Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Consumers Power Company Dacket No. 50-255 Based on the inspection conducted during October, 1979, it appears that certair. of your activities were in noncompliance with NRC requirements, as noted below.
Item I is an infraction, and item 2 is a deficiency.
1.
Technical Specification 3.8.1.g requires a check of primary toolant system boron concentration each shift when refueling operations are being performed in the reactor.
Contrary to the above, the licensee failed to check primary coolant system boron concentration during the "A" shift on October 2, 1979, a shift during which refueling operations were being performed in the reactor.
2.
Technical Specification 6.8.1.b requires implementation of procedures covering refueling operations. Precedure FHS0-2 " Refueling Procedure" includes checklist CL A5.14-2 " Refueling Operations Shift Check Sheet," which states, in part:
"the minimum spent fuel pool / reactor cavity level is one foot below the surface skimmers during fuel handling".
Contrary to the above, the licensee handled fuel on the "A" shifts of October 11 and 12, 1979, when the water level was 1.5 and 2 feet, respectively, below the skimmers.
