NOTICE OF VIOLATION Commonwealth Edison Company Docket Nos. 50-454; 50-455 l
As a result of the inspection conducted on September 1 - October 1, 1987, and in accordance with the " General Policy and Procedures for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (196'd. the following violation was identified:
10 CFR 50.59(a)(1) requires that the licensee obtain commission approval prior to making changes in the facility as described in the safety analysis report, if the proposed change involves a change in the Technical Specifications or involves an unreviewed safety question.
10 CFR 50.59(b)(1) requires that the licensee maintain records of all changes to the facility made pursuant to this section, to the extent that these changes constitute changes in the facility as described in the safety analysis report. These records must include a written safety evaluation which provides the basis for the determination that the change does not involve an unreviewed safety question.
Byron administrative procedure BAP 330-2, " Temporary Alterations," Paragraph A, requires that temporary alterations (changes) to all plant systems be performed in accordance with this procedure.
However, as an exception, temporary alterations may be made by other procedures (e.g., surveillance tests) that meet certain notification and verification requirements, provided that control of the temporary alteration is transferred to BAP 330-2, if the alteration must stay installed following completion of the procedure.
BAP 330-2T), " Temporary Alteration Log Sheet," implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.59(b)(1) and BAP 330-2.
Contrary to the above, on November 11, 1985, a test manifold remained installed in line IVQO2A4B of the containment purge (VQ) system following completion of a surveillance test.
No written verification, in accordance with BAP 330-2T1, was made to determine that the continued installation of this test manifold did not constitute an unreviewed safety question.
This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement I). (454/87038-01(DRP))
Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, you are required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of this Notice a written statement or explanation in reply to this violation, including:
(1) corrective action taken and the results achieved; (2) corrective action to be taken to avoid further violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.
Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause shown.
