L APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company Docket No. 50-213 Hartford, Connecticut 06101 License No. OPR-61 As a result of the inspection conducted on June 14-26, 1985, and in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C), the following violations were identified:

1. Technical Specification (TS) 6.8 requires written procedures to be established, implemented and maintained. Section 6.5 of Procedure ACP 1.0-3.1, Preparation, Review and Disposition of Plant Design Change Requests (PDCRs), and Section 6.2.4 of Procedure NE0 3.12, Safety Evaluations, require a determination of the effect of a proposed modification on plant TSs.

TS 3.22.E.1, Fire Detection Systems, requires 8 out of 10 control room smoke detectors to remain operable.'

Contrary to the above, during the review of PDCR 713, Process Computer Re-placement, in April-May 1985, neither the corporate or site engineering design review nor the safety evaluation completed in accordance with Procedures ACP 1.0-3.1 and NE0 3.12, respectively, determined that the removal of the 3 con-trol room smoke detectors detailed in the PDCR 713 work scope would violate TS 3.22.E.1, a condition that requires an NRC approved TS change prior to implementation.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).

2. TS 6.5.1 requires that the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC) function to advise the Station Superintendent on all proposed changes or modifications to plant systems or equipment that affect nuclear safety.

Contrary to the above, on May 9, 1985 the PORC did not function to advise the Station Superintendent of the nuclear safety affect of PDCR 713, Process Com-puter Replacement, in that the PORC failed to identify that the removal of 3 control room smoke detectors detailed in the PDCR 713 work scope would violate TS 3.22.E.1 which requires 8 out of 10 control room detectors to re-main operable.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
