NOTICE OF VIOLATION Indiana Michigan. Power Company Docket No. 50-315 As a result of the inspection conducted on October 4 through November 16, 1989 and in accordance with the General Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions (10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C), the following violation was identified:
Unit 1 Technical Specification Limiting Condition for Operation 3.5.2 requires two independent ECCS subsystems shall be OPERABLE in MODES 1,2 and 3, with ACTION stipulations limited to the case of one ECCS subsystem inoperable.
Unit 1 Technical Specification 3.0.3 requires, when a Limiting Condition for Operation is not met (e.g., neither ECCS subsystem OPERABLE) except as provided in associated ACTION requirements, within one hour action shall be initiated to place the unit in a MODE in which the Specification does not apply.
Contrary to the above, on September 13, 1989, Unit 1 was in MODE 1 for one hour and eight minutes with neither independent ECCS subsystem OPERABLE.
One subsystem (Train A) was inoperable due to ongoing maintenance on safety injection pump IN,.while the other (Train 8) was inoperable due to testing conditions which defeated the Train automatic actuation logic.
Action was not initiated within one hour to place the unit in a MODE in which the Specification did not apply.
This is a Severity Level IY violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each violation: (I) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2).corrective action to be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Considerat'ion may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
