ATTACHMENT I NOTICE OF VIOLATION GPU Nuclear Corporation Docket Nos. 50-289 Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station 50-320 As a result of the inspection conducted on July 20-24, 1987, and in accordance with the NRC Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2, Appendix C) the following violation was identified:
A.
Item V of Appendix E to 10 CFR 50 requires licensees who are authorized to operate a nuclear power facility to submit any changes to the emergency plan or procedures to the Commission as specified in 10 CFR 50.4(b)(5) within 30 days of such changes.
Contrary to the above, GPU Nuclear Corporation failed to submit to the NRC Revisions 1-04 " effective June 2,1987" and 1-03 (no effective date given) of " Operation of the Parsippany Technical Functions Center,"
5000-ADM-3054.01 (Rev.1-04, EP-033). This violation has been categorized as Severity IV per Item D of Supplement VIII to Appendix C to 10 CFR 2.
GPUN RESPONSE Prior to this violation, GPUN interpreted the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4 to apply strictly to procedures categorized as Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIP). Procedure 5000-ADM-3054.01, " Operation of the Parsippany Technical Functions Center (PTFC)," is a procedure controlled and distributed by the Technical Functions Division which had been previously categorized as an EPIP. Technical Functions considered this an engineering procedure rather than an emergency plan implementing procedure and did not distribute this procedure in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4.
Once identified by the NRC inspector, Procedure 5'000-ADM-3054.01 was immediately distributed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.4(b)(5) via GPUN letter 5211-87-2147 dated July 24, 1987.
l Subsequently, a review was conducted to ensure a similar situation did not i
exist regarding other procedures.
It was determined frorr this review that the i
TMI-1 Emergency Dose Calculation Manual (EDCM) and GPUN procedure j
8200-ADM-1720.02, Emergency Public Information Plan and Procedure (this j
procedure was under development at the time of the review) could also be
{
considered emergency plan implementing procedures.
j i
Both of these procedures have been forwarded to the NRC in accordance with j
10 CFR 50.4 and action has been taken to ensure that future revisions will be l
forwarded to the NRC.

I In addition to-the above stated review, a memo' was sent to the GPUN Division
' Safety Review Coordinators by the GPUN Manager, Emergency Preparedness. This memo addressed this violation and reinforced the need to be cognizant of the requirements of,10 CFR 50.4 for all future revisions to procedures.
With the above steps taken, GPUN believes that full compliance has been achieved in transmitting EPIPs to the NRC.-
