l CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION VIOLATION: No. 413/84-45-02 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, Criterion V states, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances, and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.

Contrary to the above, the licensee did not establish specific plant procedures or instructions governing their Cold License Certification Observation training.

Response

1.

Duke admits the violation as stated.

2.

The reason the violation occurred was failure to translate the broad program requirements into sufficient detail instruction, to assure training was consistent and properly documented.

3.

Corrective steps which have been taken include:

(a) An independent audit was performed on Cold License Group 1 by Duke's Operations General Office staff. This audit was completed on June 1, 1984. An audit is presently being performed on Cold License Group 2 and will be completed by July 5,1984 (b) All discrepancies as a result of the audits will be resolved by July 5, 1984.

(c)

(d)

Individuals involved have been instructed on the importance of proper documentation and performance of tasks.

4.

Formal procedures are being developed and will be in place prior to beginning Hot License training. These procedures should prevent recurrence.

DEVIATION: No. 413/84-45-01 Catawba Nuclear Station Final Safety Analysis Report Section 13.2.2.2.2(k) states, in part, that the Cold Certification Observation Check List provides structured guidance for required observation tasks.

OPS-NRC, presented to and accepted by the NRC in October 1977, states, in part, that the Cold Certification Observation task date shall be the date the task is signed off as being observed.

Contrary to the above, in two instances, the Cold Certification Observation Check Lists were incorrectly documented as completed.

Response

1.

Duke admits the deviation as stated.

2.

The reason for the deviation was a failure to establish and implement a formal procedure governing the conduct of Cold License Certification Observation training.

Corrective steps which have been taken include:

(a) An independent audit was performed on Cold License Group i by Duke's Operations General Office staff. This audit was completed on June 1, 1984.

An audit is presently being performed on Cold License Group 2 and will be completed by July 5,1984.
