Appendix NOTICE OF VIOLATION American Electric Power Service Docket No. 315 Corporation Docket No. 316 As a result of the inspection conducted on April 27-29 and May 3-6, 1983, and in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, 47 FR 9987 (March 9, 1982),

the following violation was identified:

10 CFR 20.201(b) states that each licensee shall make or cause to be made such surveys as (1) may be necessary for the licensee to comply with the regulations.in this part, and (2) are reasonable under the circumstances to evaluate the extent of radiation hazards that may be present. A " survey" is defined in 10 CFR 20.201(a) as an evaluation of the radiation hazards incident to the production, use, release, disposal, or presence of radioactive materials or other sources of radiation under a specific set of conditions.

10 CFR 20.103(b)(2) requires licensees to evaluate any intake of radioactive material which exceeds a 40-hour control measure and take actions to assure against recurrence.

Contrary to the above, in vivo count data for a terminating worker showed 95 nCi and 75 nCi of cobalt 60 on January 14 and 15, 1983, respectively.

Although these data exceeded the 40-hour control measure for the long-term, insoluble cobalt 60 deposited in the lungs, no further in vivo counts.or other evaluations were performed to properly evaluate the cobalt 60 deposition.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement IV).

(

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written state-i ment or explanation in reply, including for each item of noncompliance:

(1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action l

to be taken to avoid further noncompliance; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
