APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation Docket:
50-482 Wolf Creek Generating Station Licenses:
NPF-42 During an NRC inspection conducted September 20-24, 1993, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. The violation involved the failure to correct an, emergency preparedness weakness identified by the NRC during an inspection conducted in July 1992 (Inspection Report 50-482/92-13).
In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions,"
10 CFR Part 2, the violation is listed below:
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.IV.F specifies the requirements for emergency preparedness training programs including the conduct of drills and exercises to ensure that employees of the licensee are familiar with their specific emergency response duties.
10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.IV.F.5 requires, in part, that any weakness or deficiency identified shall be corrected.
During emergency preparedness walkthroughs conducted by the NRC during the period July 6-9, 1992, weakness 482/9213-01 was identified for the failure of two out of three crews evaluated to accurately classify plant conditions corresponding to a Site Area Emergency.
Contrary to the above, during the inspection conducted September 20-24, 1993, inspectors determined that weakness 482/9213-01 had not been corrected. A repeat weakness was identified when two of three crews evaluated again failed to accurately or promptly classify plant l
conditions corresponding to a General Emergency.
