APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Portland General Electric Company Docket No. 50-344 121 S. W. Salmon Street License No. NPF-1 Portland, Oregon 97204 During an NRC inspection conducted on May 16-20, 1988, one violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1987), the violation is listed below:

A. 10 CFR 20.201(b) requires that each licensee make such surveys as (1) are necessary to comply with regulations in 10 CFR 20 and (2) are reasonable under the circumstances to evaluate the extent of radiation hazards that may be present. As defined in 10 CFR 20.201(a), "survey" means an evaluation of the radiation hazards incident to the production, use, release, disposal, or presence of radioactive materials or other sources of radiation under a specific set of conditions.

Contrary to the above, on May 8,1988, no survey was made to determine the direct dose to a reactor operator's hand from handling highly contaminated plastic tubing. The dose from residual contamination found on his hand was appropriately esaluated.

This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement IV).
