APPENDIX A l
NOTICE OF VIOLATION New York Power Authority Docket No. 50-333 I
James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant License No. DPR-59 1
1 During an NRC inspection conducted from March 7,1993 to April 17, 1993, two violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2,-Appendix C, the violations are listed below:
A.
Technical Specification 6.8.A states, in part, that written procedures shall be implemented that meet or exceed the requirements of Section 5 " Facility Administrative Policies and Procedures" of ANSI 18.7 - 1972.
ANSI 18.7 - 1972, Section 5.1.2 states, in part, that procedures shall be followed.
l Modification M1-91-004, " Chemical Decontamination - Addition of Permanent Pipmg l
and Valve", Installation Procedure No.1, Section 10.0, " Post-installation / Pre-operational Testing", specifies in paragraph 10.1 that all socket type welded fittings
[
that were installed on the 1" diameter branch lines on the recirculation system piping risers will be verified leak-tight during reactor vessel operational pressure testing per surveillance test procedure ST-39H.
l Contrary to the above, on September 30,1992, ST-39H was performed, but the manual isolation valves in the ten recirculation riser decontamination connections were not opened to allow pressurization and leak testing of the piping and welds downstream of the manual isolation valves.
I This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement 1).
[
i B.
10 CFR 50.9 requires, in part, that information provided to the Commission by a licensee be complete and accurate in all material respects.
l Contrary to the above, NYPA provided inaccurate information to the NRC by [[letter::05000333/LER-1993-006-01, :on 930225,fire Pump 76P-2 Declared Inoperable Due to Inadequate Pump Discharge Pressure.On 930226,fire Pump 76P-1 Declared Inoperable Due to Engine Overheating. Fire Pumps Will Be Replaced/Rebuilt|letter dated March 12,1993]], transmitting Licensee Event Report 93-006, Inoperability of Fire Pumps. The sequence of events, when the electric driven and diesel driven fire pumps were declared inoperable, were in error and in conflict with the February 26,1993 Emergency Notification System chronology and a facsimile transmission made by NYPA, on March 1,1993, concerning this event.
4 This is a Severity I2 vel V violation (Supplement VII).
