ENCLOSURE 1
NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority Browns Ferry Docket Nos.
50-259, 50-260, and 50-296 License Nos.
DPR-33, DPR-52, and DPR-68 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted June 1 " 30,
- 1986, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.
The violation involved design control of cable pulling activities.
In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions,"
10 CFR Part 2, Appendix.C (1985),
The violation is listed below:
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion III requires that measures shall be established to assure applicable regulatory requirements and the design basis are met.
These measures shall include provisions to assure that appropriate quality standards are specified and included in design documents and that deviations from such standards are controlled.
Contrary to the
- above, this requirement was not met from January 15 - June 16, t
- 1986, in that newly implemented standards for control of installation of insulated cables (TVA General Specification
- 38) were not specified for use on facility design modifications in progress prior to January 15, 1986.
The TVA Office of Engineering implemented the new cable installation criteria of General Specification 38, revision 7, at all TVA facilities with the exception of Browns Ferry as of January 15, 1986.
General Specification 38 was issued for all TVA sites to have insulated cable installations done consistently at all TVA nuclear plants and to bring TVA's cable installation practices up to a level consistent with current industry practice.
General Specification 38 revision 7 was issued on January 15,
- 1986, for all future modifications at Browns Ferry.
From January 15, 1986 to June 16, 1986 (inspection date) the licensee did not implement the cable installation specification G-38 at Browns Ferry although this corrective action was deemed necessary at all other TVA facilities to meet cable installation standards.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I)
