APPENDIX A Southern California Edison Company P. 0. Box 800 2244 Walnut Grove Ave.

Rosemead, California 91770 Docket No. 50-206 License No. DPR-13 Notice of Violation Based on the results of an NRC inspection on March 1-April 4, 1980, it appears that two 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 3.3.lA.(l)h states that the reactor shall not be maintained critical unless two salt water cooling pumps are operable, or one salt water cooling pump and the auxiliary salt water cooling pump are operable.

Technical Specification 3.3.lB(6) states that during critical operation, maintenance shall be allowed on one of the two required salt water cool ing pumps or auxiliary salt water cooling pump for a period of time not longer than 72 consecutive hours.

Contrary to the above, on March 10, 1980, from 9:25 PM to 9:56 PM, the reactor was operated at or near 100% of rated power with the two salt water cooling pumps and the auxiliary salt water cooling pump inoperable.

Also from 9:56 PM on March 10, 1980, to 12:05 AM on March 11, 1980, the reactor was operated at or near 100% of rated power with both salt water cooling pumps inoperable.

This is an infraction.

B. Technical Specification 6.8.1 states, in part, that:

"Written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained that meet or exceed the requirements and recommendations of Sections 5.1 and 5.3 of ANSI N18.7-1976, Administrative Contents for Nuclear Power Plants; Appendix 'A' of USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 1, Quality Assurance Program Requirements (Operation);...."

Emergency Operating Instruction S-3-5.34, Rev. 0, February 1, 1980, Section 3, states that if both salt water cooling pumps become inoperable and the auxiliary salt water cooling pump cooling is inadequate, trip the unit.
