| description = Watts Bar Nuclear Plant TS 3.6.12 states that the ice condenser inlet doors, intermediate deck doors, and top deck doors shall be operable and closed. TS 3.6.12 Condition B requires that maximum ice bed temperature is verified to be less than 27 degrees F once per four hours (Action B1) when one or more doors is inoperable. Contrary to the above, four intermediate deck doors were inoperable from September 8, 2015 until September 17, 2015 and required action B1 of TS 3.6.12 Condition B was not performed. WBN maintenance personnel erected scaffolding on September 8, 2015 which blocked four intermediate deck doors in the Unit 1 upper ice condenser, which made the doors inoperable since the scaffolding would have prevented them from opening. The TS implications of the scaffold were not immediately recognized and therefore the required TS action B1 was not performed. The licensee identified this condition on September 16, 2015 and took immediate actions to enter TS LCO 3.6.12, Condition B, requiring that maximum ice bed temperature is verified to be less than 27 degrees F once per four hours (Action B1) and to restore the doors to operable status in 14 days (Action B2). The scaffold was removed on September 17, 2015; therefore, the 14-day completion time of TS 3.6.12 was not exceeded. A review of ice bed temperatures between September 8, 2015 and September 17, 2015 showed that ice bed temperatures never exceeded 27 degrees F as required by TS 3.6.12 Action B1. Using IMC 0609, Appendix A, Exhibit 2 (Mitigating Systems); this finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green) because it did not result in an actual loss of function of at least a single train of equipment for greater than its technical specification allowed outage time. This violation was entered into the WBN CAP under CR 1082469.
