Docket No.: 50-382 Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 License No.: NPF-38 During an NRC inspection conducted on May 3 through June 13,1998, violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violatiore are listed below:

A. Technical Specification 6.8.1.a requires, in part, that written procedures shall be implemented covering applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Appendix A, Section 1 requires that the licensee have administrative procedures.

Administrative Procedure OP-100-014, " Technical Specification and Technical Requirements Compliance," Revision 9, states, in part, if any system, subsystem, or component becomes unable to perform its intended safety function due to maintenance, then declare that equipment inoperable and enter the appropriate Technical Specification action.

Contrary to the above, on May 19,1998, from 6:45 a.m. to 7:15 a.m., Administrative Procedure OP-100-014 was not properly implemented in that Emergency Diesel Generator A was not declared inoperable and the appropriate Technical Specification action was not entered when Emergency Diesel Generator A was unable to perform its intended safety function due to maintenance that resulted in a missile door protecting the diesel fuel oil tank being opened.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1) (50-382/9809-01).

B. Technical Specification 6.8.1.f requires, in part, that written procedures shall be implemented covering Fire Protection Program implementation.

Administrative Procedure UNT-005-013, " Fire Protection Program," Revision 6, Section 5.2.1, required, in part, that impairments to the fire protection system including fire rated assemblies are controlled as specified in Procedure FP-001-015.

Fire Protection Procedure FP-001-015, " Fire Protection System Impairments,"

Revision 15, Attachment 8.4, " Plant Fire Doors," identified fire doors in the plant by number designation. Fire Door D150 is included in Attachment 8.4.

Contrary to the above, on May 21,1998, Administrative Procedure UNT-005-013 was not implemented in that an impairment to Fire Door D150 was not controlled. The fire door was not closed and latched and was therefore not capable of performing its design function.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1) (50-382/9809-02).

If you request withholding of such material, you_must specifically identify the portions of your response that you seek to have withheld and provide in detail the bases for your claim of withholding (e.g., explain why the disclosure of information will create an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy or provide the information required by 10 CFR 2.790(b) to support a request for withholding confidential commercial or financial information).
