0 NOT I C OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority Browns Ferry Unit 2 Docket No. 50-260 License No.

DPR-52 During an NRC inspection conducted on February 4 - March 16,

1996, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.

In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions",

NUREG 1600, the violation is listed below:

Technical Specification 6.8. 1. l.a requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February, 1978.

Paragraph 9 of Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33 recommends procedures for performing maintenance.

SSP-2. 1, Site Procedures

Program, step 3.2.8, states that each step of a "Continuous Use" procedure is to be signed off as complete before proceeding to the next step.

ECI-O-OOO-MOV001, Maintenance For Limitorque Motor Operated Valves, is a "Continuous Use" procedure.

Contrary to the above, on February 29, 1996, written procedures were not implemented during maintenance activities on core spray loop test valve 2-FCV-75-22.

Steps of Procedure ECI-0-000-MOV001 were not signed off as complete before proceeding to the next step.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
