(Il APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority-License No. DPR-33 Browns Ferry Based on the NRC inspection March 7 through April 4, 1980, certain of your acti-vities were apparently not conuucted in full compliance with NRC requirements as indicated below. These items have been categorized as described in correspondence tc you dated December 31, 1974.

As required by Criterion IX of Appendix B to 10 CFR 50, measures shall be established to assure that special processes, including velding heat treat-ing, and nondestructive testing, are controlled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified procedures in accordance with applicable codes, standards, specifications, criteria, and other special requirements. The accepted quality assurance program (Topical Report TVA-TR-75-1A), states in part that TVA QA/QC Procedures requires that special processes be con-trolled and accomplished by qualified personnel using qualified written procedures.

In addition, Item 6.3.A.1 of the facility Technical Specification states that, detailed written procedures, including applicable checkoff lists covering items listed below,shall be prepared, approved and adhered to for preventive or corrective maintenance operation which could have an effect on the safety of the reactor.

Contrary to the above, on March 11, 1980, qualified procedures were not used for work on the High Pressure Coolant Injection pystem (HPCI) steam line when attempting to correct a misalignment problem on the HPCI steam line by the use of heat treating.

This is an infraction.
