APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duke Power Company Docket No. 50-269 Oconee 1 License No. DPR-38 As a result of the inspection conducted on June 19, 1981, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980),

the following violation was identified.

Technical Specification Section 6.4.1 states that the station shall be operated and maintained in accordance with approved procedures including procedures for the fire protection program implementation.

Oconee Nuclear Station Directive 3.11.5, Permanent and Transient Storage of Combustible

Material, was developed to control the location and limit the amount of combustible material storage within the plant. Section 4.6 of Directive 3.11.5 states that non-permanent storage of combustible materials may occur but must be used within four days, except in mechanical, electrical and ventilation equipment rooms the materials must be removed when the work is complete or when personnel performing the work are not occupying the area.

Contrary to the above, a total of 138 combustible charcoal filter units each containing 50 pounds of charcoal were found stored in the Unit 1 containment purge exhaust equipment room on June 15, 1981, and the room was unoccupied.

These filters had apparently been stored in this room for approximately 120 days.

This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement I.E).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including: (1) admission or denial of the alleged viola tion; (2) the reasons for the violation if admitted; (3) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (4) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown. Under the authority of Section 182 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, this response shall be submitted under oath or affirmation.
