APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Pennsylvania Power and Light Company Susquehanna Unit 1 and 2 Docket No.

50-387/50-388 License No.

NPF-14/NPF-22 During an NRC inspection conducted on March 30, 1993 - May 10, 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:

A.

Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established, implemented and maintained covering activities referenced in Regulatory Guide 1.33.

Regulatory Guide 1.33 requires licensees to establish administrative procedures for equipment control.

Nuclear Department Administrative Procedure NDAP-QA-0302, System Status and Equipment Control, requires additional controls for containment boundary valves located outside containment.

Specifically, manual valves shall be closed, locked and tagged.

Procedure CL-152-0012, Unit 1 HPCI system - Mechanical, Item 50 specifies the normal position of the 155FO92 HPCI turbine exhaust vacuum breaker test valve as locked, closed, capped, and containment tagged.

Contrary to the above, on April 20, 1993, the inspector discovered that the HPCI turbine exhaust vacuum breaker test valve (155FO92) was closed, but unlocked.

All other required valve attributes were proper.

This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement I).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Pennsylvania Power and Light 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 I, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice).

'2 and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Ifan adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a Demand for Information may be issued to show cause 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,,
