i ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION (

Georgia Power Company Docket No. 50-366 Hatch Unit 2 License No. NPF-5  ;

During the NRC inspection conducted on July 4 - August 7,1993, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of l Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, [

the violation is listed below:

Hatch Unit 2 Technical Specification (TS) 6.8.1.a requires that written i procedures be established, and maintained as recommended in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. '

Section 9 of Regulatory Guide 1.33 recommends procedures for maintenance activities. Implicit in these requirements is that the procedures are adequate.  :

Contrary to the above, there was inadequate procedural guidance for maintenance activities on two Unit 2 Primary Containment Isolation Valves, 2831-F019 and 2B31-F020. There were no specific written 6 instructions or guidance explaining how the maintenance activities ,

should be conducted or that the valve actuator should be adjusted following maintenance activities. Also, there was no procedural guidance delineating valve actuator adjustment acceptance criteria to '

ensure the valves would close as required. As a result, the valve actuators were not properly adjusted to ensure valve closure for all reactor pressure conditions.  :

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1)

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Georgia Power Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555, with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector, Hatch Nuclear Plant, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis 1 for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. ,

If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or demand for infarmation may be issued as to why the license should '

not be modified, suspended, rr revoked, or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
