| | A. Units 1 and 2 Technical Specification (TS) Section 3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves, states that the containment isolation valves specified in Table 3.6-1 shall be operable with isolation times as shown in Table 3.6-1. Additionally, Section 4.6.3.1.3 states that the isolation time of each power operated or automatic valve of Table 3.6-1 shall be determined to be within its limit when tested pursuant to specification 4.0.5. |
| | Section 4.0.5. Surveillance Requirements For Inservice Inspection and Testing of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Class 1, 2 and 3 Components, shall be applicable as follows: |
| | Inservice inspection of ASME code ' Class 1, 2 and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME code Class 1, 2 and 3 pumps and valves shall be performed in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. |
| | 10 CFR 50.55a. (g),(4). (ii), states that inservice examinations of components and inservice tests to verify operational readiness of pumps and valves whose function is required for safety shall comply with the requirements of the code (ASME Section XI). |
| | : 1. ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code-1974, Section XI, Paragraph f IMV3410 (c)(3), states that if an increase in stroke time of 25 percent or more from the previous test for valves with stroke times greater than ten seconds or 50 percent or more for valves with stroke tires less than or equal to ten seconds is observed, test frequency shall be increased to once each month until corrective action is taken, at which time the original test frequency shall be resumed. |

ENCLOSURE NOTICE OF VIOLATION
_ Virginia Electric and Power Company Docket Nos. 50-338, 50-339 North Anna License Nos. NPF-4, NPF-7 During the Nuclear Regulatory Conunission (NPC) inspection conducted on January _25 - 29 and February 8 - 12, 1988, violations of NRC requirements were identified. The violations involved failure to adequately implement the Inservice Testing (IST) Program and failure to cor. duct adequate audits of this program, in accordance with the "General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcercent Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1986), the violations are listed below:
A. Units 1 and 2 Technical Specification (TS) Section 3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves, states that the containment isolation valves specified in Table 3.6-1 shall be operable with isolation times as shown in Table 3.6-1. Additionally, Section 4.6.3.1.3 states that the isolation time of each power operated or automatic valve of Table 3.6-1 shall be determined to be within its limit when tested pursuant to specification 4.0.5.
Section 4.0.5. Surveillance Requirements For Inservice Inspection and Testing of American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code Class 1, 2 and 3 Components, shall be applicable as follows:
Inservice inspection of ASME code ' Class 1, 2 and 3 components and inservice testing of ASME code Class 1, 2 and 3 pumps and valves shall be performed in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.
10 CFR 50.55a. (g),(4). (ii), states that inservice examinations of components and inservice tests to verify operational readiness of pumps and valves whose function is required for safety shall comply with the requirements of the code (ASME Section XI).
- 1. ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code-1974,Section XI, Paragraph f IMV3410 (c)(3), states that if an increase in stroke time of 25 percent or more from the previous test for valves with stroke times greater than ten seconds or 50 percent or more for valves with stroke tires less than or equal to ten seconds is observed, test frequency shall be increased to once each month until corrective action is taken, at which time the original test frequency shall be resumed.
In any case, any abnormality or erratic action shall be reported, 66 e80526 kij62gCK0500033e 0

- 2. ASME Boiler ano Vessels Code-1974,Section XI, Paragraph IMV 3410(G),
states that if a valve fails to exhibit the required change of valve stem or disk position by this testing, corrective action shall be initiated immediately. If ' the condition is not, or cannot be corrected within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />, the valve shall be declared inoperative.
When corrective action is required as a result of tests made during cold shutdown, the condition shall be corrected before startup. A retest showing acceptable operation shall be run following any required corrective action before the valve is returned to service.
Contrary to the above, when the following Unit 1 and 2 TS valves failed to exhibit tne required position change, during routine surveillance testing inadequate or no corrective action was taken prior to performing a retest and returning the valves to an operable status:
2-TV-CC-201B 1-TV-CC-102C 2-TV-CC-2028 1-TV-CH-1204A 2-TV-CC-202C 2-TV-BD-2000 2-TV-CC-202D 2-TV-BD-200F 2-TV-CC-202E 2-TV-CV-250A 2-TV-CC-204A 2-TV-SI-201 2-TV-CC-204B 1-TV-MS-111A 2-TV-CC-205B 2-SW-MOV-222A This list is not intended to be all-inclusive.
