NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Carolina Power and Light Company

Docket No.:

50-261

H. B. Robinson Unit 2

License No.:

DPR-23

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.

Notice of Violation

2

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

Notice of Violation

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.

Dated at Atlanta, Georgia

this 17th day of April 1995
