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 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V, as implemented by Duke Power Company Topical Report, Quality Assurance Program, Duke-1 requires that activities effecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstance and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures or drawings.
Contrary to the above, on June 21, 1994, while performing a ten year Inservice Inspection test, on Unit 1, Motor-Operated-Valve 1LP-103 was opened under conditions not established by documented instructions and not accomplished in accordance with appropriate procedures. Test
