ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Georgia Power Company Docket Nos. 50-321, 50-366 Hatch License Nos. DPR-57, NPF-5 The following violation was identified during an inspection conducted on May 6-10, 1985. The Severity Level was assigned in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C).

Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established, implemented and maintained covering the applicable procedures o recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978.
