O V-APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority Docket Nos. 50-328 Sequoyah 2 License No. CPPR-73 As a result of the inspection conducted on November 2-6, 1980, and in accordance.
with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7,1980), the following violations were identified.
A.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V requires that activities affecting quality shall be conducted in accordance with written procedu-The
. implementing procedure for the Unit 2 hydrostatie test, Reactor Coolant System Unit 2 Cold Hydrostatic Coordination Plan 68-2, requires that a valve lineup be completed as required by Appendix E, hold orders be placed on boundary valves, add chemicals prior to increasing temperature above 150 degrees F., chemical analysis be confirmed at 600 and 1000 psig, pervonnel access be limited to the. reactor building, a relief valve be installed on the discharge of the positive displacement pump, and that communications be established between the reactor coolant area, the charging pumps room and the control room.
E Contrary to the above, activities affecting quality were not conducted in accordance with the Unit 2 reactor coolant system hydrostatic test proce-dure in progress on November 4, 1980, in that with the system pressurized to 1000 psig, the following prerequisites had not been met:
i 1.
A relief valve was not installed at the discharge of the positive displacement pump as reqaired by Section 4.3.4.
2.
A valve lineup check sheet had not been completed and hold orders had not been placed on boundary valves as required by Section 7.5.6.
The inspectors observed a sampling of approximately ten valves and found five not positioned in accordance with Appendix E.
3.
Reactor Coolant temperature was increased above 150 degrees F prior to adding lithium hydroxide to the system as required by Sections 7.4.2 and 7.5.1.
4.
Reactor' coolant was not sampled and chemistry requirements verified at
{
the 600 and 1000 psig pressure-plateaus as required by Sections 7.6.2 and 7.7.3.
5.
Measures were not taken to limit personnel access to the reactor building to only those persons involved in the hydrostatic test as reqaired by Section 4.1.14.

s Appendix A~ License No. CPPR-73 Motice of Violation 61 Direct communications were not established between the reactor coolant area, the charging pump rooms, and the control room as required by Section 4.1.12.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement II.D.1).
B.
10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion' VI, Document Control requires that procedures which prescribe activities affecting quality shall be reviewed for adequacy and approved by authorized personnel before use.
Contrary to the above, documents were not controlled in that on November 4, 1980 during the cold hydrostatic test of the reactor coolant system, the procedure in use entitled " Reactor Coolant Systera Unit 2 Cold Hydrostatic Coordination Plan 68-2" had been prepared and implemented by the engineers conducting the test and had not been independently reviewed and approved by authorized personnel.
This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement II.E).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Tennessee Valley Authority is hereby required to submit to this office within twenty-five days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including:
(1) admission or denial of the. alleged violations; (2) the reasons for the violations if admitted; (3) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (4) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Under the authority of Section 182 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, this response shall be submitted under oath or affirmation.
