The violation involved failure to follow instruction PMI-8.2 in that the i

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 50, Appendix B, Criterion V, and the accepted Quality Assurance (QA)

Contrary to the above, on July 15, 1986, the Assistant Plant Manager signed for the review of ECN P-0859.
