50-285 Fort Calhoun Station License:

OPR-40 During an NRC inspection conducted on February 1-29, 1988, violations of NRC requirements were identified.

The violations involved the failure to meet the fire brigade manning requirements specified in the Technical Specifications and the failure to follow procedures.

The fire brigade shall not include the minimum shift crew necessary for safe shutdown of the unit.

This requirement is being incorporated into the Technical Specifications with implementation by March 1979.

This is a Severity Level IV violation.
