APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION New York Power Authority Docket No.
50-333 James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant License No. DPR-59 As a result of_the inspection conducted on August 8-19, 1988, and in accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C, the following violation was identified:
A.
Technical Specification 6.8(A) states in part, "Written procedures shall be established and implemented..... that meet or exceed the requirements and recommendations of Section 5 "Facility Administrative Policies and Procedures of ANSI (N) 18.7-1972...."
These procedures include those for work control and surveillance tests.
The following examples of the licensee not meeting the above technical specification requirement were identified:
1.
The licensee's work request No. 54981, approved on December 2, 1987 to remove pipe supports H10-63 and H10-74C for the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System minimum flow line, in notes on sketch for RHR East and West Crescents, attached to this work request, states:
"Temporarily disconnect existing pipe support to permit power brushing of piping reconnect support immediately thereafter."
Contrary to the above, pipe supports H10-63 and H10-74C were removed on or before January 21, 1988 and were not reconnected until after the NRC inspectors identified this concern on August 15, 1988.
2.
The licensee's Quality Assurance Program Section 17.2.5.) requires quality affecting activities be controlled.
Contrary to the above as of August 16, 1988 quality affecting activities for installing the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling system turbine auxiliary lube oil sump were not controlled in that unauthorized hose clamps were installed.
3.
The licensee's weekly surveillance test procedures for Low Pressure Coolant Injection Independent Power Supply, 125V and 24V batteries (MP-71.10, HP-71.12 and HP-71.14 respectively) require classifying the test as satisfactory and checking the "corrective action required" block when the electrolyte temperature of the pilot cell is between 90'F and 110'F (120 F for 24V batteries).

e APPENDIX A 2
Contrary to the above in each of the above tests performed on July 13,1988, July 20,1988, July 27,1988 and August 3, 1988 when the electrolyte temperature exceeded 90 F (but did not exceed 110 F), the test was classified satisfactory without checking the "corrective action required" block.
The above examples collectively constitute a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, New York Power Authority is hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of the letter which transmitted this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply, including: (1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
