NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Arizona Nuclear Power Project Docket No. 50-528

P. O. Box 52034 License No. NPF-41

As a result of the inspection conducted on June 3 through July 31, 1985, and

in accordance with NRC Enforcement Policy, 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C,

47 FR 9987, the following violation was identified.

Technical Specification 6.6.1.a requires that the Commission be notified

of Reportable Events, and a report be submitted pursuant to the

requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.73.

10 CFR Part 50.73 requires, in part, that a Licensee Event Report be

submitted within thirty days after discovery of any operation or

condition prohibited by the plant's Technical Specifications.

Contrary to the above, on April 23, 1985, the licensee discovered that

the Fuel Building Ventilation Monitor (RU-145) was inoperable, and as a

result had been in a condition since April 19, 1985 where no iodine

sampling of the fuel building ventilation system had occurred. This

condition, is prohibited by Technical Specification 3.3.3.9.b which

requires in part, that at a minimum, iodine samples of the fuel building

ventilation system be an.'.yzed at least once per twelve hours. Licensee

Event Report 85-32, describing this event, was submitted to the

Commission on June 14, 1985; a period in excess of thirty days after

discovery.

This is a severity level V Violation (Supplement 1).

Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, Arizona Public Service Company is

hereby required to submit to this office within thirty days of the date of

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 items of noncompliance;

and (3) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Consideration may be given to extending your response time for good cause

shown.
