Commonwealth Edison Company Dresden Station, Unit 3 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Docket No. 50-249 License No. DPR-25

  • During an NRC inspection completed on November 19, 1997, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NU REG 1600, the violation is listed below:

1 O CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVII requires, in part,' that sufficient records shall be maintained to furnish evidence of activities affecting quality and that the records shall be identifiable and retrievable.

Contrary to the above, on November 6, 1997, the inspector identified that the licensee had failed to furnish evidence of activities affecting quality, in that, the licensee was unable to retrieve the record of radiography performed on May 16, 1997, of a Unit 3 high pressure coolant injection pipe weld, FW-3, under work request 950Q65745.

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

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Commonwealth Edison is hereby required to submit a written statement of explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, A TIN:

Document Control Desk, Washington D.C. 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region Ill, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice of Violation (Notice), 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 or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violation, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Your response may reference or include previous docketed correspondence, if the correspondence adequately addresses the required response. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a Demand for Information may be issued as to why the li.cense 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, consideration will be given to extending the response time.

Because your response will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR), to the extent possible, it should not include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without redaction. However, if you find it necessary to include such information, you should clearly indicate the specific information that you desire not to be placed in the PDR, and provide the legal basis to support your request for withholding the information from the public.

Dated at Lisle, Illinois, this 5th day of December 1997 9712160286 971205 PDR ADOCK 05000249 G
