            During an NRC inspection conducted on July 29 - August 12, 1985 a violation of
            NRC requirements was identified. The violation involved conducting startup test
            program test activities not fully in accordance with the governing procedures,
j            In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC En-
            forcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1985), the violation is listed
            below.
            A.      10 CFR 50 Appendix B Criterion V requires in part that " activities affect-
                    ing quality shall be prescribed by documented procedures and shall be ac-
                  complished in accordance with these procedures." Technical Specification
i                6.8.1 contains similar requirements.
                  Contrary to the above, during the startup testing program three examples
                  were identified wherein test personnel did not implement their governing
                  procedures for activities affecting quality. First, on August 8, 1985,
                  while performing a control rod drive friction test on selected control
*
                  rods, test personnel did not connect the pressure differential test box
                  with the control rod fully inserted and conduct the settling friction test
                  on rod 18-27 with the cooling water valve closed as required in procedure
                  STP-5.8.2. Second, during inspector review of test results on August 9,
                  1985, it was noted that test personnel did not prepare a test exception
                  for those level indicators (1821-LT-154/155 and 1C61-LI-004) that did not
j                  meet the test acceptance criteria of STP-9.8.1 as required by the admini-
                  strative procedure SP-12-075.01. Third, during inspector review of test
                  results on August 11, 1985, it was noted that test personnel did not
                  evaluate the settling friction test of control rod 18-27 in the manner
4
                  prescribed in procedure STP-5.8.2 in that the rod had been identified as
'
                  having passed the test acceptance criteria, whereas the analysis performed
                  as prescribed in the procedure showed that the rod (18-27) did not satisfy.
                  the acceptance criteria.
;'                The consequences of each of the above procedure non-compliances on plant
                  operations, testing and safety are minimal and each item was corrected by
                  the licensee when identified. When considered together, these examples
                  constitute a violation. This is a Severity Level V violation
                  (Supplement I).
!          Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Shoreham Nuclear Power Station
i          is hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of
            the letter which transmitted this Notice, a written statement or explanation in
            reply, including: (1) the corrective steps which have been taken and the
            results achieved; (2) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid further
            violations; and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Where good
i
            cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending this response time.
l-          Since item (1) was reviewed by the inspector and is documented in this r'eport
l          you need not address this action item in your reply.
