ENCLOSURE 1

NOTICE OF VIOLATION Florida Power and Light Company Turkey Point Units 3 and 4

Docket Nos.

50-250 and 50-251 License Nos.

DPR-31 and DPR-41 The following violation was identified during an inspection conducted on October 15 - November 12, 1985.

The Severity Level was assigned in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy ( 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C).

Technical Specification (TS) 4.5.2.b.3 requires that accumulator check valves be checked for operability during each refueling shutdown.

The Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR),

section 6.2.4, states that test circuits are provided to periodically examine the leakage back through the accumulator check valves and to ascertain that these valves seat whenever the reactor system pressure is raised.

The test circuits and accumulator check valves 875 A,

B, C,

D, E,

and F are described in FSAR Section 6.'2 and are shown in figure 6.2. 1.

Contrary to the above, since 1976 TS 4.5.2.b.3 has not been implemented, in that accumulator check valves 875 D,

E and F were not periodically examined to ascertain that they were seating nor were they tested for back leakage.

Testing which was performed was inadequate in that only check valves 875 A, B and C were verified to be seated and not leaking excessively.

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

Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within 30 days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply including:

(1) admission or denial of the alleged violation, (2) the reasons for the violation if admitted, (3) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results

achieved, (4) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations, and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Security or safeguards information should be submitted as an enclosure to facilitate withholding it from public disclosure as required by 10 CFR 2.790(d) or 10 CFR 73.21.
