During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on March 1 through April 20, 1986, violations of NRC requirements were identified. In

accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforce-i ment Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1985), the violations are listed below:

A. Technical Specifications 4.11.1.2, 4.11.2.2, 4.11.2.3 and 4.11.4.1 require that the cumulative dose contributions from liquid and gaseous effluents for the current calendar quarter and year be determined at least once per 31 days.

. Contrary to the above, the contributions from liquid and gaseous effluents for the current calendar quarter or year were not calculated within the 31 day span preceding January 29, 1986.

This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I), applicable to both units.

B. Technical Specification 6.8.1.a requires that current written approved procedures, be established implemented and maintained covering reactor startup and safety related equipment operation.

1. The Reactivity Balance Calculation procedure (OP-0-A-6100-06),
requires in step 2.6 that if the rods are withdrawn to the upper limit j of the ECP band and criticality has not yet been reached, all control banks must be reinserted and a recheck of the calculations performed.
2. Operations Management Procedure 2.5, section 6.6 requires that the operator ensure redundant equipment is operable prior to removing equipment from. service.

Contrary to the above:

1. On March 11, 1986, McGuire Unit I was being taken critical when the control rods were withdrawn to the withdrawal limit specified in the
reactivity balance procedure and the control rods were not inserted as required.
2. On March 12, 1986 train 'B' of containment spray and train 'A' of SSPS (solid state protection system) were removed from service simulta- '

neously. Thus, both trains of containment spray were removed from service simultaneously.
