Dca Novembsr 6, 1986 EN 86-83 0FFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT NOTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT ENFORCEMENT ACTION Licensee: Arkansas Power and Light Company (Arkansas Nuclear One - Unit 1)

Docket No. 50-313

Subject:

PROPOSED IMPOSITION OF CIVIL PENALTY - $50,000 This is to inform the Commission that a Notice of Violation and Proposed Imposition of Civil Penalty in the amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) will be issued on or about November 12, 1986 to Arkansas Power and Light Company for the Arkansas Nuclear One - Unit 1 facility. This action is based on violations identified during the NRC's Safety System Functional Inspection (SSFI), the most significant of which involved the modification of the steam supply lines to the turbine driven Emergency Feedwater pump. The actual implementation of the modification deleted check valves without a proper design review and evaluation. The purpose of the check valves was to prevent the simultaneous blowdown of both steam generators for certain main steam line break accidents.

It should be noted that the licensee has not been specifically informed of the enforcement action. The Regional Administrator has been authorized by the Director, Office of Inspection and Enforcement, to sign this action. The schedule of issuance and notification is:

Mailing of Notice November 12, 1986 Telepl:one Notification of Licensee November 12, 1986 A news relcase has been prepared and will be issued after the licensee receives the Notice. The State of Arkansas will be notified.

The licensee has thirty days from the date of the Notice in which to respond.

Following NRC evaluation of the response, the civil penalty may be remitted, mitigated, or imposed by Order.
