During a plant tour on October 27, 1980 at 10:46 a.m., seals were found missing from valves V-2212 and V-2213, Steam Water Dump Isolation Valves for Loop 1, although the valves were in the open position as required
!
by Overall Plant Operating Procedure I (OPOP I).
This procedure con-tains the sealed valve checklist in Section B.31 which requires certain valves to be sealed in position prior to plant startup.
This checklist had last been completed on September 24, 1980 and no reason for a change is known to have occurred.
The plant power level at the time the missing seals were discovered was approximately 4%.
The licensee replaced the seals upon notification.
Technical Specification AC 7.4.a requires in part that " Written procedures shall be established, implemented and maintained.
" and OPOP I,
..,
section B, requires that certain valves be locked in position prior to plant startup.
Section B.21.b contains the sealed valve list for System 22 (Secondary Coolant System).
Contrary to these requirements the valves noted were found not sealed.
The failure to fulfill these requirements were discussed with the licensee at which time it was pointed out that this was an apparent item of noncompliance (8012-1).
The inspector had no additional questions in this area.
