Indiana Michigan Power Company Donald C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant Docket Nos. 50-315; 50-316 Licenses No. DPR-58; DPR-74 During an NRC inspection conducted from February 10 to March 14, 1997, two violations of NRC requirements were identified.
In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violations are listed below:
Technical Specification Section'6.8.1 requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented and maintained covering the activities referenced in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978.
The licensee utilizes Plant Manager'Instructions (PMI) to implement the Technical Specification requirements.
PMI 2011, "Procedure Use and Adherence," Section 3.1.1 designates that "In-Hand" procedures are indicated by a """"in the procedure number.
The facility's Quality Assurance Program document dated July 1995, Section 1.7.5.2.5 states, in part, "Examples of "In-Hand" procedures are those developed for extensive or complex jobs where reliance on memory cannot be trusted.
Further, those procedures which describe a sequence which cannot be altered, or require the documentation of data during the course of the procedure,'are considered."
Contrary to the above, the inspectors identified that two procedures involving complex jobs where reliance on memory cannot be trusted and the sequences cannot be altered were not designated as "In-Hand" procedures with the """":
12 OHP 4021.018.002, "Placing In Service and Operating the Spent Fuel Pit Cooling and Cleanup System," Revision 11, dated August 12, 1996, and 12 OHP 4021.018.013, "Filling, Emptying and Refilling Fuel Transfer Canal," Revision 7, dated January 7, 1997.
This is a Severity Level IVviolation (Supplement I).

10 CFR 50.54(k), "Conditions of licenses" states "An operator or senior operator licensed pursuant to Part 55 of this chapter shall be present at the controls at all times during the operation of the facility." 10 CFR 55.59(a)(2) "Requalification requirements" states "Each licensee (individual licensed operator or senior operator) shall pass a comprehensive requalification written and an annual operating test."
Contrary to the above, the inspectors identified that during the 1996/1997 two year requalification cycle, the facility licensee failed to conduct a comprehensive requalification annual operating test for all licensed operators.
This is a Severity Level IVviolation (Supplement I).
