| Title | Failure to Follow Scaffold Procedure Threatens ERCW Pump Operability |
| Description | The inspectors identified a NCV of Technical Specification 5.7.1, Procedures, for the licensees failure to properly implement Maintenance Procedure MMTP-102, Erection of Scaffolds/Temporary Work Platforms and Ladders, Revision 7. Specifically, a temporary scaffold erected in close proximity to an essential raw cooling water (ERCW) pump was not adequately restrained to prevent interaction with the pump motor during a seismic event. The licensee entered the issue into the corrective action program as Problem Evaluation Report (PER) 588895, removed the subject scaffold, and implemented corrective actions to inspect all scaffolding in Seismic Category I areas for similar conditions. The licensees failure to erect the scaffold in accordance with procedures in the vicinity of safety-related equipment was a performance deficiency. The inspectors reviewed IMC 0612 and determined that the finding was more than minor because, if left uncorrected, scaffold interaction with the pump motor during a seismic event could render the pump inoperable. The finding was associated with the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone. Using the Phase I screening worksheet of IMC 0609, the inspectors determined that the finding was of very low safety significance (Green) because no actual loss of safety function occurred and the finding did not screen as potentially risk significant due to external events. The cause of the finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of effective supervisory/management oversight in the Work Practices component. It was directly related to the licensee not ensuring adequate supervisory and management oversight of work activities, including contractors that erected the scaffold and licensee engineering personnel that reviewed and approved the deficient scaffold installation that could adversely affect nuclear safety. |
