'V APPENDIX 8 NOTICE OF VIOLATION f '

Consumers Power Cocpany Docket No. 50-329 Occket No. 50-330 This refers to the investigation conducted by the Office of Inspection and Enforcement at the Midland Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, Midland, Michigan, at your offices in Jackson, Michigan, and at Sechtel Corporation, Ann Arbor, Michigan, of activities authorized by NRC License No,'CPPR-31 and No. CPPR-32.

Curing this investigation conducted on various cates between December 11, 1978 and January 25, 1979, the following apparent item of noncompliance was identified.

i The Midland Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) contains the following:

Section 2.5.4.5.3, Fill, states: "All fill and backfill were placed according to Table 2.5-9."

' Tacle 2.5-9, Minicum Compaction Criteria, contains the following:

sections 2.5.4 and 3.8.5 with respect to the settle- .

FSAR Table 2.5-9 provides compaction criteria and zone designation both of which are design bases.

Inadvertently omittad from this table was the number "2" in the column used for " Zone Designation" for the " Support of Structures." Also inadvertantly omitted wara . the words "and sand" in the column used tta designate the

  • Soil Type" for the ' Support

' of Structures." FSAR Table 2.5-10 provides a

! definition of zone 2 materials. These materials l

were used consistent with the recommandations -:

contained in the Dames and Moore report included l in the PSAR. FSAR Table 2.5-14 summarizes contact stresses, estimated bearing capacity and f actors of safety for the supporting soils given in the table for each structural unit. However, some of these supporting soils specified in Table 2.5-14 were intentionally not the same as the design bases soils described- (cr intended to have been described) in Table 2.5-9. The supporting soils specified in 2.5-14 were those used for the l conservative calculations given in that table.
