Fort Calhoun Station
Licent.e No.:
DPR 40
During an NRC inspection conducted on October 26 through December 6,1997, three
violations of NRC requirements were identified, in accordance with the " General Statement
of hiicy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG 1600, the violations are
listed below:
A.
Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50, Criterion V, states, in part, that activities affecting
quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions, procedures, or drawings of a
type appropriate to the circumstances and shall be accomplished in accordance with
these instructions, procedures, or drawings.
f
Standing Order SO 01, " Conduct Of Operations," Revision 36, Step 6.1.3,
Section C and G, requires, in pert, that all necessary plant related
technical / administrative control room business must be conducted at a location and
in such a manner that neither licensed control room ooerator attentiveness nor the
professional atmosphere will be compromised, it further requires that nonoperations
personnel shall enter the control room only to discuss official business with the
control room crew.
Contrary to the above, on November 21,1997, the control coom crew failed to
maintain a professional atmosphere in the control room in that breakf ast was being
cooked in the main control room area and nonoperations personnel were eating in
the control room.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1)(50-285/9719-01).
B.
Appendix B of 10 CFR Part 50, Criterion V, states, in part, that activities affecting
s
quality shall be prescribed by documented instruction, procedures, or drawings of a
type appropriate to the circumstances.
Revision 11 of Operating Instruction OI-CO 5, " Containment Integrity," states, in
part, that the purpose of this operating instruction is to establish containment
integrity.
Contrary to the above, on November 19,1997, the inspectors identified that the
containment integrity operatirg instruction was inadequate because not all
containment penetrations needed to establish containment integrity were included in
the operating instruction.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1)(50-285/9719-02).

C.
Technical Specification 5.8.1 statea, in part, that written procedures and
administrative policies shall be established, implemented, and maintained that meet
or exceed the minimum requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.33.
Regulatory Guide 1.33, Appendix A, Section 1c, states, in part, that procedures
shall be written for equipment control (e.g., locking or tagging).
Standing Order SO-O 44, " Administrative Controls for the Locking of Components,"
Revision 64, Attachment 1, " Locked Components Checklist," requires that
Valve HCV 2812C, raw water !nlet to SI 2C bearing cooler, be locked. Step 7.1 of
Standing Order SO-O-44 states that locking devices shall at the very least provide a
limited physical restraint on the operation of the component.
Contrary to th , above, on December 3,1997,ine inspectors identified that the
lockb;; device on Valve HCV 2812C was improperly installed and would not have
provided the physical restraint to prevent operation of the valve.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplemen' 3 ~50-285/9719-03).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Omaha Public Power District is hereby
