NOTICE OF VIOLATION Centerior Service Company Docket No. 50-440 l Perry Nuclear Power Plant License No. NPF-58 j During an NRC inspection conducted on April 21 through 24,1997, a violation of NRC ]

requirements was identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and  !

Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions" (Enforcement Policy), NUREG-1600, the violation is listed below: I 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, " Instructions, Procedures, and Drawings," requires, in part, that activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by instructions, procedures, or drawings of a type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions, procedures, or drawings.

Perry Administrative Procedure (PAP)-0522, Revision 7, " Instruction Changes," states, in part, that non-intent conditional changes receive approval from two members of plant management staff knowledgeable in the affected area, at least one of whom is either the Shift Supervisor (SS) or the Unit Supervisor (US); and that the change is assigned an effective date and is implemented in the respective instruction.

Contrary to the above, on December 8,1995, the licensee performed surveillance instructions SVI-E32-T5400-E, "MSIV Leakage Control System - Steamline B Bleedoff Flow Channel Calibration ,for 1E32-N053E " and SVI-E32-T5400-J, "MSIV Leakage Control (

System - Steamline C Bleedoff Flow Channel Calibration for 1E32-N053J," before issuing /

non-intent conditional procedure / instruction changes (PICS) that changed the expected relay contact reference voltage from 0 Vac to 120 Vac. The PlCs were subsequently approved on January 9,1996.

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

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR Part 2.201, Centerior Service 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 Regional Administrator, Region lit, and 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).
