the violation is listed below:
Environmental Technical Specification (ETS) 5.5.2 requires that detailed written procedures for the environmental monitoring program outside the
- plant, including check-off lists, where applicable, shall be
- prepared, receive appropriate administrative approval and be adhered to.
Contrary to the
- above, Radioanalytical Laboratory Procedure SC-01, Collection of Environmental Monitoring Samples, Rev.

1.
The total rainwater volume was not recorded nor was the collection container rinsed thoroughly prior to repositioning for subsequent sample collection as required by Steps 5.4.22. 1 and 5.4.22.2.
