ENCLOSURE 1

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Florida Power Corporation Docket No. 50-302

Crystal River Unit 3 License No. DPR-72

During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on

November 13 - December 15, 1987, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.

In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC

Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1987), the violation is listed

below:

TS 6.8.1.a requires the implementation of written procedures for those

activities reconnended in Appendix "A" of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November

1972.

Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix "A", Section A.3 recomends procedures

for equipment control, and Section C.19.(2) recomends procedures for

operation of the onsite AC electrical system.

Compliance procedure CP-115, In-Plant Equipment Clearance and Switching

Orders, specifies in step 4.2 that equipment clearances which remain

active for greater than 30 days must be certified every 30 days to

visually verify the clearance tags are legible, attached to the correct

equipment, and that components are in their specified position.

Operating procedure OP-703, Plant Distribution System, step 5.18.10

requires that the Engineered Safeguart.' (ES) 4160v ES Bus 3A undervoltage

interlocks be bypassed prior to deenergizing this bus.

Contrary to the above;

a. As of December 7, 1987, seventeen equipment clearances active

for greater than 30 days did not have the required certification

performed,

b. On October 14, 1987, the 4160v ES Bus 3A was deenergized without

bypassing the associated undervoltage interlocks. This action

resulted in an inadvertent actuation of the ES system.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplemnt I).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Florida Power Corporation is hereby

required to submit a written statement or explanation to the Nuclear Regulatory

Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555, with a copy to

the Regional Administrator, Region II, [IF APPLICABLE: and a copy to the NRC

Resident Inspector, Crystal River 3,] within 30 days of the date of the letter
