APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Arizona Nuclear Power Project Post Office Box 52034
- Phoenix, Arizona 85072-2034 Docket No. 50-528 License No.
NPF-41 As a result of the NRC inspection conducted on May 10, 1987 - June 20, 1987 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 (1987), the violation is listed below:
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI "Corrective Action" states, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that prompt corrective action is taken to preclude repetition of significant conditions adverse to quality.
Contrary to the above, in Unit 1 on June 1, 1987, during the performance of testing on the "B" train containment spray header discharge
- valve, a related spray line valve specified to be closed by an approved procedure, was left open resulting in the draining of approximately 100 gallons of water from the refueling water tank (RWT) into the containment building.
Prompt corrective actions to preclude repetition were not implemented as this represents a similar incident as occurred in Unit 2 on May 19, 1987.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Arizona Public Service Company is hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation to the U.
S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region V, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspection office at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, 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 if admitted, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved; (3) corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order 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.
Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
FOR THE NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Dated at Walnut Creek, California this'~ day of ~1987 D.
