APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Consumers Power Company Docket No. 50-255 Based on the inspection conducted on March 21-23 and 27-30, 1979, it appears that certain of your activities were in noncompliance with NRC requirements, as noted below.
The noncompliance items are infractions.
- 1.
- 2.
10 CFR 20.203(c)(2) requires that high radiation areas, other than HRA's established for thirty days or less, be equipped with control devices which alarm or reduce radiation levels upon entry or be maintained locked with positive control over entries.
Contrary to the above, several high radiation areas, including the clean waste receiver tank pump room, the boronometer room, the spent resin storage tank room, and the volume control and radwaste demineralizer rooms, were not locked or equipped with control devices during inspections on March 21 or March 28.
Additionally, positive control has not been exercised over entries to these and other locked HRA's, as exhibited by the failure to routinely follow the HRA access controls specified in procedure HP 2.16 and the failure to exercise positive control over HRA keys.
Technical Specifications 6.8.1 and 6.11.1 require that certain procedures, including radiation protection and radiation instrument calibration, be implemented and adhered to.
Contrary to the above, significant discrepancies in the implementation of procedures HP 2.1 (daily instrument checks),
HP 2.12 (surveys), HP 2.16 (HRA controls), HP 2.18 (instrument status board), and HP 2.26 (instrument calibrations) were identified during this inspection
