APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority License Nos.

DPR-33, DPR-52 and DPR-68 Browns Ferry Based on the NRC inspection August 6 through September 14, 1979, certain of your activities were apparently not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements as indicated below.

These items have been categorized as described in correspon-dence to you dated December 31, 1974.

A.

As required by Technical Specification 6.3.A, detailed written procedures shall be prepared, approved and adhered to.

Mechanical Maintenance Instruc-tion 1 states that the steam separator will be transported from the vessel to its storage pit under water.

Radiation Control Instruction 1 states that the Health Physics supervisor's approval is required for dose rates to workers which exceeds 1

Rem per hour.

Contrary to the above, on August 28, 1979, the steam seperator was trans-ported from the reactor cavity to its storage pit with the top four to six feet uncovered.

Dose rates to workers were 1.5 Rem per hour during part of the movement and the Health Physics supervisor's approval was not obtained.

This is an infraction applicable to Unit 3.

B.

As required by 10 CFR 73.55(e)(6),

individuals not authorized by the licensee to enter protected areas without escort, must be escorted in the protected area by a watchman or other individual designated by licensee.

As implemented by Paragraph 1.7 of the licensee's approved Security Plan, the Plant Superintendent will assign trained plant personnel to perform necessary escort duties.

Contrary to the above, on September 5,

1979, two individuals were observed in the Outage office, within the protected
area, without an escort assigned or present.

This is an infraction.
