Docket Nos. 50-327, 50-328
Tennessee Valley Authority
ATTN: Mr. S. A. White
Manager of Nuclear Power

Gentlerren:
SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-327/87-13 AND 50-328/87-13)
This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted b,
W. Tobin on March 2-6, 1987. The inspection included a review of activities
authorized for your Sequoyah Nuclear Plant.
At the conclusion of the
inspection, the findings were discussed with those members of your staff
identified in the enclosed inspection report.
Areas examined during the inspection are identified in the report. Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
The inspection findings indicate that certain activities appeared to violate
NRC requirements.
The violation, references to pertinent requirements, and
elements to be included in your response are described in the enclosed Notice
of Violation. This violation involves failure to follow security procedures
and is classified as a Severity Level IV violation.
At the March 6th exit meeting, the Sequoyah Plant Manager committed to the
completion of Design Change Request No. 2268 (upgrading of barriers in the
!
Control Room walls) prior to the startup of any Sequoyah unit. In a subsequent
telephone conversation on March 19, 1987, the licensee informed W. Tobin that
they were planning to submit a proposal to the NRC Office of Nuclear Materials
Safety and Safeguards which apparently would revise the Plant Managers commit-
ment.
Please inform us within 30 days of this letter of your plans regarding
these barriers.
Details of this commitment are considered Safeguards
Information arid are discussed in paragraph 3 of this report.
