APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duquesne Light Company Docket No. 50-334 Based on the results of an NRC inspection conducted on February 5-8 and 12-13, 1980 it appears that certain of your activities were not conducted in full compliance with conditions of your license No. DpR-66 as indicated below.
Item A is an infraction.
Items B, C and D are deficiencies.
A..
Technical Specification 6.8.1 states that written procedures shall be established and implemented covering the activities recomended in t
Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November 1972.
Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33 Paragraph H.1 states that appropriate procedures should be provided to assure readout instruments are properly calibrated and adjusted.
Contrary to the above', it was observed that a loop calibration procedure LCP-B-LI-1000, " Refueling Water Storage Tank QS-TK-1 Level Loop L-QS1000 Calibration", Revision 0, issued March 2, 1979, which had been reviewed by the Onsite Safety Committee (OSC) and approved by the Station Superintendent, was not properly established and implemented in that:
Dai sheets in the procedure did not include the proper calibration input signals which were required as a result of a change in the level indication from wide range to narrow range performed November 1977.
Calibration of Loop "D" level recorder, LR-QS1000, was perfomed on April 26, 1979 without using the above procedure.
B.
Technical Specification 6.8.1.a states that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the activities recommended in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide, 1.33, November, 1972.
Regulatory Guide 1.33, November, 1972, Appendix A, Paragraph H.2, states, in part, that implementing procedures are required for each calibration listed in Technical Specifications.

Further, Technical Specificaton 6.10.1.d states that records of surveillance activities and calibrations required by Technical Specification shall be retained for at least five years.
j Contrary to the above.-it was observed that:
1
' Calibration of, triaxial seismic switches as required by Technical Specification Table 4.3-4, was performed on September 29, 1978, by an outside vendor using the vendor's procedure which had not been reviewed or approve'd by your staff. At that time, a procedure,
' MSP 45.02, "Siesmic Monitoring Instrument Calibration - Engdahl System", which calibrated these instruments, was in affect and.
had been approved by your. staff.
Calibration of Meteorological Monitoring Instrumentation was accomplished quarterly 'during the year 1979 by an outside vendor usi_ng a vendor procedure which had not been reviewed or approved 4
by your staff. At that time, a procedure, MSP 45.17, " Meteorological Monitoring Calibration Test", which calibrated these instruments, was in e'ffect and had been approved by your staff.
For the meteorological instrument calibrations accomplished by the vendor, records of these calibrations were not being maintained by your staff as required.
C.
Technical Specification 6.8.1.a states that written procedures shall l
be established, implemented, and maintained covering the activities recomended in Appendix "A" of Regulation Guide 1.33.
I R.egulatory Guide 1.33, November,1972, Appendix A, Paragraph H.1, states in part, that measuring and test devices should be properly calibrated and adjusted.
4 Station QA Procedure OP-12. " Control of Measuring and Test Equipment",
states in part that measuring and test equipment shall be in calibration before use and that a record of data generated during the calibration shall be maintained.
Contrary to the above, it was observed that:
1 No data was. recorded on instrument calibration sheets for calibrations performed on July 28, 1979 and February 2,1979 for a ramp generator used as a test instrument in the functional test of a Reactor Coolant Loop Flow channel l functional test.
On the data sheet dated February 2,1979 an annotation was made that a calibration had been perfomed; on the data sheet dated July 28, 1979 there was no' indication _of satisfactory calibration.

Appendix A 3
Data recorded for the calibration of a decade resistance box used as a test instrument in the calibration of a Delta T -
"T" average Protection Instrument Channel, two of five scales calibrated appear to be out of the tolerances specified on the data sheet. One of the scales, 100-1000 ohms, was used in the calibration of the Reactor Protection Channel.
D.
. Technical Specification 6.8.1.a states written procedures shall be established, implemented and maintained covering the activities recomended in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November, 1972.
4 Regulatory Guide 1.33 November,1972 Appendix "A", Paragraph A, states, in part, that administrative procedures should be established j
for procedure adherence and temporary change method.
BVPS-0M l'.48.3.E.6 "On-the-Spot Revisions", states in part, that c
Operating Manual Change Notices (OMCN'S) will be noted in the i
operator's and shift supervisor's logs.
BVPS-0M 1.48.9.L, " Maintenance of Operating Manual Controlled Copies", states, in part, approved revisions to the operating manual are to be inserted in the Control room and shift supervisor i
Controlled Copies of the BVPS Operating Manual.
Contrary to the'above, it was observed tnat:
i An OMCN which was in effect for Log Sheet L3-9, used for j
monitoring Meteorological Monitoring System instrumentation, i
was not posted to log sheets maintained in the Operator's log files in the Control Room.
Revision 16 to BVPS-0M 1.54.3, which had been in effect for five days at the time of the inspection, had not yet been posted to control copies of the BVPS Operating Manuals located t
in the Control Room and Control Room shift supervisors office although this change was. posted to other copies of the Operating Manual at other locations at your station. Three.0McN's, superceded by Revision 16, were still posted to the Control Room manuals..
