In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the violation is listed below:
Technical Specification 6.2.B, states, in part, that radiation control procedures shall be maintained and adhered to.
LaSalle Radiation Protection Procedure 1130-1, " Radiological Signs and Labels", Section F.2.f, states, in part, that areas which contain radioactive materials in excess of 1,000 dpm/100cm' shall be conspicuously posted with a sign or signs bearing the radiation symbol and the words " Caution Contaminated Area" or " Danger Contaminated Area".
Contrary to the above, on August 10, 1993, the hose storage area on the 754' elevation of the turbine building contained smearable levels of contamination in excess of 1,000 dpm/100cm' and was not posted with a " Caution Contaminated Area" or " Danger Contaminated Area" sign.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement IV).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Commonwealth Edison 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 U.S Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Region III, 799 Roosevelt Road, Glen Ellyn, Illinois, 60137, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the LaSalle County Station within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice).

If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a demand for information may be issued as to why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken.
