ENCLOSURE 1

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Tennessee Valley Authority Docket Nos. 50-327 and 50-328

Sequoyah Units 1 and 2 License Nos. DPR-77 and DPR-79

The following violation was identified during an inspection conducted on April 6 -

May 5, 1985. The Severity Level was assigned in accordance with the NRC Enforce-

ment Policy (10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C).

Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be esta-

blished, implemented and maintained covering activities referenced in

Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, February 1978. Paragraph 8

of the Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.33 requires specific procedures for

surveillance tests. Surveillance Instruction SI-82 was established to

conduct surveillance activities on radiation monitors.

Contrary to the above, as of April 4, 1985, Surveillance Instruction-82

was not adequately established and was not implemented in that:

1. Testing of radiation monitor RM 90-101 was conducted without the moni-

tor functions blocked as required by this procedure. This resulted

in an unnecessary auxiliary building isolation.

2. The procedure does not incorporate technical information concerning

circuit behavior after incorporation of time delay modifications to

the radiation monitor circuitry. This contributed to the unnecessary

auxiliary building isolation.

This is a Severity Level V violation. This violation applies to both units

(Sur:plement I).

Pursuant to 10 CFR.2.201, you are required to submit to this office within 30

days of the date of this Notice, a written statement or explanation in reply,

, including: (1) admission or denial of the alleged violations; (2) the reasons

for the violations if admitted; (3) the corrective steps which have been taken

and the results achieved; (4) corrective steps which will be taken to avoid

further violations; and (5) the date when full compliance will be achieved.

Security or safeguards information should be submitted as an enclosure to

facilitate withholding it from public disclosure as required by 10 CFR 2.790(d)

or 10 CFR 73.21.
