APPENDIX A Southern California Edison Company P. 0. Box 800 2244 Walnut Grove Avenue Rosemead, California 91770 Docket No. 50-206 License No. DPR-13 Notice of Violation Based on the results of an NRC inspection on April 5 - May 2, 1980, it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with conditions of your NRC Facility License No. DPR-13 as indicated below.

A. Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures and administrative policies shall be established, implemented and main tained that meet or exceed the requirements and recommendations of Appendix "A" of USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.33 Rev. 1. Paragraph 9.c.(7) of Regulatory Guide 1.33 recommends written procedures for the replacement of neutron detectors. The facility Test Procedure No. S-II.1.11, Ref. 2, for replacing neutron detectors was written pursuant to these requirements.

Contrary to the above requirements:

1. On April 16, 1980, Facility Test Procedure No. S-II.1.11 was not implemented in the replacement of the source range instrumentation detectors.
2. On April 24, 1980, the detectors for the source range instrumentation became erratic and were replaced pursuant to the required procedure with the exception that high voltage plateau curves were not prepared and used as required by Step R of the procedure.

This is an infraction.

B. Technical Specification 6.10.1.b requires that records and logs of principal maintenance activities, inspections, repair and replace ment of principal items of equipment related to nuclear safety be retained for a period of at least five years.

Contrary to the above requirement, the records required by Test Procedure S-II.1.11 cited in Item A, above, relating to replacement of detectors for the power range instrumentation, channel number 1205, on February 4, 1980, were unavailable on April 2 and apparently not retained as required.

This is a deficiency.

8007170) ";.e 7.3I

C. Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations Part 20.203.b, requires that each radiation area (defined in 10 CFR 20.202) shall be conspicuously posted with a sign or signs bearing the radiation caution symbol and the words:

CAUTION:

RADIATION AREA.

Contrary to the above, on April 17, 1980, radiation dose readings of 8 millirem per hour were measured outside a posted temporary rope barrier surrounding a spent resin cask located on a truck.

The 8 millirem per hour radiation area was not conspicuously posted as required by 10CFR part 20.203.b.

This is an infraction.
