safety-related equipment and stated that it would be a more than minor issue if the licensee routinely failed to perform the engineering evaluations. For this specific finding, there were multiple examples of process applicability determinations not being performed within the procedurally required timeframe. The finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not affect the operability/functionality of structures, systems and components (SSCs) and all required safety functions were maintained. This finding was associated with the cross-cutting aspect of Teamwork in the Human Performance area. Specifically, licensee and supplemental individuals and work groups did not sufficiently communicate and coordinate work activities associated with maintaining the scaffold control log or documentation related to scaffolding installed in the plant. The workers also did not understand how to account for time during refueling and forced outages when determining the long-term status of scaffolds, which could have been resolved with input from other work groups. |
