Carolina Power and Light Company

Senior Vice President

Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-325/93-08 AND 50-324/93-08)
This refers to the inspection conducted by G. Wiseman of this office on
February 22-26, 1993. The inspection included a review of activities autho-
rized for your Brunswick I and 2 facility. At the conclusion of the inspec-
tion, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified
in the enclosed report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
Based on the results of this inspection, certain of your activities appeared
to be in violation of NRC requirements, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice). The violation was cited because you did not
hydrostatically test fire protection piping in accordance with your design
specifications or the applicable National Fire Protection Association stan-
dards. The inspection also revealed that fire protection procedures had not
I
been updated to reflect facility and organizational changes. A Nuclear
Assessment Department audit in October 1992, identified similar problems and
the need for increased management attention in the fire protection area.
You
are requested to include in your response to the enclosed Notice, action taken
and planned to strengthen management control over the fire protection area.
You are required to respcad to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response.
In your
response, you should document the specific actions taken and any additional
actions you plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this
Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the results of future
inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC enforcement action is
necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory requirements.
