ENCLOSURE 1 NOTICE OF VIOLATION Docket Nos. 50-369 and 50-370 Duke Power Company McGuire Nuclear Station License Nos. NPF-9 and NPF-17 During the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted on February 13-17, 1989 and February 27 - March 3,1989, 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 (1989), the violation is listed below:

Technical Specification 6.8.1.a requires written procedures to be established implemented, and maintained covering the applicable procedures recommended in Appendix A of Regul atory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978, Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978, Section 9.a, states in part, that maintenance that can affect the performance of safety-related equipment should be properly preplanned, and performed in accordance with written procedures, documented instructions, or drawing appropriate to the circumstances.

Contrary to the above, 1.

On February 15, 1989, a maintenance crew was observed working on Work Request number 13468 without following the appropriate procedure.

The procedure,- MP/0/A/7400/04, Diesel Engine Cooling Water Heater Circulating Pump Removal and Replacement, approved 3/15/88, was still enclosed in the work package when work was being performed. Action being taken by the mechanic involved pump disassembly which was not part of the approved procedure.

2.

On February 15, 1989, a maintenance crew was observed performing work with inadequate preplanning and an inadequate procedure or inadequate documented instructions. Work Request number 501439, was to cover the removal and replacement of the 2B diesel fuel injector 'O' rings, using procedure number MP/0/A/7400/16 Diesel Engine Cylinder Head Corrective Maintenance, Change 14. The procedure used was too broad in scope for the work being performed.

Written direction was not provided to specify specific steps to be followed to complete the task. After work had started, a special tool, not identified in the required tools section of the procedure, was identified by a supervisor as

Docket Nos. 50-369 and 50-370 McGuire Nuclear Station License Nos. NPF-9 and NPF-17 being needed for the task.

The supervisor provided oral direction to the workers on the use of the tool.

It was also determined that the fuel line from the fuel pump to the injector would have to be removed prior to injector removal.

The procedural steps covering this line removal were not found in the procedure until after the removal of the first injector.

Adequate documented instructions were not provided for a task demonstrated to be beyond the normal skill of the craft.

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

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, McGuire Nuclear Station and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice. This reply should be clearly marked as a " Reply to a Notice of Violation" and should include [for each violation]:

(1) admission or denial of the violation, (2) the reason for the violation if admitted, (3) the corrective' steps which have been taken and the results achieved, (4) the corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further violations, and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time.

If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order may be issued to show cause why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken.
