NOTICE OF VIOLATION Consumers Power Company Docket No. 50-255 As a result of the inspection conducted during the period of November 19 through December 23, 1985, and in accordance with the " General Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1985),

the following violation was identified:

10 CFR 50.72 (b)(2)(i) requires reporting within four hours, an event discovered during plant shutdown conditions, which had it been found during reactor operation, would have constituted serious degradation of principal safety barriers.

Technical Specification 4.5.2 requires containment local leakrates to be less than 0.6L, (65,200 sccm).

Contrary to the above, testing performed on December 4, 1985, determined that the local leakrate for a containment penetration (78,913 sccm) exceeded 0.60L,,

the allowable leakage value, and this was not reported to the NRC until December 16, 1985.

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

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply, including for each violation: (1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
