Thank you for your response

We have evaluated
your response
and found that it meets the

In your response,
you denied that you were in violation of 10 CFR 50,
Appendix 8, Criterion XVI which requires,
in part, that conditions
adverse
to
~
~
~
~
~
quality are properly identified and corrected,
as described
in Violation B of
the subject Notice of Violation.
After careful consideration of the bases for your denial of the violation,
we
have concluded, for the reasons
presented
in the enclosure to the letter, that
Violation B,
as stated
in the Notice of Violation did not occur.
Accordingly,
we will adjust our records to reflect that

On June
17,
1994,
a Notice of Violation (Notice) was issued for a potential
violation identified during
a routine
NRC inspection.
Carolina
Power
and
Light Company
(CP&L) responded
to the Notice on July 14,
1994.
CP&L denied
that they were in violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI which
requires,
in part, that conditions
adverse to quality are promptly identified
and corrected.
Restatement
of Violation
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion XVI requires that measures
shall
be
established
to assure
conditions
adverse to quality, such
as failures,
malfunctions, deficiencies,
deviations
and non-conformance
are properly
identified and corrected.
The licensee's
Corporate guality Assurance
Manual, Section
12, requires that
significant conditions
adverse
to quality be identified and corrected.
Contrary to the above,
on January
22,
1994,
an emergency
plan implementing
procedure
which contained
a condition adverse
to quality regarding the
improper designation of a deleted
watchstanding
as
a replacement for the shift
supervisor
when acting
as the site emergency coordinator
was not promptly
corrected.
Summar
of Licensee's
Res
onse
The licensee
stated
in their response
that the roving
SCO position
had not
been deleted
and therefore
a condition adverse to quality in the emergency
plan implementing procedure
did not exist.
Operating
procedures
continued to
reference
the roving
SCO watch station which would be manned
when sufficient
personnel
were available.
NRC Evaluation
The adverse
condition report
(ACFR-94-348) stated that shift manning levels
may not support
emergency
plan requirements.
The
ACFR stated that in some
instances
senior reactor operator positions of SSD and roving
SCO were not
manned.
These
personnel
were listed
as potential
replacements
for the
SEC if
the
NSS were to become
incapacitated.
In all situations
a qualified
(control
room SCO) would have
been available to replace
the
NSS.
Based
upon
previous discussions
with licensee
management,
the roving
SCO position
had not
been routinely manned for the previous
two years
and was not intended to be
manned
in the future.
The inspectors
therefore
considered
the emergency
procedure to be deficient
as non-existent
personnel
were listed to replace the
SEC in the case of incapacitation.
The
ACFR was voided based
upon
a statement
from the operations
manager that shift staffing adequately
supported
the
emergency
plan.
The deficient condition was not corrected
and therefore
a
violation was issued.
Enclosure
The licensee
has provided
new information which indicates that the roving
SCO
position
was never intended to be deleted.
Discussions
with senior licensee
management
supported this statement
as they indicated that the roving
SCO
position
may be utilized in the future as manpower resources
permit.
The
inspectors
noted that in Hay, June,
and July 1994,
the roving
SCO position was
manned
as shift staffing levels were supplemented
with newly licensed
SROs.
Since the roving
SCO watch station
was
an actual position listed in the
licensee's
operating
procedures
and licensee
management
intended to use this
position in the future
as
manpower resources
permitted,
the staff concludes
that
a procedural
deficiency did not exist.
NRC Conclusion
For the
above stated
reasons,
the
NRC staff concluded that
a violation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix 6, Criterion XVI did not occur.
