ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Virginia Electric and Power Company Surry Docket Nos. 50-280,281 License Nos. DPR-32,37 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on July 18-22, 1988, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.
In accordance with the "General Statement of Pol icy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1987), the violation is listed below:
- Technical Specification 6.4.A.2 requires procedures for calibration and testing of systems involving the nuclear safety of the station. Technical Specification 3.1.C.2 limits the leakage rate of the reactor coolant system from other than controlled sources to less than one gallon per minute.
Contrary to the above, procedures 1 and 2-PT-10, Reactor Coolant Leakage, issued for use in October 1987, contained errors in constants used to*
correct for changes in pressurizer level and reactor coolant system temperature during the test.
These errors could have led to accepting an unacceptable result.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplem~nt I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Virginia Electric and Power Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN:
Document Control Desk, Washington, DC

Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order may be issued to show cause why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken.
