I)0b March 20, 1986 EN 85-29A 0FFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT NOTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT ENFORCEMENT ACTION Licensee: Mississippi Power and Light Company Grand Gulf
-Docket No. 50-416 i
Subject:
WITHDRAWAL 0F PROPOSED CIVIL PENALTY - $125,000 1
i By EN 85-29 dated August 12, 1985 the Commission was informed that a Motice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of One Hundred Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($125,000) was issued on March 21, 1985 to 2
Mississippi Power and Light Company. This action was based on five alleged material false statements related to development of technical specifications governing operation of Unit 1 at the Grand Gulf nuclear power plant located near Port Gibson, Mississippi. The alleged material false statements were contained in a number of company submittals to the NRC made from December 1980 to August 1984. The base civil penalty had been mitigated by 50% in recognition of the fact that informality in the NRC's review process may have contributed to the problem.
The licensee responded to the Notice in a letter dated April 19, 1985. After careful consideration of the licensee's response, the staff concluded after consultation with the Commission that four of the five alleged violations should, in whole or in part, be withdrawn or recategorized to reduce the severity level and that the $25,000 fine proposed for each should be withdrawn. The staff also concluded that the fifth alleged violation should stand as originally noticed but that the $25,000 fine proposed for it should be withdrawn in view of the mistakes made in the other citations. This completes the NRC's action in this i
matter.
