NOTICE OF VIOLATION Northern States Power Company Docket Nos. 50-282; 50-306 Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant License Nos. DPR-42; DPR-60 I

During an NRC inspection conducted from January 8 through February 20,1997,a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violation is listed below:

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Cri-a V, " Instructions, Procedures, and l

Drawings," required, in part, tnat 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 l

with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.

Contrary to the above, on February 19,1997, during movements of heavy loads with a mobile crane in the Unit 2 side of the plant screenhouse, Procedure D58, Revision 26, " Control of Heavy Loads," was not appropriate l

to the circumstances because it did not contain adequate administrative controls for handling heavy loads over or in proximity to safe shutdown equipment located in the screenhouse nor instructions for evaluating the use of mobile cranes from a reactor safety standpoint in general.

This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement 1).

I Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Northern States Power Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555 with a copy to the NRC Resident inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation:

(1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation, (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved, (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violation, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Your response may reference or include previous docketed l

correspondence, if the correspondence adequately addresses the required response. If an l

adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a i

Demand for information may be issued as to why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken.

Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.

Because your response will be placed in the NRC Pubic Document Room (PDR), to the extent possible, it should not include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without redaction. If personal privacy or proprietary information in occc:sary to provide an acceptable response, then please provide a bracketed copy of your response that identifies the information that should be i

protected and a redacted copy of your response that deletes such information. If you request withholding of such material, you must specifically identify the portions of your response that you seek to have withheld and provide in detail the bases for your claim of withholding (e.g., explain why the 'Jisclosure of information will create an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy or provide the information required by 10 CFR 2 790(b) to support a request for withholding confidential commercial or financial information). If safeguards information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21.
