NOTICE OF VIOLATION Pacific Gas and Electric Company Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant Docket Nos.

50-275 and 50-323 License Nos.

DPR-80 and DPR-82 During an NRC inspection conducted on December 10, 1989 through January 27,

1990, 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 (1989),

the violation is listed below:

10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion V reads, in part, "Activities affecting 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."

Licensee Administrative Procedure AP C-10S1, "SISIP Review of Housekeeping Activities" defines the requirements and responsibilities to assure potentially adverse seismically induced system interactions (SISI) are not created.

Step 2.4.5 defines "Non-design" or transient equipment as "scaffolding...or other supplies introduced into the plant in anticipation of future activities."

Step 4. 1 states "Personnel who introduce 'non-design'r transient equipment into the plant shall assure that unrestrained

'items or materials...are positioned such that the unrestrained items or materials cannot impact or damage nearby SISIP targets."

Contrary to the above, on December 21, 1989, construction personnel, in preparation for modifications to the plant process

computer, erected scaffolding in the three Unit 2 vital battery rooms such that the scaffolding was attached to the vital battery supports without assuring that the battery would not be adversely impacted during a seismic event.

This is a severity level IV applicable to Unit 2.

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Pacific Gas and Electric 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 V, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector, Diablo Canyon, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this 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 if admitted, (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 may be issued to show cause why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked or why such other actions as may be proper should not be taken.

Consideration may be given to extending the response time for good cause shown.
