NOTICE OF VIOLATION Virginia Electric and Power Company Surry 1 and 2 Docket Nos.: 50-280, 50-281 License Nos.: DPR-32, DPR-37 During an NRC Inspection conducted on October 2 through November 5, 1994, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.
In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the violation is listed below:
Technical Specification 6.4.D requires that procedures for maintenance operations which have an effect on the safety of the reactor be foll owed.
Virginia Power Administration Procedure 0801, Maintenance Program, revision 4, Step 6.10.2.b, requires that when a work instruction cannot be followed, the items shall be placed in a safe condition, work stopped, and a new or revised instruction be prepared.
Maintenance work orders 272634-03 and 271507-05 required design change 92-27-3 instructions be performed on the Unit 2 Band the Unit 1 A charging pump temperature control valve positioners.
Contrary to the above, personnel did not stop work and revise the procedure or obtain a new procedure after identifying that the work instructions contained in design change 92-27-3 could not be followed.
On September 2 and October 21, 1994, the design change to modify the temperature control valve positioner was completed on the Unit 2 B charging pump and the Unit 1 A charging pump, respectively.
On both occasions, personnel recognized that the design change instructions could not be followed and subsequently modified the positioners utilizing a method not specified by the procedure.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 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 U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice).
This reply should be clearly marked as a "Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or demand for information may be issued as to why the licensee should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken.
Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
