ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duke Power Company Docket Nos. 50-270 Oconee 2 License No. DPR-47 During an NRC inspection conducted on June 27 - July 24, 1993, 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 6.4.1 requires that the station be operated and maintained in accordance with approved procedures with appropriate instructions for maintenance which could affect nuclear safety.
Contrary to the above, Procedure TN/2/A/2622/01/CL5, Torque Switch Bypass Modification for Valves 2HP-115, 2AS-102, 2MS-47, and 2RC-4, was inadequate in that the modification rewired valve 2RC-4 and inadvertently deleted the Valve Open indication in the safe shutdown facility. The modification was completed and tested in October 1990 and the post modification testing did not identify that the valve was wired incorrectly.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Duke Power Company 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 Oconee Nuclear Plant, 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.
If an adequate reply is not received within 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.
