ENCLOSURE NQ]n ! OF VIOLATION Oregon State University Docket No.: 50-243 TRIGA Mark-ll Reactor Facility License No.: R-106 EA 98-320 During an NRC inspection conducted on February 18-20, and May 6 and 11-13,1998 violations of NRC requirernents were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violations are listed below:
A.
Technical Specification 3.5.3 requires that the reactor not be operated unless the safety channels described in Table I are operabic. The safety channels in Table I include automatic and manual scrams for the reactor.
Contrary to the above, on February 17,1998, the reactor was operated for approximately 14 minutes without any of the automatic or manual scrams described in Table I being available or functional.
B.
Technical Specification 6.6.k requires that the licensee prepare and retain indefinitely updated, corrected, and as-built drawings of the facility.
Contrary to the above, a change was made to the reactor console wiring and the facility circuitry drawings were not updated and corrected or retained at the facility reflecting the change.
These violations represent a Severity Level 111 problem (Supplement 1).
Because the information in your letter of June 24,1998, met the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, no response to this Notice of Violation is required.
