APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION GPU Nuclear Corporation Docket No.

50-219 Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station License No. DPR-16 As a result of an inspection conducted on August 16 - 20, 1993, the following violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C), the violations are listed below:

A.

10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Paragraph IV requires, in part, that measures shall be established to assure that applicable regulatory requirements which are necessary to assure adequate quality are suitably included or referenced in the documents for procurement of material, equipment, and services.

Contrary to the above, as of August 20,1993, appropriate measures were not established to assure that adequate quality was suitably included in documents for procurement of services, in that a contract, effective February 8,1993, was issued to a vendor, Halliburton NUS, whose QA program for meteorological instrument calibration services had not been approved by GPU Nuclear QA (GPUNQA).

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

B.

Technical Specification 6.8 requires that written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained that meet or exceed the requirements of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 2. Regulatory Guide 1.33, Rev. 2, Appendix A,Section I requires Administrative Procedures including Procedure Review and Approval. Procedure 1000-ADM-1218.01, written pursuant to Regulatory Guide 1.33, states in paragraph 4.8.1 that a documented review at least every two years is required for plans or procedures identified as within QA scope, which includes procedures for calibration of meteorological monitoring instrumentation.

Contrary to the above, as of August 20,1993, the licensee had no documented biennial review of meteorological instrument calibration procedures.

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

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, GPU Nuclear Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, NITN: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555 with a copy to the Regional Administrator Region I, 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). This reply should be clearly marked as " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the 0019 OFFICIAL RECORD COPY PDR

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. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order may be issued to show cause why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked, or why such action as may be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
