APPENDIX A NOTICE OF VIOLATION Northeast Nuclear Energy Company Docket No. 50-423 Millstone Unit 3 License No. NPF-49 During NRC inspection.from January 20 to February 22, 1988, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.

Technical Specification 3.5.2 requires that two independent safety-related charging pumps be operable in Mode 3. . Technical Specification 3.0.4 does not allow changing modes unless the Limiting Conditions for Operation are met without reliance on action statements.

Contrary to the above, at 5:42 p.m. , January 29, 1988, the plant was taken from Mode 4 to Mode 3 with only one,of the two required charging pumps oper-able. The "A" charging pemp was inoperable until about 8:20 a.m., January 30, 1988 because its cooling water inlet and valves for the lubricating oil heat exchanger were closed.
