h ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duke Power Company Docket Nos. 50-413 and 50-414 Catawba License Nos. NPF-35 and CPPR-117 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted cn May 13-16 and June 2, 1986, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. The violation involved failure to maintain radiation exposure records in accordance with
~
instructions contained in Form NRC-5. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1986), the violation is listed below:
10 CFR 20.401 requires that each licensee maintain records showing the radiation exposures of all individuals for whom personnel monitoring is required and that such records shall be kept on Form NRC-5 are equivalent, in accordance with the instructions contained in that form.
Form NRC-5, Item 5, requires that unless the lenses of the eyes are protected with eye shields having a tissue equivalent density thickness of at least 700 milligrams per square centimeter, dose recorded as whole body dose should include the dose delivered through a tissue equivalent absorber having a density thickness of 300 milligrams per square centimeter.
Contrary to the above, prior to May 16, 1986, radiation exposure records were not kept in accordance with the instructions contained in Form NRC-5 in that the lenses of the eyes were not shielded by at least 700 milligrams per square centimeter of material but the recorded whole body doses included only dose delivered through a tissue equivalent absorber having a density thickness of 1000 milligrams per square centimeter rather than 300 milligrams per square centimeter as required.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement IV).
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Duke Power Company is hereby required to submit to this Office within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply including: (1) admission or denial of the violation, (2) the reason for the violation if admitted, (3) the corrective steps which have been taken and the results achieved, (4) the corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations, and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.
