ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Carolina Power and Light Company Docket No. 50-261 H. B. Robinson License No. DPR-23 During the NRC inspection conducted on January 11 February 10, 1990, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure For NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1989), the violation is listed below:

Technical Specification 6.5.1.1.1.c requires written procedures be implemented for surveillance and test activities of safety-related equipment.

Written procedure OST-007, Nuclear Instrumentation Comparator Channel, revision 4, provides instructions for testing the nuclear power range monitors.

Step 7.1.6 required only the bistables associated with the channel being tested be placed in the trip mode.

Contrary to the above, written procedure OST-007, step 7.1.6 was not properly implemented in that, a bistable associated with nuclear power range channel II was tripped while nuclear power range channel I was being tested. This resulted in a reactor trip.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Carolina Power and Light Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN:

Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555, with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice.
