APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Georgia Power Company Docket Nos. 50-321 & 50-366 Hatch 1 and 2 License Nos. DPR-57 and NPF-5 As a result of the inspection conducted on June 22 - July 26,1982, and in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy, 47 FR 9987 (March 9, 1982), the follcaing violations were identified.
Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that procedures controlling the operation of safety-related systems be implemented.
Plant procedure HNP-P-2001, Annunciator Response Procedures, requires that on a scram with MSIVs closed, the safety relief valves (SRVs) be manually opened to maintain reactor pressure between 800 and 1040 psig.
Plant procedures HNP-1-1907, Failure of Safety / Relief Valves to Operate, Step B.1.a., requires that if one safety / relief valve has failed to operate, that valves should be opened as necessary to prevent reactor vessel overpressurization.
Contrary to the above, subsequent to a scram with MSIV closure on July 3, 1982, safety relief valves were not manually operated as required when all eleven failed to open at their proper setpoints of between 1080 and 110 psig. Partial Automatic SRV actuation did occur at approximately 1200 psig, terminating the overpressure condition.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I). This applies to Unit 1 only.
Technical Specification 3.13.6.a. (Unit 1) and 3.7.7.a. (Unit 2) require that non-functional fire barrier penetrations protecting safety-related areas be monitored by a continuous fire watch or equivalent on one side of the affected penetration within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.
Contrary to the above, approximately 20 fire doors on Units 1 and 2 were found to be non-functional prior to April 14, 1982 and fire watches or equivalent were not established as required.
This is a Severity level IV Violation (Supplement I). This applies to Units 1 and 2.
