J APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Louisiana Power and Light Company Docket:
50-382 License: CPPR-103 Based on the results of an NRC inspection conducted during the period of March 1-5, 1982, and in accordance with the Interim Enforcement Policy, 45 FR 66754 (October 7, 1980), the following violations were identified:
1.
Failure to Follow Procedures for Protection of and Access to Reactor Vessel, Reactor Vessel Head, and Upper and Lower Internals Criterion V of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, requires that activities affecting safety be performed in accordance with the prescribed procedures or instructions.
EBASCO Care and Maintenance Instructions for the reactor vessel and reactor vessel head, CMI-33, Rev. 7 and CMI-37, Rev. 3, respectively, require varying degrees of cleanliness and varying work zones and clean-liness requirements.
Contrary to the above, on March 2, 1982, the NRC inspectors observed the following:
a.
The reactor vessel with " Fish Net" covering only.
b.
The reactor internals not covered.
c.
Reactor head uncovered.
d.
Two control element drive mechanism ~ were open to the atmosphere.
s e.
Access control not established on reactor vessel head or reactor upper internals.
f.
Access control to reactor vessel and core support barrel inadequate.
g.
Considerable dirt in reactor vessel and components.
h.
Dirt in and on reactor vessel head.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplemant II.E).
2.
Failure to Provide Prompt and Appropriate Corrective Action to Negative Inspection Findings Regarding Reactor Vessel Cleanliness Criterion XVI of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, states that measures shall be established to assure that conditions adverse to quality are promptly identified and corrected.
gw OJ 0a 1
/
2 Contrary to the above,.an inspection of the fcllowing documents shows failure to promptly correct conditions adverse to quality.
A significant number of daily housekeeping reports by NISCO QC from July 31, 1981, through March 3, 1982, show unacceptable cleanliness of reactor vessel.
These reports (NISCO Housekeeping Inspection Report Form FS-68) show repeated rejected cleanliness.
Reports stating conditions such as " Dirt, Trash, Debris" in reactor vessel.
" Trash in Bottom" of vessel, " Broken Light Bulbs, Trash, Dirt, Oebris" in reactor vessel are often repeated.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement II.E).
3.
Failure to Follow Periodic Maintenance Instructions for Electrical Equipment Criterion V of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B,. requires that activities affecting safety be performed in accordance with the prescribed procedures or instructions.
LP&L-Procedure ME-4-702, Revision 0, " Routine Electrical Maintenance during Construction Phases," paragraph 8.1.5 requires the meggering of motors (50 HP and above) that have been or will be idle for at least 1 month.
Gulf Engineering Equipment Maintenance Records for CCW Pump Motors, HPSI Pump Motors, and LPSI Pump Motors require monthly meggering of the motors after October 26, 1981.
Contrary to the above, the NRC inspector's review of maintenance and start-up records on March 3 and 4, 1982, revealed that HPSI system (60A) and the LPSI system-(608) were released.to LP&L without the periodic maintenance requirements (megger testing) being current.
After release to LP&L, the maintenance requirements (monthly megger testing) were not performed at the appropriate intervals for the HPSI, LPSI, and CCW pump motors.
The maintenance and.startup records for these motors indicated the following information:

Megger testing related to startup requirements but not recorded for maintenance.
LP&L Startup Group indicated that even though ME-4-702 (3-20-81) existed, they had not initiated the maintenance program to the date of this inspection.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement II.E).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR Part 2.201, Louisiana Power and Light Company is hereby required to submit to this office within 30 days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including:
(1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Under the authority of Section 182 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, this response shall be submitted under oath or affirmation.
Consideration may be given to-extending your response time for good cause shown.
