9 APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duke Power Company License No. DPR-55 Oconee Nuclear Station, Unit 3 Based on the NRC inspection September 2-30, 1980, certain of your activities were apparently not conducted in full compliance with NRC requirements as indi-cated below. These items have been categorized as described in correspondence to you dated December 31, 1974.

A.

Technical Specification 3.7 prescribes the operability conditions for off-site and on-site electrical power sources for operation of station auxiliaries during reactor operation.

Contrary to the above, on July 10 and 11, 1980, Unit 3 was operated in a mode with only control grade automatic transfer capability between normal power source and startup power source. The safety grade automatic transfer capability was out-of-service during these periods. Manual transfer capa-bility was available at all times.

This is an infraction and applies to Unit 3.

B.

As required by Technical Specification 6.1.2, procedure changes issued for temporary use must be approved by two members of the station staff, at least one of whom holds a Senior Reactor Operator's license on the unit.

These changes must also be reviewed by members of the station supervisory staff.

Contrary to the above, Change 12 to Instrument Procedure IP/0/A/3000/12, 1.32, did not conform in that:

(1) the safety evaluation was performed by an I&E Technician who did not recognize that the change would permit nonconformance with Technical Specification 3.7; and, (2) temporary approval did not receive two signatures by station supervisory staff. Only one approval, by a senior Reactor Operator, was obtained.

This is an infraction and applies to Unit 3.
