Attachment Based on the results of an NRC inspection conducted during the period of March 1-31, 1984, and in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR Part 2,
. Appendix C), 47 FR 9987, dated March 9,1982, the following violation was iden-ti fied:
Failure to Follow Procedures Technical Speci fication 5.8.1 requires that " written procedures... be established, implemented, and maintained that meet or exceed the minimum requirements of Section 5.1 and 5.3 of ANSI N18.7-1972, and Appendix A of USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.33..."
Standing Order G-7 establishes the Operating Manual and states in Section 1.3 that " adherence to the Operating Manual is mandatory."
Procedure CMP-4.5, "Contairinent Purge Release Pennit," contains the in-structions for initiating and conducting a containment purge release.
Section VIII.6(c) states that, "during the use of the contairinent purge system, the release must be terminated if the X/Q value becomes greater than E-Sec/M3 (the limiting X/Q) based on C FM. "
Contrary to the above, on March 6,1984, during the conduct of Contain-ment Purge 84013, the licensee failed to tenninate the cnntainment purge when the 8:00 a.m. X/Q reading was greater than the limiting X/Q for the established flow rate.
This is a Severity Level IV Violation. (Supplement I.D.3) (285/8407-01).
Response
(1)
The corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved.
The incident was discussed with the Operations personnel involved. A memo has been issued to the Operations Department outlining this incident and reiterating the appropriate requirements of a containment purge per-mit. A Procedure Change has been submitted to revise the Operators Check-list for the X/Q Log for Containment Purge. This change entails addition of a Shift Supervisor review of the required periodic data that is taken during a purge. The procedural change is being made to enhance the exist-ing procedure and will be completed by June 11, 1984.
To date, there have been no further violations of a containment purge pennit limiting X/Q.
(2)
Corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations.
The measures previously taken, as described in (1) above, are considered appropriate to prevent recurrence of. the violation.
(3)
The date when full compliance will g achieved.
The District is currently in full compliance.
