The violation involved failure to maintain a Unit 1 manual valve locked as required. In accordance with the ' General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2 Appendix C (1986), the violation is listed below:

Unit 1 Technical Specification 6.8.1 requires that written procedures be established, implemented, and maintained covering the activities recomended in Appendix ' A' of Regulatory Guide 1.33, November 1972.

Appendix A, Item C.5 requires procedures for the Emergency Core Cooling System.

Plant Operating Procedure 1102.01, " Plant Preheatup and Precritical Checklist," has been established in accordance with this Technical Specification requirement.
