ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Entergy Operations, Inc.

Docket Nos.:

50-313 Arkansas Nuclear One 50-368 i

License Nos.:

DPR-51 NPF-6 During an NRC inspection conducted on February 2 through March 15,1997, one 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:

l Unit 2 Technical Specification 6.8.1 states, in part, that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering surveillance and test activities of safety-related equipment.

Procedure 2304.105, Revision 16, " Unit 2 Excores Safety Channel B Calibration,"

l Supplement 2, " Refueling interval Calibration," Steps 8.3.4.A and 8.3.5.B, direct j

technicians to measure and record specified voltages and make necessary l

adjustments to return the voltages to within tolerance.

Contrary to the above, on February 14,1997, Unit 2 instrumentation and control technicians failed to recognize that voltages measured in Steps 8.3.4.A and 8.3.5.B were not within the required tolerance and thus did not make the necessary adjustments to place them within the required tolerance.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1) (Violation 50-368/9701-02).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Entergy Operations, Inc. 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 Regional Administrator, Region IV,611 Ryan Plaza Drive, Suite 400, Arlington, Texas 76011, and a copy to the NRC Resident inspector at the f acility 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 violations, and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Your response may reference or include previous docketed correspondence, if the correspondence adequately addresses the required response. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a l

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 Public Document Room, to the extent j

possible, it should not include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be placed in the PDR without redaction. However, if you find it necessary to 9705020234 970429 PDR ADOCK 05000313 G
