NOTICE OF VIOLATION 1 l 1
Duke Power Company Docket Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 1 Catawba Nuclear Station License Nos. NPF-35 and NPF-52 l a
During an NRC inspection conducted on January 12 - February 15. 1997.
violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with NUREG 1600
" General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions." the i violations are listed below: l l
A. 10 CFR 50. Appendix B. Criterion V. Instructions. Procedures, and ;
Drawings, as implemented by Duke Power Company Topical Quality Assurance !
(0A) Program (Duke-1-A) requires that activities affecting quality shall be accomplished in accordance with documented prescribed procedures.
Catawba procedures. 0AG-1 Receipt. Inspection, and Control of QA Condition Material. Parts, and Components, revision 34, and NPP-311.
Receipt. Ins)ection, and Testing of 0A Condition Commodities, revision
- 4. require tlat received QA condition materials and parts designated as OA hold status shall be stored in a OA controlled hold area until a final 0A disposition has been made.
Contrary to the above, as of February 2. 1997, activities affecting quality were not accomplished in accordance with documented prescribed procedures in that received QA condition materials were not stored in a l QA controlled hold area and were released for use without the required l OA final dispositions. Specifically, the receipt inspection documentation for the Spare Parts Diesel Generator (SPDG). dated August 28, 1987 designated the SPDG and all parts as 0A hold status, to be ,
stored in a OA level C storage area. All parts were to receive an i evaluation against Duke Power Diesel Generator Specification CNS 1301.00-00-0002, prior to use; however, the SPDG was not stored in a OA i controlled hold area and numerous parts including pistons, cylinders. l turbocharger, and shaft driven pumps, had been released for use without the documented QA final disposition.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
B. Part 70.24(a)(3), of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, requires, in part, each licensee authorized to possess special nuclear material (SNM) in a quantity exceeding those identified. to maintain applicable emergency procedures and conduct drills to ensure personnel are withdrawn to an area of safety when a criticality alarm sounds in areas where SNM is handled, used or stored.
Contrary to the above, as of January 17. 1985, for Unit 1 and May 15.
1986, for Unit 2. the licensee never developed and maintained criticality emergency procedures or conducted emergency drills for areas where sufficient quantities of special nuclear material are handled, used or stored (new fuel unloading and storage areas). Furthermore the licensee's initial exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR 70.24(a)
Enclosure 1 9704010076 970317 PDR ADOCK 05000413 G PDR
4 Notice of Violation 2 (contained as aart of its original NRC Material License for possessing SNM) expired w1en the Catawba Unit 1 and 2 construction permits were converted to operating licenses in 1985 and 1986 respectively. At that time, the licensee failed to implement appropriate emergency 3rocedures, or renew its exemptions. Since then, new fuel storage areas lave been used to handle and store new fuel assemblies on a regular basis prior to each unit refueling outage.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201. Duke Power Com)any is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to t1e U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. ATTN: Document Control Desk.
