An NRC-identified
Severity Level IV non-cited violation (
NCV) was identified for an inadequate
10 CFR 50.59 evaluation. The licensee proceduralized manual actions in place of automatic actions to close the door to an adjacent office to maintain the main control room (
MCR) pressure boundary
operable without prior NRC review and approval. Violations of
10 CFR 50.59 potentially impact the NRCs ability to perform its regulatory function. Therefore, this finding was subject to traditional enforcement. This finding was determined to be of very low safety significance because the door only impacted the radiological response of the
MCR, the door was capable of being closed, and procedural guidance was in place to close the door. In accordance with the
NRC Enforcement Policy, Supplement I.D.5, this finding was determined to be a
Severity Level IV violation. This violation has been entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report (CR) 2006112331.
