ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Carolina Power & Light Company Docket No.:

50-261 H. B. Robinson License No.: DPR-23 During an NRC inspection conducted on September 13-17 and September 27 October 1, 1993, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," the violation is listed below:

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, requires, in part, that "Activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, and drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions...."

Paragraph 7.0 of Attachment 8.3 to Special Procedure SP-1240, Steam Generator Eddy Current Testing During RFO 15, requires that, "All eddy current test equipment provided by ABB Combustion Engineering shall be certified......

Documentation of calibration will be provided prior to the start of the inspections."

Contrary to the above, on October 1, 1993, Eddy Current Testing was in process on all three steam generators. Onsite equipment certification/calibration documentation for equipment being used on steam generators "A" and "B" had expired and the equipment being used for steam generator "C" had not been certified/calibrated.

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