Carolina Power & Light Co.
Docket No. 50-261
H. B. Robinson Nuclear Plant
License No. DPR-23
During an NRC inspection conducted on February 27-March 3, 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:
10 CFR50, Appendix B, Criterion III, Design Control, requires, in part,
that applicable regulatory requirements are correctly translated into
specifications, drawings, procedures and instructions.
Technical Specification 4.4.1.2 specifies a Sensitive Leak Rate Limit
for the Penetration Pressurization System of 0.3Lp, i.e., 30% of the
allowable containment leakage, at which point repairs must be made.
This requirement is translated into the controlling procedure OMM-008,
Minimum Equipment List and Shift Relief, by Design Calculation 91-C
0005, which specifies a measured leak rate of 1.57 scfm as the measured
leak rate limit at which repairs must be made in order to comply with
Technical Specification 4.4.1.2.
Contrary to the above, when on June 16, 1994, a plant configuration
change was made to the Penetration Pressurization System which reduced
the allowable measured leakage to comply with Technical Specification 4.4.1.2, procedure OMM-008, Minimum Equipment List and Shift Relief, was
not corrected to specify the new leakage limit.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Carolina Power & Light Co. is
hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN:
Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C.
20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and a copy to the
NRC Resident Inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice,
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 correspondence adequately
addresses the required response. If an adequate reply is not received within

Q
2
the time specified in this Notice, an order or 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.
