During the inspection, certain violations of these NRC requirements were identified.
In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, 10 CFR 2, Appendix C, the viola-tions are set forth below.
A.
The Facility Operating Licenses for Units 1 and 2, dated September 28, 1983 and Harch 23, 1984 respectively, require that the licensee shall fully implement and maintain all provisions of the approved fire protection program contained in the licensee's Fire Protection Review Report (FPRR),
