Docket No.:
50-261
H. B. Robinson Unit 2
License No.:
During an NRC inspection conducted on February 5 - March 18, 1995, 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, the violation is listed below:
Technical Specification 6.5.1.1.1, Procedures, Tests, and Experiments,
states that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and
maintained covering the activities recommended in Appendix "A" of
Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 2, February 1978, including the operation of
the service water system, administrative procedures for procedure review
and approval, operation of the auxiliary building ventilation system,
conduct of shift relief and turnover, and the control of Q category
material.
Operating Procedure, OP-903, Service Water System specifies the valve
lineup required for operation of the service water system.
Administrative Procedure, AP-004, Procedure Control provides procedure
review and approval requirements and specifies that changes to plant
operating procedures be accomplished by procedure revisions or temporary
changes.
Operating Procedure, OP-906, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning
requires, in part, that if operators stop the operating reactor
auxiliary building exhaust fan, they then notify E&RC that the auxiliary
building is no longer at a negative pressure.
Operations Management Manual-008, Minimum Equipment List and Shift
Relief Procedure, Rev. 82, requires that the oncoming or offgoing shift
supervisor conduct a pre-shift briefing to ensure that the oncoming crew
is aware of required information, including procedure changes.
Maintenance Management Procedure MMM-028, Control Of Field Issued
Material, delineates the requirements for controlling Q category
material including lubricants, oils, hydraulic fluid, and greases,
including storage and marking.
Contrary to the above:
On February 14, 1995, OP-903 was improperly implemented in that, the
Service Water Booster Pump suction pressure gauge instrument stop valve
was shut instead of being open as required. As a result, the suction
pressure gauge for the operating Service Water Booster Pump was
isolated.

On January 31, 1995, the licensee implemented a procedure change for
charging pump packing break-in via Night Order 95-008 instead of a
procedure revision or temporary change. This consisted of a detailed
step-by-step procedure for operation of the pumps following maintenance
or extended idle periods. In addition, on February 7, 1995, the
licensee reduced the minimum allowed CCW heat exchanger outlet
temperature from 550 F to 45* F via Night Order 95-012 instead of a
procedure revision or temporary change.
On February 24, 1995, Procedure OP-906, Heating, Ventilation, and Air
Conditioning was inadequate for the intended operation in that using
this inadequate procedure resulted in the Auxiliary Building Ventilation
System being removed from service prior to establishing the intended
compensatory measures. The desired evolution was to notify E&RC before
the Auxiliary Building Ventilation System was removed from service such
that compensatory measures could be put in place.
On March 7, 1995, the shift supervisor failed to notify the crew of a
procedure change that had reduced the Penetration Pressurization System
(PPS) leakage limit. This resulted in a Reactor Operator failing to
recognize that the leakage limit had been reached at 8:00 p.m. on
March 8, 1995, and take appropriate action to avoid exceeding the limit.
As a result, on March 9, at 5:00 a.m., PPS leakage exceeded the TS limit
which placed the unit in an 8-hour shutdown action statement.
On March 6, 1995, Maintenance Management Procedure MMM-028, Control Of
Field Issued Material, was found to be inadequate in that, the procedure
does not control the shelf life of issued lubricants. This resulted in
maintenance personnel using grease with an expired shelf life to
lubricate the actuator MOV-350, Boric Acid to Charging Pump Suction
Valve. In addition, on March 13 and 14, 1995, the inspectors determined
that Maintenance Management Procedure MMM-028, Control Of Field Issued
Material had not been followed in that, during an inspection conducted
on those days the inspectors detected several examples of improperly
stored Q category material and Q category material which was missing
required markings/labeling.
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 U. S.
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 of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a
"Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation:
(1)
the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the
violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results
achieved, (3)
the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further
violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Your
response may reference or include previous docketed correspondence, if the
3
correspondence adequately addresses the required response. If an adequate
reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a
Demand for Information may be issued as to why the license should not be
modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may be proper
should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given
to extending the response time.
