ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Duke Power Company Docket No. 50-413 Catawba Unit 1 License No. NPF-35 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on August 26, 1987, through September 25, 1987, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.

In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1987), the violation is listed below:

Technical Specification 3.7.1.2 requires at least three independent steam generator auxiliary feedwater pumps and associated flow paths to be operable.

With one auxiliary feedwater pump inoperable, restore the required auxiliary feedwater pump to operable status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or be in at least hot standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in hot shutdown within the following 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />.

Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires tnat written procedures shall be established, implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A to Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2.

Catawba Nuclear Station Directive 3.1.15, Activities Affecting Station Operations or Operating Instructions, requires that permission be obtained from the Shift Supervisor or other Supervisor with operational control prior to removing from service an instrument or component that may affect unit operation.

Contrary to the above, pressure switch ICAPSS131 was removed from service at some point between July 17, 1986, and July 6, 1987, by shutting its isolation valve without obtaining permission frcm the Shift Supervisor or other Supervisor with operational control. This caused the flow path from Auxiliary Feedwater Pump 1B to the IC Steam Generator to be inoperable as it would have isolated under certain conditions and the licensee did not maintain the unit in an Operational Mode in which Technical Specification 3.7.1.2 did not apply.

This is a Severity Level IV Violation (Supplement I) applicable to Unit 1 only.

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Duke Power Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555, with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region II, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector, Catawba, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this 8712070334 B71210 gDR ADOCK 05000413 PDR

t ENCLOSURE 2 ENFORCEMENT CONFERENCE

SUMMARY

On November 6,1987, representatives of the Duke Power Company (DPC) met with the NRC at the NRC's request in the Region II office in Atlanta, Georgia. The conference was held to discuss the unauthorized isolation of an Auxiliary Feedwater (AFW) system pressure switch which rendered the AFW system unable to function as designed under certain cotditions. A list of conference attendees is contained in Attachment 1.

Following opening remarks given by M. L. Ernst, NRC, Deputy Regional Administrator, DPC gave a presentation addressing the NRC concerns raised by the isolation of the pressure switch.

An outline of the DPC presentation is contained herein as Attachment 2.

The DPC presentation showed that while the AFW system would have operated in an off-norma'l configuration, the isolation of the pressure switch would not have prevented the system from perform ng its intended function under any postulated i

conditions.

This meeting served to enhance Region II's understanding of the issue and DPC's plan to prevent recurrence of similar problems.

The NRC enforcement action concerning this issue is discussed in Enclosure 1.

AUXILIARY FEEDWATER SYSTEM Design Basis:

Assure sufficient feedwater supply to the steam l

generators to remove energy stored in the core and primary coolant in the event of a loss of normal feedwater.

Design Requirements:

Provide 491 gpm auxiliary feedwater flow to the S/G under the following conditions:

- Failure of any pump to start.

- No credit for flow to a faulted S/G.

- No operator action for thirty minutes

- S/G pressure at first safety I

setpoint plus 3% (1210 psig).

l l

t I

Postulated Conditions

- 1 CAPS 5131 Isolated.

- Feedwater line rupture at A S/G.

- Turbine Driven pump start and successful run for thirty seconds, then failure.

- Loss of normal feedwater.

Actual Capacity

- Immediate operator action available.

- 433 gpm supplied to 1D S/G at 1210 psig.

- Flows in excess of 491 supplied at lower l

S/G pressures.

- Capability to remove core and primary system heat without operator action to unisolate intact S/G.

CONCLUSION:

While the auxiliary feedwater system would have been operating in a configuration different from that described in the FSAR, i.e. supplying only one S/G and flowrate lower than assumed at 1210 psig, the isolation of pressure switch 1CA5131 would not have prevented the system from performing its intended function under any postulated conditions.
