EN 90-010 OFFICE OF ENFORCEMENT NOTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT EiFDREMENT ACTION Licensee:
Commonwealth Edison Company (EA 89-218)
(Zion Nuclear Generating Station)
Docket Nos. 50-295 and 50-304
Subject:
PROPOSED IMPOSITION OF CIVIL PENALTY - $100,000 I
This is to inform the Commission that a Notice of Violation and Proposed l
Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of $100,00.0 will be issued on or about January 31, 1990 to Commonwealth Edison Company.
This action is based on the failure to properly consider the role of the Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) ventilation support system, which is required by the FSAR but not directly included in technical specifications, when making EDG operability determinations.
The civil penalty was escalated because the NRC identified the failure of the licensee to consider the room cooling function of the EDG ventilation system prior to disabling it on all EDGs for over one month.
The civil penalty was further escalated for prior notice and poor past performance.
The licensee had raised specific questions concerning the ventilation system and had prior opportunity to resolve the issue, but failed to do so.
The licensee was also previously cited for past failures in maintaining FSAR referenced safety functions.
A 50% mitigation was applied for the proposed corrective actions.
It should be noted that the licensee has not been specifically informed of the enforcement action.
The schedule of issuance and notification is:
Mailing of Notice January 31, 1990 Telephone Notification of Licensee January 31, 1990 The State of Illinois will be notified.
The licensee has thirty days from the date of the Notice in which to respond.
Following NRC evaluation of the response, the civil penalty may be remitted, mitigated, or imposed by Order.
