NPF-4, NPF-7 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on May 15-19, 1989, violations of NRC requirements were identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1989), the violations are listed below:

A. 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V as implemented by the Virginia Electric and Power Compuny QA Topical Report (VEP-1-4A) requires in-part that, activities affecting quality shall be prescribed by documented instructions or procedures and shall be accomplished in accordance with these instructions or procedures.

Addendum A, paragraph A.2 states that welds that are shown by radiography to have incomplete fusion are unacceptable.

Contrary to the above, on May 16, 1989, seven film packages for welds in the Feedwater System had incorrect line identification permanently radiographer on the films. In addition, approximately li inches of incomplete fusion in the weld at break point 851 had not been rejected by the licensee in accordance with the approved procedure.

This is a Severity Level IV violation (Supplement 1-D).

Relative to fire protection, these requirements are implemented, by the North Anna Fire Protection Manual

" Fire Protection Program" Section 3.5.7 which states, in part, that a firewatch shall be required during any work involving ignition sources when the work is performed in a safety-related area.

Contrary to the above, on May 17, 1989, activities were not accomplished in accordance with the above, in that an employee assigned to firewatch ,

duty was observed, by NRC, to be sleeping on duty in the Unit 1 containment building, while welding was in process. This individual was working to Work Order 88-11, under Radiation Work Permit 1885.
