CS-80-150 Mr. J. P. O'Reilly, Director Docket No. 50-302 Office of Inspection & Enforcement Licensee No. DPR-72 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Ref:

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:
We offer the following supplemental information to the Item of Non-compliance noted in the referenced inspection report:
NOTICE OF VIOLATION As required by Technical Specification 6.8.3, temporary changes to procedures may be made provided the intent of the original procedure is not altered.
Contrary to the above, on March 26, 1980, a temporary change to Operating Procedure 414, Revision 5, Nitrogen and Hydrogen System, was used to supply helium to the "B" Steam Generator which was not in the original intent of the procedure.
The attached memorandum, distributed to all plant personnel on 8 May 1980, defines the purpose and the intent for making temporary changes to plant procedures.
It is felt that this memorandum adequately addresses the generic corrective action concern to preclude a recurrence of this event.
Should there be any questions, please contact us.
Very truly yours, FLORIDA POWER CORPORATION W' _/

~ e (PN A recent inspection by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission resulted in an infraction regarding a violation of our Technical Specification in reference to temporary changes to plant procedures.
The purpose of this memorandum is to re-emphasize the intent of the temporary procedure change process. Administrative Instruction AI-400 states that the temporary changes to procedures are temporary, minor changes which do not change the intent of the original procedure.
The same paragraph goes on to define a change of intent as any change which will affect the purpose, aim, or design of the procedure.
Situations or circumstances falling within these guidelines may include, but are not limited to: adding or excluding major parts or components affected by the procedure, changing the methodology used in the procedure, or changing the acceptance criteria of the procedure.
It is of the utmost importance that all plant personnel fully understand and adhere to this procedure as well as all plant procedures. Any conflict or doubt arising, concerning the intent of a procedare, should be brought to the attention of the supervisor responsible for the concent procedure for resolution.
D. C. Poole (PN Nuclear Plant Manager
