Docket No.
50-220 License No.
DPR-63 As a result of the inspection conducted on September 7 through October 18,
- 1989, and in accordance with NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR Part 2,
Appendix C) the following violations were identified:
A.
Unit 1 Technical Specification 6.8. 1 states that written procedures shall be established and implemented to meet or exceed the requirements of Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33.
Regulatory Guide 1.33 states that appropriate procedures should be provided for the periodic calibration of
- gauges, instruments, controls and other measuring devices to maintain their accuracy.
Contrary to the
- above, since the reactor building emergency ventilation system was initially declared operable in 1969 until October
- 1989, the 1
KW strip heaters for both ventilation trains have not been calibrated.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement 1):
B.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V states that activities affecting qual-ity shall be prescribed by documented instructions or procedures appro-priate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions or procedures, Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 1, Temporary Procedure No. N1-88-6.6, System and Area Walkdown for Restart Procedure, states that the primary purpose of the system walkdown visual inspection program is to assure core reload systems do not exhibit any conditions which would inhibit them from performing their operability design function.
Contrary to the
- above, on August 2, 1989, Nl-88-6.6 was completed for the reactor building emergency ventilation system, and 1
KW heater thermostats were not calibrated (in addition to numerous other undetected inspection attributes),
which adversely impacted the system operability design func-tion as described in the FSAR.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement 1).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Niagara Mohawk Power Company is hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of the letter which transmitted this Notice, a written statement or explanation in
- reply, including:
(1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Where good cause 'is
- shown, consideration will be given to extending this response time.
