SUBJECT: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
(NRC INSPECTION REPORTS 50-369/86-03 AND 50-370/86-03)
This refers to the inspection conducted on January 22-23, 1986, at the McGuire
Nuclear Station in Cornelius, North Carolina, which included a review of
certain protected area barriers. As a result of a previous NRC inspection at
the Oconee Nuclear Station, a significant failure to comply with NRC regulatory
requirements was identified by '.he licensee at McGuire, and accordingly, the NRC's
concerns about the inspection findings were discussed by Dr. J. N. Grace, Regional
Administrator, of this of fice and Mr. H. B. Tucker, Vice President, Nuclear
Production Department, Duke Power Company, in an Enforcement Conference held in
the Region II Office on January 14, 1986.
The violation described in the enclosed Notice of Violation involved a failure
to maintain adequate barriers for a portion of the protected area. The events
that resulted in this violation included a failure to install certain barriers
and a lack of review to ensure that barriers conformed to drawings. It would
appear that the inadequacy was in effect from the 1979-1980 time period until
discovered by the licensee.
In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC
Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1985), the violation described
in the enclosed Notice has been classified at a Severity Level III. Normally,
a civil penalty is proposed for a Severity Level III violation. However, after
consultation with the Director, Office of Inspection and Enforcement, I have
decided that a civil penalty will not be proposed in this case because of your
prompt identification and reporting and comprehensive response to the
identification of the problem at Oconee.
You are required to respond to this letter and should follow the instructions
specified in the enclosed Notice when preparing your response. In your response,
you should document the specific actions taken and any additional actions you
plan to prevent recurrence. After reviewing your response to this Notice,
