ENCLOSURE 1
NOTICE OF VIOLATION Carolina Power and Light Company Shearon Harris Docket No. 50-400 License No.
NPF-63 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on March 30-April 3,
- 1987, a violation.of NRC requirements was identified.
The violation involved inadequate startup shield verification radiation surveys.
In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement. Actions,"
10 CFR Part 2, Appendix' (1986),
the violations are listed below:
10 CFR 20.201(b) requires surveys to be made as may be necessary to comply with 10 CFR Part 20 and are reasonable under the circumstances to evaluate the extent of radiation hazards that may be present.
Technical Specification 6. 11 requires that procedures for personnel radiation protection shall be adhered to. for all operations involving personnel radiation exposure.
Startup Test Procedure SU-9105-S-12, Shield Test Survey at 50/ Power Test
- Plateau, dated February 11,
- 1987, requires that the survey be performed about one meter from the wall (Section 6.6) and that the area between Radiation Base Points (RBPs) be continuously monitored, (Section 6.11).
FSAR Section 14.2. 12.2.28 states that shield surveys. will be conducted at the 50K and 100% power plateaus to establish the adequacy of shielding.
Contrary to the above, on February 23, 1987, the 50K shield survey was not adequately performed in that.:
1.
Contact readings instead of one meter measurements from shield surfaces were made by several of the surveyors.
2.
Shield areas between RBPs were not continuously monitored.
3.
Exposure rate measurements at 50%
power were not extrapolated to rated full power.
4.
Surveys of auxiliary shielding associated with sources external to the containment building (e.g.,
chemical and volume control system),
including vertical and horizontal shield surfaces and labyrinths were not performed.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement IV).
