| Title | Failure to Correct a Nonconforming Condition with the Standby Diesel Generator Inlet Plenum Turning Vanes |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI, Corrective Action, which states, in part, that Measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality, such as failures, malfunctions, deficiencies, deviations, defective material and equipment, and nonconformances, are promptly identified and corrected. Specifically, from November 3, 1988, until March 6, 2010, actions to correct known design deficiencies on the left and right banks intercooler inlet plenums of both the division 1 and 2 standby diesel generators were not fully implemented. The design deficiency, identified by the vendor, could result in intercooler tube failure and jacket water leakage. The finding was entered into the licensees corrective action program as Condition Report CR-GGN-2013-02631. The failure to correct a nonconforming condition in the division 1 and 2 standby diesel generators inlet plenums is a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor and therefore a finding because it adversely affected the Mitigating Systems Cornerstone attribute of equipment performance and affected the cornerstone objective to ensure the availability, reliability, and capability of systems that respond to initiating events to prevent undesirable consequences (i.e., core damage), and if left uncorrected, the performance deficiency had the potential to lead to a more significant safety concern. Specifically, the licensees failure to implement corrective actions to resolve a known design deficiency of the intercooler inlet plenums could have resulted in either the division 1 or 2 standby diesel generator failing to perform its safety function. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix A, The Significance Determination Process (SDP) for Findings At-Power, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green), because the finding was a design deficiency affecting a mitigating systems structure, system, or component that did not lose operability or functionality. The finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect because the most significant contributor to the performance deficiency did not reflect current licensee performance. |
