a Appendix A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Wisconsin Electric Power Company Docket No. 50-266 Docket No. 50-301
.As a result of the inspection conducted on May 1-29, 1981, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980), the following violations were identified:
1.
10 CFR 50.72 states in part, "Each licensee of a nuclear power reactor licensed under Section 50.21 or Section 50.22 shall notify-the NRC Opcrations Center as soon as possible and in all cases within one hour of any of the following significant events and shall identify that event as being reported pursuant to this section:
any event resulting in manual or automatic activation of engineered safety features, including the Reactor Protection System."
Coatrary to the above, following an automatic trip of the Unit 2 reactor in response to a low-low level in the "A" steam generator during physics testing on May 21, 1981, the licensee feiled to inform the NRC Operations Center of the event.
This is a Severity Level VI violation (Supplement I).

The April 20, 1981 order for Modification of License Concerning Primary Coolant System Pressure Isolation Valves,Section III, Paragraph 2 re-quires that prior to closing a MOV as backup isolation for untested Event V check valves, " Procedures shall be implemented and operators trained to assure that the MOV remains closed."
Contrary to the above, the inspector determined on May 21, 1981, chat the Special Order promulgating the order requirements had not been reviewed by the personnel on two shifts which operated. Unit I af ter MOV's were tagged shut, and that sontrol operators were not on the routing for the order.
This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement I).
