DPR-18 As a result of the inspection conducted on August I, 1981 through August 31, 1981 and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980),
the following violations were identified:
A.
Technical Specification 4.1.2 states, "Equipment and sampling tests shall be conducted as specified in Table 4.1.2."
Technical Specification Table 4.1-2, entitled, Minimum Frequencies for Equip-ment and Sampling Tests, requires a weekly test for tritium concentration in the reactor coolant system.
Contrary to the above, tritium samples collected on July 7, 14, 21 and 28, 1981 were not counted until August 5, 1981.
This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement 1).
B.
Technical Specification, (TS) 3.13.2 al'lows continued hot shutdown or power operation for up to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> without all hydraulic snubbers listed in TS Table 3.13-1 operable, otherwise the reactor must be in a cold shutdown condition within the next 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br />.
Technical Specification 6.9.2.b.2 requires a written report to be submitted to the NRC Regional Office within thrity days following a condition leading to operation in a degraded mode permitted by a limiting condition for operation or plant shutdown required by a limiting condition for operation.
Contrary to the above, as of August 31, 1981, a written report had not been submitted documenting that six hydraulic snubbers listed in Table 3.13-1 were deemed inoperable during functional testing performed May 20 through May 27,
'i981.
The functional tests were performed during the 1981 refueling outage at cold shutdown conditions; however, the failures could not be attributed to a specific cold shutdown activity.
This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement I).
