APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION
' Philadelphia Electric Company Docket Nos. 50-277 Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Units 2 and 3 50-278 License Nos. OPR-44 DPR-56 As a result of the inspection conducted on April 14-16, 1981, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR C6754 (October 7, 1980), the following violations were identified:
A.
10 CFR 20.103(a)(3) states in part, "For purposes of determining compliance with the requirements of this sectioa, the licensee shall use suitable measurements of concentrations of radioactive materials in air for detecting and evaluating airborne radioactivity in restricted areas..."
Contrary to the above, during welding of a control rod drive-under vessel winch on Aoril 15, 1981, suitable measurements of concentrations of airborne radioactive materials were not made in that the air sampler position (upstream and at least 10-15 feet away from the welding operation) precluded the collection of a sample representative of the worker's breathing zone. The individual was welding, material from which radiation as high as 8 millirad / hour (fixed contamination) had been measured.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement IV).
B.
Technical Specification 6.11 states in part, " Procedures for personnel radiation protection shall be prepared... and adhered to for all operations-involving personnel radiation exposure.
1.
Health Physics 0parating Procedure HP0/CO-4, " Radiation Work Permit,"
Revision 16, requires in part in Section VI.3 that on entering an RWP area each person shall provide time of entry and pocket dosimeter reading prior to entering. Upon exit from the area, the time out and exposure received shall be indicated on the RWP Access and Exposure Control form.

Contrary to the above, as of April 16,1981, the 11:ensee's respiratory protective equipment training program did not provide trainir.g for personnel expected to use the breathing air (manifold) supply system, which was routinely used by workers.
This is a Severity Level V Violation (Supplement IV).
