Mr. J. C. Bryant NRC Resident Inspector Oconee Nuclear Station 8503070654 850221 PDR ADOCK 05000269 G

PDR

,,=. Violation Technical Specification 6.4.1 states that the station shall be operated and main-tained in accordance with approved procedures with appropriate check-off lists and instructions.

Contrary to the above, documentation of completion of several steps was not totally completed in performance of the controlling procedure for unit startup, OP/3/A/1102/01, as performed November 16 - November 19, 1984, in that:

a.

Upon receipt of an oral report from Department Superintendents that all work necessary for startup was completed, the information was not entered in the super-visors log as required by Enclosure 4.1, step 1.1, of the procedure.

b.

Two of the several calculations to determine adequate shutdown margin required by.1, step 2.1 and Enclosure 4.2, step 2.2, could not be located although they were signed off in the procedure and operators stated that the calculations were made, c.

Though the procedure for withdrawing safety and regulating rods was followed correctly, a signoff sheet (Procedure OP/0/A/1105/09) was not completed as required by Enclosure 4.3, steps 2.3 and 2.5.

This is a Severity Level V violation (Supplement 1).

Response

1)

Admission or denial of the alleged violation:

This violation is correct as stated.

2)

Reasons for the violation:

The lack of documentation cited in Example A resulted from personnel error in not entering the information into the log book. Example B was the result of an in-adequate administrative program covering the disposition of completed shutdown margin calculations.

Example C resulted from an inadequate program to inform shift personnel of procedural changes, and from personnel error, inattention to details by an individual.

3)

Corrective actions taken and results:

Management has emphasized the need for attention to detail in fulfilling all documentation requirements with appropriate Operations personnel, including the personnel involved in the examples cited. The inadequate administrative program noted in (2) above are being reviewed.

4)

Corrective actions to be taken to avoid further violations:

Operations management will continue to emphasize proper documentation through in-clusion in the initial and on-going training programs. After review is completed, the program covering disposition of completed shutdown margin calculations will be revised to ensure proper retention. Also, the program to notify Operations shift personnel of procedure changes and re-issues will be upgraded.

5)

Date when full compliance will be achieved:

The revisions to the initial and on-going training programs noted in (4) above will be completed by February 1, 1985. The administrative program revisions noted in (4) above will be completed by April 1, 1985.
