APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Tennessee Valley Authority Docket No. 50-259 Browns Ferry 1 License No. DPR-33 As a result of the inspection conducted on January 6-8, 1982, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7,1980), the following violation was identified.

Technical Specification 3.2.b requires the limiting conditions for operation for the instrumentation that initiates or controls the core and containment cooling systems as given in Table 3.2.B.

Table 3.2.8 requires that there shall be minimum of two operable channels per trip system for Pressure Switches PS-64-58A thru D.

Contrary to the above, the requirement that there be two operable channels per trip system for PS-64-58 was not met in that on January 6,1982, at 1330 it was determined by the resident inspector during a routine tour of the Reactor Building that PS-64-58C had it's associated isolation valve shut rendering the switch inoperable, thus having only one channel operable in one trip system.

This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I.D.2.).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including:

(1) admission or denial of the alleged viola-tion; (2) the reasons for the violation if admitted; (3) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (4) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown. Under the authority of Section 182 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, this response shall be submitted under oath or affirmation.
