Contrary to the above, the licensee's Administrative Maintenance and Equip-ment Control Procedures did not provide acministrative controls for returning safety-related equipment to its nomal ocerating status.
C.
Section 5.1.6.1 of ANSI N18.7 - 1972 requires acministrative control pro-cedures for evaluating failures by virtue of the statement:
'
"When failures occur, the cause shall be evaluated.
Experience with the failed equipment and similar ccmconents shall be reviewed to detemine whether a replacement comoonent of the same type can be expected to perform its function reliably."
Contrary to the above, the licensee's Maintenance Program control procedures do not provide Administrative Controls for evaluating failure experiences.
This constitutes a Severity Level V Violation (Sucplement I.E).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Nebraska Public Pcwer District is hereby required to submit to this office within twenty-five days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including (1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective-steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full ccmpliance will be achieved.
Under the authority of Section 182 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, this response shall be submitted under oath or affi mation.
