the following violations were identified.

Technical Specification 6.3.A.S requires detailed written procedures shall be prepared and adhered to for preventive or corrective maintenance operations which could have an effect on the safety, of the reactor.

Browns Ferry Standard Practice

Contrary to the above, on March 24, 1981, the keys to these areas were being maintained and used by health physics personnel and radwaste operators without being under the administrative control of the shift engineers on duty.

This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement I.E.).
