Carolina Power & Light Company (EA 94-205)
H. B. Robinson Steam Electric Plant Unit No. 2 Docket No. 50-261
Subject:
PROPOSED IMPOSITION OF CIVIL PENALTY - $100,000 This is to inform the Commission that a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $100,000 will be issued on or about November 28, 1994, to the Carolina Power & Light Company. The action is based on violations that were indicative of weaknesses in management oversight and attention to detail associated with conducting plant cooldowns. The rate of cooldown of the RCS Pressurizer was not monitored such that Technical Specifications cooldown limits associated with the Pressurizer were exceeded 16 times since 1980. The violations have been classified as a Severity Level III Violation which has a base civil penalty of $50,000. A civil penalty of
$100,000 has been proposed after escalation of 50% for NRC identification and mitigation of 50% for corrective actions.
In addition, the civil penalty was also escalated 100% for prior opportunity to identify and correct the problem, based on the licensee's failure to address the concern after receiving a report from another facility operated by the licensee which warned of the potential for the problem.
It should be noted that the licensee has not been specifically informed of the enforcement action. The schedule of issuance and notification is:
Mailing of Notice November 28, 1994 Telephone Notification of Licensee November 28, 1994 The State of South Carolina will be notified.
The licensee has thirty days from the date of the Notice in which to respond.
Following NRC evaluation of the response, the civil penalty may be remitted, mitigated, or imposed by Order.
