Summary
The Event Fact Sheets written from January 1985 through mid August 1988 were reviewed to determine their root causes. The review group represented many of the technical disciplines present in plant operation. The review was initiated as an internal critique aimed at maximizing the ``lessons learned`` from the event reporting system. The root causes were subjected to a Pareto analysis to determine the significant causal factor groups. Recommendations for correction of the high frequency causal factors were then developed and presented to the FFTF Plant management. In general, the distributions of the causal factors were found to closely follow the industry averages. The impacts of the events were also studied and it was determined that we generally report events of a level of severity below that of the available studies. Therefore it is concluded that the recommendations for corrective action are ones to improve the overall quality of operations and not to correct significant operational deficiencies. 17 figs.
